We, all like to get something for
nothing, but that experience is as
rare as a pretty knee We usually
have to fight, diet or cry for what
we get.
My nine-day reducing diet is the
nearest thing to something for noth-
: wisn .wfs 1stle deprivation, nd
fatigue and certainly no real hun
ger you lose from to 10 pounds,
and all in nine days. Due to the
diets heavy protein intake and its
vitamin and mineral potency, feel
sure that you will feel an upsurge
of energy and well-being while you
are on this diet.
MENUS FOR THE SIXTH DAY:
BREAKFAST.
One-half grapefruit.
One slice thin, dry, whole wheat
toast.
Coffee.
LUNCHEON.
Two lamb chops Qeave of fat).
Sliced tomatoes.
One glass SKINNED milk.
DINNER.
Good helping of liver.
Stewed tomatoes.
Ten stalks of asparagus.
Two fresh apricots. slice Of
fresh pineapple, one-haf grapefruit
or an apple.
1t may be that some OF the items
on the nine-day diet menus are ex-
tremely distasteful TO you. For that
reason I have prepared lists of
fruits and vegetables which, If
taken in the amounts given, can be
substituted for the fruits and vege-
tables given on the prescribed nine
day diet.
VEGETABLES.
Asparagus, 10 stalks.
Lima beans, Il cup.
Green beans, scant cup.
Beets, two, Pinch diameter.
Cabbage, scant cup.
Carrots, young ones.

both day and evening. Innings OF
coats and suits never were more i'm
portants, and, we think, they will
continue to make news. Watch for
fur-lined sport topcoatS, fur capes,
coats with brightly colored Innings
and turned-back cuffs, and such
WITNESSES as jackets OF black wool
lined with gold lame for afternoon
or Innings which repeat the fabric
of suit blouse.
4. We believe in lots of jewelry-
the real thing if you have it, an ex-
cellent reproduction If you haven't.
Diamonds are everywhere, more
often than not combined with col
ored stones and done in sets con-
sisting of bracelet. pin and earrings
or sometimes a fabulous necklace.
The use of a diamond clip at the
point of a low V-neckline Is unbe-
lievably effective; small diamond
and topaz clips worn on the back
of your belt for evening are new
and casually luxurious.
5. There is, most observers agree,
sure to be a deluge of 'under-the-
chin interest in jabots, large bows
and other frou frou. Fluffy feather
jabots to adorn dinner dresses: lace
ones to give a frilly daintiness to
suits. Everywhere an interest In
muffs seems to assure their place
in this seasons fashion picture.
Huge fur ones for daytime are love-
ly-try a red fox one with green
wool suit. Great feather mufis for
evening seem to be about 2 feet
square; tiny round ones that look
like those your grandmother used
to carry are charming with match
ing feather pillboXeS for dinner
wear. You can use muff to set
off a complete ensemble, varying it
by attaching fantastic birds or love-
ly pins to harmonic with your cos
tune. Colored gloves for evening
are here in profusion-you'll wear
long ones in brilliant purple or deep
wine, perhaps, or choose satin ones
dyed to the exact shade of your
dinner gown SO that they look like
a continuation Of the sleeve.
6. Hats, we believe, will be either
tiny tilted models with snoods or
back yelling, turbans draped with
wimples or small models set well
back on the head and featuring
back drapery and other treatment.
So far the draped wimple hat Is all
over town and in every price range,
which may cause its demise long
before its time. Bags seem to be
quite large and often trimmed with
an extravagant lucite frame,
adorned with large hunk Of Jew
elry or otherwise distinguished to
follow out the luxury theme.

Stocking Care

We all know how important it is
to wash stockings after every wear
ing so as to remove perspiration
quickly from the delicate silk or
nylon f1bers. 1t is just a matter of
a few minutes for each woman in a
family to swish her stockings
through lukewarm suds at the end
of the day, but in some families the
girls take nightly turns at doing the
stockings for all the members of the
family.

and amazing detail to look for such
prosaic things as the length of a
skirt or the tilt of hat Presented
in their Paris-like settings, with
soft music, glamorous-that's the
only word-models and deftly placed
lights, and given added excitement
by the popping of flashlight bulbs
and the all-wise comments of the
magazine and newspaper girls, they
have a different meaning than when
reviewed mentally in the clear light
of q Washington morning.
When, at last, one is able to forget
for a moment the drama of these
new clothes, they seem less forbid
ding and more influential on the
wardrobes that such ordinary folks
as you and will own. And, at the
risk OF being completely on the
wrong track, here are the things
that we think will linger long after
the originals have made their grand
entrances, to bloom for one or two
occasions and then disappear into
the mists of the secondhand clothes
world.
/. We believe that daytime dresses
will remain about the same in
length, with skirts a bit simmer
than usual and hiplines low and
often draped. Shoulders will not be
entirely au naturel, but will have
padding that follows a creditable
line without too much exaggeration.
Suits will be more terrific than
ever, but more of them will return
to shorter jackets because they are
easier to wear than the very long
types. We believe in the always
good quality of black for daytime,
but think it will be spiced with color
accents and that the return of the
brightly colored afternoon frock is
not as far off as one might imagine.
2. The draped dinner dress or
dinner suit with jacket seems very,
very important. 1t will be nodded,
and more often than not 1t will be
black. Plenty of sequin trim seems
to be assured, lending glitter to
this simple style. We think, too,
that you'll be wearing adorable lit
tie evening hats with dinner suits
most of them titled forward and
trimmed with feathers and wells.
Undoubtedly, lace is one of the most
outstanding fabrics, although you'll
see plenty of velvets, satins and bro
cades. This writer believes in the
plunging neckline dinner dress, the
bare midriff gown and the nude
look" of black lace or chiffon over
flesh -colored fabrics. There should
be quantities of embroidered wool
coats and capes for evening-in
bright, lovely shades.

