Latest Styles
GlmNing Yourself
By Alicia Hart

Just as your home needs extra special cleaning, new paint and thorough going-over at this time of year, so do your skin, hair. general appearance. It's a season to in- dulge in more warm, foany baths, to use nail, bath and hair brushes more regularly, to lose weight you took on during the winter, to fill the cosmetic cabinet with new beau- ty preparations and your mind with resolutions to make yourself more spring cleaning. Especially for those of you who do not get an oc- casional professional facial, this is all important. You might begin with a night routine which removes dead and dry surface cuticle, tones LID the skin generally.
 Wash face and throat with soap and warm water, rinse well. While skin still is moist, apply thin film of cleaning cream from hair line to base of the throat, behind ears and on the back of the neck, too. Let it remain on while you squeeze the juice from a fresh lee mon and strain 1t twice.
 Now remove most of the cream with cleansing tissues. Do not try to take all of 1t off. Dip fingers in the lemon juice and pat it on over the creamy film. As the juice begins to dry, you begin to massage up and out, over and over until you feel small balls of dry cuticle roll up under your fingers and fall off. Keep on rubbing and applying lemon juice until the little balls no longer form and your face is smoother looking though slightly red. If you have dry skin, smooth on bit of night cream before you go to bed.
 Gives Fresh Start
 For Daily Routine
 The lemon cleansing cream mas- sage treatment is fine start to- ward skin cleanliness and health. Thereafter, stick to the three steps specialists prescribe-proper clean sing, toning, softening-night and morning.
 Learn to think of your bath as a beauty routine to be enjoyed in- stead of a daily duty and you'll be further along on the royal road to loveliness. Showers are fine and dandy and no one is questioning the fact that a bath under the shower takes less time than one in the tub, or saying that Q shower addict isn't always immediately clean. However, for the kind of soaking which prevents callouses on heels and knees and for the feeling of being pampered and spoiled and quite glamorous, nothing takes the place of a tub bath.
 For the spring cleaning weeks, at least, indulge in a huge bath size cake of your favorite soap even if you have to go without luncheon dessert for several days to get it. A few drops of sweetly scented bath oil, poured into the tub while the water is running full tilt, will perfume the room as well as the water, and make you feel simply wonderful. Use a long-handled bath brush to clean back and shoulders, get rid of dry casicle and to stimulate circulation. Finish your bath with . cologne rub-down and see if you don't feel like new womanl

Household Hints
Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

But, Ted, you look wonderful in the suit. It isn't purple at all. It's the touch of blue that their most expensive boys suits had, and did hope you'd like it, for once"
 Ted looked at himself in the mir TOT. Tt is purple. I don't care what the man said. feel like a monkey in it."
 Well, then" sighed his mother. i've won't keep it. You'll have to get out early and go to town with me tomorrow. I declare I can't get you to wear one blessed thing that's a bit different"
 Ted took of the offending gar- ments and got into his tan sweat CT and brown pants. His mother remembered similar struggle to get him to wear brown, but he wore it contentedly enough when he discovered that his crony, Art Smith had new brown suit, too.
 Ted would not wear first any thing that came in style. He al- ways had to see somebody else with it on. It was the history of almost everything she had ever bought for him.
 Opening Eyes to Novely
 The next day they took back the purple" suit, which was not purple at all, but merely a blue gray with a bluer stripe, and bought instead a conventional gray.
 On Sunday Art came ill, in his new spring clothes, and there, 10 and behold was the very same suit they had returned, or it's twin.
 T wish I'd kept that suit" said Ted later. Tt looks swell on Art. Why didn't you tell me it was all right, mom?"
 "Tell you, you stubborn boy? I did, but you haven't the courage of & mouse. You won't start anything, You like to follow other people"
 Well, I don't like being queer. I hate to be laughed at. That's why"
 Art doesn't feel that way. He thinks just because he wears things, that makes 1t all right. He feels that way about lot of things. For instance, he said he'd be drum mer in the orchestra, when four of you boys turned it down. Now you're all jealous of him, because he's made it the best thing you've got. You said you wouldn't have little dog, too, because boys ought to have great big dogs. So your father got you Hector. Then Art rescued that little terrier. and suddenly you took such a notion for terrior we had to buy you Toto"
 Needs Confidence
 Ted said nothing. He knew it was all true.
 T don't expect you to be a leader or think you can't make mistake" /" went on his mother, but, Ted, I do wish you had a mind of your own and could hold your chin up. Are you always going to be a follower, and a second rater, waiting for someone else to do things first?"
 No, I'm not" fiared Ted. Next time I'll buy a green suit. or any old thing, and make 'em like it. I guess I've been kind of funny, have nt IF"
 Ills mother smiled encouragingly. She knew this sudden burst of courage would not last, but now his eyes were open, the boy might dis cover some latent confidence in himself that would grow into a real power. She hoped so, anyway.
 It is. of course, inferiority. h. feriority can never be entirely cured but sometimes an object lesson like this will open a youths eyes to the thing he has to fight and that no one else can fight for him.

