When they think of Juliet's mitts that were like "little white butterflies" they give way to raucous laughter. Juliet never washed a dish, she never yenked carrots out of the ground and pared them, she didn't iron her Pappy's shirts, So what? Why shouldn't her hands look like but- terflies? Lucky girl, Still and all, she came to a sad end. "The time has come when femin- ine paws need a great deal of com- forting attention. If they don't get it, they're going to look years older before next :prang's planting be- gins. Neglect shows up on hands in no time. ' Get a massage cream or, if the beauty budget must be watched, a tube of toilet lonoline, which is wonderfully soothing to the skin. Slather it on generously, then whing your hands together. Rub thumb to thumb, finger to finger, alm to palm. With the thumb at the backs of the hands, wor- g from wrist to fingertips, rub- bing hard on the knuckles, Give thls treatment at night af- ter the hands have had a rousing soapy washing with a brush. The prush ' will hustle up circulation, the flesh will be warm, the lano. line will be more effective than if it were applied to a cold skin sur- face. Slip on a pair of cosmetic gloves, if you have them. If not, wear those cheap cotton work . gloves that you buy at the five-and-tem You may not ke this part of the routine, but the longer the lano- line stays on, the softer and whiter the skin will be in the morning. Protection is Important. If you must use harsh, strong cleaning agents, protect your hands with rubber gloves. Use cotton ones when polishing silver or furniture. ¥ wv dc Beautiful ? Neglect shows up on hands in no : time. *s re Use a high grade soap for dish- washing and laundry work. .The chief enemies of the beauty of the hands -- other than grime and harsh cleaning agents -- are too much water, exposure to wind and cold weather and wrong mani- curing methods that injure the nails, Hands that ~ve in ~~~ dition are so usually because these enemies have been pe..i.ie... . their devastating work. Going without gloves in the winter sea- son will bring a chapped condition that may persist for days.

Juries would allow the blood to leak from the body as water does through a sieve and we would have no way of stopping it. Yet, important as this quality of the blood is under ordinary circum- stances, it can sometimes cause dif- ficulties, particularly when a clot forms in gne of the veins, This con- dition is called venous thrombosis, or thrombophlebitis if, in addition to the clot, there is inflammation of the vein, Two New Drugs Either one of these conditions is always potentially dangerous and we are-fortunate indeed in possess- ing two new drugs known as anti- coagulants, with which to combat them. One of these drugs is dicum- arol, the other is heparin; both slow down the clotting time of the blood. The deep veins of the legs are particularly subject to the clotting which brings about thrombosis or thrombophlebitis, In some cases, the condition is acute or sudden, accom. panied by fever, an increase in the number of white cells in the blood, and swelling and tenderness of the eg. * In other instances, it continues over a long period of time with less-, marked symptoms. There is perhaps a slight increase in the pulse rate and some soreness and swelling. Many methods of treatment for these conditions have been employ. ed. For example, some time ago, the only treatment used was com- plete rest for five or six weeks, Such treatment was often followed by permanent swelling of the tissues and persistent pain. X-ray treat- ment has also been used; and tight oandages and early walking have heen of help in some cases. Some physicians have advised the tying off of the veins to prevent bits of material which might break off from the clot frem getting into the general circulation, Today nearly all of these methods have been abandoned in favor of the anticoag- ulants. Dicumaro] seems to be used to the greatest extent, In carrying out the treatment, the substance is given by mouth on the first and second days. Thereafter the treatment is con- trolled by making tests of the clot- ting time of the blood each day in order to determine whether or not additional treatment is required, for it is important not to allow the clotting time to become too pro- longed. Following the second day, the dose of the preparation is reduc- ed to about cne-third of that which was given on the first two days of treatment. If abnormal bleeding should oc- cur as a complication of the treat- ment, the patient may be given an injection of whole blood into a vein, as well as an injection of Vitamin K. The injection of Vitamin K may be repeated after twelve hours. The patient is kept in bed until the symptoms have disappeared and the blood clotting time has returned to normal, Sometimes a bit of the material broken off from the blood clot gets into a lung. This is known as a pul- monary embolus. Such a condition may threaten life and, when it oc- curs, heparin should be given imme. diately by injection into a vein since it produces a more rapid change in the clotting time of the blood than dicumarol. In certain types of op- eration, there may be danger of blood clot formation. In such cases, ft may be advisable to give dicu- marg} as a preventive measure, QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS J.P.

