ANNOYING AGE
IN CHILD 2EN
(By Dr. Louis E. Bisch)
(Eminent Psychologist)
There comes an age when children
'are especially troublesome and annoy-
ing, 'Usually this occurs about the
age of eight, although it may appear
a few years earlier or later. Prior to
that time the little girl's biggest and
most beautiful doll typifies her moth-
er; the general at the head of a col

boy's mind with his father. Whole-
hearted as this parental admiration is,
broadening experience gives the child
-new standards by which to judge.
Before long they are dispassi+: nate-

profession as law, when other glitter -1
ing, uniformed walks of life are open
to him. This is about the way child-
ren's minds work at this age. Both I
children are worried. The prestige of
their respective fathers is tarnished.
The father idol -and the mother too,
due to other similar causes and cir-
cumstances, are beginning to totter
on their respective pedestals.
This makes children feel a sort of
resentment towards their parents.
Therefore they put embarassing ques-
tions -preferably before strangers -
and give "back talk." They learn a
new fact at school and come home
primed to trip their parents into a.
confession of ignorance. But all these
annoyances which parents have to put
up with are healthy signs. The child
is beginning 'n to stand on its own feet,
g g
to develop an independence of thought
which in later years will blossom
forth as an ability to face the world.

That was a long time before any-

beauty articles, but the picture has al-
ways stayed in my mind. And no-
thing I've learned since becoming a
beauty columnist has led me to be-
lieve that Aunt Susan's advice was
wrong.
Cold water or ice is a marvelous
astringent, and it is the constant use
of astringents that keep the muscles
firm and the skin glowing with life
and vitality.

foundation to build upon, the outward
remedies are of no value.
If you use ice, apply a light coat-
ing of cold cream or nourishing cream
to the skin first, especially if the ice
seems to dry out the skin a little.
Pat gently so that the delicate

cold' water or ice or both together,
will' stimulate the muscles and tissues,
invigorating them into renewed acti-

of the face to droop and the skin to

A CHRISTIAN SOLUTIONS RE-
VIEW.
Our quarter's lessbns have intro-
duced a large number of important
problems which are vital to -day, and
have indicated the Christian solution
of each. It will be well in the older
classes to review these fundamental
topics, each being assigned to a dif-
ferent student for discussion. 'Here
is a suggested list.
Lesson 1. What features should be
included in 'an ideal education?
Lesson 2. How far should we go
in ' opposition to bigotry?
Lesson 3. How can we know when
one is "soundly converted?"
Lesson 4. To what extent should
every Christian preach Christianity?
Lesson 5. Who should go to the
foreign mission fields?
Lesson 6. What, is the missionary
and may need part or the whole of spirit?

face down on the table, mixing them differences?
Lesson 8. How can one know
whether one is divinely led or not?
Lesson 9, How can we obtain peace
ani confidence for times of difficulty
and danger?
Lesson 10. What should be the
Christian's attitude toward the Bible?
Lesson 11. What harm conies to the
ehurch froth jealousy?
Lesson 12. How far may we wisely
go in order to keep the church united?
For this review, nti*Mich is suited to
older classes, a series of essays will
be written each describing a differ-
ent type of Christian who has been
encountered in our lessons. Ths
some one will write an account of
"The 'GenerousChristian"(Bar .

Mark); "The Well -Educated Chris-
