Distant and Practical
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear M1SS ta1T1AX:
I am 26 years old and have
been going with man 20 for
nearly two years. He seems to
care for me, yet never shows any
affection, and doesn't want me
to show him any. I am Of a
very loving disposition. but try
to hide my feelings.
He is not at all baShful, and
once said he thought more of me
than Of any other girl. Is it nat
ural for some men to be so dis.
tant and practical? I wonder
if that is why I care so much
for him? JANE.
Your letter, which space for"
bids me to publish fully, suggests
that this very reserved young
man regards you more as a
friend than a sweetheart. Often
an association which begins with
friendly companionShip develops
into love, but yours doesn't seem
to be taking this happy course.
The very ancient remedy Of
making him jealous by showing

the brown coloring. If they
are black, use the blue mascara
and pencil for evening, and
touch them up slightly in the
daytime with black.
Too much mascara at any
time, or too heavy brow line,
will make your eyes stiff and
artificial looking. You don't
want that. Concentrate on the
eye-shadow, and use the pencil
and mascara to accentuate
your natural coloring and brow
contour.
I find a little cream put on
the lashes and eyelids before
makeup does wonders in keep
ing the eyes lustrous and soft
looking.

your eyes without being seen.
Four experts recently gave
their opinions en- making up
eyes and they are, in brief:
Soft blue for the brunette in
daytime, carrying the shadow
out from the center of the lids;
at night a violet shadow close
to the lashes and fading up on
the eyeball.
For the blonde, soft green in
the broad daylight, if the
shadow is imperceptibly shaded
from the lashes clear to the
brows. At night she can wear
blue, but the shadow must be
placed to make her eyes appear
long and languorouS-not deep.
IasheS and brows may be
touched up with mascara and
a brow pencil, and these should
match in color.

The picture is so small and the
figures so indistinct that the art

Of the famous WalnlSley strain
and their history is very un-
usual. Their ancestors, with
the exception of their sire and
dam, have produced very few
black pups, yet in this instance
all four of these pups are jet
black. This clearly indicates a
throwback, yet there has been
no instance where an entire
litter in this strain has been
black-maybe one or two pups,
but no more.
Miss PEBBLES is very proud to
own six black Pekingese.

choose the width, weight and
size you find most comfortable.

Choosing the Ring

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I expect to be married in a
few weeks, and my fiance wants
me to go with him and select
the wedding ring. For some
reason, difficult to explain, I
find myself embarrassed in do
ing this.
Wouldn't it be perfectly proper
for him to bring me up several
rings to choose from? His people
came originally from Austria,
and there a man wears a we'd
ding ring the same as a girl.
Shall I give him Sthis ring, or
does he buy it himself?

DR.. WYNEKOOP
FOUND GUILTY
Aged Woman Given Lengthy
Sentence For Staying Her
Sons Wife.
BY FRED BAILEY
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

CHICAGO, March 7. = DR.. Alice
Lindsay Wynekoop, 63year-old ma
triarch of a prominent medical ia
mily, today faced spending the rest
of her life in prison for the slay-
ing by chloroform and revolver shot
of her daughter in-laW, Rheta.
A criminal court jury of younger
men, selected under the woman
physicians own direction, brought
in a guilty verdict last night after
less than two hours deliberation. Its
recommendation of a 25 year SEN
tence was the same as life impris-
onment for the aged and ailing Wo-
man, whose repeated collapses from
heart disease have interrupted her
trial.
There weer yet the usual motions
for new trial to be disposed of be-
fore Judge Harry B. Miller could
pronounce sentence. A hearing on
these motions was set for March "a.
DR.. Wynekoop received the ver-
dict with the same calm that has
marked her conduct throughout the
strange case from the time that po-
lice were called into the family
mansion last November 81, to view
the dead girls body and through
her appearance on the witness stand
to deny that she had killed her
daughter-in-laW on an operating
table to collect 10000 insurance and
free her son, Earle, of an estranged
wife.
Her son, Walker Wynekoop, was
indignant. He labelled the verdict
a miscarriage of justice. DR.. Cath
crime Wynekoop, daughter, also
was indignant. They wheeled their
mother into an anteroom and sought
to console her. Earle was not pre-
sent.
DR., Wynekoop needed little con-
soling, however.
I'm innocent" she said. Don't
worry children. It's all right
Charles Dougherty, aSSist a n
states attorney, who prosecuted the
case, was jubilant over the verdict
which observers saw as largely due
to his masterful summation OF q
circumstantial case.

CUBAN STRIKE
HITS HAVANA
Government Takes Steps To
Prevent Recurrence Of Dis
orders In Capital.
BY LAWRENCE S. HAAS
United Press Staff Correspondent

HAVANA, Cuba, March 7. U.P)-
A decree suspending constitutional
guarantees for 80 days, in view of
the disturbed strike conditions in
the island, was published today in
the official gazette.
HAVANA, March military au-
thoritieS hastily gathered tear and
nauseous gas bombs today and held
soldiers alert in anticipation of SER
ious riots, the result of strike that
was assuming major proportions.
No newspaper had appeared since
Sunday and the absence of authen-
tic news bred fantastic rumors and
general anxiety.
The cabinet passed a special de-
cree TO suppress Communistic or
similar agitation. Called a law for
defense of the republic, it forbade
subversive activities under heavy
penalties.
But aroused workers already had
defied specific government decree
forbidding strikes except those ap-
proved by the government.
Long striking tobacco workers
protested when the government
brought provincial laborers to the
capital to load cigars on steamships
for New York
Dock workers struck III sympathy
Railway workers called strike
which all but paralyzed traffic in
the eastern half of the island. News
paper, port, shoe, wholesale grocery
and printery workers and teamsters
joined.
Omnibus and textile workers
joined at midnight last night. Tele-
phone workers announced they
would strike unless the government
promptly forced employers to accept
their wage and other demands.
The strikes promised to provide a
test of strength of the new govern
ment of Carlos Mendieta, embracing
the older political parties which op-
posed Machado, "the dictator"

Nothing has been decided
yet" said Mead, "but we hope
to take action soon
First bids On the huge project

cause the money had not actu-

high.

REED ATTACKS
GOVERNMENTS
CONTROL PLAN

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, March T.
(U.P)-Proposed government control
of telephone and telegraph lines
was attacked today by former
Senator James A. Reed of Missouri
prominent Democratic leader. as
threat to free distribution of
news.
Reed pointed out that if such a
proposal became enacted into law
the American press might be SUBJ
ject to control similar to that held
over the radio. In reference to the
radio, Reed said:
THE radio is employed contin-
ually in disseminating arguments
in favor of government activities
1 do not know whether this propa-
ganda is paid for or not, but it any
one should want to present the other
side of the question, the bill would
speedily run into millions of dol
lars"
Reed pointed out that he did
not believe that any misuse of the
radio had occurred but said the
possibility was threatened.
A further attack on the proposal
was made on the grounds that
federal efforts to manage business
affairs result in inefficiency.