IS IT NERVES OR BRAIN?

IS IT NERVES OK BRAIN!
 Adrenin, secreted into the blood by the adrenal glands under the in- fiuence of the fighting emotions, mobilizes or liberates sugar from the liver into the blood stream, where 1t is available for instant use as fuel for muscular energy used in combat or in flight.
 Civilized man learns to repress or restrain the natural impulse to fight or run away, but only as veneer of culture. Dissolve the veneer with alcohol and you will find 1t is extremely thin. The automatic or autonomic or unconscious part of man, al lof his vital organs and a preponderant part of his nervous system and his vital functions, are still primitive, apparently not changed or even slightly modified by centuries of civilization and cul- ture. Education and training, breed- ing, courtesy, refinement, religion, morality, patriotism and other em- bellishments tend to restrain all natural or primitive impulses or rtaher to prevent natural express sion of the emotions. The charming hostess smiles at you even though she would like to bite your ear of or scratch your eyes out. The busi- ness tycoon brides himself on his ability to mask his true feelings in his dealings with others. This sort of dissembling in highbrow, whereas everybody knows 1t is lowbrow to betray your true feelings and es- pecially to express your emotions.
 Highbrows are generally short lived. Lowbrows live long = If they escape the sudden, violent death which is the natural fate of wild animals.
 Culture, breeding and refinement got in some hard blows against longevity when it imposed upon society the conspiracy of silence which has only recently been broken.
 A man who had just retired from active business life to attempt the impossible, that is. he hoped to catch up on play now that he had time for it, turned up his toes the other day, passed in his checks, apoplexy. For several years the poor gink, with characteristic Yam kee complacency, had been fooling with his high blood pressure and complaining that this doctor had told him so and so and that doctor had told him something else and so he doubted that doctors know much about 1t and anyway they didn't seem to understand his case Gas well as he thought he under stood it). It was his nerves, he wal certain. His nerves were weak. Anc so he died. Apoplexy, the deatf certificate read. Brain weakness would be an honest diagnosis.

A small percentage of children are born with hearts which are not quite normal and which, there fore, may cause some difficulty i'm mediately after birth.
 There may be a narrowing ot some of the large blood vessels which leave the heart, defects of the walls of the heart, or other dis turbances which make it difficult to secure complete and proper circu- lation of the blood.
 The victim of such disability suf- 1ers sooner or later from short ness of breath after slight exer- ton, and occasionally fainting spells, in such cases, the ends of the chfld's fingers seem to be clubbed; that is, broader and flatter than normal, and he usually has a blue appearance.
 Since children with congenitally defective hearts cannot indulge in normal activities, and, furthermore, sometimes have insufficient muscle in their tissue, they may seem below normal in growth and development.
 There is not much that can be done in such cases, except to make certain that the child avoids ex- ercise and never gets so active that he has more than a moderate shortness of breath.
 Such children should be allowed 10 lead the lives of normal young sters as much as possible. They must, however, be given a consider able amount of care to make cer- tain that they avoid serious nfec- ton. n

