May Prove
Costly
BY LIZ HUME

Perhaps you are quibbling
over paying a certain price
which you consider too high for
that pure-bred puppy you would
like to give Junior" for Christ
mas. Well, we have wanted for
many weeks to go into the costs
of good dogs-and have at last
gotten around to it.
Persistent slashing Of prices
asked for pure-bred puppies has
occasioned an informal, nation.
wide survey by the American
Kennel Club of what it really
costs to bring a pedigreed puppy
of fairly good stock to the SELL
ing age.
Average Cost
The conclusion, after average.
ing hundreds of cost sheets, is
that the consumer cannot hope
to purchase a good puppy that
is eligible for registration
meaning that his ancestors are
known for many generations to
be of a definite breed-for less
than thirty-five dollars. This
amount gives the breeder a
small profit on his investment.
This figure may seem amaz-
Ing to the uninitiated, but it is
an amount that has been calcu-
lated on strictly business basis.
AS an average, of course, it
varies in different parts of the
country, due to changing costs
OF materials, foods, fuel, taxes,
licenses, medical attention,
breeding stock, stud fees, wages,
and a hundred and one other
items. But, if the equitable
price of a puppy varies a few
dollars downward. it is liable to
sky-rocket upward in some cases.
Initial Price
One breeder has figured that
to place well-bred puppy on the
market stands him $125. This
amount is rather high, but then
the breeder in question has
spent a great deal of money
building a plant that assures
him extremely healthy dogs, and
the puppies he sells are worth
every cent that he asks for
them.
Many who purchase puppies
do not realize that when they
pay a low initial price. the sub
sequent upkeep is likely to
mount in proportion.

and plain crepe or satin trou-
sers. Quilting is ultra smart
this year, and these types are
usually semi-tailored, so the
trousers are not full.
Decorative pajamas of velvet
or satin are lovely, and quite
popular. We saw one stunning
black velvet pair with silver
lame collar and cuffs. Others
are not at all tailored, but
combine a soft loveliness with
warmth. Velvets are not so
cruShable these days, by the
way.

sense of the word.
Trousers are usually rather
full in the Russian types.
AS to tea gowns. hostess
gowns and negligees, they are
legion, and each store seems
to have lovelier ones than the
last. Fine flannel makes some
of them, and they are not in
any sense of the word a "flan-
mel robe" but are really hostess
gowns, with chic and charm.
Others of satin or crepe are
lined with albatroSs to give
warmth without weight, and
without the warmth showing.
Velvet Popular
Velvets are found everywhere,
and in spite of the prevalence
of long lines, of satin sashes in
contrasting colors, and of
shirred sleeves, there is a
great deal of variety among
them. The colors are luscious,
and in so many tones, light
and dark, that there can be no
difficulty in finding a right
shade for every person.

Can you advise me?
Sincerely,
Dear Miss E. s.:
Why don't you follow good
advice when you get it? or
course you should refrain from
squeezing blackheadS and plm-
pies en- your face.
Although you may succeed in
squeezing out a few blackheads,
you also succeed in injuring the
skin tissues by bruiSing 1t. In
so doing you create a new trap
for dust and dirt.

Vial of Perfume
|sWeIC0n1e
Present
BY JULIET SHELBY

French women have intrin-
sic faith in the alluring powers
Of a well-chosen perfume. Every
intimate garment and possession
is nicely scented, with the re-
suit that a compelling fragrance
emanates from them.
They can enter a room with
the assurance that only we'll
groomed chic can create. And
they get their men and hold
'em!
For instance, a French woman
carries in her handbag a small
vial of the perfume that adorns
her dressing table. After a few
hours away from home, she
steps into "salle de femme"
retouches her careful grooming
and finishes with a dash here
and there of her favorite per.
fume-on her wrists, behind her
ears, on her handkerchief, on
each side of her mouth. Thus
she succeeds in always preserv.
ing the fragrant illusion she
embodies.
From Paris, in shiny metal con-
tainers, or soft suede-like sacks,
come handbag vials of perfume.
An enterprising perfumer has
sensed tne growing inclination
of American women to learn the
art of careful perfuming. and he
has exported all Of his lovely
fragrances in these small walls
so that we, too, may endeavor
to preserve an illusion! Each
vial has a crystal dropper, so
there is no excuse for tipping
the bottle on your dress or suit.
Follow the French fashion and
be subtle with your perfume!
These little walls are most in
expensive, so you can afford to
experiment with several blends
before deciding to invest in a
large quantity.
A single vial makes fragrant
remembrance at Christmas and
could easily be mailed in an en-
velope. There are two or three
very popular blends among the
fragrances from which you may
choose.

the future in these troublesome

And you won't get that, my
dear, by weeping over a date
breaker who must have his

Better take into consideration
something for which you have
some ability. Go to night school
if you're employed during the
day.
Make up your mind to amount
to something. The trouble with
half the women who apply for
vocational training or adult edu'
cation is that they have no foun-
dation on which to work.
At the same time you will ap-
peal to a better class of young

He Sees Her Home
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I belong to a bowling club, to
which both men and women
come. My husband, who does not
care for this kind of recreation,
stays home with the children
when I go.
A certain man in the club has
been taking me to my door, in
his car, after these meetings,
and I never felt it necessary to
tell it to my husband. Now, it
has occurred to me that he
might hear of it and get crazy
ideas into his head.
And if I tell him about it, he
might say that I should quit
bowling with that club, and / do
enjoy it so much.
Would you advise me to give
up this sport, which is my fav-
orite? r. M.
BY all means, tell your hus-
band. If he's reasonable, he'll
not objecs. Or he may agree to
take you there himself.
