In giving her letter 1 SAID thaS
only Solomon could answer it.
But a number Of persons who
read this column have written in
to say what they would do in
such an unhappy situation.
Her Own "Price-Tag"
Dear Miss Fairfax:
II feel heartily sorry for any
woman who finds herself in the
position of "Unloved and Un-
wanted" But she has put her
own price-tag on herself, and il
is entirely too cheap.
mo woman should tolerate
such treatment, and since her
mother lives with them and helps
to defray the household expenses,
in her place, would get a job
and find my own amusement.
But she must be weak char
acter to allow her children to talk
back to her in such manner. If
1 had children, they would be .
pleasure to me, and why any
woman continues to stay with
such a man is a mystery
FAITHFUL READER
A Mans Answer
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Unless your correspondent,
who signed her letter "Unloved
and Unwanted" is exaggerating
her miSerieS to the degree, she
has certainly found the prize huS'
band.
why doesn't she take her
troubles to the Legal Aid Society,"
get a Job, and save her children
before it is too late?
ANY man who teaches young
children to disobey and belittle
their mother, has no right to their
custody. In that way gangsterS
and criminals are made. And we,
in the United States, have enough
of these. ..-.
"A HUSBAND AND FATHER"
Thinks Maybe She Loves Him
Dear Miss Fairfax:
ut would be useless to give any
woman advice who could write
you such a letter as 'Unloved and
Unwanted.'
cts disgusting to imagine that
a woman would not have pride,
spunk or whatever you choose to
call it, to put up with such abuse
from a man. Maybe she loves
him, and if so anything that could
be said would be useless.
"If I were in her place I would
have shown him reprisals long
ago and I'd stop crying on other
women'S shoulders.
I'm regard to the children, I
would take them and claim the
protection of the court.

Is there anything that makes
you feel more awkward than to be
guilty of such an accident? Guests
and hostess and the unfortunate
person who caused the damage
are all embarrassed. At moments
like this, good manners save need
less distress.
The charming, wor ldly-wise
hostess will take the matter cas-

pieces removed but will pay as lit

whole incident. Gladys will not

but she will replace the vase later
if she can.

not be as spectacular as the over

may merely trip over the rug as
we enter the room; or knock an

When you admire those willoWy,
Slander screen stars, no doubt you
wonder why you were not so fav-
ored by some fairy godmother.
Certainly they would be chosen
for this fascinating career Of a
movie star-why not? Look at
their adorable figures.
Then, by way of consolation,
you tell yourself: With my fea-
lures and eyes and my nice hair
1 would be far more attractive
than Miss So-and-so, If I only had
her figure"
Well, if that is all you lack,
why not include the lovely figure
with your other charms? Some Of
the girls who are now the most
envied for their 1.-the gracefulneSS
were far from slender when they
began their screen career. We
could name a few of your favorite
stars who were never given i'm
portant parts until they reduced
to a certain weight. Then it was
that their future was secure and
they became famous.
After the approved figure has
been acquired it may be retained
only by following a strict routine
Of diet and exercise. This alert
care and abstinence is seldom any
sacrifice for the girl who has ex
perienced the supreme joy Of a
slender body.
There is nothing that will as
sure such poise and subtle charm
as q perfect figure, and it is just
as great an asset to the society or
business girl as it ever was to the
screen beauty. So, why not start
now and possess this kind Of
beauty?
You will find my special diet
that includes exercises is just
what you need for figure-molding.
There is no charge for it, but en-

Well seasoned sauces offer
grand possibilities for revamping
such dishes. For left over meat

cream sauce try using celery
sauce. Substitute celery stalk for

Cheese sauce served with Gro.

Anniversary
Reception
RS.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN

ByMRS.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
my mother and father are cele-
brating their golden wedding ann
versary very soon and are holding
a reception at their home from
4 to 7 o'clock for friends and rela-
tiveS.
What I am anxious to know is,
should my mother wear a hat
during the reception, also the as
SiStantS?
IF a toast Is to be proposed to
the bride and groom of so years,
at what time during the reception
should this take placer "G."
Your mother would not wear a
hat during these receiving hours,
since she is the hostess. For these
four-toseven hours, which are the
customary tea hours, her as
sistantS would wear hats.
This toast should be suggested
when the reception is at its
peak" say at about 6 o'clock.

