Beauty Queries
and Answers
Winter Hands

Winter Hands
Question: Every winter both
Of my children suffer with
rough, cracked hands. They are
boys and I can't get them to use
creams on them. Is there any
thing you could suggest to avoid
this painful and unattractive
condition? G. w.
Answer: Many little boys Suf-
fer from cracked hands in the
winter. They are just a little
too busy to dry them carefully
and then the wintry wind does
the rest of the job. Perhaps if
you keep rough hand towels on
the radiator, so that there is
more of a chance of getting a
thorough hot drying Of hands
without a lot Of effort spent
and then get a manly" cream
or lotion-the boys won't mind
using this comfort to winter
paws.

am about 20 pounds over
weight. E. X. o.
Answer: Will you please con-
suit your doctor and ask him
to give you a diet. Health is
more important than rubies and
diamonds-even this year-and
dieting is dangerous unless it
is wise and scientific.
Dull Hair
Questi0n-Since I got my per-
manent my hair is drab and
dull. Will you please suggest
something harmless to the hair
that will help.-L. r.
Answer-Apply a little bril-.
liantine; this will give it a
sheen. We have the name of a
very good shampoo, if you'll
write again, inclosing a self-ad-
dressed, stamped envelope.

Sesting to you that there are al
most as many women in this
bright world who are on the
slender side of the scales as
there are those who tip it
nearer 200 pounds. / am five

in luxury. Get yourself good
book, a box of delicious choco-
lates and build a CHEEKY little
wood fire. Stretch out among
down cushions until you feel
drowsy and then sleep a few
hours. For breakfast have
plenty of nice hot cereal and
pour heaps of real cream on it.
After you have had few eggs
garnished with several strips of
crisp bacon, several piping hot
mullins dripping in butter and
coffee rich with cream - then
you can look forward to a nice
hot lunch of creamed chicken
and a baked potato. You can
have plenty of sugar in your
afternoon cup of tea and please
don't hesitate to choose the
umiest French pastry. Need we
go into the evening meal? In

anybody can put on pounds
