Your discomfort begins with your
self in your talking too much of
your own business and listening
to idle gossip. You will always hear
something unpleasant when you
lend your ear to this sort of con-
versation. When someone else tells
you something about your husband,
very graciously tell them that you
do not want to hear it. Have a lit
tie faith in your love and what
your husband says. This will climb
mountains for you. Lots of luck.

Stylish Ears
Are A Help
Says Jameson
BY HELEN JAMESON
distributed by King Features
Syndicate Inc.)

Some years ago Viennese special
list made statement which may or
may not be true, but which is in
teresting. He said that because of
the noise of cities-radios blaring,
traffic footing, trains rumbling-hu-
man ears are getting bigger. No tell
ing, he added, what great Happy
auricles We'll be Juggling around on
the sides of Our head as civilization
gets shriekier. Before his time
somebody was always predicting
that the human race is going to
be as hairless as a Mexican dog.
If both these gentlemen are right.
beauty is going to get terrible
smack in the eye. 1t is not pretty
picture we are painting. We trust,
for the sake of our peace of mind,
you will not visualize your descen-
dants wearing no hair whatsoever
and having overdeveloped sound re-
ceiverS. 1t is too painful a thought.
At present time ears are out in
the open. During the period of the
pigtail, large, ugly ears could be
curtained that was an advantage.
Now you just bear with them. Or
adroitly pull a ringlet over the area,
let it go at that.
The plastic surgeon can correct
outstanding ears, but these days he
is busy administering to wounded
soldiers He can, we have heard tell,
bob large 1obes, but that would
seem pretty serious step for any
woman to take.
A touch of rouge makes ear lobes
look gay and cheerful If you tint
your cheeks, be sure to tint your
listeners When the human coun-
tenance carries a natural blush, ear
lobes are flushed, and natural eff
fects are the high cry now. Of
course, they should be powdered
whenever the fluff stuff is applied
to the complexion. Shining ears,
like beaming noses, are no beauty
bargains. And this seems a good
place to remark that neckS also
should be powdered Powder pro-
tects the skin. Used only on the
face the neck is likely to be seve-
raj shades darker.
Hea1y earrings should not be
worn without support passing over
the ears. LObes are soft tissues;
pendants drag them down. Once
down, they haven't a snappy come
back. They stay dragged, get drag
gier.
Thin girls shold not wear long,
thin earrings; doesn't make sense
because it makes the face look thin
ner and longer.
When applying cream to the COM
plexion, special attention must be
given to the flesh just in front of
the ears. The first wrinkles may ap-
pear in that area and, by keeping
the tissues fabricated, one is likely
to stave them off.

the matter up with Secretary
