Ii wou! well if the sister--especially the younger ones of high school age --would realize that the tooth- brush is more important in the campaign for good looks than those interesting little items in the make- up box. The toothbrush is' about the only weapon we hafe to combat decay of the teeth, though the belief seems to be gro that diet is an "influence, especially vitamin C; 80 a quart of milk a day may be a sort of insurance against oral troubles. By using the right kind of brush . not too large and with bristles of different lengths, set in groups . . . and by using it correctly, much trouble with the gums may be prevented. The fric- tion necessary for. a thorough scouring has a stimulating effect upon the blood streams that nour- ishment to the tissues. When selecting a toothbrush, note the length of the handle. It should be at least six inches long to insure sufficient grasp to apply and maintain considerable pressure. Extremely long bristles are not as efficient as shorter ones, for after 'they are wet, they have a tendency to bend and slide over the surfaces, instead of frictioning them properly. Take care of your brushes. You should have two of them, so one will always be dry. Place a new brush in a strong salt solution and let it remain there fof two hours before using it. It will set and clean the bristles and take away their original harshness. After using, they should be rinsed with cold water. Very hot water should not be used even when you are groom- ing your teeth, as it softens the bristles, may alter the shape of the handle. If you keep your brush in a glass, the end with the bristles should be -up, not down. It is not wise to place it in a covered con- tainer; this prevents drying and en- oourages the growth of bacteria. As soon as the bristles weaken, the brush is useless. Some den- tists request their patients to buy new brushes every four months. No matter how excellent the dentifrice you use, plenty of brush- ing required; it is the brushing that does the business, reduces the : Classic! Terrific! Joyful news! This is a Two- !

These gay: A Physician Advises You By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. ) CAUSES OF JAUNDICE THE body has a special and complicated system for disposing of the iron-containing pigments which color the blood when they are freed by the destruction of old red blood cells--a process which goes on more or less con- stantly. There are a good many points at which the process 'can go off, thus releasing these pig- ments into the general circula- tion and causing them to be deposited in the skin and mem- branes of the body to bring about the yellowish discoloration known as jaundice. From this, it §s easy to see that the causes of jaundice are va- ried. Since the liver plays a ma- jor role in the process mentioned above, jaundice due to liver dis- orders is probably the most com- mon * type, and is usually assoei- ated with inflammation or hard- ening of this important ergan. LIVER DAMAGE Jaundice due to inflammation of the liver usually is caused by a virus infection. However, it may be due to liver damage resulting from the ingestion of certain drugs, such as carbon tetrachlor- ide, phosphorus, or chloroform. In the form caused by liver ine fection, jaundice may occur three months after a blood transfusion or may develop without warning. Usually fever, chills, and extreme yellow color of the skin, with en- largement and tenderness of the liver, are present. These cases are generally treated by employ- ing a high carbohydrate (starches and sugars) and high protein diet. Certain substances, such as meth- ionine and choline, have been. dis- covered to be of :benefit in this condition. Some favorable results have been reported with the use of antibiotics, such as aureomycin, chloramphenicol, and terramyein. In most cases, the disease itself is limited and disappears as time progresses. DEFECTIVE CELLS Another type of jaundice is caused by defective red blood cells, which are smaller than the normal ones and are round in shape. As a result, these red blood cells are extremely fragile and rupture easily. This disease is seen frequently in many children; an enlarged spleen usually accompanies this disorder. Another form of jaundice, known as post-liver jaundice, is caused by an obstruction to the normal flow of the bile from the liver and gall- bladder to the intestines. This obstruction to the flow of bile may be either partial or complete. It is usually caused by either a stone in the tube or duct between the gallbladder and the intestines, or a tumor of the duct or. the struc- tures around the duct. Very frequently, a tumor of the head of the pancreas is the cause of post-liver jaundice. This con- dition is best treated by surgery so that the obstruction to the flow of bile, which is responsible for the jaundice, is removed. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS E. D. N.: Is there any cure for giant hives and what causes them? Answer: Giant hives are a form of allergy. The cure for this con- dition consists in finding the sub- stances to which the individual is senstive and desensitizing him against the offending substances. Anti-histamine drugs are helpful in relieving the symptoms. Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood (AP) -- Servicemen, you have a friend. Her name is Jane Russell. Some friend, huh! It seems that the sentiment of most red-blooded men, particularly those to whom the availability of feminine charms is limited, is dead set against lowering the female hemline, Lieut. Tom Hamrick, late leston, S.C., but now resid- ing near the 38th parallel, so in- formed AR columnist Hal Boyle. The lieutenant assailed the dic- tate of French designer Christian Dior» who has sent the skirts of his new dresses lower than the value of a nickel. When I informed the ample Miss Russell of the Dior dive, she re- plied: "Horrors!"' She thought the thing over and again commented: "Horrors!" When she recovered from the shock, I asked her if she would follow the Dior decision. NO ALTERATIONS '"'Absolutely not!" she replied. "Down again, up again! Down again! I'm through altering my dress. They're going to stay just the way they are now. I'm not going to change them for any- body." While rehearsing a dance num- ber, she described her costume: It's cut 'way up to here (point- ing). It's going to look as though I'm all legs, because my legs usually look as though they extend up to my neck, anyway."

