If your dental plate is as flesh-pink and the teeth as clean and natural-looking as when your dentist first fitted them then you DON'T need Sterndent." If they are dis- coloured, stained and unnatural-looking, you DO. For the sake of health, dentures should be free from germ-breeding stains. For the sake of your appearance they should be clean and natural-looking.

JOHN'S favourite "buddy”
came to tea the other day wearing glasses. He was inclined to swank about them and told us how the doctor tested his eyes on a machine. What surprised
me was his obvious comfort and his improved looks. Un- til now Tony has always, looked rather disagreeable, although I know him to be a good-tempered creature.
The only one of my nephews and nieces who wears glasses is Selinu. And she'll be able to discard them in a year or two because her eyes are being strengthened by special exercises. There was nothing wrong with Selina's eyes except laziness. Specialists are beginning to discover that some children must be taught to see and a good many eye troubles occur because eyes are not itsed.
•
E and quantity TAYES eat light The quality
of light affects them enormously. Children should sleep in darkened rooms and do their work in a good light. The light should fall on the work and not on the child himself. If furni- ture were arranged and lamps chosen there for their ftness of purpose would be much less eye strain among children... and grown ups.
Before school days is the time to take special care of young cyc. Because the child has no set "seeing tasks" there is very litle cheek on his eyesight, and the trouble may only be discovered later at school. Headaches, stupidity, unaccountable naughtiness, undue clumsiness, and what is called "a deceitful look" can all be sure signs of eye trouble.

TXERCISE is invaluable and can be practised by any child who has good sight but who is eyes. working overmuch with his Selina does her ten minutes each First day in five minute stretches. she "watches a bee" buzzing in a roll circle round her head. Her eyes slowly round in one direction and then in the other. Next she closes her eyes as tightly as possible so that her lids press against the oyeballs. and blinks them slowly three times after each shutting.
This exercise immediately relieves strain and tightness and the dell- berate blinking lubricates the eye. Hér lazy eye--she has only one-ts made to work alone while to focus her sight on details at a far distance and then to switch them suddenly to a point quite close,
In reading she is encouraged to move her book from time to time so that her eyes must alter their focus and become more flexible and accur ate. Too many of us get into the habit of a fixed distance where "we rend best." Swaying the upper part of her book like the pendulum of a downwards is the final exercise on Selina's s list. The arms should hand loosely and the whole body be re- laxed during the exercise.

Apart from more obvious reasons it is desirable that eyelashes should be long. They protect the eyes like curtains. They can be encouraged with a minulé amount of castor oil or vaseline run along the lashes themselves once a week. On no ne- count should oil or grease be put on children's eyelids.

Tulare, Cal. Eager to try out n. new outboard! motor to see how much water would "throw," Dick Pickering set it up in the bathtub at his home., 'In the cloudburst that followed, he was badly burned by the exhaust as he endeavoured to shut off the motor."
Marjorie Dunton, who does interesting things of leather, shows a saoque-like bolero of powder blue suede over a dress of black - crepe. Highly original is her applique of black fine lace around
the borders of the bolero. The matching bag fastened to the wrist is again of the light blue suede appliqued with the black lace and re-embroidered with crystal stars.
