HOLOCN fragrant as the
" honeysuckle along Mount Yer
non boulevard, is yours in the
smart crystal bottle sketched
above. It's remarkable how well
the perfume of the flowers has
been captured. It's so lovely that
every person who gets near the
bottle is instantly aware Of it.
The way Europeans use eau de
cologne is to rub it on after the
bath, and it blends with the body
fragrance to make your whole
person Subtly and delicately
scented. This particular bottle
comes with three fragrances Of
eau de cologne, honeySuckle, gar
denia, and mimsy, which is said
to be the truest lilac of spring.
It is 81 and you really must smell
it to appreciate it.

We believe this modeSty is com"
mendable in some cases, but it
should never be carried to the
point of causing one to feel de-
pressed and inferior in any way.
Nearly all the defects we find in
ourselves can be corrected, and we
may be sure they seem far worse
to us than to any one else.
The nose, it seems, comes in for
more censure than any other fea-
ture. It may be too short and
retrousSe or too long or wide with
a prominent, autocratic mien, but
whatever the defect-there is al
ways a makeup to correct it.
We cannot change the actual
size or shape of the nose except by
plastic surgery, but we can make
the defects inconSpicuouS.
The first rule to bear in mind is
that make-up-either the founda-
ton or powder-in a light shade
will make the features more con-
spicuouS, and darker makeup
tends to detract from size.
Avoid severe hair styles and
mannish clothes when the nose is
prominent. The ingenue styles
will not do for this type. but
there is a suitable happy medium
such as a Soft-waved hairdresS
with flattering finish of delicate
ringlets about the ears and tenn

USE TACT

Dear Miss Fairfax:
"She's the right girl all right,
but I'm afraid my mother won't
realize it in the beginning. We've
become engaged, and she is go
ing to spend her vacation at
our home.
Mother is that almost extinct
product "a lady" not that she
isn't a good sport and hasn't
plenty of humOr, but 1 am
afraid the rather boisterOus ways
of my fiancee may crate her at
first.
my girl deserves great credit
for all she has accomplished, and
know that in time she will
pass muster anywhere. But
sometimes she makes pretty bad
slips in grammar, has never
read any of the books everyone
is supposed to have read, and
as 1 said, is rather noisy.
I'VE expect to go to mothers
about the first of August. Do
you think 1 could tell her these
things without hurting her feel
ings? HENRY"
Tact, my dear Henry, will al
most move mountains. Why not
suggest to the girl friend that
you're a little rusty on your read
ing and get from the public IL
brary some abridged volumes Of
the books you think she should
know? A good many Of our classics
can be seen in the movies, and I'll
admit that during the hot weather
it's an easier way to absorb them
than to read even epitomized edi-
tionS.

Success Story

THERE'S the story of a man
II in Washington whom you
may know-but then again you
may not, so the story is well
worth telling. He's a beauty
expert, and expert in all lines.
He was discovered in Australia
13 years ago by Mary Pickford,
who brought him to Hollywood
to take care of her looks. She
liked him first for his skill with
the hair, but later learned that
he was just as good in taking
care of compilations and fig
ures.
Among the many people
whose compilations and hair
this remarkable man has cared
for are Jean Harlow, Clara
Bow, Ginger Rogers and Joan
Crawford. He gave the late
Marie Dressler no less than IA
permanents. He also styled
Ginger Rogers hair for "Ro-
berta," and has various other
triumphs to his credit. He
knows as much about makeup
as he does about hair, and If
you are looking for a complete
change Of countenance, he can
do it for you, and all the
change will be to the good. He
has been in Washington now
for three years, and is fast
building up as much reputa-
ton here as he had in Holly
wood.

HERE'S a hat that will really
IL stay on. 1t looks just like the
Basque Beret, but has the added
feature of really being a hat, COM
plete with sweat band. It's ex-
tremely light weight, fits the head
perfectly, and is fast becoming a
favorite for rumble seat riding,
golf, tennis, sailing and other
sports where you'd have to hold
hat. You can just roll it into a
small space, or stuff it into your
pocket, when it's not needed. 1t
comes in white, navy, tan, brown,
or black, and is $1.65.

BIRTHDAY PARTY
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:


Il will be 10 years of age very
soon, and 1 am planning to have
party . a real social affair, from
4 until 6 o'clock, and will invite
many of my friends.
II would like you to tell me
what to say when congratulated,
and how should 1 thank for the
presents, if I should receive any.
What should / say when my
guests leave? "READER."
May I send you my best wishes,
too, and my heartiest good wishes
for your happiness on your birth
day, and for all the fine years to
come? I am so happy that you
are planning to have this party,
and I am sure that your friends
are delighted at the opportunity
of coming to greet you on this day.
When a guest gives you your
present, it would be nice for you
to say, "How very kind Of you E.
and thank you so much" Then,

in bad English. Question what she

quest for the correct form, and if
she is sensible, she won't be Of

BRIDES COSTUME

II would like to know If it

LOVeIOrn
Has No Luck
In Love
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Written Exclusively for The
Washington Times