Art is lovely but SO is veal chop with paprika sauce. The Phdadel- phia orchestra is now on its second annual transcontinental tour taking fine music throughout the land. One hundreds men and four women comprise the group of notable mu- sicians. So do lamb la Manchega and mushrooms Bordelaise and steak, French fried potatoes, ap- pie pie and perfect coffee. The or- chestra fiddles by day, eats by night in it's special train, for several of the men are glorious cooks. They often go into the Pullman kitchen and out come things like these.
 Veal Chops With Paprika Sauce
 Composed by Eugene Ormandy of the Philadelphia Orchestral
 One veal chop per serving, ? slices bacon to each chop, and for the sauce for 4 chops, 1 cup sour cream, tablespoon paprika, salt to taste.
 Fry bacon in tiny piece of but ter, melted. Remove and keep warm. Fry chops in bacon fat to golden brown on both sides. Add a little water and simmer until as tender as a lullaby. Season with salt and paprika. Add cream gradually, stir ring until sauce thickens. To serve arrange mound of perfectly steamed rice in center of dish. Lay slices of bacon over the rice and arrange chops around it. Pour the paprika cream sauce over the chops. Then tune up the appetite.
 Jose Iturbi may be a. famous guest conductor to his audiences, but to the musician chefs of the company he is the man who likes his lamb a certain way. And this is how:
 Lamb Ia Manchega A Servings)
 Two pounds neck or shoulder of lamb, 2 whole pimentos. clove gar- lie, butter, 1-2 cup white wine, 1 bayleaf, parsley, salt and pepper.
 Place lamb in earthenware cas- serole. Dot with butter, season with salt and pepper and place in the bayleaf. Put in fairly hot oven and OIOWh, UutibiB ONNdOAOAAaliys EAANA wine and reduce fire and simmer meat until tender, basting frequent ly. Slice the pimentos, cut garlic in- to fine pieces and chop the parsley Fry in butter, then pour over these ingredients all the liquor in the casserole, removing the bay leaf Simmer few minutes, then pour back over the lamb. Cook few minutes more and serve from the casserole.
 Those are two of their favorAte dishes. But the Philadelphia Or chestra proves itself to have a tenn peramental appetite. These they re- fuse to eat en route-carrots, tapi- oca, eels, cucumbers, pork chops liver, turnips and avacado salads with cabbage as their pet hate. Beef steak, thick, very thick, makes their eyes dance and their souls fill with wondrous harmony.

If Youngster Has Bluish Color, He May
 Have a Defective Heart

throw an extra burden on the heart, and, if the heart is congenitally de- fective, it will not be able to bear up under the strain.
 Tuberculosis, for example, is a constant threat because of It's wide prevalence among the pub lie generally. Certainly a child with defective heart should be kept away from anyone with seri- ous infectious disease, a chronic sore throat, or active tuberculosis.
 It should be borne in mind that no type of operation can take care of a structural defect in the heart. The only hope lies in suitable con trol of the childs activities.
 Overexercise ordinarily will not injure a normal heart, because resulting unconsciousness will stop the overexertion. If, however, a heart is seriously damaged, over exercise or overexertion may lead to an exceedingly serious, If not fatal, result.
 When the heart Is overworked, as occurs, for example, in marathon running, it may be forced to pump so fast and so hard that the tissues stretch. This Is called an acute dilation. Naturally, stretching of the heart may disturb the valve action or otherwise damage the heart ser iously.
 AS will be pointed out later in this series, the tissues of young people have reasonable possibilities of re- covery when they are damaged, pro- vided there is sufficient rest and sufficient time iS allowed for con- valcScence. The tissues Of older people do not, however, recover nearly 50 well or so completely.
