Some of them are | prétty slick at it, too. Women in their late thirties can ward off the marks of Time's fin- gers if they will start early on a - war against them. The thing to do is to keep the tissues toned by daily creanling and light friction. Dorét miss this necessary chore, if you are a thirty girl. Keep on adding more | and more cream as it disappears. * Tap and slap and spank your face for: fair. - For fair is right, because then it will stay that way. Bodies don't wrinkle. Why must faces? And necks? The throat often grows old before the face, and it has not the comfort of make-up. Fiddle strings may appear because the head is not carried properly. The head should be on the level Let the chin drop and the inter- lacing fibers from the jaw to the collar bones relax. Continued re- , laxation means that they will soft- en. The skin will be too ample a covering, so it will fall in lines. A rule jo be kept: keep your chin up. If you suspect that your throat "is starting to destroy its youthful lines, try this exercise: . Stand tall, hands on hips, chest ited. While taking a long, deep eath, send the head back slowly. By 0 Send it as far back as you can.

You will' be aware of a strong muscle 11 down to your chest. Every night after the face-wash- ing with warm soap suds, have a warm rinsing, a gentle drying. © Apply a heavy emollient just a- bove the collar bones. Stroke up to the chin and along the jaw line. Do rotary movements above the collar bones, straight across. Re- peat on a line further up, With the head thrown back, do circles under the jaws. While the cream remains on, give yourself an ice friction. This treatment will order the blood streams to get busy. They will bring vitality to depleted tissues. TIPS FOR TEENS Is This Your Special X + Y? By ELINOR ¥ Tain FS WILLIAMS Have you 'a problem? Who hast't!- ~Perhaps today's wails from the mail will help to answer your question: . "Déar Elinor: } nw "Please print this. in the paper. I am 14 years old, but big for my age. think he likes me. We are having a dance. at school and I would -liké to ask him. The only thing is, he is in grade 12 and doesn't go to my school. Do you think it would make any difference to him if he knew how old I am? I am in grade 9. He 'wouldn't know anybody at the dance and all I'd be able to introduce him to would be my classmates. What should I do?" Ans--Most boys and girls like to make friends outside their own class in school, so why not invite him to the dance? There's no need of mentioning your age or what class you are in; skip it and probably he will, too. If he accepts, introduce him to your classmates and suggest exchanging some dances with them, so he'll have a chance to get acquainted and will have a change of part- ners. . Perhaps- he'll invite you to dances later; he ought to, if he he accepts your invitation. If he refuses, there's no harm done. Simply ask somebody else and have fun. "Dear Elinor: "My problem is this: Although boys like me and come to my house quite often, they never ask me for a dat». I am considered nice-looking and popular, and don't understand why they don't date me." Ans--Try this: Organize doings outside your home, for a change, and include one or more of those boys . . . a hike and hot dog roast, a picnic or a beach party--some- tning that is fun without dividing up into "pairs" or couples and doesn't involve expense for the boys. The "crowd" could include several girls and boys or it could be a double-date. This will give the boys a chance to be with you elsewhere besides at your house and will help make them think of you as a date possibility.

USING SEDATIVES The heavy consumption, 'during recent years, of sleep-producing drugs indicates that more and more people, finding the pursuit of sleep [rents are seeking in these pre- ations quick passage to the land of dreams. J This should not be so because sleep is a natural thing which should come of itself. The fact that so many people must woo it by arti- ficial means is probably due to the many worries and straind which accompany modern life. Of course, sleeplessness may be due to other causes. A room which is too hot or too cold, impropér covering, an un- comfortable bed, lack of fresh air, outside noises or too much light, all can interfere with sleep. But by far the «amost frequent cause is the bad habit of inviting all one's worries to share one's bed. Not a Cure The use of sleeping pills alone is not a cure for insomnia or sleepless- ness, but, as a temporary help, such preparations are useful when em- ployed under the direction of a physician. At has been suggested that such medicines will function better if they are enteric coated, that is, if the drug has a coating which will not dissolve in the stomach but in the intestine. With such a prepara- tion, the total dose necessary to produce sleep may be much less than with the non-coated variety. Furthermore, the so-called hang- over which comes from the use of such drugs is reduced or eliminated. Since smaller amounts are required, there is less likelihood of their be- coming habit-forming. Sedative Drugs Before these sedative drugs can be given, it must be 'determined what type of sleeplessness is pres- ent. For example, some persons have difficulty in falling asleep at first put, after they fall asleep, they sleep soundly. Others fall asleep easily but get restless and awaken a'ter several hours, and there are still others who sleep fitfully and do not get enough sleep. 'Those in the first group, it is sug- gested, may benefit from such a preparation as phenobarbital which is enteric-coated and is given about three or four hours before bedtime. Those in the third group should take another tablet on going to bed. Those in the second group will need only the one tablet on retiring. Group of Patients A group of patients with insom- nia, treated in this way, were found to require about half as much of the sleep producing drugs, when given in the enteric-coate? form and in the manner outlined, as when other prezarations were used. Of course, anyone with persistent sleeplessness should have a careful study made by his physician to de- termine the cause, so that the most effective treatment may be em- ployed. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS L. P,; Tt is advisable to take out children's tonsils and adenqids when they are large, even though not bothered by acute tonsillitis? Answer: There is no good reason for the removal of tonils unless the enlargement is so great as to ob- struct the breathing passages. GOING DOWN People who wish to reduce should do {t under professional guidance to avoid injuring their health, physic- fans say. Even if loss of weight is body must have to keep operating efficiently. A doctor is best qualified to say what foods a person can afford to do without. He will also be able to determine just how fast and how far a person should lose weight. Self-imposed diets often weaken the body without getting rid of much superfluous weight. Picnic Protectors When it's time to dis up, it's time to don the Picnic Aprons you see here!

