THURSDAY, MAY 25, 1950 THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN In Jhe dome BEAUTY FOR YOU :- Be A Bathing Beauty By HELEN JAMESON It takes time and an undisturbed mind to have a bath that is re- freshing to the body and stimulat- _ ing to the mind, It is a wonderful pick-up treatment when you are as tired as all get out, wish you could dig in some place "and sleep for a week. These moments come to all of us these days when life seems to be a delirium of rush and hurry. In the tub you can have a breath- ing spell. You can let your muscles go limp and your brain doze. Let the telepho one clang. You can't answer it and that's just dandy. A lead into the tub and a scram- ble out of it in a few minutes won't get you clean. That's the method used by the teen-agers. A shower, without a soapy friction, does not remove dead skin scales, atmos- pheric dust and the exudations of sweat an dsebaceous glands. To be clean you have to scrub, use a well- soaped brush with heavy bristles that do not mat down when they are wet. Anything less than that is makeshift. Have plenty of water, temperature Throw in some bath salts or tablets to soften the water, make it fragrant. Be fussy about the soap you use. Find one that lathers quickly and agrees with your skin. Allow at least fifteen minutes for this beauty ritual. That is precisely what it is, because noth- ing else will give you that fresh, just-washed look. As a complexion beautifier it has make-up beaten a mile. Before stdrting the scrubbing, lie relaxed in the warm water. Go limp down to your toes and the tips of yours fingers. This soaking will soften dead skin scales that are ever present and which, unless they are removed daily, will retard the functioning of th eskin as an organ of elimination. It is a good time to apply a cream to your face. The steamy air aris- ing from the tub, combined with the lubricant, will tend to clear the pores of those horrid little black dots that trouble so many of us. It gives you a start on a five minute facial that should follow the bath. And of course pedicures and mani- There are delightfully scented bath lotions, * +P cures are more easily accomplish- ed after the flesh has been soft- ened. Cosmetic counters offer delight fully scented bath lotions that are to be frictioned into the flesh after a heavy towel has been used. They are a help to the girl whose arms and legs are spotted with goosie flesh which is no beauty bargain, especially these days of the bare-top dress when arms and shoulders are in the public eye. If you prefer, you can have a talcum rub that keeps the skin soft and smooth. But go in for all the fixings; they make life pleasanter.

A Physician Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. TREATMBNT FOR ASTHMA IN medicine, reasoning goes only so far. No matter how logical a treatment may its real value can only be determined by trying it, Sometimes even when based on well-reasoned theories, treatment proves disappointing, while in other instances good ef- fects are obtained where there is little reason 'to expect them. In the past, many childrén with asthma have been treated by ex- posing the back part of the throat tc radium. As a rule, asthma is due to allergy or oversensitivity, and there is no reason to suppose that radium could affect such a disorder, yet, despite all this, ra- dium treatments. do bring about certain improvements. To clear up this seeming con- tradiction, a number of children treated in this way were studied recently, It was 'concluded that radium treatment of the nasal pharynx, that is, the back part of the nose and upper part of the throat, is not a cure for any type of asthma, but is an aid with other forms of treatment. Improvement in the symptoms of asthma may be expected about four months following the radium treat- ment in most cases. Red Cells Patients who have an increased sedimentation rate seem to get better results than those whose sedimentation rate is normal. The sedimentation rate refers to the speed with which the red cells settle out of the blood. The rate is increased when infections are pres- ent; hence, it would seem that pa- tients with infections and asthma do better with the radium: treat- ment than those who do not have such infections, Furthermore, 'the radium treat- ment seems to produce better re- sults in those cases where the amount of lymphoid tissue in the nasopharynx is quite small or even absent. The lymphoid tissue in this area is known as adenoids. It was noted, too, that patients who have normal] sinuses obtain- ed more relief from the asthma after the radium treatment than those in whom sinus infection ex- isted. In general, it would seem, there- fore, that radium treatment for the child with asthma will give better results if there is infection present and if the amount of adenoidal tissue is small, or the adenoids have been removed altogether. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS H. Q.: Is it bad for the heart to take phenobarbital for high blood pressure? Answer: The drug you mention is not injurious if taken as pre- scribed by a physician. It has no effect on the heart, Young Coloratura Critics' Darling, But Gets Spanked By PAUL PETT New York -- (AP) -- The newest darling of New York music critics is a charming, brown-eyed diva who hasn't been spanked in more than a month. She is Anna Maria Alberghetti, 13-year-old Italian coloratura, who made her American debut in Car- negie Hall April 28. "A real wunder- kind," said one critic. "Unusually moving," said another. One man in the audience was so carried away he stood up and shouted in Italian, "she is an angel from paradise." But Anna is no angel. Last month, just before sailing from her home in Pesaro, Italy, she was spanked for going out on a bike ride withuot permission. "It was just a small spanking," said her mother, Vittoria, who is also Anna's accompanist. "It never happened," said Anna, rolling her eyes, twirling her beret and looking oh -- so innocent. Through an interpreter--the only English Anna knows is "good eve- ning," "grod afternoon," and "stom- ach ache" --she was asked when she'd be ready for opera. "In two years," she said. "In four years," said her father, Daniele. Five will get you ten papa wins because he has been teaching and grooming Anna very carefully since she was four. At six, she had her first concert. "When she was born," said Papa Alberghetti, an expert cellist, decided to make a singer out of her. She cried all night. At four, we knew she lad talent. Since then she h : been working about an hour a day on her voice and two hours a day on the piano." "She is very good about practis- ing," said mama Alberghetti, trying to make amends for the spanking €. pose. "In fact, we have to stop her from overdoing it." "I could sing all the time," said Anna, thro- ing the beret in the air. * Tuesday, May 30th QUA NY / 7 at 8:30 p.m. to be held in the OSHAWA C OLLEGIATE Admission 50¢ "we GLAMORIZING :- Rest, Beauty Care Keep Eyes Lovely By HELEN Eyes won't sparkle if they're tired. soak pads of cotton in good quality * LOOK out for your eyes and they | will look out for you.

