Do Rough Tasks

For that baby's sake, as well
as for the sake of his wife, he
will keep an eye on her and
restrain her from attempting the
hard scrubbing and other
strenuous labor especially
dangerous during the early
months of pregnancy and the
last month. He will save her
from much running up and
down stairs.
If no one else is around to
do the households rough work,
then the prospective father
should tackle it himself. Why
not? It seems to me that the
least he can do in the circum-
stances, considering the ordeal
which lies ahead of his wife.
She has to go through that
alone. Scrubbing floors for
her, or doing a weeks washing,
Is just a fair-minded. consider.

attitude toward the mother Of

You might try this procedure
if you have the same difficulty
as Bette Davis. I can assure
you that her complexion is very
lovely, and her skin hasn't that
"pasty" appearance which is so
common among women who
never use soap and water and
iaslst on using only creams.
Bette'S method is possibly the
wisest; for her skin has the
same freshness and sparkle that
you often see on a young child
who is literally shampooed sew

The liquid she uses is avail

of fatherliness will understand
such divagations from the nor

SuperfIuouS Hair


Dear Miss Shelby:
Is there any definite method
of removing superfluous hair?
My face and arms are covered
by a dark growth.
Which is the better rouge for
sensitive skin-li~'lid or paste?
Sincere H. w.
Dear Mrs. H. W.:
Superfluous hair can be re-
moved safely only by electrolysiS
and results are usually perma-
nent. 1t is the only known
method of destroying the roots
of the hair so they will not grow
again. Be sure, however, to
choose a licensed operator, one
who is reliable and skillful in
this line of work.
A paste rouge is better for a
sensitive skin since it's less dry
ing. It's a bit more trouble to
apply, but practice until you are
able to use it Skillfully. I know
you will like the effect.
If you want to know where
you can procure any article

The WGShinQton Times


Dear Miss Fairfax:
When I came to Washington
I didn't know a soul and I
should have been very miser-
able If it hadn't been for the
choral society in which I sing
baritone. Nov, I've become &C.
quainted with one of the So
pranoS, who is a lovely girl,
and has a first-rate voice.
We always have a little chat
before We begin to sing, and
once or twice she has let me
take her home. I am most
anxious to invite her to go to
the theater with me, but people
seem so very formal in this
town, that I hesitate to ask
her. Do you think it would be
o. K? BARITONE.
BY all means, ask the soprano
to go to the theater with you,
and I'm sure she will be de-
lighted to accept. Where did
you get the idea that Wash
ington was Every formal?
That's not the usual opinion
about the National Capital.

Her Pride Prevents

Dear Miss Fairfax:
When I returned to Washing
ton, at the end of my vacation,
a very nice young man whom 1
met when I was away, wrote to
me several times. When he
came to town he called me up
several times, and made one or
two dates to see me. He broke
one of these dates and made no
explanation.
Last week I received a letter
from him, from another city,
begging me to forgive him and
write. Although I still care for
him, my pride refuses to let me
make up. Will you please tell
me what I should do?
D,
Do have a heart, my dear D.,

break. He has apologized, an6

can go about a broken date.

girl I love, or take advantage
Of a contract at $4,000 q year?"
I'm only 18 now, and while
he thinks I should not be
married until I am 81, he tells
me he may never return from
South America. BABE.

should not be married until you

a season when hundreds Of thou

Sometimes q well-hit shot finds
the clubface contracting the ball

rubber strands inside the cover.
This makes the ball lopsided. Al
