WOMAN’S PAGE. MILADY BEAUTIFUL BY LOIS LEEDS. How to Cleanse Face. ‘The correct method of cleansing the face will do more to keep the skin clear from such defects as blackheads, pimples and whiteheads than anything else. whose skin is marred by such blemishes must give the face a thorough cleansing every night. Likewise, proper cleansing is the best safeguard for those ‘who wish to avold blemishes. To cleanse the skin at night one should first apply a cleansing oil or cream, Use a light cream—one that will penetrate deeply into the pores and help loosen the embedded dirt. Apply it generously and evenly over the face and neck. Leave it on the skin for a minute or two and then remove with tissue squares or a piece of soft old linen. If the face seems particularly solled, apply a second coating of cream and remove in the same way. ‘Women who have dry skins may find the cleansing with cream quite suffi- clent, but it is very difficult to keep the complexion really clean without also using soap and water. So, after remov ing the cream, wash the face with warm |, water and a mild soap. Pure Castile s0ap, or any pure soap which has olive oil as its base, is very good for most skins. Lather the face freely and hold a cloth wrung out in hot water over the face. Repeat several times and then press out the blackheads at the sides of the nose and wherever they are particularly large and prominent. During this operation, however, be care- ful not to bruise the skin. Rinse in THE STAR’S DAILY PATTERN SERVICE. Sports World. All the smartest frocks this season adopt the sleeveless mode. They differ from last year's sleeveless frocks. They are muchhm?;e becoming, with their drooped shoulders. ‘The model sketched is a favorite Paris-Riviera frock, interpreted in men’s silk shirting in pale blue on white ground. This new blue shade leads the mode and is very flattering. No _wonder for its success. The jumper is distinguished by its one-sided scalloped closing, with cor- responding scalloped treatment of arm- holes. It is belted at the normal cooler water and finally with cold water. This treatment will do much toward dissolving and washing away the olly grime in the pores. ‘The next step in this cleansing proc- ess is often omitted and this neglect is a frequent cause of the ugly red spots or tiny pimple; resulting where black- heads have been removed. The parts should be bathed with an antiseptic so- lution, which may be made by dissolving one heaping teaspoonful of boric powder in one pint of boiling water. Allow it to cool 50 that the already ten- der skin will not be burned. When just tepid bathe the affected parts of the face in it for several minutes. Dry the skin by patting with a soft towel. Finally, an astringent must be applied to close the pores which have been opened to remove the embedded dirt and grime. The astringent will cause the tiny muscles and pores which have be- come relaxed to tighten and close. For the astringent one may use a plece of ice wrapped in a cloth; rub the face for a few minutes with this. Or use small pads of absorbent cotton wrung out in witch hazel, gently patting the skin in an upward and rotary move- ment with these pads. Those who wish further advice in regard to a complexion marred by pim- ples and blackheads may have a copy of my leaflet on “Treatment of Com- plexion Ills.” It is free of charge and will be mailed to any one sending a stamped, self-addressed envelope with a request for it.

