MereIe Oberon, says that in order to look her best this fall she took 8 pencil and paper and planned her makeup as carefully as she chose her raiment.
 q came to New York to select a wardrobe" said the fashion con- scious star, land before I finished, had to sit down and figure out a cosmetics collection for my dressing table.
 wen all have to watch our P's and Q's, I guess, to avoid getting mixed Up. The shops have taken on the look of an autumn grove, there are so many brilliantly -hued new clothes in them now. And make up is keeping right up with clothes in variety and subtlety of shades. That's fortunate - but 1t calls for thought, tool"
 One of the newest beauty fash- ions is makeup to give you a sub dued face contrasting with bright garments.
 "Still, I wouldn't wear rust or maroon-tinted lipStick and nail po- fish with bright red coat" Miss Oberon observed. T got some clear red. shall wear 1t also with black dresses and with blue one.
 MAKING MAKEUP

 T bought rustshaded Npstick and rouge, though, to go with green, brown and that new nugget gold. And one 1ipstick with an orange cast, to wear with brown sports clothes"
 Putting thought on the matter of coloring your face to go with your costume is nothing new with Miss Oberon. She got lot of practice at it while she made her forthcom- ing picture, Lydia" For her role is that of a Back Bay" beauty of the early 10O0's, when Boston was even more proper than at present- or could that be?
 'The very best way to make clothes and cosmetics f1atter you is to try them on together" Miss Obe- ron suggested. For that, it's worth while to make a special trip, in your favorite new costume, to 6 makeup bar or beauty salon."
 However, Miss Oberon has a mind of her own, and uses 1t in adapting fashion to her own taste. For in- stance, when asked to pass on any little beauty secret she values per- sonally, she laughed and said. T still apply dry rouge after my face powder-cream rouge. before"

job demands . complete balanced diet.
 The average business man needs only 2000 to 2400 calorieS day, but the nervous energy spent on his job destroys the body tissues as would muscular labor and they have to be replenished with food, partic- ulariy the complete proteins found in meat, fowl and fish. Thus, even an office worker can use meat once or twice day as part of a well-bal- enced diet.
 Here is a typical menu for 8 @business man" family:
 BREAKFAST: Grapefruit juice, ham. scrambled eggs, orange mar malade, whole-wheat toast, coffee, milk.
 LUNCH: Cold sliced meat loaf, nodded fruit salad, bran banana

 Nicotinic Acid
 Have been taking two nicotine acid tablets daily for several months along with ribofiavin and haliver oil. Recently notice red flushing of the skin and a heated sensation to touch. (S. K. E.)
 Answer-Nicotinic acid. sometimes causes that reaction, less likely if taken atfer meals. In any circunn- stance I think the entire natural vi- tarnin B complex (which of course includes these and several other en- tities) is preferable to any one or more of the pure entities.

OLD TIMERS PLEASE NOTICE

OLD TIMERS PLEASE NOTICE
 My daughter had trouble with one eye last December, awoke one morn ing and could not see out of the eye (writeS a reader). She went to a specialist and he gave her treat mentS. The specialist also ordered her to have nine teeth pulled-she had no trouble with her teeth but an X-ray film showed that nine must be extracted, as they were ab- scessed. The specialist said that would help her eye.
 The specialist was little too posi- tive about that, if the reader quotes the specialist correctly. It is a way too many old timers In the spe- cialist racket have. An honest doc- tor might express the hope or even the opinion that by the sacrifice of nine of the young woman's teeth somehow the septic focus respon- sible for the trouble in the eye might be eradicated and then the eye trouble might be relieved. But to assert unequiyocally that extract ing the teeth would help the eye trouble was plainly a bit of quack- cry which cannot be justified. No matter how good a doctor is nor how eminent or "well-known," Q specialist, he simply does not know whether extraction of one or more teeth will bring about any mate rial benefit in such cases of pre- sumptive focal infection. That sort of wholesale extraction of teeth, on the fiimSy evidence of an x-ray film, has robbed multitude of vic- tiIns of perfectly useful teeth and it has brought the principle (not theory) of focal infection to low re- pute-and it hasn't helped the re-. putation. of dentists who 1neekly yank the teeeth on the "order" of the bumptious naedico.
 But now, (continues the reader) 8 white growth has come over the eye, and the doctor says 1t will nev- CT be any better. She can see a little out of it but that's all.
 Now the doctor says her tonsilS are very bad and should be taken out. He says the diathermy ineth-I cd will not remove them, they are, too bad for that C6rs. K. O.
 Again the doctor nisleads his patient. To say tonsils can be re- moved by the old Spanish method (guillotine and snare) but cannot | be removed by diathermy merely betrays the doctors ignorance and unfitness.
 Why remove the tonsils or why treat them at alI2 If it is in the hope that the eye trouble will im- prove if the source of it was a fo- GUS of infection in tonsil and this septic focus is at last disinfected, pasteurized, eradicated, drained or removed, that seems a remote and belated resort now. Hasn't the doc@ tor already advised that the eye trouble will never be any better?
 I would not have referred to this case here but for the obvious cru- dity Of the sacrifice of the young teeth.
 I'd hesitate to give up even one tooth if I had any trouble which might be ascribed to an Aabscesesd''
