My Secrets
of Charm
By Josephine Huddleston

s-Ts HE gay, laughing eyes Of
youth and health have 30
long been the highlight Of
q woman's charm and beauty
that | wonder why more women
don't pay attention to these men,
bers so that the illusion Of youth
and buoyant spirits are not mar
red by red, iniamed appearing
orbs encircled by lines and dark
bands.
Physically, Of course, health
is important to eye beauty, but
for most of the minor troubles
that befall these important men,
bers there seems to be q pre-
ventive or precaution treat
ment that will Offset the beauty
destroying effect Of pain-filled
and red-appearing eyes.
Today we take up the matter
Of caring for the eyes while mo-
toring or bathing. August and
September sun and wind are
more harmful to the beauty Of
the eyes than at any other sea
son. Then, too, the irritation
suffered from such exposure
takes the Joy out Of the most
inspired festivities.
Giving the eyes the necessary
care and attention so that they
not only appear cleax and spark
ling but that the fine, sensitive
nerves are kept healthy, really is
n simple matter when approached
sensibly and systematically.
Shades which fit snugly
around the eyes and 90 prevent
the rays Of the sun from shining
directly into them not only
prevent red, swollen and tired
eyes, but ward off the Hna lines
that often appear from squirting
or from forcing the eyes to re-
main open in such glaring light.
Such shades may be purchased at
any stationery store and should
be worn on the beach or at any

What's New i'm Fashions?
Choosing Evening Accessories
Betty -onnLee-

- INcE the illustration to-
- day 10 that Of an evening
gown, lst me say a few
words about evening a~ccessor-
les. Evening accessories, like
other accessories, are being plan
ned more and more to have q
definite relationship TO the type
of dress, its fabric and the oc-
casion.
If the dress material il plain
the accessories are chosen to sup
ply color, while il the dress is
fancy, slippers, bag and so forth
are of great simplicity. This
trend, which is particularly
marked this season, has given
rise to many Innovations in the
designs Of all items as finishing
touches, whether Of jewelry or
of actual parts of the costume.
A new evening bag of distinc-
ton has a gold frame set with
coral baguettes and the body part
of sheer metal lace studded with
coral and other stones. The
frame is slightly curved and
finished with a raised clasp OF
the coral.
Group strands Of cue crystals
are stylish for the new necklaces.
Six and more strands are en-
ployed in this treatment, the
beads being Of graduated sizes
and each bead separated by q
crystal rondel. A necklace OF
French design is made Of inch
length crystal tubes with stubby
looking rondels separating them.
Rings are now made with sre-
cial attention as to size and col
oring, SO that they will match the
new styles. The semi precious
stones are used with fine mount
ings. including amethysts, to-
PAGES, lspis lazuli, onyx, tur-
quoises and pearls.
The gown pictured here Is OF
pale corn yellow flat crepe with
low decolletage trimmed with
lovely velvet flowers in a slightly
deeper shade. The high waistlins

water, and under such circum-
stances some form OF treatment
should DO given Immediately
after exposure if the eyes are
at all sensitive. This will pre-
vent them from becoming blood
shot and infamed.
Boric acid solution used in an
eye cup to bathe the eyes Is an
old. reliable remedy that always
is extremely valuable. The eye
cup should be slightly warmed,
so that the sudden shock is not
too great. Then. with the cup
half filled with horic acid solu-
ton, hold It close to the eye. so
that it fits snugly, and tilt the
head back. Blink the eyelids
Be Sure You're Right
ITO remove stains it Is neces-
sary to know the correct
method of procedure. Other
wise, though the night materials
are used, the stain is often very
difficult 10 remove.
Try Kerosene
Kerosene is a good disinfectsnt.
It should be used in the toilet
regularly.
Stoning Raisins
IL raisins are warmed before
being stoned they will stone
quite easily.

Oak trimming can be bright

Crude Oil Helps
Keep the Scalp
Fresh

@RUDE oil is, perhaps, one OF
the very best oils obtain
able for correcting mil
types Of scalp and hair troubles.
Crude oil Is just exactly what the
name implies; it means raw oil
Just as it comes from the ground
and before IL goes through the
various refining processes.
This Is not the daintiest treat
ment for the hair, but It will
repay you a hundred fold. II lyon
want to stop your hair from fall
ing, IL you want TO increase it,
growth, both in length and in
thickness; il you want to have
beautifully luxurious hair there
Is no better way to achieve it
than bg the treatment outlined
below.
The first step il to brush the
hair thoroughly, then part the
hair and pat the crude oil along
the line Of the part. Now place
another part an inch away, and
pat the oil along this part. Con-
tinue parting the hair and apply
ing the oil directly 70 the scalp
until the entire head has been
gone over.
Pressing the finger tips firmly
against the head, rotate the fin
gers 10 that the scalp moves
along with their action. This
finished, tie a heavy towel over
next morning with a thorough
shampoo. IL may be rather hard

but II can be done If the hair is
thoroughly Ehampooed.
These treatments, given the
scalp once each week or ten days,
will prove extremely identifying

strength Of the eyes and causes
untold pain and discomfort when
precautions are immediate cor
receive treatments are ignored.
The most sensible and practical
thought of course. Is to enjoy the
beach or motor trip to its fullest
and the only way this II possible
IL In knowing full well that one
Is not going to pay the price OF
sunhurn either to the eyes or
skin.
Because OF the reflection OF
the suns rays on the sand and
water extra precautions should
be taken when going to the beach
Although one doesn't have the
same glazing rays while motor
ing, the bright light and the ac-
companying dust and wind cause
equally as much discomfort IL

rapidly for two or three seconds,
then put fresh solution into the
cup and repeat the treatment for
the other eye. Allow the eyes
and surrounding area to dry and
do not rub or pat them.
Another splendid treatment for
soothing these members Is the use
of pads over the closed lids. Sat
urate a pad of absorbent cotton
with witch hazel and hold over
the closed lids for a minute or
two, then replace with a fresh
