According to Alma Rubens, fea tured with Lionel Barrymore in Cos mopolitan's picturization of Vicente Blasco Ibanez's story. “Enemies of Women,” the American woman is far more beautiful of face, form and even feet than the French woman. But the French woman is more beautiful from neck to hips than her American rival. According to Miss Rubens. the French women are gorgeously smart and possessed of wonderful bodies from the shoulders to the hips The body lines suipuss the snipe lines In our native femininity, and right here Miss Rubens cites the* reason Our girls have a modest little habit of binding in their torsos, fastening, pulling, pinning—until tluir figures attain that straight up and down look of boys’. It is a fashion suited to the popular sport clothes of the flap per It is a figure that furnished a flat, non skid surface for the drap ping of the sprightly sport scarf. But — with maturity, it is also re sponsible for the womanhood too fro quently larking the most beautiful curves of the feminine figur- It is this particular difference between American and French figures that is the rub when an American steps into a French frock, according to Miss Rubens. It is like encasing the vig orous boy of the hou*e in ais’s new georgette gown—wraihy w . inkles where there should he purring pleats —'pT^-try on oaf meal.

Hay by tin;* learn somethin* new; Tb'ua v ill wisdom enm<» to you —Old Moiliei Naim*. People of the Green Forest and i he Green Meadow's soon forget | troubles that are past. Boxer, the young Bear who had started out into the Great World for himself, wisely heeded the warning of Mother Bent to Keep away from that part of the Green Forest where her home was, and not seeing or hearing anything more of the three little cubs, which, as you know, were Boxer's little brother and two little sinters, h*’ soon forgot all about them. There was plenty to do, ami as tho weather grew warmer there were new and interesting discoveries to he made every day. Boxer was en joying life. Now and then he met his father, great, big Busier Bear. 1 Boxer had the greatest respect for him end always took care never to offend him. Altogether, they were on very good terms. Boxer was continually finding new I things to eat. It was great fun to explore tiie Green Forest. All the lime ho was growing bigger and stronger and more and more inde pendent. And all the timo he was growing wiser. He sometimes did foolish things, but when he had mice learned a lesson ho never forgot it. Now all this time Mother Beat's ■triplets had been growing and learn ing. Though still very small, they were big enough now to follow her about while sne hunted for food. Usually they kept close to her heels. When she wanted to get rid of tliPtn lor a while she would send them up a tree and tell them to stay there. They didn't miss this. t There was nothing they liked better than climb ing about in a tree. They used to have great times together, playing with each other among the branches. One day Mother Bear had led them further from their old home than usual. She had sent them up ill a big hemlock tree and then had gone off a short distance to pull over okl stumps in search of ants. You know Mother Bear, like Bears, t* very fond of ants. The triplets wet* feeling very full of life that morn ing and were as lively as only three little cubs can be. They chased each other about in the branches of that Hf*„ l!o\er sat down and watelied them, and as he nafrhed some of his old angrr and jealousy re turned. I>ig hemlock tree, and did their best to knock each other off. Non-, it happened that Boxer ratne along that nay shortly after the ■ ubs had been sent up In that I re#. I In had nothing in particular on hie mind. He was just roaming about. Ha was atari led by a noise off at ' u» side Instantly he stopped to listen There nas a great thrashing about among the branches of a cer tain log tree. Now and then there was the snapping of broken twigs, and dead branches. Boxer haeouie curious. Very care fully and silently he stole forward until he could see up in that tree learly. Three funny lit I le black forms were crambling about tip in that tree. They were having no end of tun. Boxer recogniz'd them at once. They were three little cubs whom he had almost forgotten. Boxer sat down nd watched them, and as he watched and watched some of his old anger and Jealousy returned. Copyright. The next story: "Boxer Decides to Bet Even."
