QLOTHES TIPS FOR THE PLUM!‘ When the petite-sized woman ba-kse on any middle-age gain in weight, her clothes must be much more carefully chosen. The extreme fashions of the "new

look" which are apt to be unflatw

tering to her figure should be re-

jected by the small, plump worm-l

an. Not for her, for example. are skirts with extravagant flare, hippy pockets, or unpadded shoulder lines.

'l‘he short. stocky woman needs to wear shoulder pads to give her entire figure a lift and to make her waistline look slimmer.

She should reject loopy pockets or other hip-rounding devices on dresses or suits because these de- tails have a widening effect her figure. Because hill-flaring

skirts also have a widening effect“!

these should be rejected in favour of skirts with straighter lines a; with modified fare. These will be much more slimming.

What the. petite-sized woman can use to advantage, however, are longer skirts. which help to elofi- gate length of figure. Her figure will also be flattered by "new

look“ fashions which are fitted through the usaistline and have a. minimum of hip-rounding detail.

OHEILXTIB - INFLAMLMAfiON 0F LIPS — CAUSED BY LIPSTICK

You are hearing about cheilitis- inflammation of the lip -- being [caused by lipstick. and naturally think that the particular lipstick ‘used must contain poison of some idndltand you decide you'll never use

The first thing noted in cheilitls ,is the puffiness present along with lwhat might be called simple svnell- iing. It thus resembles the swelling ‘and puffiness caused by allergy to various food; and also resembles the swelling and pilfflnBSs of poison

Vi’.

In “Archives of Dermatology and fiyphllology," Chicago. Dr-s. s. J. lzakon, A. L, Goldberg and J. B. [Kalhn report 32 cases of cheilitis in Qwomen between the age; of 17 and i54 woh were seen in one year of practice The characteristic swelling and puffiness caused by the deposit of water in the tissues of both lips appeared after the patien/ts- had changed to a new type of lipstick. or the eruption appeared suddenly |with continued use of the same gbflimd over a. period of months or years. The underlying cause is tahe tendency or allergy to direct irri- tation frcm the indelible dyes lbrcmofluoreceins.)

Once the dyes were recognized in these 32 cases. treatment to re- move them from the blood and tis- sues was immediately started. A lipstick was then used by these patients ullilch did not contain the indelible dyes. The patients‘ symp- toms than disappeared in an aver- age period of two weeks. These patients were not considered sen- sitive to light.

“Tlhe use of a lipstick with a

nonindelible dye is a practical, safe and rapid treatment and offers the solution of this frequent connetlc Iplroblem." j The thought, then. is that women using lipstick for cosmetic effect 50f‘ to protect their lips from the |rays of the sun, which irritation is loften difficult t0 heal, naturally ‘should use the lipstick they prefer (as long as no lip symptoms occur. lHowever, should cheilitis occur — which may be accompanied by swelling of the glands nearby - ‘they should stop using that parti- Ioular brand of lipstick and use one lto which they are not sensitive or allergic.

Good Wife Is Good Cook

Man llas lllght To Expect Mate To Prepare Tasty iilshas

DEAR DOIRUYHY DEX: My husband is always quarreling about my cooking and sometimes he gets so nuad he just won't eat at all. Don't you think that when a. woman does her best to please her hus- band that he should eat what she cooks? *

Now there is no earthly excuse for a woman being a poor cock, for there are innumerable cookbooks that tell just exactly how to prepare every sort of food, just how long it should be cooked, just how hot the oven should be. and if she will follow these rules she cannot fail.

Personally. I don't blame any man for kicking the roof of‘! the house when his wife sits hkn down to a bad meal and offers him coffee that tastes like lukewarm dishwater, and food that would kill an ostrich. He has paid for good food, and he has .a right to expect her not to ruin it in the cooking.

Moreover, more than the pleasure of his palate

la involved. His‘ life and his health and that of his children depend upon the way they are fed. A large proportion of the sickness and inefficiency of people is due to their being undernourished, and half of the under-nourishment is the direct result of bad cooking. If a man is not well fed, he becomes cross and pessimistic and dyspeptic and nobody wants to deal with him, and so his earning power is decreased. Many a man's failure is directly tracmbla to his wife's bad cooking.

LEARN TO 000K

5o my advice\to you is that instead of feeling that your husband is a brute to growl over your cocking. suppose you go to work in earn- est and learn how to be a. cracker-jack cook? I think this will improve your husband's disposition.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Don't you think that if a man is in love with a girl whom he is not financially able to marry, but whom he really wants. he would make every effort to make enough money to nanry her?

JANE T.

ANSWER: There is no better proof of love that a man can give than his willingness to work for a girl. Many young men, as long as they have no one but themselves to take care of, are inclined to loaf on their jobs and take things easy.

