MILADY BEAUTIFUL BY LOIS LEEDS. Coiffure for Growing Hair. Dear Miss Leeds: (1) I am letting my hair grow and it is at a troublesome stage. I wear it on one side. Can you suggest a different way? I am.16 years old, 5 feet 93 inches tall and weigh 138 pounds. Is this correct? Can a tall girl be attractive? (3) What exercise is good for reducing stout legs? (4) How can I remove freckles and moles from my face?— Big Sis. Answer—(1) It is rather hard to sug- gest & coiffure for you without know- ing the shape of your face. You might part your hair in the center for a change and have two or three small flat curls on your forehead. Put a few deep waves into your hair and let it come over your ears. If it is long enough, fold it over in the back and pin it flat with wire clips. If it is not long enough for this, you might make the ends into round curls and pin them against your head as sculpture curls. (2) Your weight is correct. A tall girl can be attractive in appearance if she is true to her own type and does not try to dress or act like a little flap- per. She should avoid fussy clothes. Classic draped effects or simple tailored styles are suitable for her. Of course, any one who cultivates a pleasing per- sonality can be attractive, regardless of her size. . (3) Walking and swimming are good for the purpose. Kicking exercises and rotation of the leg at the the hip are helpful. De ing and heel-and-toe e: (4) You use a commercial bleach to make the freckles lighter. Have a_ doctor -remove moles if they are disfiguring; there is nothing you can safely do for thenio y;g:mln Skirts Are Longer. Dear Miss Leeds: (1) How long should I wear my dresses and what col- ors are suitable? I am a brunette with dark brown eyes and hair that is tinged with gray. !hlvcn{oodeolnrlnmy face. Iam 47 years old, 5 feet 4 inches tall and weigh 120 pounds. My meas- urements are: bust, 36; waist, 26; hips, 38; arm, 11; wrist, 5%; thigh, 20; calf, 12; ankle, 7%. (2) Are the measure- ments anywhere near carrect?—Skip, Mill Village. Answer—(1) Skirts are longer this Spring. A graceful length for you would be just down to the widest part of your calf. Light browns, tan, sand and beige are especially smrt and becoming. You may also wear the ever-popular navy and its brighter version, Davy Jones blue. Dark brown, soft medium green, black, peach, old rose, Burgundy, wine, Bordeau, mahogany, dull old blue, deep cream and pongee ere good. (2) You are a good deal below the average weight for your age and height, but if you are in good heal'1 it is better for you not to try to gain. Your measure- ments are very good for your slender type. Your calf is rather small in pro- portion. It mw%\uld be more shapely if it were an inch larger. LOIS LEEDS. Curling Fluid Recipe. ar Miss Leeds: Please give the rec' : for a harmless curling fiuld for the hair. BEATRICE R. Answer—Mix together two drams tragacanth, 10 drops glycerin and eight ounces of rose-water. Let this stand overnight. Mix in two ounces of cologne water. Add more cologne water if the mixture becomes too thick. For finger waving it should be about as thick as unbeaten white of egg. LOIS LEEDS. De (Copyright, 1929.) MOVIES AND MOVIE IfEOPLE BY MOLLIE MERR:ICK. HOLLYWOOD, Calif., April 18.—The graces are passing in movies, for the arts have arrived. Mary and Doug are to do Shake- speare. Mary has made the hit of the year with her venture into drama, and Doug is to shed the hose and doublets of the elder Dumas for the abbreviated Shakespearean version of Oxford bags which Petruchio wore. as the shrew, Katherine, and the Bard of Avon complicating things for the micro- phone with his involved sentences in- tended for a leisurely audience, we shall see. The most interesting thing of all is the fact that Sam Taylor, the same director who saw Mary through all the days of her little-girl roles, will carry right on into Shakespeare. Of course, Mary Garden would an- nounce her strong desire to make talkie films. Mary has a “strong desire” for ]evoryt.hxng that is connected with pub- icity. If Tito Ruffo sings at almost $1,000 & ¥ip, why not Mary Garden? If Chaliapin makes every pianissimo tone worth its weight in platinum, our Mary can do something that will bring in the sort of checks she loves to touch. On top of all this is the announce- ment that Charlie Farrell and Janet Gaynor will talk, as 'if ‘you hadn't guessed by now. Every one will talk— once, anyway. And some will survive while others will pass out with the first sentence. There’s no more recipe for forecasting all this than there was when a new star was launched in pantomime. ‘They either clicked with the public— and you sometimes wondered why—or they didn't. Often in the latter event you wondered how it could be that the masses could overlook some one you thought had so much to offer. It's much the same as marriage. But here in Hollywood they worry far more over their unsuccessful movies than they do over their unsuccessful marriages. ‘The breakfast is the thing in Movie- land these days. Talkies run half the night—I mean the making of them— and the daylight hours are given over to study, fittings, exercise, and so on. Sometimes of & Sunday morning 10 or 12 can be got together. For the rest the gelatin town has adopted the dinner pail with a vengeance. And the film that was ruined when the lovely young movie thing (after 14 rehearsals of the scene) swung around for the line “Am I not your wife?” with a “Aln't I your wife?” “This is supposed to be Park avenue,” said the director witheringly. (They have adopted Park avenue whole-heart- edly in Gelatinland.) “What uv it?” retorted the shapely little star. “Ain't a girl got & right to a temper in Park av'noo just the same as any other place? Ain’t she?” “She ain't!” said the disgusted direc- tor, and walked off the set while a d&glomsuc assistant began the fifteenth rehearsal with & patient smile. “He's canary,” said the little star, | whose public is numerous. “I've known a lotta swell Janes and they was all devils when you got ’em haywire, I'll tell the cock-eyed world!” (Copyright, by North American News- r Alliance.) —_ Onions Stuffed and Braised. Choose six Spanish medium-sized onions, peel them, trim the root, but do not cut it right away, as this tends to make the onion fall apart. Put them well, take off the outer skin and scoop out some of the center of each onion. Chop this and use for the filling. Mix the chopped onicn with half a pound of sausage meat and half a teaspoonful of powdered sage, and season with pep- per, salt and butter. FPill the onions with the sausage meat mixture.. Cut one large onion and one large carrot into dice, put some slices of fat bacon in the bottom of & deep pan or cas- serole, fry the bacon slightly, then add the vegetables. Stand the stuffed onlons on the vegetables, add half a pint of stock well seasoned and put & small plece of fat bacon on each onion. Cover the casserole or pan and cook in a mod- erate oven for about an hour, basting the onions occasionally. Remove the onions, place them on & hot dish and keep hot. Pour off the liquid, skim well and reduce and pour around the dish. Garnish with parsley. in cold water, bring to the boiling point | and bofl for 15 minutes.

MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. To Teach Color. One mother says: “To give my small children a sense of color I constantly mention colors to them. When we see a pretty dress 1 say, ‘What a pretty blue dress!’ When I put on their frocks I say something about the color of each. Crayolas are good teachers of color, too, if you are careful to tell the child the color of each one used. Occasionally I test my children on colors they have learned.” (Copyright, 1929.) Fish and Cucumbers. Pare and cut two medium sized cu- cumbers and one small onion into cakes. Add one teas) in bolling water until the cucumbers are tender. Drain and add one and one-half cupfuls of medium thick sea- soned white sauce and one cupful of flaked leftover fish. Place the mixture in ramekins and dust with dry bread crumbs and paprika.
