PAGE EIGHT THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, MARCH 3, 1948 | BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Fashions in Faces By HELEN JAMESON Old time photograph albums-- some families still have them--to- gether with treasured snapshots of the past, form a history of fash- jons in faces. Look at a picture of your great- grandmother when, at the age of seventeen, she was a bride. Her hair is parted in the middle, looped over her ears. She wears a plain little bonnet with strings. Her bodice has no more fit than a flour sack, She carries an expression of serious responsibility. In later years she acquired a grim, determined look as befitted the period when gaiety was not quite respectable. Everything that made one happy and light-hearted was 'more or less wicked. An in- heritance from our Puritan fore- mothers. Now let us take her daughter, your grandmother. At the age of 18 she erimped her hair on a curl- ing iron, wore a wasp waist corset, dresses that touched the sidewalks. Ten years later she was in a straight-front corset. Her huge pompadour was upholstered with demountable hair, and a coronet braid topped off the hirsute tower. Her Merry Widow hat was the size of a tire. She had thick eyebrows, and paint never touched her fair countenance. But her face had soft- ened. It was not like her austere mother's dour map. Life was get- ting better for women. Then came the period of the hound-dog hair-do. Waved side locks were dragged downward, re- sembling dog's ears. This little whimsy changed the contour of a girl's face, making it look longer. The hair was pulled forward over onto the cheeks, down over the forehead. It was a case of all hair and almost no face. The greatest change came at the end of World War 1, when cor- sets were chucked into furnaces and make-up became respectable. Lipstick and rouge defied conven- tions and the protests of old-fash- ioned parents. The feminine face became vivid, sometimes litho- graphic, sometimes softly lighted, '= o Faces have changed. * FB according to the methods used. It was at this time that the once- beautiful and luxuriant eyebrows took a terrific beating. Tweezing started with the removal of a few strays. When the frenzy was at its wildest, the growth was entirely annihilated and a thin crayon line substituted. Now observe the photographs of beautiful models who pose for fashion magazines. A new face, yes, indeed! Bones have become fash- ionable. High cheek bones and a gaynt and hungry look. Hair slick- ed back, plain as plain, never a sign of an undulation. A low-sung chignon at the back. It is all more or less exciting. Faces, as well as figures, have changed. But, after all, it is always | the same old girl, n'est pas? Fashion | Flashes IT'S A BIG HIT for terry cloth resort clothes. Spanking white terry toweling makes a handsome shortie coat, round of collar and yoked in back with much back flare. * Hp + HERE AGAIN is the silk town coat--urbane, smart. Black taffeta is used for a handsome wraparound model, very slim, with a cape lined in bright green that dips below the waist in back. Green faces the big black taffeta bow scarf tied to the side of the chin. A FINE FABRICS mark some of the elegantly quiet blouses so liked by the fashion-wise woman, Hand. kerchief linen in various pastels or white is used for a nice suit blouse. The wide triangular yoke is very finely tucked below a small Peter Pan collar which has scalloped cor- ners. * 4 + OVER THE BALLROOM FLOOR glide pretty feet shod in satin op- era pumps dyed to match the color of the evening dress with which they are worn. Pumps are bright with gleaming, cut.steel buckles, or buckles set with rhinestones. Lol I 4 A WEALTH of novelties in the accessory field! For instance, one bag, designed in leather, has a clasp that holds nickels and dimes for easy dispensing. Grand for busy women! LE I VERY OFTEN the simplest dress or hat is the most effective. Very effective and good-looking is a sleek, simple, cushioned cloche, a head-hugging hat of .black "bali. buntl. For trimming, a band of pearl beads encircles the shallow, wide. sided crown. Bb + THE COCOON silhouette is the thing for Spring toppers, judging from fashion show interest. Pale rose-keige velourfinishjfzd woollen makes a slim wrap coat.

