Advice to LoveIorn
By Beatrice Fairfax

times I dance with other boys
and this makes him furiously
jealous. His sister sides with
him and says I have no right
to dance with others. I have
promised to wait for him.
Please answer this, as I have
no mother to advise me. She
died when I was a baby. Do
you think the difference in our
ages matters. BLANCHE.
Really, my dear, I can't
sympathize with the boy friend
in his jealousy. He is II, and
under the most favorable cir
cumstances, he will have to
wait some time before he claims
you as his wife. It is the great.
est mistake for a man to marry
too young. And he should not
be so "possessive" when pros
poets are so far in the future.
He should try to be a good
sport, curb his jealousy and
school himself to seeing you
dance with other boys, even
when he plays the dance music.
The difference in your ages
doesn't really amount to any
thing.

them, or will you resort to the
stimulating effects of warm
bath followed by a cold
shower? This is the choice of
the normal woman.
The energetic type will most
likely respond more quickly to
the bath, while the listless
type should relax for a while
at least, and if the warm bath
in her case is too exhausting,
she can bring her blood into
circulation by a few light ex-
ercises.
Young girls with normal skin
and in good health should thor
oughly cleanse both the face
and neck with a mild soap or
cleansing cream. After the
cleansing they should pat into
the skin their favorite nourish-
ing cream and allow it to re-
main there during the rest or
bath period.
Just before donning the frock
that is intended to dazzle your
beau, remove the cream with
a pad of absorbent cotton sat-
urated with ice cold astringent,
before adding the powder base
and desired makeup.
If you rest, saturate a piece
of absorbent cotton with a
good lotion and place it over
your eyes while reclining.
If the bath is used as a
quick means of recuperation,
drop the lotion into the eyes
with an eye dropper or use an
eyecup to bathe them. You
will be amazed to find how
refreshing this is.
Older Women
For the woman who is no
longer young, whose muscles
are relaxed or whose skin is
weather-beaten in appearance,
there are swiftly acting stimu-
lating preparations that in a
few minutes will cause her skin
to be in a rosy glow, banishing
that gray, Sa1lOW, 1Ae4eoS Julie.
An anti-Wrinkle cream should
be applied over a thin film of
nourishing cream and left on
for a few minutes. When the
skin begins to tingle, remove
the cream and ointment with
the edge of silver spoon, and
then cover the skin with another
application of nourishing cream.
Leave that on as long as posi-
BILE and remove with a pad Of
absorbent cotton saturated with
o soothing skin tonic.
You will be amazed at the
clear transparent appearance Of
your skin, which you thought
never to see there again.
Now, you are, all ready for
the evening you dreaded, feeling
refreshed and rested.

Ready-Made Price
For CoatS---tO
Your Order

With some of us. there's al
ways the problem of getting a
coat that fits perfectly, and is
the style and fabric we want.
It may be a. matter Of length,
either at the henline or sleeves.
It may be a matter of width
somewhere, of shoulders that
are shaped a little out of the
ordinary. or any of the simple
problems of fit.
Coats are made for us, to be
sure, but we can't always get
a selection, and must buy what
we can find, rather than what
we want. We can have a coat
made to measure. but that's so
expensive, usually.
Choose Your Furs
But this year one of the local
stores comes to our rescue.
with an excellent idea. It's
coats made to order at the low
price you'd pay If you walked
right in and bought a coat.
You go down, select your
style, have your measure taken,
select the fur you want on the
coat, select the fabric, then
the coat is made up.
The material available Is a
soft crepey woolen. and comes
in all good colors, such as black,
brown, green, and wine.
The store has the furs in
stock already. so that you won't
have to bother about the rise
in price of furs. and the coats
won't suddenly jump in price a
few dollars.