Rare flowers are just as wonderful as you choose to belleve them. Even the definition of a rarity is vague. A rare flower here in the District might be common somewhere else, like the shooting-star. A rarer sort still would be exemplified, for instance, by Coville's Phacelia, which is not found much, I think, anywhere except right here in the District, and is known and esteemed only by the most technical botanists. id | Ordinary mortals have never heard of it, and could not be aroused to any high pitch of enthusiasm if they observed it. To slightly irrational on the sub- Ject of rarity (a trait common to bota- nists, ornithologists and collectors of early American glass and other an- tiques) is a sign of an amateurish, or rather a beginner's form of nature love. One soon learns that rarity in itself is of little significance, and increasing studies often alter our views of what we thought was rare, Having thus ground the search-for- the-rare into powder, I will now have the candor to admit that I am still susceptible to the charm of the rare, at least somewhat, just as all men retain a few puerile tastes. Shelley liked to all toy boats, and captains of industry are said to enjoy, some of them, playing with electric trains and tracks, on the floor, like boys in their nurseries. I must admit that to find the shooting star growing in the District is still ca- pable of giving me a thrill, and so is the voice of the mocking bird which is, though many people do not know it, to be heard in Spring inside the limits of the District. rs and mocking birds be- long in that category of species rare where we find them and common some- where else. They belong in a still more fascinating category—of things loved in childhood. There is something indefin- able but haunting about any sight or sound or odor that brings back earliest memories. And the shooting-star, and the mocking bird, a sight and a sound of May, do this for me. MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN Rainy-Day Amusement. One mother says: When Jimmy must stay indoors to play I sometimes fix up a game for him which he calls “Furnishing the House.” On a large sized sheet of brown paper or cardboard I draw for him a room which is to represent some room in our house. ‘Then he goes to that room, with a bun- dle of old magazines, a pair of scissors and some paste. He cuts out furniture as nearly like the furniture in that room as he can find and pastes it on the paper in positions corresponding to the lace the furniture is in the room. This as helped him to pass many a dreary hour, and he has nearly completed fur- nishing every room in our home. (Copyright, 1930.) Mint Sauce.

A survey made in the county of Mid- dlesex, England, shoWwed that 25 per cent of the children there had com- | plained of growi pains. A similar survey made in Rochester, N. Y., showed that 7 per cent of the school children | had complained of growing pains. Heart disease was found i 2.6 per cent of | Rochester school children and in 2.7 per cent of London’ school children. Of the English children, 1 per cent had| chorea (St. Vitus dance), while only| :.Sdp’fl cent of the American children ad it. ‘There has been a disposition to as- cribe the excessive prevalence of so- called rheumatism in England to the climate, to damp, cold houses and all that sort of thing. Even now some of our medical colleagues vigorously up- hold this idea. If I had to be damp and chilly most of the time, I'd strive to bear up cheerfully under the discom- fort, knowing that it couldn't rob me of such health as I might have to begin with and having reason to believe— mind, I say only belleve—that a little cod liver oil ration would compensate pretty well for the ultraviolet I might miss by reason of the dark, foggy, dull, leaden, clammy, dismal, damp clothes- compelling weather or climate. In other words, it seems to me the greater prev- alence of so-called rheumatic fever or rheumatism in England is due to the comparatively small amount of ultra- violet rays that reach the naked skin of the Englishman. Remember, London is far north of Rochester, England, lying in the latitude of Labrador, and the sun’s rays are slanting up there and cglnplntlvely poor in ultraviolet at all times. Although the English doctors, and' some of our own, cling fondly to the name rheumatism, or rheumatic fever, nobody in modern medicine doubts that such {liness or illnesses are manifesta- tions of infection, invasion of the body by certain disease germs, particularly the type of strain called streptococcus. Dr. Albert D. Kalser reports that a survey made in Rochester showed that 630 children out of 20,000 who had never had their tonsils removed de- veloped acute rheumatic fever; whereas 399 children out of another group of 20,000 between the ages of 5 and 15 years whose tonsils had been removed an average of five years before the sur- How eagerly you'll welcome Kellog; l"ep Bran Flakes on They’re so erisp and cool!

As I have quoted Dr. Kaiser's studies here before as &ndlnf to dis- courage tonsillectomy, it is only fair to quote his conclusion from the forego- ing and other data. He says “tonsil- lectomy should be practiced in children manifesting minor manifestations of rheumatism.” Some of the minor manifestations to which he refers are early recurrent ton- sillitls, malaise, rapid heart, growing or joint pains. Among a group of .105 children whose only complaint was growing pains, 19 were found to have endocarditis (involvement of heart lin- ing or heart valves). Dr. Kaiser re- minds us that very serious rheumatic fever, involving the heart, for instance, may occur even though the patient never feels any joint pain or growing pain.

