Education Is a Process That Must Continue Through y i. One Skin Bleach Easily Made at Home By Josephine Huddleston. OME women prefer a home- H made bleach for their skin, other prefer bleach that conies all ready prepared, but one and all crave a clear, white skin. Today's ar ticlo is about a homemade bleach that comes from the farming c o m m unities of the Middle West. Don't be highhat about it though. Just ..i-iCJ because it josephine d;dnt. or,in- MUODLESTON "city It's a good bleach. You know those , Middle Western women are hard . to fool and many of their own beauty secrets are well worth the additional effort that all homemade remedies require. This bleaching method needs corn-meal- and buttermilk made Into a crvumy paste, which Is applied to the parts of the skin to be bleached ... and it works .... beautifully! To one cupful of yellow corn meat add sufficient buttermilk to make a creamy paste and then let this mix ture stand. Wnsh with soap and water the parts that are to be bleached. Rinse oft all trace of soap then, without drying the skin, smooth over a generous amount of the corn meal paste. If It Is the arms you wish to bleach wind a bit of bandage guuze about them after applying the cornmeal paste. Keep this bandage moistened with buttermilk for half an hour. . then let It dry out naturally. Remove the bandages, remove the paste by moistening It again. wa5h the arms with clear water, massage a sooth Ing skin lotion Into them and that is that. Usually quite noticeable bleaching results are seen after one treatment, but In cases of severe tan or very dark skin the treatment needs to be repeated, once each day. for a week or ten days. The same routine Is followed for bleaching the face and neck. How ever, you probably will find a large piece of gauze more convenient than bandages for covering the face. Fold the gauze into several thicknesses so that it doesn't dry out so quickly and then lay It over the face after applying the corn meal pack. Ten minutes is long enough to leave the pack on the face at one time, but It can be left on the neck for half an hour without serious In convenience. Also, you'll find . the bandage gauze -easier for the neck treatment than a folded piece of gauze. In bleaching the hands It Is quite: simple to just make a mash or paste of the (tornmeal and buttermilk and hold the hands In It for fifteen or twenty minutes. And. whatever else you do, don't forget to rinse off all the commeai carefully, and then apply the skin lotion. You may use cold cream In stead If you wish. Alone at Last! By Fanny Darrell FAR from the madding crowd far from the glances of un welcome intruders the lovers have found their retreat. With the friendly moon for cheer, and the trees for shelter, t they are content to remain forever, basking In the warmth of each other's love, reveling in the glory of each other's confidence. Alone at last! Free at last! Free to gaze into each other's eyes and read the message of hope and faith and joy there writ ten. For here, at last, can love's young dream flower into fulfill ment Here the shy young Romeo gains courage to speak the lovely truth. Beneath the benevolent moon he does not fear re buff. And the pretty loved one she too, throws olT the cloak of shyness in this wilderness retreat She stretches forth her (lower like hand and beckons Cupid near. She rests her head so tender ly upon her lover's breast, and sighs in paceful tranquillity. For here at last, alone at last, are two at last who will some day be one.

BroicnetL Preventing Bad Effects of Arthritis A Fashion Model's Diary By GRACE THORNCLIFFE She Discusses Some of the Newest Negligees. TfN glancing over my diary. I no-f I tlce that 1 haven't written any- thing about negligees for an age. Which will Immediately be recti fied because several that we've sold lately have been most decidedly worthy of description. One was done in turquoise sheer Telvet. It had two flowing cape sleeves attached down the sides, giv ing flowing fullness to an otherwise plain wrap-arouna. a rorai satin lining and cream lace punctuated with a rosebud trim, completed It. It is beautiful and practical too. a combination which some negligees Completely nfglect. There Is also a negligee arrange ment which fastens a cape on to long, rather snugly fitted sleeves. This model is being shown In pow der blue pussywillow, lined and trimmed with peach satin. Soft and lovely. i Another satin model features a back panel that floats away from the shoulders to become attached to the wrap at its hem. It Is lined with a contrasting color. Separate negligees, however, are not favored quite aa much as the pa Jama ensembles. These add a three-quarter or seven-eighth coat of Bflf material (sometimes of contrast ing material with self fabric piping) to lounging pajamas. They are very smart and comfortable. Mules nre still ostrich feather trimmed sometimes completely hid den under feathers1 but there are simpler ones for the less frivolous that sponsor satin flower arrange nients and dainty embroideries. I don't know if I have written be fore of the mules that are held in flace by a tiny strap over the heel, n the Intest models these straps are attached to the mule with Insets of eiaatin, ma King them most easy to lip Into and very comfortable.

I am not impressed with the various forms of massage and manipulation applied in some instances. While massage may be useful, there is no doubt that if severe manipulation is used, especially by an untrained person, great harm may result In the acute stage, particularly, such treatment is dangerous. On the other hand, after the acute symp toms have disappeared, it is important to exer cise and move the joints. They must not be per mitted to remain motionless. If they are allowed to become fixed, the joints will become perma nently stiffened and bent Into uncomfortable positions.

