LIKES ATTRACTIVE WIFE

"Dear Miss Fairfax:
"While 1 am no LOthariO, still
1 like a woman who is easy on the
eyes. No one could have more of
the fundamental virtues than my
wife, but she just won't fix her
self up.
whenever I've suggested that
1t might be good thing for her
to go to a beauty parIOr and get
her hair waved, or whatever they
call it, and her complexion tinted,
she has taken to tears and said
that no woman in her family ever
resOrted to such things.
"Why won't she be sensible and
try and get the better of time,
with a few of those little aids to
beauty which make every woman

For the life of me I can't see
why this lady doesn't take her
husbands advice, rush to the
beauty parlor and see what they
can do for her in the way of
knocking off a few years-or
maybe decades.

stayed as nature made her, and

Sometimes IN your column I've
read letters from women who have
been beaten by their husbands.
What do you think of these dog
like wives? Why do they stay?
"SPINSTER SISTER"
I've often wondered why women
stay with men who beat them. and
I suppose it's because they have
not yet worked out of the cave

souls enjoy living with man who
keeps club handy.
I've never forgotten a letter one

Beauty
Practice Right
Posture
BY DONNA GRACE

The quickest and most effective
way of attaining poise is by being
conscious of our posture and cor
recting it if it is at all at fault.
Good posture will make a plain
person very ATTRACTIVE.
Chic clothes and correct car
riage will do more than a pretty
face to give her an air" and
from the standpoint of good
health one must hold the body
so the chest will be high and
round. When the chest is held
in that position, it is almost GER
tain, unless one is deformed, that
the posture will be nearly correct.
The spine must be kept erect,
but never rigid; the head is held
high with a stretched neck; the
knees are straight, without any
easy bending or slouching for
ward. and the abdomen must be
pulled in with a very exaggerated
effort until the position becomes
easy.
It will be much more comfort
able than any other once it be-
comes a habit because the organs
are in the normal position, and
this kind Of breathing means good
circulation, buoyant, graceful car
riage and simple, correct posture.
The following exercises will
help to make this position easy:
Stand erect, feet together,
stretch the neck high. but do not
throw the head back. Hold it
even and in line with the feet,
even though the chest and abdo-
men are large.
Now with the chest high, clasp
your hands behind you and pull
with vigor from the shoulders
down and breathe easily and
deeply Now take one step apart
raise the left hand above the head.
right hand down and twist the
body to the right. Bend from the
waist and touch the right foot
with the left hand. Then up and
raise the right hand high. bend.
touch the left foot. Do these alter
mating exercises 10 times.
Next clasp your hands behind
your head and rotate the body
from the waist line, bending to
the left, to the front, right and
back. Let the head describe a
circle. Do this exercise 10 times.

automobiles and trains. They,
too, must have their cosmetics
along. And how about those of us
who run over to Baltimore or up
to Philadelphia for football
game? Aren't we to be considered?
Most certainly! So today we show
a case that is suitable for travel
of all sorts. It is compact, which
is it's chief virtue, and it has
"everything" in it. It's grand
idea to take it along for short
visits or week-ends, as you can
carry all cosmetics and makeup
separate from your travelling bag,
and thus render the danger to
clothing from splitting bottles prac-
tically nil. So much more room in
your bag, too, with jars and bottles
out. This case is of alligator, has
all possible necessities in it, of a
well-known and nationally popular
make, and has really big mirror,
big enough to make up by. The
cosmetics in the case are worth
more than it's price of SIS, not
to mention the grand case itself.
And what a wonderful Christmas
gift it will make!
