When you see them coming down the street you want to turn and run. How do they get that way? What do they gain? Any woman who has respect for her fellow creatures, that their shortcomings are much who realizes that their shortcom- ings are much like her own, who has tolerance and a kindly soul, finds no difficulty in being amiable. The disagreeable individual must find herself uninteresting company. You'd think she'd want to get away from herself. The jolly soul has a good time all the time because, if there isn't anything or anybody else to laugh at, she can laugh at herself. Blessed with a charming person- ality, a woman has a warmth and radiance of which everyone who comes in contact with her is imme- diately aware. You see it in the sparkle of her eyes, in her kindly smile, in the movements of her hands. There is no chip on her shoulder--no complaints, no whines, no mean criticisms of other mortals. She's stepping pretty and, if she is your friend, you step along with her, find her an inspiring compan- ion. A clever woman can create charm out of a few tender qualities that she may possess; another can mix up a dozen of them--the lucky lady --and produce an intoxicating glam- or. There are so many ways of mak- ing oneself attractive that it is a cruel shame that there are any sour-doughs among us. Keen perception and powers of observation are personality-builders. Cast your eyes upon the human le- mons; don't ever let yourself be like them. Look at the sweet peach. es, ever gay, ever interesting; take them for models, One just has to use one's head. We suspect that some heads are just used for carry- JAMESON Don't let yourself become a human lemon, ; ® BF * ing hats. Nothing goes on inside. Maybe the sour-doughs can't help being that way. Who knows? How did they come by their repellent disposition? Were they handed to *them by some mean forefather? The woman with a pleasing per- sonality is kind to everyone, even the haughty woman next door and the dog that digs up her lawn. She knows that if she isn't tolerant she will hate herself. She is responsive because she has an understanding of human nature. She doesn't ex- pect other people to be saints or to mold their manners according to her code. Her friends, grateful for her com- pany, will never notice if she does not sport the latest hair-do or has forgotten to put on make-up. To them she possesses beauty of high rating, WHAT SHOULD 1 DO ABOUT -- Shaking Hands When Introduced? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN : Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Last evening my sister and I went to a party at the home of a mutual friend of ours. Shortly after we arrived I was introduced to a very good-looking and attractive boy, and as he was acknowledging the introduction he held out his hand to shake hands with me. I never shake hands when I am in- troduced to a boy or man, and so I didn't extend my hand, He im- mediately put down his hand, and in a moment or two he joined efi other group. I didn't have a chance > talk with him again; he didn't even come to say "good night" to me. My sister saw what had hap- pened, and she sald he gave me the brush-off because of my rude- ness to him 'about not shaking hands, Is she right? I had always thought that it is the girl's privilege to choose whether or not she wished to shake hands when she is intib- duced to a man. \ ~Iris, Yes, your sister is completely right about your rudeness . , . and right too. I imagine, about why you got the brush-off from this attractive boy. You encountered the one fun. damental exception to the offering- to-shake-hands rule, and didn't use your head in meeting it with natur- alness and grace.

