& 81 NHEN a woman has a husband,
Y X II and he cannot or will not support
WV her, she must look out for her
self. She may be obliged to sup
port not only herself but her husband,
who may be i'll. her children or relatives.
If she wants to go into any business in
which money must be invested she has to
go through certain legal forms to protect
herself
She must become a "sole trader" as the
law of California calls it, to designate a
married woman who is managing her
own business independent of her husband.
Any good lawyer can fill out and file In
court the regular papers for her.
When she has decided what line of bus
mess, millinery or a small store, or bak-
cry, or a restaurant, she intends to take
up she must publish her intention in
newspaper once a week for four success
sive weeks. She must give her husbands
name in her advertisement and the date
when she intends making application to
establish a business in which he has no
interest. She must say what court she
applies to and when and where her bust
ness is to begin. She must take re-
markable oath and file her petition ten
days before she goes into court.
The oath she takes is:
81, A B, do in the presence of Almighty
God, solemnly swear that this application
was made in good faith, for the purpose
of enabling me to support myself (and
sister, child. or the like, naming them by
name), and not with any view to defraud,
delay or hinder any creditor or creditors
of my husband; and that of the money so
to be used by me in business, not more
than $500 have come either directly or
indirectly from my husband. So help me
God"
A man may embark in any venture he
wishes, from the gold brick" business
up to banking, without subscribing TO any
oath whatsoever. His profits, as long as
he lives, as well as the capital invested,
will be absolutely his own, and upon the
death of his wife the entire community
property will belong absolutely to him
and without administration being had.
In the petition which a sole trader"
files she must state:
l. That the application is made in good
faith to enable her to support herself and
those dependent upon her, and must give
their names and the relationship which
they bear to her.
3. She must state the fact that she Is in
sufficiently supported by her husband,
and she must say why he does not sup
port her.
8. she must give any other reasons why
she wishes to go into business, which rea-
sons are cause for divorce. If there are
reasons for divorce, she must say why
she does not seek a divorce.
L. She must state what business she
proposes to conduct, where her place OF
business is to be and how much money
she has to put into it. She must also tell
the court just where she got her money
and how.
If she invests more than $500 which came
directly or indirectly from her husband
she must also file his written consent to
her using the money.
When a woman has become. by permits
sion of the court, sole trader the
property and the revenues and increase
all belong to her exclusively. Her hus-
band is no longer responsible for her
debts and she is not responsible for his.

LILLIAN-I am delighted that you were
so successful with the cold cream and
that you find 1t of such benefit. You are
right not to steam your face, as 1t does
not agree with your skin.
The cucumber milk must have ferment-
ed. Perhaps you did not keep it in cool
place 1t should be a creamy yellow
liquid. AS long as yours does not seem to
be quite right I would advise you not to
use 1t. You can preserve the cucumber
juice so that it will last a long time by
dissolving a tiny pinch of salicylic acid in
alcohol and adding to a half-pint bottle
of the juice. This acid is used to pre-
serve fruit, so 1t is perfectly harmless.
Better success to you next time.
A COUNTRY GIRL know absolutely
nothing as to the merits or dement's of
the preparations you mention. l never
heard of them before. 1t is safer to make
your own creams and soaps out of good,
pure ingredients, and then you know ex-
actly what you are using. 1t is exceed
ingly risky to use things you know moth
ing about.
ROSE-It must be the witch hazel in
the lotion that made your face burn.
Perhaps half the quantity would have
been better for your skin. AS your skin
is so very tender, l think perhaps sweet
cream would be the best thing to use on
1t after coming in from the sun. Never
under any circumstances. battle your face
in soap and water before going out of
doors or just after coming in. In the
matter of tan and freckles a prevention
is better than a cure. So when going out
into the light and air protect the face by
suitable covering. Please read what I
have to say to Margaret F.
LEVO-A tonic made of equal parts of
cocoanut oil and vaseline will make the
eyelashes and eyebrows grow, but 1t
should not be allowed to get into the eyes,
as it will irritate and infiame them. If
