Rv MARIE PAIlLETTE


Youth today has the earth with
a fence around 1t. At least so
it seems in the world Of fashions.
The French couturiers certainly
favor these young folk a great
deal. They are constantly plan,
ming and thinking UP new ideas
for the young people. No wonder
they always look so outstandingly
smart.
The Style No. S13S is dignified
as we'll as smart. 1t stimulates
the tuck-in blouse styling through
tight fitting hip band. The belt
in narrow tie string falling loosely
at left side front and knotted
end, is quite unique, and ex.
ceptionally youthful idea.
The attached skirt has soft
gathers at front, with perfectly
slim and straight back.
The collarless Vionnet neckline,
chooses a throw SCARF tie, favor
lite of chic Parisienne.
Sleeves are particularly dainty
with flaring rundown ruffles.
This charming dress combines
brown silk crepe with beige silk
crepe with effective embroidery in
brown.
1t is designed in sizes 16, Is,
20 years, IS, SS, 40 and AZ inches
bust.
It's just a splendid opportunity
to make 1t right now for i'm
mediate wear, and II will prove
quite a smart addition to your
fall wardrobe.
1t is very chic in purple wool
jersey with the bodice and hip
yoke in lighter purple shade. or
in printed wool jersey with plain
harmonizing tone.
In black crepe satin It is very
pretty with the skirt cut from
the shiny surface OF crepe with
the rest of dress cut from the
dull surface.

wine red canton crepe, printed
and plain silk crepe, tomato red
silk crepe, navy blue wool crepe
and slate blue crepe Elizabeth

In the medium size, 1t takes
IN yards 39'inch material for

Thin Legs
DEAR MADAME JERITZA:


7 am much embarrassed by my
very thin legs. arms, neck and

Will you please be kind enough
to print a cream formula and give
me an idea as to how much the
cost would be? DOLLY
Any good cold cream that is a
skin food should help you out,
Dolly. If you pat 1t very vigorously
into your thin neck, face, legs and
arms There are many on the
market. The benefit arises mostly
from improved circulation due to
the massage, for literally there is
no such thing as a cosmetic skin
food. The skin is fed from within
by pure blood.
Eat plenty of nouGishing, fat
tening food in wellbalanced meals,
exercise moderately. sleep nine
hours nightly, keep calm and avoid
worry IL you would grow fat.

How to Gain Weight

DEAR NINE. JERITZA:
I am girl of fifteen, height
5 feet 8 inches and l weigh SO
pounds. Will you please tell me
how I can gain weight? 1 thank
you. F. P.
You are indeed under weight,
my dear little girl for you should
The Washington times., 1929-08-26

balance the scales at about 12O
pounds.
Is your health all 1t should be?
II not, my advice is, look up
your family doctor and ask him
to help you gain your normal
weight. After personal exami-
nation he should be able to tell
you just what would be best for
you to do in order to gain health
and weight at the same time.
But IL your health is perfect,
and still You just can't get plump,
why do you not try drinking milk
with the cream left in? A quart
each day would not be too much
for you. And in addition, drink
six glasses of water daily.
Sleep all you can, nine hours
every night il possible, in a cool
dark, quiet, well-ventilated room.
Sleep alone.
Eat simple, nourishing food
daintily served. And when you eat,
think pleasant, CHEEKY thoughts.
Walk two miles every day, but not
to fast. After you walk lie down
fifteen minutes, then have a. choc-
olate iced matted milk or. cup Of
hot chocolate with whipped cream,
midway between meals.
I hope and feel sure that IL you
follow my suggestions, especially
in regard to seeing your doctor,
you will soon look and feel much
better and gain pounds and also
naturally rosy cheeks. Good luck!
The Washington times., 1929-08-26

You were wise to stop curling
your hair, especially during the
summer months. 1t will be
much better for you to have it
water-waved or finger.waved,
instead. Then go bareheaded as
much as you can, to give it free
access to sunlight, and oxygen.
Never wear a tight, heavy hat.
Every evening before rstiring
massage your scalp by lifting
every portion of it between your
thumb and fingers over and over.
That will help circulation, and
poor circulation usually is the
cause of thin hair.
Before each shampoo, rub in
o good oily tonic, such as this:
Oil of sweet almonds. s ounces;
oil Of rosemary, 2 drains; oil of
mace, so drops.
Leave this mixture on your
scalp an hour. then wash it out
gently but thoroughly with
melted CASTLE soap and many
finsings. Squeeze the juice of
half a lemon into the last rinse.

Drink Water to
Help Wash Out
Kidney Poison
II Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers You, Begin
Taking Salts

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with
a lot Of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you
keep your bowels clean, by flushing
them with mild, harmless salts
which helps to remove the body's uri-
nous waste and stimulates them to
their normal activity. The function
of the kidneys is to filter the blood.
In "a hours they strain from 1t 500
grains of acid and waste, so we can
readily understand the vital impor-
lance of keeping the kidneys active.
Drink lots of good water-yOu can't
drink too much; also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts: take a tablespoonful in glass
of water before breakfast each morn
ing for few days and your kidneys
may then act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
has been used for years to help clean
and stimulate clogged kidneys; also
to neutralize the acids in the system
so they are no longer source of irri-
tation, thus often relieving bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts Is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink, which everyone
should take now and then to help keep
their kidneys clean and active. Try
this; also keep up the water drinking.
and no doubt you will wonder what
became of your kidney trouble and
backache.

shaggy youth topped off the animals
in Fosters string before the older man
would mount them. AS Bangs went
about his work his faded blue eyes
were ever turned toward the Three
Bar boss who stood In the door of
the blacksmith shop.
The girl was vaguely troubled as
she noted this. Bangs and Foster had
returned for their second season at
the Three Bar. All through the pre-

When-many years ago-the duke
of Edinburgh, son of Queen Victoria,
visited Australia, he was taken to
celebrated merino sheep breeding dis
trict, relates D. M. Dow, secretary to
the commissioner for Australia In the
United States. A certain wealthy
landowner was selected as host for the
royal visitor, who was to be his guest
for one day and one night.
A few days before the dukes arrival
the landowner inspected his mansion
with a view to discovering a possible
absence of some feature essential to
residence about to be honored by the
presence of royalty. There were no
books. OF course, there should be
