far more radiant than other methods.
Unlike soap in many dentifrices,
IRIUM does not encourage deposits of
film and tartar. That's why teeth look
whittier, feel clean so much longer after
using Pepsodent Powder containing
IRIUM.
Teeth sparkle as they never did with
old fashioned, laborious methods. Yet
Pepsodent Powder containing IRIUM is
DoUBLY SAFE, because it contains NO
GRIT, NO PUMICE. DoUBLY PLEASANT
because it contains NO CHALK, NO SOAP.

 A chronic tired look is some" thing no executive likes to see on the face of his secretary or that any husband, however loving, will thrill to when he gets home from @ difficult day at the office. If you are to be successful in your chosen work, whether 1t Is done be- hind desk or in your home, make 1t part of your business to see that you very seldom look too dragged down, too tired to laugh even Q little.
 "But it's too difficult to appear fresh and smiling when one Is so very tired" you say.
 Difficult-yes-but not TOO dif- ficult. Nothing which means help in keeping your job or holding your husbands love and interest can be too difficult to try at least.
 "As years roll on, ones out- ward appearance should receive more care" says an expert who does her part to keep her cus- toners young and lovely Flair face, neck, arms and hands de- serve the utmost attention The woman who pays enough - not too much - attention to simple beauty routines, tries to develop greater boise, tolerance and charm and keeps her sense of hu- nor, will grow old gracefully.
 If the idea that cosmetics play an important part in keeping you young seems flippant make this test:
 Leave off all makeup when you get up tomorrow morning, comb your hair as quickly as possible, wear & slightly soiled dress. At noon, look at yourself In mir TOT. How do you feel2
 Now take a bath, or at least wash face, hands, arms and neck, then put on makeup as skillfully as you can and change to a fresh- CT dress. Brush your hair and comb 1t carefully.
 Look in the mirror again. Walk about the room. You are more attractive looking of course. But don't you also feel like a new woman? Say what you will, keep ing well groomed and clean really makes a great difference in your mental attitude as well as your ap. pearance.

DOG SEEKS CAT

Perhaps this elongated hound dog looks so dejected because he can't find the calico cat, but more likely his woebegone expression is occas- toned by the fact that as yet he has no little master or mistress to play with him.

handsome man hasn't e chance against conceit. Every woman he meets sets out to please him. Any girl who has even the most cas- ual acquaintance with him man. ages to make the association seem personal. He is flattered, spoiled and openly admired.
 Very early in life the handsome man learns that he need not exert himself to be a pleasant, entertain ing companion. With a profile like his even a grouch Is becoming. What 1. the use of his going out of his way to please women when he knows that women are pleased with so lit- tie? r
 Such a man will always be more interested in his own necktie. than in his wife's newest dress. And his wife, poor wretch, will have to spend lifetime thinking up ways to flat ter him. How else can she compete with world of admiring women?
 The very handsome man is less likely to work hard at his job than his brother to whom nature was less generous because he already has one kind of distinction.
 Unfortunately women are jeal- ous creatures. whether they are able to conceal the passion or not. The more handsome man happens to be, the more sure his wife is that every woman in the world, young and old, married and unmarried, would like to have her prize. Why then should woman, knowing this is so, decide to worry her life away over a collar-ad of a husband?
 How much more serene her life would be if she married a man who was not so exciting to look at but who had developed an amusing per- sonality as a substitute for a Rob- ert Taylor-made face and custom built shoulders. Such a man would not be too preoccupied with his own attractiveness to notice when she started parting her hair in the mid- dle.
 How blessed is the woman who has only ordinary competition--whc knows that Tom is tops" but IS equalls certain tslat eSsry woman he meets is not immediately aware of the fact.

Paris Style Chats

United Press stan COrrespOndent)
 Paris (UP)-"Elaborate simplicity" Is the keynote for sinartness in day- time dresses as shown at Paris fashion collections for winter for while unnecessary decoration Is done away with and the effect Is one of beauty unadorned, there Is more detail than in many Q season.
 Blouses are tucked to accent the bustline, necklines are subtly drap- ed, and informal cports frocks as well as afternoon costumes are made with carefully .cut yolkes to give Extinction of line. Matching braid is made to mark out intricate de- signs unobtrusively on blouses Sleeves are cut to become an in1- portant part of the dress. Even coats have succumbed to the interest in detail and pockets, revers and shoulders are made interesting through the individuality of design.
 Chanel uses a double belt across the front of red jersey daytime dress. Simple in design, the frock is made with 8 low, square . cut neckline and yoke of white pipque Nodded basques are outstanding in the collection for dark jersey froclks, and touches of white, effectively

When a pair of these all black guinea-pigs mate three-fourths of their offspring will be black and one-fourth will be white, just as white as the white grandparent was.
