YOUR BEAUTY
ADVICE TO
LOVELORN
.--By Beatrice Faiffaz-
What About Kisses!
=, nrrrc n,AIunAX.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Just as sure as fate the subject
of kisses recurs from time to time
in letters to this column. That is
not remarkable. considering the
important part kisses play in ro-
nance.
"Dear Miss Fairfax" writes
Grateful" on this ever-popular
theme. II have been reading your
letters for a long time and they
interest me a great deal. VIII
you please print an article on
kissing? Is there any harm IN
it? My friend says kissing is per-
fectly natural. He is serious In
his convictions, not flippant.
''He says he cares for me and
believe him. We are both young
and go out quite bit. he re-
spects me and / respect him.
: Will he lose his respect for me
il l let him kiss me? What am
l TO do?"
/ have written many articles,
Grateful, on the subject to which
you refer, but here is little chat
about kisses especially for you
and girls facing your problem
CONGRATULATIONS! A sincere
friendship with mutual respect is
one of the most precious things OF
youth and life. Your friend
speaks the truth when he says
kisses are natural. A kiss Is a
natural caress of love among most
races. For that very reason it
should be respected and dedicated
to love. A girl cheapens ana
commentaries her kisses when
she gives them in exchange for
treats and to every acquaintance
or friend.
Men naturally like to kiss pretty
girls. But the more particular
you are about your kisses, re-
serving them for the man you
will one day love, and who viii
prove his love for you by a pro-
posal of marriage, the higher
value your kisses will have in his
eyes and the eyes of all men.
What is gained without effort
soon satiates, or at least Is sell
dom appreciated.
Each girl must eventually decide
for herself the question of re-
fusing or granting her kisses. But
may 1 suggest that If you with.
hold kisses, saving them for the
man you love and marry, you Will
earn his priceless gratitude.

and experiences have nodded
If you feel that your lips are
ugly, ask yourself whether you
cannot shape them gradually into
aweeter, more gracious lines by
changing your habits of Thought
and mannerisms. For instance, it
Is an undeniable fact that Optim-
Ism and laughter curve the lips
gently upward. while depression
pulls down their corners.
Watch yourself in the glass at
q moment, when you are full OF
resentment. See how hard and
straight and ugly the lines of your
lips grow. So it is that we fashion
our lips daily, yearly into perma.
nent lines of grace or ugliness by
the thoughts and emotions We en-
courage or fail to shut out from
consciousness.
There are certain characteristics
of the mouth that cannot be al
tered. A large mouth is likely TO
remain large; thick lips cannot be
greatly altered. Even plastic sur
gerry hesitates to attempt making
over the mouth and lips, Such
operations are seldom, indeed, sue
cessful. But a large mouth can
be altogether delightful when it is
humorous, generous and delicately
curved by years of gracious think
ing.
A thick.lipped mouth Is not
often beautiful. To some extent,
thickness can be diminished by
keeping the lips very wholesome
and free from any chapped swol-
len appearance that might in
crease their seeming size. Use of
q good lip lotion or pomade not
once but many times day on ,1ps
inclined to grow chapped and
swollen with dry wind. Avoid
mannerisms, such as twitching or
biting the lips, or handling them
with the fingers, which may dis
tort and thi,ken them.
Here is an excellent lip cream
10 aply each night before retiring
which should efface the tiny lines
that often form in the lips during
the day:
Oil Of. sweet almonds, So grams.
White wax, II grams.
Spermaceti, IA grams.
Oil Of bergamot, n gram.
Oil of geranium or oil of jasmine,
1 gram.
Melt the wax and spermaceti
over a slow fire in tiny frying
pan. Remove them from the heat.
and slowly add the almond oil.
Beat the mass with Dover egg
heater. When it is nearly cold,
empty it into a wide-mouthed jar.
When it is stone cold, add the per-
fume oils. r.
In applying makeup to your
lips, touch the center of your lips
first with your lip-stick. then let
It fade away gradually to the ends
and edges. Iy you apply lip-stiek
to your entire lips, they will look
large, hard and unnatural. Also,
rub in the lip rouge well to avoid
q crepe.Hke appearance Of the skin.
Choose lip rouge that matches the
natural, healthy color of your lips
and blends well with the hue of
your cheeks.
The supreme beauty of woman's
lips, however, is their wholesome
ness and the inner radiance re-
flected when she smiles.

These Informal Days
DEAR MRS. BEEcKMAN:

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
/. am in doubt as TO whether
a response should be made to
Thank you" / have been told
it is not correct to say, You
are welcome and then again Y
have been told that 1t is very
impolite not to say, You are
welcome. Please help me out.
2. lis it permissible to ask a
boy, whom you barely know and
who has not shown any atten.
tion to you, to party?
you are welcome" or You're
very welcome" or You're quite
welcome" is correct as a reply to
Thank you.' Sometimes, 1T is
a pleasure, /" or II am happy to
he able TO do It," or something Of
this kind is appropriate for spe-
sciaI occasions. THANK you very
much" is also often appropriate.
Sometimes only bow and a
smile are necessary. But some
courteous acknowledgements must
be made to a polite Thank you"
2. This does seem to me, as. OF
course, It seems to you, rather
far.fetched. but in these informal
days this certainly Is done.
Mainly 1t depends on the amount
of grace with which it is done.

TOO MUCH SAND

A good rule to follow likely is not
to be too critical and not to be ever
lastingly complaining but when there
are grounds for kick, then register.
Well it so happened that the editor
of the American was grounded the
other day-that is the car-on the
hill leading to the old bridge over
Kettle river near Rutledge on county
road w. In trying to get the car out
of the deep loose sand an axle was
broken, and of course the accident
should just happen when we were
hard pressed for time on business
errand to Duluth. While waiting for
help to pull out the disabled car, and
for another car to relay us to Duluth
about an hours wait-three auto
mobiles were stuck on that hill. How
many other cars have broken down in
the hard pull on this hill since it was
widened a month ago. we do not know,
but that it is causing expense and in
convenience to motorists goes without
saying. With very fine loose sand and
a dry season the road is almost i'm
passable for short stretch. A little
clay mixed in with the sand would
likely remedy this and folks who tray
ell on the road between Rutledge and
Askov would appreciate having this
improvement made.

4 GOOD COMBINATION

The Times Publishing company of
st. Cloud has recently acquired pos
session of the Journal Press company
of that city and has absorbed the
subscription list of that paper and
suspended its publication. Heretofore
the Journal Press plant has published
a weekly newspaper, Der Nordstern, -
halfTi in English and half in German
besides the regular daily edition. This
paper will be continued by the new
owners under the same editorhip as
before
Fred Schilplin, publisher and editor
of the Times, will find an able and
experienced associate in Alvah East
man, former editor of the Journal
Press, as Mr.. Eastman will be re-
tanned by the Times company as chief
editorial writer. This combination
has worked in separate avenues of en-
deavOr as competitors in the past, but
for the same general purpose-the
good of St. Cloud Now since they
will be hand in hand in their efforts.
much good can be accomplished.
