Heart Problems

Dear Mrs Thompson: How many
times is it proper for young man
with whom you are not acquainted TO
ask YOU to dance in one evening?
Do you think if I continue to let a
young man dance with me and refuse
to let him take me home he will lose
interest in me and quit asking me to
dance with him?
When a young woman and young
man dance together several times who
have not been introduced, which
should ask the others name first?
ANXIOUS.
II is not proper for a young man
with whom you are not acquainted to
ask you to dance at all. He should
FIRST get an introduction. 1t is per
missible for a girl to dance with her
escort several times, but not more
than twice with the other young men
of her acquaintance.
! would certainly advise you to let
the Young man take you home. If your
reason for not wanting him to go to
your home is because it is not as nice
as you wish, you are suffering from
false pride. If disorder is the reason
your personal appearance will counter
act the bad impression and the young
man will see that you are neat and
attractive in contrast.
Since a young woman and young
man who have not been introduced are
not supposed to dance with each other
there is no etiquette governing the
S>king of names.

BEAUTIFYING BATHS.

So here are a few hints
If you have tendency toward rheu-

or if you like the luxury of Turkish
bath-which is marvellous for health
and beauty too-try a steam bath In
your own bath room. If you have one

with a couple of blankets drawn over

! A better way is to place a large basin
of boiling water under chair, then sit
on the chair with a large towel over

your neck to the floor. This holds in

pores of the skin, clear them, and rid