MENTHOLATUM COMFORT Do/ily Gives in gray polka [ | hand, causing pain and blanching A 'Physician Advises You By HELLMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. NERVOUS SYSTEM DISORDER THE great symphony of life in the human body is presided over by the nervous system, which acts just as the conductor of an orchestra does to draw ail parts into one har- monious round ef action, and to make each contribute its necessary part at the right moment. By far the greater part of the body's functioning is under the control of the autonomic nervous system, which, by doctors, is divided into two parts, the sympathetic and the parasympathetic. Between them, these two systems regulate the beat. ing of the heart, breathing, the ac- tion of the digestive orgals, kid- neys, arteries, and veins, Thus, it is easy to see that if anything goes wrong with either of these two sys- tems, the resulting trouble is likely to be grave. , A New Drug Recently we have been given a new drug called noestigmine, which has a beneficial effect in many dis- orders where the parasympathetic system is at fault. The general ef- fect of thissdrug sems to lie in 'the way® it stimulates the parasympa- thetic nerves. This action on the nervous sys- tem, in turn, may aid in overcoming weakness in the muscles of the bladder and gastro-intestinal trou. ble. It increases the secretion from the salivary glands, and sweat glands. It dilates or enlarges the tiny arteries, and this improves cir- culation in certain parts of the body. The preparation may be tak- en by mouth or may be given by in. | jection into a muscle. | Weakness of Muscles | One condition in wiich the drug | has been found especially useful is | myasthenia gravis, in which there | is a gradual development of weak- ness of the muscles of the body. The | drug helps to overcome such symp- tems as difficulty in 'swallowing, in. | ability to chew, and weakness fol- | lowing body movements, all of | which occur in myasthenia gravis. | The value of the drug in this condition may be increased by giv- ing it together with ephedrine and | other prep ions. While the drug | greatly im es the muscle action {in this disorder, it does not seem to | have any effect in other diseases | affecting the movement of the mus. | cles, such as multiple sclerosis and | | poliomyelitis. Abdomen Swollen Sometimes the abdomen is swol- [len or distended without there be- | ing any blo-king of the opening through to the bowel, In such cases, relief may be obtained by the injec- | tion of noestizmine under the skin. | Such treatment is particularly use- ful for distention ef the abdomen following operations. After an oper- [ ation, the patient may be unable to empty the bladder. Noestigmine is also useful in overéoming the diffi. | culty. | In certain prolonged diseases af- | fecting the nervous system, cold- ness of the hands and feet and con. stipation are present. Often, these | symptoms, too, may be relieved by the use of neostigmine. Pain of Skim There is a disorder known | as | spasm of the blood vessels in the of the skin, Neostigmine is of bene- fit in this condition, aiso. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS E.

GLAMORIZING Ease and Grace of Movement oy HELEN FOLLETT Whether sitting or standing, an easy, graceful pose is natural to screen star Evelyn Keyes. LJ Grace resides in the mind and the muscles. One should desire with all one's heart and soul to move beautifully, and one should keep the musculature resilient and strong. Large and small muscles must work together harmoniously. Everyona is impressed by the sight of the woman who has a well-pro- portioned figure, and whose every moment is graceful. Why is she bi blessed? She probably played vig- orously in childhood, had plenty of health-giving outdoor life, still finds sports and exercise interest- ing. If a woman regards exercise as a | dull routine, she will have none of it. If she gets the idea in her head that it is recreation and fun, she will find time for it. It is all in the state of mind. In either case she should endeavor to sit pretty, stand tall, move with spirit and ease. When grace becomes a habit, awkward, jerky movements will vanish, LJ > Cultivate the idea of rhythm. Express rhythm in every act, when brushing your hair, slipping on your frock, walking down stairs. Observe how you sink into a chair, how you lift yourself from it, how you turn your head, raise a hand. Keep yourself limber by doing arm swinging exercise, by twisting the body from side to side, pivoting at the waistline, touching the floor without - bending the 'knees. Do everythnig to preserve the svelte shape. Exercise promotes a sense of well being. Because it air washes the lungs, it imparts pleasing color- ing to the complexion. With a feel- ing of physical fitness one can tackle the job each day with in- terest. I suggest that you plan a special time for daily calisthenics. Get out of doors every day, willy-nilly, rain or shine. It is the only way to keep young and fresh looking. Be a | Woman Alive and beauty griefs | will not bother you. TIPS FOR TEENS Answers to Brow Wrinklers | By ~"JINOR WILLIAMS Problems, everybody has prob- lems. Let's see if we can find some answers, "I am 14 years old. I like a boy 16. He calls me up nearly every night to tell me how much he likes me and how he wishes I were with him. He never asks me out on dates or to dances. Do you think he really likes me?" Actions speak lsuder than words. So all you can tell for certain is that he likes to talk with you on the phone. Next time he phones, try this: Tell .him you can't talk any longer on the phone; couldn't | he come over to your home so you can finish the conversation there. This should give you a chance to get better acquainted with this elusive Romeo. If he really likes vou, he'll want to be with you sometimes, not just chatter on the phone. "We're having a prom at my high school, and I have a problem.

