Hopeless Love

Dear Miss Fairfax:
have been going with a man
for three years. He is SO years
old. Recently my mother OBJ
jects to my seeing him, saying
that I am wasting my time, al
though I go out occasionally
with other young men.
Now this man has told me,
time and again, that he cannot
afford to marry, and that 1
should go out with other more
eligible men, but he sees no rea-
son why I cannot go out with
him when I am not dated" for
any particular evening.
I love this man devotedly but
I feel our love is hopeless; that
I shall never be able to marry
him. Do you think my mother
is right in wanting me to break
with him? I am 81 years OF
age. G. P.
You haven't told me enough.
Why is a man in the prime Of
life so undesirable that your
mother wants you to make
clean break with him? He is
willing to accept evenings when
you're undated" with other
men. That sounds as if he
lacks the force all creatures
must have to be even moderate
ly successful.
Does he drink to excess? If
so, that's a real handicap. Or
does he pursue Skirts" which
is worse?
If he's unemployed, what eff
fort has he made to get work?
State relief agencies, in cities
as we'll as rural communities,
have authorized unemployed
teachers Cat an adequate sal
ary) to help adults whose lack
of schooling prevents them from
getting jobs. Has your friend
taken advantage of this oppor-
tunity? Write me again and
this time enclose self-addreS-
Sed, stamped envelope. Tell me
more and perhaps I can put
you in touch with one Of these
agencies.

once a week. If you weigh it
yourself at home the weight
should be reported to the doc
tor. It is his check on baby's
gain or loss.
If the baby's progress is salts
factory after he is six months
old the weighing rite may be
held every two weeks. Steady
gain in weight throughout the
first year is one of the best in
dications of health.
The baby's weight can be
checked with standards that
represent the average-height-
age of a large number Of babies.
Such a standard is given in
tbs accompanying tables for
white boys and girls. Negro
babies are as a rule slightly
shorter and slightly lighter in
weight than white babies.
These tables are not appli-
cable to premature babies since
in their early months such in
fants do not fall in the group
of normal babies. Nor are they
absolute inelastic. Some babies
are naturally bigger and
stronger than others.

Child Health
Questions
Tells Tales


Q.-My little girl, age six, Is
untruthful. She loves to tell
tall tales of seeing elephans and
tigers in the yard or on the
streets. can't seem to be able
to cure her. What would you
suggest? J. X.
A.-Your child sounds more
imaginative than untruthful,
After all there is little harm in
pretending elephants and tigers.
Day dreams such as these can
be considered perfectly normal.
1t is only when such ''pretends"
satisfy to an abnormal degree
the emotional demands Of the
child that they become serious.
You must guard the child
against the habit Of permitting
her dreams to become a substi-
tute for reality.
In dealing with the situation
it is not necessary to force the
child to admit the lack Of
reality in her stories. Better
simply impress upon her that
you, as an adult, accept them
for what they are-interesting
bits of romancing. Punishment
would not only be uncalled for
but might tend toward making
the child secretive. And once
she loses her confidence in you
a more vicious type of story
telling might develop.
The Washington times., 1933-11-21

Subject for Expert
Since the days before prohibit
ton, the cooking and serving of
meals has been simplified a
good deal. That will make the
serving of wines simpler, too.
And if you don't take it too
seriously you can have many
fine dinners or luncheons,
serving just one wine.
But if you're going in for
very elaborate effects, you'd bet
ter turn the whole matter over
to an excellent caterer, one who
knows wines as well as foods.
Clear Crystal Best
Although we can't attempt to
recommend wines, or 60 into
their icing or what foods they
should go with. We can say a
few words on the subject of the
glasses they are to go in.
Clear crystal is preferred for a
formal dinner, not only because
it is so lovely, but because it
shows the color of the wine,
which is as precious to an cpl
cure as the bouquet.
Sizes Of Glasses
The shape you choose is pretty
much a matter of your own
preference, provided the glass is
big enough, and has a wide
enough mouth at the top.
Generally speaking. glasses are
about the following sizes: Claret,
4 ounces; sherry, 2 ounces;
champagne, 512 ounces; liqueur,
/ ounce.
Sizes vary somewhat, but it is
generally agreed that the glass
should not be filled all the way,
so the bouquet can collect and
remain within the glass.
Three Glasses Enough
If possible, your wineglasses
should be related in some way
to your china, in pattern or
general feeling.
1t is correct to put only three
glasses on the table, according
to most authorities, but if you
have your liquor served at the
table. YOU may have the liquor
glass on the table, too.
Some people line the glasses
up in a straight row, others at
an angle, while others "Stagger"
them, or have them more or
less grouped.
Setting in Harmony
We're showing photographs
of some attractive glasses, with
the rest of the service suitable.
For luncheon, or a family
dinner, amethyst and crystal
glasses, just three of them, are
used with Wedgwood china in
a lovely design.
The silver is in Rhythm pat
tern, rather modern. Such a
combination makes a very color

adage that an ounce of pre-
vention is worth pound Of
cure"
Preventing illness in babies is
much easier than curing it.
Many diseases of babyhood,
once thought inevitable. have
almost disappeared because
modern science had learned to
prevent them. The old idea
that a child had to go through
a certain number of ills has
been discarded. The more Of
them he is able to avoid the
better off he will be.
Regularity should be the first
principle of the nursery. The
daily round of bathing, dressing,
feeding. sleep, outdoor life, play,
exercise, and elimination should
go off like clock work.
See the Doctor
The regular visit to the
doctor or clinic should never be
neglected. Even if baby is well,
he should see a physician at
regular intervals. The doctor
sees him with a trained eye.
He will be able to catch and
frequently nip anv trouble be-
fore it is really started.

