ating a home. She is, I am
sure, q matrimonial prize.
More than this, Caroline has
fallen very much in love with
an excellent young man who
adores her and wants to marry
her.
This young girls mother died
five years ago, leaving in her
care four young children. An
overwhelming legacy, for a girl
of IA. But she cheerfully
accepted the role of little
mother and has made a bril-
liant success of it. Meanwhile
the sickly father has had to
struggle very hard to provide
the rent and the bread-and-
milk Suppers.
Now, Caroline has become a
young woman. She has a de-
lightful and impatient lover
who would like to marry her
without a moments delay. His
kind-heartedness has led him to
offer to take one of the chill

But this would leave the
weak, over-worked, widowed
father with three small chill

would give them the care that
they need during the next 10
years?

would take her place--since it
is unlikely that the father
would marry again. She would

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Although I am not married
yet, I have purchased my sill
yer and intend to have it ini'
tailed. Is it correct to have the
initial of my first name, last
name or the initial of the last
name Of my husband to be?
H. w.
The best form, according to
my taste, is for the bride-to-
be to use, in monograming her
silver or linen, the initials of
her maiden name. This has
been the custom and the con-
vention always. since little girls
were taught delicately and ar,
tiStically to embroider the lin
ems for their hope chests with
their own initials, since, natu-
rally, they did not then know
what the initials of the Prince
Charming were to be.
must register here, however,
that Of late there has grown up
an attitude on the part of some
radical-minded young ladies that
they wish to use the initials of
the married name. That is, If
Mary Smith is to marry John
Jones, she insists on using the
initials that she will use when
she Is married, M. S. j. am
not in sympathy with this atti-
tude. for I think that it de-
Stroys fine old custom chat
the girl should respect. To the
new home the girl brings the
silver and the linen. her trous-
seau, and it is. I think, consis-
tent that they be marked with
the initials that were hers when
they are marked. It doesn't
seem good form or good taste
for her to use the initial Of the
name that is not yet hers.
BrideS-to-be who are sensitive
minded to this sort of thing use
the initials of their maiden
names.

THE BEAUTY
BOX
BY Helen FOllett.

Monotony is a sledge hammer
that kills the bloom of youth.
No woman who goes through the
routine of household duties
every day, without some kind Of
recreation, can keep young and
peppy. There should be at
least one hour spent out of
doors to wash out the lungs
with fresh air, to get the bcre-
fit Of sunshine, to cut loose
from the endless small duties
of the home. To "live for ones
family" may be noble and un-
selfish but it dulls a woman's
wits and beckons on the evil
dence of the years. Contacts
outside the home help to keep
a woman on her toes.
Before starting the shampoo
the scalp should be massaged
for three or four minutes. This
beauty rite brings the flesh to a
glow and helps to loosen any
dandruff that may be present.
Immediately after the tubing
the scalp should be rubbed
briskly again. BY friction the
blood streams are busted, and it
is upon the blood streams that
the hair lives and has it's being.
The Washington times., 1930-03-03

M. Lelong says that opposi-
ton to the new silhouette is
the result of misconception of
the fundamentals involved, and
of the way the Paris couturiere
intended the clothes to be worn.
They were exaggerated before
they we're properly launched.
Many have been created with
out a true sense of proportion
or a logical reason for their
existence.
Fashions follow the trend of
our daily lives, and are deter
mined by the needs of active
women. Many people have an
idea that the reverse is true,
but M. Lelong does not believe
so. '"The need creates the gown"
in many cases. For instance,
the interest women took in
active sports a few seasons ago
gave sports-like feeling to all
clothes, even for evening. Now
women have put sports in
their proper place, they indulge
in them but do not pursue
them with the ferver of a fad
dist, so that sports clothes are
merely for sports and nothing
more.
M. Lelong shows five types

riage impossible-and she has
dismissed her sweetheart. It
it scarcely likely that he could
wait 10 years for her. She
has no thought of asking him
to do it. 1t is also by no means
certain that at the end Of 10
years second desirable lover
would promptly present him
self. So not only is she suffer
ing heartbreak from denying
herself love at this moment,
but it is also probable that
this young heroine is renounc-
ing marriage forever.
Should Caroline, who has
been so faithful, who has lost
so much Of youth, decide to
live her own life and accept her
legitimate happiness?
Or should she insist that her
duty to the children who regard
her almost as a mother comes
before the claim of the man