Send your order to DAILY TIMES GAZETTE Pattern Department, you said, that it is the woman's pri- vilege to decide whether she wishes to shake hands with a man who is being \itroduced to her, and (2) that the man is not supposed to ex- tend his hand until she offers to shake hands. However, if a man who is instinctively cordial spon- taneously ppts out his hand, a lady of course must accept it. Think a little about this 1 response and you will understand, I am sure, that you were rude and inconsider- ate to ignore this young man's prof- fered hand . . . and obviously you hurt and embarrassed him so deeply that he gave you'the brush-off so that you wouldn't have another chance to humiliate him. Profit by this lesson, my dear girl . .'. and don't ever let a general rule take precedence over kindliness and con- sideration for the 'ather person, (By the way, here's another les- son ... a man is introduced to a woman. So your "I was introduced to a boy" is incorrect). Suggestions For The Bride's Going-Away Corsage Dear Mrs. Beeckman: When my flance and I talked with my florist about the corsage my flance is to send me to wear with my going-away costume, he (the florist) suggested a corsage 'made of white flowers, perhaps gar- "[denias, tied with bright silver or gold ribbon. I knew exactly what I wanted for my bridal bouquet, but I've never really thought about what I would like for my going-away cor- sage. What do you think of his suggestion? (I am going to wear a dark green travelling suit). --Dorothy R. I'm not at all enthusiastic about your florist's suggestion. To begin with, white flowers may hot com- L'ement your green spit, probably wot offer an interesting or dis- tinguished contrast. A spray of brown green orchids would be > with your dark green sult, or, .nexpensively, for an aut- umn wedding, a corsage of small brown chrysanthemums tied with a narrow green ribbon of the same shade as your suit, or a corsage of yellow rosebuds, perhaps Talisman Fig hong hi 80! n lacks distinc- tion . . . have your florist tie your corsage with narrow ribbon that matches either the flo or the foliage or the suit you are wear, The idea is to have the fl 's, not the ribbons, "possess" corsage. Good Manners Necessary Today By Mrs. Beeckman Good manners, the ability and grace to get along with people, are necessary to have, increasingly nec- Salty, in today's world when you meet 50 many people of so many differing types. (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions submitted by readers.) OVERSEAS PARCELS The Customs and Excise De. partment of Great Britain states that all goods sent to this country e liabl for duty charges, but #decial concessions are made in the case of foodstuffs, provided the parcels are unsolicited and do not weigh more than 22 lbs, each, 'When, however, parcels contain goods other than foodstuffs, the ent're contents are liable for duty and purchase tax, The best plan is to send food parcels separately, as no. tax is charged on them. It is difficult to give an indica- tion of the duty charged on clothes, etc., as all depends on the material. The duty on cotton stock'ngs is 20 'per cent of" the value. On silk stockings it is 43 1/? per cent. Small parcels centaining towels are often ad- Oshawa. mitted duty free. A Physician Advises You By HERMAN'N. BUNDESEN, M.D. EVERYONE GETS MEASLES Every mother knows that measles is one of the most highly contagious of all the diseases of childhood and now that schools are opening, they are concerned about their~children catching this disease. One case in a school or a neighborhood means an outbreak, and if one child in a family comes down with it, the others are sure to follow unless they have already had it. This is because measles ig one of the relatively few diseases to which everyone--with the exception of babies under six months--is suscep. tible, Strangely enough, most young babies seem to have a natu. ral protection * against it, so that cases under six months are uncom mon and under four months very rare indeed. Life-Long Immunity However, this universal suscepti- bility is balanced by the fact that one attack, as a rule, confers life long immunity. Thus, measles occurs twice in the same person. Up to the present, unfortunately medical science has found no way of protecting a child against meas- les as can be done against diphther- ia. Such protection as we can give lasts only for two or three weeks, and hence, it is usually given only after a child is known to have been Three substances are used for producing temporary protection against measles. Convalescent se- rum, secured from a person who is recovering from measles; immune globulin prepared from the placen- ta or afterbirth and a substance taken from the blood which is known as gamma globulin. To prevent an attack, these sub- stances must be given by injection into a muscle within three days af- the measles. If given five or six days after exposure to measles, they will make the attack milder. For a complete preventive measure, some times two doses are used. The first is given as soon after exposure as possible, and the second five or six days later. Treatment of Measleg 'The treatment which Dr. Archi- bald L. Hoyne, of Chicago, employs in measles in our Chicago Contag- fous ase Hospital, is as follows: The patient is put to bed in a well- ventilated room. 'The drug known as idopyrine is administered thred or four times daily for a per- lod qf three to four days.. Dr. Hoyne has never seen any harmful effects. from the use of this prepa- ration in the proper way. He has found that this drug reduces fever, Jostens the cough and may even be ul in dimin the bil- ities of mice iki He has also found that the con- valescent measles serum is of doubt- ful value after the patient has con- tracted the disease, and also that the use of gamma globulin does not seem to be justified. If a patient with measles devel- Ops pneumonia, he should be plac- ed in an oxygen tent and given one of the sulfonamide drugs or pepi- cilin, the brain) When this occurs, it gener. ally d¢velops on the fourth or fifth day oe the skin rash y eating encephalitis, the pa- tient is usually placed in an a tent and given an injection of glu- cose into a vein. Measles convales- cent serum has also been employed, and injections of whole blood into a vein are beneficial in some cases, 2508 LAND ANSWERS .: Is a burning sensation at times in the stomach a sign of, can- Oh You Smoothie It's modern design, aff right!
