THERE'S a rare cream thai
l. has been known for &
long time, but has been out
of the reach of most women
because of its high price. 1t
is called Oils of the Wilder
ness, and is considered an out
standing achievement in the
creation of fine creams. 1t is
put out by a well-known house,
and is a blend of rare and
unusual oils which was OBJ
tanned after years Of research.
Although I've never been for
tunate enough to try it, I've
heard that it transforms the
face that is tired and lined
into something fresh and
lovely. 1t is said to be a
veritable fountain of youth. It
is very smooth and easily alb
sorbed by the skin, so that
the under cells and tissues, as
well as the other surface of
the skin, can be revitalized. It
works in double way, gives
the skin an immediate fresh
ness and bloom, and if you
use it at least every other day,
it will gradually tighten the
muscles of the throat and face.
1t goes deep and acts on the
muscles by working on the
cells and stimulating them to
action. 1t is said to bring
about new vitality and firm
ness, to cause lines and "crepi-
ness" to disappear, and to i'm
prove the texture of the skin
and give back the glow of
youth. There is now an in
troductory jar out for S., and
when this supply is gone, you
can only get it in a $25 size,
so be sure to take advantage
of the S. offer.

HE'S IN LUCK

"Dear Miss Fairfax:
"My home is in a distant State,
and there 1 left a girl to whom 1
was engaged, and expected soon
to marry. She has our engage
ment ring, wedding ring, and
other valuable gifts. Today I
learned she had married a school
teacher, someone with whom 1 am
not even acquainted. Although /
had not heard from her in three
weeks, 1 could hardly believe her
capable of treating me in this
way.
"My employer says the thing to
do is to ask for the return of the
rings and everything else that
will later remind her of me; write
her a cOngratulatOry letter, and
forget. / do not think 1 can do
this. What do you advise?
"DESPONDENT."
To my way of thinking, the
situation does not call for con-
gratulatory letter from you, un-
less you want to show her that
her unfeeling conduct has not
affected you. Under the circum-
stances, I think you might write
a congratulatory letter to your,
self on being free of a woman
VINO proved to be so tickle and
unaccountable. Imagine going
through life with a woman utterly
deficient in a sense of RESPONSE
bility.
She should send back her rings
and valuable presents. Common
decency requires that. If she
doesn't do this of her own volition,
it might be we'll to remind her Of
what is done under such circum-
stances.

SHE'S CONVINCED

"Dear Miss Fairfax:
II, for one, believe absolutely in
Mrs. MichiSOn'S theory that the
State should provide for the mar
riage of young people at II or 18
years of age, and after they have
had their families, educate them
for the professions.
"My own marriage was such,
and it has been entirely successful.

Parental wishes are practically
negligible when it comes to break
ing up love affairs which they con-
slider undesirable for their chill
dren. If parents intervene, it must
be by devious routes of which their
children are unaware.
Inviting the undesirable girl or
boy friend to little party, where
his or her Objectionable traits will
stand out from the rest Of the
group, like the well-known sore
thumb, has been parental strategy
from the beginning.
Often it doesn't work. Today,
youngsters pick their own mates
saying: I'm willing to try any
thing once, and there is always
Reno"
MODERN WAY
But when I got a letter like the
one from which I'm going to quote,
4 begin to see advantages in the
modern way youth has, of taking
the bit in its teeth and boiling.
After all, ones life is ones own,
and the following letter seems to
me a warning to parents who seek
to prevent the marriage of their
children for no other reason than
that both the lovers are poor and
lack worldly advantages.
OLD FLAME
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Doubtless you've heard it said
'an old flame is someone who tells
you how much he once loved you,
after you and he are both safely
married to someone elSe.'
"But sometimes an old flame is
the blueSt of flames. It's like
the clear blue light that burns
within the circle of the yellow.
81 am among those who are
never quite able to see the joke
where very young lovers are ac-
cused of being afflicted with
puppy love- When young love
came into my life I was support,
ing myself by music-pianO, or.
gan and vOice-having started
very young. My people were des.
perately poor.
"TheSe accomplishments, to-
gether with a gay laugh, rosy
cheeks, a loving heart and hands
willing to work, thought enough
to give the how I loved.
PARENTS OBJECT
"But not so thought his par.
entS. Though poor themselves,
they objected so bitterly to my
poverty that we gave up Oul
hopes Of marriage. Within less
than a year that fond father
and mother were destined to re,
ceive the body of their beloved
son from a river, where he had
been accidentally (?) drowned,
"In later years, these parents
have learned to love me, and
have confessed their mistake and
regret, with tears.
"I'm not advising youngsters
to disregard the wishes of their
parents, but in our case it would
have been Eetter for all of us if
we had. This letter is given for
the consideration of mothers and
fathers who are so sure they

