PERFUME-PRoPER AND IMPROPER USE

the tips of your fingers, the bend of
your arm. Be very wary about put
ting it on your hair. There are spe-
cial preparations especially manu-
factured to make your hair glamor-
Gus. Perfume clings to it-and to
furs-long after it has become stale.
According to popular theory, scent
rises and for this reason many peo-
pie like to put a touch on their
ankles and on the hens of their
dresses. l can't stress too much,
however, the Importance of modera-
tion. Perfume should be subtle,
glamOrous and remote fragrance
that fingers about your person, not
a scent that noisily announces your
arrival and is more displeasing
than compelling to those around
you.
Select Perfume That Suits
Select a perfume that suits you
and use it consistently. People will
grow to associate it with you just
as the scent of pine is reminiscent
of the north woods and lilacs Of the
spring. A dash of your favorite
perfume can give you as much lift
as a new hat or an exciting date.
Be enchantingly, romantically
fragrant, and, above all, certain
that you haven't applied an over
dose of liquid allure.
What are your beauty prob
lens? Write Marie Downing,

Perfume Is one of the most an
cient means used by woman to snare
her man. Famous queens of his.
tory are said to have perfumed
themselves with glamorous scents
They spent small fortunes having
their perfumes blended into special
scents to fit their moods and per-
s0nalities. Fortunately, at this ad-
vanced day and age there are good
perfumes within the reach of the
most modest purse, and such a
great variety of scents that we can
select the ones best suited to our
particular need without paying so
much for special blending.
Floral Scents Now-Exotic
Perfumes Later
Any advice / give you as to the
choice of perfumes will probably be
superfluous since you will select the
one that appeals to you most at the
time you buy. This much l will say,
however: Light floral scents are
best for summer use. A heavy per-
fume on hot night defeats it's own
purposes. A light touch of gar
denia or of carnation or the ever
popular and ultra-feminine lavender
will contribute to your freshness on
a summer night. Save the heavier,
more languorous scents for winter
when you are being your most CLAM
orous In sweeping gowns. Exotic
perfumes, rich materials, and snowy
evenings-these are an unbeatable
combination.
If you aren't accustomed to u.s.
ing perfume, be careful how you
apply it. Better far to use none at
all than to go out smelling like
walking perfume counter. Apply it
lightly to the lobes of your ears,

nOROTHY LEE WARD, who is
~ the most thoughtful person,
sends us good-by letter from
New York before sailing for
Europe. If Dorothy Lee follows
her mapped-out schedule she will
be practically exhausted on her
return. OF course Europe is an
old story to her, but she intends
doing England, Scotland, Ger
many, Carlsbad, Vienna, and a
"look-see" in Paris for clothes
before coming back here in Oc-
tober.
Dorothy Lee admits that she
doesn't know why she is going
away, for she has been so happy
here with her friends. And
heaven knows-She has a
world of them. Frankly, we shall
miss her terribly.
GRACE HILEMAN, the very
" efficient secretary of Sena-
tor William Borah, is wearing
one of the smartest of summer
dinner frocks. The dress is
made of filmy white lace, en-
broidered all over with the most
delicate flowers, possesses wee
wisp of train and a jacket with
flowing sleeves and looks as cool
as frozen Sherbet.
MRS. BARGE HARTZ, who is
NA completely crazy about
dogs (any kind), has a new pet.
The pet, a dachshund named
Heinie, is just three months old,
is very polite and especially so
to the feminine sex. All of
which is very unfortunate for
Heinie, for Mrs. Hartz has
another dog, a cocker spaniel
named Topsy, who up until last
week had the run of the house.
Well, Heinie, like all gentle
men the world over in similar
situation, was very anxious to
be friends with the charming
and fascinating Topsy. But it
was no use; she couldn't stand
him. However, it wasn't until
yesterday that Topsy showed
her real feelings. Mrs. Hartz
walked into her sitting room to
see if Heinie was in his basket
and enjoying life.
The sight that met her eyes
was amazing. Heinie's basket
was turned upside down with,
unhappily, a whimpering Heinie
nearly suffocated beneath it,
and-sitting on top of the baS-
ket, in the attitude Of a con-
quering Amazon, was Topsy, SO
pleased with the world that she
would, if she could, have purred.
