Re ars Orphaned
Dog on a
Bottle
TIT EyTIAKE
LIZ HUME

We are introducing today a
very young puppy belonging to
young Lyman S. Schlosser, jr.,
who has raised the little fellow
successfully on a bottle. The
puppy's dam died shortly after
he was born, and Lyman came
to the rescue and saved the
young dogs life.
Now Boy" as he is called,
has graduated from the infant
class. He eats cereals and other
foods dear to the doggie heart.
Lyman loves his pet and his
treatment of the dog should be
an example to many other dog
owners in the city.
Correcting Dog
Many dogs, especially young
ones, are inclined to run away
when first allowed to accompany
their owners on walks. It often
happens. also. that adult ami
mails possess a tendency to run
riot, and refuse to come to
heel"
In many cases a rating, or an
occasional cut with a wh1p-a
stick should never be used on a
dog-win effect an improvement
on the offenders manners. But
sometimes the propensity is so
strongly rooted that drastic
measures have to be adopted.
The proper course to pursue
is to get a long, thin cord and
fix one end in a slip-knot
around the dogs neck, the
other being secured to the own
er's wrist. The slack line,
measuring several feet in
length, may be carried in a
coil in the owners hand, so
that when the dog rushes off
in defiance Of his words Of
control, it can run out until
the extent of the rope is
reached, when the offender is
pulled up with a sudden jerk.
He Soon Learns
If he is going at top speed
the slip-knot will sometimes be-
come tight as to almost choke
him, but the severity of the
jerk will depend on his own &C
tions, and in due course he is
sure to connect the discomfort
with disobedience to orders, and
a cure is natural result.
The chicken-killing dog can
frequently be cured by Scolding.
In other cases by whipping and
in very bad cases by tying about
his neck the chicken he has
killed and making him carry it

Advice to the
LoveIorn

Written Exclusively for Tho
Washington Times

How Much Is Enough?
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I have one of those new
Government jobs which pays
me $124 a month. Since COM
ing to Washington, have
fallen very much in love with
a young lady who lives in the
same boarding house as I
do. We sit next to each other
at the table, and it's very
pleasant to see such a pretty
girl at meals twice a day.
1 should like to ask her to
marry me, but I feel a little
uncertain as to how long this
job will hold out, and also,
if it would be safe these days
to marry on my present salary.
The young lady is employed
in a lawyers office, and gets
$40 a week. I think she's like
to hold on to her job, in case
we did marry. Please answer.
THAD.
If your appointment is un.
derstood to be temporary, it
would certainly be risky to
marry. AS to your salary, it
will depend entirely upon the
type of girl the young lady
happens to be. Does che
know how to keep house, and
cook, and make a dollar 60 a
long way, or is she of the type
that would open a can of some.
thing for dinner, and be bored
to death with household econ
omy?
If she kept her own Job, and
you kept yours, that should
enable you to put by little for
the much-discussed rainy day.
What kind of influence have
you here in Washington? Does
your Senator or Representative
have enough interest in you to
have you transferred to q
permanent position? That
would solve the question.

Underweight
Dear Miss Shelby:
I am 18 years old, 5 feet tall
and weigh 95 pounds. I would
like to know if my weight is
correct.
My hair is getting very dull
and lifeless.
I have quite a few blackheads
which trouble me greatly.
Will you please advise me Oh
what to do? Sincerely,
M. L.
Dear Miss M. L.:
You are at least ten pounds
underWeight. This may be one
reason for the dull lifeless con-
dition of your hair. Ill health.
nervousness, lack of vitality,
loss of rest and sleep, all have
their effect on the hair, and on
the skin.
Give special attention to your
diet and try to get lots of out
door exercise. Improper eat
ing, lack of exercise and, care
less grooming are behind most
bodily ailments and most beauty
problems; and most of them
can be controlled by correcting
the diet, getting an hour or SO
of outdoor exercise every day,
not forgetting that a daily bath
followed by a cold shower or
sponge and brisk friction with a
rough towel is most essential.

Dear Miss Caswell:
What is the purpose of wine
cradle, and what is one made
out Of? A. j. V.
Dear A. ]. ":
Most wine cradles are some
what bottle-shaped baske
made of wicker, with a handle
at one end. They are used
when serving a bottle Of old,
rare red wine, which has lain on
its side in a bin for years, to
prevent stirring up the sediment
by raising the bottle to a YER
tical position. The bottle should
be taken carefully from the bin
and placed in the cradle with
no extra lifting or turning.
When a cradle is used it is not
necessary to wrap the bottle in
a napkin.