These same wom- en cream their complexions every night, and watch the diet carefully $0 no extra ounces will destroy youthful figure lines, but the health and well being of the scalp and glo- rious crown are entirely overlooked. The wise mother will encourage her small daughter to brush her Sweetie-Pie Suit FOLLETT . lovely, lustrous hair. * hair as conscientiously as she brushes her teeth, This rite will be- come a habit that may remain with her for many years. The silky shafts atop her precious head are kept in beautiful condition by daily groom- ing. They will have luster and they will be agreeable to arrangement, Before a shampoo the scalp should be frictioned for five minutes. A tho- rough rinsing should precede the application of soap or whatever the shampoo medium may be. While the hair is wet the scalp should have a brisk mauling, By using this method you will have a brief scalp treat- ment that will keep the tissues from tightening, that will stimulate the blood streams from which the silky threads get food and drink. It is well worth while, No matter what your age may be, begin brushing at once. One good going over the entire scalp once a day will, in a month's time, make an appreciable difference in the tone of your hair. Also, it may post pone the day when fresses start to show silvered shafts, Brush until your scalp tingles. That will tell you that the circula- tion is on the go. Don't brush the way you arrange your hair, Tilt the head forward, groom from nape to crown. Comb the hair forward from the crown and brush toward the face. Hair likes a change. The bristles of the brush should be of reasonable stiffness, long enough to pass over the scalp, If you wash your own hair, be sure to do a thorough job. Use a good shampoo and give the hair two or three applications, rinsing thorough- ly in between. Give your scalp a good massage during shampoo, '| usually unenthusiastic Berry. .|is really exotic. They call a lot of Hi;%lights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood -- (AP) -- "In two or three years," sald Wallace Beery, "that little gal is going to be the biggest star in the movies, "If M.G.M, is smart, it'll pay her what she's worth," continued fi "She those old babes exotic, but this gal really fits the word. By the way, what's her name?" I supplied it--Elizabeth Taylor. Beery is not sharp at remembering names, even with those (such as Liz) with whom he has appeared in films. But an old show-business eye like his couldn't mistake the talent of the dark-haired young beauty. I deserted Beery and hastened to a stage where the actress was test- ing for her role in "Conspirators," in which sire'll play Robert Taylor's wife, In case you-haven't seen the gal since she played the kid in "Na- tional Velvet," you'll be interested to know that she was testing in a dress originally worn by Marie McDonald. - "The Body, Jr." you might call her. In fact, Marié's dress proved too large in the waist, but not big enough elsewhere. Careful. styling aided by her na- tural attributes made Elizabeth seem more mature than her 16 years, In the picture she plays a 17-year-old to Bob Taylor's 38. Elizabeth's favorite subject these days is not her film career, but Glenn Davis, the former grid star. The young actress proudly displays Glenn's gold football, which hasn't been removed from around her neck since he put it there. Right now there's only one thing separating them--about 6,500 miles of 'Pacific Ocean. He's in Korea on a three-year army stretch. DON'T BE LAZY "You see, it's my opinion that the only way in which films can be improved is to raise the, critical standards of cinema goers. Too often we just go to the cinema for a couple of hours of relaxation. We shut off our minds and lie back in the film as though it were a hammock; and when the film is over and we come out, we forget all about it."

The bridegroom may wear his wedding ring on either the third or little finger of his left hand ... . it is for him to decide on which finger he will wear his ring. This latitude of choice means that some men consider it smart to wear their wedding ring on the little finger, while others consider that if they are to wear a wedding ring, they should wear it on "the third finger" of the left hand, the finger on which the bride wears her wedding ring. When Envelope Contains Money- Gift Dear Mrs, Beeckman: I always open-a gift in the pres- ence 'of the one so kind as to give it to me, But when a friend hands it to me. But when a friend hands with "the enclosed" will I please buy something for myself . . . or for the house, or for the baby ..« . I thank the giver but without open- ing the envelope. Then, as soon as possible afterward, I write a note of thanks and tell what I bought with the money. - Is this correct? Or should the envelope be opened at that if I should open t velope it would look too graspipg . .. as though I opened the énvelope to "count" how much money it con- tained. With the members of the immediate family I think . this would be permissible, but not with others. Is my point of view right or wrong? JH Right! You should, as you say, open a gift when the giver hands it to you . . . so to show your spontaneous enthusiasm and, by your gracious words of thanks and comments, your appreciation. But when an envelope is handed to you, you are told it contains a money- gift, and so you don't open it but thanks for the thoughtfulness and, in general terms, for the gift: "How wonderful of you to do this, Emily! Thank you, thank you, for your goodness and thoughtfulness. And I'll tell you at once how I spént your gift to buy something to make a dream come true." It is very im- portant that this thank-you note should 'be written at once . . . if there will be a delay in shopping WHAT SHOULD 1 DO ABOUT The Bridegroom's Wedding Ring? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN nce ?_1 feel | for or buying the present, the note of thanks should be written and the delay explained. (I completely agree with you that opening the envelope and looking at the mongy certainly gives the impression that it is being "counted"!) "My Sister-in-Law" , , . Not "My Brother-in-Law's Wife" Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Will you please settle an argu= ment for us? When I introduce my brother-in-law's wife, how should I do it? She is not my sister-in-law; so I could not introduce her as "my sister-in-law." But it certainly sounds awkward to introduce her as "my brother-in.law's wife." What do you suggest? Rose. Although, as you say, your bro- ther-in-law's wife is not actually your sister-in-law (is not actually your relative by marriage), it is proper for you to.speak of her as "my sister-in-law", and to intro- duce her. as "my sister-in-law." This avoids the unnecessarily awkward and round-about "my brother-in- law's wife," a relationship not easy for the person being introduced to figure out! If you add the name to "my sister-in-law," this will be helpful to the person being intro- duced . . . and later, if the intro- duction is one that matters or will atter in the relationship, it can easily be made clear.
