TUESDAY, JANUARY 14, 1947 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU-- Follow the Goddess Hygeia BY HELEN JAMESON Far be it from your good looks re- porter to cry down the benefits of cosmetics, That the oily applica- tions keep the skin smooth and act as an insurance against wrinkles we |, all know well enough. Before prac- tical beautifying became a part of the business of living, women aged pefore their time. Make-up, con- sidered sinful in the funny old days, helps us to fool ourselves about the birthday record; i boosts morale and keeps us within ' finger touch of our youth, Professional beautify- ing methods are based on sensible, scientific principles, the charlatans having been chased out of the pulchritude field. Cosmetics alone have not been responsible for a general improve- ment in the appearance of the sis- ters. Every year we are ing more and more about health-giving habits and the effect they have on complexion, figure, hair, teeth and fingernails, Newspapers and maga~ zines carry enlightening features written by medical men, We're find- ing out the benefits of the balanced diet, the necessity of making food attractive to the eye, as well as palatable and nourishing. Upon the boss of the commissary department of the home depends not only the vitality of the members of the fam- ily, but also, their good looks. Women are urged to get outdoor exercise to cultivate colorful com- plexions of fine texture, to - keep scrupulously clean the entire skin surface of the body, so the skin will function normally as an organ of elimination. Then, there is the im- portant matter of mental health. There is a close bond between mind and body. They are sympathetic. The sick mind can produce symp- toms of physical disorders. Victims of nervous exhaustion have found that out to their serrow, Fear is debilitating. If the home atmosphere is tense, or if there is discord there, there is no health in the place. Everyone is heartsick, and everyone looks it. We have found out that there are no magic balms, that wrinkles can- Distributed by King Pestwres Syodiosts, lac. There are no magic balms * >» not be removed over night, that we must abide by health laws to keep well and courageous, The complexion is a health baro- meter, When good ¢ld family doc is called in, he takes a keen look at his patient. He observes the color of the skin and lips, the expression of the eyes. They tell him things he wants to find out. As the skin shows evidence of ill- ness, so does it mirror improved health. If a woman has a glorious zest for living, her step is light, she moves with rhythm, her eyes sparkle and the rouge compact isn't called into service to produce the counter- feit blush. She raises her own beauty roses. TRAIN GERMAN JOURNALISTS Berlin, Jan. 9--(AP)--British au- thorities are taking Selected German journalists from eir occupation erea to Britain for short training pourses. Paul C. Smith, editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, has proposed that Americans adopt a similar plan for sending German newspapermen to the United States to work for specified geriods and observe the workings of a free press. ° Under the British program, fin- anced by the Government, approxi- mately 10 journalists are included in & group of 35 German professional people, including young political leaders, officials in consumers co- operatives and trade unionists. France Is Lacking A Fine Calligrapher By GABRIEL COURTIAL Paris--After Jan. 16, when France again has a president of the Repub- lic, the full show of diplomatic pro=- tocol will be revived in Paris, but diplomatic calligraphy will be lost forever. When the new president of the Fourth Republic moves into the 1 Hotel d'Elysee, he will take over the full-dress reception.of ministers and ambassadors to Paris which has been exercised since the liberation by the Prench foreign minister. Two cars of Quai d'Orsay will be sent for each arriving plenipoten- tiary and his party to carry them, conducted by the chef de protocole, to the Elysee. Instead of the morn- ing clothes, or ordinary business suits which many ambassadors have been using during the war, full di- plomatic uniforms of each country will be required again. And after their credentials have been present- ed to the president, they will once again dine on their own native food. As the Romans In the old tradition, the new pre- sident will eat rice with the Chin- ese, and couscous with the Morroc- cans. But while ambassadors from China, Zanzibar, Persia, and Af- ghanistan will present credentials beautifully inscribed in hand-paint- ed colors with cloth of gold em- broidery on the edges, the poor French ambassadors will carry Jothing but a plain typewritten let- er. Has Vanished The last of the great French cal- ligraphists is gone. No one knows what happened to him. He just disappeared during the war and never came back. His name was Rene Carrio and the skill of his work was attested to by every chief of state in the world to whom France sent ambassadors, His special style was Gothic but he could also exe- cute "Rounde" letters with the touch of the Middle-Age masters, Even better was his predecessor, Alfred Grapin, recognized through- out the world as the "champion des calligraphes." Two of his most famous works were the credentials aadressed to Menelik, King of Kings and Emper- or of Ethiopia, and the Golden Book given by a former French president, Felix Faure, to the Emperor of all the Russians Nicholas II. He also il- Juminated the numbers of the giant clock in the Cathedral of Lyon, cov- ering a total area of ten square yards with tiny designs. On a bet, Garapin once covered a Glamorizing Health, Cleanliness Help Skin By HELEN POLLETT When you take your bath, friction your skin with soap and a heavy brush, RA LJ WHAT most women seek is beau- ty magic. Something in a jar or bottle, he contents of which, spread over the complexion, will make it look like the lily and the rose, no matter what its condition may be. They are eager for a short-cut to pulchritude, The