GLAMORIZING:- Special Care for Special Skin By HELEN FOLLETT Special care for special skin. An oily eomplexion with undernourished 2 ° THERE is one. type of com- plexion that requines special at- tention, a little extra care that differs from the general rules suitable for treatment of oily, dry, or normal skins, It is the oily surface with wunder-nourished tissues. Usually the "oilies" shun creams, but in such a case a soothing emollient is necessary. Treatment consists of the ap- plication of a heavy massage cream at bedtime, together with brisk massage. The patting and molding must be continued until the flesh glows. That will show the - supplicant for more loveli- ness that the blood: streams are rushing forth with good groceries for cells that have become more or less depleted. No rotary move- ments that may stretch the skin, but a brisk slapping and tapping. Some women fear massage and well they might; heavy-handed- ness can make weak tissues weak- er, while quick brisk strokes will make them stronger, the flesh more solid. The cream should remain 'on tissues needs a heavy creaming comes bedtime. " . * overnight. In the morning dash on cold water; nothing like it to revitalize facial fibers that have lost tone. After a- gentle drying an astringent or tonic lotion should be applied. Have it ice- cold, put it on with pledgets of cotton; let it dry. The daily use of a nourishing cream and an astringent will not only correct oiliness eventually, but will tone relaxed fibers, keep the skin in condition, haye an ex- cellent effect upon texture and coloring. Many women use cosmetics that are not suitable for their needs. A good way to solve that problem is to have a facial treatment at a reliable beauty shop. Operators who do this line of work go through long training. They learn about tissues, muscles and nerves of the facial areas. They're ever ready with advice and suggestions. Then; too, the treatment is well worth the money. The skin has a rousing cleansing and the manipulations of experienced" fingers recondi- tion the complexion. Kitchen Barbecue is Exciting BARBECUED CHICKEN Barbecued chicken and cranberry sauce for dinner tonight! A won- derful menu! Chicken and cran- berry sauce are just about the best buys on the market today. As far as the family's concerned, foods don't come any better. But, you say, we don't have a barbecue pit. Well, neither do we but we barbecue 'chicken right in the kitchen . . . carry it picnic style to' the front porch and have our- selves a barbecue dinner in the easiest manner. There's cranberry sauce to go with the chicken course, a spicy sauce which gives the meal some zip. There's a crispy tossed vegetable salad with the family's dressing served on the side. Some chips, buttered rolls, iced tea, and chilled fruit for dessert. This is how we fix our barbecued chicken and spiced cranberry sauce. BARBECUED CHICKEN ...

