WOMAN,S REALM

 Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Stan Writer


 With Easter only about two months away, it might be a good idea to:
 Decide right now how much weight you want to lose-or gain before you start shopping for new spring clothes. Then plan definite campaign, laying down exercise and diet rules which you can and will stick to.
 Consider a new coiffure. If swept upward hairdresses just aren't flat tering, try variations of the brushed up theme. Maybe you can keep your long bob, but, by lifting your hair upward away from your face, devise some sort of coiffure that will be in tune with the new mode, yet fiattering you.
 Use a circulation cream once a week. Experts agree that prepara- tions of this type tend to clarify the complexion. eliminating yellowish or grayiSh tones.
 Ask for face powder samples at your favorite cosmetics counter, take them home and try each until you find one which matches exactly the tone of your skin. Forget the shade you liked last spring. Your com plexion isn't likely to be just as it was year ago.
 Spend some time learning anew just how and where to apply rouge. If you possibly can afford it, go to an expert for one professional makeup job. Watch carefully every thing she does, then ask to be shown how to do each step your self. If this isn't possible, send for a makeup chart booklet Gall the bet ter known cosmetics manufacturer have there), and study it.
 Do your limbering and stretching routines more corscientiously. Re- gardless of your weight and whether you intend to have new clothes or wear you old ones with new access sories, you should realize the im- portance of keeping your body supple and youthful.
 Eat a large green salad once a day, and try to be more interested in green vegetables than in desserts. Moderns substitute these for the un- pleasant sulphur and molaSseS con- coctions that grandmother recom- mended as a spring tonic.

Paris Styles

Paris (UP) - For the already style-conscious sub-10-year- old, who likes being in high fashion, just like her mother, Paris designers are adapting grown-up features to lit lte-girl frocks.
 For the belle of a party, swish ing taffeta dress edged with rabbit fur at the square neck and circular knee-length skirt, has been design ed. The dress has full puffed sleeves and tight, beltless waist, just like mothers new gowns,
 Almost grown-up are the smart ly tailored redingotes with three patch pockets. The skirt of the coat is slightly flared and reaches just below the knees. A matching hat with a rubberized band to be slipped under the chin is worn with it. A big round pom-pom made of tiny black feathers is tilted right in front of the hat. Black, low-heeled, patent

leather slippers complete the en- se1nble.
 There is 8 velvet coat with zip- pers all the way up the front. The sleeves of this coat are padded at the shoulders. The collar is narrow and straight, like a Chinese collar. The velvet hat, too, has a Chinese shape to it, even to the tiny white queue in back. There is green, all- over pleated dress shown with the coat. There are tailored revers at the collar and four brim bows down the front to the waist.
 For Sunday school there is a woolen, waist-long bolero dress that is an exact copy of 8 school teach CTS frock. Marrow bands of Astra- khan fur edge the opening of the jacket and the two tiny pockets on each side. The sleeves are long, the skirt is short, and there are tiny box-pleats both in front and back.

 Don't indulge your sense of hu- nor in grooming about the life of a married man and go about pre- tending that marriage is wom- ans whin and a mans Nemesis It isn't unfilingly funny, and it does carry 8 sting.
 Make an effort to be as nice to our friends as we are to yours. Be- fore you grumble over Mary's com ing to dinner, stop to think how we acted about good old Bill. your college roommate, who loves to reminiSce.
 But even though we want you to be nice to our friends you need not be too whole-hearted in your praise of any woman She a wonderful girl but" pleases more wives than She's a knockout"
 And couldn't you be just one-half as willing to listen to us as we are to you? After all we don't find your shop talk much more stimulating than you find ours, but we make a gallant pretense. You might try it some time.
 Please never stop the special courtesies that are due us because we are women. Or if you prefer because you are a gentlemen. A man may be just average" in the eyes of the world, but If he always pulls out his wife's chair for her and lights her cigarette, she probably won't feel that she made such a bad marital bet.
 Be fair about money. Many a husband tips lavishly when his wife has to carry groceries five blocks to save ten cents on meal.

SMOKE AND THE CIRCULATION

SMOKE AND THE CIRCULATION
 Tobacco smoke increases blood pressure, raises the pulse rate, con- tracts the smallest blood vessels in the skin and in the tissues and or gans of the body and so restricts the blood supply and nutrition of these tissues and organs. Some times, according to Dr. T. c. Minn- haar, writing in Revista Medica del Rosario, Rosario de Santa Fe, Ar gentina, smoking may cause an- gina pectoris or thrombo-angitis obliterans in susceptible persons.
 The effects of tobacco smoking vary according to the reaction of the smallest arteries to carbon mOnOX- idle absorbed by the hemoglobin in the blood while smoking, and also with the reaction of the smallest arteries to local SpaSm or constric- tion-thiS Spasm or constriction of the artery wall being brought about through the stimulation of the sym pathetic nerve which controls the function of the muscular coat of the artery.
 Dr. Minnhaar observed a group of smokers who suffered with dis orders of the heart rhythm Cir regularitieS of heart beaD and a sensation of compression of the thorax or chest When smoking was stopped the symptoms disap- peared or the progress of the trouble was arrested. Of twenty eight men who suffered from an- gina pectoriS all had been excessive smokers. sTwo women suffering from Angina pectoris had never smoked.
 That symptom, sense of con- pression or restriction of the thorax or chest, is rather SuggeS- tive of carbon monoXide anoXia. It requires an astonishingly low degree of pollution of the inspired air with carbon monoxide to crowd enough oxygen out of blood and tissues to produce serious effects. The body cells must have an un- interrupted supply of oxygen in order to function; if the oxygen supply is greatly restricted or shut of altogether for a few seconds, the cells, some of them, quickly die, or are so gravely damaged that full recovery is questionable.
 Smoking can be allowed only to normal persons, Dr. Minnhaar con- cludes, and then in moderation. It should be absolutely prohibited to youths under the age of Is years (euuivalent to q or g years in the United States), to expectant and to nursing mothers.
 pr. D. c. Chapman, quoted here fhe other day on the effects of smoking, reports that smoking de- creases the blood flow to about one third of its normal, causes an in- crease of from 12 to Is nm. ir blood pressure. speeds up the pulse rate from 10 to 20 beats a minute And lowers the surface skin tenn ,,aratiare as much as 15 1-2 degrees 5Eahrenheit, more in the toes thar sn the fingers.

 Few groups have done so much for our boys and girls, in the way of character de- velopment, as our Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts or organizations operating on the same de- sign. They have for their credos all the sterling character goals and honor-molding ideals that the best thought offers.
 Your child may be proud indeed, mother, to belong to such a group. And I shall con- clude this short eulogy by saying that in many cases children learn more practical self-help in these groups, than they do at home.
 However, there is a tendency at the mo- ment to organize everything. The children

white heart" Harvey made the

might qualify for a pension.