long, hard pull in the form of devotion to hygienic habits and following the rules of health, just does nok have an ap- peal. Two factors are 'necessary for a clear, finely-grained, complexion; splendid health and scrupulous cleanliness. Not only cleanliness of the feminine phiz, but the entire body surface. The daily bath pep- forms cosmetic services. Resting in warm water for a few minutes, frictioning the flesh with energy, soap suds and a heavy brush, in- spires the skin to carry on as an organ of elimination. It is a com- plexion beautifier of the first class. Exercise is Important Exercise is an important factor, because it keeps the circulatory system, upon which skin coloring depends, in normal condition, It puts starshine in the eyes, It keeps LJ * muscles sound and firm, so one re- tains the youthful figure. It boosts spirits, and you know what high spirits. do to impart an animated appearance to face and body. It is vitality that keeps the beauty works running. Make-up, snappy, coiffure, grand dry goods; they are just the trimmings. From Internal Causes There are complexion disturb- ances that come from internal causes and all the cosmetics and beautifying treatments known at this moment won't correct them. The sallow skin, for instance, may be due fo some disorder that calls for medical treatment, or a change of diet. The extremely dry skin will remain dry unless the victim drinks plenty of water each day | and adds more fat to the diet. A | greyish cast to the skin may de- note failing health. The skin has a sympathetic na- ture. Some disorder kicks up a | fuss in a remote part of the body, | the skin sulks, loses color, may | even change in texture. Cosmetics are grand, but they can't fight im- paired health, five-franc piece with 8,484 distinct letters. Flowery Credentials Siamese credentials begin "most illustrious, most glorious, most pow- erful, your excellency, the president of the republic. . . The Sultan of Zanzibar begins his, "O, glorious your excellency, grand and generous minister of the foreign affairs of France; may God perpetuate your prosperity and make eternal your happiness." French credentials begin, "very dear and great friend . .." but if France happens to be annoyed with the other chief of state, he becomes merely, "dear and great friend." Penicillin Sprayed Brings Great Relief By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. SOME months ago I wrote in this column of a new method of using penicillin, by which it was sprayed into the lungs and bronchial tubes. 'Today doctors are reporting that they have found this form of treat- ment useful in a number of condi- tions, particularly in lung infec- tions which accompany bronchial asthma and a disorder known as bronchiectasis where there is a stretching of the small tubes of the lungs. Reported results are satisfac- tory because, according to doctors who have used the treatment, the penicillin reduces infection without causing any reactions. It also re- quires smaller amounts of penicillin than when it is given by mouth or injection and thus the cost to the patient is less. A Special Device At the time I wrote on this sub- ject, however, a special device was needed for the administration of the penicillin spray. It is quite sat- isfactory for use in the doctor's office, but too costly and cumber- some for the patient to carry about or to use in his own surroundings. For this reason, Dr. Aaron E. Fishman of Philadelphia, attempt- ed to use the penicillin with an ordinary atomizer, obtaining en- couraging results in the 15 cases treated. An ordinary nose and throat atomizer was employed with a sodium penicillin solution. A small amount of this solution is used in the atomizer at a time, and the patient is instructed to use it in one dose every three hours. The patient can carry the atomis2r and the solution with him, as long as the solution is kept cold. Part of Penicillin In carrying out the treatment, part of the penicillin is sprayed in- to each side of the nose. Then the nozzle of the atomizer is inserted | between the teeth, and the patient | breathes in deeply as the penicillin | is forced throught the nozzle, In | this way the spray reaches the windpipe and bronchi. Striking results were obtained. Blocking of the nasal passages due to swelling of the mucous mem- brane in the nose was relieved al- | most immediately. Thick secretions | in the lungs had been changed to a | thin, watery secretion which was | | easily brought, up or the discharge | was entirely eliminated. In those | instances in which the attacks of | his asthma were due to an infection, | the treatment reduced the severity | and frequency of the attacks. | Here we have another example of the quickness with which the "SALADA TE A a / medical profession always seeks to make 'treatment ever more simple, more practical and less expensive, so that it may be brought within the reach of all. German-Born Actor Commits Suicide Hollywood-- (BUP)--Ill and heart- broken because of failure to make a ccmeback, Herman Bing, 58, Ger- man-born character actor, shot and killed himself in his home. Two brief notes explained his ac- tion. "Dear Ellen", one said, "such in- somnia, I have. I had to commit suicide. Your daddy." Ellen is his daughter. The other asked "forgiveness", and said, "I tried so hard for a come- back." Famed for rolling his "R's" in character parts, Bing played in mo- tion pictures dating back to 1920, when he arrived from Germany, In Europe, he had been an opera star and once was a production chief for a German company. first annual dinner in 1802, Formal Dinner Menu | In 1892 and in 1947 | Birmingham, England, Jan. 10 ol (CP)--When Birmingham and Mid- land Devonian Society held their GETABLE CourounD dn the menu consisted of: Oysters, thick and clear turtle soup, turbot, lobster sauce, smelts, curried sweetbreads, chicken ris- soles, sirloin of beef, boiled turkey and tongue, saddle of mutton, phea- sant, Devonshire junket, apple pudding and cream, jellied and stewed fruits, cheese, salad and dessert.
