For Elbows
And Arms
Sleeveless Gown
Demands Soft,
Smooth Skin.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

EVEN If the calendar didn't tell us
that the social season approaches,
the many letters asking about arm
treatments would serve as the neces-
sary reminder. What to do about
them would be- lovely ladies want to
know.
If you're planning to don evening
dress give your arms and particularly
your elbows a good going over. Need
l remind you to think Of face, neck.
back. shoulders, arms and hands as
one? And give yourself deep down,
all-over facial That's the best way
30 get the skin soft and smooth.
The elbows may be particularly dark
and horny. Which means that they
will need some extra special attention.
First scrub them with bath brush
and good soap every night while you
take your warm cleansing bath. Rinse
thoroughly. That done, prepare to
bleach. Many women find the lowly
lemon a boon for elbow bleaching.
Remove as many seeds as you can and
dig the half lemon over each elbow.
II you don't find 1t too uncomfortable
you can tie the half lemon or heavy
slice of lemon over the elbow and
leave 1t there for while Rinse
And apply lubricating cream to
soften the skin. Leave this on as long
as possible, preferably overnight, and
again you can bind the creamed elbow
in flannel strips to keep the cream on
the skin and off the bed linens.
There are any number of bleaches
you can substitute for the lemon. For
instance, half lemon juice and half
peroxide patted on and allowed to dry
on the skin. Then there are bleaching
packs. The same packs tk It you use
for face and neck are fine. And there
are bleaching creams to be had, some
OF them embodying bleaching and re-
fining properties, so that they bleach,
soften and smooth the skin all In one.
If you are using liquid powder
base for face and neck, blend it over
arms and elbows, too.
If your arms are so thin that you
are sensitive about them when in eve
ming clothes, keep massaging them
with a good lubricating cream and
practice deep breathing and arm
f1inging exercises. If they are too,
too stout. the same f1inging exercises.
but clench the fists and tense the
upper arm muscles. Sports, such as
golf, are grand.

My Neighbor Says:

Leaves make a particularly good
protection for rhododendrons or
perennials that show some foliage
throughout the Winter. They
should be protected by covering
of leaves or straw over the roots
only, leaving the crown or leaves
unprotected to permit free circu-
lation of air about them. The
leaves breathe during the Winter
and a thick layer of dead leaves
packs them down and smothers
the plant.
If you find 1t difficult to sepa-
rate the yolks from the whites
Of eggs, try separating them over
q small funnel. The whites will
pass through, leaving the yolks in
the funnel.
Leftover fish can be made into
q dozen dishes, so 1t is more
economical to buy q good-sized
whole fish and to make it last for
two days, rather than to buy a
small fish that is Just enough.

bodice is lightly shirred to give the

Another amply proportional bag is

in red and black with an odd semi
circular opening, as shown in the little

in wine red and black. Alligator bags
are new in bright ginger color and also
come in black, brown and green with
belts to match. Alligator shoes are
very smart and can be matched to
the bags.
A GAIN for the black street ensemble
is the envelope purse made half
in dull calfskin and half in suede
with accents of pin tucking on the
flap. and matched in gloves which also
combine the two feathers in vertical
stripping with the lines of stitching on

the brilliant jewel tones with match
ing bags to make smart color accents
for dinner and evening ensembles
The black and gold idea is beautifully
done in a pair of short black suede
gloves with gold kid fourchettes
hand-sewn in black. and a matching
bag of black suede with a deep,
narrow triangular inset of gold kid.
With this was shown a massive clip
of gold leaves.
The new colors of Margot wine and
lockwood green found in some of the
smartest new frocks may now be
exactly matched in suede gloves. Di-
agonal lacing OF beige suede across
brown gloves is a new note and may
be matched in handbag. Equally
intriguing for afternoon are the black

In order to secure better teamwork.
The makers of all accessories now
take into consideration the current
trends in color so that it is possible
to match up accessories much more
easily than it was even a few years
ago, when that difficult shade Of
London tan first made its appearance.
A woman is no longer content with
one daytime handbag, but las one for
each ensemble, and if she is wise she
sees to it that each one is fitted with
Its own compact and lipstick TO save
her the trouble of changing these
necessary requisites each time she
uses a different f-g.
Handbags favor all sizes and many
feathers, with an important revival
of alligator Particular emphasis is
laid on smartly styled initials and
monographs. The monogram makes the
bag individual and often furnishes
its one note of decoration. Large
initials in long, slender script are
popular at the moment and the three
letter monogram with the center
initial larger than the other two makes
q very smart bag finish.

NEAR MISS DIX: My husband

I $40. Two years ago r gave me
new automobile for my birthday.
This year l traded 1t in for nep

ago 1 took out a charge account az
the furriers and purchased for myself

Answer-My earnest advice TO Won
is to curb your extravaganza and try
to live within your income, instead
of plunging wildly in debt, as you are
doing. Otherwise, you are bound N
come to grief and lose, not only your
home, but your husband.
For he is a sane and sensible man
and he sees that your folly is bound
to wreck YOU both and turn mar
rage that should be happy and pros
porous one into q failure. With your
combined salaries you should he lay
ing the foundation for fortune.
but instead of that you are heading
straight for ruin.
THE great railroad builder. Hill.
l. once said that the first year Of
any young married couples life told
what they would be when they were
middle-aged. If they had saved even
500, they would be sitting pretty on
Easy street. If they we're in debt ever
for 500. they would spend the bal
ance of their lives in Poverty Flat.
And that's true. and you are max
ing the decision right now OF whether
your husband will be prosperous.
successful man. or whether you vii
keep him poor and hard run and with
his nose to the grindstone by your
senseless spending. You are trying
TO live like a millionaire on q mod
crate salary. You are not only not
saving anything. but are going in
debt. You know we'll enough that
YOU cannot afford TO have new auto
mobile every two years, or to wear real
silver fox. or have a grand piano. or
to dress like the Queen of Sheba. And
you also know that your husband is
perfectly right when ne objects 10
your indulging yourself in these lux
uries and burdening him With debts
for things you do not need. For IN
the end he will have TO pay the piper,
as the money you earn will be but

ness.
