Few career girls have just one . job, that of bringing home the bacon 'and spinach. Nearly all of them have a certain amount of home . work to do. Clothes have to be mended, stockings darned and un- dies laundered. Finding time for beautifying efforts is a problem.

It afflicts so many people, it is so painful and ultimately, so crippling that doctors have tried a great variety of drugs and treatments to | give their patients relief.

Some girls are able to shampoo their Jocks and 'put them up in curl- hair in a chic and becoming man- ner. Others have no gift for that sort of thing, so must seek profes- sional attentions. The manicure can be done at home but results are nothing to rave about unless the nalls are anointed every night to keep the cuticle free of the nail fabric. As for complexion care, that's easy. Ten minutes of face washing, creaming and patting just before bedtime will usually turn the trick. That is, if one removes dust new highlights during the day. Making a new face for dinner means clearing the cutaneous pre- mises of whatever atmospheric de- bris happens to be there. If a girl is smart enough to hold down a good job, she is smart enough to make the best of the looks that the Lord gave her. Many celebrated business women, and those ia highly paid professionaal lines, are examples of the brains- 'and-beauty combination. If "these women, rushed with appointments and conferences, can manage to ap- pear chic and smart, the run-of- the-mill wage earners who have Saturday off shauld be able to make certain. To postpone the shampoo, are keen observers. The boss wants his employees to be perfectly groomed, so they will look efficient and businesslike. 3 The girl who can hold a good job should also be able to make the best of her looks. L BE BR Some of the smartest clothes this season are designed for office work- ers, They are plain of color, have good lines and display a bit of creamy neckwear. They call for cleverly-applied, discreet make-up. The loveliness of any frock evapo- rates before drab skin, pale lips, and messy eyebrows, . Cosmeticlans have designed small kits suitable to tuck into the drawer of an office desk. They consist of cleansing cream, a bland soap, hand lotion, powder, rouge compact and lipstick. With these aids at hand, one can meet the boy-friend for dinner with a freshly decorated face: ® Guard Winter Woollens From Damage by Moths L 4 A three-point programYof care for winter. woollens wilp bring clothes out of summer storage without loss of shape or damage from moths next fall. First need, say experts, is to make sure woollens are spotlessly clean. The tiniest food spot left on the fabric may be a banquet table for moth grubs and larvae, Other types-of stains, if allowed to "set" for months, may be im- possible to remove later. Woollens that won't - launder should be freshly dry-cleaned be- fore storing. Launderable gar- ments should be washed in tepid water, mild suds. Knitted apparel should be lifted from the rinse water, squeezed lightly and rolled imme- diately in a turkish towel to blot up excess moisture without stretching elastic fibres. Dry away from heat. Second step is careful pressing. Pin pleats in place, draw button holes together and place dry, firm-bodied pressing cloth over Dampen the cloth -- not the wool -- and press lightly with warm iron, : Stop pressing while wool is oll 211111) Regulator is DR.

For that, the driest, coolest spot in the house is the safest summer home for all woollens. Whether your storage space is a chest, bag or box, it should be an airtight fortress against moths. Gummed tape is excel. lent for sealing paper folds against these invaders. Before enclosing the woollens, spray wth moth repellent or sprinkle moth crystals liberally between woollen folds, into pockets of gar- ments and storage container crevices, Don't jam woollens together in a small space. . Freshly dry-cleaned clothes can be stored in their ecleaner's bags providing all holes through which moths can enter are sealed, As an added precaution, the practical housewife will check at least twice during the summer for any trace of moths. Respray- inz and resealing woollens is eas- jer and cheaper than replacing garments, Dessert Conscious?

Before beginning X-ray treat- ments, however, it is important that other measures be used to help relieve the distress which often makes the patients nervous and pulls down his resistance.

