LANDON OFFERS
C. O.P. SOLUTION
FOR PROBLEMS
Promises to Make Fighting
Bid in Republican PreSi-
dental Race.

BY United Press
TOPEKA, Kas., May S.-Gov.
All NJ. Landon of Kansas today
embarked on campaign to inform
the average man and woman voter
of the Republican solution for i'm
portant problems to be stressed in
the presidential election.
Promising to make fighting cam
paign for the Republican presiden-
tial nomination, Landon charged
that President Roosevelts Admins
tration had acted too much on
snap tudgent," and said relief meas
ures had failed
We've had only one side of the
story for three and a half years"
he said in radio interview. I'VE
have been up against the greatest
propaganda machine the country
ever has seen, and the worst is
that the public has paid for It.
We Republicans must keep the
issues during the next six months
simple enough for the average per-
son "a understand"
Cites Need for Confidence
The greatest need of the people
today, he said, is revival of conf
oence in themselves and ability To
work out their own problems.
Our high national ideals, the call
for social justice. our goal of maxi
mum individual opportunity for
every man woman and child are all
betrayed 6y wasteful, slipshod, in
competent, happy go-lucky admins
tration. American people are given
half a loaf and charged for whole
loaf"
The Republican Party he de-
clared, must be prepared to find
honest solutions along sound, pro-
gressive lines.
Where business is hamstrung so
1t can not furnish goods or jobs, we
must free it. We must have equal
rights for ALL otherwise we won t
avoid class feeling which is being
fostered In high places"

Makeup foundations, powder
bases and liquid powder are all
very nice to use, provided they
are suitable to the skin.
Like most of the reliable prod
ucts, we have now, they are made
up of harmless ingredients, but
there are some types of skin that
are better without any makeup
base. They are some of the very
sensitive thin skins usually
the extremely dry type, and they
will frequently become irritated
with any kind of foundation.
We receive a number of in
QuirieS about this action of cos
metics, and in nearly every case
the product is condemned and
blamed for all the trouble when
it may be the delicate skin that
is the cause.
We know some girls whose skin
is so sensitive they dare not take
a shower or subject the skin to
the force of water at all without
having an irritation that takes
some time and plenty of soothing
cream to relieve. This is a patho-
logical condition that should not
be ignored. 1t is in no sense a
diseased condition, so we are told,
but one that must be humored.
When you know you have this
trouble, just avoid the treatments
and products that you find are
apt to set up this irritation.
You will have to forego the
Joy of frequent washing with soap
and water and use creams instead
for cleansing the face. To use van
iShing creams and oily cleansing
cream or even almond oil is Sooth-
ing; then a good tissue cream is
necessary and should be applied
every day or before going to bed.
Before the makeup is used, the
face should be creamed with the
cleansing cream, and when this
is removed, the rouge and powder
are applied directly to the SKIN.
Astringents are not necessary for
this type of skin, but for a skin
freshener one may use a light
sponging Of ice cold rose water:
Avoid heavy powders-the light,
fine powders are better, and when
the skin becomes irritated, medl-
Gated talcum should be used for a
few days or until the trouble dis
appears.
When you do wash with soap
and water. make it a thorough
operation by using a thick soap
lather and the finger tips to mas
sage around the nose and the cor
ners of the mouth; then rinse off
every bit of the soap film with
cool water and pat it dry with the
towel. This precaution is more
necessary during the cold weather
and will help to keep the skin
smooth and nice.
I will be glad to send you my
milk pack to clear your skin, also
packs for dry or oily skin, II you
will enclose a stamped, self-ad-
dressed envelope for each and ad-
dress Donna Grace, Beauty Editor

Of Romeo and Juliet" still fresh

caps to have a greater popularity
this winter even than they had
last year. The hairdresserS seem

youthfuhess and grace to any
comely head. So it's with special
pleasure that we present the Juliet

Personal Face Powder

Personal Face Powder
NOTHING is more important
Into good makeup than the
right shades of powder, rouge
and lipstick. And it's pretty
hard for you to select them for
yourself. Skin tones are so
subtle, with pinks and tans and
peach tones often so near that
it is impossible for you to de-
eide what color powder to buy.
Most people wear powder too
light, and if you'll watch the
faces that pass you on the
street, you'll find that a good
portion of the women miss the
tone of their skin entirely in
buying powder. The answer is,
have your own powder blended
for your own particular COM
plexion. This is the time of the
year to have your formula made
up, too, when your summer tan
has faded out, and you can
count on an even color for six
or eight months to come. So
go downtown this week and
consult a powder blending ex-
pert of the first rank who is
visiting one of the local stores.
Her name is Miss Hester, and
she will only be here this week,
so do take advantage of her
visit. She can also tell you the
exact shade of rouge and lip
stick that you should have to
bring out the best points in
your complexion and features.