HOME -MAKING HELPS By WANDA BARTON How About a "Be-Good-to-Your-Feet" Week? THE weeks are fast belnt taken' up for vsrtous celebrations of more or less benefit to the rare, so we decided to grab one for our own use. That Is tor the feet. Good, kindly and willing feet overworked and poorly cared for as a rule. Look down upon your own feet now and oonslder what you have left undone for their comfort and well-being, and the abuses you have heaped upon them and promise better things for the future. t Warm weather Is hard on the best cared for foet: misery for those not well cared for. One point we can settle Immediately, and that Is the chiropodist Is, not an extravagance but a blessing, and should be visited once In sis woeks or two months, oftener If the feet are specially trou blesome. We seldom stop to think that our bodily conditions are re flected In the feet If the system has more acid than it should have the feet are apt to show signs of rheumatism, the naJIs may thicken and the feet puff and burn. We blame the condition on shoes, stock ings or standing too much. An au thority on the subject would explain the matter and show us ways of alleviating the difficulty. Corns and other blemishes are due to different causes. Most of them If met correctly, can be mitigated or cured entirety. Standing on our feet, walking freely, dancing and getting about the house, shop or factory, re quires normal healthy toot condi tions. We can help and preserve the right conditions by having ex pert advice and attention frequently and by our own dally ministrations. The morning hath ahould be followed by a quick massage with a comfort ing powder, flower of sulphur If the feet perspire, lacapodlum If they burn, or Just the ordinary talcum If they are not troublesome. At night the luke warm footbath will be a comfort with a little bak ing soda In It. If the day has been warm and the feet busy. Follow the bath with a light rub with any of the cooling lotions or creams that come for the purpose and a dusting of powder. It Is wonderful what such care will do for the well-being of the normal foot. Stockings should fit the feet easily, not too large or not In any way tight Some find silk unpleasant to wear and prefer a lisle thread or light cotton, a matter for each one to decide after a trial for themselves. The atocklngs ought to be changed dally. If fragile allk Is worn lay the stocking feet Into a box of comment a day, then wear them a second day without laundering If desired. After laundering always rub the dry stock. Ing through the hands to soften the fibers before putting II on the foot. MIND NOT MERELY GRANARY OF FACT Trained .

Story ol Steailatt Woman. Marion Morton Exhibit Her Secret "Fortune" to Madge, Exacting a Pledge. FROM my early childhood the Idea of a secret compartment In a box, or a hlddea sliding panel In a wall has intrigued me. I know thai I am not alone In this that thousands of people with ro mantlo Imagination., ahare my Ilk. Ing, even though they feel con. strained, as I do. to nide their feeling from their harder.headed rela Uva and frienda. But there was no need to oonoeai my Interest from Marlon as she pressed the hidden epiing which threw open the bottom of her dead grandmother's old sandalwood boi and disclosed ths secret comMUt ment beneath. Her . fingers were trembling, her faoe aglow, and realised that bar excitement was far greater than mine. I tried to call my common sense to my aid and to tall myself that the long envelopes orowded Into the bot tom of the bbs held only the flnan. dally worthless letters and keep, aakes of an old woman long dead. But I oould not banish the eerie Impression which' Marlon's recital of her grandmother's Injunction had Just mads upon me. It whs ths mamt fantastlo Idea possible, that Tom Morton, who had died practically a bankrupt, should have entrusted any "fortune" to his aged, almost senile mother, to be kept until the girl was eighteen, yet my Imagination kept dallying with It aa Marlon lifted the envelopes from the bottom of the bos and laid them In my lap. "I want you to look at these. Auntls Madge," she said with an at tempt at being buslnesa-llke which was prettily amusing. "Then we can chnnk up on them when we open the box again, or you can, If any thing should happen to me." With the consciousness that my excltemsnt was as childish as Ma rlon's, I ploked up ths envelopes and si.-anned them casnfully. They were three In number, strong, and sealed in several places with sprawling blobs of red wax. On each was writ ten In the tremulous ohlrography of an old and ailing parsont Tor Marlon Morton when she shall have reached the age of eighteen years. Not to be opened until then, or In the event of her decease, by her nearest heir." I had a sudden vision of the heart broken old woman who had scrawled thoae words for ths grandchild she Idolised. Tom Mhrton had caused his old mother much sorrow, and his death had left her penniless, Lillian had cared for her tenderly until her death, and I knew that the old wom an's heart had held loving gratitude lor her daughter.ln-Iaw. ret with the perversity which Is so often a if mootnltanl of mother love, she had Ignored her son's wlfs In this legacy and laid the eerie Injunction uiain a liny girl, for Marlon had UMn lust poet her babyhood when ber grand mother died. With a huraaalng sense that I, ton. was being disloyal to Lillian, al though I knew that my friend would aanotkm my course if I were free to tell her of It, I handed the envelope, back to Marlon, "I shall remember that there are three of them, and the Inscription on each," I told her with the gravity whlnh I knew ahs espeoted from me. "Thank , you. Now I feel safe about them," shs said, laying the en velopes hack In the secret compart ment of the box, and closing the panels which formed the bottom of II "Reef she snld, holding It out to me, "the two parts are so cunningly Joined that you cannot tell where the line la." "It Is a marvelous piece of work." I agre.d. "so purfeot that I am sure you would run no risk of anyone's discovering the secret, tf you loft the bos looked In your ecdar chest In your own room as you have done before," "Mr. Underwood hadn't come back, than," Lillian's young daughter re turned obstlnstely. "It's been n In bualneaa to ferret out secrets. I won't feel easy a minute unless It's In your tara, where ne wui nave no chsnoe ven to see It." Hhe put her grandmother's Jeweled trinkets bark In the top tray, locked the bos ind put the key In an en velope wnlch she senled. Then sho brought out from her oloset a strong pustolionrd carton which she evi dently hsd procured for this specific purpose, and Into whlnh she put the box and the envelope holding the key. When she had securely tied the carton and written "Marlon Mor ton" on the outside of It. shs gravely handed It to me. "I'm trusting my fortune' to you, Auntie Madge," ah said with an attempt at mockery. But though I smiled at her as though approbating her Jest, I knew that In optimistic girlish fashion she was cherishing romsntlo visions of what she would dlacovor when her eighteenth birth day should warrant her opening the mysterious envelopes.