Dear Betsy Casweu:
Please tell me how to braise
meat. MRS. THOMAS B.
Dear Mrs. Thomas B.:
Braising is a combination OF
stewing and baking. The meat
to be braised is usually fried
first just enough to prevent the
escape of the juice. It is then
placed in a pan with a small
quantity of stock or water, car
rots, turnips, celery and onions
cut into pieces, and a few herbs
for seasoning. The. pan should
have a close-fitting cover, and
the meat should be cooked in a
slow oven for long time. This
is an excellent method for max
ing a tough piece of meat ten
der without cooking it to death.

Cotton is a basic American
product. True, cotton is raised
in other parts of the world, ard
manufactured elsewhere. But our
cotton from the time it is
planted until it is worn or used,
gives employment to thousands,
no millions, of Americans. Whole
sections of the country live and
thrive on it.
Back To Favor
Cotton has come back TO
fashion prominence, in a way
that is perfectly amazing during
the past two or three years. You
can easily remember when we
felt rather apologize about
wearing cottons at any time.
Now we flaunt smart cotton
dress in the evening, or enjoy
lounging in cotton through a
day e. leisure at home or on the
beach.
It is entirely through merit
that cottons have staged such a
comeback. The silk manu-
facturers rather sat still and let
the cotton designers get the
better of them.
New textures, new weaves.
new designs, each more faSci-
mating than the last have been
succeeding each other with great
rapidity for several seasons past.
And the public, ever awake when
something good is happening,
has responded nobly.
Acclaimed in Paris
This vogue for cottons is not
restricted to our own country,
either. Paris, Vienna, London,
all realize the Smartness and
value of cotton fabrics. Our own
manufacturers have sent repre-
sentatives abroad for the pur-
pose of interesting the big de-
Signers and dreSSmakerS. and
they have succeeded.
The recent Paris midseason
openings witnessed cottons in a
prominent place in every show
ing. It would take too much
time to enumerate the houses
and how they used it, but do
believe me when I say that
it ranked with silk or any other
fabric in chic and favor. Cot
tons have arrived at last, and
may they be here to stay!

to look during the dog-days Of
1934-and the advance news
sounds pretty grand!
For one thing, we're all 60
ing to get a chance to be lust
ourselves. Animated natural
ness" according to this au-
thority, "is the keynote Of 1884
fashions in faces, to compile
ment the animation which
characterizes this years fash
ions in frocks."
The trend in makeup is
away from the Sun-tan which
has been growing deeper and
deeper on our cheeks for the
last two years. We are TO
look natural. We are to ap-
pear animated. Compilations
may be tinged with warmth.
After all, it stands to reason
that you can't wear dark powder
and too exotic makeup with the
Victorian and Edwardian colt
fures of feminine curls which
are so smart at the moment.
They belong with a light, trans
parent-looking skin. And the
equally popular wind-Swept hair
styles are simply all wrong when
framing any but a natural-look-
ing face with a clear, healthy
complexion.
The new powder, which comes
in a box of luscious green and
gold design on ivory with a con-
venient carved ivory compost
ton knob upon the cover. is a
soft glowing tone with a delicate
apricot cast. One of it's benefits
is that blonde or brunette can
wear it equally well. Shades Of
lipstick and rouge (there's also
marvellous new extra light"
shade of paste rouge with a SUM-
lit quality, more on the red
yellow than the red-blue cast for
dark brunettes), vary in the
charted rules for summer make
up. But the same shade Of
powder is recommended for all
three basic skin types-dark
brunette, blonde and light brun-
cite.
Another advantage about the
new powder is that the box con.
tains an unusually big pink
lambs wool powder puff. The
size of that puff makes it flex-
ible and easy to apply powder
the way it should be put on,
which is by first patting it
thickly over the entire face,
after applying the powder
foundation, and then removing
the surplus powder.
Be sure you pat the powder
well into those tiny fine lines
around the corners of the eyes,
and around the mouth. You
can smooth off the extra resi-.
due of powder with the same
puff, but the best way is to
brush it off with one of the
soft camel's hair brushes made
especially for that purpose. The
powder that adheres will stay
twice as long as it does when
put on in the ordinary way.
Don't always put the first
dab of powder on the end of
your nose, unless it's your best
feature and you want to call
attention to it. Try starting
ON the chin or cheek, and work
around to the nose. One of
the leading Hollywood makeup
experts gave us that hint. He
said that the first dab of pow
der is usually the heaviest, and
creates a sort of highlight that
remains.

Household Hints
Sandwich Spread

Sandwich Spread
A few spoonfuls of leftover
meat, chicken, hash, cheese or
boiled eggs, or a mixture of left
overs make delicious sandwiches.
Mix with white sauce, season
highly, spread between thin
slices of bread and cut in
fingers" dip in egg and saute
in hot fat, or bake in a quick
oven (400 degrees F.) for about
Is minutes.
Bread FlavOring
Shortening adds a desirable
flavor to bread. It also makes
the dough tender and helps to
keep the loaf moist. An excess
of shortening, however, tends to
retard the rising.