Some phtients are also benefited by the. use of thyroid ex- tract, particularly if there is a de< ficiency of thyroid secretion. The diet should be well-balanced . and care should be taken not to permit excessive amounts of starchy foods and sweets. 4 The X-ray treatments during the early stages of the disease are given three times a week for two or thres weeks and then once a week for five or six weeks. In chronic cases one or two treatments are given weekly for as long as seems neces- sary to control the symptoms, In Other Treatments As in all other treatments for arthritis, the X-ray is not helpful in all cases, It is therefore sug- gested that from four to six treat- ments be given and if they bring relief from the pain the treatments should be continued. Better results have been obtained with X-ray treatment in bursitis than in arthritis, In these condi- tions also the treatments are given once or twice a week for a period of six to eight weeks. In acute conditions, the first one or two treatments may make the symptoms worse, so that some pain- relieving drug may have to be given for a few nights. Gradually as the X-rays take effect the use of these drugs can be stopped. Of course, the doctor will decide in just what cases X-ray treatment for chronic a and bursitis should be BANANA COOKIES "1% eo. sifted flour, % tsp. baking soda, 1 tap! salt, % tsp. nutmeg, % tsp. cinnamon, % c. shortening, 1 ©. sugar, 1 egg, 1 c. mashed bananas, 1% c. rolled oats, % c. choppéd nuts, 3% c. raisins, Sift together flour, soda, salt and spices.

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I hold a secretarial position, and although I have never met my chief's wife, I have often spo- ken to her over the telephone, and both have been most thoughtful and most kind to me during ill- ness and death in, the family. They have one small daughter and, to show my appreciation of their kindness to me, I sent her a small gift on her birthday, Now the mother is in a hospital, hav- ing just had another child, and I wonder whether it would be ap- propriate for me to send a gift for the baby, or perhaps flowers for the mother, or do you think it might appear as though I were "trying to get in good with the boss?" A.L. Your chief and his wife, as is obvious from their kindness to you, are people who think in terms of thoughtfulness to others, and so, I am sure, it would not be in their nature to stoop to misin- terpret your thoughtfulness to them, This new mother will, I'm sure, appreciate your sending her, either to the hospital or to her home, a box of flowers with perhaps a tiny bouquet of small white flowers for the new baby. Or if you prefer, and if you think she may have many flowers sent to her, you may send a small gift, thoughtfully chosen, for the ba- by. Three Questions About Her Kirst . Visiting-Cards Dear Mrs. Beeckman: In June I am going to gradu- ate from High School, and for a graduation present my mother is ordering personal cards for me. My tirst use of these cards will be to enclose with the invitations to my Commencement exercises. About these Mother and I have three questions, Will you answer them, please? 1. My name is Elizabeth, but I'm 'always called "Betty." Would it be correct for me to use '"Bet- ty" on these cards? 2. Alsp I don't like my middle name, and secretly I'd like to drop it at this time when I have my first "formal" cards. Must I use my middle name on these cards? '3. And should I use "Miss" be- fore my name? Betty 1. These cards are forma! (as - you yourself say in your second question), and to use & nickname on them is incorrect" informality. Carry out the formality of these cards by using "Miss Elizabeth Fuller" , , , then when on occa- sions later you wish, for example, to enclose a card in flowers or & gift to=an intimate friend, you can cross off this formal name and write "Betty" above it, with the mesige underneath, 2. You certainly may drop yout middle name if you don't like it, and if your parents don't 'object .., and I hope they won't object. Mainly middle names are fairly meaningless and it is pointless to hang on to them. if you -really don't want to . . , and I heartily agree with you that this moment in your life is a perfect time for you to drop the middle name you dofi"t like. 3. Yes, use the "Miss." A Graduation Present For His Best Girl Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I have been going around with 'a girl for about four months, and I'm very fond of her.

Legless, One-Armed Teacher Offers Hazell Dell, Sask, May 28 (CP). --A 35-year-old housewife and school teacher, who lost both legs and an arm when she was nine years old, today is offering to leave her farm home to help in rehabili- tation of Canada's legless or arm- less veterans. Mrs. George Taylor of this dist- rict 120 miles northeast of Regina hopes to have her offer before the proper authorities before she gives up her teaching position at the end of June, "What I have done for myself I can do for others," the attractive mother of two children said.
