With thing humming up on
Capitol Hill-we picked it out
as the very spot for a little
quiet snooping-just to see what
some of our great lawmakers
are wearing.
Never will forget Jim Ham

conventional black-but i'm dark

his clothes for toWn 1DeGr there
is Glways some characteristic

tinctive individual.

last weeks Fashion Congress,
and will show the winning
costumes on this page this
week. The judges were enthu-
siastic about the idea of wear
ing prints, as we'll as about
the frocks themselves, and they
often had difficulty in choosing
between the two that we're
shown together.
It's noteworthy that most of
the prints being shown now,
in fact all that we showed at
the Fashion Congress, were
rather low in price. In spite
of predictions of rising prices,

tired of this and thought l was
tired of her.
I used to receive quite a few
letters from hec and she came to
our home number of times
still I never went back to her.
Now that she has fallen in
love with someone else would
give anything to have her back
again but she won't hear of it.

Just another case of blessings
Frightening as they take their
flight. That law seems almost
inevitable. Dozens of young
people write me the same story.
They never realized how much
they cared till someone else
walked off with their beloved.
Husbands and wives often make
the same painful discovery. The
answer is-and I don't mean to
be cynical-don't think person
has poor taste, and is unworthy
of being loved, just because he
or she loves you.

Tomato Cocktail
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
When one is served a tomato
cocktail preceding a dinner,
and it is placed in a bowl of
ice about midway up the glass,
is it proper to drink it from
the glass or to eat it with q
spoon? M.
The tomato cocktail is drunk
from the glass. Since people
vary as to what condiments
they prefer to add, we may, if
we wish, sip the cocktail with
a spoon first, and then, after
we have added what we wish
to add, drink the cocktail.
"Opening Night" Program
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I am in doubt as to how to
word a telegram Of congratular
tions to a young boy on the
opening night of a School-term
play. This boy has been very
nice to me for the last eight
months. taking me to shows,
football games and dinner
dances. Is a telegram correct?
When should it be sent? Or
would a gift of some sort be
more preSentable? z.
A telegram would be more
appropriate than the sending
of a gift. Your telegram might
be Worded something like this:
"Friendliest greetings and all
good wishes for the success Of
the play tonight"

Secrets
Of Movie
Stars
BY JULIET SHELBY

Lovely Bette Davis, the
popular Warner Bros. star,
has a skin that is as smooth
and fair as a bahy's.
And her skin has to stand
lot of mistreatment. How
would you like to be made up
in heavy brown grease paint
at seven in the morning, al
lowing hot, strong lights to
beat down on you until late
the same day? Bette often
goes through such long days of
work at the studio, for you
know how many fans she has,
and how those fans demand
more pictures starring her!
Well, this little New England
lass uses hard sense in caring
for her lovely complexion. She
told me of her beauty routine,
and I was delighted to learn
that she is one Of those wise
women who use a masque
every day or so to tone the
skin and refine the pores.
After a good cleansing with
cream, sometimes two and
three, she applies a cream
masque that is not too harsh
for her skin. There are
masques and masques, and it
is up to you to choose one
that is suited to the type and
age of your skin. After a few
minutes of resting (probably
spent in planning the decorat-
ing of her Cape-Cod-b bungalow
in-Hollywood) she removes the
masque and primps up a bit
to welcome home her young
husband!
And she can greet him in the
assurance that her skin has lost
its fatigue and every speck of
grease paint has been removed!
Even though you are not for
tunate enough to be a star, you
are indeed Fortunes child in
not having to use grease paint.
Even so, your skin probably
needs the same considerate
treatment that Bette gives to
hers. Just new on the market
is a mild, but effective masque
for young skins. 1t looks and
acts like a respectable cold
cream, but you will be surprised
at the additional power it has!
It is simple to apply and easy
to remove. My only caution is
that you restrain yourself from
using it every day! A masque
should be used not more fire.
quently than once a week, and
if your skin is young, I would
suggest once every two weeks or
ten days.

ing where you can procure any

umn, phone The Washington

papers prompt provision of an
incubator into which the new.
born mites could be tucked,
we who are trying to save the
babies found our task much
easier.
It is in appreciation of all
this interest and helpfulness
that I have consented to tell
newspaper readers in series
OF articles the intimate, de-
tailed, scientific fairy tale Of
the only recorded case in med
1cal history where quintuplets
all lived to become healthy, in
teligent, happy little. beings.
Here, in itself, is an object les
son for parents, five times re-
peated, in how babies should be
nursed and tended. These ar.
tlcles also will explain the appli-
cation of simple, accurate and
up-to"date scientific principles in
the Supremely important field
Of health for babies and their
mothers.
There will be no encroach-
ment upon advice properly to be
given by the family physician,
whom every mother is urged to
consult before her children
come, and afterward. But she
will perhaps turn to him more
readily if she has a clearer un-
derstanding of the basic impor-
tance of proper hygiene for both
child and mother.
The little Dionne girls have
profited by the best that science
and medical skill could give
them. I consider that they owe
their very existence to the disin-
terested vigilance and brilliant
resourcefulness of my brother,
DR.. William A. Dafoe.
Tribute to Brother
Heavy demands are made
upon his time and strength
by his extensive private prac-
tice in Toronto and by his
lectures at the University of
Toronto for the department of
obstetrics and gynecology. Yet
he never has failed the quin.
tuplets in a crisis.
They were born in the most
primitive surroundings, with
only the simplest conveniences
for doctor and nurse. Within
. day he arranged for the de-
livery of modern aids and
equipment. His grasp of the
emergency was instantaneous.
He also is responsible for
the carefully kept medical rec
ords, which chart such import
ant details as the weight, the
calorie consumption and the
fluid requirements of each
child.
The little babies owe him,
and the science for which he
stands, a tremendous debt of
gratitude. So do I.

Chippendale, England's great
designer of the Eighteenth Gen.
tury, conceived the idea Of a
useful table which, when set
back with the top tipped down,
had the added advantage of
being decorative. The mahog-
any which he introduced lent
itself perfectly to smooth and
subtle carving.
Today we find tilt-top tables
made with plain modelled edges,
or, like this one, with piecrust
edges. Some are 80 inches in
height and are useful to hold
lamp, books and flowers; others
are five or six inches lower and
are placed in front of a sofa
for tea or coffee, or set at
either end as a lamp table.

A Fable

There is a fable of hound so
swift
No prey can distance it's pursu-
ing feet.
And of a fox with lightning
speed for gift
And how the two one morning
chanced to meet,
The hunter whose poor quarry
was foredoomed,
The hunted, destined never to
be caught:
And how they ran while day by
bright day bloomed,
How night on night they fled,
as swift as thought.
Perhaps the hound is each
mans ardent hope;
The fox, perhaps, perfection he
would gain,
Forever racing up times view
less slope
BY day, by night, through rap
ture and through pain.
Look in your life! The lean
flanked hound goes by
Behind the fox. like lightning
in the sky!
