WOM Buttons Coming AN’'S PAGE Back Into Favor BY MARY MARSHALL. ' @mdually but surely buttons are #oming back into favor and on many of the smartest of the new Autumn dresses you will see them used in effective and al ways. a dress of brown with s beige ider yoke and collar you will see wn buttons used at the front closing the beige with beige buttons on the g:mm belt, or on a black satin dress with white satin coliars and cuffs you may use white buttons against the black and black buttons against the white On a dress with a diagonal closing of the bodice portion and a dluona)‘ arrangement at the fron: of the skirt yoke you may use two large buttons— one af the closing of the bodice and the other in a similar position on the yoke. One of the new jacket suits of black crepe shows two large white buttons at the front closing with another button of the same sort to fasten the white gala- pin scarf collar and two other buttons used at the sides of the white galapin cuffs. On many of the new silk crepe blouses self-covered buttons are used close to- gether in rows at the front or side closing and on the cuffs, with loops of the ma- terial to achieve the fastening. There are brilliant Jeweled buttons to be used to trim the more formal aft- ernoon dress, gleaming pearl buttons for daytime dresses and metal buttons of all sorts. Good sized buttons of shiny steel are often seen as well as those with a gold or bronze finish. Supper or Luncheon Salad.

Pifteen vears ago I said in this col- wumn: “Too many surgeons are doing too many goiter operations, and 100 many patlents are apparently anxious to submit to this fad. Of course there e exceptional cass of very severe exophthalmic goiter in which operation must be considered as a life-saving easure.” If the surgeons are not so insistent on $he necessity of early operation today § is because the more conservative byslcians have taught them better ;el ent. In any case, whether the exophthal- mnic goiter patient is subjected to any surgical treatment or not, from six months to two years of careful medical treatment is usually necessary to re- store the }xuem to health. The actual zurpou of the operation in such cases to decrease the amount of the thyrold secretion constantly poured into the Blood stream. That lessens the burden on the patient’s organs, diminishes the strain on the nervous system and the cir- 3 part of the excessive stimulation which is driving these or- at such a furious pace.

Even today many exophthalmic goiter cases are not so diagnosed, but they masquerade as one or anotheg minor functional ment, according to the symptoms which happen to be most marked. Many patients who have had exophthalmic goiter have recovered good health without any specific treatment for the goiter. There is a natural tend- ency toward recovery, just as there is in pulmonary tuberculosis, # environment and general habits do not prevent re- covery. Surgical aid should be regarded purely s a kind of emergency resort in a grave or desperate case. Burgery never cures | goiter. Medical treatment is the only cure we have for this disease. (Copyright, i931.) Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS, Judging Faces. Any one knows that you can judge temporary emotional states pretty ac- curately by merely observing facial ex- ons. But you need to distinguish tween temporary expressions and per- manent facial features. Of all the bodily parts the face is most ve to temporary mental processes and statess of mind. Some faces are more responsive than others, of course. You can readily observe this difference in the movies, artificia’ though it all is. v ‘The moment you begin to read char- acter instead of emotions your problem very complex. Wrinkles near the eyes mean nothing except a scarcity of flesh under the skin and perhaps & certain dryness of the skin. Laughing and squinting rarely cause crow’s feet, nor does laughter cause distortion in some permanent form of the shape of the mouth. ‘There is a facial trait, called “tonus,” that reveals character better than an: thing else. A person with a strong fa- cial tonus has a-solid appearance. A weak tonus is equivalent to flabbiness. A rugged tonus betrays the adventurer and prospector, whether he be an ex- plorer in mines or in libraries, | you at least 25 dollers apiece Even in the case of tonus, one must | not confuse the fatcors of general health and age with mental character- istics. The fact that we get into the habit of making judgments directly from the face is by no means a guar- antee that such judgments are reliable. | (Copyright. 1931.)

Dear Miss Leeds: what to do for oily hair. I have been advised to have hot-oil and violet ray treatments. Would these benefit oily hair? I am afraid that hot-oll treat- ments will increase the oil in my hair. What would you advise? B. C. G Answer—Oily hair needs an astri gent tonic, as well as frequent wash- ing and regular massage and brushing. The warm-oil treatments are often very helpful if used before the sham- | poo; the oil loosens up the greasy scales and also the crusts of dandruft which may adhere to the scalp. Violet treatments are good for many scalp ills. During the Summer months expose both hair and scalp for a few minutes to the direct rays of the sun every day. In that way you will be giving it & natural ultra-violet ray treatment and you will find it espe- clally beneficial to olly hair.
