Impulsive
''Teen'' Age
Love Affairs
Differ Greatly From
Deep Mature Va
riety That Grow.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

| A BOY In his teens, 18 to be exact,
writes to ask about love affairs
! between boys and girls his age. He
| is very much in earnest. and his
cropping questions show his need OF
help. Who is wise enough to answer
such questions? Fathers and mothers
might be most helpful if they were
not the fathers and mothers of the
children concerned. They cannot help
their own children in this particular
need because something blinds them
| deafens them, chokes them, the mo-
ment such question rises. Teachers
cannot know the children deeply
enough to answer. Now and again
there is an inspired teacher or clergy
man who has the gift of insight and
much wisdom who stands friend tc
such troubled children, but most OF
the time they must grope along with
out light. I wish I might anwser the
boys questions authoritatively, but all
I can do is make few very general
| suggestions.
| Boys and girls in their teens are
rarely mature enough to consider mar
rying. 1t takes about 80 years Of living
to give a young man experiences that
mature him sufficiently to decide upon
marrying and rearing family. Some
are ready sooner, but few, very few
are ready at the teen" age. Girls are
usually more mature than the boys
but they. too, should wait until they
have had more experience with the
world and its people.
What makes it so hard for us tc
explain the situation to the children
is the fact that the necessary expert
ences differ with the person con-
cerned. The essentials are knowledge
of oneself and of the effects of COM
mon experiences upon other people
How can you explain that? Yet those
experiences and their Interpretation
are of vital importance to the young
people who are to marry.
The boy asks should he tell q girl
that he loves her if he is not certain
about it? How could he? Is he to
say, II love you. maybe?" And what
is she to say but. 'I love you. too
maybe?' Perhaps that is about as
good basis for mutual acquaintance
as any. but both ought to try hard to
understand that it is acquaintance
not an engagement to marry. It is
best not to take these boy and girl
affairs too seriously, but to enjoy them
as friendships, and be ready to let &c
when one or the other feels that way
That is not always easy because one
of the two tires first. Then the other
suffers. But suffering is a part OF
love. True love suffers gladly, but the
false sort suffers alouu with tears and
beratings that are soon over.
Love lasts, grows stronger with the
years. There is nothing in life as fine
| as the love that binds a man and a
woman who have lived together. That
love is worth waiting for, worth suffer-
ing for, worth living for. Don't let
youthful impulse cheat you out OF it

Torn lace edges or medallions that
grace the delicate teacloths and nap
kinS may be brought back to their
original beauty. Worn crochet spreads
or knitted ones, that grandmother
made so many years ago, may be
brought back into usefulness by mend
ing or reinforcements in weak spots.
Moth holes, too, may be rewoven;
that is, of course, If the holes are not
too large and the material Surround-
ing the damaged area Is substantial.
Sometimes wearing apparel and linens
are ruined by strong acids used in
Iaundering-these holes. we learned,
can also be mended If the material is
not too thin.

business women and bachelors, rem

wives who feel that the hours spent
mending could be utilized to better
advantage! Worn cuffs and collars
on shirts are expertly turned, at this
shop, and if new collars or cuffs are
needed these are cleverly made from
the tail" portion of the shirt. Sleeves
may be shortened or heightened, sis

will be nicely patched or brothers
knickers made larger in the waistline.
BEFORE you pack away some Of
~ the heavy Winter clothing it
would be we'll to give them a "onCe
over" to determine if there is any re-
weaving or mending needed, and while
you are about it go through the linen
closet and dressers and gather all
those things that you have pushed
aside because of needed repair-pack
them into a basket or suitcase and
take them to mending parlor! You
will find that you can save many dol
lars by bringing them back into con-
dition. And before you put the
blankets away this Spring have them
cleaned and take them down to have
new bindings put on them.
| Lip rouge stains are almost as
harassing as are cigarette burns;
hostesses will be glad to learn that
there is now a product on the market
that will remove the rouge like magic
from those lovely dinner, tea or cock
tail napkins. The stain remover
comes in liquid form which is violet
in color. You just saturate the stained
portion and blot up both the liquid
and rouge with blotter, and presto!
Your linen is spotless again!

Loveu Thomas The woman
would find appealing is the one who
would be considerate at all times for
her man and his opinions and COM
forts.
She would be companionable. and
whatever her mans interests might
be, wherever his work might take him,
she would have the ability to make
herself part of his life. She would
be always ready and eager TO 80 with
him. even to some God-forsaken part
of the world. And once there, she
would make that lonely, deserted place
a Towering garden.
She would have graciousness ana
poise. All people would feel at ease,
happy, in her presence. She would
give pleasure by her grace and tact.
I like a woman to dress well, to have
some esthetic sense and be neat. She
should have a natural, healthy look,
and for that reason ! prefer little or
no makeup.
But, to my humble way Of thinking,
all women are grand. And to me they
are a complete mystery-a mystery j
one day. hope to solve! ,.t

TT IS hard to estimate the amount
of damage the average diner leaves
in his Cor herr wake! That sounds
surprising, We know. but the fact
remains that every year thousands Of
dollars worth Of linen, rugs and fur
niture are ruined by people who are
thoughtless and careless. A recent
survey sponsored by fire insurance
companies shows that the greatest
percentage of fires. large and small,
are caused by smoldering cigarette
ashes or stubs being flicked onto the
rugs or tablecloths! And in an
article appearing in one of our weekly
magazines it was stated that one
manager of a New York hotel finds
that in an average month about 450
tablecloths and half as many napkins
are damaged by burns.
Fortunate 1t is that there are mend
ing and reweaving concerns, for other
wise the loss involved would mount
to breath-taking figures! BY clever
reweaving most Of the linen can be
salvaged.
There are a number of these mend
ing parlors, as they are sometimes
called here in the city and from what
we observe they are doing thriving
business! All types of linen and
wearing apparel may be seen on every
side either in the process of being
mended. being received or sent home
again good as new! Lovely damask
and lace that has either been torn
or burnt can be rewoven with such
skill that the damaged place could
never be distinguished. The reweav-
ing is done only by experts and only
the finest of materials are used. If
it is a damask cloth that is to be
mended, damask strands are used
if the piece happens to be linen, the
same texture of linen is carefully Sc
lected for the mending or reweaving.

MRs. E. B. c.: If your skin is at

lipstick fairly light, bright shade.
Avoid the dark shades with blush
cast, also the orangy type rouges. Your
powder should have a rose under

has to be soft shade, as a deep pink
will be too obvious. A soft, pink peach
should be very lattering. If you use
eye makeup, apply it ever so lightly,
particularly mascara, as heavy coat

you an almost ghostly look. Avoid
mustardy shades of gold, yellow or

ing backward You don't even know
whether you need glasses. My advice
would be, see an eye specialist first.
He may find that your vision is not
defective; that rest or little treat
ment will relieve the symptoms of
strain. If he advises glasses he will
give you a prescription for the lenses.
Go to reputable optometrist. Pro-
gressive optometrists are now includ-
ing the style element with the utility
element. Glasses now fit the face as
well as help the eyes. If you find you
do have to wear glasses, let me assure
you they will not ruin your appear

look more distinguished with glasses
than without.