The overworked French words, “tout ensemble,” really best express a certain characteristic of good dressing that is most_important nowadays. It is not enough to know that viewed from the front your hat is very becoming, or to feel assured that so long as you do not have to walk rapidly your skirt will stay in place, or that so long as you sit primly your frock will hang as it should. More than ever before women find it essential to be dressed so carefully that they will be prepared for any occasion. When Aunt Isabel used to go motor- ing somé 20 years ago she first ap- plied quite a generous coat of cold cream to her fair complexion, and over that laid on a generous coat of powder. Then she donned a close-fitting hair net and on top of that one of the then new mushroom hats made for motoring. Over them went a heavy chiffon veil. She wore an old frock because she would have to don an ‘“automobile coat” anyway—made of dust-colored linen. . If Aunt Isabel and her friends stop- ped for luncheon on their trip the men would go ahead and negotiate for the repast and then the women, walk- ing close together, still swathed in their automobile dusters and veils, would get themselves into the restaurant as in- conspicuously as possible. And just suppose any one had suggested dancing. Why it would have taken Aunt Isabel an hour at least to transform herself into a suitable appearance for dancing. Needless to say, Aunt Isabel's young daughter nowadays starts out for a motor ride quite ready for almost any emergency. She wears a comfortable sports frock; her shoes, though per- fectly comfortable, are trim and smart enough for dancing; her bobbed hair needs no net, for the strongest wind will do no more harm than can be cor- rected with a touch of a pocket comb and a pat or two.

BY J. P. GLASS. P L e (AR “TAKE HIM TO THE TABLE YOURSELF,” SAID HER HUSBAND. Senator Gwin hesitated a_long time before he decided to invite Willlam H. Seward to his house. Republican though he was, Seward, in the pre-Civil War days, aspired ordinately to be admitted to the circle of Southern society at Washington. Was it due merely to his desire to keep a hold upon Southern leaders and 50 maintain the solidarity of the Whig party, or did he have a petty ambition to break down the barriers of this ex- clusive set in Washington? Many_believed the latter to be the case. Once, as 4 young man, he had been the head of an academy in Georgia. They said that then he had conceived a taste for Southern soclety. In 1860 conditions were such that Seward still could be friendly even with Jefferson Davis. _Senator Gwin, & Californian, but & firm Southerner, was very favorable to him. But there was no doubt, the latter felt, that pro- slavery adherents hated Seward more than any other politician in the North. Secesslonists usually had = Seward in mind when they threatened the end of the Union if a “black Republican” President was elected. It would be very difficult, Dr. Gwin told his wife—and she had agreed with him—to include the Northern Senator In a company of Southerners. Nevertheless, he finally took the plunge. On a certain evening he in- vited Seward to a dinner party where nearly all the guests were Southern Senators and their wives. Among the Senators were such stalwarts as Toombs, Hunter, Mason and Breckenridge. “Dear me,” said Mrs. Gwin to the doctor, when the subject came up of how to pair Seward for dinner, “what shall I do?” “Take him to the table yourself” said her husband. That 1s what she did. If every one else was doubtful about his presence, Seward was not. He gradually entered into the conversation the skin. Palmolive does not. safely and keeps the skin soft and smooth at the same time. That is why Marinello advise it. Palmolive is made of vegetable oils. It is not artificially colored. It needs no heavy and dissipated the chill that had greeted him. Soon he was discoursing with a brilliancy that engaged the attention of all. He was a great success, to the delight of the Gwins. But his penetration of the “charmed circle” had little effect, as an incident of the following day showed. Meeting Senator Toombs, Senator Hunter said, “When I ran into Seward today he had the impertinence to say, ‘Good morning, Brother Hunter.' " “Did you knock him down?” asked ‘Toombs. “Why, no,” replied Hunter. “How could I knock a man down for calling me_brother?” Seward'’s efforts to render his leader- ship successful by maintaining agree- able relations with the Southern Whigs failed. The Whig party was superseded by the Republican. The rail splitter, Lincoln, not Seward, went to the White House. (Copyright. 1930.) Delicious Salad. Cut slices from the stem ends of three green and three red peppers, use the pulp of two grapefruits, 12 English walnuts and half a cupful of cho&%od celery hearts.