QA By BOB THOMAS Hollywood, March 2--(AP)--| Richard Whorf got the acting bug | again during his recent repertory appearances in New York.

Humphrey Bogart tells me his first picture with his new inde- pendent outfit at Columbia will be "Knock on Any Door." He feels the film will be timely, since it deals with juvenile delinquency. He will play a defence counsel and the company is seeking a baby-faced delinquent of 19. Bogie will spend the rest of the year at Columbia, since he has only one film yearly at Warners, and "Key Largo" is it...

Anyone who does a sudden splurge on week-ends or holidays, WHAT SHOULD 1 DO ABOUT My Folk Meeting "His" Folk? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Last October my sister became engaged to a young man who lives with his family in a town only about twenty-five miles from where we live. My parents have never met his parents. I maintain that the correct procedure is for his mother either to write to my mother wel. coming my sister into their family, or, better for them to extend an invitation to my parents to visit them, My sister claims that her fiance's family say that it is up to my mother to do this. Please let us know who is correct about this. L.A. It is the parents of your sister's fiance who have been remiss about their social duty. The rule is that a young man's parents, as soon as their son tells them of his engage. ment, should go as soon as possible to call on the girl and her parents; or if a call is not possible because of distance or some other reason, they write or telephone to the girl and her parents. This rule of good form is based on good sense . . . it is the man's family who welcome the girl into their family, and the bringing together of the two fam. ilies establishes the basis of the good relationship that should exist between them. As I understand it, your sister knows her fiance's family. Is this true? If so, they should make the next social move, that of getting to know the family of tneir son's fi- ancee.. And if, as your sister "claims," they are holding back (incorrectly) - for your family to make the social move, my sugges. tion is that your mother and father don't stand on ceremony but take matters into their own hands, gracefully and graciously, and in. vite the young man and his family to come to, say, tea on a specified Sunday afternoon, or dinner or whatever is convenient. This gets the social ball rolling in establish. ing that so-important relationship between the families. Should She Return Gifts From Former "Steady?" Dear Mrs. Beéckman: I have been going steady with a fellow for four months, and during this time we have given each other Christmas and birthday gifts, and also other occasional gifts. Recent. ly we broke off our friendship, and now I am wondering whether I should return these inexpensive gifts or keep them. Which? Gertrude If they are really inexpensive trifles, it is not necessary for you to return them to your ex-friend. But, of course, you may return the if you wish to. Godmother Should Wear Stree Length Dress Or Suit Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am to be godmother at a chrise tening which is to take place in the church at four o'cleck in the afternoon, with a small reception (really a tea.party) afterward at the home of the baby's parents. What type of dress should I wear? MM. Wear a street-length afternoon dress or dressmaker.type suit; with harmonizing hat and carefully- chosen accessories. Her Son Would be "Jr." Dear Mrs, Beeckman: My baby is to be* born within a month or so, and if it is a boy, it is to be named for my husband. Let's say (for example) that my husbands name is John Harold Smith, that my father.in.law's name is John Henry Smith, and that my son would be "junior" or "the third," since the first names are the same, but the middle names different. Will you please advise me? CW. When the middle names differ, no suffix is added to the name, Since your son is to have the exact name of his father, he would be "junior" , . . John Harold Smith, Jr. (or 'junior'. (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions submitted by readers.)
