doesn't picture her hero of romance
as scrubbing out the bathtub and
mopping up the floors, or lending a
hand with the washing. Not with
out significance is the fact that
most OF the men who are meticu-
lously neat and tidy, who never
throw their things around, or drop
cigarette ashes on the floor and who
are obviously cut out for good hus-
bands, are old bachelors.
No woman wants husband whose
projections present an invidious
comparison with her own faults and
weaknesses. Nor does she want one
on whom she cannot expend her
passion for reform, thereby depriv-
ing her Of the chief pleasure of mar
riage, which consists in trying to
make her husband over according
to her own little pattern.
Women profess to yearn for per-
feet husbands. but they wouldn't
have one on a bet, because if they
did their chief grievance would be
taken away from them and they
would have practically nothing to
talk about. When three or four
women foregather for a talkfest,
their principal topic of conversa-
ton is their husbands faults.
Fortunately few wives have to
contend with the perfect husband
problem. Most of them are married
to cheerful fellow sinners, which is
what keeps most marriages a going

Proper Rouge
Application
Important
Contours of Face
Always Require
Consideration
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

You should consider rouge as
much a final touch to grooming as
perfume. Neither should be obvious.
Both should be delicately and subtly
applied to embellish your personal
allure.
OF course, there are girls and
women who can do very nicely with
out adding color to their cheeks.
They are fortunate. The majority
of women who are of age, look inf
nitely prettier with a touch of rouge
providing the shade flatters their
skin tone and costume, and if it is
applied on the right spot on the
cheek, smoothly blended.
There are no hard or fast rules
about how to use rouge. There are,
however, general rules, which are
applicable only to four types of faces
round, long and thin, square and
what is termed angular.
There is definite section of the
cheek for each type of face where
rouge is most becoming. Before
applying rouge at all draw an imag-
mary line from the center of your
eye to the corner of your mouth.
Rouge should never be placed nearer
your nose than that line.
Older women and round-faced
women should follow this suggestion.
The long, thin face is widened by
rouge kept high on the cheek bones
and blended outward toward the
temples.
If your face is square, create the
illusion of greater width by placing
your rouge quite near the eyes
broadly, and blending it down your
cheek to the narrow point of a tri-
angle.
Angular faces are a problem. The
most general rule for them is to
follow the natural curve of the cheek
bone and avoid coloring the hollows
of the cheek-that creates a dis
tressing shadow which gives your
face a drawn look.
Now that you know in q general
sort of way where rouge is most
fattering for your type of face, do a
little experimenting with colors and
application.
If your skin is wrinkled, stretch
it with your thumb and first finger
as you rouge. That is so the crevices
will be rouged to give you an even
color.
For deep hollows beneath the eyes,
apply the rouge very close to the
lower eyelashes. Blend it around
the edges with fingers.
Girls with lovely eyes get q pleas
ing effect by keeping rouge close to
temples and ears-thus broadening
their face and keeping the eyes
prominent.
BY pinching your cheeks in day.
light you create a natural blush.
Match your daylight color to this
unless you go in for lipstick and
rouge to accent the color of your
street costume.
Very young and older women
should select soft and creamy
shades, as their natural coloring is
less intense.
Over 20 to so can do a lot of ex-
perimenting with shades. They can
wear pretty much what they wish If
they have an eye for harmony of
color, taking into consideration their
current skin tone, costume and gen.
eral coloring.
My leaflet 'Lipstick Shades and
Winter Colors" helps with your
makeup. If you wish it, write

Helpful Hints

Lemons soaked 10 minutes In
warm water will yield more Juice
than unsoaked lemons. To clean out
a burnt pan add one teaspoon of
soda to each cup of water needed to
fill the pan, cover and simmer 20

remove them with a piece Of the

and baby stare belonging to the girl
next door, who also likes Bud, or AL.
OF course, you'll like some boys
better than others. But it's smart
to put lots of them on the date cal
endar. It means more people to
enjoy, more places to 60, more things
to do, more popularity for you.
You'll be better judge of mankind
when at last you're ready to choose
a life partner.
1t seems foolish for a girl of aver
age popularity to give one male q
monopoly on her time when no en-
gagement ring appears to seal the
bargain; when she has much to lose
and very little to gain, except a
false sense of security. The really
clever young maid about town avoids
entangling alliances.
It's more fun to play the field!
Try it for few months and see for
yourself. Perhaps you do like Bud
awfully well, but 60 out with Jack
and Phil, too. Then you may en-
JOY moments with Bud all the more,
and he can't become too sure of you.
Therell be an extra thrill when it's
his turn to ring the doorbell.
Don't be a maid with a one man
mind!
Tip for Young
Men About Town.
Going steady" isn't playing the
dating game according to the rules.
Doing so isn't fair to the maids, and
it isn't fair to you-because you fall
into rut during years when life
can be exciting and ever changing.
If you want to become a smooth
"date'-if you want to meet new
people and make many friends, and
If you're anxious to acquire that
elusive something called social tech
nique-don't go steady" It cramps
your style.
The most popular fellow we know
seldom dates the same girl more
than twice in one month. Five or
six numbers are always on his list.
He does his increasingly expert best
to provide good times for them all.
Variety is the spice of life-and it
creates experience.

trial of a man for Staying his wife's
lover the wife testified that the rea-
son she lost her affection for her
husband was because he was too
perfect.
She said that he was always good
and kind and considerate. He never
found fault with her or criticized
her cooking. When he came home
at night he would make the beds,
sweep the floors. get the dinner
and wash the dishes. And for the
remainder of the evening he was
ready to be gay and chatty COM
panion or step out with her, as she
preferred. And he never forgot to
tell her how becoming her new hat
was or to give her a parting kiss
when he left the house.
In word, he was the paragon of
a husband of whom every woman
dreams and whose lack the great
majority Of married women spend
their lives lamenting. And she
simply couldn't stand him. Life
with him was like being fed on
daily diet of chocolate creams, and
marriage, like cooking, has to be
favored up with paprika to keep it
from palling on ones palate. So
the lady ran off with man who
would give her more blows than
kisses.
OF course, all the wives who read
about this sad case of woman's in
gratitude will say, How dreadful"
and that she should have been on
her knees thanking heaven for hav-
ing bestowed such gift upon her,
instead of chucking it into the ash
can, so to speak, but in their secret
hearts they will all know just why
she did it. For no woman wants a
perfect husband, as you will realize
If you will observe that the most
devoted wives are worshiping at
the shrines of husbands whose feet
are not only of clay but that have
wandered bit, instead of the model
husbands who are all pure gold.
Indeed, instead of women admir-
ing mems minor virtues, they de-
spise them. No girl is ever attracted
to man by his domestic qualities,
no matter how much she may de-
plore his lack of them later on. She

we prefer above the rest; because

Now Here Is
The Other Side.
Nice going, maids! You've GER
tainly made some good points, but
here's question for you: If you're
''going steady" how are you going
to meet the lads who will love, honor
and cherish? Surely, if Bud and Al
aren't candidates, you'll want to look
elseWhere-and that's rather impos-
sible when you're going steady
When you meet new fellows, they
take one look at Bud and Al and
decide not to ask for your telephone
number.
And who, when the right time
comes and all other qualities being
equal, do you suppose will make
the better wife-the girl who went
steady" or the smart maid who
played the field? Well put our
money on Miss Variety every time
Competition certainly increases a
boys interest in you. 1t can't help
but mean better dates and more
attention. Very few lads lavish all
: the little extras which mean so much
on a "sure thing" They don't have
to! After the first pride of posses
sion" wears off, they let down. They
begin to take the girl for granted.
