When you compare yourself
with others, are you perfectly
thrilled with satisfaction over
your smart, well-groomed ap-
pearance, or does it depress
you to find you lack that some
thing that means chic and
style? You know, there are
girls who are always spending
money for beauty aids and
clothes, but for some reason
they never look well-groomed or
as if they knew now to use
makeup properly. and even with
expensive clothes they are just
mediocre.
When it is so easy to learn the
correct styling for your own in
dividual type, there is really not
much excuse for us to look I'M
fashionable. The trouble with
many girls and women, too, is
they do not believe in them
selves and fail to appreciate
their own good points. Every
one has some special beauty
feature that may mean real
loneliness, if it were only &C
centuated as it should be.
Take, for instance, the girl
with the narrow forehead and
small eyes and brows rather
close or meeting at the nose.
She will find it will improve
her appearance and give her
eyes a new expression to re-
shape the brows, even so little.
They should be plucked back
from the nose to a point just
over the eyeduct. Then when
the brows are outlined take a
sharp eyebrow pencil and make
the outline very lightly so it

Dear Miss Fairfax:


Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm IS years old, and the girl
I love is %. We've been going
steady" for four years, and our
aim is to marry and have a home
Of our own. But marriage Is
out Of the question for years to
come, as I am not earning
enough right now. 1t doesn't
seem fair to her to go along like
this, but when I tell her she's
just wasting her life waiting for
me she laughs and tells me not
to talk silly. What shall I do
about this? ALEX.
If your girl knows how things
are with you, and still insists
on waiting till you're in a posi-
ton to marry, well, that relieves
you Of further responsibility. If
she is willing to wait, it's up
to her.
It's not the square thing, how.
ever, for a man to pay devoted
attention to a girl year after
year and never say a thing about
marriage. If girls understand
and want to wait, you-and
other men who have drawn such
faithful prizes-are to be con-
graduated,

SHE'S HESITATING
Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm 20, and have been en-
gagged for several months. When
we first became engaged I really
loved this man, but now I'm
doubtful. He is very jealous and
always tries to tell me where I
should go and what I should do
and think. And when I do some
thing he doesn't like, he just
pouts, instead of telling me
what offended him.
At times I feel it would be
foolish to marry him, and then
I'm afraid I'd be terribly un-
happy without him. He is crazy
about me.
WONDERING.
A jealous lover is often more
jealous after he's married. Jeal-
ousy is a form of fear that is
very hard to cure. AS you real
ize what may be ahead of you,
If you marry this young man,
there's nothing I can add to
what you've told me. Jealous
people sometimes have con-
quered the green-eyed monster,
but it takes character and much
courage.
Why don't you put your fiance
on probation for a certain length
Of time, and see if he can live
down some of these poSsessiVe
qualities? If he cannot, and
at the end of a year or so he
still tells you where you should
go and what you should do, it
might be well to break with him.

find in this man everything

not interest me at all. I am 90
and he is 30. He also does not

I broke up with my boy friend

very jealous, and didn't like to

which I like very much. He
thinks I'm foolish and old

sary to popularity. go out with

ing you to advise me.

You're right, my dear, to see
that marriage with a drinking
young man, and one who
doesn't share your tastes for the
out-of-doors, would be undesir-
able. He would make a very I'M
sympathetic. husband. If you
were my daughter I'd be de-
lighted you had broken with
him. I'm sure the right man is

shredded pepper. Bring to
boil one pint of stock, one pint
Of canned tomatoes and pour
over the oX-tail; season with
salt and pepper and cook until
done, about two to two and one
