day. Its nearly Arpril; I told him,
smiling. I could see by his looks he
knew what I meant. "I wish we
plight visit Harry the end of the
month," I went on timidly, looking
at him across the table.
He uncrossed his feet and sat up
straight in his chair. "Well, I don't
see nothing to hinder," he said, slow-
ly, "1 reckon Jim can shift for him-
self awhile. I kind of want to look
at what they have got in automobiles
and I have no objection to your go-
ing with me."
When Anson says a thing, he means
it. Anson is an awfully good man
and one whose word is as good es a a good cold cream. Massage well.
A cream which has lemon as its base
will not only soften the hands, but
also whiten thein. Then there are
special hand eaeaans to be used at
night which overcome any impurities
that the hands have come in contact
with, and lemon juice works wenelers
too. And there are bleaches that
take away redness and roughness, and
have a way of fading out freckles and
brown spots. Then there is a home-
made paste of borax and water, which
will remove the brown spots if you
only use it faithfully,
Be careful what soap you use.
Probably the use of inferior soaps
has done more to destroy the beauty
of the Mand than all the heavy work
in the world. If you are not just sure
of the soap you are using, give it up,
and use in place uncooked oatmeal or
bran. Put the oatmeal or the bran
in little cheesecloth bags, dip them
in the water, and then use them as
you would soap. You know it's the
free alkali that makes soap bad for
the human skin. Now, here's a sure
but rather disagreeable way to test
soap for alkali: Taste it. If it burns
the tip of the tongue it's a sure sign
that, no matter how good the soup
may be for household use, it's far
too strong for your skins
Here's just a little suggestion,•but
very worth -while carrying out: Be-
fore you start to do any kind of work,
such as sweeping, working about the
stove, or: cleaning, drag your nails
over a cake of soap. In this way you
will get each nail filled with the soap.
This prevents the dirt from getting
down under the nails, where it is al-
ways so difficult•to get out. Of
course, you and I know that well -
kept nails axe an indication of refine-
ment. Never let your nails grow too
long. Keep them short and rounded.
Every time you day your hands, push
back the' cuticle around the nail with
the towel. This trains it to grow
properly. In correctly cared for nails
the half-moons must show. Be care-
ful never to have your nails too
highly polished.

Unknown Warrior's Grave in
Westminster Abbey.
Unnamed, unnumbered, here he rests,
This warrior unknown;
Around him group the Empire crests,
Nor bow they there alone,
The noblest nations stood in line
In that most crucial hour;
Regarding duty as divine,
To crush the tyrant's power.
Who is this warrior unknown
Who here in glory sleeps,
While Royal mourned from the throne
With Empire round him weeps?
Their tears are mingled with the joy
That Liberty still lives;
In virtue of the noble boy
That "mother" freely gives.
In him there stands a countless list
Of Britain's valiant sons,
Of whom the Empire makes her boast
While course of Empire runs,
From north and south, from east and
west,
They came from regions far;
The noblest, at their own behest,
When blared the trump of war.
From Southern Cross to Polar Star,
Around the girdled world;
They came in millions from afar,
'Heath Britain's flag unfurled.
The world's dread tyrant there they
met
On France and Flanders field;
Nor shall that tyrant e'er forget,
For Britons never yield.
Till Truth and Liberty, unchained
From fetters, shall be free,
And Righteousness, that God ordained,
Shall dwell from sea to sea.
Now rest, ye brave, in glory here,
With Britain's mighty dead;
Free from the haughty tyrant's fear,
While laurels crown your head.
Proposals by Hair.
A correspbndent who recently re-
turned from Jap n says it is leap -year
alI the time i.n iat country.
Japanese women have certain ways
of arranging their hair to indicate
their feelings and do not wear hats.
Girls wito wish to wed arrange the
hair in front in the form of a fan or
butterfly and adorn it with silver or
colored ornaments.
Widows who are looking for second
husbands fasten their hair at the back
of the bead by means of tortoiseshell
pine, and widows who are determined
to, remain faithful to their departed
spouses cut thler hair short.

