Lovely weddings are all alike
in one respect; they're the re-
suit of careful planning. And
especially they're the result OF
wise budgeting, of knowing
what expenses will arlse-and
how much to allow for them.
How much should a we'd
ding cost?" 1t depends on the
kind of wedding you're planning.
Take the matter of expenses
connected with q church cere-
mony. Therell be the decorat-
ing of the church. If this is
done by your family or friends,
with flowers from your own
garden, the cost will be small.
But you may prefer to have the
services of a florist.
How to Budget
The best plan is to decide
what features of your wedding
are most important to you. Let
these things head the expense
list. Allow generously for them,
and let other details be done
more simply. Possibly you've
set your heart on lovely music.
You'd like to have a professional
soloist, or the choir, as we'll as
the services of the organiSt.
How balance your budget to al
low for this? What about the
cars to take the bridal party
to the church and reception?
Perhaps friends will lend theirs.
You may wonder what the or
ganist's fee should be. That de-

something you should find out
beforehand. There will also be

Questions

Dear Miss ping Rose"
Pretty name!
Five feet 6 inches is little
tall for fourteen-year-old girl,
but you are not too tall. Many
girls grow to their full height
at IA. You know the real show
girls on the stage are tall. Be
graceful and slender and you
will be attractive.
The soap you mention is
rated as a good one. All
soaps must be removed by
thorough rinsing. Your olive
skin calls for a dull or rather
dark powder.
Dear Miss "Pan"-Thank you
so much for your kind wishes.
It is true the henna will fade
and wash out with each sham
poo, provided it is the Egyp-
tan henna, but the compound
henna acts as a permanent dye.
The best method of remov-
ing the henna from your hair
may take a little longer than
you would wish, but the quick
restoratives are generally a little
light bleach or possibly light
colored dye, so my advice to
you is to go to a hairdresser
and have as much cut off
from the ends as you can spare,
and then try hot oil treatments
followed by egg and soap sham
pooS.
Your hairdreSser will know
what kind of henna you have
been using. You may do the hot
oil treatments and shampoos at
home, if it is not convenient to
go to a shop.
"Jen," send a stamped, self
addressed envelope, repeat your
request and will send you my
sure treatment for blackheadS
and pimples.
Mrs. A. G. A.-Sage tea will
have no effect on gray hair. Use
a dye for the best results. AL
ways select one a few shades
lighter than your natural color.
You may have my method, if
you wish.
Some of my girls are sending
in the stamped, self-addressed
envelopes but neglect to put in
a request. Always specify the
treatment or charts you wish
and I will send them to you.
You may have my makeup
chart, the hair dye method, the
treatment for blackheads and
pimples, or any of the others,
without charge if you wish, but
be sure to enclose a stamped,

of fruit may be sliced thin and
cooked with the rind in the
syrup. Pack in sterilized jars
and seal.
If a picked rind is desired,
prepare the watermelon r1nd as
directed above. The syrup is
made by taking one-half the
weight of the melon rind in
sugar, adding one cup vinegar
and one cup of water to two
pounds of sugar.
Insert one or two cloves In
each piece of rind and cook in
the syrup until tender. Let cool

rind in sterile jars, bring the
syrup to a good boil, pour 1t

lean Medical
Association this year selected
acne as the subject of his adj
dress, and we may feel assured
that this summarizes the best
scientific medical thought on
the subject. His conclusions
are not entirely cheerful, but
at least they are honest con-
illusions, which cannot be said
for the claims made by SO
many remedies for their treat
ment.
The most favorable results
In treatment have been with
the use of the X-ray, and with
the exact dosage obtainable
with a Coolidge tube it seemed
for some years that little more
was needed. However, early
good results have not always
stood up under the critical
examination of time.
With Hormones
At present there has been a
renewed interest in the treat
ment of acne with hormones
of the ductless glands. This is
suggested by the fact that the
disease occurs almost entirely
in young people, and those in
whom it persists are, in most
instances, females. The fe-
male hormone has been utilized
in treatment for that reason.
The conclusions reached are
that the treatment should be
selected particularly in regard
to the age of the patient.
When the X-ray is used on
patients under Is years, about
half of them have a relapse.
Inasmuch as treatment with
general and local measures has
nearly as good results in these
younger patients, and as the
X-ray treatment consumes time
and is somewhat expensive, it
is advised to use the X-ray
only in those patients whose
acne persists after the age Of
Is. This includes about half
of the patients.
After the age Of 18 use Of
the X-ray is the best method
of treatment, and will usually
result in complete cure, al
though relapses are common.
Very few cases persist after
the age of Is, it may be en-.
couraging to sufferers to know.
Questions from Readers
v. G.. c.: "A young friend
of mine has lately, on the
theory that it is good for her
kidneys, been taking small
doses of Saltpeter. She is
very fond of giving herself
such treatments, which are usu-
ally harmless, but this time I
am wondering if there might
not be some harm to the
heart or other organ"
Answer: Saltpeter is potas.
SUM nitrate and is a constitu-
ent of gun powder. 1t is
used sometimes for asthma
powders. The Epitome of the

