running over with new ideas and

the skin a mellow glow that blends
beautifully with the old-but-new-
fashioned clothes this year. We
stopped in at beauty salon where
it's being featured and the demon

How to Care for
Your Draperies

Draperies and slip covers of
chintz, cretonne and the like no
longer are just summer home fur
nishings. In many smart houses
they are used the year round.
Many women prefer that these
be washed under their own super
vision, fearing that the slightest
carelessness in handling may harm
the fabric, but that if they are
properly cleansed the texture and
color will be unimpaired. First of
all, any such fabric should be gone
over thoroughly with the vacuum
cleaner to remove all remaining
dust. Incidentally, cleansing such
materials is made much easier If
the vacuum cleaner is used habit
ually on them. Then, when wash
ing time comes, far less soil needs
to be removed and the washing and
rinsing time, therefore, are greatly
reduced.
Wash the fabrics in warm, soapy
bran water. Bran softens water,
brightens colors and slightly stiffens
fabrics. Take two large handfuls
of bran and put them into cheese
cloth bag or square. Tie it secure
ly. stew" it for 80 minutes in a
large enameled-ware saucepan, COW
ering the bag with water, then add
the resultant liquid to the wash

Eye 'Blinkers'

Good NOurishment
And Rest Makes
Orbs Sparkle
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

All of us might benefit by the
simple but intelligent care Gale
Page Of Hollywood gives her eyes.
Because acting under brilliant
lights takes its toll on the eyes (as
does strong sunlight, she feels her
eyes should be especially pampered,
for unless they are rested and with
natural brightness her movie work
would suffer.
Here is Gales pet formula for
healthy orbs:
She gets at least eight hours of
sleep each night. If she stays up
late at night, she stays In bed late
the next morning.
If any sort of bright light shines
into her room Gncluding MOON
hghtD, she dons back velvet blink
ers" to protect and rest her eyes.
These blinkers she carries while
travelling, too, and they frequently
come in handy while resting on a
train, or plane, or on deck OF boat!
Ever so often during the day she
closes her eyes for the count of 100
and then opens them and focuses
them on some distant object for
another count of so. This excellent
optic exercise has given her much
eye comfort and she urges all girls
to adopt it.
Before she goes to a party at night
particularly If she has had an
arduous day, she relaxes her eve
muscles with warm congresses and
then firms them with chilled astrin-
gent-soaked pads.
On dusty days she washes her eyes
with a weak solution of boric acid,
but she does not wash her eyes daily
with this solution.
In making up her eyes, Gales first
thought is the frame" for her eyes.
She pulls the skin taut below the
eyes as she applies her liquid powder
base SO her powder will go on
smoothly and remain smooth. She
then covers her lid with a becoming
shade of eye shadow and blends it
toward her brows. Her brows retain
their natural line which follows the
bony structure above her eyes and
she simply plucks a straggler hair
here and there. She never makes a
thin, unlovely pencil line.
To make her eyes appear darker,
she uses mascara on both lashes and
brows, of the same shade. With
quick, short strokes she applies it so
1t will not look too artificial.

Halloween Looms Horizon and Herads the Approach Parties
Care of Nails
Stops Habit
OF Biting
Chewed Fingers Apt
ToBecOmeClunsv
And Desensitized
BY ANGELO PATRI.


There are children who bite their
nails whenever their attention is
centered on something that does
not force them to use their mus
cles. This is especially marked
when they are reading to them
selves. Lost in the story they are
completely unaware that they are
biting their finger nails; usually
lie index finger end fares the
worst. No amount of talking seems
to help. The moment the mind is
occupied with the book the finger
goes to the mouth. The child Is
scarcely conscious of it, but he feels
happier that way.
This is not pretty habit. It
Is never pleasing to look at a child
gnawing away at his finger ends
in this fashion. 1t makes one un-
easy to see his mind absent and
the lesser mind, the one that is not
50 nice about physical habits, in
control. Fingers look better if the
nails are well kept. And they do
their work better, that way. There
are sensitive nerve ends at the tips
Of the fingers with which we feel
our way about the world. They
enable us to make the nice adjust
ments we need in writing, drawing,
sewing, doing any fine work. We
need them for feeling our way.
When the nails are broken and
bitten of, down to the quick, the
protection of the nail is lost and
nature grows thick skin over the
finger ends to give this protection
But thick skin is dull skin. The
fine sensitivity of the thin skin is
lost. The touch is dull, the action
OF the fingers clumsy. Biting the
nails is costly in terms of skill,
comfort and general intelligence.
We express our thoughts with our
hands, and if they are dulled and
clumsy our expressions are like that,
too. Good handWork aids the de-
velopment of fine intelligence. One
cannot have good handwork if the
finger ends are injured by nail-bit-
Ing
What can we do to persuade the
child to attend to this? To forego
the pleasure and comfort of plac-
ing his finger in his mouth while
he reads or studies? Get him to
understand why he should. Then
get him to want to stop the prac-
tice. 1t is easier to get a boy to
help himself this way than it is to
get a girl to want to have good
nails so much that she is willing
to sacrifice the pleasure for the
profit. The boy oftener than the
girl wants to do good work with
his hands, and he is more sensi-
tive about the appearance he makes
In this respect-finger in mouth ap-
pears infantile and stupid-and he
responds sooner. Sometimes we can
interest the girl in wanting to have
pretty hands bad enough to take
care of them little.
In any case, talk about the need
for finely sensitive finger tips, about
the beauty of well-kept hands, about
the value of efficient hands. Dwell
on the point of use related to in
telligence. There is such a thing
as "dumb-looking" hands and no
child wants to own them. If he
can see his hands in the light of
Intelligence, he will be led to de-
velop them sooner.