NEVER have we worn as much
~ fur as we're wearing this sea-
son-at least not since the era Of
the cave man, or the prehistoric
man who wrapped himself in
skins. This year fur coats are al
most a uniform, and at least one
appears in the wardrobe of every
well dressed woman. Fur hats are
as popular here as they were in
the palmieSt days Of Russia. Fur
scarfS or trimmings appear on
suits and coats that are not all fur.
Fur gloves are worn, muffs are in
the fashion picture, and last, but
not least, we have bags trimmed
in fur Smart looking they are,
too, suede in envelop or top han
die styles, with mink gray fox or
Persian lamb trimming. They
have tiny heads of the fur, and a
fur ball on the end of the Upper
closing. They are nicely lined,
and fitted with purse and mirror.
The bags are in black or brown,
and with the different colors in
the furs, you are sure to be able
to match one up to almost any
color costume. They are IS.

For English Beauty
EOR many years, perhaps many
u centuries, the English have
been famous for their fine COM
pIexiOns. So it's no wonder that
their cosmetics are rather sought
after by the people of other cOun-
tries. One of the better known
English firms has been sending
cosmetics over to this country for
some time, and has now decided
to offer an Introductory set, priced
very low, to give more people a
chance to know their preparations.
1t contains complexion cream and
soap, toilet water and sachet,
each and every one of them ia
nous separately, but newly boxed
in this set. They are lavender
scented, and the whole box sells
for $1.35.
For names of stores showing
the items described here, call

don't get married.
It's easy enough to take a dare,
and comparatively easy to find
some sort of C 'rgyman or a JUS
tice of the peace who will perform
the ceremony.
But it's difficult to get the knot
united! And you'll be likely TO
find yourself knee deep in the
grins of your erStwhile friends.
An attractive young woman liv-
ing in Washington, D. c., found
herself in this kind of a plight
a few days ago. But as she's
having troubles enough Squirming
out of her take-a-dare marriage
and trying to keep a finger on the
very nice boy to whom she was
engaged before this escapade-I
shall not give her name.
"IN A DAZE"
Her plea, as she stood before the
bar of the District Supreme Court
and asked for an annulment of
the marriage, was that she was
in a daZe," because "dizzy and un-
able to fully comprehend what was
transpiring about her."
And then, bluShing and hang
ing her head with contrite mod
esty, she admitted partaking Of
certain alcoholic beverages, at a
social gathering"
1t seems she was not in the best
Of spirits at the social gathering.
She had expected her fiance to
be present, but business or a
broken-down automobile or some
thing detained him, and she felt
aggrieved, so she drowned her
grief in the alcoholic beverages.
A certain young Lochinvar-
from the South rather than the
WeSt-happened to be present,
and he did his best to make up
for the absent sutton.
LOCHINVAR RIDES AGAIN
He was attentive, compliment
tary and devoted. And as the
hands of the clock swung around
and the sutton didn't put in an
appearance, Lochinvar became
more and more sympathetic, and
the certain alcoholic beverages"
received one encore after another.
So the young lady and gentle
man, who had never met before
that evening, decided to take each
other "for better or for worse"
It did not take the bride long
to decide it was worse" rather
than better, and there was, of
course, the question of the fiance,
full of righteous wrath. Hence,
the plea before the District Su-
preme Court. At last accounts the
young lady and Lochinvar were
still married.
In England, in the good old
days, when every gentleman felt
himself entitled to three bottles
Of claret at dinner, there were
many such marriages.
Like the washington girl, men
of wealth and high social stand
ing found they had been WED in
a daze" and remembered nothing
about the affair later on.
"HIGH NOON" WEDDINGS
Marriages of this sort frequently
were managed by enterprising
ladies, of a kind the less said
about the better, until a law was
enacted, during the reign of the
Georges, that weddings must be
performed at high noon" The
idea was, if a gentleman we're
not cold sober at midday, he prob
ably never would be.
But high noon" was rather
an elastic term. One didn't have
to be married on the stroke of
IL; the ceremony, to be legal,
had to take place before the sun

from the door by which she en-
tered.
Yes.
No. When we pass our plate for
a second helping. we place the
knife and fork parallel with each
other, toward the center of the
plate, and with the handles turned
slightly toward the right. In this
position they are less liable to be
pushed off the plate.