Feeding Schedule for Child.
Experts in Horne Economics have
worked out the accompanying f our -
hour feeding schedule for an active
child from three to five years old.
It is worth studying.'
If the child is over weight, reduce
the starchy food's slightly. Over-
weight, up to a certain point, is not,
a serious condition.

Food and quantity:
Orange --3i.
Oatmeal -1 cupful cooked.
Milk, for cereal and beverage-1glass.
Toast, buttered -1 slice.
Dinner.
Egg -1 soft cooked.
Potato and butter -1k cupful mash-
ed.
Spinach—Ye cupful.
Bread; buttered -1 slice.
Apple tapioca pudding, small por-
tion.
Lunch in Afternoon,
Milk -1 glass.
Crackers -2 Graham.
Supper. -
Milk toast—bread, 1 slice; milk, 1
glass.
Prune pulp --5 to 6 medium-size'
prunes.
Sugar -1 tablespoonful.
Cookie -1 small.
Breakfast.
Prunes -6.
Cream of wheat -2-3 cupful.
Milk, for cereal and beverage -1
glass.

This schedule is only suggestive,
but it is a better guide than the hit-
or-miss plan too often indulged in by
parents.
Bags That Are New.
If you want a plain .beg for every -i+
day use, or a bag for dress -up or partyf
occasions, you won't have a bit of
trouble this year. There is no end
to the variety of the new bags.
There are sturdy, good-looking ones
made of tooled leather. The newest
shape is the box, and many of thein
are fitted, sometimes with just 'a
purse and a mirror, and then again
with a little set of nranjeure articles.
There are levely soft bags made
of -duvet -era and decorated with steel
beads. The smart idea is to have
the duvetyn bag match the color of
your top coat or your suit. And there
are bags entirely of wooden beads, in
such color combinations as deep bine
and orange, red and cream -white, dark
gray and lavender, and other bags of
beads that are very fiat and shiny,
and are woven in brocade' designs.
At a distance these very new beaded
bags give the appearance of metal
brocade. flags of Bohemian straw
are new. The straw is dyed in won-
derful colors, and then woven to form
the bags, which come in the regula-
tion shapes. Bags that fool you are
new too. They look 'like little Dutch
silver powder boxes when you see
them lying on the counter. But
there's et little handle in the middle
of the leox, and when you discover
that and pick the box up, you flrod it
is merely a deep top to a silk or vel-
vet bag. The feather bags are just.

the coming of peaoe into a plane of
work and Wyllie pleasure,
Midway between Ypres and Armen-
tieres, writes a epeeial oorrespondent
in The iViorning Post, stretches a ridge
Ifamous in the history of the. war.
Messines, on its southern spur, domin-
ates a wide reach of the valley of the
Lys, and about two miles to, the north-
west Wytschaete, set .on the litkhest
part of the ridge, loops down on the
ruins of old Ypres and the bright
roofs of the new. 'Westward the blue -
gray hills of Flanders, with Kenimei
and Scherpenberg in front, rise high
above Wytscliaete, and to the north-
east are seen dill 60 (the Cote des
Amants) and the heights of "Clapham
Junction" and Pltsohendaele. I. pass-
ed from Ypres through the Lille gate
and took.'tho long road to Messings
by • Shrapnel Corner, Dickebusli, La
Clytte, Locre and Kennel Hill. At
the Cafe Beige crossroads, as I read on
a board, "Ali waste lengthens the
war," I heard:a terrific explosion that
made pie jumpand•the dogs bark It
was only the bursting of an old alma

