Only said they just plain BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Your Hands Can Be Eloquent By HELEN JAMESON There js no need to tell any member of the beauty-seeking con- tingent that hands should be kept scrupulously clean, the skin surface velvety soft, and the nails in per- fect form, Every woman knows that, 3 Any woman will regard with sor- row a pair of mitts that have fallen below good-looks par. She hates to have them appear scrubby. The hard-working housewife does not to keep her hands from and worn, They must be anointed daily with a soothing and , at least once a week, lotion they should have a five-minute | massage with a heavy, cream, With hands, as with faces, ex- pression is a big item, Perhaps you on't realize that charming hand vior can be cultivated, that graceful movements and pretty po- ses are possible to any woman who 'will give a little thought to the matter. One incentive is to keep them in perfect condition. If the hands are not white and soft, one has an impulse to hide them. The hands are a8 means of com- munication, They beckon sweetly, do a come-hither, as do the eyes. With the first finger lifted, the _others curled, they threaten. They express distress when you wring them, peace and composure when they are clasped in your lap, beauit- ifully passive, fingers curled like flowe; # Then they are at the tiest. Nervous hands should be kept under control. They signify lack of poise, may develop mannerisms that mark one, Nervous fingers af- ten pick at the cuticle around the nails, Or they twist a strand of hair, even pull at an ear lobe. Some women massage the inner surfaces of their fingertips with their thumbs, keeping up a continual movement. A physician tells us that it is not to break this habit though it can be done. He explains that because of the highly developed sense of touch, the ner- ves at the fingertips are extreme- ly sensitive. If one is in a highly ands should be kept un- der control. PERE nervous state, the fingertips are in a state of irritation and unrest. He suggests frequent manicures, so there will be no hang-nails to fuss with. This will also keep the nail eaves smooth and even. Keep- ing the nails in perfect order is al- so a factor toward curing the nail- biting habit, which is disgusting and also a menace to the health. Strong, capable hands have a beauty of their own. No woman need be ashamed of hands that are large, if the knuckles have spread a bit through devotion to home and family, Inert hands that give you a cold, clammy clasp, may signify Healy lack of cordiality, but they also signify the need of fresh alr and exercise to get sluggish blood streams on the job. American Wives Vote Against ) Separate Vacations for Couples A 4 American wives are not taking any chances on the adage, "absence makes the heart grow fonder." There are, 70 per cent of them, against separate vacations for hus- bands and wives, according to a nation-wide survey. made by the 'Woman's Home and published in the magazine's May issue. Only 22 per cent of the Compan- jon's readers answered "yes to the question "Do you think husbands and wives should have separate vacations?" and about half of these added that they meant only short vacations, A little less than half also said they personally didn't like separate vacations but they thought maybe it might be a good idea. _ As against the 70 per cent who definitely wanted to tag along with hubby, and the 22 per cent who evidently think there is some stra- tegic good to be got out of a little separate vacationing, there were 8 per cent who were on the fence. These, woman-like, couldn't make up their minds because they sald each year is different as to length of vacation and how much they had seen of their husbands in any given year. Add up all these figs ures and the answer looks like a resounding wish not to let hus- band get too far out of sight. Reasons given by American wives for vacationing with their hus- bands range all the way from the fact that on vacations they have time to relax and enjoy other to the feeling that they would miss their husbands too much, that sharing - vacation experiences bring them closer together and that se- parate vacations cause couples to one per cent couldn't afford separate vacations, Of those who thought separate vacations unsafe one reader sum- med it up: "Absence doesn't mae the heart grow fonder if there is an attractive person of the oppo- site sex around. It only causes trouble," But American wives for the most part agreed that although they wanted to spend the long va- cations with their husbands, they were willing to let the old man. have a day or two off for fishing or hunting once in a while and by the same token they like to get away for a shopping spree occas- ionally.

