Dorothy Dix Says

Very often you hear a pretty girl
boast that she is a mans woman,
that she can never get along with
women and that she doesn't like
women and that women don't like
her.
I am always sorry for a woman
who Is not popular with her sex,
because it. shows that there is some
thing fine singularly lacking in her
character. She is an outlaw. She
Is traitor to her class. She betrays
her own lodge. Even men are sus-
picious of a woman who doesn't be-
long to the great sisterhood.
And I am sorry for the women
who are fond Of saying that a
woman's best friend is man, and
that II q woman wants favors she
must 60 to man. This is not true.
Men are only fair weather friends
to woman. They stick around only
as long as the sun of her good looks
and youth shine and she is gay and
amusing. But when the rainy days
of sickness and adversely come, they
fade away.
They make their getaway de-
Gently, but they make it. If she is
sick, they will order the florist to
send a bunch Of flowers. If she is
in need, and they happen to be
well of, they will mail her a check
or two. And that ends the episode.
You never hear of man going,

in the majority and we'll direct this
to them. Here's An item that took
trans-Atlannc telephone calling to
achieve the proper blending of q
natural blush shade Of powder for
which American women have been
clamoring for years. The powder is
scented with q perfume known to
many as one OF the most exciting
scents extant. The fragrance is
artfully blended and the extremely
fine texture and "stay-on" quality
make this powder one of the finest
on the beauty scene. The formula
was perfected in Paris and the
muted pink tones are becoming to
blond, brunette, brownette and
red-head alike. You'll like this new
powder that has captured the true
glow of a blush.
MUMMMM! WHAT IS THAT
PERFUME YOU'RE WEARING? If
1t Is the one we shifted several days
ago it's q new odeur that has a dis
tinct charm Of its own. The name
Is as unusual as the perfume-after
the London address of a house that
is well-known for its herb toiletries.
The perfume is clear, fresh and
good for tweeds, fine feathers, and
for use with classic clothes. The
fragrance is also available in toilet
water, busting powder, talcum and
bath essence.

CLEANUP CAMPAIGN: The
modern way-with liquids that are
efficient. new, quick and really
cleanse the. skin. One, a liquid
creme that contains no wax and
quickly spreads over the skin. When
removed, 1t leaves no smudges and
the skin is soft and soothed. And
for the individual who doesn't like
a creme cleanser this same cosmetic
house puts out another liquid. This
is all amber colored affair that Is
made up Of a secret formula so
compounded that it Is nonirritating
nondrying and is dream where
removing lipstick stains is con-
cerned. Young skins require an
extra-efficient cleanser, and this is
1T!
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST: A
tiny bit of a special cream, they say,
used constantly, goes long way for
women over 30. The story Is that
a scientist in Europe many years
ago discovered that certain kinds
of turtles are very long lived and
their skin has amazing powers of
recuperation or renewal. So-o-o-o-
he got the idea that maybe some
thing could be done with the "vivi-

day after day, week after week, to
sit at the bedside of a sick woman
friend and try to brighten her UP
and comfort her. yet untold num-
bers of women lay that sacrificial
offering on the altar of their friend
ship for other women.
When a woman loses her money.
or her job. or her husband, or gets
into any sort Of trouble, her man
friend will write her a beautiful
letter Of sympathy and maybe 60 to
see her a time or two, and he will
feel he should have a medal or
SO for doing it. But let any forlorn
woman get into the habit Of coming
to his Office to weep on his desk and
tell him her endless tale of woe, and
she will find her way barred by an
efficient secretary and be told that
the gentleman is in conference and
can't be disturbed.
Yet thousands upon thousands Of
women offer their shoulders for
their women friends to cry on, and
listen patiently to the stories of
their griefs that they have heard
a hundred times, just because they
know that it comforts the afflicted,
as nothing else does, to talk about
their sorrows to someone who I'M
derstands and sypmathizes with
them.
A man Is good friend to q
woman as long as she can amuse
him and is a jolly companion who
will step out with him in the bright
lights, but when she needs some
one to sit with her in the dark,
some one who will bear with her in
her extremity of suffering. she must
have woman friend, or else she
is left solitary and alone.
The old idea that women are
always at each others Threats and
tearing each other down Is false.
On the contrary. it is women who
boost each other up the ladder. 1t
Is women who got the vote for
women. 1t Is women who opened
the door Of opportunity to women.
1t is women who are behind every
movement to build schools and
colleges and hospitals to better the
life of women and make life easier
for them. And If you say that 1t Is
mostly mems money that made
these philanthropies possible, you
will find that there was almost
always a wife behind the check
book.
So I say again that I am sorry
for the girl who doesn't like
women and who has no women
friends. She has missed one OF
the best things that life can give
her

If keys are not numbered woulc
suggest doing so. Paint entire sur.
face with aluminium paint, to keer
original finish from bleeding.
Second coat should be white semi
gloss or enamel, then after thorough
drying, use burnt lumber, which
comes in tubes flour or five), and
plenty of rags. Rub burnt lumber
on small areas, making it com.
pletely brown, then with second rag,
rub off until desired ivory color is
acquired.
We will be leaving several dozen
wax begonia plants outside to freeze,
If any one is interested. Most of
them were started from seed, and
are not the usual dime store variety.
from Mrs. J. T. j., Arlington.)
If you will prepare the piano wood
as you should any wooden surface
for painting, that is sanding down
the present finish well or removing
it entirely your job will be simple
After the wood is ready for paint
ing apply coats of fiat white paint
allowing each coat to dry thor
oughly. Then, with a small brush,
apply coat of antique glaze, easily
obtainable in hardware or paint
stores. Cover one surface at q
time (do not paint the whole piano
at once) and after it has had time
enough to get sticky arm yourself
with a good-sized soft cloth such as
cheese cloth or cotton waste andsrub
the glaze off to the tone of ivory
tan or ecru that suits you. The
edges of any surface, i.e, the top
or the sides Of the piano, should be
deeper in hue than the center, of
that area. After a few hourishes
with your cloth you will become a
master at achieving the effects you
desire. This glaze will dry also
just as paint does and after a good
waxing you'll have very lovely
piano.
And now for a request Does any
reader have a recipe for mint ice
cream or mint sherbet that can be
prepared in an electric refrigerator
I have an ice cream that calls for
crushed candy sticks and it's very
good-but pink. I prefer recipe
I can tint green successfully.
From Mrs. C. D. S., Arlington.)
To Mrs. I. T. S., Alexandria: am
just doing my piano over an an
antique ivory finish, so your request
is very timely. First paint your OBJ
ject to be antiqued white with one
of the heavy enamels. thinned it a
little with turpentine and gave mine
two coats. When thoroughly dry
apply antique glaze as follows:
/ Mix together l tablespoon clear
varnish, 3 tablespoons turpentine
TX teaspoons raw turkey lumber
1 (This is enough for small table, SO
you may have to either mix more
from time to time, or make several
times the recipe given here.
Method: Brush the antique glaze

pressions. then take clean cloth

AT LAST: A new innovation on
the nail-polish idea! Here's a prod
uct that has so many features we
just don't know where to begin. For
one thing, it is supposed to make
all other nail polish obsolete. This
one goes on your nails easily and
there's no worry about smearing,
peeling and chipping. And it stays
on and on and on. Sounds won
derful, doesn't it? The bottle is
also nifty new idea and the ex-
elusive lucite plume applicator is
balanced in your hand so that 1t Is
easy to apply this new enamel.
