FRIDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1946 THE DAILY TIMES-CAZETTE PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU-- Pretty or Chic--Your Choice BY HELEN JAMESON There's no reason, of course, why should not be both pretty and But if one had to make the Dice, what then? Prettiness is lly associated with fluff, while oi Se ue do ' ype, a not alway hold true, The pretty girl ' her good-looks ideas in tness, gentle curves, the waved by King Poarurns = ) The bob is more romantic looking the short or the up- swept, LA BR J and rolled colffure, Miss Chic has more of the. sophisticated manner, is likely to sport the sleek, halr-do, wear clothes of simple de- sign and clever lines, There they are--two entirely different types. Which one will prove more inter- esting to men? Probably the fluf- fy girl, who appears more respons- ive that the severe type, The male ice? . of the species may have a more protective attitude toward her than toward tte lady of fashion, may, because austerity attire, appear formidable, hear some man saying gs» fil i ; Wl grooming, hair shining clean, eye- brows lustrous, neckwear and gloves immacula If mascara is to be applied to eye- brows or lashes, it must be the merest touch, Strong perfumes are not for her; floretted odors, delicate yet intrigu- ing, are suitable to her type, Light bouquet blends, applied sparingly, will give her an atmosphere of love- liness. A few extra won't matter, while they will throw the chic type out of character, because she must play up slenderness to carry her simple, sleekly fitted attire. Soft, clinging fabrics are Miss Pretty's sartorial friends, So is dainty, lacey neckwear, Pastel shades are her color dish, Glamorizing Slimming Down Your Figure By HELEN FOLLETT The slim figure of actress Evelyn Keyes shows she keeps i weather eye on the scales, + * Lovelies of the silver screen keep a weather eye on the bath room scales, They have to, Slenderness of figure is as necessary as an at- tractive face. It would be a good thing if all women would assume this obligation to themselves, keep weight normal, proportions neat and correct, Underweight and overweight may have a deplorable effect upon health as well as ap- pearance, Weight reducing is possible with- out violent exercise, Only moder- ate exercise is advisable; even the woman of normal weight should have that so she will not gain as the birthdays pile up. One can presto-change from over-curves to slimness by cutting down on those foods that are stored away in the form of adipose tissue. Why pet and feed fat cells? * * There are good things of the ta- ble that one can eat without fear that the tape measure will give a discouraging report. Toasted rye should be substituted for white bread, Tea and coffee should be taken clear; cream and sugar are fattening, One can partake gen- erously of lean meats, fish, poultry, vegetables, fruits, cottage cheese, skimmed milk, Green salads are recommended; they satisfy the ap- petite, provide bulk, won't put on an ounce in 100 years, No cat naps during the day, At night sleep should be limited to seven hours. Before taking the morning bath, do ten minutes of setting-up exercises. You may think you'll hate that routine, but you'll soon find out that it will put ginger In your heels, sparkle in your eyes. The Movie Column By HELEN BANNERMAN Canadian Press Staff Writer When Frank Sinatra and Van Johnson complained on the rec- ord of the hoodlum tactics of some teen-aged autograph hounds they started something, A poll taken of a number of sta.s and motion picture executives didn't quite stick the opinion down the Sinatra and Johnson throats but the decision was that autograph hounds are part of the business and if some of them are bolster. ous, well, c'est la vie, Maureen O'Hara, the star, says, "I'll feel sorry when they stop asking me for my auto- graph because I know how to han- dle them. I just say Take it easy kids, and you'll 'get an auto- graph,' and they behave." Raymond Massey, the Toronto- born actor: "We wouldn't like It if there were no autograph fans. A few are very rough at times and this is reprehensible, but that is one of the hiazards of being prominent and there should be no special protection, For every fll-mannered fan there are many | for quick results. movie | | { real admirers." Roy Rogers, the star: "I think these kids are great and full of life and ginger, just as they should be, Sure, they mob me, and my press agent, who is with me all the tlme when I'm in New York, has her clothes almost torn off her back, But she likes it, so why should I object?" Representative movie execu- tives were inclined to agree witr the criticism, But Spyros P., Skouras, presi. dent of the Twentieth Century- Fox Film Corporation, took a more middle-of.the road view, "Autograph fang are the result of the movie industry and they cannot be separted from it," Mr, Skouras sald, "Average folks will always be drawn to celebrities and it 1s quite natural for them | to seek autographs, Most of them I've observed are well-behaved."

For this exhibit--the largest number of these Mauritius stamps in any one collection--British phil- atelists are indebted to the kind- ness of an anonymous American friend. The stamps came over in the Queen Elizabeth, The most strine gent precautions are being taken to safeguard them, What is the fascination about stamps? It cannot be explained, To the genuine philatelist they are an absorbing passion. To others they are a possible means of making large profits, , These five Mauritius stamps, for example, were bought for £15,000 less than the current valuation, The public in general probably wonders what all the fuss is about, The five stamps in question are certainly hot works of art. In- scribed "Post Office Mauritius," they present what is described as "a very crude effigy" of Queen Vic- toria, They were engraved on cop- per by a French watchmaker and printed--one at a time--in 1847. But to the philatelist they are things of beauty. Explains Advantage Of Injection Method By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. TODAY no one doubts the great value of sulfonamide drugs in over- coming serious Infections, That has been proved beyond any doubt, but, none the less, doctors are still trying to widen the field of useful- ness for these curative and life- saving preparations, There are, of course, a number of sulfonamide drugs, each of which has its own uses. Then too, the way in which a drug is used often has an important relation to its effectiveness, These are matters for the physician to determine. An Effective Drug According to Dr, Kurt Glaser of Chicago, for instance, a drug known For Men 'and Boys!

This permits the home treat ment of a patient who needs the preparation but is unable to take it by mouth, Treatment of Patients Dr, Glaser has treated 24 patients with injections of the breathing organs with this preparation. The solution was injected into one of the thighs or, if necessary, the dose was divided into two parts and give en into both thighs, There was no reaction at the point where the solution was injected in any of the cases, Of the 24 patients treated by Dr. Glaser, 10 had various signs of pneumonia verified by X-ray pic~ tures, Eleven had sevege sore throat, tonsillitis or ear infections, or a combination of these disorders, Of the 24 patients, 19 received the one injection as their only sulfona- mide treatment during their entire illness and they recovered rapidly, Fever was reduced and the number of white blood cells returned to normal rapidly, Advantage of Treatment In five patients the treatment with the sulfonamide drugs by mouth or by injection was con- tinued for various reasons, It would appear that this method of treatment has advantages for car- ing for patients in thelr homes, In these days when all hospitals are so over-taxed, it Is not always possible to hospitalize patients who need sulfonamide treatment, Or even if it ls, the paient who can get well at home with the one-dose Injection method is still saved ex- pense and inconvenience, It goes without saying, of course, that this treatment should only be glven by a doctor or under his di- rection, bebcause only a doctor can decide. whether this particular method 1s likely to be successful in any given case. It is not for In- stance, recommended at all for cases of pneumonia with complica- tions or for severely ill patients who need a regular course of sulfon- amide 'treatment over a period of days. your house if you follow Pattern 4862 in its easy method of making | Boxer-type or French-type shorts! | This pattern, easy to use; simple | to sew, is tested for fit.