BEECKMAN
Wedding Invitation
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Dear Mrs. beecKman:
/. I have been engaged to a
girl for over a year and every
thing has gone fine until now.
There is a young couple,
friends of ours, who are to be
married very soon. They have
asked my girl friend and her
sister to be bridesmaids. The
sister of the bridegroom is also
a bridesmaid and her boy friend
is to be an usher. Do you
think my girl friend should
have accepted, knowing that I
would be an usher? I don't
think she should have.
2. Should I go to the we'd
ding under these circumstances
and not knowing anyone else
there?
3. Should they send an invi-
tation addressed to me?
UNCERTAIN.
!. 7 imagine that you meant
to insert a mot" in your
sentence, making it read, do
you think that my girl friend
should have accepted, knowing
that I would not be an usher?"
Is that right?
The answer is that your girl
friend should have accepted
this invitation, whether or not
you were invited to be an
usher. This is taken for grant,
ed. 1t is not necessary for
you both to be asked to be
members of the wedding party.
These invitations depend en-
tirely on the wish of the
bride and groom, and we
should abide by their wishes
and convenience.
2. OF course, go to the we'd
ding. It would be very un-
gracious of you not to go be.

NGNH VAAC NAAAAASANB AAAAASS%
suddenly laid him low. He had
fever and suffered pain. For
months he was bedridden.
But then the change came!
While lying in bed he began
to think; to ponder and to
probe his inner self. He now
could see clearly his mistakes
of the past. He realized as
never before that he had been
bending his efforts in the
wrong direction, and why.
So gradually, in the place
of the disappointments of the
past, there came to him a
recognition of his own ability;
at least a conscious conviction
that he possessed inherent tai
ent for writing; and what is
more, that henceforth he would
devote his life to the drama.
That man is Eugene O'Neill,
generally recognized as the
greatest playwrig h t in the
United States today.
This case which l cite is by
no means exceptional. In fact,
many of the worlds unusual
men and women can trace back
to an illness a new point Of
view or fresh start that ulti-
mately was crowned with sue
cess.
Lafcadio Hearn, foremost in
terpretive writer on Japanese
character, sserted that q
healthy person could never dis
cover the spiritual values of life
as could a sick one. Of Schu-
mann it is said that while prac-
ticing finger exercises on the
piano he paralyzed his right
hand. 1t was because Of this
handicap, however, that he
turned to composing music.
A sickness, you see, especially
If it be a severe one or chronic,
often brings us face to face with
the realities of life for the first
time. Accustomed as most Of
us are to skipping along hap
hazardly from day to day, with
out definitely fixing our goal,
without knowing, or even bother
ing to know, what we are capa-
BILE of and can accomplish, i'll.
ness often arrives as a blessing
in disguise.
Illness, for the time being, at
least. removes us from our
everyday cares, worries and du-
ties and sets lis mentally free.
It forces us into a state of leis-
ure that makes us think Sc
riously. We no longer bother
about the petty behavior of
others or the conventions that
have hemmed us in. While
sick we only are interested
in ourselves. And while con-
sidering ourselves our thoughts
inevitably are concerned only
with what is basic and vital.
Consider, therefore, what it
would be like if you were sud-
denly to fall desperately i'll.
What would pass through
your mind? Would you have
any regrets over the past?
Would you decide to turn over
a new leaf? Would you adopt
new philosophy of life? Would
you decide to change your atti-
tude toward those you love or
toward your work? Would you
perhaps feel you ought to find
a new job after you recover?
The disadvantages Of illness
are obvious-the pain and dis
tress, the reduction of finan-
cial income, the possible loss of
ones position, the burden on
those who must needs take care
of us.
Why not, my good reader
make the assumption anyway?
Pretend you are i'll in bed. If
you agree with me that some
times, at least, it is advantage
Gus to be sick, why wait until
you actually are in order to
profit thereby?
Why not figure out whether,
in your particular case, ar ILL
ness would rebound to your
benefit?

Write Notes of Thanks by
Hand Always
Dear Miss Fairfax:
am a bride of three weeks,
and I have not thanked for
all the wedding presents we
received yet. It is so tiresome
writing notes. Wouldn't it be
proper if I had some cards
engraved, such as I have seen
in a stationer's case, which
read: "Mr. and Mrs. John
Smith thank you for your
lovely wedding gift" Or would
it be proper for me to dictate
these notes to my husbands
secretary, and have her write
them on the typewriter? I hate
writing letters.
YOUNG BRIDE.
No. my dear, I'm afraid
you'll have to write every one
of those notes of thanks by
hand on your very best sta
tionery. An engraved card of
thanks is proper. only when
sent by a public official, to
acknowledge the overwhelming
number of congratulatory mes
sages he has received from
strangers. In writing your note

thanking the sender, and for

stiff raise first one and then
the other as high above the
