There mustn't be a wrinkle or a bunch any- where. Nothing should be tight, but there should be no superflucus fullness about the waist or hips. When you get accustomed to the new smoothly fitting underthings you may wonder how you ever managed to stand the bunchy underthings that were made with elastic tape at the waistline, and the elastic topped bloom- ers that you used to consider so satis- of all discarded fashions. In their stead you will want simply made pants of silk crepe or satin or possibly of ninon. They are made usually with a fastening at the back {or side and without a ripple or a gather about the waist or hips. Two or three small buttons are arranged at the back or side closing.

No matter what you may decide your make-up to be, there is always somebody coming along with a new solution to the mystery. Chemistry now offers a new solu- tion. But only a few psychologists are prepared or willing to say that| chemistry holds the key to the secrets of the sou). All one can say just now is that the chemical theory is inter- esting, especially when considered from a historical point of view. And that's the end of it. Back at the beginning of the Chris- tian era, & famous physician found four chemical elements which he call- ed humors. PFrom this he concluded there must be four types of tempera- ments. Not a bad guess, when you remember that they had little to work on other than guesses in those dark days. The question comes up again today. A modern guesser thinks we have something like a dozen chemical types. There seems, however, to be no way of proving that certain chemicals are responsible for given temperaments. To prove your case in favor of chemi- cals, you would have to make a.com- plete laboratory test of a few hundred subjects. And that seems out of the question at present. ec the Great It seems that games of solitaire And other people’s lives entice The rest of us to stand around And offer bits of good advice. D. C., THURSDAY, Handwriting What It May Reveal. @@w P —F HIS type of large, swinging writ- ing with a nfiicnble slant is usually indicative of a genial, friendly personality. This writer is probably a pleasant, attractive person who has many friends. She apparently would thoroughly enjoy hu- man_contacts, finding more delight in people than in inanimate objects. She perhaps would enjoy mixing with 1 strange and foreign types, possibly seek- ing them out. In our own country are found many different peoples from all over the globe. They would seemingly attract her more than average Ameri- cans. If she spends much time with these folk, she should be able to learn their languages. If she is the kind of a person to whom foreign tongues come easily, sht could profit by these asso- ciations. Linguists who are really fa- miliar with several languages are in constant demand. There are many who can read a foreign language without being able to speak it. If she could do both proficiently, she would be especially fortunate. g Enjoying, as she seemingly does, as- sociation with others, she might be interested in working with some of our Americanization schools. ~Here she could give untold assistance to the strangers in our land. Knowledge of their manner of speech would be a great help. Most important, however, would be her graciousness and charm of manner. They would enable her to win the confidence and trust of these people she was endeavoring to teach. Her recreational pursuils are per- haps varied, She probably enjoys reading novels, making real friends of the characters. The theater, also, might appeal to her, giving another opportunity to study the characteristics of people.

EAR MIS8 LEEDS—I am 15 years old and have enlarged pores and a red complexion. How can I make it look smooth and clear? COLLEGIATE. Answer—A possible cause of your beauty problem is the failure to rinse off all the soap after washing the face and neglecting an astringent applica- tion afterward. Soap particles left on the skin frritate it. After the pores have been opened and cleansed wuh‘ the warm water and soap it is impor- tant that they be closed again. This | is accomplished by bathing the face | in cold water or using an astringens skin lotion. | By improving the general muscular | tone of your whole body by more hy- | gienic living you can do much toward gaining a smooth, fine-textured skin. | Avoid constipation. Eat wisely. Exer- cise dally. Try to take a three or four mile walk outdoors each day. Take a warm cleansing bath at least twice a week and every morning give yoursell | a stimulating sponge bath or shower, followed by a brisk rubdown with a coarse towel or bath mittts. LOIS LEEDS. Blackheads on Her Nose. Dear Miss Leeds—My nose is covered with blackheads and I also have pim- ples. I am 13 years old, 5 feet 5 inches tall and weigh 105 pounds. How can I have a nice complexion? MAY. Answer—You are 14 pounds below the average for your age and height, so the first thing to do is to build up your weight. Sleep is very important at your age. Be in bed by 8:30 or 9 o'clock and rise at 7 the next day. Eat three square meals a day including a quart of milk. Be sure to eat fresh fruit such as oranges, apples, grape- fruit every day; also plenty of vege- tables like spinach, cabbage, carrots, turnips, etc. Eat whole wheat bread and cereals, simple desserts like cus- | tard, baked apple, brown betty, choco- late pudding and gelatin. Drink water freely between meals. You can get rid of the blackheads by using soap and water freely. Gently massage a thick lather on your nose. When it has dried, rinse it off thor- oughly. Press out the larger black- heads without bruising the skin Sponge with witch-razel. Repeat the treatment faithfully once a day. | LOIS LEEDS. | Dry Hair. | Dear.