ly stated sum, for which they
take entire charge of the infant
or child's health. The practice
IS growing in popularity and,
even if your own particular
doctor hasn't thought of it he
probably would be very glad to
discuss it with you.
If you feel you cannot afford

to a clinic. There are several

Beauty By
Set Up
BY LISA DUMONT

Too much can never be said
about the Importance Of regu-
lar exercise. Today we are Of.
fering a group Of exercises, and
the readers of this column may
take their pick.
Even if you feel, perhaps,
that you are in great form, and
really don't need any exercise
at all, you will keep yourself
physically fit by indulging in
any one of the following or all
of them if you are particularly
energetic.
Shapes the Hips
/. Lie perfectly flat on your
back, limbs stretched out, arms
extended straight over your
head with the palms up, slowly
rising to a sitting position,
bringing the hands straight
over in a half-circle to the
hips, and repeat this exercise,
beginning with five times the
first day, until at the end of
10 days you are able to do it
at least is times without feel
ing fatigued.
This is called a setting up
exercise which originated in
the army. If you find it hard
to pull your body up to the
sitting position, put your toes
under the edge of some low
piece Of furniture, such as a
davenport. If you do this
you will find it easy to raise
your body; you can have your
arms high above your head and,
as you raise up, touch your toes
with the tips Of your fingers.
This exercise will not only
strengthen the muscles of the
abdomen, but it strengthens
the spine and it works off the
rolls Of fat from the hips.
Reduces Bust
2. Holding the arms straight
out from the shoulders, bring
them as far back as possible
and then clap your hands in
front, holding them straight out
and repeating at least 10 times.
This will reduce the buStline
and the pads of fat that are
likely to accumulate across
your shoulder blades.~
3. The third exercise should
interest a great many women.
It is designed to improve the
appearance of the neck.
Stand erect, heels together,
arms hanging loosely at the
sides: throw your head back
until you are looking directly
at the ceiling. On the count
of one, look directly at the
ceiling; one the count of two,
look directly at the floor in
front of you; on the count of
three, directly at the ceiling;
on the count of four, directly
at the floor, and on the count
of five, sack to the ceiling.
For the Neck
Repeat this 10 times, keep
ing the muscles of your throat
tense and throwing your head
back far enough so that you
can feel the muscles in front
of your neck pulling and

pad OF fat that is likely to

Now, bring your head back
to its normal position, turn it
as far as you can to the right,
and count five; as far as you
can to the left, and count
five; and then, looking at the
ceiling and counting five. Do
this at least 20 times.
Then, bringing your head

Along the hills the steps Of
night are swift;
The whip poor-will sends out
his lonely call
While twilight glories on the

Then, sudden silence where
dark draperies fall.
In thought I visit cities in the

When streets like flowers blaze
out in gold and red,
Obliterating moonbeams' foot

And pallid stars that glimmer
overhead.
The city nights are marred
with voices shrill,
A thousand raucous noises blair

But here, on this remote and

The silence rises, lusty as a

Training Hair

Training Hair
Question: 1 have had a per-
manent wave and now only the
ends have any wave left. Is
there any way Of training hair
so that one does not have to
have q permanent so often?
Answer: Depending upon the
texture of your hair and whether
or not it is inclined to curl nat
urally lies the secret Of train
ing it without permanents. I
believe that there are two or
three highly recommended ways
of training the hair with set
ting fluids, but your hair may
not "take" the habit Of curling
without the aid of the perma-
nent machine.

QuestiOn-Many of the chill
dren are now wearing hair rib
bOns. My daughter is a 1888
model, and she demands that
instead of one large bow on the
TOP of her head, she have two
bows, one above each ear. Is
this stylish for children?
C. j.
Answer-Hair ribbons are very
popular now and for older girls
as well as children. Your 1888
model is typical of the modern
child who knows what she
wants. More power to her. II
face is round and of the pi-
quaint type a half-inch band Of
ribbon with a bow above each
ear should make her attractive

There are plenty of one-piece
dresses with casual, three-quar-

where, anytime. Many Of these
line the coat with the same
plaid that trims the dress, or
vice versa.
And there's a new twist to
the usual jacket dress theme
suede "weskit" that buttons
mani a shion in front and
buckles in back. And another
frock whose front and back
contradict each other is the
= Shirtwaist frock, whose front
buttons up demurely to a high
neckijne and whose back de-
sends in one fell Swoop down
to the waist.
This idea of using an evening
harness" neckline for a sports
frock is shown in several YER
sions and as in evening fash
ions, it is accompanied by a
