¥ FRIDAY, APRIL >, 1948 \ D7 Ld THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Curves Are in Style By HELEN JAMESON It.is well worth while for plum- pies to slimmer down, and for skinnies to take oh curves. Indi- viduals of narmal weight are the of insurance companies. They ive longer, have more resistance to certain illnesses than those who are undernourished or who have . a crush on the bathroom scales. With fashion blessing wide shoulders and bosomy bodices, the lightweight is not as pleased with herself as'she might be. Present figure ideals ate a far cry from the prehistoric period of the boy- ish shape and skin-tight brassiere. Then the curvaceous girls gather- ed around the reedy one, looked envious, declared "Oh, if I were only #s thin as you are." Bones were priceless. The more angles you displayed the more beautiful you were considered to be. Only the senior members of our beauty class will recall those not-so-good old days. The reducing diet was the common fare of all the sisters. Thin girls are usually the vie- tims of unhealthy eating habits. Pickles and lettuce -- all foods of that character -- seem to appeal to them. They get goose flesh at sight of the lamb chop or the dish of hot cereal of which their ema- ciated frames are in sore need. They are usually nervous and highly energized; they quickly burn up the limited number of calories they consume each day. A healthy girl finds it easier to gain weight than to lose it. There must be enough moderaté exercise out of doors to create a normal appetite. Social activities should slow up. Eight hours of sleep ev- ery night are essential. Mental health is important, An inclina- tion to worry interferes with nu- trition. More fats, starches and sweets should be added to the diet, since they build adipose tissue. A quart of milk a day will work wonders in putting on curves. Milk contains calcium, protein, many other food elements that are necessaryefor well-being, Cocoa or chocolate should be substituted for tea and coffee. A maintenance breakfast is what A healthy girl finds it easier to gain weight than to lose it. > Pp the doctor will order, despite the protests of Miss Slim. She shéuld have fruit, a cereal, an egg or two slices of bacon, and a beverage. It is a long time since dinner the night before. The digestive motors are in need of fuel. Substitute mayonnaise for French dressing on salads. Dates, figs, bananas and nuts are fatten- ing. The girl with the finicky appe- tite may find that she can ge 'away with four or five small meals, instead of the regular man-sized three. At any rate, she should have a bowl of crackers and milk at bed- time. Sunshine is her good friend; it will fill her full of pep, promote a sense of well-being. Rest and relaxation will help to put fat on her ribs. ° 'Colder Fragrances' Suitable By MARILYN LAMBORN Canadian Press Staff Writer . Toronto -- (CP) -- Woman's snif. fing ability has to be sharpened by education of the olfactory nerves, if she is going to sail into society scenting her best.' So says Francois de Roussy de Sales of Paris who, as representa. tive of a world-wide perfume firm, believes women's olfactory sense should ke as highly developed as sight: ° Mr. de Sales objects to perfumers who suggest that women should wear the perfume representing the type they want to achieve. Rather, they should choose a scent to suit their personality and appearance and stop trying to be the delicately exotic person they dream of becon. ing. Out of 15 fragrances developed through' years of research, the firm imported only six of the "colder fragrances," not because Canadian women are cold, but because they are the "northern type" who should smell more of honeyhuckle than orchids." A young girl with a fresh complex. ion, blonde hair and blue eyes will choose a light, floral perfume rather than age herself with a heavy, sul. try and spicy odor," he explained, On the other hand, an older, more sophisticated woman with. a south. ern complexion represents the op- posite extreme, and wowld choose a scent heavy with' musk, jasmin, tropical flowers and amber. But if the woman has passed the sophisticated stage into a delicate, white-haired beauty, she should again revert to lilacs and rose petals. . Any woman should use a light perfume on a summer dress, while in the winter she should spray her fur coat with a heavy animal.like odor, : ) Other factors such as the occa sion, the time of day, personality and physical type -should be con. .

Mr. de Sales astonished many women at a press conference by suggesting that they should wear a light perfume rather than the heav. ier scent they preferred. The gals were prepared to be insulted, but instead Mr. de Sales said the floral fragrance brought out their inate "freshness and youth." The girls loved it: Economical Quilt Old-fashioned comfort!