BUNDESEN, M.D, TUMOR IN THE NOSE We do not usually think of tu- mors in connection with the nose and yet, they may arise here, just as in other parts of the body. As elsewhere, they may be cancerous or benign, that is not deadly. They may arise from blood vessels, from cartilage or from bone, Some are in nature of a cyst, that is, a membranous sac filled with water. Many of these tumors may be present for some time before they cause any symptoms. However, sooner or later they will cause blocking of the nasal passages with, at times, bleeding and some de- formity of the nose. The tumor may grow so that it fills up both sides of the nose and even extend into the sinuses or air spaces connected with the nose. ' Deciding on Treatment Before deciding upon the treat- ment to be used when such a tumor is present the doctor will usually re- move a small piece of it and ex- amine it under the microsope to de- termine what sort of growth it is. The treatment also will depend on the size, the location of the tumor and the age and general condition of the patient, A tumor that can be easily reach- ed and which is small is easily re- moved, merely by cutting it off and using the electric current to cauter- ize the place where the tumor was attached. A large tumor also may be removed by electrocoaguiation, that is, destroyed with the electric current. One of the more serious types of tumors is known as a fibroma and is made up of connective tissue like scar tissue. Such a growth may form quite a large mass not only in the nose but also in the upper part of the throat, Another type of tumor is known 4s a hemangioma and is made up of blood vessels. These tumors may affect either the inside or outside of the nose. They often produce a great deal of bleeding and blocking of the nasal passages. « Another Type Most of the cancerous-like tumors which occur in the nose extend from the sinuses or from the upper part of the throat. However, now and then one of these growths may start in the nose itself. Many such tumors can be easily eliminated if they are discovered early and treat- ed promptly. The treatment con- sists either in exposure to X-ray or the use of electrocoagulation. There are, of course, other causes of blocking of the nasal passages besides tumors, Hence, when this symptom develops it is important that a careful study be made at once by a nose and throat specialist to determine the cause of the trou- ble. The mere thought that cancer can occur in this location should prevent any delay.

Truth is, complexions improve fright along, be:ause we are learning more and more each day about wise eating habits, the benefits of the balanced diet, fresh air, outdoor exercise. Cosmetics have done their part; fragrant creams keep the epi- dermal surface smooth and soft, and the fraction necessary for their applications acts as a cleansing agent, stimulates the functions of the blood streams and the skin it- self. The Sensitive Skin Bome light-headed sisters love to harp about their delicate, sensitive skins as if they were an inheritance from g long line of distinguished ancestors. They can change condi- tions by being fussy about th: soap they use, drying the face thor- oughly after it has been washed, using a soothing emollient freely, working it well into the flesh. There are two special olasses of Your Diet Affects Your Skin FOLLETT Use a soothing cream twice a day, LJ LJ wailers, the drys and the oilies. The first. need more fat in the diet; the oilies need less, Diet has more to do with the condition of the skin than most of us realize, Also, one should drink plenty of water. Loss of sleep will devitalize the skin, cause tissues to soften, wrinkles to form. So will worry. The skin shows that slough- ing off of cuticle is going on more rapidly than it should. The cutane- ous structure is ever in a state of decay and renewal, dead scales fluffing away, new ones forming. To deter excessive cuticle-sloughing, a soothing cream should be used twice a day, at bedtime and left on, again after the morning rinsing to remain on until the time comes to decorate with cosmetic war paint. All powders are not agreeable to all skins, so select yours with care. It should be heavy enough to ad- here, not so heavy that it goes on in patches.. Remove the surplus with a powder brush. And mever, never, apply make-up to an unclean skin, Fashuon Hashes 'WE THOUGHS that a girl we know had inherited a mint. We saw her in a magnificent sling cape, cut with a scalloped effect.

