"I never have a minute'a rest," says another. I wonder if they, enrer-heard- of the mother who taught her children to go to church, by exercising tact and skill! It Is a etory with a moral She noticed that her neighbors children alwaya ob y Jected to church and Sunday school, al ways fought against It. So when her children grew old enough to have ob servance of "Sunday she gathered them round her and said: "I am going to let " you, as a special privilege, go to church; so long as you are good you may go every Sunday. Should you mis behave you must stay at home." Of course,' the children were crasy to go. ' They always are anxious to do things that are attractively presented, and while they were young they all ac- quired the habit of going regularly and Joyfully to church a habit none of them lost In after life. Just the same principle may be applied to children who do not do for them selves. Teach the children, as soon as. they are old enough, to button their own shoes and to fasten their own clothes. Make It something of which to be proud; make It a privilege. By thus presenting many tisks they become a pleasure instead of work. Do not tell the child she must dress, she must brush her hair; tell her she Is now old enough to atart to do things for her-, "elf. Tell her how caring for her own needs is one of the privileges of grown ups; bow glad she should be that she has arrived at such an interesting time of life. Few children, unless there be some ill ness, some lack of strength, are natural ly lasy. There is a time while they are growing-that they long to be out In the open air. They love to run and play, of course, yet they do not care to climb a flight of stairs on an errand for mother. That is not always lailness, nor does It indicate a bad disposition. It Is the nat ural, savage Instinct of the child to be out where the xn supplies health and strength to foster rapid growth, and de velopment. It is really true that children cannot be successfully driven unless they are absolutely Intimidated, and, surely, no really loving mother wants to put Tier self In the position of slave driver to ward her ctyld. : It spoils the training," spoils the disposition and ruins the ideal relation that should exist between a woman and her family. But children are very easily led. A lit tle love, a suggestion, a 'patient lesson and the result usually far exceeds the most sanguine hopes. Children are quick to learn both good and bad. Why not teach them only good? only regret it In the end. It Is very seldom I receive a question like yours. I get hundreds of Inquiries for treat ments and prescriptions to develop the bust. A small bust Is by no means con sidered a mark of beauty. -If you will write to me and date the size of your bust and your hips, also your weight. I can Judge a great deal better about what you really need. I really cannot give ycu any medicine. still others who never use' water, but always use a cleansing cream. This is carrying the idaa a little bit too far, for. a little -clean" water never hurls anybody's face. After a Jour ney, or after a particularly hot day, the , face should be cleaned with cream. This is done by rubbing the cream on the skin, and then removing It immediately with a soft piece of linen. The face may then be washed In hot and then In cold water. This process should be gone through every night without fall, and It may be re peated during the day. Cleaning the face cannot be harmful. Some 'Women vary this arrangement by washing; first In hot water, then applying the cream, then washing the face in cold water. This Is also a very good plan. In any case, let soap be avoided lo face washing. " Never use a wash rag on the face. Absorbent cotton is the very best thlngfor a cleanser, for it may after each washing be thrown away. The following Is a very good cleans ing cream: White wax. two ounces; spermaceti, two ounces; sweet a! mond oil, twelve ounces; distilled water, two ounces; glycerine, twa ounces; salicylic acid, ninety grains. , one of the an attractive Shperfluous Hair on the Arms T To Reduce the Bust Wll! you please tell me If there are any exercise, that may be taken to reduce the bust? If so.' please name them, and Also state the length of time It tnkes to 'show results. JARKIET K There are no exercises, to my knowl edge, that will reduce the bust. Time will do this of Its own accord, and you need not try to help It. for you will A Cleansing Cream is Necessary I live In a laryo city, where there Is a (rreat deal of smoke, and It seems to me I can ne'er Ret my face clean. Can you tell me at length what to do to Klve my com plexion a clean, fresh look? NAN. Many people think that soap and water are the best things to use to clean the face, but there they err, for soap Is not a good thing to use on the face; in fact, it is extremely In jurious to the skin if it Is employed oftener. than once a week at the most It dries the skin, removing all the natural oil, thus making it extremely sensitive to wind and weather, besides laying, a foundation for wrinkles in later years. There are people who, acting on this knowledge, feel that soap and water should nev-er be used, and there are Ona of Woman's Chief Charms indifference or abstraction. The per son who speaks is then obliged to raise the voice, and thus the habit of loud speaking Js often formed.? ? This is a condition likely to arise) In families where but little politeness Is observed. It seema strange that' people who love each other often fall in tle most ordinary civilised consld . eration. i - To really care for the vole on should never cry out either In pain ' ' or In anger. Such efforts forever de atroy the harmonious working ot the) vocal cords. Children should be re strained from wild shrieks when at play. . Should a young child show signs of speaking in a hoarse or disagreeable ... tone, it should at once be taken to a phyElclan, for perhaps It Is not the . fault of the baby. It may be some physical defect which skill may over come. - . SWEET voice Is chief charms of wnman. We should therefore be careful of the gift that nature has given to us and, if possible, improve it. Even coarse, shrill and harsh voices may be softened by care and study, and surely it is worth the trouble. A woman with - a peacock voice can never charm. Speak always In a low tone, but dis tinctly. Loud talking denotes 111 breeding, and sometimes shows a domineering spirit. To keep the voice at a proper tone never call from one end of the room to the other, nor frpm upstairs down, nor from any distance that necessitates bellowing. Such practices only roughen the voice and In time ruin It. There are persons who when spoken to do not at otrc9 respond, either from Advice to Correspondents OWINO to the great amount of mail received and the limited space given this department. It is absolutely impossible to answer letters In the Sunday Issue fol lowing their receipt. The letters must be answered In turn,, and this ofttlmes requires three or four weeks. All correspondents who desire an Im mediate answer must inclose a self addressed stamped envelope for a re- ply. This rule must also be complied, with In regard to personal letters. Dry Hair My scalp Is dry and my hair falls out rapidly. What can I dot It saams to be absolutely lifeless. I have never tried earthing equaT-to your c! cassias cream.