Washington Times
Dear Miss Fairfax:
81 have been best man three
times at weddings, and an usher
more times than 1 could count.
Still I'm a bachelor, and an un-
willing one. am beginning to
wonder if the superstition three
times a bridesmaid but never a
bride" holds good in my case.
"AlI the girls seem to like me,
and tell me about their love af-
fairs with other fellows.
"I've been in love several times,
but am always turned down for
someone who seems more "gOOfy"
than 1 am. The children Of my
friends have begun to call me
"uncle," and / have begun to be
WORRIED"
Why not try a few cave-man
tactics? You've probably been too
gentle and considerate with these
damsels, and the "goofy" gentle
men, who have taken a highland
with them, have walked away with
them and asked you to be best
man. There must be some left
over in women from the good old
cave days, which makes them like
to be boSSed. But boSsing, like the
bitter almond extract in the cream
puff, must be used Sparingly.

pleS-to balance the prominent
feature. The neckline is never
severe, but with a soft wave or
curled outline.
The short, snub nose with a too
prominent upper lip may be given
distinction by applying shadow
to both sides. A green eye shadow
is preferred for this. It must be
the very lightest touch extending
along the sides from just below
the bridge of the nose to the
nostrils. Then the powder is ap-
plied-lighter powder over the
nose. Extend the rouge as high
as possible on the upper lip and
it will seem shorter.
Large noses and long faces are
shortened by placing the rouge be-
low the cheek bones and using a
darker powder over the nose and
temples. Blend lighter shade
around the mouth and chin and
avoid the v-neck lines, as they &C
centuate length. High, Swathed
throats balance the large nose

Refreshing New Masque

THERE'S new complexion
l. masque on the market that is
really marvellous. Having used it,
I can speak from experience. It's
about the easiest thing to use,
either at home or in the beauty
parlor, as you first cleanse your
face and neck, then merely brush
it on with a little brush. It's
transparent, so that you can al
most see it work. After it has
dried, which takes about ten min
utes during which time you can
go about your business, you wipe
it off with a damp cloth.
X
THIS masque is alive, makes
i your blood tingle, tightens the
skin. and removes and dead skin
which may have accumulated. 1t
is health-giving, and gives your
face a marvellous pickup. 1t will
look better for days. During the
first few minutes it is on you'll
have a delightful tingling Sensa-
ton. The blood is being called
into action. When it is wiped
away, you apply your makeup, to
the smoothest, fairest skin you've
ever had. Best of all, the effects
last. You can either have it ap-
piled at a beauty parlor, or buy
a bottle and use it yourself. In
spite Of the fact that it is made
by one of the better firms, a gen.
erous bottle is only 81.

GREEN'S MILLIONS
ROUSE 3 STATES
Inheritance Tax Fights Are
Probable as Will Validity
UndergoeS Study.
Nv the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, August 8-Three
States appeared ready today TO con-
| test for inheritance taxes from the
estimated $50 100000 estate of Col.
Edward H. R. Green as disposition Of
his vast fortune seemed to hinge on
validity of his pre-nuptial will made
| in 1908.
Tax authorities of New York, Texas
and Massachusetts,, where Col. Green
lived and owned property. were re-
ported preparing claims to inheritance
levies. He also held property in
Florida.
His estate. partly inherited from
his mother. Hetty Green. and amaSsed
principally through railroad earnings
would go to his sister. Mrs Matthew
Astor Wilks of New York, under the
1908 will filed in Surrogate's Court at
Port Henry, N. Y.
Widow Not Provided For.
The document made no provision
for his widow, Mrs. Mabel H. Green.
whom Col. Green married In 1917. At
that time the inancier announced he
had given his bride $500.D00 in cash
and s125, 600 in Liberty bonds as
wedding present.
Hetty Green, ranked among the
worlds richest women when she died
in 1916, was made sole beneficiary of
her son under the 1908 will, drawn in
Texas.
There was an additional provision,
however:
80 Should she not be living
at the time of my death. then I give,
bequeath and devise all my estate,
both real and personal, to my sister,
Hetty Sylvia A. H. Green of Bellows
| Walls, Vt"
Offered for Probate.
The sister, now Mrs. Wilks, offered
the will for probate after Col. Green's
widow. on the theory that her hus-
band had died inteState. had applied
for letters of administration in Kauf-
man, Tex.
Texas lawyers offered the opinion
yesterday that the document would
be valid there, except that the widow
would be entitled to share in all prop
erty acquired after marriage.
Deputy Tax Collector William E.
Stephens of New York State said he
believed New York had the best claim
to inheritance taxes.
Massachusetts attorneys, where Mrs.
Green lives at Round Hill, said a pre-
nuptial will was void in that State
unless it was made in contemplation
of marriage.
The will will come up for formal
probating at Port Henry September
8, and both Mrs. Wilks and Mrs. Green
would have to be present.
