THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1984 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN ' BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Care of Blonde Hair By BELEN JAMESON Goldie Locks has a grievance. She doesn't like the idea of her yellow halo getting tarnished. She Pelieves that nature should have .given her a color guarantee. Brun- ettes stay as is and redheads, too, until the frost of birthdays comes upon them and their thatches turn white, Blondie'§ tresses are likely to go color crazy even during the late teen years. They darken at the roots. The middle section of a shaft may be sort of drab, the ends straw colored.

WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT to be Introduced ? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beetkman: Saturday I went to a party given at the home of one of my schoolmates. I was sitting talking with a girl in my class at school when the mother of the girl at whose house the party was being given, came up to us with a boy to whom she introduced us. I did not rise because I had always understood that a girl does not rise when she is introduced to a boy. But the girl I was with did rise. Which of us was right? And will you also tell me the reason for your answer so that next time I may be sure what's right/ Mary Elizabeth The other girl was right. She rose not because of the boy was being in- troduced to her, but because she was showing courtesy to the older woman, her hostess. You should make it your polite habit not to remain seated while an older wom- an is standing. Why not begin at once to show this courtesy to your mother ..then'this mannerly habt- it will become so much a par: of your thinking that you wiil react at once, rising immediately when an older woman enters the room or is standing near you? (And inciden- tally, a boy is introduced to a girl . . . not the girl to the boy.) Procedure Of Sending a Check As, a Wedding Gift Dear Mrs. Beeckman: A young cousin of ours, of whom we are very fond is to be married soon, and instead of giving her a usual household wedding present, we would like to give her a check. The groom is being sent by his company to a quite distant place, and so they will not start house- keeping for some time. Wouldnt a check be proper for relatives to send? If so, should we make it out in her name, or in theirs? And should we take it with us to the wedding (which is to be out-of town), give it to her then, and ex- plain why we are giving her a check rather than a specific wed- ding gift? SK 'Under these circumstances this money-gift would be entirely prop- er, and I am sure your young cou- sin will be delighted with your thoughtfulness in sending so prac- tical a gift. Please don't postpone giving it to her until the wedding. Send it to her at once, as soon as possible before the wedding, so that she will have the joy of receiving your gift now, and also so that she will have time to write you a note of appreciation. Since all wedding presents are sent to the bride-to-be, make out the check in her maiden name. With the check enclose a note saying that you thought check might be more practical than a household gift at the moment, and assure her that she may, if she prefers, keep it to buy some- thing later when her housekeeping plans are more definite. Proper For Guest To Wear Black Dress At Wedding Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My family and I are having a dis- cussion concerning correct wedding dress, and we would appreciate your decision. I have just received an invitation 'from a friend of mine to her wedding and also to the re- ception, My financial status is such that a new dress. is out of the question, éspecially since I recently bought a black dress. This dress is very simple, but I consider it a stunning dress. The question is: Would it be proper for me to wear a black dress at a wedding? MR. Certainly it's proper for a wed- ding guest to wear a black dress. If it weren't, it would be too bad for the many, many women who depend on the "basic black dress" to wear on practically all day-time occas- ions! But the well-dressed woman wedding-guest wears some carefully- chosen accessories that add an in- teresting touch of color to her en- semble A smart, pert hat, for ex- ample, of flowers or small feathers, or a small black hat with one dash of color. With this, effective jewel ry, real or costume; light-colored gloves--white or light-gray or beige; a small afternoon purse. "Rosalie." by ONEIDA LTD. WM. A.