It certainly is not a just pre-
judice. Part of it is psychological
If chicken a la king" had been
introduced under the title of
leftover chicken creamed with
mushrooms and peppers" it is a
question whether it ever would
have attained the popularity it
now enjoys.
So you see, christen your dish
with a new name and serve it
with pride instead Of an apology.
That is half Of the secret, though.
For leftover meats, croquettes,
meat pies, and hot sandwiches
are suggestions. Cubing the cold
meat and combining with salads
and omeletS or creamed mixtures
Is also a possibility.
Before making your meat salad,
marinate the meat for one-half
hour in French dressing that has
had lemon juice and steak sauce
added to it to make it more
acid and spicy than usual. Then
combine with celery and mayon-
naiSe, and garnish with celery
leaves, picked beets caperS or
hard cooked eggs.
For Stews of meat, chriSten
them fricasseeS and serve covered
with a rich biscuit dough or with
dumplingS. CaSSeroleS of meat
are more simple to prepare and
can be made delicious if vegetables
such as carrots, onions, potatoes,
and tomatoes are added with a
suggestion of celery and parsley
and q small bit Of turnip.
For stewS made from lamb and
mutton, string beans are excellent.

mixture. salt and pepper, and
three pieces Of broiled bacon that
have been cut up very fine. Stuff
the turnips with the mixture.
Lay in a shallow pan so that
they do not touch, pour over them
a half cup of rich cream, and
bake for five minutes. Serve as
a garnish for wild duck or meat.

HANDSHAKING

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
"Is it proper for a young lady

ing introduced to q young man.
or should she wait until the
young man extends his hand.
ROSE"
1t is the young lady's privilege
Of extending her hand if she
wishes to, shake hands with the
young man who is. being intro
duced to her. The young man
waits for her to do this, and
should not extend his hand first.
But, of course, it is not necessary
for her to shake hands when a
man is being introduced to her.
It is correct, if she wishes, but it
is not necessary, and unless there
is some special welcoming Of the
introduction, usually the woman
bows and says, How do you do?"
without shaking hands.

Health
EyeStrair7 and
Headache
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D

1
Most Of us use our eyes from
IL to is hours every day, and
when anyone is bothered with a
chronic headache, certainly the
first thing that should be thought
of Is a proper examination Of the
eyes to see that they are adjusted
to meet the demands Of this much
work.
Many people do not like to wear
glasses, and because Of the fear
that this may be found neces-
sary, they frequently conceal i'm
portant facts about the history
Of their headaches from their doc
tors.
Although headaches from the
eyes usually are bilateral, on both
sides Of the head, sometimes they
are unilateral owing to differences
in the accommodation Of the two
eyes.
Simple Errors
Occasionally headaches may
precede or call attention to so
severe a disturbance as glaucoma,
but most of them are due to SIM
pie errors of refraction-aStigma-
tiSm, which can be corrected by
proper glasses. These headaches
are naturally evening headaches,
coming on after the period Of
strain upon the eyes.
| TIIriOIIcIvy an011Uh q YoY1Vahar of
tests which have been made con-
cerning the relative strain of diff
ferent occupations and pastimes
have shown that the moving pic
lures do not impose very much
Of strain on the eyes, not nearly
as much as reading or other close
work. In the old days Of the
flickers, the silver screen might
have caused some headaches of
ocular origin, but with improved
technique this is no longer true.
can recall many people who
have been relieved Of a trouble
some headache by the simple pro
cedure Of having proper glasses
fitted, and I know of no more
gratifying experience.
Questions From Readers
S. E. s.: "(D How many calories
in a 12-ounce bottle of beer? (2)
Does drinking five bottles Of beer
daily cause excess fat? 90 Does
five bottles Of beer cause too much
water retention in blood and
tiSSueS?"
Answer: Prof. Walter H. Eddy,
Of Columbia University, analyzed
q number of common brands Of
beer. The bottle beers contained
from 2.78 per cent to 1882 per
cent alcohol. Alcohol yields seven
calorieS per gram. There are 30
grams in an ounce. In the analysis
just referred to, there were 191
calorieS per pint. CD It depends
on what you eat with the beer.
Beer drinking with q full diet
usually tends to excess fat. 80
No, it causes no water retention
whatever, in the strict sense.
j. L.: "I am very much inter
ested in your article on the pneu-
mothorax method of curing tuber-
culosis. Is pneumothorax used in
curing other lung diseases or con-
ditionS, such as pneumonia, pleur-
isy or empyema?"
Answer: It has been used in
pneumonia, but its value is not
established as yet. It is used in
lung assesses, but not in en-
pyema.
