III never poked my nose out
of-doors, I could tell just Wnen
a season begins to change. All l
have to do is to open my morn
ing mail. Today I know summer
is on the wane, for women are
writing letters inquiring aOou'
skin bleacheS!
Tomorrow may be as hot as
Hades, and four or i've weeks
of torrid weather may still pc IN
the offing, but that WoulonC
make the slightest difference
to q woman who has suddenly
decided that her skin needs
bleaching! It may be 1recKles,
it may be her hard-acqulreo
tan, last weekend's unbecomlng
sunburn, or just naturally dark
pigment. Whatever the cause
her skin must be lightened or
she will not be happy! But, no,
hum! It's her feminine whimS
that make my job interesting.
When the skin is to be bleach
ed, it is wise to start with tne
mildest Of bleaching lotions: II
YOU are not satisfied with them
after q time, adopt a more dras.
tic treatment. You will 1ind
that a tender, sensitive skin
only slightly discolored, IS harder
to bleach than q skin OF harder
texture. So a certain amount
Of experimenting must be done.
In suggesting a bleach I have
to use some discretion. I must
select a bleach that will not
irritate even the most sensitive
skin and yet will be effective
T for an oily skin. So I have
chosen q mild bleach cream OF
a highly recommended line OF
cosmetics that banishes summer
tan and other minor skin dis
colorations.
You must not use this cream
more frequently than twice a
week on the face, but you may
use 1t nightly on your arms and
throat. While it bleaches, it re-
fines the texture of the skin.
If you use some sense in pro-
tecting your skin with a lotion
or cream before you go out to
play, and persist in using this
mild bleach as directed, you will
probably have recaptured that
lily-white skin-tone by the time
autumn leaves begin to fall.

Shepherd Dogs
Need Quiet
Puppyhood
BY LIZ HUME

One Of the best pictures we
have received in ages is this
little snapshot Of Dewey Hud-
low, 1852 L st. S. S., and his
dog, Bessie.
Bessie is a German shepherd,
popularity known as a police"
dog, and is year old.
OF the dog Dewey's mother,
Mrs. Charles Hud1ow, writes:
"She can play many games,
catch the ball, hide and SEEK
and soldier boy"
The German shepherd is a
breed with which we are very
familiar, having at one time
bred them.
They have one popularity,
however, and owners Of Ger
man shepherds and prospective
owners should keep it firmly
in mind. The breed, probably
more than any other, can be
entirely ruined in its puppy
hood.
Cruel or even unsympathetic
treatment will crush their spirits
entirely. The result is all too
frequently a cross dog in ma
turity. This, we believe, is the
reason for the reputation held
by the German shepherd for
being surly.
Properly, treated in puppy
hood they are as friendly and
trustworthy as any other breed.
And, we repeat, so intelligent
that they are almost uncanny.
The German shepherd is not
especially suited to city life.
The breed needs a wide range
and if you must have one and
live in the city, be sure to give
it all the exercise possible.
We used to take our own
dogs out with us when we went
for our morning gallop. A stiff
run after the horse for 10 or IS
miles kept them in beautiful
condition and improved their
disposition marvelouSly.
For a child we strongly ad-
wise a. female. They are
gentler, less pugnacious and
more intelligent. A female who
has had a litter of pups is even
better. Their maternal affec-
tions are transferred to their
human charges.

your pet, Liz Hume invites you
to send it in for use in this col
umn. No pictures returned.

Advice to the
Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Noted Authority on Problems
Of Love and Marriage)

