ALTHOUGH there la a. presage of some out-of-the-ordinary or ucoutine opening of more than commonplace signiﬁcance, a‘. the same time there ls portent of con- fused or obscure thinking which could “cloud the issues" or anni- hilate exceptional chances. This rsxcellcnt opportunity for gain. pro- motion or tokens of preferment from higuh places, demands astute lppllcatlon of intelligent. sagac- lous and clevcr rationallzing and lnot mere flash-ln-the-pan analy-

sis of complications. Ilse PCStfillllt‘

Those whose birthday it is have

splendid premise .of unusual op- portunities for gain. prouiotion. prestige and popularity, especially by the cooperation of influential pcrsonages or organizations. And whilc such prospect is of more than passing signiﬁcance, there is a menace of complications, acting from over-confidence, of a. possible speculative urge. or just a reckless confusion as to the extraordinary value of major promise. Moder- ation, shrewd analysis of basic lac- ‘tors, ratlonalizlng. and not youth- ful enthusiasm or exaggeration, may win dynannlc chance.

A child born on this day has special talents. ambitions and op- portunities for progress and a spectacular career although its pro- llflc imagination. over-confidence and gambling spirit may prove its undoing.

When dyeing white slices black. try using some quick-drying black enamel paint. This often wears much better than liquid or paste dyes and doesn't rub off so easily.

Women And “Their Age

Even Most circumspect 0f Fair Sax Falsify Thelr Years

1t is a. well-known fact that. women who are models of veracltyn, and who would go to the stake rather than tell an unlruth about any- thing else in the world. will falsify their age. Why they should make such a mystery of their ages is one of the peculiarities of the feminine psychology that nobody can explain. It is just that way.

The one secret that every woman can keep is her age. The blabber who talks on and on forever as ' ceaselessly as the babbling brook always stops short of blabbing one thing, and that is how old she is. A woman will confide to you the whole story of her past life. She will tell you about her lovers. her husbands, her divorces. her children, all of her fam- ily secrets. but she will never tell you her age unless she ls under 20 or past 80. What lies between ls silence. This ls quite right. It ls nobody's business how many candles she is entitled to have on her birth- day cal-cc. Her age ls her own affair, and if shc gets any comfort lll thinking she looks a perfect 25. when anybody can see she is a good 50. Heaven knows she is entitled to it.

But why all this bother about a woman's nge? Why is ‘Pruthful Jane driven to lying about how old shc ls and tryuitg to conceal her agc. as if it were something scandalous. a blot on her escutcheon of which she is ashamed? Why is 1t more respectable to have been born in one year than it is to have been born in another.

HANDSOMER. AT ounum-aoa

0f course. the thing that makes women cling to youth with both hands and pretend to be debutantes long after they are grandmothers is the idea that youth is beautiful and charming and fascinating, and that as a woman gets older all of her attractions go into the discard. But this isn't true. Youth ls not always a woman's best time. even in looks. Many a woman at 50 or 60 is far handsomer than she was at 2o.

In her girlhood she was angular of figure, with bad features and nondescript hair. Age tilled in her hollows with flesh. Experience chiseled her features into symmetry and gave them expressiveness. Time crowned her head with silver. Many an old woman ls mad? beautiful just by the sheer goodness and sweetness tn her face.

Nor is youth always clumping. Generally it ls hard and narrow and opinionated and conceited. It has no interests except in its own. It has no conversation except its own patter. It has no background. 1:0 memories, no experiences.

The lniddle-ugctl or older woman ls more interesting than she \\"-ls as a young girl. The ycars are bound to have taught her some- thing. Life has mellowed her and ripened her and educated her and glvcu her a. syvmpathy and understanding that lnakes her far more fascinating as a companion than she was when she was sweet sixteen.

Therefore. why should women so hate their age that they lie pitt- fully about it? They only deceive themselves. But life is lull of trouble for women. and if an old sheep can get any kick out of masquerading as a spring lamb, let her have her fun. The unwritten law has ever

MOTHER BORROWS BABY'S COSMETIC

A mart mom can take advan- tage of baby's beauty routine and help herself to one of his cosmetics to improve her own skin care.

His Nlbs’ lotion, particularly if it ls richly laden with superfine emulsions o! mineral oil and lano- lin will have as softening an of- fect on his Mama's winter-weary hand as on baby's skin. Moreover. she can run her hand-softening routine in right after she flnlshn with Juniors. -

What remains on your hands af- ter Junior ls given his all-over rut down is often all that's needed for a hand-creaming Job.

Another good use to which you cm put Sonny's cosmetic is to use it for the easier blending of cheek rouge. Just. a drop of lanolin-rich lotlongugggv on n stubborn cheek rouge will induce it to spread nicely. '

Tinted make-up bus of tlu opaque cream type which looks mu heavy or streaked on the face can be thinned and the color evened up by using the merest touch of Sonny's emulsified lotion. Apply this mere touch with finger-tips.
