But she could not go without some ges- ture of farewell, so she went next afternoon-her statement that she had expected Dane for tea was purest fiction--to the Dakin home on Beacon Hill. When Childers an- swered her ring, she asked pleas antly:
 "Childers, Is Mrs. Dakin in?"
 "No, madame" said Childers cor- rectly. But pr. Dakin is here."
 T wonder If I might see him." Kay proposed; and Childers with a word of assent showed her into the living-room.
 She waited composedly enough; but when pr. Dakin presently ape peared, Kay had a momentary hesi- tation. His eyes were twinkling with pleasure at sight of her, and his handicap was warm.

 Kay smiled; but she came direct ly to the point. You've both been so good to me-" she explained. T wanted you to know what I've de- cided to do."
 His eyes sobered; and for mo- ment he did not speak. Then he nodded gravely. What is it?" he asked.
 And Kay tried to tell him. T don't need togo back to the be- ginning she confessed. "Only-- you remember we decided to wait while before doing anything. Bob agreed to wait in order to protect me from gossip! She hesitated, and Bob's father nodded in a quiet assent.
 "So while we were waiting. I tried to--earn my keey." Kay explained. with that little twisted smile again "And we got along all right; but now something has happened ."

two monthS-and it seems like
two years-and evidently dieting
agrees with you and builds you up.
1 know exactly how you feel,
but cheer up! This gain is only
temporary. This is the zero hour
in your reducing program, and
you must see it through.
You see, Reducers. now that you
have been careful of your calories
for a month or more, you will no
longer get the surprising results
that you did in the beginning. OF
course, a calorie slash when you
nave overeaten for years amazes
you with its results.
However, as soon as the soft.
easy.to-lose fat has been lost. your
progress will be slower. Now you
must go after this solid layer Of
fat for all your figure is worth.
You may not lose this week. In
fact, you may inadvertently pick
up a pound or two. But. if you
have the patience to hold IN dur
ing this standstill period, you
lose again.
During this intermediate period.
you must refuse to be pset with
the apparent slowness of your
weight loss. Right now. even
though you do not lose. you are
making progress by holding your
own. You must learn a new set
of values in your weight program
A consistent loss of one-fourth
pound per week at this time is
equal to a two-pound per week loss
in the beginning of your program.
This waiting-to-lose test is the
severest in your entire figure

enthusiasm is first aid to the

reduce.

After a winter that has made
weather history, most of us find
that our skin needs a spring tonic.
Whether your skin is oily, dry or
normal. the winds have not bene-
fitted it the least bit.
Many women imagine their
skin is too oily, when it Is not.
How can you tell when a skin is
too oily? Just press a piece of
tissue paper against it, and if
there is too much oil it will show
on the paper.
The oily skin suffers most from
blackheads. which call for an
energetic cleanup campaign. Use
a good cleansing cream and re-
move it quickly with paper tissue.
Gently press out the more stub
born blackheadS. and finish with
an astringent or cold water. Or
if a cream is too oily, try cleansing
with a liquid cleaner. But rely
on that ole standby, soap and
water, for cleansing once a day.
Then there's the dry7Skinned sis

practically every case, she, too,
should use soap and water once

You were warned TO expect a
lull in your figure program, but
you didn't expect to gain! Here
you've been on a strict regime for
The Washington times., 1936-03-03

further calorie cut. Deduct 200
calories from your days menu.
For example. if you have been
following the 1,200calorie menu,
drop down to 1000 calories for
the next day or so. This may
be all that is necessary to start
the scales down. At any rate, it
will forestall the tendency to
gain at this time.
The following foods are abso-
lutely taboo during this in-be-
tween period: Pastries, fried
foods, rich gravies, cream sauce,
mayonnaiSe, olive oil, French
dressing, cheese, nuts, candy,
dates, raisins, figs, prunes, honey,
jelly, whipped cream. desserts,
fat meats. fat fish, and all alco-
holic beverages.
Dieting comes easy with the
reward of lost pounds, but the
monotony of days of subtracting
calorieS and adding exercise-and
not pound to show for it all
is pretty diScouraging.
Make Blue Tuesday a red-letter
day in your figure program! Be
lieve that If you have lost 10
pounds you can lose 30-and
know that the woman with a
beautiful figure may have begun
her success at this exact point,
where the less courageous resign
themselves to failure.