Such shades as orchid and mimosa yellow with touches of ecru or black appear in fone line, with matching bras. Much elasticized lace is used, and there are fanciful lace overlays. Bras are of lace over net. % oF + TIEING UP the mode smartly is ribbon. For instance, one designer has done a charming sailor of beige net, the medium brim covered with loose, knotted little ribbon strands in rose beige, using 350 yards of ribbon in all, * * + A FAVORITE almost the year round every year, the new versions of the faille suit are as smart as ever. A black faille suit has a snug bodice that eases down to a cres- cent peplum, and its velvet revers are softly beaded. * bb A COMING TREND, judging by recent showings, is 'the' simple, short skirted dress in pastel fash- jon fashions, for late-day wear. Ice blue for one such dress with inset pleated bands around the oval neck~ line and bracelet sleeves. With it a simple black velvet coat with inset self ruching at the neckline and cuffs, * * something, of an eclipse, is the good little black dress for late afternoon wear. Black silk taffeta for one dress that has a demure little crys- tal-beaded collar that hugs the throat, a basque bodice, and a skirt composed of five finely pleated tiers. * + * A LATE STARTER for bridging the sartorial seasons is the simple suit or, two-piece dress of black silk crepe with a tiny woven motif, usu- ally a small rosebud in red and green. or a tiny violet bouquet. Jackets are softly fitted, skirts mod- erately full, to make for a silm, yet easy silhouette. German Girls' Chances Of Marriage Slim Bonn (Reuters) -- German girls still are having a tough time find- ing husbands, although it's a little easier than it was right after the war. West German newspapers con- tinue to make large incomes out of anxious spinsters reduced to adver- tising for a mate. Statistically speaking there are 1362 girls chasing every 1000 men in the age group 27 to 31 -- the groups worst hit by the war. Be- fore the flood of returning prison- ers began in 1946 there were 1713 girls after 1000 husbands. Girls in outlying villages have little chance of finding a husband. The agricultural areas sent pro- portionately more of their men to be soldiers. In addition, many of the country's 4,176,000 widows want to re-marry. Among upper-class families there is many a West German country house or castle with four and five daughters to marry off. The 'odds are that at least one will end up in a convent. Before, the daughters would have been sent for a season in Berlin or Munich and then dispatched on a round of country visits, But now * RISING to new distinction, after | oI EN -~ In Jhe ] Discover How Good Iced Tea Can Be!

By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear. Mrs. Beeckman: My son is to be married in church on Labor Day, September 3. Would it be correct for me to wear a blue sheer dress with white accessories, or would it be better for me to wear a dress appropriate for Fall? Helen Labor Day in your part of the country is regarded more as "Summer" than as "Fall" . 3 and I should advise your wearing the blue sheer dress with white accessories, HOWEVER, it is most important that you consult with the bride's mother as to the type of costume she is planning to wear, because the type you plan should correspond to hers. But blue sheer with white accessories could be adapted to any type of costume. RECEPTION IN UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am a young widow, and am to be married soon to a divorced man. We are going out of the state to be married. Would it be correct for us Berlin is out of the question, and even in Munich there is little social life. Outdoor social events where young people normally have a chance to meet are just appearing again. rl Many of the old social forms have disappeared and nothing has grown up to take their place. Germans do not make acquaintances easily. Many still insist on being solemnly introduced before they address a stranger. The student corps formerly car- ried out the function of helping students to get to know each other. But many of these groups have been banned because of their ex- treme nationalism. . Many 30-year-old girls and widows advertise in the papers. Local papers print 75 to 100. mar- riage advertisements weekly. Most women find it a good plan to put all the cards am the table at ohce -- "well-built lady, 28, with flat wants to get to know gentle- man with a view to marriage." The flippant method is like this: "Princess worthless, nee property- less, with complete trousseau and slight inclination to playing grande dame would like to marry soon." luxury liners. i: See your Local Travel Agent: FIRST CLASS FROM 5210 Low Rate First Class Accommodation Still Available.

When I write to a married couple, and wish to include both of them in all the news of the letter, should I write the salutation "Dear Arthur and Marie" or "Dear Marie and Arthur"? 2. And when I 'wish to sign a note or a letter with both my name and husband's, should I sign "John and Maragret" or "Margaret and John"? ~ Margaret These two questions are answere ed by that fine Rule of Courtesy. 1. In the salutation write "Deag Marie and Arthur" . . courtesy to Marie. 2. In the signature when you are the one who signs both names, write "John and Margaret" . your name last, in courtesy to your John.
