as many new ways of using it

Cream Is
Aid To
Skin
By JULIET SHELBY

In my judgment, Mary
Aston, of the Warner Broth
ers studio, is one of the
most beautiful girls in these
United States, let alone
Hollywood - the city Of
beautiful women.
Throughout her screen career
she has retained definitely her
natural lovelineSs-a very trim
little figure; beautiful, luStrous
hair, untouched by bleach or
dye, and a complexion that is
the envy of many in the film
colony.
Her skin radiates health and
happiness; it's superbly fine
texture and rich coloring give
to Mary eternal youth. For TO-
day Miss Aston is as young in
appearance as the day she first
began her screen acting.
How does she retain this
youthful skin? First of all, she
guards her health assiduouSly,
Every morning of her life she
runs the mile around her Hol.

her diet for so long that she

much consideration as her
health routine.

Helpful Exercises

There are many other simple
and useful exercises which the
woman who has borne a child
can perform as she grows
stronger. but her physician is
the one who should suit them
to her individual condition.
Some can be done in the bath
tub when tub baths are again
permitted. These muscle drills
help a woman to regain her fig
ure and are generally beneficial.
Both in exercise and in the
resumption of her household
duties she should make haste
slowly. And the only rule for
woman with no servants and
with many responsibilities is
let all but the most important
things go!
From a housewives point Of
view, this advice is pure heresy,
but a healthy wife and mother
is of far more Importance to
society than a perfect house
keeper. 1t is so appallingly easy

maculately clean by the use Of
mineral oil. Whenever she has
a few. spare minutes at home
she applies a rich, nourishing
cream that penetrates into and
stimulates the pores of her
skin. But this mild circulatory
action is only one of the many
benefits this cream possesses.
It contains purifying oils and
balsams that reach the deeper
tissues and, through their anti
septic properties, permit the
healing of slight rashes or blem-
isheS.
One jar furnishes from IA to
16 treatments. You apply 1t
before taking a tub, or when
ever you feel the need of a
"pick-me-up." Allow it to re-
main for IS minutes without
massaging. Then, with tissues,
or soft linen towel, rub it off.
If some cream still sticks to the
skin, remove it with cleansing
cream or lotion.
Such a product is a boon to
any woman. And unless your
skin is in very poor condition, a
treatment twice a week is suffl-
cient to keep even a lazy skin
glowing with a fresh youthful
ness,

clear and one can start to add
up the facts and subtract the
false alarms, the outstanding
note seems to be the increased
interest in femininity. That
doesn't mean that the Paris
designers have copied the modes
of yesteryear and that they
are trying to put us all back
into clothes that grandma used
to wear. But it does mean that
there is a definite flavor which
reminds us of those days.
Perhaps it is best explained in
the words of Lucien Lelong. He
says that the spirit of femin-
unity is again abroad in the
land-that the spirit of the
mode is the same as that be-
hind the fashions of other days
when feminine charms were a
woman's great aim in choosing
her clothes. And so it is not at
all strange that the results Of
today's inspiration should, in
certain ways, resemble the re-
suit of a parallel inspiration of
another generation.
Seen in Fabrics
This is perhaps even more
evident in fabrics than in line,

Rest In Bed

The first essential of such
care is rest in bed for a period
from 10 days to two weeks, If
her case is normal. The usual
procedure is to permit her to
sit up in chair at the end OF
the shorter period, but not to
walk around in less than fort
night.
While she is in bed there are
certain simple exercises which
she should perform, as her doc
tor and nurse advise. Rolling
from side to side is customarily
the first exercise suggested;
then turning upon her abdomen.
Simple deep breathing exercises
three or four times a day, five
minutes at a time, are helpful.
Lying face down for increas-
ing periods of time, as the doc
tor presribes, helps the stretched
muscles to recover tone and to
support her organs in their nor
NAL position.
Another exercise which helps
these muscles is to lie flat on
the back, with no pillow, and
with arms and legs as straight
as possible while raising and
lowering the head. This should
not be done until three weeks
after the baby's birth.