Ld * WOMEN fuss with their com- plexions, creaming them and laying on the high lights. They spend a tot of time on their hair. And that's all right. But no deep thought is centered on hand care. The most hands get is a slathering of lotion now and then. It sometimes hap- pens that a woman's hands will look old before a single line appears upon her face. Well, why not? If her hands got half the amount of atten- tion, they would be like Juliet's "that were like little white butter- flies." Maybe not quite that quaint and lovely, but lovely enough. Frequent hand washing--and the home woman washes hers many times a day--removes the natural oil that was created to keep the skin soft, of fine texture, healthy color- ing. It stands to reason that some- thing musk SRR place of this lubricant. = is not enough.

Ever take a peek at your el- bows? Probably not. You would be surprised. They aren't pretty usual- ly because the skin is coarse, often off - color. If you are in the habit of talking with. your hands, fhaking gestures as you chatter, try to make the movements graceful. Arm waving and finger pointing motions may be a bit distracting to the onlooker. When your hands are in repose, be mindful of them, endeavor to so place your fingers that they do not appear awkward. Your hands tell the world, in a hundred little ways, what kind of a girl you are. If they don't say the right things it is up to you to do something about it.

I have not known these friends very long, but I did think that I knew them very well. Their letter of invitation to me seemed very gracious and hos- pitable until I came to the part that suggested, just the train on which I am to arrive and -- what perplexed me very much--told me the train I am to take on Monday morning. I can understand, of course, mentioning the train I am to take there, for there is the ques- tion of being met, and so forth. But don't you agree that "directing" me about the train I am to take back is not very hospitable or in good taste? Margaret H. No, I really don't agree with you . and please don't think your hostess is being out-of-order in making this suggestion. If is a mis- taken point of view that.it is rude for a hostess to tell a guest the ex- act-length of time for which he or she is invited. It is indeed far from rude . . . it is the essence of polite consideration, for Ww) this defi- nite information, h hostess and guest make plans according to the time set, and there need be no awkwardness. or misunderstanding. A "week-end" is a variable per- fod, and the practical hostess has to explain what she means by this period of time. Today's busy host- ess also has to schedule her hospi- tality and her plans wisely to fit in with her obligations. Naturally she expects her guests to under- stand and graciously cooperate . . . and this you must do! The Wedding Veil . . Either Long Or Short Dear Mre. Beeckman: Our daughter is to have a chureh wedding, in the afternoon, and is planning to wear a white satin wedding gown with train. What length wedding veil should be worn? Mother The long wedding veil should he about eighteen inches longer thar the dress train as it extends on the; floor. (And even with a formal sat-_ in wedding dress with train, the. . bride sometimes chooses to weary. short veil). ABW Bridegroom, Best Man And Ushers '~ Wear White Dinner Jackets >' Dear Mrs. Beeckman: isy My wedding is to be in July, ins the evening at eight o'clock. The. wedding party will consist of a maid of honor, two bridesmaids, a flaws er girl, best man, two ushers and.; a junior usher. I would like to have the bridegroom wear a white dinner » jacket and black tuxedo trousers; with the other men in the wedding party wearing black tuxedos. Is that proper, or should they all, th- © cluding tie bridegroom, wear whité'- dinner jackets or all wear black! dinner jackets. 8: AK. The bridegroom and the men in. the wedding party either all wear white dinner jackets, or all wear the black dinner jackets. The only difference in dress between the bridegroom and his best man and ushers is one of boutonnieres. It would definitely look right for the groom to wear a white dinner jacket, and for the best man and ushers to wear black diner jackets. Speaking of the Husband of Your Sister-in-Law Dear Mrs, Beeckman: Just to settle an argument, will you please answer this question. Is it correct for me to refer to the hus- band of my wife's sister as "my brother-in-law," of as "my sister- in-law's husband"? Fred. Although the husband of your sister-in-law is not actually your re- lative by marriage, it is quite pro- per for you to speak of him as "my brother-in-law, and this is custom- ary.
