Conduct of Young Girl,

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Being in need of some good advice,
| have decided to come to you. /
am IS years old and quite pretty.
| would like to know If it would be
all right to wear pink stockings and
a green dress to a party and is it all
right to go out riding with boys after
night and to kiss them? Also, Is it
proper to write letters to soldier
| have never seen, or to be on the
streets after dark? P. D. Q.
No, to all your questions. The
first is matter of taste. as few
shades of green and pink would
make pretty combination for dress
and stockings. The others are seri-
GUS questions. If you want to go
riding with boys in the evening, have
mother or an older sister 60, too.
Kisses should be saved for those you
love. Don't make yourself common
by writing to strangers, or by run
ming around the streets. Keep busy
at your school work and with things
worth while.

HoU to Look Years
Less Than our Age

The most aged face will look years
younger after the use of ordinary merco-
LIKED wax for from ten days to two weeks.
This remarkable substance, because of its
peculiar absorptive power, actually re-
moves the thin veil of faded or withered
outer cuticle, little at time. Gradually
the fresher. more youthful skin underneath
is revealed. This absorption process being
purely HYGIENE one. an entirely natural
complexion is acquired-quite different
from the artificial complexion, which ap-
pears anything but girlish, though often
bearing painful evidence Of childishness.
An ounce of mercolized wax, obtainable at
any drug store, Is sufficient to rejuvenate
any complexion. It is put on like cold
with warm water.
To eradicate such age marks as wrinkles
and burrows. make . wash lotion by dis
solving an ounce of powdered saxoite in
half pint of witch hazel. This has won
derful astrinsent and tonic properties. It
quickly effaees all kinds of wrinkles, no
matter how caused, making the skin firm.
smooth and young looking.

Four Score and Ten, Mrs. Kimball
Establishes Fine Knitting Record

In a deep, sunny window Of a
quaint, old house in Council Bluffs
sits beautiful old lady, her smooth,
white hands flying in and out
among long strands of gray wool,
Click, click her knitting needles go,
and in an incredibly short space OF
time a pair of warm socks have
been completed for some man in
the uniform of his country.
Mrs. Lucy P. Kimball is the name
of this patriotic knitter, and before
she passes her Goth milestone on
November II she hopes to COM
plete 100 pairs of these warm ar
ticles, so badly needed by our boys
in the trenches. Ninety-four pairs
of socks have been made by Mrs,
Kimball up to date, but she laugh
ingly says that as six more are no
task at all she is confident of round
ing out her 100 pairs before the great
clock of time tolls her Goth birth
day.
Grandma" Kimball, as. she is
fondly called, may truly say that she
is go years young" After resi-
dence of % years in Council Bluffs
she numbers her friends by the
legion and finds time to visit them
all.
One hears much of the modern
grandmother, and Mrs. Kimball,
with her snowy hair, dainty cap Of
lace and lavender ribbons. and tiny
shawl, seems like picture from the
past, but when one speaks of the
events in the great world, and
hears her comments, it Is evident
that she is abreast of the times in
every way. Born in Vermont in
1923, Mrs. Kimball remembers the
civil war days wildly. and the blue
eyes grow sad as she tells of seeing
her friends and neighbors march
away, to give their lives for the
union.
The great conflict in which the
world is now engaged makes even
that sad time seem almost bright,
Mrs. Kimball said, in the face of the
anguish in which the universe is
now stepped. Every newspaper is
read eagerly by this dear old lady,
so soon to be fourscore and ten, and

Drink a glass Of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out poisons.

Life is not merely to live, but to
live well, eat well, digest we'll, work
well, sleep well, look well. What a

how very easy it is if one will only

Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise,

cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid
stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh
as a daisy by opening the sluices
of the system each morning and
flushing out the whole of the inter-
nal poisonous stagnant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful of lime
stone phosphate in it to wash from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and bow
els the previous days indigestible

for breakfast.
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism;
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compilations are
urged to get quarter pound of
limestone phosphate from the drug
store which will cost very little, but

A Method Which You Can Use With
as Much Ease and Safety as Using
Your Favorite Face Cream. A
Toilet Luxury. An Effective
Way to Remove Wrinkles.
By Valeska Suratt.


4 F someone should tell you that it is
now possible to remove superfluous
hair as easily as applying your face
lotion, and with just as much safety, with
out in the least harming the skin, wouldn't
you think it too good to be true, Yet.
it is fact. The article that will do It
has been discovered. As result, you can
use this hair remover frequently and with
perfect freedom, knowing that 1t will new
err fail and that the skin will be left ex-
quisitely soft, smooth and white, without a
trace of any red spot or irritation to tell
you used anything for superfluous hairs.
Get from the drug store some sulfo solu-
ton. Wet the hairs with this, and watch
them shrivel right up, so that you can
just wipe off the dead hairs with your
finger. You can do this in the arm-pits,
on the hands, arms, face, shoulders, ankles
or any delicate skin with perfect safety.
1t is no longer necessary to shave-some-
thing which causes hairs to become stiff
and bristly, and unmanageable.
"SCALP"-Accumulat of scurf and
scales on the scalp are the very frequent
cause of falling hair, because they form
seal" covering the pores and restrict
ing the free growth of the hair. The
usual soaps, scrubbing and shampeos do
little good in removing them. To do it
effectively. they should be dissolved
away. This is done quickly and thor
ougbly by using eggol, a pearly powder,
teaspoonful of which in a cup of water
will surprise you with the cleanliness it
gives to your scalp. A package of eggol
costs about twenty-five cents at any
drug store. and is sufficient to give a
dozen or more shampoos. 1t gives the
hair splendid sheen of health and vigor.

Childish Quarrels.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
/ went with young man steady
over year who has been in France
over year. / am II years old now.
Is it right of me to go with other
young men? I really am in love
with another young man, but 1t
seems like we never can agree on
things. We had a quarrel over a
week ago and I told him he didn't
need to come again. Now l regret
it and wish himHto come again. What
should I do and which one should
go with? BETSY.
Run about with all the boys. Why
not? Don't worry over the boy
whom you sent away. He will re-
turn to you If he wants to, 1t isn't
likely you are very deeply in love
with him. Why not forget this love
business and just be a jolly, happy
girl, friends with all the boys and
silly about none of them?