I would like the pleasure Of >having
the new, more gracefully shaped
knives and forks that are more fash
ionable. What do you advise?
K. L.
Answer-Making me referee be-
tween husband and wife puts me in
a very precarious position! But here
goes-and why. I would stick to the
old pattern, increasing it up to your
needs because you will have COM
plete service then, and be able to
set your table to your satisfaction
each time. If you buy new you will
be getting along for another Is

Dear Miss NOVEL;: have made a
pair of love seats to be used in front
of my fireplace out OF the upholster-
ed back and seat of an old station
wagon. The only thing wrong with
them is that several of the springs
are loose and stick up above the
others. Before I slipcover the seat
I would like to know how to remedy
this. G. F.. E.
Answer-The springs probably
need relying. An upholsterer can do
this for you-and it might be worth
the investment to have him go over
them thoroughly and put them all
in condition for you. If you intend
doing it yourself, take the covering
off the under part of the seat, as
well as the upper, remove all the
padding and hair. This will dis
close the broken strings which tie
the springs to the foundation. Retie
these in place following the method
used on the good ones. Then replace
the hair and padding. I would sug-
gest a little new padding and a
blanket pad to give you a smooth,
new surface. Cover it in muslin and
you are ready for the slip cover.

Helpful Hint

Many housewives have found an
ideal way to deal with insect pests
that infest such things as window
plants. They use an ordinary per-
fume atomizer of the less expensive
variety. Because it looks attractive,
it can be kept on any convenient
shelf. Filled with the proper nico-
tine extract or pyrethrum solution
a few squeezes Of the bulb will DO
away with the pests quick as q
wink.

She Still Poses

Although Elyse Knox is well on
the way to stardom, she is one
actress who refuses to forsake the
stepping stone which brought her
screen notice.
A leading photographers model IN
New York before coming to Holly
wood, Elyse is still one of the Ma
tion's top magazine cover girls. Many

comedy, Hay Foot" in which she
is appearing. got their early train
ing as advertising and cover mod
els. But as soon as films beckoned
them. they gave up their former
careers in favor of the screen.
But modelling, she believes, is still
the best training school for an ac-
tress, and even film stars can bene-
fit from return to their proving
grounds. The demands of model
ing are so varied and so strict that
it keeps a girl constantly on her
toes if she wants to be in the swim
Elyse knows the dangers of be-
coming lax in poise, posture and
chic, and her best insurance, she
is convinced, is to continue to sub
NIT to the rigors and discipline Of
modelling.

the individual physician. One of
these, as | said. about which there
can be no argument, is tubercu-
loSiS.
Another may be acute rheu-
matte fever, sometimes called IN
fiammatory rheumatism" This
disease does far more damage
than l~nfantile paralysis and ten
other diseases that such a fuss is
made over. It's danger lies in the
fact not that it affects the Joints,
but that it affects the heart.
Probably thrce-quartcrs of the
heart cripples under 40 years are
that way because they are victims
Of acute rheumatism.
Crippled Hearts
The disease is insidious in it's
progress. A child may be stricken
with fever and pain in the joints.
Treatment of the immediate
symptoms is simple and satisfac-
tory. The use of some form of the
salicylates usually relieves the
acute condition within a week. To
all apparent purposes and eve
on careful examination, the child
seems to be perfectly well; pain,
swelling and redness are gone
from the joints, and no signs are
in the heart, but in the majority
of eases, the damage has been
done and as the years go by, it
becomes evident that there was
some residual trouble left in the
heart, which finally causes Grip
ping disability.
If all patients with acute rheu-
matte fever were made to rest for
a long period, much Of this heart
trouble could be prevented. Such
a period of rest is easy to arrange
for in a household where there is
somebody who can take care of
the child, keep it in bed and amuse
1t, and whore nourishing food is
plentiful. Ideally, a child with one
attack of acute rheumatic fever
should be removed to a warm
climate for an indefinite period in
order to prevent r%ccurrent at
tacks.
All this means that the under
privileged child has to take his