AFTERNOON WEDDING

Dear MIS-. BeeCkman:
1--WE are a young married couple
and have been invited to a city
church wedding at o'clock, with
reception following at the brides
home. What is the correct thing
for each of us to wear?
SUBSCRIBER"
To this daytime church wedding
and reception, you should wear
your most formal street clothes.
A "dressy" suit or ensemble, for
instance, Street-length, or an after
noon dress (street-length) and
topcoat. And you wear your hat,
not only to the church but at the
reception also. If your husband
has formal day attire Getaway
coat and dark striped trousers) he
wears that; otherwise a business
suit, preferably a dark blue one.
The Washington times., 1937-02-05

salad is served as a first course,
placed directly at the place. In
formally, it is served with the
meat course, as an accessory .
notably, of course, with steak or
roast beef (and this service is al
ways applauded by menD At
many informal dinners, and
especially at formal dinners, it is
served as a separate course (after
the main courSe), and accom-
panied by cheese and crackers, or
hot biscuits.
The celery and olives are eaten
before the service of the first
course, during the first course, if
We wish, and before the next
course. They are accompanimentS
that can be "nibbled" at any
time we wish during the dinner,
even up to the dessert course.
If the celery is in short stalks,
hearts of celery for instance, We
usually don't break it, since it is
convenient to eat it "aS is" If
the stalks are long, we may break
them if we find this more con-
venient but we needn't if We
don't wish to.
Olives should be nibbled as we
hold them in our fingers they
should not be entirely put into the
mouth and sucked. We nitDle
around the pit, and put the pit
on the bread and butter plate.
A sherbet served with the meat
course is eaten during the course,
not entirely eaten before We eat
the meat and other accessories
of the course.
Whether we eat "a al American"
(the fork7Shifting way or in the
English way, the non-fork shift
ing way) depends on our own
choice. Either is correct, although
if we eat in the fork-shifting way
in England or on the Continent,
if we happen to be with English
people or with ContinentalS, our
fork-shifting way will be won
dered at.
The fork-shifting way of eating
is more often, CT course, seen here
in America, but there is no doubt,
if we observe, that we will see that
many more and increasingly more
people have adopted the non-fork-
shifting way of eating. In their
travels or in their observation they
have decided that the non-fork-
shifting way is less awkward, less
full of unnecessary motions, more
graceful. . they have tried it, liked
it, approved of it, and have
adopted it.
But there's no taking sides
about it, for it's, as said, entirely
a question of what one likes to do
However, sometimes the ones who
are at first most definitely against
it, try it (maybe surreptitiously)
and are the ones who become most
thoroughly enthusiastic about it.
Anyway, it's fun to try it!

HOUSEWARMING

are settled do they have house
warming? Who is invited? Do

Just as soon as it is convenient

cipient of many gifts. Should

After the marriage has taken
place, it is not necessary to return
the wedding gifts. And the we'd
ding gifts belong to the bride, even
those that were sent by relatives
and friends of her husband.
The only way, I should say, to
retrieve is to ask your husband for
them and depend on his sense Of
fairness to send them to you. And
l pray he has this sense of fair
ness!
