The Beauty
Box

Don't steel your mind against
a coiffure change, fair one.
Very bad habit that. A new
hairdress is no killing matter;
if it doesn't impart the elastic
thrill that has been expected,
the experimenter can go back to
first principles. Hair thrives
like house afire as every
woman knows, the trot-trotting
to the beauty shops for a hair
cut being a frequent and casual
pilgrimage. New cuts are fairly
short, sometimes a snug Shingle
close to the nape, the Shorn por-
ton curtained with flat ringletS,
or those soft puffs that are so
quaint, naive and suggestive of
romantic yore-timeS.
Timidly the beauty preacher
approaches the subject of exces-
sive perspiration. It's not a
pleasant theme, and perhaps it
isn't ,mannerly to infer that
some of the followers of pulchri-
tude are thus afflicted. Dress
filters declare that skin odors
are common i'll. There are de-
odorants that qualify, some Of
the strongest ones scar the skin,
close the pores completely, need
only be used three or four times
a year. Properly applied, they
do no harm. Salt rubS are
recommended, also bathing with
a solution Of baking soda.

Spring sportswear has many
demands made upon it, and it
must be good to come up to re-
quirements. Few women, in this
age of economy, are buying
clothes that they will wear for
sports and nothing else. Most
of us want something that will
look we'll on the street, If we hap
pen to want to make it do
double duty, and that will be
good for both active and spec
tator sports. That means that
the costume must be extremely
good looking, as well as COM
Portable and suitable for
activity.
Gay Color Contrast
Texture, color, and smart cut
are the ways that the new
clothes achieve distinction. The
new fabrics are marvellous.
Many of them initiate hand
knitting, others are loose, rough
woven tweedS that have an i'm
ported look. The cottonS take
an important place, and are in
many new weaveS. Combina-
ton of color is better than
monotone effects, and you can
let your imagination run riot
in using sharp accents of clear
color on neutral costumes, or
you can have the whole costume
in fairly bright colors.
For Spring Fairways
The fabric in the two suits
we've sketched is too lovely to
describe. It is an angora knit,
soft yet firm, with decidedly
imported look. The suits speak
for themselves, as far as looks
60, and they are unusually prac-
tical because of their cotton
blouSes, which may be laundered
easily and kept fresh. One suit
has a blouse of small-striped
seersucker, and a lining to the
jacket of the same material,
which may be taken out for
laundering, and which also keeps
the jacket firmly in place for
such active sports as golf. No
tice. the trim tied neckline of the
blouse. It comes in colored
stripes to harmonic with the
suit, which is in gray, green,
blue or black. The other suit,
with odd sleeves in the jacket,
unusual for a sports suit, comes
in the same fabric and the same
colors, but it has a matelasse
organdie blouse with jabot neck
line. It is quite an informal lit
tie blouse, with puffed sleeves
and dark buttons to match the
color of the suit. These suits
are priced only $15.75 complete.
For fashion information, or
for the name Of the store where
you can find these suits, write

There is a suitor in Guate-
mala urging an early marriage.
A fairly prosperous bache-
lor-an American-he has de-
cided to renounce bachelor
hood. It is Mabels photo
graph, shown him by her
cousin, that has turned the
trick. Mabel is %, with a
charming, piquant face, and
the part in her hair has an
irresistible occurrences. The
possible husband is more than
twice her age.
Romance? Drama? Well,
perhaps.
There's a string to all this.
The bridegroom, you see-if
that is what we are to call
him-won't move an inch. He's
settled in the tropics; he has
his business: he doesn't like
the journey.
The bride must be tagged
and labelled and sent to him.
Once there, she'll be married,
honored, loved. And there's
the cousin to vouch for it all.
, Mabel's family is tempted.
There are four daughters.
Young men won't save money;
they, are skittish at the men,

husbands are at a premium.
Mabel herself is not unwilling.
I am appealed to for my very
serious advice.
The convention that the
bridegroom must always come
to claim his bride is a sound
one. Almost never would I
counsel waving it. But in
this case I would proceed as
follows:
Completely investigate the
would-be husbands character
and history, even though he is
already Endorsed.
Delay the affair until Mabel
and her suitor have had a.
chance to correspond a little.
Let the final decision be

don't need to say that there
would be hazards in such a
marriage-as there are in most
marriages. A middle aged
bachelor may be expected to
have whims and immovable
habits. This particular bach
elor may be both eccentric and
domineering.
Mabel, on the other hand,
is probably ignorant, and may
have some girlish Stiffness.

interesting, remarkable, even
adorable to the other. Who

Secrets Of Health
By DR.. Louis A. Bisch
FamSus Authority Health and Psychology

Sonality is ever as charming as
when it is acting itself, without
pretense, sham or disguise Of
any kind. For every human
being has his attractive side,
and seldom do we fail to like
people because of these infe
riority ideas they take so mucA
pains to cover.
Furthermore, sensible persons
ought never permit themselves
to be enSlsved in any such
fashion or to torment them
selves with terrorS that are
purely imaginary.
The impulse to initiate those
we know or sees and who we
think are happy and successful,
has a lot to do with this. Yet
often people are actually some
thing quite different from what
they seem, because their own
defense mechaniSmS are Just as
hollow as the DISCUSSES we our
selves adopt.
The ego Of man and woman
likewise tends to make them
want to appear as perfect as
possible. Nevertheless, there is
no gainsaying the fact that
often we like or even love an
individual, not because Of his
strength or assets, but because
of his weaknesses and liabilities.
It is his faults which endear
him to us.
Try, therefore, to discover
your own disguises and to do
away with them as quickly as
possible. That old saying, BE
Yourself" is we'll worth remem-
bering here. Be yourself, and
you can always be sure Of the
worlds reactions; try to be
something else, and you never
can tell when your fraud may
be discovered.
DIR. Bisch's Daily Diet Hint
Gout undoubtedly is a dis
order Of nutrition in which uric
acid is retained in excess
amounts in the tissues. Meat
and broths should be eaten only
sparingly. Foods that can be
permitted are milk, cereals,
white bread, lemonade, fruits
and fruit jucies, tapioca or rice
pudding and baked custard. In
other words, protein foods must
be reduced to a minimum. Aka
line waters are beneficial.
