Do you remember the days
when braid was one Of the
smartest ways Of trimming a
dress? When you went in a
store ond looked over the braids,
compar them for size,
matched your color, and then
had your dressmaker put on
elaborate scrolls and fol-de-rols
of braid. A dress wasn't much
of a dress without some sort OF
trimming, and braid was a fav-
orite. And braid Is coming back.
is back now. It's just another
revival of the Edwardian era,
another way of making our
clothes feminine without being
fussy, Of getting a bit Of orna-
mentation without spelling their
simple lines.
Usually Matches
Braid must be simply used
this year, and it nearly always
matches the dress in color, black
braid on a black dress, or brown
on brown. Once in a while you
will see smart exception in a
black dress with just a touch OF
white braid, or beige on brown.
1t gives more body to the mate
rial, makes a cape or epaulettes
stand out stiff and straight,
makes girdle stand wide in
stead of crushing too closely.
It's good to use as accent to i'm
portant lines Of the dress, or
merely as ornamentation on a
jabot or capelet.
Rough crepe, very rough
weave, makes the braid-trimmed
dress that we've sketched today.
Braid is used very simply on the
dress, but quite generously on
the cape, so that it is heavier,
and more like a tiny wrap.
Without the cape, it is a splen-
did dress for general daytime
wear. With it, you have prac-
tical street costume. 1t is priced
$16.50, and comes in black or
wine in a downtown store.
For further fashion infOrma-
ton, or for the name of the
store where you can find this
dress, write Miss Laville, enclOs-
ing a self-addreSSed, stamped
envelope, or call District $3.50,

Advice to the LoveIorn
By Beatrice Fairfax

I'm only young, not snobbish.
Please tell me what I can do
to overcome my baShfulness.
BASHFUL.
That easy, graceful, man-of-
the-World manner that you'd
like to have is only acquired
with practice-like playing
cards, learning to dance, sing
ing, playing the piano. Go out
all you can, meet all the peo-
pie you CAN, till the embarraSs-
ing Shyness wears off. Try not
to think of yourself-just say
this fellow I'm taking around
isn't I-he's just a pupil I'm
training, and after a while the
bashfulneSS will decrease. Girls
like to have boys tell them they
look charming, that they dance
well, and you can always talk
about the movies, baseball and
things like that.

Fashion Fads and
Fancies

A careful blend of the old and
new is to be found in the latest
fashions. On an ultra-modern
model of dull black crepe with
a high nodded bustline and a
capelet that fastens at the cen
ter is edged with old fashioned
black silk fringe, placed on the
cape.
Go away and wear smart new
travel fashions. A grand coat
frock to wear en- route is of red
and white sheer woolen mixture
with a rose tone. 1t fastens all
the way down with buttons and
there is a circular WaiSt-length
capelet which faStenS high
about the neck.
Just one satin outfit for eve
ming seems to be the rule of al
most every outfit; no matter
how many other fabrics are
liked. A stunning new ensemble
is of off-white Iustrous satin
and has a matching jacket trim
med with double bands of gray
fox to stress shoulder breath.

Bridge Prizes

Dear Mrs. BeeCkman:
gave bridge party in honor
of one of the girls who was 60

present" and the guest also had
high score so I also gave her
the first prize.
Since then some of the girls
said I was wrong in giving the
prize to my guest, when I had
given her a present. Then some
think she was wrong for accept
ing it, that she should have
given it to the girl who was Sec
ond high.
We both feel very badly about
it. I feel that as I gave the
party, bought both the gifts,
the prize and the guest present
myself, and as my friend was
going away, it was perfectly
right. However, I would appre-
ciate your kindness if you will
give us your views on this mat
ter.
My thanks to you. D.

Your Health
And Diet
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.


