Don't for one moment think that
the tra-lavish influence in clothes
is going to stop there Draped
backs, nipped-in waists and a gen.
eral air of refinement is also bound
to influence your general appearance
your coiffure and makeup. So
even though you've always done
your best to achieve perfect groom
ing, it will be worth your while to try
even harder this season. And we
promise that you'll receive assistance
from the manufacturers and buyers
of beauty aids as well as any help
that beauty editors can give.
First of all, you'll never manage
that perfectly turned-out look If
your complexion is not up to par,
and there's no reason why you can't
do something about improving it..
One helpful product is the formula
of a famous skin specialist and has
only recently been presented to the
public. It is liquid that acts as an
excellent powder base, meantime
helping to restore your skin to its
natural beauty. While hiding blem-
ishes on your face, it works to cor
rect them and goes on so smoothly
and evenly that you'd select it as
a powder base even if it had none of
these other important virtues. De-
signed as a scientific skin aid, this
formula really works in three ways:
First, hiding unsightly blemishes;
second, correcting them and re-
storing the smoothness of the COM
plexion, and last, doing a grand job

the same thing goes for half-breeds
that prove themselves mans best
friend.
No. Somehow or other we feel
that the show dog mark has been
overshot. 1t isn't the dog in the
home who needs the sympathy and
understanding. It's the highly bred
speciman tucked away in some ken
nel lonely and puzzled The pup
who's cared for by kennel hands and
handlers, travelling the circuit from
kennel to show ring to new owner
to kennel to show ring, etc. And the
brood matron receiving routine at
tention, and maybe an official pat
when she produces fine litter of
puppies. Dogs who are like the Dres-
den china vase high up on safe
place on the mantel Dogs who be-
long to masters who only value them
for the prizes they win. Dogs who
are a business and not friend, who
never know the JOY of loving and
being loved.
National Dog Week won't make up

Dorothy Dix Says
Courtship Should Be Time to See
Future Mates True Disposition

Courtship should be season of
intensive and prayerful investiga-
ton in which young couple should
use all of their detective powers in
trying to find out what sort of a
woman or man they are considering
spending the next thirty or forty
years with. Instead, it is time
they put forth all of their arts and
wiles to deceive each other and tell
each other fairy stories.
The suitor only shows himself to
his lady love when he is barbered
within an inch of his life. He is
simply a mush of complacence and
her will is his law. He tells her
that she hasn't fault or flaw in
her entire makeup, and that If she
will only marry him that he will
love her as woman was never loved
before and spend the remainder of
his life holding her lily-White hand.
The girl is equally mendacious.
She also puts her best foot forth.
She never appears before the boy
friend without having a fresh wave
and putting on her best complexion
and company manners. She is
meekly adoring and only wants to
do the things that he wants to do.
She Is so sweet-tempered that she
doesn't need to sugar her, tea. Her
theme song is how big and strong
and wonderful he is and how mar
velous that he knows everything.
No doubt it would put a crimp in
the vital statistics if courtship were
conducted on a frank and honest
basis. Probably no girl would say

They're going to crown King
Canine for 1899" this year during
National Dog Week. The affair will
be broadcast over the air waves dur
ing the week of September II to %.
I don't know whether Pups will ap-
preciate the honor done him or not.
Or whether he'll even consider it an
honor. The program isn't just for
dogs to listen to, anyway. It's more
for owners, or the owned (hoWever
the situation may stand in the
family.
For when all the shooting is over
it's the individual and his or her
dog that count the most, as far as
dogs are concerned. Fanciers keep
the standard up, and breeders pro-
duce the stock. But in the final
analysis only the real dog lover re-
turns value for value received from
the canine.
Because a dog is a liftime piece
1t isn't "lot" of merchandise to be
discarded because something bet
ter has come along. Not unless it
has some real fault such as hatred
of the human race. Only dyed-in-

never having an owner long enough

But the individual who purchases

then settles down on a companion
able basis has something And if
the pure bred is up to par at all she
can show" a bit. If the dog doesn't
win, it matters not. Hers is the
fun of the game. The dog is hers

School Days Are Here Agaand With Them the Lunch Box Pobr
Good Facial
Exercises
Helpful
Lazy Muscles Sag
1fNot Kept Firm
And Developed
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