Then, when all's well, take him home

Thank You
Note for

BY EMILY POST.

Dear Mrs. Post: My employers
wife came into the office the other
day and gave me a lovely present
which she brought back from
abroad recently. This was only ths
third or fourth time I had seen her.
Naturally thanked her at the time,
but now wonder whether I should
write her note, and if so, what can
say to her. The fact that hardly
know her makes it very awkard for
me.
Answer-It all depends. If when
she handed it to you she waited
or was standing near when you
opened it-your "Oh, thank you,
Mrs. JONES'" and then something
about how much you liked the pres
ent would have been quite enough,
and no additional note of thanks
necessary. But if she gave it to you
quickly when passing your desk, and
you had no chance to open it, and
no more than q second in which to
say Thank you," you would then
naturally write a note telling her
how lovely the present is or how
useful it is going to be. Or, in the
same way, had she sent you the
present, then happened to come into
the Office, note in addition to
verbal thanks would have been an
exaction of politness. Perhaps this
sounds contradictory, but just as a
bride is not expected to write notes
for shower presents which are
opened and looked at and thanked
for, she must write notes of thanks
for presents that are sent-no.
handed to her. A casual as we'll as
brief "Oh, thank you for the pres
ent you sent me" won't do at all!
This rule Of necessity for notes Of
thanks for wedding presents has be-
come strict because people send the
incest present they can, whereas
shower presents are frankly trifles.

1t isn't safe to leave Pups in the
best part of the house on a rainy
day. Not unless he's been escorted
on his morning walk; escorted and
observed!
Unfortunately, few mortais enjoy
walking outdoors on an uncomfort-
ably wet fall day, poets and the Eng
lish excluded. The statement par
ticularly applies to early morning
pre-breakfast jaunts. And dog own
ers know that Pups must go out the
first thing in the morning if good
manners are to be observed. So, con-
sidering the weather, they simply
escort the canine to the door and
shove him out, then flee to the inner
warmth. A few moments later
there's scratch at the door or q
bark to come in. They rush to let
the poor wet dog enter. Or maybe
the signal comes later, Pups mean
while having sought and found a
warm spot under the house.
Anyway, he's let in. At the first
opportunity an accident" occurs.
That's the term, although the whole
business will be found to be premedt-
tated. For the truth of the matter
is that dogs don't like cold wet days
any better than any one else. And
they're not going to put up with
them, If possible. If there's any way
to get to shelter they'll do so. Per-
sonal matters can be attended to
later; and often are!
Scolding the culprit may help a
little. Only, the precedent has been
established. And like most prece-
dents, it's likely to be followed the
next rainy day. So, the only thing to
do is wrap up warmly and 60 out
walking, rain or no rain, with the
dog. The object is to keep him ex-
ercising until satisfactory arrange

shadows are better than one-conse-

New Toilet Water
And Bath Powder.
Just the other day we were de-
lighted to find out that one of the
loveliest perfumes has toilet wa
ter and busting powder in the same
fragrance. This always seems q
grand idea, for if you like the fra
GRANGE it's JOY to be able to

The items are both attractively
packaged; the toilet water in a
smart bottle with rounded cap that
CLEANS like FURNISHED copper; the
powder in an ivory box topped by
a lacquer-red honey bee. Due to re-
quests by women who have loved
the fragrance of the perfume the
firm decided-and wisely-to intro
duce these new products. One look
at them and what is more impor-
tant, one sniff, and you'll agree
that they have made no mistake.
Although we've spoken of the
item before, we can't resist the
chance to remind you of a grand
new foundation cream. Women are
going wild about it, for it lasts all
day long, and while it goes into
your skin evenly and smoothly it
still provides base that covers
up any tiny lines and blemishes
you might have. Scented with a
very expensive fragrance and priced
so low you'll be positively startled,
this base will last Indefinitely. The
reason we say so Is because we
know a girl who's been using her
jar since the beginning of June and
has hardly made dent in it! It's
really perfect for any skin and
makes your cream rouge fairly melt
into the natural color of your COM
plexion.

While we were on the track of
new items the other day we came

lion mainly, due to the support
derived from local business and pro-
fessional men and women, the
Chamber of Commerce, through its
committees on agriculture and to-
oacco, as we'll as through the fact
that full time secretary is also sup

Ket, works in closest cooperation
with those who live in the county,
reaching out in all directions TO
those who look to Henderson as
their trading center, making the

Of much benefit to merchant