For a Thin Face
Dear Miss Shelby:

Dear MISS ShelOy:
I have naturally waVy hair
about shoulder length. I am
now wearing it parted on the
side, drawn loosely over the ears
with two sausage rolls extend
ing from ear to ear. I also wear
several soft curls about the
face.
My face is long and thin, eyes
set wide apart and my ears are
too large to show uncovered.
My hair is medium brown with
a slightly reddish cast.
I would appreciate any infor-
nation you can give me as to
proper care and arrangement.
Sincerely, D. M. McC.
Dear Miss Nice:
There are so many ways OF
arranging the hair that one Is
not limited. If you are going
to continue to wear it long, your
way sounds as if it were becom-
ing. You could have it cut and
the ends curled around the
nape of your neck. The side
part would be best because your
face is thin. Be sure to go to a
reliable hairdresser if you make
any change.
Brush your hair daily and
have a hot oil shampoo occas-
ionally. A lemon rinse after
wards will keep your hair
bright.

Varied Fish
Dishes

From earliest Christian times,
fish has been given an exalted
place in religious diet. In fact,
in primitive and medieval
Christian art, the fish was
symbol of Christ, due, it is said,
to the fact that the initial let
tiers of the name and the title
of Jesus in Greek spelled the
Greek word fish"
Fish has infinite variety.
There are so many kinds avail
able that it is easy to avoid mo-
notony, the curse of the table.
BY the same token, there is
almost an infinite variety Of
ways to prepare this Succulent
"Lenten meat" for breakfast,
luncheon or dinner.
Probably the most important
item to be considered is how to
determine its freshness.
For Freshness
Look for red gills, firm,
elastic flesh, and eyes that are
bullying and bright, when you
are searching for the best the
market has to offer. A fresh
fish will sink when placed in
water, while one which is not
will float. There must be no
unpleasant odor, either, to the
fish which you will decide
upon.
To avoid tiresomeness in the
flavor, vary your method OF
cookery. Try steaming or boil
ing occasionally; or. if it is a
large fish, there is no more
satisfactory method than bak-
ing. If you decide to resort to
the frying pan, give the fish a
crumb coating for change.
And remember that, due to the
delicacy of fish flesh. fish is
cooked in far less time than
meat and at a lower general
temperatures saving of both
time and money.
For Variety
Here are some of the ways in
which fish can be cooked:
Baking Frying
Boiling Planking
Rr0ilinp Steaming
Paper Bag Cooking
And here, for handy reference,
is a list of the ways in which
fish can be served. You can see
at a glance to how many uses
fish lends itself: Canape, soup,
entree, main course, salad and
sauces.
You can plank fish and make
it look like a party feast by
little thoughtful garniShing and
by surrounding it with a piping
of mashed potatoes. If you have
no plank, bake the fish and
treat it the same way on a spa
ClOuS plaCCer.
PIanked Fish
The fish should weigh about
4 or 5 pounds. Have the fish
split and boned, the backbone
removed and as many Of the
ribs as possible. Lay on thick
white oak plank, skin down.
Cover exposed plank with a
thick layer of salt to prevent
plank from scorching. Brush
fish with melted butter. Place
fish under rather slow broiling
flame. Watch and turn plank
so fish will brown evenly. This
should take 20 to Is minutes.
When ready to serve, scrape
salt off plank and wipe. Insert
lettuce leaves under edge OF
fish to cover exposed part.
Serve with a mayonnaise made
with lemon juice and mix into
it some finely cut chives and

Perhaps you showed this
young man too plainly how
much you cared for him, and
it made him lose interest in

ThankY Your
Hostess
BY MRS. CORNELIUS
BEECKMAN

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Several friends and myself
have had a dispute over whether
or not it is correct to thank"
your hostess for a meal no mat
ter how formal or informal, or
to merely say how much you
have enjoyed it or any such
formality. D.
The best form is to thank
your hostess for her hospitality,
rather than for the meal itself.
And if you do this, articulately
and graciously, you have, in
thanking for the hospitality,
thanked also for the dinner as
well as for all other items of
the hospitality. Say, for in
stance, 1--WE had such a delight
full time tonight. Thank you so
much for asking me-"
OF course, if you know the
hosts well, and the party has
been informal, there is no rea-
son why you shouldn't also say
something about the food. But
the mentioning of the food
should only be incidental-not
a thanking for the food. For
instance, "I've had a beautiful
time at your party, Mary. Thank
you so much for asking me.
And please ask me again soon
when you're going to have that
famous lemon meringue pie of
yours again. 1t was grand!
