By Emily Post

+ Dear Mrs. Post: We want to
give our daughter tea set for a
wedding present and are a little
confused about its marking. My
husbands family has coat of arms
that they have used for many gen.
erations and we would like to use
this on the individual pieces Of the
tea set and the tray as we'll as
my daughters own three initials.
We had intended putting the coat
OF arms on one side and the initials
on the opposite side. Another
thing-will you please tell me how
much Of the coat Of arms should
be used?
Answer: You know, of course.
that correctly her silver should be
marked only with lozenge. But
there is no good reason that I can
see why any one would criticize a
custom that good usage has long
permitted here in America-even
though the Heralds' College would
not! A lozenge, I agree, is hideous
and new silver from the brides
family marked with her fathers
coat of arms Is something that
countless American brides have had
and their families enjoyed. So I
can't feel 1t necessary to say no"
But would suggest that the crest
alone be used or, at most, the crest
and motto. On no account, the
coat of arms. It would be best

inspiration from the Latin American
countries this season. It's a faSci-
mating idea-and a quick, easy route
to perfect ensembling from top to
toe.
Not to be overlooked in planning
spring beauty aids are those de-
signed expressly for the younger set
This year the sub-deb has new
rouge and lipstick all her own, al
though we're sure number of older
women are going to adopt it, too
The interesting part about it is that
when you buy the rouge and lip
stick they give you a little clip
shaped like lapel watch. This is
made of a clear red plastic material
and the box of rouge and the lip
stick are slipped right into the
gadget. In this way they are hooked
together and easy to find, in ever
the most overcrowded handbag
Many girls will find this new ar
rangement perfect for carrying in
the pocket of sweaters or suits, fol
it's an efficient way to make sure you
have the proper makeup at al
times. AS long as the limited supply
of these cosmetic clips last you may
have one when you purchase rouge
and lipstick. Nice idea?

takes this opportunity to present
special offerings on two of their best
known items, and, what's more, they
send this expert along to give some
valuable advice on skin care.
The really important news con-
nected with her visit is the an
nouncement that the special make
up base for which the firm is famous
is being featured at an almost unbe-
lievable saving This is really a
super cream, giving smooth, dewy
look to the skin and hiding those
minor imperfections, such as fatigue
lines, large pores and other trouble
some defects. Usually it's quite ex-
pensive, which is why so many
women find this week the perfect
time to stock up. You can use 1t as
a night cream, too!
AS if that isn't enough. the firm is
also making a wonderful offer on
their face powder. They blend a
number of shades scientifically to
suit your complexion, you know, and
keep the formula carefully filed
away on card, so you're always sure
of having a powder that really suits
your skin tone You don't blame us
for being pleased about the visit OF
this consultant, do you?
The young lady pictured in THAT
HAT is holding new kind of cos
metic that is really causing some
talk around town. It's a liquid with
a rich, bronze-like glow, actually a
foundation lotion that gives warmth
and color to the skin. This prepara-
ton seems to provide silky surface
to the face, and you may use either
one or two coats, depending upon
how much of a coppery glow is
desired.
With this lotion is worn a new
liquid rouge, designed to give the
effect of smooth, cleaning skin,
rather than any appearance of a
rouged complexion. And when you
complement this new makeup with
special eye shadow, vivid lipstick and
nail enamel you have makeup
that is nothing short of breath
taking.
The whole idea behind this inno-
vation is that the creator of it is one
of the Color Afiliates whose fashions
are completely co-ordinated in color.
In other words, this group of de-
signers gets together and decides on
seven major colors for spring, max
ing them into fabrics, hats, shoes,
gloves, bags and, as we have men,
toned, cosmetics. So the new tone
of foundation and liquid rouge Is
expressly made to be worn with the
new fashion colors which take their

pie seem to have minds that are
perfect pools of iniquity. Apparent
ly they have no belief in any decent
human impulses or any faith in any
man or woman having any nobility
Of soul or any high principles.
A jealous husband does not be-
lieve that his wife is virtuous or
loyal, no matter how many years
he has seen her walk the straight
and narrow path, nor what evi-
dence she has given Of the purity
of her character. He suspects her
not only of being unfaithful to him,
but of indulging in the lowest orgies,
Nor does the jealous wife believe
1t possible for her husband to have
a sense of honor or to be faithful
to her.
Foolish people have said that
jealousy is a proof of love. 1t is
quite the contrary. 1t is the great
est insult that can be offered to
love, because it shows that you
do not trust the one you profess
to love. Also jealousy is first aid
to philandering, because after being
fed up on his wife's false accusa-
tions until he Is weary of them
many man starts out to justify
them.
There are few things In the world
that cause so much sorrow and so
many heartaches as jealousy, but
there is no known cure for it.

