rs TUESDAY, JULY 6, '1948 THE DAILY T IMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Grooming the Fingernails By ESLEN JAMESON Many women, busy with home duties and outside activities, find it next to impossiblz to spare the time for professional beauty atten- jons, 'Those grand old days when e could spend a whole afternoon .going through the' good-looks hop- . per are sweet memories, Also, these indulgences did not snake quite so much money out of the purse. That is important_if one must keep a weather eye on the budget. With a little practice a woman can learn to give herself a fairly good manicure, a better one in fact " than one given by an inexperienced or careless operator. One -7ill need a long flexible file of high grade steel -- cheap ones aren't worth bringing home --bev- .eling files of emery board, orange- wood sticks, curved, needle-point scissors, nail white or white pencil, cuticle cream, nail polish, polish re- mover. 'This outfit will last for a long time. Good steel instruments need never be replaced, so don't economi~2 when buying them. Nail filing must be done before "the hands are washed; if the nails are moist, they will bend. File from sides to center, forming a pleasing oval line, Be careful not to cut in- to the flesh, Remove the nail polish. Pass the orangewood stick under the nail eaves, have a second filing with an emery board. That is when you give your hands a thorough scrubbing, using hot soap suds and a brush. While the hands are wet, use the white pencil under the eaves, forming a clear-cut line. Rinse away the suds; dry well. On the nails of one hand use cu- ticle cream, frictioning it in well. You may use an ofl, if you prefer; mineral oil will do. Manipulating the orangewood stick very gently, moving it in small circles, work from one side of the nail down to the base and on the - other. side, detaching the flesh. Don't press down at the nail base. The matrix is producing new cells that, overlapping, will gradually A woman can learn to give herself a fairly good manicure push their way out. Pressure may cause ridges, even a deformed nail. If you flush up hangnails, use the scissors, points downward. You must not cause a wound; the cuticle around the nails is particul- arly subject to infections. All the oil or cream must be re- moved with soap and water; if any remains, the polish will not endure. The nails should be as dry as a bone. When applying polish, sweep from the ail base upward. Put on two light films. letting the first one dry. It is considered smart now to let the nail eave and the half moon be revealed.

BUNDESEN, M.D. CONFUSING SYMPTOMS I HAVE often said that in order to discover the true nature of dis- ease, a physician needs the shrewd- ned of a detective and many of his methods. . Nowhere is this more necessary than in dealing with a certain type of severe chest pain due to frrita- tion of the nerves at the point where they leave the spinal cord. This condition, known as radicul- itis, causes pain so nearly identical with that of coronary thrombosis that it can fool even experienced heart specialists. Blood Clot Forms Coronary thrombosis is a disorder in which a blood clot forms in one of the arteries which supply the heart with blood and demands an entirely different treatment from radiculitis, Thus, it is of the great- est importance that the two disor- ders be distinguished, The pain in radiculitis, like that of coronary thrombosis, is often limited to the area under the breast bone or under the heart, but it may pass into the left arm or into the neck. The distress may be severe or prolonged. Pallor and excessive sweating emay occur during an at- tack. Some breathing may develop in some ca- ses, with rapid, shallow breathing and the inability to take a deep breath. Radiculitis may be caused by ar- thritis or inflammation of the joints of the upper part of the spine. Neck May Be Stiff If the upper part of the spine is affected, the neck may be stiff and painful. The muscles also. are stiff and tender, and there may be dif- ficulty in turning the head. Pain in the back part of the head and dizzi- ness are also occasionally present. The pain due to radiculitis usual. ly can be quickly relieved. Manipu- lations or movements of the spine are helpful. The physician may pre- scribe exercise to correct posture and the use of a board in bed to stiffen the mattress. In radiculitis, the pain may oc- cur at night when the patient turns in bed, or it may develop during the day when a person stands up after having been seated for a prolonged period, It may also develop with sudden bending or other movement of the back. Symptcns may develop during a walk and stop upon rest- ing. "This occurrence of sudden pain during exercise and its cessation when the exercise is stopped may cause the pain to be confused with that due to angina pectoris,. in which there is pain over the heart. due to spasm of the coronary blood 1 Republicans First Leddy Here is the latest picture of Mrs. Thomas E.

TROUBLESOME TIMES There are times when any child is particularly troublesome and dis- obedient. Health experts say that before taking action parents should look for the cause of the trouble.

So, dear Mrs. Beeck- | man, is there any suggestion you | can give me? | H.B. | Yes, ma'am . . . if you feel as | you do about wearing a corsage, | please don't even consider wearing | a flower, for if you do you won't be | happy or look happy, and that will | be unfortunate! If you are willing to make a simple corsage a part of | your costume, though not wearing i it on your dress or suit, my sugges- | tion is that you pin it on your | purse. Or you might follow the beauti- ful and dramatic idea of the bride's mother at a wedding I went to the | other day in New York. This hand- some, stately, distinguished woman | carried a Prayer Book (covered with | the same rich, dark-red material of her dress), and on the Prayer Book a short branch of small yellow or- | chids.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS L. 8. K.: What causes barber's itch? Is there a cure? Answer: Barber's itch is really '| ringworm of the beard. The infec- tion may occur from direct contact with contaminated articles, such as combs and brushes. Sometimes it results from association with infect- ed cats, dogs, horses, cattle and even birds, In the treatment, the beard should be kept short and the diseased hairs removed by means of X-ray treat- aients. Ointments containing am- moniated mercury and lotions con- taining sulphur may be applied. These measures usually clear up the trouble. COMING IN again is beaded trimming for dresses. Several frocks shown in a recent important col- lection have plastron fronts of sol- id bugle beading. | Singing Throat To Be Photographed Sydney, Australia -- (CP) -- An | Australian girl is to have her vocal | cords photographed by a micro- scopic camera which doctors will place in her throat.

Shall She Send Her Hostess A Guest-Gift? Dear Mrs. Beeckman: ? I am planning to spend my vaca- tion at a girl friend's home in a large city in the middle West. When I return home is a thank-you let- ter sufficient, or should I also send her a gift in appreciation of the time spent with her? If a gift is necessary, what would be an ape propriate item? Ann A gift in appreciation of hospita« lity is never necessary . . . if given, it is a charming gesture of thanks for the thoughtfulness of the host- ess in planning for the welcome and hospitality and happiness and comfort of a guest. Send your host- ess a gift if you wish to . . . some article - which you can afford to give and which you think will be welcome. On your visit, keep your eyes open to see what she might most enjoy. It may be a personal gift, or perhaps something for her home. (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions submitted by rea- ders.)
