Bv PATRICIA LINDSAY,

Dy T n n1SlA L1NDSAxs
Once you are the thrilled parent
Of new infant. you are more than
likely to require special attention In
several ways.
Your skin is not as lovely as before
your teeth and nails seem to be caus-
ing you no end of trouble. and your
hair lacks the sheen it should boast
of and is probably falling out.
You could tolerate all these annoy
ances but what truly annoys you is
your clumsiness. You can't get
around as sprightly as before. and
whenever you look at your wardrobe
you yearn to buy an entirely fresh
one!
According to the best advices of
physicians-you must, first of all
take it easy. Spend three weeks in
bed and then wait three months be-
fore you go in for an active life or
strenuous exercise. Only the IA
nous "knee-chest" exercise is per-
mitted you. and you may begin that
the first of the second week while
you are still in bed. That does Won
ders to strengthen your abdominal
muscles and to put you back in
shape. When you do get up buy
yourself nicely fitting undergar-
ment which gives you proper sup
port. Such a garment must be fitted
to you in the store, for seldom can
you buy one which does not need
some alteration.
With the new baby to care for
you will not have too many hours to
spend on beautifying yourself. But
there are a few things which you
should do directly after getting up
from bed.
Eat of the menu the doctor pre-
scribes, which should be sufficient in
proper vitamins to nourish your
teeth, hair and skin. Plenty of milk,
fresh vegetables. fresh and cooked
fruits, lean meats and natural
sweets (not candy.
Each day you must cream your
face we'll for cleansing, refresh it
with mild skin tonic and lubricate
1t If it is dry. Once week you
should either get a thorough recon-
ditioning facial or give yourself one
Send for my leaflet on "Recondi-
tioning Tired and Neglected HAIR
or buy yourself a course of treat
ments at one of the leading, reliable
hair salons. If you have special
hair problem, write me about it, and
I shall try to help you.
When it is time to exercise, begin
with swimming movements-or be-
gin with actually swimming. Such
movements are excellent for you
And as energy permits begin walking
in comfortable walking shoes and in
a good supporting undergarment.
Above all. remember this-that a
sensible routine begun soon after
the birth of your child will preserve
your youth. Include exercises to
firm your pectoral muscles when
nursing has ceased, and keep in mind
that there is no reason why you can
not be a beautiful woman as we'll as
an efficient mother!
If you will write Miss Lindsay
about your young mother prob
lem she will try to help you. You
must inclose q self addressed en-
velope bearing q 3-cent stamp.

er foundation around them (going
light on the eye shadow and rely
ing chiefly on mascara to outline
the eyes themselves).
Or suppose you fancy your nose is
too wide.
You can make it look high-bridged
and naughty by drawing a line down
the middle with the lighter founda-
ton and using the darker founda-
ton on the sides.
II you want to make a square or
round face more oval, you blot out
the lower part of the cheeks with the
darker foundation.
They do say that Dietrich, herself
does this to get that interesting
high-cheekboned effect.
And a double chin can be washed
out by means of the darker founda-
tion so that even in profile 1t can
scarcely be detected.
While light foundation will bring
receding chin forward.
For wrinkles. match the wrinkle
shadows with a darkish foundation
that has the same result as soft
lights OF giving beautifully smooth
effect.
OF course. always you blend the
edges of the various foundations very
carefully so that they melt into one
another.

