fiuous hair with fine toilet pumice
stone. as suggested in your column
some time ago, l think you advised
soaptng the face first with lather. /
have found it much better TO rub
the stone dry, lightly and rapidly
over the afflicted parts.
Please advise young girls not to do
anything with the fine hairs they dis
cover about the face. except TO keep
the hairs bleached with occasional ap-
plications of peroxide. Peroxide serves
to make those hairs practically in
visible. Isbelieve few girls would have
need to worry If they were given, and
needed, this counsel in early girlhood.
At the age of puberty the hair on
the face stands out straight, does not
lie down as II will after a year or two,
and it is just at that time that so
many girls start using depilatorieS.
No one who has ever used depila-
tories or other means, but will sorely
regret it. l would be glad if my face
were now as it was when l foolishly
started that habit. / have suffered
and l sympathize with any girl who
Is not well advised about this.
MRS. S. l.. J.
Every woman has a growth of down
on her face. This is ordinarily in
visible until you look very closely
for it. Looking at yourself like that
you are pretty sure. to find all sorts
of startling blemishes or faults. Don't
look; keep your distance; you do not
expect any one to insult you by
scrutinizing your face from u focal
distance of less than q foot.
The adhesive tape method proposed
by the Missouri girl is futile. She
may find the use of fine toilet pumice
stone a wise plan. Many women have
reported satisfaction in the more or
less constant use of pumice stone.
Whether this is less disagreeable with
the skin dry or lathered the young
woman may decide by experimenting.
Druggist supply a fine pumice stone
for toilet use and this should be used
frequently to keep the hair cleared
away all the time, but until accus-
toned to it. the skin becomes irritated
after a little rubbing. so it is we'll to
go easy with it at first. Some women
declare that after years of pumice
shaving they believe the hairs are di.
minished in number and in size or
heaviness. Some women find that the
use of peroxide and ammonia occa-
sionally for few years tends to
diminish the heaviness of the growth.
The Cheyenne correspondents advice
Is the best advice for the young girl
who discovers a threatened beard or
mustache-leave it severely alone for
two years.

Is just as well to notice the way the
buttons are fastened on and to arrange
with the filter wien she comes to
see about alterations to have all but
tons securely fastened before the
frock Is sent to you.
A prominent American dressmaker
has been using buttons profusely this
Winter, quite frequently buttons COW
cred with the material Of the frock.
Gold and silver buttons are especially
appropriate a season like this when
almost every frock, not actually made
of metal cloth shows metal trimming
somewhere about 1t.
For the woman who makes her
own frocks or has them made by a
home dressmaker the use of rows of
small buttons for trimming is an ex-
cellent expedient. For it requires no
great skill to fasten on buttons-they
may be used easily when beading or
braiding or embroidery would be sure
to look homemade and inexpert. The
sketch shows a frock from among
those made for the South. 1t is gray
georgette, with small rose e-colored but
tons, set in groups of twos and threes,
and rose-colored leather belt.

Fay informing her that they had all
agreed to keep the matter silent. he
believed, of course. that the others
would keep the promise they had
made. For a time he had not been
sure Of Elsie, but he felt that Dean
and Jack would influence her and
make her ashamed to go back on her
word, SO that, as it happened. he
knew nothing about Elsie's having
blurted out the whole thing to George
Waldron.
He did not know that at the very
moment of his writing the note to
Fay, the news was already beginning
to seep through the hotel, and he went
to bed that night sure that Fay's ad-
venture would not be Immediately
discovered.
BY morning, however, every one in
the hotel knew all there was to know.
Fay's name was on every tongue and
the comments made We're many and
varied.
