So embarrasingl You looked 50 sophisticated and charming to the vacation crowd. Then you got a compliment-and fell all over your self.
 But compliments, like everything else in social life, are just Q matter of etiquette.
 If you receive them with tic ter and LAW, you don't mean that" you betray sad lack of manners.
 But if you smile graciously, say. "You're nice to say so," you snow poise and breeding.
 And how 1t helps to have 6 repu- tation for perfect manners. 1nvi- tations a-plenty for the girl who knows enough not to rise when she's introduced to men; who says good-by to the sponsors at a dance: who to an apology says a quiet, Tt doesn't matter" And so few invi- tations come to girls who don't.
 Know what's expected of you - at dances, dinners, motoring-an occasions. Our 32-page booklet gives tips for girls and men.

Perhaps after this, nerves" be- come the "soul"-because now we get into feelings" the emotions that make or ruin us-love, hate; peace, worry; interest versus monot- ony, and a thousand others.
 Nerve fatigue is a result of men, tai strain. Just what strain, is your problem. Perhaps longings that cannot come true, perhaps monotony that pals, or work that is so dis tasteful you have to fight yourself every day to get at it.
 Relief Must Come From Self
 As result you are tired, oh so tired. And you are very thin and still losing weight. Headaches, poor di- gestion, and even aches and pains in your hands and feet. As genuine are these afflictions as 4 you were carrying ounces of infection in your blood stream.
 You cannot anaIyze yourself. Yet no one can really help you but yourself, because all the words in the world and all the medicine will neither remove your problems nor change your feelings.
 But you can do this. Shut out the thought of tomorrow with all your might, and live on 24 hours today.
 If monotony pals, and half the time in the case of busy women this is the case, you might do a few outrageous things to break the jinx. If it's going to be relief for a day or two, change the whole house around, cook unbelievable things, and get away from a set routine. Routine is excellent and planning is the father of efficiency, but when they get too deadly, take a vaca- ton and let efficiency slide for awhile.
 Make Game of Cure"
 Try, if possible. to get new slant on everything and everybody. Make an effort to cultivate people you dis like. Ask more people to come in When you are talking to others you are not thinking or breeding.
 Can you sing? No? That's fine Then sing. Don't hum, but learn the words to a tune or two you like and let 1t go. Whistle, if it suits you It keeps up courage.
 Don't take yourself too seriously Say, T need to forget it all and laugh more." You might surprise

Are you physically tired, or ner- vously tired, mother? I know better than to say just nervously tired, '' because it implies something spuri- ous, and there is nothing counter felt about the weariness of nerve fatigue.
 But what are nerves? They are many things. it is impossible to answer, for only our Maker knows the truth. They help us to see, hear and move our muscles, of course and to sense heat, cold, pleasant ness and unpleasantness. If this were all, the definition would be easily settled, but alas, 1t is moi even the beginning.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Blood Count


 What is meant by low blood count? What causes it? How can it be corrected? (Mrs. M. D.
 Answer-In health the blood con- tains approximately five million red corpuscles, seven thousand white corpuscles in the cubic millimeter. In anemia from any cause the num- Der of red corpuscles is decreased. The cause and correction of low blood count are questions for your physician to answer-no one else can.

Modern Menus

This arrangement can be made more elaborate and successful" looking by a garnish of cooked caulifover buds, peas, julienne carrots and other seasonal vege- tables. Arrange them on the plank about 10 minutes before serving and let them get hot and slightly sun tanned in the oven first. Now that's all there is to this mystic rite of planked steak.

 GlorUing

 If you have an oval face, keep your hairdress, simple" says a fam ous Hollywood makeup expert. Don't part 1t too low or draw it back tightly from the forehead and face or wear bangs or dips. And if you have 8 widows peak, by no means hide it."
 Then, still addressing those with oval faces, the authority goes on to say that eyebrows should not be plucked or shaved and penciled in. Rouge should go in a modified triangle (not @ circle) which fol- lows the oval contour of the cheeks and be carried up lightly under the eye. Eschew cupid's bow lips. Make your lips up full and natural-not too bright.
 If you have a round face" the man who makes up the stars con- tinues, don't wear bangs and don't slick the hair back harshly, and the fullness should be above the ears, tapering down behind the jaw line. Wear soft, large waves, with the jaw line. Wear soft, large waves, with the forehead as clear as pos sible.
 Don't use a light face powder because it reflects light and makes the face seem even rounder. Make your mouth up delicately, but as wide as possible, since width in the lips will reduce the distance to the edge of the cheeks and make them appear more nearly oval"
 The woman with an oblong face is urged to dress her hair sofetly and loosely, with fullness down near the chin. She never should wear a coiffure which is high on top of parted in the middle. Her

Next to their families, most men love steak best. And to the am- bilious, a planked steak is the sign Of worldly success.
 Through some sort of whispering campaign against the domestic cook, chefs have circulated the canard that only at highly praised res- taurants or hotels can a man be served a planked steak. That's simply masculine nonsense. And whats more, the modest housewife need not have an oak plank to per- form this culinary rite with success. She can well use a glass or crock

NOW SEE HERE WHAT DID
 I TELL YOU


 Please do not advise elderly peo- ple, at least, to regard the act of elimination in the casual way you here hretofore, admonishes one of my correspondents. It seems an elderly person succtlmbed while straining, and the doctors verdict was that the effort of straining had caused death, since the elderly per- son had had weak heart.
 There are several words in this admonition which [ don't like. First, I. take exception to the use of the term elimination" in that way. It is not elimination, nor excretion, but defecation. Even Dr. Webster who is always flexible in definition does not attempt to substitute these words for defecation. Then, al- though manifestly not squeamish, I cringe 8 bit at the use of the term verdict" when it is perfectly clear that the correspondent means mere- ly conjecture or Surmise.
 Finally, I object to the implica- ton that I advise straining. On the contrary my advice is never to strain or fuss about the movement of the bowl. Let it alone. Pay no attention to it, except to answer the call when it comes or when you can conveniently do SO. If the call doesn't come on schedule, no mat ter. Let it go.
 Let 1t go how long? Never mind. Do you intend to follow my advice or that of some quack whose mo- tions are more to your liking?
 don't care how badly you have disarranged things with your infer nal interference. Let 1t alone, for- get 1t, put your mind on other things and nature will resume control just as soon as you let go for good.
 The great trouble with you wise- acres is that you think you know more than I do about physiology and pathology. If you feel that way, all right. Go on. It is nothing to my

siOners, none of these ten knows yet

incidentally, the House and Senate
Roads Committees tried for three
months to work out districts that
it up and passed the buck to the new
commissioners For the law as final

shall divide the State up into ten high
way districts.
1--WE are going to stay in session

said today. For until we get these
districts set the various commission
ers cannot make a move or do any,

tire commission are tied until we get
the State districted. The determina-

expected to prove so difficult, however
since both Governor Hoey and Chair

raj different sets of maps for some

divided into ten districts, but with
some variations. 1t is now generally
agreed that the matter has boiled
down to one of three different maps,
that an effort will be made to lay out
the districts along geographical lines
rather than political and to keep
them as nearly the same size as pos
