It is with a great deal OF /.
pleasure that we offer this arti-
Gle today. It was written by
one of the country's foremost
authorities on the subject:
Annual Exhibition
Tomorrow night. Friday the
twentieth, the annual Guppy
Exhibition and Contest Of the
National Aquarium Society will
be held in the aquarium in the
Department Of Commerce Build
ing. The public is invited, not
only to attend but to take part
in the contest, and anyone who
thinks he has a prize pair Of
guppies is welcome to enter
them.
Here is an opportunity for
everyone who is interested in
these little tropical friends to
see some splendid specimens and
to learn what can be accom-
pliShed by careful breeding.
The proper name for these
tiny pets is lebistes reticulatus,
but the name guppy is COM
monty applied and they prob
ably will be so called as long
as they are popular. They are
among the hardest Of the trop-
ical fish, the easiest to keep
and feed, and are among the
most prolific aquarium breed
ers. They are a never-ending
source of interest and enter
tainment.
1t has been estimated that in
one year, barring accident and
disease one pair of suppies and
their progeny will number 1900.
Two or three pair can be kept in
as little as two gallons of water,
and will thrive on standard pre-
pared foods, white worms, daph-
mia or finely scraped beef.
Brilliant C0lOrS

inch and a quarter for adult
males to two inches for females.

So we're showing some dining
room furniture, which as you
can easily see from the photo
graph, would fit nicely into your
own home, however simple it
might be.
AS a background for French
furniture, you should have either
a simple or a formal room. II 1t
is paneled, it will look formal.
If it is perfectly plain, have the
woodwork painted cream, warm
gray, buff or grey-green.
If you want wallpaper, be sure
you have a good copy of old
French paper in rather formal
design, for otherwise it will not
look right. It's better to have
plain walls than the wrong paper.
Your color scheme should be
rather delicate and rich. Mate
rails for upholstering used dur
ing the time of Louis XIV and
XVI were satin, grosgrain, moire,
damask, velvet and tapestry.
Your room will look better if you
use such material and taffeta or
satin for draperies.
Rugs Of delicate Persian de-
sign or an all-over carpet would
be suitable, and if you use rugs,
a light hardwood floor looks well.
The furniture is light and grace
full, and a general effect of light
ness is desired.
Walnut with carving from
solid wood makes the dining
suite shown today. Notice the
fluted legs, the crossed spears
with ribbon in the chair backs,
the curved corners of the table,
the classic leaf design on the
cabinets. All these are typical
Of the times.
This furniture is Of finest con-
Struction. The buffet has three
drawers at the top, and two
cupboards, each of which is
equipped with removable, lined
and divided drawers for silver.
There are six chairs in all with
two arm chairs and four side
chairs.

The Beauty Reporter

According to a leading beauty
authority, the crying need of
most modern skins is to replen-
ish the lipoid substances-fatS
that cannot be decomposed by
alkalines. Nine out of 10 women
have a tendency to dry skins,
and this tendency is aggravated
by exposure to sun, wind and
cold until those disagreeable
fine lines around the mouth,
from nose to chin and across
the Observation-Disclosures called
expression" lines become
deeply etched. The result is a
coarsened skin that is anything
but lovely.
A rich, penetrating oil is con-
Sidered one Of the most effective
agents for eradicating express
sion lines, and for this reason
several leading cosmeticians
make muscle oils. But only re-
Gently was it discovered that
muscle oil, besides softening and
nourishing the skin, is an ideal
carrier for vitamins, stimulating
herb juices, rare protoplasmic
and lipoidic ingredients and en-.
ZymeS. All these substances are
incorporated in a new muscle
oil which is just now being in
troduced in a form that is in
biological harmony with the skin
cells.
In applying muscle oil first
cleanse the skin thoroughly, then
apply a little at a time, working
these facial manipulations after
the oil has been applied. Start
under the jawline and pinch the
tissues between the thumb and

Gives Advice

Shed Better Go Back Home
Dear Miss Fairfax:
was encouraged to believe,
through our Representative, that
I could get job in Washing
ton. I had money, a little. My
clothes were still good, but now
my money is spent, my clothes
are showing signs of wear, my
shoes getting shabby, even the
soles thin. My landlady, once
SO gracious, is beginning to re-
gard me with suspicion. I owe
her money.

