AFTER several months of trying
"A out, personally, some new de-
odorantS, it is a pleasure at last
to find one that works beauti-
fully. It is a liquid, for easy ap-
plication, and is packed in an
attractive cream-colored bottle.
When used as recommended, gen

From the symptoms stated, she
may be doing a little worshiping
on her own account. Sometimes
girls, and boys, too, act this way
when they're interested and so

Week End Pcnckers Welcome Change In Usual Outing Lunch
|m<&~,

New for the Hands

NSW 4UE Tile 0Au0S
TN these days of keeping the
l. nails oiled as faithfully as
you cream the face, the new
oily cuticle remover just per-
fected by the largest manufac-
turer of manicure products, is
an important aid in achieving
lovely hands.
NEXT to keeping polish
IN fresh and bright, trim,
well-kept cuticle is the first
rule for attractive hands. If
you have been using scissors,
make a resolution to swear off
for two weeks, and at the end
of that time, you'll find you
won't be tempted to go back to
them. Cutting thickens and
hardens the cuticle, with the
result that it becomes more
stubborn, forming a thick, ugly
ridge around the base of the
nail. Remember, too, that
steel instruments, particularly
where there are hangnails, may
cause infection; soreness or
pain far below the visible edge
of the nail may result from an
Infection starting at the sides
or tip Of the nail.
THO apply oily cuticle re-
u mover, wrap a piece of cot
ton around the end Of an
orange stick and moisten it
with the fluid. Work the re-
mover gently about the sides
and base of the nail. This
softens and loosens the old life
less cuticle, which frequently
overlaps the nail. Wash the
hands In warm water and wipe
away the loosened particles
with a towel. Repeat faith
fully every day until the half
moon is exposed to its fullest.
DON'T expect it to take the
~ place of regular treat
ments with cuticle oil, how
ever. Ordinary nails require
an application of cuticle oil,
massaged well into the nail
and fingertip once a week, and
dry nails require it oftener.
Use the oil after, rather than
before, applying polish: Priced

Dear Miss Fairfax:

children to have a home, and
someone to take their fathers
place-that's where 1 made my
mistake.
81 don't know whether my huS.
band was jealous of my love for
my children or not, but he treats
them with the utmost severity,
making them eat everything on
their plates. never leaving the
smallest Of their belongings

I do mot know how this is going

Imagination, but all my friends
have noticed how he behaves.
Even his own mother has spoken
to him about it, and has said in
my presence: Please don't be

"He is absolutely devoted to me,
and ! think it must be a case of:
jealousy. The other night he
caught me with some old short
hand notebooks and asked what I
was doing. I said very plainly:
"T'm brushing up on my short.

children any better, intend to
go back and take a job, and quit
you.
"Since then he has been behav.
ing better. Still, l catch him glar.
ing at my poor little ones, and
they're afraid to speak when he's
around.

It's not unlikely that brushing
up your shorthand may bring
your husband to a realization Of
the fact that you do not intend to
have your children shouted at,
and otherwise badly treated.
There is no reason why you should
stand these things when you are
capable for providing for them.

than most people realize, and the

last the welt of a whip. Here's
hoping this gentleman may re-
