The tip had come from an Off
Ger of the line, who reported that

scription had boarded the liner
with Frank Steinman, an aviator.
Steinman told the liners captain
he had not seen Whitfield in three

People should never wear shoes that have been dyed, until the shoes have stood in the air at least "A hours to droy out thoroughly.

And man, being a naturally per- verse creature, begins to wonder if what he has is really as excit- ing as what he hasn't.
 Whether or not he sets about finding out depends on the kind of man he is. But he is bound to wonder. And his wondering - which a woman always senses - makes her miserable.
 For she is perfectly satisfied with the man she married. He has his faults but she always knew that. For women are real ists. They know without experi- ence that men are men, and if be- ing married to one is not as ex- citing as they hoped, being mar ried to another would probably be just as much of a let-down.
 But a man is bound to cling to the romantic notion that the wo- man he has just met has all sorts of possibilities. That is why he finds a woman, not half as attrac- tive as his wife, infinitely more fascinating.
 It is why he plunges into admir- ation for any halfway attractive girl, who, if he knew her well, would soon bore him.
 If you doubt that this is pure ly 8 masculine weakness, watch the next time you are out for an even- ing's fun. The men in the crowd will talk for ten minutes about the beautiful girl across the room. But not 8 single woman will mention how much like Gary Cooper the

 From time to time some one sim cerely imagineS or convincingly pre- tends to believe he or she has dis covered magic remedy to prevent scar formation or, even more, to dissolve" or remove scar that has already formed. Some people still believe in fairies, ghosts and Santa Claus.
 Scar tissue is fibrous tissue that has been laid down to replace de- stroyed cellular tissue. Once depos- ited it remains forever, unless sur gically excised. It may gradually shrink to some extent with the passing of years, but nothing can possibly remove or dissolve" it or cause it to disappear except sur gical obliteration or excision. X-ray treatment is one surgical method which sometimes softens and smooths and improves the cosmetic appearance of a scar.
 Skilful surgical eXcision and re- pair of the wound is the best way to deal. with overgrown CT excessive and mutilating scar; often this in- wolves skin grating to aid in the healing.
 The paint described earlier Gas a covering for white spots, leuco- derma) may serve well to conceal scars which are nearly level with the surrounding skin surface. Prepare the paint yourself, as follows:
 Mix 1 1-2 ounces of zinc oxide, 1 1-2 ounces of powdered calamine, 1-2 ounce of glycerin, enough water to make one pint Then add, drop by drop, with constant stirring, enough Ichthyol to give the paint a tint to match the normal skin. Us- ually from 10 to 60 drops of ichthyol will be sufficient.
 Label the preparation Cosmetic Paint" and use it to conceal white spots or any other blemishes that are unsightly. The paint washes of easily, and of course must be re- applied as often as needed.

day, in spite, or, perhaps because of their new-found independence.
 These children have a lot to con- tend with, too. They are often eX- pected to be more grown-up than they are. They are so cute that they are put on exhibition frequently. It isn't wise, I suggest Because the baby stage is past, these matters are not considered sufficiently in many homes.
 Ego Is Delicate
 Worst of all, 4-year-olds suffer keenly from self consciousness. They need praise, and not too many scold- ings. It is the proudest period of all life, and the most easily bruised. l believe that if we really examined the peculiar behavior of almost any small child at this time, we would find most of his temptations rather eXcusable, and do our disciplinig as we'll as we could. without hurting his self-respect, or esteem.
 I shall write about inferiority again, but I cannot resist saying here that I believe most of the dam age to character is done at this time, in this year or two before the child reaches the reasonable" stage, and acts his worst while he feels the deepest.
 l am no believer in any magic to cure inferiority. Most people have it. We must live with it and make the best of it, but when it cuts too deeply, we are done for. Let us help our pre-school children to keep their pride.

 No Longer a Baby
 And just so the little child of three or four enters into his own world. He is a person, at last. He thinks first hand, now. He obeys more than instinct. He is more able to do his own going, and to pick and choose his actions.
 So many, many mothers ask me how it comes that their three-or- four-year-o odds, who used to be so good, suddenly go haywire and act terribly. Really they won't be such puzzles, if parents allow little rope until this first great push is spent, and try to understand this new flush of power. Usually these three-or- four year-olders are reasonable little people, even at this early stage, and there is much for parents to enjoy as they watch them day by

Household Hints
.BEAUTY.
BEAUxX- GI0riwng Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Staff Writer

She may not be able to go to g. beauty shop for more than a weekly shampoo and finger-wave but the average woman generally can arrange to have a beauty-even- ing at home once week.
 This may mean a Stricter bud getting of time or more seIf-disci- pline about leisure hours. It may even mean bit of reorganization of the household schedule. But a beauty-evening is worth any one of these, or all of them. It will pay huge dividends in youthful ness, a pleasanter disposition, Q brighter outlook.
 Simply set aside one night for yourself. Resolve not to answer the doorbell or the telephone not more than once, anyway. Be- gin as soon as the dinner dishes are out of the way and the chil- dren. if any, have been put to bed or are busy with their home work.
 Start by giving your hair one hundred upward strokes with Q clean brush. Now tie a/towel or strip of gauge around your head, carefully clean face and neck, then cover them with your rich est cream.
 You do limbering and stretch ing and perhaps one or two re- ducing exercises next. At the end of the day and you're tired, so you do these for only seven or eight minutes. You won't believe it until you try it, but exercises will relax your tired body, calm your frazzled nerves. Do them slowly quietly, stimulating circulation gradually, taking the kinks out of aching muscles in unhurried man. ner.
 Now for a bath. And let it be a tub bath. warm and soapy, with bath salts thrown in for good meas ure if you happeH to have some. Scrub your shoulders, back, feet neeS and elbows with brush. Then unless sitting in the water, relax there in the tub for five minutes SlOoL1lS yOul SyCo dAAN .AAhinhA0 of something pleasant.
 When you are dry and every trace of the cream on face and throat has been removed, apply a mask. This can be homemade one of the commercially prepared varieties. Lie down for 20 min utes or until the mask is dry.
 Another application of cream follows the rinsing off of the mask. Unless your skin is oily this one stays on until you are ready to go to sleep. One with oily skin should remove the cream within five minutes and pat on cold skin tonic or mild astringent.
 The next half hour can be given over to a manicure, use of a depilatory, certainly a deodorant, or whatever beauty treatment you feel you need. Afterward, you just go to bed to get big nights sleep in itself wonderful beauty treat ment.

AND TREATMEN.
 OF SCARS

Scientific first aid as well as sub Sequent treatment of cuts, burns and other injuries or wounds is the best way to prevent scarring or excessive or mutilating scar formations. Cuts about the face should have the most skilful surgical treatment available, immediately after the accident, for much depends upon the character of the first aid rendered and the man. ner in which the wound is stitched if stitches are necessary and dressed in the first few hours. Too often the counsel or service of the qualified plastic or sculptural surgeon is sought only after the lapse of days or weeks.
 Credulous folks sometimes apply foolish or actually harmful remedies to wounds or burns, without medical approval, because they so readily be- lieve certain odd or mystic prepara-
