STYLE CHATS

All right, here we go on strea amline swing to romance. It seems that romance will persist only so long as the gentleman Tn the case may clasp the lady of his fancy easily within his two strong arms. Most ladiesHhre inclined to forget questions of circumference once the gentleman In the case has been taken safely to the altar. But the Park Lane In New York. far sighted hostelry. felt danger turk ing ahead for romance. and has cleverly obtained the services or Constance Gaul, fgure-control ex- pert, to plan streamlinc menus for them. Constance Is n person who even puts an artichoke 10 use and says that 1000 calories n day may put steak in the stomach and yet make the figure sufficiently inter- esting for romance to rap at the gate. Of course, one wouldn't know what romance will think, when romance finds out that Miss Gaul's salad dressing is based on
 mineral oil and cvapornted milk.

Small white daisies with yellow centers and leaves are punched to- gether like three small cor sages on the collar and cuffs.

 They would have to land care fully. They had had other clothes packed and ready to take with them but a cluster of servants had made n barrier they could not pass. Now they'd have to make a careful landing, steal some clothes and burn their costumes. They would have to keep away from Havana, hide in the bushes until pfpht fhcn roh a1me clothes lines and, as Beau said satirically "start q new life."
 Pablito heard all this duly. He didn't care what they did nor much - what happened. He wondered whether he would ever care again, whether he would ever know again anything but this deep. numbling pain.

If you want to derive the maxi mum benefit from your creams and lotions, use a batter.
 At bedtime, smooth a generous amount of cleansing cream on face and neck Rub it Into the pores and remove with cleansing tissues. Then fasten n clean cot ton pad on the end of the batter. dip 1t in skin tonic and. begining at the base Of your throat pat eek and face firmly but not hard enough to injure the delicate tis- sues. Use brisk, upward strokes.
 Then you arc ready for tissue cream and muscle oil. Put few drops of musc,o oil at the corners of eyes. around the mouth and on any spot where wrinkles are begin ming to show. Cover all the face and neck with tissue cream and begin batting ogain. This time. the pntter should be covered with h clean piece of soft cloth which has been moistcneA with skin tonic. Don't stop until the cream Is melt cd and has almost disappeared, proving that the skin really has absorbed some of it. Wipe off the excess cream and oil before you get into bed.

But he's safe enough now," he reflected, "and 1t was the thing anybody woulda done.

 When anybody habitually or even occasionally or just socially overeats he usually makes his greatest strides in the consumption of carbohydrates -- sugars and starchcs. So the restriction of the amount of these dclectablc foods Is tho first essential in correcting whatever evil the ovcrcatinS may have caused.
 God might have called pr Hay into consultation when giving mankind wheat, the staff of life for sustcnance. Dr Hay would have warned the Creator that it would never do to mix starch and protein in the wheat kernel.
 There Is Il modlcum Of sense in the assertion that no stomach can Dc acid and alkaline at the same time. But why should anybody want 10 have stomach that could be that?