Western town. When he gave
me my railroad fare, and 5000,

pointedly, that he expected me
to make my own way. My STEP
mother said: Your father has
been very generous" Her lips
'were thin, and I thought her
eyes even menacing.
Now as to my question: There
is a man, between As and so
years of age, who processes to
love me. He says to ask him for
anything at any time, but, from
what I hear about this man, he
bears a bad name.
In fact, an old school friend
Of mine told me some hateful
things about him, but she did
say he was generous with
money. Can I trust my woman'S
wit to accept assistance from
this man. am 20. TWENTY.
My dear girl, nothing serious
has happened to you so far. If
you take up with this elderly
man of bad reputation, some
thing is sure to happen which
will be disillusioning and is
likely to change your entire life.
Let me advise you very firmly
to have your Senator or your
Congressman, upon whom you
have been depending for a job,
to write to your father and tell
him how hard jobs are to get.
My thought is that you will do
better at home than among
strangers, and I sincerely hope
that you will return to your
home and friends. Your father
has certain obligations to you.
Doubtless, your political back
ers can find you a job at home,
just as well as they can in Wash
ington.

ing. Some breeders have been
able to breed strains bearing a
predominant color, others with
distinguishing stripes or dots,
some with colored dorsal fins,
and still others with colored
Tyre and veil tails.
In keeping them it is neces-
sary to provide a temperature Of
water between 10 and 80 de-
grees, and although they will
survive a few degrees lower they
will not thrive and are apt to
become infected with various
fish diseases. They will live
also in much higher temper
atures, but in higher temper
atures, especially if the tank is
small. Care must be taken that
they are not overcrowded and
that the water is free of decay
ing particles of food or plants.
Refuge for Young
The female brings forth her
young alive and a litter will
run from a half dozen babies
in young females to as high as
ninety in mature breeders. The
adults will eat the young if
the tank is crowded or if Suf-
ficient refuge IN the form Of
plants is not provided. The
young are not produced as in
mammals as some believe. The
female lays eggs just as the
oviparous or egg-laying species,
except that she retains them in
the egg sac until they are
Matched and they are released
into the water as liye, swimming
creatures. Active breeders will
produce young every four to six
weeks.
Some keepers of these little
pets complain that their fish
are small, that they have
stopped breeding or that they
seen sickly and listless. Such
conditions are usually due to
overcrowding The fancier starts
with a pair or two. They pro-
duce young which are allowed
to remain in the tank which
soon becomes overcrowded and
the trouble starts.
In q small aquarium Of from
two to five gallons the popula-
ton should be maintained at
ratio of not more than four
fish to a gallon of water and in
breeding for special colors and
strains each pair should have
its own tank.
Loves and Jealousies
They should be given only as
much food as they will eat in a
few minutes, and they should be
fed regularly every day, prefer
ably in the morning, and never
after the room has become dark
at night.
Guppies are inactive in the
dark, and seem to sleep among
the plants or on the bottom, and
at such times will not take food.
If the room is kept lighted from
the moment daylight wanes they
may be fed at night, which.
while it is not as good as feeding
them in the daytime is better
than allowing them to go unfed.
It is a fascinating sight to
watch these little fellows con-
Quoting their lives in an aquar-
ium, a whole world in a few gal
Ions Of water. They have their
loves and jealousies and battles
all in plain view of their keeper,
and any fancier will always re-
call the thrill of discovering the
first litter of baby guppies.
If you have a good picture
of your pet, Liz Hume invites
you to send it in for use in this

with attractive-looking pots and
pans, gaily colored canisters to
hold tea, coffee, flour, sugar,
etc., and brighthued oil-cloth
neatly tackled on tables and

the shelves provide convenient
and neat hanging space for the
cooking utensils and one Of
those "on-a-door" closets are in
dispensable for hiding away

do dress it up with ruffled
checked gingham curtains, and
put a potted geranium on the
window sill. It makes an un-
believable difference, and takes
away that eating in the

to be depressing!
The icebox should be kept
bright and shining, and the
table and chairs can be painted
in enamel to match the curtains
and oilcloth. This enamel washes
easily, and presents a smooth
and inviting surface to the
guest.

Accessories
Always use the prepared, oiled

and trouble-the filled bag can
be easily removed, twisted shut,
and dropped down the incinera-

For Tired Feet

For Tired Feet
Tired feet should be soaked in
hot water, to which has been
added two tablespoons full of
iodine. Let the feet stay in the
bath until the water becomes
clear and the iodine has been
absorbed through the pores of
the skin.
Whipped Cream
A way to make whipped cream