(NOte0 Authority On xEODACnAS
Of Love and Marriage)
Calls Herself . Cave-Lady
Dear Miss Fairfax:
To make a long story short,
my husband and I were very
happy together, after nine
years Of married life. Then q
girl in his office got around
him, embroidered him hand
kerchiefs, made him candy, and
turned his head with her flat
terry. He took her out in our
car, nearly every night, leaving
me home in q hot apartment
to roast.
Finally, I got tired Of this, so
I went to her house and told
her what I thought Of her. She
was very snooty to me, and
said some unforgiveable things,
so I took her across my knee
and gave her just what she
deserved-and with interest.
She locked me in and phoned
for my husband. She looked
a fright when he came, be-
cause she'd lost much Of her
makeup in the scrimmage.
Next day I began to pack
my things to 60 away, but he
begged me to stay. Said he
was likely to lose his Govern
ment job If I went, and the
whole office sympathized with
me and disliked the girl. I'm
ashamed to say I still like this
man. CAVE-LADY.
This is the first time I've ever
been asked to referee such a
case as you describe, and I feel
myself at a disadvantage. But
since you say you still love your
husband, you will probably un-
pack and stay, without any ad-
vice from me or anyone else.
Watch your step. Your method
Of settling young vamps is likely
to land you in jail. Please don't
try that again.

It's touch is on my life, -.
More light than breeze-tosSed

Yet keener than q knife.
I never see 1t coming,

To say when it will start
And all I know of joy is
Its singing in my heart!

Massage Cures Dandruff

NOSS~SO O0ACO OsSAUA uAA
Dear Miss Shelby:
Is dandruff any indication Of
an oily scalp? I find it neces-
sary to shampoo my hair once a
week to keep it clean and fluffy.
Is that too often?
My hair is so thick that the
bristles of the hairbrush do not
penetrate well. What should
I do? j. M. B.
Dear j. M. B.:
" Dandruff is the result Of ex-
cessive activity of the oil
glands and should be treated
by massaging the scalp, brush
ing and pulling the hair to
improve the circulation. You
should never use hot water on
your hair and, after shampoo
ing it with warm water, rinse
it well with cold water.
If you have a severe case of
dandruff, use tincture of green
soap for your shampoo instead
of CASTLE soap. Shampoo only
every two weeks.
If your hair is as thick as
you say, you should get it
thinned by an operator who un-
derstandS how to thin hair
properly.

Dear Miss Shelby:
I have been using cucumber
Juice in an effort to get rid OF
freckles. So far I have been
unsuccessful.
Can you help me with this
problem. Sincerely, JANE.
Dear Jane:
Cucumber Juice IS for an oily
skin and not for freckleS. OF
course it didn't help you!
Mild bleaches are best. Daily
use Of a mixture of lemon juice
and glycerine will result in a
gradual whitening. Another
simple bleach consists Of spong-
ing the face with a solution
of hydrogen peroxide after
washing the face with soap
and warm water.

Increase i'm Catch
Laid to Radio by
French Fishermen

To the stories about the COWS
that produced more milk and
the chickens that laid more eggs
because Of the soothing influence
of musical strains emanating
from radio loud speakers in the
barn and barnyard, comes now
another version that may re-
ouire an additional chapter in
Isaak walton's "Compleat Angler"
According to Radio-corriere, a
French publication, some fisher
men at MarSeilles observed that
their catch was greatly increased
on a day when the radio was
blaring forth on their boat. Then
a German scientist, who heard Of
the occurrence, conducted q
series Of experiments which
proved that fish are definitely
attracted by radio sounds.
whereupon World Radio Of
London comments: This, OF
course, casts an entirely new
light on the whole question Of
fishing. and anglers. instead Of
worrying about bait, will now
have to give their attention to
discovering the most suitable pro-
grams for different kind of fish.
1t may well be found, for ex-
ample, that trout are enthralled
BY radio drama and bored by
talks, while salmon may have an
ungovernable passion for dance
music"

IRON being until recently a mere

sations and the mass broadcasting
of entertainment via the short waves
have come to be highly important
modes of world communication. Ra-
diophone service, as this is called to
distinguish it from autobiography,
is now furnished in one form or an
other from no less than 2,400 stations
throughout the world, according to a
newly compiled world log of short
wave radiophone transmitters issued
by the Department of Commerce.
This means that beyond the 1900
kilocycle limit of the present broad

there are that many telegraph

quency range covered by the stations
in the log is from 1,500 to $4,000 kilo-

The significance of the new log lies
in its comprehensive character. It is
undoubtedly the most complete log of

from the records of the Bureau of
the International Accommodation
