Dear Miss NOVEL;: planted
some bulbs just before Christmas
for indoor blooming. I find they
seem to be growing very fast. with
plenty Of leaves but no sign of
flowers. Were these poor bulbs?
D. B.
Answer-You do not mention the
variety Of bulbs+but most OF them
should be started in a COOL, dark
place so that roots become estab-
lished before top growth starts.
Yours may have had too much
light and warmth. Suggest you re-
tard these by placing them in a
dark, cool place and II you are
starting new ones keep them in the
dark at least three weeks. In this
way the buds will keep up with
the leaf growth.

bathing and washing with soap and
water, good dietary habits, ade-
quate and regular elimination, daily
fresh air, exercise and suficient
rest. Immediately we become
apostles Of the creed which pro-
claims. Beauty OF skin comes from
intelligent observance Of the laws Of
health"
Soon We meet q teen-age young
ster whose skin Is dull and muddy,
marked by ugly blotches. We i'm
part to her our secret Of skin health.
She admits too many chocolate sun
daes, too little sleep, sketchy washing
and recent adoption of face powder.
She recalls her skin troubles began
when she substituted her own ideas
OF personal care for those taught
by her mother. Eagerly she follows
our advice and as she returns to
good general health practices, her
skin improves.
With increased confidence, we re-
peat our magic formula to another
adolescent. He looks at us skepti-
caly and assures us he has no hab-
Its to change. He has always lived
as we advise. We search hurriedly
through our knowledge of physiology
and drag out this classic bit, Don't
worry, don't pick at your skin, con-
tinue with daily soap and water
cleansing, You're simply passing
through a phase, During adoles-
cence our bodies have so many
changes to make that for a time
they often fail to adjust and one
OF the results is skin eruption
similar to yours"
Well, he keeps on with the magic
formula, but he can't stop worry
ing; he can't keep his hands away
from the eruptions. Finally, we
persuade him to see the family doc
tor.
The doctor examines the boy and
finds an abscessed tooth. He ex-
plains that such infections hidden
IN various parts of the body often
reveal themselves by skin blemishes.
He continues, saying that sometimes
a skin disorder can be cured by en-
docrine therapy: again treatment
consists Of allergy study to deter
mine what specific food or foods
may be the cause. On occasion. x
ray therapy Is effect1lal

house plants do not thrive In the
temperatures that We enjoy. They
may need some plant food to give
them a new lease on life It may
be that some Of them are. past their
blooming period and will need three
or four months before they pick
up again. I would suggest you drop
in to see the florist who sold you
the plants for individual advice on
the different varieties. Some may
yked to be cut back, others may
need food. etc You might buy a
few artificial flowers. such as gera-
mum blossoms, and tuck them in
for effect. Also, artificial or real
narcissus or daffodils will help over
the next few months until the real
blooms start again. Be sure to use
the blooms with their corresponding
foliage. Don't pin rosebuds on the
ivy!
Dear Miss NOVEL;: wish to build
in closets across one side OF my Nv
ing room so that I can store clothes,
linen and almost everything else in
this one-room apartment. I know
that it will be difncult to get car
penter work done. but I do not wish
to use a drapery II any other ar
rangement can be worked out. Have
you any suggestions Of what may be
done to accomplish this plan without
too much installation and at the
same time not too much Of a make
shift impression?-Mrs. E. c.
AnsWer-The answer to your
prayer would be the folding doors
that look like an diversified ac-
Gordon. These come in various
stock sizes and have no installation
difficulties. You would need only q
wood valance to trim them at the
ceiling line. They are usually COW
