Etiquette
Give Tea for
Daughter
ByMRs.CORNELIUs BEECKMAN

ByMRS.C CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
'cDear Mrs. Beeckman:
'Is it proper for me to give
my daughter, who is to be mar
ried very soon, q bridal shower?
/ have a number Of friends 1
would like to invite as they
will mot be invited to her other
showers?
'MOTHER."
I'm never enthusiastic about
the giving of a bridal shower
by the brides mother or the
groom's mother or any other
close relative Of the bride or
groom. It always, it seems to
me, gives the appearance of be-
ing a promotion" for gifts. =.
and it usually is just this.
Why not have a tea party
and invite these friends of
yours to tea in honor of your
daughter? This compliments
your daughter, and doesn't
bring in this moot question of
suggesting gifts.

Beauty
Treating Skin
Blen7iSheS
BY DONNA GRACE

~ A4NANGA NNAS6ANO
We have a right to expect
beauty products to be safe and
harmless, and most of them are
if the directions are followed.
There is one common mistake
that many girls make, however,
in using lotions and creams for
skin blemishes- they write and
tell me of using certain products
that have made the trouble
more aggravated than it was be-
fore they started the treatment.
They tell me they rubbed in
these creams morning and night
and gave the face a thorough
massage each time, but are quite
heartsick and discouraged at the
results.
Certainly the result of such
q treatment will prove unsatis-
factory and sometimes disas-
trous. SKIN blemishes and erup-
tions should never be rubbed or
maSsaged. They are nearly al
ways a skin or surface infec-
ton, and any rubbing or mas
saying may have a tendency to
spread this infection.
All cosmetics should be ap-
piled carefully, either by patting
with a little pad or sterilized
cotton or with masks.
There is, however, one vigor-
Gus treatment that the average
case of skin blemisheS needs,
and that is a scrubbing with a
creamy lather of soap and water
once or twice a week, followed
by a thorough rinsing with cool
water. This rinse should be fol-
lowed by a good, gentle Spong-
ing of an iced antiseptic or
aStringent.
I must remind you to keep
the hands off the face. We
should not touch the face with
the finger tips at any time un-
less the hands have been steril-
lied. A large percentage of skin
trouble, we believe, could be
traced directly to the invisible
germs that may be on the
fingers and hands.
The Washington times., 1935-09-30


that, as a matter of fact, it was
probably a defense mechanism
Of the body; that germs did not
thrive so well at a high tenn
perature and immune reactions
were increased.
From that it was but a step
to regard fever as a healing
measure, and to actually induce
fever for the treatment of vari-
GUS diseases.
This idea in our day was
started by Vienna neurologist,
Professor Wagner-Jauregg, who
used it in hitherto incurable
nervous affections, particularly
general paralysis. In order to
induce fever, Wagner-Jauregg
first inoculated patients with
malaria.
Used by AncientS
Such treatment, however, by
no means began in modern days.
The ancientS were well &C.
quainted with the use of fever
in treatment. Hippocrates de-
scribes its effect upon mental
conditions, and Galen treated
melancholia with malaria. Hot
baths, which sent the body tenn
perature up, were popular with
the Greeks and Romans, as
well as the Egyptians and an
cient Jews. In the fifteenth
century the physicians of Louis
XI Of France advised him to
contract malaria in order to get
rid of his epilepsy, and an old
medieval physician is reported
to have said: "Give me a means
of causing fever and I will cure
most diseases"
Not only is general paralysis
treated in this way now, but
other nervous conditions, such
as locomotor ataxia, Parkinson's
disease, epilepsy and certain
mental troubles; also various
forS1s of arthritis, especially
those in which the superficial
body temperature is low.
There are many ways Of in
ducing fever-one by the in
lection of malaria: another by
the injection of typhoid bacilli.
Effective
In 1929 the General Electric
Laboratories noticed that the
operators of radio generators
carried a temperature. Almost
at the same time it was noticed
that the same phenomenon ap-
peared in the radio operators on
big ships.
This led to the conclusion that
short ether waves were possessed
of the property, and an instru-
ment known as a "pyrexoreter"
is used in many hospitals. which
will induce a temperature of
1O2 to 103 in half to three-quar-
terS of an hour.
For those who cannot have &C.
cess to these methods, some
friends of mine have found thaE
simple immersion in a very hot
bath is an effective way of EN-.
ploying this treatment.

Special Case

Suppose, however, that for the
time being I limit myself to this
special case, wherein I am on
the side of the lovers and in
favor of their marrying now or
next week, or whenever they
can secure their elders consent.
Being an incorrigible lover Of
romance, I am in favor Of all
marriages soundly based on
genuine love. What I deplore
is a half-hearted, casual, will
ing-to-try-anything once" attltuoe
toward marriage.
Where there is serious love
and understanding OF what mar
riage means and no actual OBJ
Stacle, I should be inclined to
close my eyes to this possible
objection of the brides extreme
youth.
There's no doubt that youth
full marriages have an excellent
chance of being happy ones.
Perhaps they have the nest
chance. Who shall say?
"I have q good job and want
to marry right away" says this
would-be bridegroom. ''Rosaleen'
INV sweetheart, is under 16. She
is the sweetest thing in the
world and loves me as much as
I do her. When we marry, we
shall live at first with my par"
ents, and my mother will train
her to be a housekeeper.
"Don't you think my idea Is
the right one?
unfortunately she has two
older stepsisters, unmarried and
not even engaged, who are
Jealous of her. These girls make
q fuss and stand in her way.
This makes her stepmother u1l.
easy, although they have no real
objection to me. The stepmother
is not unkind, only Indifferent,
and is trying to delay our mar"
riage till her own daughters are,
at least, engaged.
"But / love ROSaleen so much

shallying, I shall make her

BOY MISSING TWO
YEARS FOUND IN DEL.

Mr.. Merriken, step-father of Jack
Welty, who disappeared from Sails
bury two years ago, returning from
FELTON,, Delaware, last week reported
to Chief of Police N. H. Holland at
City Hall that young Welty had been
living in that town for the past two
years.
Mrs. Mabel E. Merriken, the boys
mother, had left on Wednesday of last
week for Whiting, Indiana, to view
the remains of 15-year old boy,
found by police on the beach there, to
ascertain if it was her son. Mrs. Mer-
riken had viewed the body but was
rot sure whether the boy was her
son and had stated that she would re-
turn later with her brother from Ham,
mond, Indiana.
Merriken told Chief Holland that
young Welty had attended school in
FELTON,, which is considerably less
than hundred miles from Salisbury,
last year and was again enrolled this
year. He gave his name as Jack Lin
dy Welty. Reading in the newspap-
ers that Mrs. Merriken had gone west
to view the body of the boy found in
Indiana, the teacher communicated
with Mr.. Merriken which led to the
identity of the youth. Merriken adj
vised his wife and pending her return
left young Welty at FELTON, where he
is said to have a good home.
He had told the teacher, Merriken
said, that his father had gone west
and his mother had died in Salisbury.
The boys father, now living in Chi
cago, had attempted to identify the
body but was unable to do so, not
having seen the youth for a decade.
The mother, who remarked, lives
about three miles from Salisbury.
The body found in Indiana, victim
Of a degenerate, was positively iden-
titled Sunday as that Of James Canty
of Pittburgh, by his mother. William