BUNDBESEN, M.D, THIAMINE IS VITAL Time and 'again I have stressed the need for a well-balariced diet, one which includes all the vitamins, minerals, protein and other food parts necesary for health. Today I want to show what happens when just one of these essential sub- stances--Vitamin B-1 or thiamine --is lacking. The presence of this vitamin is necessary among other things for the health of the nerves. Too little of it over a long period of time will result in a condition which begins with loss of sensation in the feet, and ends, if not remedied, with pa- ralysis of both arms and legs. Lack of Feeling The patient usually consults the doctor because of numbness or lack of feeling in the feet. He finds that he can no longer detect either heat, cold, or touch. Gradually, the same thing occurs in the legs, and later the arms may be involved, also. This disorder is most likely to occur during the child-bearing time and during the course of long, wast- ing diseases which are associated with poor eating. It may also de- velop as a result of disturbances of the taking up and using of the food parts by the body, as in dia- betes, and is often a part of the penalty paid by those who follow fadist diets. Response to Treatment Diagnosis of this disturbance is made on the basis of the patient's history and on the signs and symp- toms, as well as on the response to treatment. In other words, if the patient is given vitamins, particu- larly vitamin B-1, in adequate amounts and the symptoms cledr up, it is likely that the disorder was due to a deficiency of the thiamine. This disturbance of the nerves is called nutritional polyneuropathy, which means an abnormal condi- tion of a group of nerves due to a deficient diet. The disorder develops only after a prolonged period on a diet lacking in thiamine. The nervous disturbance is rarely the first sign of the deficiency. The earlier signs and symptoms include loss of appetite, loss of weight, con- stipation and diarrhea, depression, restlessness, and headaches. Deficient in Others When the diet is lacking in one food part, it is often deficient in others. Hence in these patients, there also may be symptoms of de- ficiency of niacin and riboflavin, which are other parts of the vita- min B-complex. The earliest evidence of involve- ment of the nerves due Yo dietary deficiency are cramps in the calves, tiredness of the legs, and a burning sensation in the feet, as well as ten- derness of the soles of the feet. In treating the disorder, it is nec- essary to supply the thiamine in liberal amounts, as well as to give the patient a well-balanced diet. The diet should contain plenty of protein foods, such 2s meat, milk, and eggs. It is also suggested that Brewer's yeast be given three times daily. A tablet or capsule contain- ing a mixture of all the known necessary vitamins may also be ad- ministered. If the patient cannot take the preparation by mouth, it may be necessary to inject it under the skin, QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS M. O. N.: What is "tuberculous lymphadenitis," and what'is the treatment? Answer: tuberculous infection of the lymph glands. Treatment depends upon the lo- cation of the glands. Surgical re- moval is sometimes necessary. Some heavy wool skirts don't need binding on the hems. Machine stitch close to the cut edges of the material, then turn up the hem and fasten it with a loose, catch stitch- ing. If the fabric isn't likely to fray, the machine stitching can be omitted. Just pink the edges.

'There are .light blondes, the betwixt-and-betweens, | and the dark. The extremely fair blonde's com- plexion may have a 'luminous, semi- transparent appearance. Then the attendant at the cosmetic bar adds a suggestion of violet powder to the creamy one that is usually used by this type. A light wild rose shade of rouge is recommended if there is no natural coloring. The lipstick must be darker, but of a harmoni- ous color. The dark blonde does well by her- self if she finds a pinky-pink pow- der that carries a slight golden cast; it does something to the lights in her hair. She can use a darker rouge and lipstick than the fair type. The skin should not only carry the dull finish, but it should look creamy, gardenia-like. The true blonde has hair of a shining, golden tint. Her skin shows a rose tone on the cheeks; her lips need little pigment, as they are usually a deep red.

Hollywood Hizhlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood--(AP) -- The world's most famous exponent of top hat, white tie and tails hints that this formal attire is disappearing from the U. S. scene. Fred Astair was hoofing through a dance number with Ginger Rogers for "Barkleys of Broadway" and he was spiffed out in his usual ultra- formal costume. "You certainly don't see this kind of dress out any more," Fred ad- mitted. "You used to see it more in this country, but never so much a. in England. . "I rethember when we played in an English show, we could see noth- ing in the audience but white ties. When the black ties started creep- ing in, we knew the show was reaching the end 'of the run." Le Fred confessed he hardly ever wears the formal dress outside Of course, there's a good reason for the general demise of the out- fit. Who but Astaire can look good in top hat, white tie and tails?

He might have been working in the flelds if it hadn't been for a visit to Edmonton to see some rela- tives. While here, he heard of Am- brose Holowach, an Edmonton musician who was a friend of one of Roman's former teachers in Europe. Roman went to see Mr. Holowach who recognized Roman's ability and made it possible for him to stay in Edmonton. Now Roman has his own 15-min- ute radio program of classical music. He also has been asked to be guest soloist of the Edmonton Philharmonic Orchestra. Roman was born in the Ukraine and started his music studies when he was five. 9 Simcoe St. S.