tuberculosis is an insidious
disease. The early symptoms
are usually not very noticeable
or troublesome. There is sell
dom pain, that great alarm
clock of the system, to warn
the victim of danger. The dis
ease unfolds so slowly that one
can hardly put his finger on
the day, or the week, or the
month, or even the year which
separates good health from
poor.
Herein lies one of Its great
est dangers-that the process
will be so far advanced before
it is recognized that treatment
will be rendered prolonged and
sometimes futile.
But there are other things
which stand in the way of its
recognition. One is the feel
ing many people have that it
is somehow a disgrace to have
tuberculosis. And the other is
the dread of the disease. Of
course there is nothing in either
OF those. 1t is no more shame
full to have tuberculosis than
to have measles. And a person
with tuberculosis is no longer
a pariah to be Stunned by or
to Shun his fellow men. And
there are few diseases, no
chronic diseases, for which
there is SO much hope from
proper treatment.
OF all diseases, then, it is
the one of which everyone
should know the early symp-
toms and be prepared to recog-
nize them in his or her own
person.
Fatigue probably is the
earliest symptom and the one
most difficult to evaluate.
Everyone is fatigued some
times. Everyone is often ia
tlgued without reason. Fatigue
Is also a symptom of many
dlseases-in fact, of nearly all
diseases. When, then, does it
mean tuberculosis.
The fatigue of tuberculosis
is an abnormal fatigue-over-
poWering, an aching fatigue,
numbing all the fiberS and
senses of the body. It comes
on irrespective of any previous
effort or activity.
Besides its quality it should
be suspicious that fatigue oc-
ours often in a young person.
Another point is fatigue in a
young person who is under
weight and generally under par.
Other early symptoms in
clude gradual loss of weight,
or stationary underweight.
People from 20 to 80 normally
should very slowly increase in
weight. Or at least be we'll
within the proper weight limits
and stationary.
An attack of pleurisy always
Is to be regarded with suspicion
as indicative of the onset of
tuberculosis. This is especially
true of pleurisy with the ac-
emulation Of fluid in the chest,
but is also true of the so-called
dry pleuriSy.
Splitting Of blood, or a gush
of blood from the lungs into
the mouth Chemorrhage) may
be an early, indeed, the first
symptom of the disease. 1t is
a terrifying experience. but it
may be the luckiest thing that
can happen because it is suf-
fiCiently sudden and aWsinSpir-
ing that the person who has
it will know something is wrong
and seek medical advice.

CHAPTER 25

Aunt Julia wasn't surprised
that she was to be witness
at the tiny wedding. She eX-
pected it. Took it as her right.
Her only surprise was that
Joe's mother was to be in
cluded.
Fortunately she couldn't know
what was going on across the
street:
IF you can't have your own
sisters and brothers to your
own wedding, then l give up"
Mrs. Carey was saying. crying
and darhing Joe's best black
silk socks with stout gray darn
ing cotton at the same time.
You're a meanie if you
don't let me. Meanie, meanie,
meanie-" Vivian, the baby of
the family was crying, too.
"See, the poor kid, how can
you reIuSe ner. Joe:
"I wanta be the flower girl.
! wanta be the"
We'll, you can't. I amt got
time to make you the dress.
Now 1 told you that, didn't I?
All I'm askin' is for your
brother"
Then if I can't be the flower
girl I don't care. won't go.
/ don't care if the whole family
goes. I won't"
Happy Family
Joe, do you think her white
lingerie would do, if 1 done it
up nice? With a big pink bow
or somethin', Joe? What the
poor kid needs is a pertinent.
All the kids has them. Those
old kinks I put in with the
iron! Stop crying, lover. May
be your brother'll let you have
one. He's got so much money
nowadays"
Vivian's sobs stopped mirac-
ulously.
"Oh, keen! But no old pink
sash, thank you. I want a
ne-y blue slip, to go under my
dreSS!"
Ruthie, the mousy 15-year-
old, whose feelings were al
ways hurt, Sobbed once, and
ran from the room.
Vivian, go see what's the
matter with your sister!" Joe
insisted, giving the now radiant
Vivian push towards the
door.
mo, never mind, lover, Joe,
that'd just make it worse. She's
jealous. Wants a pertinent,
too. Wants every last thing
her little sister gets"
IF one gets it, so does the
other" ...~.
Very well, Joe. dear" his
mother said meekly.
But none of them goes to
the Wedding-that's flat"
"Joe, it don't hurt you, and if
1t gives the poor kid any fun to
be a flower girl, why do you be
so selfish? If it gives them any
fun"
"Oh. I wanta-Mama, make
him let me! Mama-make
him"
Edwina, who was doing her
algebra at the table, said, IF
anyone in this family goes, I'm
the logical one, being the only
unmarried young lady. Not that
I care, of course. It's just the
principle of the thing!"
Joe went for walk.

and Vivian, diSheveled and tear
full, but smiling. beside her.

Now He Has Switched to
Saturdays

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm greatly puzzled over
something. For over a year
now I have been going steady"
with a young man. We always
saw each other two or three
times a week, and sometimes
oftener, and we never missed
spending every Sunday to-
gether, but now he insists on
seeing me only on Saturday
evenings. AS 1 care for him
ever so much, do you think this
is his method of drifting away
frome me? Please be frank.
M. K. M.
When a young man drops
his calling ratio from three to
one and then sets the night, it
begins to look as if something
has interfered. But these are
days of ECONOMIC stress and
strain, when everyone is Wor-
ried over the ever more slippery
dollar, and this young man, to-
gether with many another,
may feel he has no right to do
what in plain language is called
wasting a girls time" I be-
lieve it might be we'll to try
and find out what it all means.
This you can do if you're skill
full in directing your converse
ton to the point of finding out
where he spends his Sundays.
You might tell him what you
did last Sunday and ask him
if he, too, had a good time.
You'll have to be as adroit as
an acrobat on a trapeze to do
this successfully, but it can be
done. Good luck to you.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm terribly bashful. Every
time a girl looks at me I go
red. I just can't crash the
gate" to the opposite sex.
AS time goes on I get worse.
