Dear Madame Alta:
Will you please publish a good way
to massage the face to obliterate
wrinkles; just the tiniest lines are be-
ginning to show about my mouth, and
as I am still in the twenties I fear l
am going to be p~rematurely wrinkled.
Can you help me? ANXIOUS.
The lines about your mouth are in
all probability the indication of a good
natured disposition and the result of
much laughing. However, they can be
corrected with very little bother. Stroke
the lines gently with the finger tips as
indicated in the accompanying cut,
taking care always to stroke the face
upward, at the same time using the
skin food, the recipe for which was
published in yesterdays EVENING
STAR. Use this faithfully night and
morning for a little while and I am
sure YOU will be pleased with the re-
suit.
I will be very grateful il you will
publish a recipe to prevent dandruff. I
have been afflicted by this disease of
the SCALP for a long time and AVE not
been Eble to find a cure. Can you tell
me ahything that will help me n win
the thanks of
ELEANOR b. M.
Are4 you sure that your combs and
brushes are always s~crupulously clean
and free from dust? To keep the hair
and scalp in a healthy condition it is
necessary that both should be fault
lessIy clean, and that particles of dust
be not allowed to remain in combs and
brushes. Shampoo the head we'll, and
after careful drying massage the scalp
gently with the finger tips, after which
apply the following tonic:

Dear Margery Doon-Do o think it
wrong for a widow to remarry when
her husband has been dead only ten
months? My husband vas very old,
and I never loved him as / do this man.
My friends think me terrible for think
ing OF such a thing, but my fiance
wants me to marry so that we can get
an early start for Europe, where we
are to spend the next two years. Please
lend me your advice. +
YOUNG WIDOW.
1t is against the laws of custom and
etiquette for a widow or widower to
remarry so soon, but there is 10 other
objection, providing you consider our
self able to Withstand the criticism Of
your friends. However, a two-year
trip on the continent may cause them
to forget by the time you return. Good
luck to you.
My Dear Miss Doon-I am en-
gagged to a young man who is
three years my senior. The other
night he was to take me to the theatre,
and when 1 was all ready to go a mes
senger boy brought a note asking me
to meet my fiance in the lobby, as he
found it impossible to call for me. /
sent the boy back to say that If he
couldn't call for me / would not go.
This was nearly a week ago, and he
has not called or written to me since.
Dc you think 1 was in fault? 1 hate
to give in, but cannot bear the separa-
ton. DOROTHY DALE.
Dapi6p0lW Won were wrong. Your
fiance would hardly have asked you
to meet him if he could have arranged
otherwise. Under the circumstances
your going to meet him would have
been all right. Would advise you to
write to him Immediately.
Dear Margery D~oon-Please help me,
if you can. The other night / was
walking on Broad street n l met my
fiance with another girl, whom 1 do not
know. He had her arm and was so
busy talking to her that he did not
even see me. The next day 1 saw him
and did not speak to him. He called
me on the telephone and / rang off.
Since then l have wondered If she was
his sister or cousin. 1 ann afraid now
that he is angry for keeps. Shall l
write to him? PERPLEXED.
Oh, what a silly little girl. to let the
demon jealousy obtain possession of
you for such a tiny little reason. Write
to your fianee by all means. but do not
let him know that you We're Jealous. It
is never good for men to know that
maids prize their affection so highly.
Dear Miss Margery-Should a girl ask
a maj to call. or should she wait until
he asks her permission, after she has
met him two or three times in public
places? ETIQUETTE.
Authorities on etiquette state. that
the invitation should be extended by
the girl, but it is perfectly permissible

vorable TO the growth of friendship.
Parisians may only meet at stated sea-
sons and according to the neXorable
law Of etiquette. Tho terror of en-
croaching on their neighbours freedom
rules them No one ever calls on
friends or acquaintances before being
repeatedly invited to do so. and even
then the call must be made on the
day or not at all. In Paris people do
not drop in unexpectedly TO spend u
few social hours with an intimate
friend without ceremony or warn
ing. When Parisians receive they are
always prepared and give themselves
endless trouble to make the reception
something splendid. Naturally these
functions do not take place in. the av-
erage family very often. This lack of

Guiding Star; B. Hancock. mate; and

morning, TO the surprise Of their
friends and relatives, who had about
given them up for lost They had
just completed the 700-mile voyage
from Victoria. B. C., and the IA days
they were out on the trip appeared
that many weeks to these tanned and

Danger and death lurked in their
path from the very hour they left the

the sloop was reported by the Cape

II was midnight before they reached

Seeing no one at that late hours to
whom they cared to confde their