"But the piano -- well, I would take less of the piano if I could." The Alberghettis have two other musical children. Paolo, 6, is study- ing to be a conductor. Carla, 10, is a soprano. Anna and Paolo are equal- ly talented, their father said. Carla's voice doesn't have "Anna's color, but it will improve." In the last two years, Anna has given 50 concerts in Scandinavia and Italy. Once in Bologna, admir- ers told her parents: "The government should pass al special decree forcing the Alber- | ghettis to have two children every year." Anna is in her eighth year in school -- in Pesaro they call it the "third middle" -- and her best sub- ject is history, her worst, drawing. | She likes Italian novels and "Little Women." Her best friend is a girl named Luciana, who doesn't sing. Her favorite actors are Gregory Peck and Tyrone Power, for whom she sang once in Rcme. Her favor- i*~ actress is Elizabeth Taylor.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood-- (AP) -- Four = months ago, Frank Fontaine was in the depths of despair after being drop- ped from a studio contract. To- day he is the most sought-after comic in Hollywood. Fontaine is a plump blonde- haired man who has a round face that can make all kinds of con- tortions. He has a deep voice with which he ean portray anyone from Winston Churchill to the dim- witted sweepstakes winner, He also has seven children, the young- est 2%: weeks, He was born 30 years ago In Cambridge, Mass. His father, a native of St. Hyacinthe, Que., was a night club entertainer who was often called "The Bing Crosby of Canada," and his mother was once a chorus girl. Frank was playing a Boston date when a television talent scout viewed him and that started the trial to the big time. Off to Hollywood Frank journeyed to New York and guested five times on the Toast of the Town show, He was lamped by an M.G.M. talent execu- tive and brought west to the stud- io \ Flush with success, the comic shipped his family and furniture to California and bought a house. "I had to buy," he recalls. "I had six kids in an apartment in Beverly Hills and people were calling ev- ery day yelling, 'Get out! Get out." After being filled with big promises by the studio, Fontaine was slipped into a bit part and then dropped when his first six- month option came up. That was last January, "I had to ship all my furniture and the family back to her house in Boston, which I fortunately hadn't sold." Then Fontaine's luck changed. He received a call from director Claude Binyon, who had seen his test. "Anybody who can make as many faces as you can should be | right for- a role in my . picture, 'Stella,' " said Binyon.

CORNELIUS BEECEMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: With summer approaching-may 1 4sk you a question about the cor- rect service at either an informal luncheon or. dinner, of a non-alco- holic drink, such as iced tea, iced coffee, or a fruit drink with, for example, a tea base? With my lim- ited (or usually non-existent) ser- vice, would it be correct for me to fill the tall glasses with the iced drink when I fill the water glasses before the guests are 'summoned' to the table? If this isn't correct, what convenient service would you suggest? : S.L. It's entirely correct service for vou to fill the glasses with this kind of iced drink before the meal . . . though not, please, so far ahead of time that the ice will entirely melt and unattractively weaken the drink. A very good and almost as convenient method is to set at the places the glasses filled with ice only . . . have the drink prepared in a pitcher on the side-board, and assign someone to pour the drink after the guests have sat down, or after they have been served the | first course. (Remember that under | each glass should be either a small | plate or a coaster, to catch the | drip.)