Apply this to the scaip every other Bight with a medicine dropper, and X am sure you will find great Improve ment. Needless to say, after applying; the lotion, the scalp should be thor- oughly manipulated: Glycerine, on usee; eaa de cologne, ' ene-o,uartr pint; liquid ammonia, one dram; oil f origanum, ens-half dram; ell of rosemary, one-half draaa; tincture ef caathaiides. ens -ounce.

That trouble Is now cured, but my eyelashes do not yet behave themselves properly. Can you Slve me somethln to cure the trouble T C. P. T. I am afraid that there Is nothing I can do to help you, although I much regret my inability. An oculist Is the only person whom It Is safe to con , suit, for then, you are sure not to get -anything that will injure the eyes. I should think, however, time would cure the complaint . Good Cold Cream WIl you kindly print your beat formula for cold cream? Mrs. O. a R. For plain cold cream there Is no bet ter recipe than: Expressed Juice of cucumbers, one-half pint; deodorised1 al cohol, one and one-half ounces; sweet almond oil, three and one-half ounces; shaving cream, one dram; blanched almonds, one and three-quarter drama. 1 This Is n suav lotion, very whitening, softening and cleansing.

Jit Is very dark, and shows so plainly that find It Impossible to wear short sleeves, am afraid to cut it for fear It will ru ' Ion iter, and I cannot find any Rood cream, to remove It. Have vou any? E. VAN T. It would be a great mistake to cut the hair on your arms, for it would, as you say, surely grow longer. The following Is a good depilatory, which you should use strictly accord ing to directions: Sulphide of soda or calcium sulphide. 100 grains: chalk. 100 grains. Mix thoroughly, and keep dry In well-corked bottle until want ed for use. Take enough to make a paste, and add warm water until the proper consistency is secured. Spread over the hairy surface, and allow to remain for from one to five 'minutes, according to the nature of the growth and the susceptibility of the skin; then scrape off with a b'unt blade a paper knife, for example. It should be removed If a burning sensation Is produced. Toj long contact with the skin should be avoided, and Immedi ately after the hair has been removed the denuded surface should bo gently washed with warm water and a coUl cream should be applied to prevent irritation.
