MILADY BEAUTIFUL

BY LOIS LEEDS.

blonde with an oily scalp usually
finds that her hair looks pretty and
fluffy for only a few days after her
shampoo and then the natural oil
makes it strihgy and hard to manage.
A dry shampoo must be taken to
restore the hair to presentable
condition.
i aif-sl>in whether on blonde or
brunette must be protected from sun
and wind very. carefully TO prevent
freckles. coarsening and drying of
the skin. A light coating of founda-
tion cream and powder should be
applied before venturing out of doors.
One big advantage in being brunette
is that one may wear rich, warm
colors which make blonde type look
faded. Strong colors that express
youth and vivacity set off the beauty
of dark hair and eyes.
SO, on the whele, ] do not think
that any girl should regret that she
was not born to be a blonde. 1t is not
so much the color of her hair that
gives milady her charm. hut it is the
attractiveness of her personality, her
taste in selecting harmonious cos
tunes and her ability to get along
with others. My advice TO the young
girl whose fair tresses are turning
brown is to let Nature have her way,
since bleached blonde hair never har-
monies with ones skin tints, and
besides it is troublesome TO keep Ii an
even color.

When He Falls for Best Friend.
BY MIMI.

Evelyn has the old embarrassing
problem which so many of us have
had to face at one time or another.
She has been Johnnie'S best gal for
six months and now she's not his best
gal any more. Her chum. Muriel. has
captured the young mans tickle fancy,
and Evelyn sits drearily on the ledge
OF the picture.
1t isn't that she feels so awfully had
over Johnnie's observation-disclosures
she had felt she cared quite hit for
him. It's the having to meet him
with Murel-the constant necessity
for polite conversation with him--the
ever-present difficulty of trying not
to show she remembers--Which gets
on her nerves so.
How" she asks. may | best meet
this difficult situation? Shall l keep
out of their way and refuse to go on
parties with Muriel and Johnnie?
Shall / just be dignified and civil with
him? Or should | be angry because
he's treated me so badly--for he really
has been awfully mean"
She asks a question | am receiving
every day. Girls all over the country
want to know how to treat the boys
who have Tilted them publicly.
And my answer is always the same

If Evelyn looks the picture of a for
saken tragedy queen. Johnnie will ex
perience a certain amount of satisfac-s 4
tion-or he'll feel embarrassed, if he's
a nice kid.
Her plan to be dignified and civil
isn't so good eitherI;for it will be a
change from her normal manner and
that will remind the young Romeo
that he has blighted her life.
The one thing she must not do is
to change her manner in the slightest
degree.
She must concentrate on being Just
as light and fiippant and friendly as
possible.
Even in this she has to be careful
for If she overdoes the light f1ippancy
stuff, her pose will be seen through
Evelyn has hard job ahead of her,
but she can accomplish it successfully
If she will really put her mind to It,
No thoughts of self-pity must enter
her young head--she must sternly re-
fuse to let her mind entertain thoughts
of what used to be.
Nor must she, for one instant, refer
to the old times with Johnnie, except
in casual. amused sort of way.

they've caused girl.
Evelyn Mustn't for a minute be
moved by that kind of talk Johnnie
has thrown her over. Very well, then,
let her accept the fact, and let her
bend all her energies to concealing
both from him and from her best
friend the hurt she is feeling
The only possible way to meet a sit
uation of this sort is with a bright
smile and an easy, friendly manner.

Tom thought of all these things as
he watched her hustle around. She
wore a wine-colored dress and a coat

had insisted on buying appropriate
things for her to take away with her.
Somehow, he coundn't stand the idea
of Myra's overshadowing her, but al
though he hadn't told her so, he had
gone in debt to buy her going away
clothes. Of course, after she was
gone he intended to work much harder

anything else. --==s>~= - --
Myra came to the door. Bill was

said on both sides. A true golden
blond head of hair on an adult is
unusual enough to give it unique
value apart from Its real beauty, just
as ermine or chinchilla are priced for
their rarity. Dark beauty is more

This type Of beauty fades sooner than

Fair hair needs more frequent
