BEAUTY HINTS ‘

If your lipstick refuses to stay on longer than half an hour, do not blame the brand until you have checke’ carefully your ap- plication methods. The main rea- son a good many women can't they put it on incorrectly in the keep color‘on their lips is because first place.

When you have used all oi your cosmetics, including pow- der. wine your lips with a piece of clean tissue. Be sure no mois- ture remains Then, parting them a trifle so that you can put a iltEe color on mat inside line which shows when you talk or smile, apply lipstick generously-

Keep your mouth slightly open for about two minutes. theeby giving the makeup time to set. When it looks dry. take another piece oi tissue and rub off the ex- cess. smoothing down the rough edges as you do so. Afterward. you can moisten them all you like.

Remember that you can't use lipstick to change the natural line of your lips. To spread it be- yound the corners in the hope of making your mouth look wider is ridiculous. You won't fool any- one-not even yourself. To rouge only the centre of the lips doesn't mike i “ur mouth look smaller. It simply will appear badly made up.

If any color shows on white skin beyond the edges of your _ remove it with a bit of c am and then repowdcr that pdfrticular sgict. If your lips get dq and rough when you ride in a rumble seat or ride a horse, better carry a bit of lip pomade in your handbag.

SHYNESS HAS MANY CAUSE'

Once there was a boy who was ever so strange. Ht never flattened ‘his nose against 1 plate glass window to gaze at catching-gloves or masks or nice smooth bats. He wasn't jealous oi his cousin who had a new hockey stick. He didn't get excited when two fellows be- gan to ummel each other and roll in the gutter.

Naturally he had to enjoy his own company more or less oecause all the others liked the same things and couldn't understand a boy who wasn't more or less a rough- neck. '

He lived books and fishing or anything one could do alone cr with another quiet fellow like himself. Oh yes, he was very, very strange.

He had Just about a million brothers-under the skin —-but the didn't know it. Nekher did his parents. And neither did the parents of those other "odd" youngsters.

OUTGROWS STRANGENESS

In time he grew up. So did the rest. And lo and behold, few oi them are strange any more. There are Richard Jones, head of the test- ing-laiboratory at the Institute, and Mark Smith, a promising young lawyer. Fred. Art, Samuel and William often get their pictures in the paper for some- thing or other they've done in their business or ‘- profes- sion.

Every one of them is a courage- ous fighter in the world of wits an.“ science and law, with the courage oi his convictions and "1110111" courage to persevere. And these are the strange ones who wouldn't use their fists or shinny "l? telephone poles to watch lonely ‘Chg; that some people called
