Wrinkles at Seventeen

Dear Miss Doom
7 am Il years old and am getting
wrinkles around my mouth when l
laugh. My skin is very dry, and when |
put powder on everyone can tell. use
cold cream Could you tell me what to
nse for dry skin? l will be very CRATE
full MARY G.
Have you ever thought that wrin-
kles around the mouth are not wholly
undesirable if they are not too pro-
nounced? They indicate character. 1t
is important, however. to so live and
think that the wrinkles will indicate
things worth while, IKE a sense Of
humor and van optimistic nature.
Beauty experts maintain that no
girl should begin to massage her face
until she is at least thirty years Of
age. Massaging will eliminate wrin-
kles, but only as long as the treat
ment is kept UP. When the massag-
ing stops the wrinkles are not long in
displaying themselves again. So L
would advise you to let them alone.
Do not use cold cream that con-
tains peroxide It would be too dry
ing for your skin. Use one that con-
tains plenty of oil. Rub in well at
night, just wiping off the surplus.
In the morning cleanse the face well.

A TALK ON HATS

Discomfort fills ones mind
after looking at the adorable
hats for the coming season.
discomfort with ones winter
chapeau which until this mo-
ment has seemed most becom-
ing.
There is absolutely no telling
which shape is most fashiona-
BILE or what sort of trimming
is favored, for the elongated
brim, the narrow rolled brim,
the fiat or slashed brim, no
brim at all, the round, the
square, the helmet crown and
a host of others that are not
named are shown and one is as
smart as another.s
As for trimming, while the
very small hats are given a de-
gree of prominence by the ex-
tremely tall standing
aigrettes and mounts of flow
ers. these same trimmings are
just as likely to jut out in back
or at the side and they may
be placed under the brim or
on top OF the brim.
Ostrich is being used extern
sively as trimming, but usually
it is made up In some novel
fashion. 1t is wired in the
curved form of an Interrogation
mark or perhaps a spiral, but 1t
is always extremely effective.

1 have. had it on my mind to tell
you something of casserole cooking
for some time, but just now is an e%-
ceptionally good time to use it, when
the usual spring house-cleaning and
sewing is being done.
The meat and vegetables may all be
prepared in thesmorning in the casse-
role and no anxiety felt about the din
ner. except to put the dish into
moderate oven two or three hours
before the meal.
The casserole is an earthen dish
usually brown-made with a close
fitting cover. 1t is the serving as well
as the cooking dish, consequently
much extra DISTINGUISHING is saved by
this method of cooking. 1t is labor
saving device taking the place OF
half a dozen pots and pans in the
kitchen. In all our modern methods
for good housekeeping, we are thor
oughly convinced that much less heat
may be used in our cooking.

Here is one of the new spring
tailored suits.
You see the skirt is longer than we
have been wearing for many seasons
back, and is still very narrow. just
at the knees there is a sort OF wide
facing put on which rounds up on the
skirt at the sides and is closed with
simulated buttons and buttonholes in
the front. This wide facing is caught
up slightly under narrow panel that
reaches from the waist down TO the
feet in the back
The coat is a modified Russian
blouse, the waist part being slightly
fulled into the raised belt and a mar
row pepluin skirt, with a cutaway
front falling from it.
This frock could be made of any
OF the mannish materials for spring.
The one illustrated was Of brown and
white mixed goods with cords of
darker brown. The model would be
especially good developed in heavy
linen or cotton ratine.
The hat is of Panama straw with
a bit OF yellow bird Of paradise
feather directly in front and a brown
band.

Tartar on the Teeth
Dear Miss Doom.

Dear MISS doom.
Can you tell me what will remove tar
tar from the teeth? l clean mine every
morning. Thanking you,
NATHANIEL c.
II the tartar is of long standing I
would advise you to have it removed
by a dentist, after which it viii be
easy to keep the teeth in good condi-
ton. However, If you want to try
TO do. it yourself, procure five cents
worth of powdered pumice and
small orangewood stick, like that
used for the nails. Wind the end OF
the stick with cotton, which has been
rnoistened with lemon juice and
dipped in the powder. Rub directly
on the teeth. BE careful not to
loosen the gums, as a diseased condi-
ton is apt to result. Rinse the mouth
thoroughly. Clean the teeth several
times a week with bicarbonate OF
soda and once a month with salt

To Keep the Face

More important than the cosmetic care
Of the complexion is its physical care. To
keep the face clean, fresh, youthful,
there's nothing better than common mer-

the complexion. That's the difference. BY
all means acquire the mercolized wax
habit. It's so easy to get an ounce of
the wax at the druggists, apply at night
like cold cream and wash it off next
morning. There's no detention indoors,