Kemmel area, A few yards froni,,this
spot a most artistic cottage with green
shutters and outhouses carie into

old beams filled in with time -stained
bricks and timber. But the main,
charm of the buildings lay in their
outlines, which rose and fell like sad,
gay notes in a quaint folksong.
Loved the English Soldiers.
From the banks of Dickebush Lake
I looked across the reed -scarred water
to Kemmel Hill, a western Fujiyama,
silver -capped with sun ehino. On the
right the village sprawled' gayly in
red, blue and green, accentuated here
and there by the drab and buff tones
of wooden cottages. One woman told
me. how much the inhabitants loved
the English Soldiers, who were so long
stationed in the ne_ghborhocd, and the
old dame of the Au Risquoiis-Tout
Tavern, while admitting that it was
very snug, said, ruefully: "But it cost
5,000 fraucs." A gill (perhaps the
teacher) said "Bon jour" as she taint-
ed the windows of the trim school-
hous;•e; and at La Clytte, where o
armies helped to stop the last onus
of the Germans in 191S, I saw a school-'
wholly different in character ane con-
struction. It consisted of several
caravans formed into a square, each
bearing the legend, "Ecole Menagere
Agricole de l'Etat." Tne purpose of
these perambulating schools is to take
children around the country M. ,
summer -months and instruct te: 1
agricultural matters and houselteep-'
ing. From the hygienic standpoint,'
also, this scheme is highly beneficial,
as the healthy, happy faces of the
youngsters prove.
From La CIytte I followed the road
skirting the precipitous western flank
of Scherpenberg, past Hycle Park

growing again under the shell -shat- .
tered head of Mont Rogue, thence to
Messines, There were -signs of pro-
gress on every. laud. Men were hard
at work leveling the torn soil and
plows were busy on the lower slopes
of Kemmel Hill. The Xeres-Warneton
tram -line, which at present stops at
Kemmel village, will soon be running
along the top of the alessines-Wyt_

grown in abundance and huntsmen
brought custom to all in the season.
The villagers and field workersare
not downhearted, They enjoy pro-

cause it comes only once a week, and
if at times the young girls find life
somewhat triste (many flowers have

whole, they are wonderfully liappee

Restoring Salient Roads.
Which Was Crusoe's Island?
There is a report that the Chilean
Government is about to make Robin-
son Crusoe's island into a 'national
park and tourist resort.
But to what island does this report
refer? To the island of Juan Fernan-
des situated off the least of Chili,
somewhere about 83 degrees south
latitude?
But is this Robinson Crusoe's is-
land? It is Alexander Selkirk's island,
and that famous Scottish saitorman,
the subject of an essay by Addison,
and of a poem—"I am monarch of all
I survey" --by Cowper, was ungues-
tionably the prototype in fact, of -his
far more famous fictional sucoessov,
Robinson Crusoe.
Defoe, though not a travelled man,
had a constructive imagination of the
first order. He was ignorant of the
position of Juan Fernandez, the island
upon which Selkirk had been maroon-
ed' for four years and four months,
and whose adventures Defoe had read
in the "Spectator."
What can easily be determined, by
the most casual re -heading of the great
romance, is that Juan Fernandez,
though Selkirk's island, m not ;Cru-
soe's.
Defoe was nailing if not exact. His
"Diary of the Great Plague of Lon-
don," although pure fiction, would de-
ceive the very elect. Robinson Cru-
soe, in telling his story, misses no de-
tail of iatitade and longitude, and he
not only gives us a fair idea of the
size of his island, but states that it
was near the mout' of the River Ori-
noco, about latitude 12 degrees 18 min=
utes north.
Even if this had not been stated
plainly, the fact that the ship, upon
which Crusoe was a supercargo, was
setting out on a slaving expedition
from .Brazil to the west coast of 1
Africa, and was blown by a tornado
out of its coarse towards the West
Indies, would of itself rule out Juan
Fernandes by thousands. of ..silesi
There is only one 1, 'and which, by
size and position, answer's to Defoe's
requirements. Thi. is the island of
Tobago, about twenty-four' miles north-
east of Trinidad. It is one of the
Windward Islands, and, as is fitting, is