If you exercise your body to keep
muscles youthfully elastic 1t stands
to reason that your face will bene-
fit If you exercise its voluntary mus
cles-those which raise your eyelids,
move your chin and mouth and turn
your head. Lazy muscles, they tell
us, sag from underdevelopment, 50
If we wish to retain youthful coun-
tenance we will strive to keep our
face muscles firm.
A Well-knoWn cosmetician recon-
mends three exercises to be done
night and morning to keep contour
firm and lovely.
The first is the Huff and Puff,
which is for nose to mouth lines
those grooves which seem to grow
deeper as we grow older!
You fill the mouth with air and
puff hard against the inside of
your cheek and upper lip, keeping
the lips slightly opened to let the
air out in little puffs, as If you
were playing d HOlH.
This is done 20 times.
If you would correct or prevent a
double chin, and keep clear cut,
youthful jaw line, you will mimic
your favorite opera star! Tilt your
head back slightly, open mouth wide,
and then slowly (but with perfect
controD close the mouth by pulling
up the lower jaw. Do this 20 times
looking at yourself in the mirror
and imagine you are ending clear
lovely note in a song! This should
be done 20 times.
Again fill your mouth with air
and puff out your cheeks to ca
pacity. AS you release the air in
little puffs (as in the Huff and
Puff exercise) turn your head slow
ly from right to left pretending you
are trying to chase bee away with
! your breath You may do this as
often as you Wish-from 10 to 20
times.
A man who has under his direc-
ton lot of talent and beauty in
Hollywood believes strongly in neck
and eye exercises to keep your face
! pretty.
For instance, he suggested that
daily you sit before your reflection
and stare at it wide eyed. Open
your eyes as far as you can, and
then slowly close them-still star
ing at yourself. Don't be alarmed
if your eyes cross a bit while you
are doing this exercise.
There are some other splendid
neck exercises which help your ia
cial contour in my free leaf1et "Rules
to Danish the DoWager's Hump"
They also help to give you an ap-
pealing throat line. If you request
this leaflet be sure to inclose self
addressed envelope, bearing a 3-cent
stamp, to cover mailing costs. Write
me care of this paper.
Keep your face and neck young
let others guess your age!

Ny Neighbor Soys:

Use a sharp knife when cut
ting flowers and always cut on
the slant.
Use mild soap or soap pow
der for washing painted walls.
Strong solutions are likely to
remove the paint or streak the
surface. Use quantities of clean
water and plenty of clean
cloths. Wash a small space at
time and then wipe 1t dry. If
you use a prepared paint cleaner
be sure to follow the directions.
After you have used a
chamois skin for cleaning win
dows or washing the car, rinse
it out three times, shake it well
and hang it up to dry. Pull
and shake it several times while
it is drying. CThat will keep
it soft.) Chamois should be
dried slowly-never directly in
the sun or over heat.
Mix your spices to save time
in cooking. Add four table
spoonfuls of cinnamon to two
tablespoonfuls each of cloves,
nutmeg, ginger and mace.
Place them in a large salt
shaker and keep 1t handy.

ives" If her suitor said: Look here,
Mary. I'm not going to hand you
any hokum about your being Miss
America and ask you why you aren't
in the movies, because my eyesight
is still unimpaired and I can see
that you haven't any looks to boast
about. Neither am I going to tell
you that you are getting any prize
package if you take me for a hus-
band, because I have cantankerous
disposition and it isn't going to be
any picnic to live with me. Nor
am I a money-maker. We will prob
ably always be poor and you will
have to do your own work and push
your own baby carriage. But such
as you are, love you. Will you
marry me?"
And probably no man would pop
the question to a girl who warned
him in time to save himself that
she was mamma s spoiled darling;
that she was used to bossing her
family and would soon get her hus-
band under her thumb; that she
was high-tempered and extravagant
and lazy, and that the man who
married her would have to get up
and get his own breakfast, walk on
eggs to keep from riling her and
spend the remainder of his life en-
slaved to speciality shops.
So, perhaps, all things considered,
such as maintaining the ratio OF
population, the discipline OF our
souls through suffering, and the
prosperity of the divorce industry,
it is just as we'll that courtship is
conducted on the confldence-game

Now for the Edible
Contents!
Now comes the problem of the
lunchbox menus. Well-we don't
have to tell you that milk is a
must" in any child's diet, and
therefore it should be included daily.
But it needn't be there just in the
form of plain milk to drink. 1t can
be combined in soups, in custards
or similar desserts, or presented as
cocoa or as some chocolate and malt
concoction. Just SO 1t is there in a
different form every day! AS the
weather grows colder, milk or
cream" soups are a perfect solu-
ton, for they nourish and warm
the child and appeal to his appetite,
Whetted by the crisp air. Many
leftover vegetables can be used in
these soups, too, thus solving the
problem of what to do with those
little dabs of peas, carrots, spinach
or what have you reposing in the ice
box over night.
Sandwiches are one Of the good
old standbys for lunch boxes and
are hard to beat. Their name is
legion-and don't overlook the fact
that you can vary the breads as
we'll as the filings. Nut bread,
whole wheat, real pumpernickled,
toast, honey-favored. and so on,
may all be used to advantage.
Fruit In some form should always
be included, of course, and often a
bit of mild cheese provides extra
nourishment and interest to such
items as pears or apples.
If you are using the milk quota
in dessert form, you might fill the
thermos with any one of the many
fine fruit and vegetables juices avail
able in tins everywhere today.
There are SO many of these from
which to choose that plenty of va
riety is easily obtained-and de-
pending upon the weather, you can
put them into the bottle hot or cold.
I have prepared leaflet contain
ing lunch box menus for 10 days
if you would like 1t, write to me,
inclosing a 2 or cent stamp, de-
pending upon where you live, and
I shall be only too glad to mail it
to you at once.
