Cultivating Pink Cheeks
If you are one of the girls who have
longed for pink cheeks while your
own have remained white and pale,
cheer up! All you need is to, take a
little rouge internally. Now, don’t be
alarmed, for it‘really Is simple and
harmless. This rouge cannot be pro-
cured at the drug store, but must be
bought at the grocery store. No. do
not telephone. Miss Stay-at-home, for
the fresh air and the walk will do you
good, and when you got there ask for
some carrots. You must be a nature
girl and eat the carrots raw. Three

Uses of Burlap.
Next to leather Itself, nothing is
more useful for covering shirt-waist
and other utility boxes than burlap.
Then, too, If the color selected har-
monizes with the color scheme of the
room, It combines beauty with useful-
ness. The edges of the box should be
finished off with linen braid of the-Col-
or of the burlap and held In place Y0
button tacks. Both the braid and the
tacks may be bought of any uphol-
sterer or In the drapery department

That This Branch of Glove Practice

The right cross-counter for the face

Let your sparring partner again lead

mpve your head to the left Instead of
to the right, and lead for Ills face sylth
your right. But bring your right arm
around outside of his arm (that Is, to
the right of It), so that ypur blow will
reach his face Instead of merely col-
liding with his outstretched left arm.
Those two counters are among the
most effective tricks In boxing, and

TREATMENT OF THE FACE.
GOOD MODEL FOR PELISSE.
To guard a right-hand leatl for the
face, raise the left arm, keeping the
elbow lower than the wrist, throwing
the forearm out and upward and turn-
ing the hand out. Try to catch the
blow on the fleshy part of the forearm;
or, when more expert, merely push
your opponent's blow outward (to your
right) by lotting his wrist or forearm
hit your right forearm, and then
throwing your arm slightly to the
rtght. In either case It Is better to
hit his wrist or forearm and throw tt
outward in parrying than to rely oa
merely stopping his glove. For in a
regular fight, he would have on no big
glove and might slip in past your
guard were you depending solely on
stopping him by means of hitting his
glove aside.
There are, of course, more Intricate
guards, such as “catching” your op-
ponent's glove in the palm of your own
and pushing it aside; or slapping his
blow aside by hitting him on wrist.

Having perfected yourself In these

blow would strike you fairly In the
middle of your perspiring countenance.
But, as the blow comes, move your
head sharply to the right and at the
same time lead for his face with your
left. Tliff result will be that his blow
will go harmlessly past your head,
and your left flat will catch him
squarely in the face. When I say
"move your head to the right" I do not
mean "turn your head sideways," but,
keeping your face still toward him,
move the whole head (just as you used
to move It In dodging * parental box
