Tips
On Proper
Make up
Attractive Coiffur e
Also Helps to Set Off
Good. Points.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

TT is sign Of progress that superla-
tive claims are on the wane and
that every branch of beauty admits
its limitations. For instance, q make
up expert, who is largely responsible
for Hollywood's makeup perfection,
remarked to me recently:
Makeup Is invaluable. see it
creating an illusion of greater beauty
every day Of my life; see it glorifying
the beauty of our screen stars: yet I
cannot carry all the burden. I often
realize how inadequate makeup can be
when careful thought is not given to
other important features of the ap-
pearance.
"At a recent society ball. gala
event of the season, one debutante
with a very narrow and pointed chin
had applied her makeup to perfec-
tion, yet the complete effect was un-
satisfactory. Why? Simply because
she wore her hair in such q way as
to accentuate rather than conceal her
thin, narrow jaw. She had concen-
trated the bulkier part of her coiffure
in tiny rolls and curls on top of her
head. By contrast, this made her
small chin seem even smaller and her
whole head seemed topheavy.
Another young lady had committed
the same error-in reverse. Having a
full, determined jaw, she made the
mistake Of bringing her hair down
and fluflng it out at shoulder length.
AS result her jaw looked almost pug
naciouS."
There is one paramount thing to
remember, according to this makeup
specialist. The hair dress, like the
face, has a point of balance, the point
where the hair is worn heavier. This
balance point should be placed where
the final effect is most harmonious.
If the chin is thin and pointed, the
hair should be worn longer, so that
the balance point offsets the narrow
ness of the chin.
And reversely if the jaw Is full, the
heavier portion of the coiffure should
be worn higher on the head.
Keep the hair off the face, IL the
face is full and round. Don't cover up
too much of the throat or neckline if
a short neck accompanies a stout face.
But keep the hair full and fluffy if
the face is thin-bring soft, rolling
waves down to provide frame for the
face and features. But for the large
head-wearing the hair too fluffy can
make it appear almost lion-sized.
High forehead on thin face? Cover
it with bangs or waves worn on the
brow. Round face and small expanse
of forehead? Brush the hair well back
eyebrows may be bit thinner; but
not the pencil-line brow. of course.

Dorothy Dix Says
On the Roll of Heroes, the Henpecked
Husbands Name Should Often Lead

Wife tells him what he can and
cannot do She makes him punch
the home time clock even more rigor-
ously than he does the one at the
Office. She buys his clothes and feeds
him upon what she likes to eat. She
supervises his politics and religion.
She tells him where to sit when they
60 out together, and in the course
OF few short years he gets so sub
dued that he never opens his mouth
in her presence except to say yes,
ma'am."
NOW no martydrom compares with
~ that of the man who is hen
pecked to death because it is such
long drawnout agony. It is suffering
that must be borne through every hour
of every day for years and years and
years. We wonder not only how any
man can endure it. but also why any
man does endure it when there are
divorce courts handy and trains and
airplanes leaving for far parts almost
every hour.
I think that the reason so many
men stand for henpecking wives is
not because they are weak, but be-
cause they have the strength to bear
an almost uncomfortable burden. They
know that nothing on earth can
change bossy woman, or induce
her to abate one jot or little of her
petty tyrannies. They know that
nothing. save being struck dumb, can
stop nagging woman from nagging.
And they face the issue squarely that
they have either to leave her, or to
submit to her in order to keep their
homes from being a hell on earth.
\ II #*
THEY realize that they have made
q fatal mistake In marriage, but
they made it and they win not welch
on their bargain. So they set them
selves to pay In silence the price Of
their error in judgment. Besides.
there are the children. Their duty to
them. Their obligation to give these
children q peaceful home, home In
which there Is no wrangling between
the parents, and they buy happy
home for their children with their
own happiness. When the roll Of the
heroes OF earth Is emblazoned on the
final scroll Of fame, the names of the
henpecked husbands who have suf.

for the sake of their children should

ago a young Dutch medical officer,
named Eijkman, then stationed in
Java, made discovery which was
destined to become as famous to the
dietary world as that of Pasteur was
to the medical and surgical profess
sions. The bureau continues the story
in detail:
HE saw many cases Of very old
| affection, common among the peoples
of the Eastern Hemisphere, called
beriberi. He also saw chickens with
the same affliction. So he expert
mented with the chickens and found
that if they were fed on rice from
the peoples leftover meals the chick
ems also were afflicted, and at first
he thought there was something wrong
with the rice. Then he found that If
he fed the chickens the rice polishings,
containing the outer skin of the rice
| grain, they did not have beriberi, or
they recovered if they had it. So he
was convinced there was something in
the outer coat of the rice which chem
lists had not yet discovered. About
the same time the English scientist. F.
Gowland Hopkins, found that his labo-
ratory animals stopped growing when
he fed them just the pure substances
known to be contained in milk, but
they started growing again as soon
as he gave them a few drops Of real
milk So here was evidence of some
thing hitherto unrecognized in the
composition of milk.
| X 4 y
THESE discoveries started the
| search for the unknown food sub
| stance-which has now turned out to
be six, seven and maybe more, separate
new substances. They appeared to be
of one family, and DR.. Casimir Funk,
a Polish scientist, called the first one a
vitamine. The name is coined word,
from vita meaning life, and amines,
the chemical name for group Of sub
stances to which the first of the new
discoveries was mistakenly supposed to
belong. But the name vitamin was
kept without the e., then for con-
venience to chemists the different
vitamins were called by the letters of
the alphabet The first part Of the
name is appropriate, for vitamins are
essential to life.
1.-THE vitamins were not discovered
all at once, but singly. one after an
other Their names do not indicate
the order of their discovery. either
first came vitamin B, then vitamin A,
then vitamins C, D, E and G. At least
one more Is known to exist, but there is
no vitamin F, SO far.
THE vitamins are quite different in
character. They are different from
each other In behavior as well as in
composition, they serve different parts
or different processes in the body, and
they are distributed unequally in the
different foods.
"Vitamin-rich foods, therefore, are
not class by themselves. There are
some vitamins characteristic of certain

Thank You
Cards and

BY EMILY POST.

NEAR MRS. POST: How is it pos
sible to go about thanking people
one never sees for their Christmas
presents? Perhaps this sounds like
a riddle. but to explain further: We
are telephone operators in very large
company and get to see very few of the
employees and none of the clients.
Each year at the holiday season many
of these people send us gifts such as
candy or money. feel that we should
do something, but we never have, and
it may be too late for the Christmas
just past.
Answer-The usual thing to do is
to thank each person the first time he
or she telephones. Just say, Il want
to thank you, Mr.. Jones, for your
kind remembrance of me at Christ
mas" and then put his call through.
To one who is not likely to telephone,
write short note. Or, in this one ex-
ceptional instance, you can send
thank-you card. Having written so
often about the unforgivable rude
ness-as well as bad taste-of the
bride who sends q thank-you card
instead of a handwritten note, 1t is
necessary to explain that a thank-you
card is suitable only for present that
can be rated as Christmas caro-.
A wedding present and every present
of any value requires written note
of thanks.
Dear Mrs. Post: Will you please tell
me the correct way to write q gentle

There are some nice crepey weaves