But the minute a worth- ‘hile man falls in love for keeps and begins to think of matrimony, ,he rolls up his sleeves and goes to work in earnest because he wants to give his wife all the comforts and luxuries he can. That is why employers prefer married men. It puts pep and energy and determination into a man to have a woman to work for. ~

You may be very sure of this: The man whom love does not speed up isn't really in love, or else he is so selfish and lazy he isn't worth having.

DEAR MISS DIX: I am a young man 2i years old and I want to go out in the world and earn my ow-n living, but as I am untrained I do not know what to do. My father runs a little printing shop and he is determined that I shall carry on with him, but frankly I hate the work. This causes endless quarrels between us. What should l do? I want to be a~ success in life.

TOM S.

ANSWER: Try to find out what Nature intended you to do. Even if you have no very decided talent, you must have some aptitude for doing some particular thing, and there must be some one special thing that you enjoy doing. Then go to a trade school and learn how to do it well. Get to be an expert. They‘ are the only onea who can command a good salary. There is no place for an untrained worker.

I think your father is wrong in trying to make you do the kind of work you have come to hate. You have to be able to put your heart in a job to make a success cf it. Very often the wise thing is for a boy to leave home and strike out for himself. because it is hard for parents to realize that their children grow up and have minds of their own. instead of staying perpetual babies who must let Mama and Papa decide what they must be and do.

Ellen '3 Diary

happening at Aides-lea today was the sale of the fat heifers, though there were other incidents that contributed to the welfare of the family as well. These are the an.- mals that of late James has been brushing to a satiny smoothness and of which Jock commenting this evening on their fit said: "They should be in pretty good shape they have never yet missed a regu- lar feeding." The event afforded a pleasant life to the beginning o! our new week-of-work and gave our farmers food for reflection. Buyers ‘of live-stock happen along to farmstcads without warning. This one arrived as we were about to commence our dinner. "Ah. mei" I sighed. and put James’ plate in the warming oven. Our mnt b- day was steak, a cut from a choice animal that Jock whose tastes seem to favor those of his English forbears, fancied. O

lt was quite as good as he had anticipated, tender and juicy, out- lined with a pleasing amount oi fat and altogether tasteful. though by his delay in dining, James lost some of this. Not that he would sawr the fare anyway for had he not the recent business transaction still fresh 0n his mind? "Well, El len" he observed drawing up his chair to the table “they're sold. I suppose if we had held out, we might have done better. but a fel- low can't be too sticky. on a bar- gain -- and besides I have a feel- in; that markets aren't to be trusted. as they are." ‘That's righi ' I agreed - the women here al- ways agreo with the men about any outdoor dealing. There is real- ly nothing else we can dol-"and anyway" I consoled him "no one could expect you to haggle over a price, on an empty stomach. coul-i they?"

‘rodayk purchaser of livestock is a local butcher, a big brawny man. well accustomed to lifting and cai- tying weigh quarter: of beef, and if he is inc ined to refer to such feats as being pretty well in the past. it is no secret that should a testy argument occur in his prea- ence, his strength still healthy respect. He is L‘ a calm nature. an asset that is singularly refreshing to meet lr. these dais of "stress and strain" and he iraiao possessed of that marvelous patience which is often to be noted in men of large sta- ture. An educated person, gaining this more by travel and wide reari- ing than in schools, and gifted with a wisdom that weighs ahu balances well his judgments and indeed even then. is not over con- fident in giving any. One of his best gifts of all is his remarkable insight into the workings of human nature won by serving the inter- ests of both a rural and urban pub- lic through many years.

He does not seem to be surpris- ed over some queer happenings ‘r. a community thought regretful, but is interested in studying tne workings of fate. “Think of that nowl" he will comment of it ear- nestly "It's a strange thing too but it's something you can't get a- way from -the way history has of repeating itself in the years. Now I can remember the old follu on the road talking about the llko long ago . . . and there it is again? Certainly a fund of knowledge this dealer has on many subjects ncr is he lacking in business acumen. On the contrary, our farmers are hound it takes only a casual glance at an animal to have him quickly reckon, and to a surprising degree of accuracy, the per cent of meat that will come from the killing. "But I could be wrong" he will say modestly “that, since you asked mo. is only my opinion" but one quot- ed as dependable, where farmers forgather. And so to this dealer. our fat heifers were sold today, to be delivered "off the grass" on a Summer day to come. And-what than? James answered this at the milking time this waning even ba- fore I asked the question then up- permost in my mind. “We'll havo somdieft for another year, Ellen" he said. "We'll have that one" and he indicated a unallish one in a near stall "and that one at the back, and there's that o: in the other stable - we'll have thou to put in for the fattening if a‘.l goes .wel.i next Fail."