Acute inflammatoin of the liver can be rapidly fatal, Thus, in either case, adequate treat- ment i8 of the first importance. One of the prime requiréments in such treatmient is rest,' and plenty of it. The other is food. Back to Health It is literally true that patients with liver disease can eat their way back to health. Indeed, according to Drs. Jones and Volwiler of the Harvard Medical School, they must do so, if they are to get well at all, In other words, the giving of ine jections, containing sugar and vita- min preparations will not suffice, It may be that these will be needed, too, in certain cases, but they will not take the place of food. This is because the liver takes part in so many vital processes that its need for raw materials is great. These can only be supplied in their en- tirety by a well-balanced diet con- taining an abundant variety of proteins, starches, sugars and vita- mins, The patient should have from 20 to 25 calories and from 3% to 1 gram of protein for each pound of body weight, Calories refer to the heat value of food and for the liver patient the getting of these calor- ies may be the chief problem. Fats supply about twice as many calor- jes per unit of weight as do pro- teins, starches and sugars, but fat must be reduced or eliminated en- tirely from the diet of a person with liver disease. Thus, he must not only eat more of the other kinds of food, but he is likely to find them unpalatable because, fats do add to the tastiness of food. Through a Tube If the patient cannot take enough food by mouth; it may be necessary to pass a tube through the mouth into the stomach and to<give food materials through this tube, In addition to food given in this way, sugar solutions may be injected into a vein, If the patient is suffering from anemia or loss of coloring in the blood, an injection of whole blood into a vein may be required. If the diet is adequate, the giving of various vitamin preparations may not be necessary. However, many physicians who treat patients with liver disease feel that the giving of chodine which is part of the vita- min B complex, and methionine one of the amino acids that make up proteins, will be helpful. Some of the patients with liver diseases suffer from a definiency of vitamin K and, of course, this vita- min may be supplied in such cases in the form of a capsule or tablet, Remember, liver disorders may be serious, especially if heglected, and when they occur, a physician's" ser-~ vices should be obtained as quickly as possible. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS M.ES.: Is there such a thing as change of life in men? Answer? If is believed that there is a period in men during which such symptoms as irritability, reste lessness, fatigue and similar symp- toms may occur, due to certain changes in the glands of internal secretion. This period does not cor respond with the so-called change of life in women. Theatre Talk Ney York -- (AP) -- "A Streetcar Named Desire," by Tennessee Wil. liams, was the overwhelming choice of the New York Drama Critics Circle as the best play of the 1947. 48 Broadway theatrical season. The play is the second by the 34. year-old dramatist to win the Critics Circle prize; Williams "The Glass Menagerie" was named best play of the 1944.45 season. With 21 of the 25 members of the Circle voting, "Streetcar" received 17 votes; "Mister Roberts," by Thomas Heggen and Joshua Logan, two; and "Command Decision," by Willlam Wister Haines, and "Me. déa," a euripides drama freely adapted by Robinson Jeffers, one apiece. "The Winslow Boy," by Terence Rattigan, a Briton, was named "Best Foreign Play," polling 10 votes. The runner-up was "The Respectful Prostitute," by Jean Paul Sartre of Paris. J "A Streetcar Named Desire" is a serious drama about the dissolution of a young southern aristocrat, told in alternately tough and dreamy terms, ending in the young lady's insanity' '- ~ Life is a one-way street. No mat- ter how many detours you take, none of them leads back. And once you know and accept that, life be- comes much simpler. Because then you know you must do the best you can with what you have and what you are 'and what you have be- come. ~JIsabel Moore.

LB DO you know that in the olden days pretty ladies applied mutton tallow to their eyebrows, brushed them vigorously to make them look thick and luxuriant Different days; different ways. No doubt some of the so-called beauties had forehead scimitars like Captain Kidd's. ' In the days of silent movies the stars | had eyebrows that were accented and widened with crayon. Tweezing started along = about 1918. It wag a good ida. Clear.cut borders make the countenance look neater. Beauty shops were busy with customers who needed eye- brew remodeling; yet many women started out on their own to see what they could do. Sometimes the results were pleasing, sometimes not, Anyhow, it was all good, clean fun and supplied the sisters with a new diversion. Interesting Method A beawty specialist in Hollywood has worked out an interesting method. Instead of pluckiag fuzzers, trusting to luck as to becomingness of results, he uses a thin crayon, L 3 » dow sketches a pattern. By that means the pulchritude seekers can decide whetlier or not she likes herself looking like that. Before arching begins, cotton pledgets that have been dipped in hot water are placed upon the cus- tomer's noble brow. This treatment relaxes the tissues, eases up the hurt when shafts are removed. Slanting Line Hair should be pulled out in the direction they grow; they emerge on a slanting line. If the flesh is pinched during the weaoding, there is less discomfort. Many an eye- brow groomer has found that fact out for herself. It won't do to do al! the pluck. ing along the lower border; if the