IIEAUTY FOODS
ASIDK from the question of which
foods make for fat or for slen
ilerness. Is the question of which foods
make for lienuty. Certain fruits and
vegetables do hnve a direct effect upon
the looks, and the woman who Is try
ing lo Improve herself would do well
io use them frequently In her diet.
Much of Your Beauty Depends Upon
Your Food.
Any food containing olive oil Is
usually good for the complexion.
Olive oil Itself Is splendid for the
complexion, but It will make fat nnd
must be avoided by women who do
not wish to gain. Tho young women
of Italy have wonderful skins, In
deed, they ure world famous for tho
soft, creamy tint of their skins.
Three things, olive nil, wine nnd
gnrllc, nro used more thnn nny other
foods In their diet. The oil brings
flesh, the wine makes blood, tho gnr
llc nets us a general cleanser for the
system.

In North Australia there are certain
ci.tj ul tinl tribes who mnke a practice
of eating their slain friends, but not
il.clr enemies.
Olive oil can be Included In any
diet, the pleasant , way being as
mayonnaise upon salad. Wine Is not
possible In every state and no one
with an American taste would eat
gnrllc. Cut an occasional dish of
smnll onions, creamed or stewed, will
make an excellent substitute. Car
rots are nlso beauty foods; thpy en
rich the blood nnd purify it. Spinach
Is good for the complexion, for It
purities the blood. Apples tone up
the whole system, orange Juice Is
laxative nnd grapefruit has a health

HOW DO YOU SAY IT?
By C N. Lurie
Common Errors in English and
ilow to Avoia i nem
"THEM," AS AN ADJECTIVE.
TIIE use of such expressions as "1
saw them boys there," Is, of
course, one of which persons who ex
erclse even a moderate degree of "an
In speaking, would not be guilty. Yet
the use of "them" us an adjective .i
not limited by nny means to thosi
who . nre uneducated or careless ii
other respects. I'erhapa this Is due
ns are so many other examples of in
elegant or faulty speech, to the effect
of constant repetition. A person o
education hears others employ the ex
presslon, "them boys," or "thosi
kind," nnd slmllnr ungrnmtnatlcal ex
presslons, nnd falls unconsciously in
to the snme errors. . !
"Them" is n pronoun, third person
plural, objective case form of "they."
nnd should never be employed ns at
adjective, before a noun, Instead o
"those" or "these." Therefore, "I sav
them boys," nnd similar expressions
should bo "I saw thoso boys, or "1
saw these boys," etc.

EMPHASIS ON ITEALTII
YOUK economic success Is largely a
matter of good heulth; this fact
Is being recognized today as It never
wns before. No one can do good work
and be out of sorts. Any serious or
prolonged illness Is a drain on your
earning power and an Increase In your
expense account.
"Keep Well" is a slogan you might
Just us well adopt at once, and then
live up to. For very largely it is in
your own hands whether or not you
shall be In good heulth.
No woman should work at a Job that
Is hftrtlng her. No question of high
sulary will pay her for such reckless
ness. There are Jobs a man can do
with no harm, but not a woman. Let
her leave such work alone.
There ure rules of hygiene, as es
cellent ns they nre simple, which It Is
up to you to Il w and understand.
Vou must h? propt-rl) fed, properly
rested, kept clean and unciogged.
Don't fill yourself with patent medi
cines. If you are HI see the best doc
tor you can get nnd do what ho tells
you. If you have any reason to fear
that you are not In good condition go
to a reputable man or to n hospital
for a complete physical examination.
Don't put. this off becuuse. you ure busy
or fear the expense.
Put your emphasis on -.en 1 1 h. Don't
fool with n good constitution simply
because you ure blessed with one. If
your work Is trying, treat yourself
during your rest time with consider
ation, give the machine a chance t re
cuperate, or change your Job.

THE WOODS
BY DOUGLAS MALLOCH
MARCH.
IN what a travail Is our Springtime
born !
'Mid leaden skies and garmenture
of gloom.
Wild waves of cloud the drifting
sturs consume.
And shlpless seas of heaven greet the
morn.
The forest trees stand sad and tempest-torn.
Memorials of Summer's ended
bloom ;
For unto March, the sister most for
lorn, No roses come her pathway to
Illume.
fet 'tis the month the Winter north
ward flies
With one last trumpeting of savage
might.
Now stirs the earth of green that un
derlies This other earth enwrapped In garb
of white.
And while poor March, grown weary,
droops and dies
Tho little Springtime opens wide Its
eyes.