CHAPTER TWENTY THREE.
Common sense indicates that tall
figures should wear the hair low
while short figures should pile il
high.
To such elementary principles, we
add few fine points.
For long-busted figure, sweep
the hair forward from the back OF
the head because pompadour
would continue and accentuate the
too full curve of the breasts.
For f1at-chested or dropping fig
ure, do the reverse. drawing the
hair of the face and piling it high
at the back of the head.
Modelling the
Face.
HOLLYWOOD started this as a purely
professional technique.
But lately beauty people have
been recommending it for women
in private life.
A study of this technique ex-
plains how certain of the movie
stars manage to look so perfect on
the screen and go about unrecog-
nized on the street.
Margaret SULLIVAN, in a recent
interview, said frankly she couldn t
get over the job makeup artists
did on her in Hollywood.
We once watched one of them
at work and he told all-how you
wash out a double chin, lines,
anything. It's all done with diff
ferent shades of powder founda-
ton.
They do it more crudely on the
stage with greasepaint. where they
have to exaggerate everything be-
cause of the footlights. But the
principle is the same.
You use lighter foundation to
bring a feature forward or a dark
er foundation to sink it.

By ANGELO PATRI.

High school boys and girls. and
those of the first college years, are
people in their own right, and not
to be thought of in terms of in
fancy. The most difficult adjust
ment parents have to make is con-
cerned with this bald fact. The
children have grown up while their
parents were not looking; conse-
quently they continue to think Of
them and to manage them as they
did when they were helpless in
fants.
Mother. where is my old green
sweater? Do you know? I had it in
the bottom drawer, but I can't seem
to find it."

old sweater. I gave it to your cousin.

after school,

Sister is II. She has a boy friend
with whom she likes to 60 out occa-
sionally. She has planned to go

stay in with little Peter while she
went down to see her mother this
afternoon. She hasn't had a chance

wouldn't mind helping her.

is Friday afternoon. and you know

can go. John will feel that I stood
him up. and I'm so disappointed"
II forgot. You'll have lots of Fri
days. 1t won't hurt you for once to
think of somebody else"
Perhaps Sister is thinking that it
wouldn't have hurt mother to have
taken a little thought about her be-
fore giving away her only free after
noon. But this often happens in ways
not so apparent always. but Just as
hard for the young people to bear
gracefully.
Parents make engagements for
their children. offer their services.
use their belongings. make decisions
for them. mortgage their time. even
their future, without consulting
them. No good comes of it. The
children are patient as long as pos
sible and finally they rebel-secretly,
If they are that way. openly. if they
have the courage and strength.
Why not ask the young people
before making any ARRANGEMENTS
about their belongings, their services
or their time? Why not extend to
them the same consideration yo,,
would extend to grownup person? ?
Of course. these young people are
not grown up. But they are people
in their own right. They are en-
titled to courtesy. politeness and
consideration on that score alone.
And remember. they feel grown up,
| After childhood is past the rela-
tionship between children and par

ing. The name of that relationship

ents and their adolescent children.
and when 1t does; the relationship is
ideal. The way to establish 1t is to
consider the children as people. Ask
them before making decisions for
them. That is their due.

DEAR MISS NOVEL;:
Will you please tell me how often
1t is advisable to use the furniture
polish for which you have given the
recipe several times? Also, does it
matter if more than "a few drops" Of
linseed oil are used in the recipe?
Some people use linseed oil alone as
a furniture polish. Does red maple
furniture need polishing as often as
softer woods?
MRS. H. w. C.
Answer
You may use the furniture polish
I recommended as often as you
please with safety. 1t should al
ways be used as soon as the wood
has the least appearance of dryness,
as it tends to feed the wood and
keep, the surface filled. Linseed oil
alone will darken any light wood
and should not be used unless that
is the result desired. However,
few extra drops will make very little
difference. Harder woods need less
polishing than softer ones. as they
do not absorb the oil as quickly or
completely.
DEAR MISS NOVEL;:
1 have two old chairs that need to
be reupholstered. I had planned to
do the work at home as it does not
seem to be difficult. Is there any kind
of cotton wadding that can get to
lay over the old filling that is worn
and uneven in spots? Should put
the upholstery fabric on over the
cotton?
MRS. B. R. c.
Answer
You may purchase in the uphol-
stery departments of the stores gray
wadding by the yard. In fact, they
will show you several varieties for
this purpose. Sew this in place and
then cover it with thin muslin either
tackled or sewn down. The finish