eyebrow is placed too high, the eyes will appear smalle.. Eyebrows require a certain amount of attention other than arching, They should be washed with soap 'and water every day, groomed with a brush, the bristles of which have been dipped in bril. liantine, WHAT SHOULD 1DO ABOUT Invitations to Widow's Wedding By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am awidow, twenty.six years old, and since my husband was killed in the war I have lived with my mo. ther and father. Now I am going to re.marry, and although it will be a small wedding, it will be a church wedding and I am going to wear a long afternoon ensemble, blue crepe dress afd matching jacket. Would it be correct for my parents to do as they and I wish them to do . ..send formal engraved invitations to this | type of wedding? If so, exactly how should they be worded, esp=cially as to the form of my name? (Is it real. ly necessary to use "Mrs." before my name, as I have been told?). Anne Yes, for this type. of wedding it is correct for your parents to issue the invitations, and for the invita. tions to be formal ones. Like this: A (Begin italics) Mr. and Mrs. Charles Foster Brown request the honour of your presence at the marriage of their daughter Anne Brown Heyworth 0 Mr. Thomas Paul Roberts Saturday, the first of June at four o'clocke United Church Haven, New York (end italics) (The prefix "Mrs." should not be used before your name. The fact that your own family surname . . . Brown, as in the example . .. is used in your name is enough.) The Ideal Thank.You Note . . . Not "Necessary" But Pleasantly Spontaneous Dear Mrs. Beeckman: When a house guest brings a hos. tess a present, and the hostess thanks her enthusiastically at the time, is it also necessary that he write a thank.you note to the guest later on, when the guest has return. ed home? * D.S.M. The verbal thanks are sufficient, and the note of thanks is not neces. sary. However, some people who have a charmingly.developed sense of appreciation endear themselves to their friends by their pleasant habit of writing notes of thanks whenever they feel so inclined. They aren't conscious of "rules" .. . they don't stop to figure cut whe. ther or not a thank.you note is ne. cessary" . . . they feel grateful, and so they write their appreciation. For example, let's say a guest has brought with her a gift of special sweetness and thoughfulness. The hostess is touched by this plan for her happiness, thanksher guest deeply, heartily. After the guest has deparied, she again thinks "How very nice of her to-bring me this gi't . .. I must tell her again of my great enjoyment in owning it (or 'in using it as she planped') . . . I'll write her at once to thank her for her goodness and for the gift." What a lovely way to bind heart to heart, friend to friend! Not Cocktails with the Wedding Cake Dear Mrs. Beeckman: We're going to have a rather large church wedding. t... because I have never had the slightest inter. est in having a wedding reception, , we are inviting only a very few guests to our apartment after the ceremony, which will 'mean that they will arrive about half past five. I just must have a lovely wedding cake (that I've always wanted!), but I don't want to bother with much else except something for the guests to drink with it. Mother completely disapproves of my suggestion that we serve cocktails. What do you advise? Floretta I agree with your mother that cocktails, served with the wedding cake, don't suggest a suitable or discriminating choice. Why not, with your festive wedding cake, serve its traditional and appropriate com. panion, champagne? Or a delicious punch? Either of these is more wedding. y than cocktails!

TEN ~~ [74 : 15 BALES TIPS FOR TEENS Ld Stand When a Senior Enters By mm m---- Here's a high-school girl who is confused about manners. Perhaps the same questions puiszle you. "I have found it rather confusing to know just when to stand, for politeness' sake, when an elder en. ters the room. I have always stood up when an older person enters the room, but wonder when I am con. sidered old enough to stop this. My mother says never, because. there are always people older than I am and I should continue to show con- sideration for them." Ans.--No mat. ter how old you are, it is always a courtesy to stand when an older pér. son enters the room, or when you are introduced to one. A girl need not stand, of course, when she is in. troduced to a boy who is a little older than she, and girls who are close to the same age do not rise when introduced. "When a woman enters the room 1 just to say a few words, should I stand?" Ans--If you have already greeted her, standing when you did 80, it isn't necessary to pop up every time she re.appears just for a mo. ment. But it's good mahners to rise when she enters the room for the "INOR WILLIAMS ' first time, even if its only for & minute. "When my hostess 'is my senior, should I stand when she introduces me to somebody my own -age?" Ans.--Yes. This is to show deference to her, more than to the one who is your own age. "Must I stand whenever my hostess, older than I, rises to greet other guests and when she goes to the door to say goodbye to them?" Ans.--No. Stand only when you are part of the group that includes the hostess or guests older than you. "Should boys stand every time my father enters the room, whether he speaks to them or not?" Ans.--They should stand when he greets them or when he comes into the room to join the group. But if you were play- ing games, etc., it would be awkward for them to rise every tire he came in for a moment to get his pipe, the evening paper, etc. (For tips on the care of froubted skin 'with pimples or blackheads, send a stamped, self addressed en. velope to Elinor Williams at this paper.)