HOSTESS SITS WITH GUESTS

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
"WiI you please inform me
whether or not it is proper for
a hostess to sit down at the
luncheon table with her guests,
or at the bridge table while re-
freshments are being served?
81 have attended both lunch
con and bridge parties and was
very much surprised not to have
the hostess sit down with her
guests. "P.
You are right in your surprise
and disappointment in not having
the hostess sit with her guests
at a luncheon or at a bridge
party. It is a provincial plan,
most awkward for the guests.
The guests want to talk with
the hostess, want to have her
present at every part OF her
party.
1.-THE plans the thing" The
clever hostess plans every detail
of her service before the party
so that she can serenely and con-
veniently sit with her guests. II
she sees that she has planned
too elaborate o menu Tor this,
then she should simplify her
menu so that it will be appro-
pirate for this service.
Her guests would prefer to
have simpler foods with the
hostess seated at the table, than
to have complicated dishes and
an absent hostess. Being absent
from her own table makes the
woman-giving-the-party not a
hostess but a waitress.
This question points the way
to the answer to why buffet SerV-
ice is so popular. With this kind
of service practically everything
must be planned for before the
party . menu, table-setting, and
so forth. The guests serve them
selves and the hostess must
be among those present."
MRS. Beeckman will be glad
to answer questions on good
manners submitted by readerS.)

There are many kinds of stock.
Perhaps this classification of them
will make their use more clear.
Beef, veal, mutton and poultry
each may form the base of the
stock.
Household stock is made by
cooking the meat and bones in
cold water. Both fresh and cooked
vegetables are added to give flavor
and nutritive value. This is the
base for ordinary soup.
Bone stock is made from the
meat bones. Vegetables are added.
This is the base for economical
vegetable soups.
Game stock is made by heating
the bones and trimmings of the
game in cold water and cooking
until all the flavor has been ex-
tracted.
Fish stocks are made from fish
and fish trimmings and water.
Vegetables are usually added.
Shell fish make good stock. The
fish stocks are used for chowders.
The old-fashioned process of
making soups took many hours.
Some gourmetS still consider soup
made in this way unsurpassed.
Beef is a favorite meat for these
soups. The parts that are best
adapted to soup making are the
shins, shankS, the lower part of
the round, the neck, flank, the
shoulder and the brisket. Extract
ing the marrow from the bone is
important. The butcher will pre-
pare the bones for soup making
for you.
Almost any vegetable can be
used successfully in the soup. Cab
bage, cauliflower, asparagus, corn.
onions, turnips, carrots, parsnips.
tomatoes, beans, peas, lentils, po-
tatoeS, spinach, celery, mush-
rooms, okra, are few of them.
A good soup must be well sea-
soned. Spices such as cloves, pep
percorns, bay leaf, sage, majoram.
thyme, summer savory, tarragon,
celery seeds are often used. These
spices can be tied ir a cheese-cloth
bag and dropped in the soup pot
to give this flavor.
The meat and vegetables used
in soup should always be started
cooling in cold water. This al
lows time for the meat juices and
vegetable flavor to season the
soup. Soup should be cooked long
and slowly. The water evaporated
during cooking should be replaced.
Here are some recipes for home
made soups that have a delicious
flavor.
Old-Fashioned Bean Soup
1 cup of beans
3 quarts of Geld water
"a pound of salt pork
/ beef bone
/ onion
/ carrot
/ turnip
- teaspoon Of cloves.
Soak the beans over night.
Drain. Pour beans into the cold
water. Add the salt pork, beef
bone, vegetables, and cloves. Boil
three hours. Serve with slices of
lemon.
Potato Soup
2 cups Of diced raw potatoes
2 onions sliced
l tablespoon of salt
cups of water
2 tablespoons of butter
tablespoons of flour
2 cups of milk
"a teaspoon of paprika
teaspoon of minced parsley
Boil 20 minutes in covered pan,
the potatoes, onion, and water.
Run through the sieve. Blend but
ter with flour. Add to the hot
milk. Cook until thickened. Add
potato mixture. Cook two minutes.
