WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1930 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE 'FIVE In The Home BEAUTY FOR YOU: Dressing The Plump Figure By HELEN JAMESON Weighty women believe that they are weighed down with beauty sor- rows. They would like to drop them as Pilgrim was relieved of his bur- den. Hip spread, the loss of the waistline, bulky arms, fatted calves! These anatomical defects have crept up on them slowly and gradually. Ten pounds one year, twenty pounds the next and, before they know it, they have a terrific crush on the ba scales. so often they vowed to put up a war against fat cells. They had been told that if they had a will they could sliver down to normal lines and proportions. Their will was a won't, so nothing was done. You have to catch fap cells when they are young. They are a menace to the health. All one needs to do is to stop feeding them sweets, fats and starchs, upon which they thrive and multiply. There are plenty of good things to eat that will not produce adipose tissue--lean meats, fish that is not fat, poultry, fruit, fruit juices, vegetables (especially salads), cot- tage cheese, buttermilk. Trouble is that the heavyweight hankers for those foods that she should not have and doesn't get enough exer- cise to burn up surplus calories that are stored away in the form of human suet. If Plumpie cannot bring herself to start a reducing routine she can, at least, learn something about clothes that will disguise the over- curves, give her an appearance of slenderness. Avoid cross lines in the cut of clothes, in fabrics and decorations; they detract from height. A short, bulky jacket will make the heavy- weight look plumper. Long draperies sare her sartorial dish. The fussier the frock, the more noticeable the ample proportions. Plain fabrics are more flattering than those that are patterned; dark colors give the effect of more slend- er lines. If the upper arms are over- developed, the sleeveless gown is a sartorial error; little cape-like af- fairs should conceal most of the arms.

Like those who wear slacks in which they waddle. How the neck is dressed is im- portant. Fussy pieces of frilly neck- wear should be taboo. If she must indulge in neck fripperies let her choose something that is soft and filmy, designed with long lines, fi- chu fashion, forming a V. The V neckline makes the neck look longer, more slender; it shades down the spare chin, detracts from the circular contour of the face. TL"S FOR TEENS:- Tuck This Under Your Cap!

"Also they might sit more quietly and not yell and run all over the place like many of them do. This also applies when they visit out of town places. We elders like to sit down at these times and have a reasonable amount of peace. There are plenty of places where they can air their lungs to their hearts' desire, if they want to, and not annoy anybody. "I once saw an article in a news- paper on 'What Is a Gentleman?' The answer, applying equally to la- dies was this: " 'A gentleman is one who always remembers others and i Inever forgets himself.' "Perhaps 'teenagers have a small ; | place in their heads where they can tuck this away and when necessary put it to use."

OF INTER A Physician Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. Treatment of Burns The treatment of severe burns is largely aimed at preventing infec- tion of raw surfaces whose protec- tive covering of skin has been de- siroyed. Many methods have been devised for this purpose, but ex- perience proves that complete ster- lization of the burned area is prac- tically impossible. Even when peni- cillin applications are used, the burned surface still becomes con- taminated with germs from the air. One treatment of burns has been to put the patient into a continu- ous bath for twenty-four hours a day. Coating the wound with tan- nic acid to coagulate the tissues has been found helpful, but there is some risk in this form of treatment. Less Severe Burns A more practical treatment, which has been employed not alone for less severe burns but also for more extensive ones, consists in using a mixture of eucalyptus oil and liquid paraffin. A number of thicknesses of gauze is dipped into this liquid until the gguze is thoroughly wet. It is then applied to the whole damaged area and a bandage put over it. This bandage is left in place for at least a week. One of the most painful things about burns is the changing of the dressings. Hence, when a bandage is left for a week much of this pain is eliminated. It would appear that this type of treatment produces conditions which are unfavorable to the growth of germs. Because.the dressing is oily, it does not become tightly fixed to the wound surfaces and can eas- ily be removed when the time for changing. occurs. This dressing has been used for many years in all degrees of burns and appears to be a satisfactory method of treatment. Adding one of the sulfonamide drugs or penicillin to this dressing has not improved results; hence such additions are unnecessary. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS A Reader: What would cause chills, dizziness, and nervousness before a menstrual period? Answer: It is impossible to tell the cause of these symptoms with- out a careful study. It might be due to an infection, possible to some allergy or sensitivity, Some type of glandular trouble, or a nervous dis- order, also might be responsible. Until the cause is found, proper treatment could net be advised. Wings for an Angel va Angel wings, gay scallops, fresh ruffly frills for your darling's spring party dress!

GLAMORIZING :- By HELEN then apply lotion, + HANDS need softening and whitening creams, as well as lo- tions, all the year 'round, most specially in- the season when the north wind doth blow. They need more attention than the complex- ion since they are subjected to dust and grime and frequent washing means that the natural oii is removed, leaving the skin surface dry. Many women have young faces and old-looking hands. All the toilet goods have gone to the face; hands have had to get along as best they could. Creaming is especially necessary if the hands are thin and knuckles have become prominent, A certain amount of molding is possible. First give your hands a scrubbing with soap suds and a brush. I%s helpful to put a little oatmeal in the water. Rinse and dry thorough- ly. Spread on a heavy cream, treat each finger separately, starting at the base, thumbing to the tip, where the cream should be frictioned iuto the surrounding tissues to keep the nails healthy and to prevent hangnails. Thumb from the wrist up to the * Beauty Routine For Hands FOLLETT Frequent applications of a good hand lotion are especially important if hands are thin and knuckles have become prominent. Wash first, * fingers, doing little circles. If the joints of the hands have become rigid do exercises while the cream remains on, Stretch the fingers wide apart, draw them into the palms of the hand with strong muscle pull. This condition may come after the noble housewife has been doing heavy work. Perspiring hands are a common trouble, This condition comes us- ually to the woman who is tense, inclined to be nervous or self-con- scious. At cosmetic counters one will find remedies for excessive skin moisture, Not all are suitable to apply in the palms, so read direc- tions carefully and have conversa- tion with the saleswoman who will advise you. When rigging up for the merry evening, about to zip yourself into your grandest dry goods, it is a nice idea to put a little vanishing cream on the backs of your hands. Discolorations, unless they are in the form of moth patches or perennial freckles, will disappear if laved once a week with a lotion made by combining equal parts of peroxide and lemon juice.