we're trying to shock you INTO a
realization that there's no moral
difference between stealing towel
from a hotel or Pullman car, and
stealing one from the counter OF a
department store.
If you're confirmed souvenir COL
lector, you'll probably scof at this
statement. You'll point out that the
things you take are of little real
value. Perhaps that individual arti-
Gle you lift didn't cost much. But
the losses of hotels, railroads, res
taurants, night clubs and similar
places because of the public's pilfer-
ing total hundreds of thousands Of
dollars every year.
Let us give you a few examples
A few years ago a well-known COL
lege football team was playing an
important game in big city, and
staying at a world-famous hotel.
One or two of the players decided
to take home towels marked with
the hotels name as souvenirs. The
idea caught on, and finally the
crowd of boys got into linen closet
and literally loaded their luggage
with towels, sheets, pillowcases, and
even blankets. AS a result of this
little escapade the college got a
bill from the hotel that made the
athletic treasurer vince. 1t also got
black eye from which 1t has not
yet fully recovered.
And maybe you have complained
about the poor quality of the pic
lures that decorate many hotel bed
rooms. The reason they are cheap
and unattractive is that If they
were any good the public would steal
them. The authority for that state
ment is the manager Of one of Chi
cago's largest hotels, with whom we
discussed this stealing problem some
time ago.
But hotels aren't the only victims.
Can you imagine respectable Ameri-
can citizens stealing from their
Presidents home? Well, at some of
the large public functions held at
the White House in connection with
the Inauguration ceremonies last
January, visitors noticed that the
table silver was very plain and in
expensive. The reason? Because in
variably after such functions a con-
siderable quantity of the silver is
missing!
A common justification of the
souvenir collector is that hotels and
night clubs charge you plenty, so
why shouldn't you get some of it
back by walking off with cream
pitcher or sugar tongs? There are
two answers to that one.
First, if you think place is over
charging you, you don't need to &c
there; if you do 60. you certainly
have no right to steal its property.
Second. one reason for the high
charges tn these places y the Losses

pretty girl on the SCreeC WITHOUT
having their wives make scenes
about 1t.
And these men and women who
are the victims Of their jealous
wives and husbands ask what they
can do about it, and If there Is any
cure for jealousy. To which one
must answer sadly, no. For Jealousy
Is madness that needs no excuse for
existing, and it curses equally those
who are afflicted with it and those
who are made to suffer from their
evil passion.
II jealousy could be analyzed, 1t
would be found to be made up OF
equal parts of poSseSsiveness, OF an
inferiority complex, and of all the
baser instincts of the human ami
NAL. 1t is founded on the selfish
desire of one individual to own an
other, body and soul, and to sepa-
rate that one from all other con-
facts.
The wife of the jealous man must
give up her family and her friends
for him and find no pleasure in any
society but his. The husband OF
the Jealous wife must let her mo-
nopolize him so that he has not an
interest or a thought that is not
centered in her. And neither the
Jealous husband nor wife gives a
thought to the happiness or desires
of those whom they are sacrificing
so ruthlessly to their own egotism.
Jealousy is the bitter fruit of an
inferiority complex, because 1T is
the open confession of lovers, or hus-
bands and wives that they do not
consider themselves as attractive
as even the common mill run Of men
and women, and are afraid to be
brought in competition with them.
The boy who is so jealous he
will not let his girl friend dance
with another lad at a party is
afraid to have her contrast his
clumsiness with the skill and
smoothness of a good partner.
The jealous husband who glowers
at his wife if ne sees her entertained
and amused by her dinner partner
is secretly burned up by the knowl-
edge that he is poor talker. The
Jealous wife who cannot endure
for her husband even to look at
another woman knows that she lacks
beauty and chic and feminine charm
1t is the fear of themselves that
makes men and women jealous.
But the strangest thing of all
about jealousy is that jealous peo-

a hotel or restaurant, you aren't
really stealing from the owner
You're stealing from the other pa
irons.
We could overlook most Of the
comparatively innocent souvenir col
lecting of young people if we didn't
know that since you've acquired the
habit you're likely to keep it. The
experience of the Pullman Co., the
hotels and the night clubs proves
that fact, because most of their pa
irons are supposedly responsible
adults and not high school or col
lege students out for a time.
Frankly, we've stood awed in
amazement while we examined q
fraternity house bedroom containing
a collection of signs including every
thing from Quiet is requested for
the benefit Of those who have re-
tired" to "Danger-men at work, u
Park behind here" and warning
dynamite" Nevertheless, the fact
remains that those signs cost some
body money, that they were some
bodys property, and that their pres
ent possessor stole them.
And even if you could convince
yourself that sealing souvenirs isn't
really dishonest. you couldn't get
away from the fact that it's def
nitely small-time. It's the hick coll
lege that boasts the biggest sign COL
lections. It's the day coach rider
who sees something desirable in a
Pullman car towel. It's the callow
kid who hasn't been around who
must prove he's been to the Hotel
Hoity- -Toity by exhibiting one Of Its
ash trays.
We hope you get the idea.

For those Of you who complain
that there are too many generaEtiea
in books or articles dealing with

products, in their relation to the
housewives needs, there is q new
book, just published today by Robert
M. Mcbride & Co., which prints
names and facts in no uncertain
terms. Look Before You Cook"
written by Rose and Bob Brown,
with the assistance of the Consum-
erS' Union, minces no words in
setting plain truths before the
average American woman. 1t is a
handbook Of facts which may make
certain commercial firms squirm a
bit. for it gives no quarter whers
1t feels none is indicated.
The title is somewhat misleading,
for the Browns, while devoting the
flrSt part Of the book to a group
OF simple, basic recipes embracing
various culinary fields, really make
1t treatise on general housekeeping.
The latter section is given over to
a discussion of canned goods. in
cluding the sizes of cans, the relative
merits OF different brands of soups,
beans, fish, etc, chapter on grade
labelling, a list of government pub
locations on food, a group Of food
fallacieS, and thorough debunking
OF same. A buying guide takes
the = reader right "backstage" into
the commercial world, and shows in
black and white figures the stand
ing Of number of household ne
ceSSities, from foods to securing
powders, metal polishes, electrical
appliances, and miscellaneous ac-
cessories and equipment