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

uncle or very dear friend. Who,
in this case, is the person to
give me away at a formal
wedding? F."
Under these circumstances the
only alternative is for you to
walk down the aisle alone, after
your attendants, and then to
have your mother present you
in marriage.
Your mother will be seated in
the first pew at the left of the
aisle, and when the minister
asks, who giveth this woman
to be married to this MANI" she
will step from the pew, give your
hand to the minister and say, Il
do" Then she again takes her
place in the first pew on the
left.

WaistLines, Attention

Then there is the silhouette
with slim hips and pleated
skirt. And there are coats with
slim waistline, and there are
dresses with wide belts. For the
latter, be sure your waist is
slim. If necessary, wear a wide
brassiere that holds the bust up
firmly, and comes down over
your girdle, holding in the top
of the girdle as well.

MELLON MAY TAKE
STAND IN TAX SUIT
Chief Counsel Says He Will
Testify, but Does Not
Indicate When.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, February 23:-Some
time before his 5000 900 income tax
case closes Andrew w. Mellon will be
on the stand to tell his own story.
The Pittsburgh multi millionaire,
who seeks a $4,000 refund on his
income tax, is spending the week end
with his attorneys working on the case
in which the Government has coun-
ter claim he should pay more than
100000 in tax and penalties for
1891.
Frank j. Hogan. chief counsel for
Mellon, did not indicate when the
former Treasury Secretary will testify,
but it may be a week or more before
he does. Hogan was emphatic, how
ever, in saying:
"Of course, Mr.. Mellon will go on
the stand. We have nothing to hide"
The hearing is in recess until Mon
day when Robert H. Jackson, attorney
for the Internal Revenue Bureau, and
Hogan will resume their questioning
of witnesses before three members Of
the Tax Board Of Appeals.
An itemized list of Melons per-
Sonal assets and liabilities is in Jack
sons hands and he is understood to
be studying it over the week end
On the stand this week Howard M.
Johnson, Melons confidential secre-
tary, said that in 1881 the book
value" of Mr.. Melons personal wealth
was $97,o00,000, but added this might
not be the actual value"

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, February %.
Counsel for the Tennessee Valley
Authority pushed plans today for an
appeal to higher courts from a court
decision which holds its sale of sur
plus power in the Tennessee River
basin is illegal.
James L. Fly, chief counsel for T.
v. A., said the ruling of United States
District Judge w. I. Grubb would be
appealed in the Federal Court of Ap-
peals in New Orleans.
Judge Grub handed down his de-
cision yesterday. He said he was
ruling only on the validity of con-
tracts entered into by the power COM
pany and r. v. A. last year for the
sale by the company Of various trans
mission lines, the site of the Joe
Wheeler Dam and II distribution
centers in Northwest Alabama. He
held that the right of the T. ". A. to
perform the functions of a utility lay
in its showing 1t depended on its con-
duct Of constitutional power-Navi-
cation, flood control, national defense
and perhaps Others"
"But if it could not be attributed
to one of those powers" Judge Grubb
said, then the r. v. A. would be in
a position of doing utility business in
the State of Alabama and 1t would be
ultra wires and illegal.
whether the act Is unconstitu-
tional or illegal delegation of power
is a matter Of debate on which I do
not find 1t necessary to pass"

composed and in light spirits, Phil

Federal Judge, displayed no concern
today over his appearance in court to
be sentenced for first-degree man

The husky, self confident youth, who
was convicted of staying his friend,

Thanksgiving night. was scheduled to
come before District Judge Thurman
Hurst this afternoon to hear the pen
atty, which may be anywhere from four
years to life in prison.
He played dominoes with fellow pris-
oners in the little sandstone Jail yester-
day, while his diStraught father, Fed
eral Judge Franklin E. Kennamer, and
defense attorneys laid plans for a legal
battle in his behalf The first step in
this direction will be motion for
new trial. If this fails, the next step
is an appeal to the Criminal Court of
Appeals. J. A. McCollum Of defense
counsel said today:
I'm the event we receive the mini
mum sentence of four years there Is

possibility. however. is extremely re-