Tomorrow's Activities AT ADELAIDE HOUSE Tap Dancing Over-20 Club Art Exhibit England Birthplace Of Modern Shorthand England, the birthplace of mo- dern shorthand, had watched it develop from the "brief" writing practices up through the Middle Ages into the "orthographic" or "alphabetic" systems wherein vowels were in many cases omit- ted, and silent letters, and by which Samuel Pepys' was able to keep up such a fluent commen- tary in his diary, But the story of Shorthand can- not be told without telling the story of Sir Isaac Pitman. He was born in Trowbridge in Wiltshire, England, on the fourth of Jaunary 1813 and died January 22, 1897. At the age of 81 he was knighted by Queen Victoria "for his emi nent services to stenography." And every day in parliament, in legislative assemblies, courts of law and business houses, men and women, who pause to remember are grateful that such a man pas- sed this way. Before he was sixteen he be- came interested in and took up Samuel Taylor's system of short- hand. He grew so enthusiastic about the art of phonography tuat he left the factory in which he was employed and entered a training college for teachers, With infinite labor he drew up a manual of the Taylor system and offered it in 1837 to a pub- lisher who promptly turned it down, Pitman had his own ideas in this regard for, on being turned down by the publishers, he imme- diately proffered them his own "Stenographic Sound Hand." He classified sounds of the language scientifically, and ar- ranged his material for writing accordingly. He Introduced simple expedientg of abbreviation that made for great rapidity and ace curacy, The publishing of his textbook that same year marked the beginning of a new era. In 1840 he published "Phono- graphy or Stenography," which was the means of practically ex- tinguishing the earlier systems, He was an untiring worker. He published 200 works in short- hand, ranging from the Bible and Vicar of Wakefield, etc. It 18 claimed that he first suggested the postage stamp as a convenient way to pay postage. The expert manipulation of the craft is recognized in the United States as a profession. And fol- lowers of Pitman have reached speeds varying from 220 words a minute on straight literary mat- ter to 2,804 on court testimony; and accuracy, even with high speed, greater than 99 per cent.

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN ; Dear Mrs, Beeckman: This is a problem that always perplexes me. When a woman I know socially but not well calls me on the telephone and says, "Mrs, Brown? This is Mary Clark", should I interpret this to mean that she wishes me to begin to call her by her first name? : T.T.B No. Since you and she know each other socially, it is correct for the telephoner to say, "This is Mary Clark", whether she is married or unmarried, But when you reply, you say, "Good morning (or 'How do you do'), Mrs. Clark (or 'Miss Clark') "unless you are accustomed to calling her by her first name. Suggesting "Time to Go" at the Movies Dear Mrs, Beeckman: At the movies, which is it, the girl or the man, who should suggest leaving when the répetition.point has been reached? Zella It is quite proper for the girl to say, "Shall we go?" Or if the man thinks the girl is hesitating to sug- gest going, he may whisper to her, "This is where we came in, Do you want to stay longer?" Shower Questions Dear Mrs, Beeckman: 1 am going to be maid of honor for my dearest girl friend on June 21, and I would like to plan a show- er for her, 1. Approximately when would you advise me to have the shower? 2. I, can't spend very much on the shower. What should I serve? 3. There are to be two brides- maids, Would you think it wise for the bridesmaids and myself to join in giving her one shower, or for each to give her a separate one? 4. Whom should I invite? Should the, bridegroom's parents be invit- ed? 5. What kind of shower would you suggest for this girl, since after her wedding she will not be starting housekeeping for a while and they will have only one room? 6. How soon before the shower should the invitations be sent out? A K. 1, About two weeks before the wedding date is a good time to have the shower. . . festive days, these when gala showers add to the pre- wedding excitement. ° 2, Shower refreshments are sim. ple, and it's "smart" to have them simple: small, slim sandwiches, tea and/or coffee, small cakes or cook=- 5 or slices of cake, nuts and can- dies. 3. I like the idea of having a shower given by the bridal atten. dants; this would cut down on your shower.expenses, and also leave the field open for any other group that wishes to give a shower for this bride-to-be, 4. If you and the other two atten- dants give a general shower, you might invite not only the girl's most intimate friends but also her moth. er, her sisters, and her fiance's mother and sisters. (The bride- groom's father would nob be invite ed, unless you have the shower in the evening and invite other men guests, to arrive about an hour and a half after the girls arrive for the "main event", the presentation and opening of the gifts) 6. You might give her a "personal" shower, gifts to be stockings, gloves, lingerie, handkerchiefs, and so forth. Or you might give her a lin- en shower, items which could most conveniently be stored until the fine day when she has her own home. 6. Send the invitations about ten days or two weeks before the date of the shower. TO ACKNOWLEDGE AN INTRO.
