HEADACHE Is MERELY A

Although our medical textbooks
still describe this and that drug as
an "antipyretic" (which is our

worthy Of the name would prescribe
or administer medicine to lower
body temperature without first try
ing to ascertain what Is causing the
elevation Of temperature and wheth.

II not dangerous to treat symptoms
without regard to their cause. This
applies to headache too. Especially
when the individual Is subject to
headache or has it frequently.
Some headaches are genuine and
others are not at all what they pur-
port to be. The headache Of mig

Clarifying
Yourself
Va AM m~wA
BY Alicia Hart

"You don't look like anybody else
I've ever seen," Dorothy Lamour
told me.
"1've always" I said, been afraid
Of that"
"No, feminine individuality is as
rare in civilized society as--as a
sarong," she smiled, draping The
Most Beautiful Body in the World
along chaise lounge. More women
would be more attractive If they
stopped trying to be copies Of their
favorite actress or Of the sue
cessful women executive in the next
office .... or of the society leaders
In the Sunday papers.
"It's one thing to admire some
feminine celebrity, but unless you
are exactly her type-same color
ing, same dimensions, weight, height
and so on-in trying to initiate her
you would be likely to lose your own
individuality"
AS she talked I noticed that
through an era Of shoulder-length
hobs, Miss Lamour's thick, glossy,
curly black hair has remained waist
length. She does 1t in a low, heavy,
modernized figure 8 on the nape Of
her neck. She Is slender, but not
painfully thin-stunningly proper
toned, dark-eyed.
AVOID PLAYING
A TYPED" ROLE
"A woman should be the finest
possible edition Of herself" contin-
ued the Singing Beauty of the new
picture "Typhoon." "She should
avoid becoming typed.
1.-THE young picture stars should
not try to look like all the other
picture stars. The business woman
ought to avoid that brittle, even Il
chic, woman executive look. The
housewife ought to be a well-groom-
housewife ought to fight against
looking like a cartoonist,s concep-
ton of a housewife. Mary Smith
ought to be a well groomed, attrac-
tive interesting Mary Smith - not
just type.
Nov, as I said, you don't look like
anybody else I've ever seen. ....."
Miss Lamour, you worry me.

bloused bodice and elongated torso
silhouettes are the freshest news,
with the latter usually referred to
as a tunic type.
Buttons and pockets are the ALL
important trimmings. Helen Cook
man, well-known American designer,
uses as many as 40 tiny buttons on
a double breasted reefer-all Of
them concentrated in the waistline
area across the front. Pockets are
shown in all collections.
BUY COAT BEFORE
REST OF WARDROBE
Twills and other smooth surface
woods are widely used. So are mono
tone tweeds. Navy, black and gray,
in the order named, are color
choices. But royal blue, golden
beige, green, mustard and other
muted yellows are prominently dis
played.
Fundamental principle Of assemb-
ling a spring wardrobe which does
not include suit Is to buy your
coat first, of course. Unless you
can have more than one coat, bet
ter choose a dark or at least a neu-
trail color which can be worn with
a variety Of shades.
BOXY,. STRAIGHT COAT
FOR GENERAL UTILITY
One stylist suggests medium
gray, fitted redingote, a red and
white print dress and black patent
accessories for an Easter ensemble.
It is also advisable to buy a casual
gray-and-white print shirtwaist
dress with bloused bodice, and a
dressier frock in solid color. With
these three and the gray coat, she
says, the wardrobe Is pretty COM
plete.
For the woman who wants a
double-duty coat, a straight-hang-
ing, rather boxy model Of mono
tone navy tweed is recommended.
With a silk dress and a fur scarf,
this is dressy enough for any day
time occasion in town. And, minus
the fur scarf, Is perfect over a
flannel suit or light wool shirt
waister for country week-ends or
daily life in and around g suburb.
