Loe - THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE FRIDAY, JANUARY 23, 1948 T BEAUTY FOR YOU Choose Your Cosmetics Wisely By HELEN JAMESON 'Women realize these days that there are no quick cures for beauty ills. They do not expect miracles to happen over night--that wrinkles will be whisked away, discolorations removed in a hurry. They do know that carefully selected cosmetics keep the skin smooth and soft, serve as a protective agent against harsh winds and atmospheric dust. Of course, it would be nice if one could find magic in a bottle of scented lotion or a jar of cream, A sort of Alladin's lamp, as it were. One rub, one wish and the loveli- mess of youth would be restored! Different preparations serve dif- ferent purposes. That fact should be kept in mind when a woman toddles forth to bring home loot from the cosmetic counter. What the dry skin needs will be of no help to the oily surface. The des- perate lady, who does not always use her head, often suffers from a surplus of remedies and over-treat- ment, There 'are zealous ladies who, in a search for the ice-cream-and- roses complexion, shadow their cu- taneous charm with an overload of make-up. There are offerings for all condi- tions. When making a purchase of cream or lotion, the customer should read the label carefully, For an oily skin, a thin cream should be used; for a dry one a heavy emollient: is best. A few health rules should be kept always in mind. They are simple enough for anyone to remember, and they count a lot toward keep- ing the skin in a normal condition. For instance, the girl whose face looks as if it were freshly buttered may be able to check the excessive exudations of the sebaceous glands by cutting down on foods that con- tain fats that excite the little skin geysers. She should have a green salad once.a day, drink fruit juices. The wise step, of course, is to find the source of any beauty grief and correct the condition. The woman with a sallow skin who puts her faith in bleaches is chasing a beauty rainbow. Her trouble is internal. She must stimu- A Physician Advises You By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. CAUSES OF INSOMNIA MANY people find it difficult to get a good night's rest. Either they have trouble getting to sleep in the first place, or else after a few hours slw ber they awaken to spend the rest of the night tossing and turn- Sleeplessness or insomnia is just a symptom, Hence, before much can be done to help the situation, a thorough study by a physician is needed to find the cause. Once the cause is found, the physician is in a position to take the proper mea- sures to correct the condition, Common Cause There is little doubt that the most common cause of sleeplessness is worry. It is not always easy to elim. || inate the cause of worry and it does little good to tell a person to stop i: | worrying when he has something to Different preparations serve differ- ent purposes, LAR BR J late the avenues of elimination-- the lungs, by deep breathing, the skin, by daily bathing with friction; the intestinal tract, by a balanced diet; the kidneys by drinking plenty of water, Astringents serve two purposes; they help the pores to contract and they have a beneficial effect upon tissues that' have started to sag. Soap heads the list of beautifiers and, unless the skin is allergic to it, should be used freely, especially at bedtime. Used with a complexion brush, it helps the = campaign against blackheads. Find a soap that fluffs into a rich lather. Rinse it away with warm water, dry the flesh with gentlé pats and apply a cream. TIPS FOR TEENS Bringing School Friends Home By --T.INOR WILLIAMS Parents who do not allow their children to invite their friends to their homes are one of the most serious problems of high school girls and boys, Everybody knows that there was less juvenile delinquency, less crime and destruction by 'teeners when ev had fun at home--when recreation, pleasures and get-toge- thers centered in the home instead of in public places.

Phone 690 girls' and boys' letters say that their parents won't let them invite their friends br dates to thelr homes because (1) the parents cling to old European ideas that it isn't "nice" for a girl to invite a boy to her house, even with a friendly group, unless they're engaged to be mar- ried or (2) modern parents won't let them use any of the facilities of their home with friends because they don't want it "mussed up"-- apparently concerned more with the appearance of the home than with their child's normal develop- ment, social experience, relation. ships, ete. . Here's one of their many letters: "I would like to ask my boy friend to come to my house, but I don't want to seem too forward. I was wondering how I could go about it, as I can't ask him over to eat or make candy, etc, because my mother won't give me the 'run' of the house. There is a map coming w in social studies that we both have to do and he is quite an ar- tist. Do you think if I asked him over to help me with it that this would be a good plan? Also, how should I make my parents under- stand and agree?" This is a grand idea, You don't need the "run" of the house to work on the map together--just a table, chairs, pencils, ete. It's a hos. pitable custom to offer guests some- thing simple to eat, so try to get soft, drinks in advance or make co- coa to serve with cookies or cake. Explain to your parents that boys-- and everybody else -- have higher regard for girls who have fun with friends at home in the normal, wholesome way instead of meeting them in questionable public places. It's their duty to allow you to do this and your right to enjoy your home in Js way.

Specializing in PERMANENT WAVING and HAIR STYLING PHONE 2583W worry about, Nonetheless, worry -- even in a good cause--can become a habit, With cooperation between doctor and patient, it is possible to | cultivate a more serene frame of mind in regard to the numberless little anxieties which so many peo- ple seem to take to bed with them. Of course, sleeplessness may be due to a number of simple things, {| such as keeping the bedroom too warm, not having enough fresh air in the room, or having too many or too few covers on the bed. Overeat- ing late at night is one of the com. monest causes of insomnia in the middle-aged. Sleeping in a room in which mirrors reflect lights into the eyes, or sleeping in surroundings that are noisy, are other factors. Then, too, illness -of one type or another may contribute to sleepless. ness because these illnesses are accompanied by pain or other symp- toms. Temporary Discomfort In many instances in which there is temporary nervousness or dis- comfort, the doctor may suggest the use of sleeping drugs. These drugs, used wisely under the direc- tion of the physician, are an impor- tant aid to the patient. They are often used before operation to save the patient from a night of worry and fear, Just as these drugs can he of great benefit they can be equally harmful when they are abused. In fact, taken too frequently, or in too large amounts, they may be ex- tremely dangerous. It has been found that people who have ac- quired the habit of taking these preparations often go to sleep just as well when a harmless pill is sub- stituted for the sleeping drug. So, if you are having trouble get- ting to sleep, consult your physi- cian, If he thinks sleep-inducing pills are necessary to tide you over, he will prescribe the proper ones in the right dose; otherwise, leave them alone. .

LJ BE foresighted and forehanded, my paper friend. Take out wrinkle insurance. Fight wrinkles before you get them. Then future birth- days won't mean a thing to you, any more than the ticking of the clock. By creaming your complexion every night you will keep the sur- face of the skin smooth and fine. By doing a bit of the right kind of massage the delicate fibers under- neath will remain firm and elastic. A tiny crease won't have a ghost of a chance to get a toe hold. That is, if you respect the laws of health, eat wisely, exercise daily, sleep en- ough, keep your lungs air-washed. Daily Soaping Soap is your good friend. Use it every night of your life. While the flesh is warm from the scrubbing, apply a heavy cream, starting on the throat, working upwards and out- ward. Do little circles over your forehead, from one side to the oth- er, then from the eyebrows up to the hair line, Place the first fingers at the bridge of the nose, sweep out- J i ward to the temples. Spread the cream over the rest of the facial area; begin a brisk slapping and patting. The idea is to make the blood streams get about their business; a part of their duties is to bring nourishment to every cell. Drying Effect Soap, harsh winds and dust 'all have a drying effect upon the skin; that is why it is wise to let the cream remain on over night. There will not be a sign if it in the morn- ing. Use cold water then, dashing it on repeatedly to bring good color- ing. Dry gently, apply an astrin. gent, if the skin is inclined to be oily, otherwise use a little light cream, letting it remain on while you have your bath and arrange your ambrosial tresses. The epidermal coating thrives on oil. It also benefits by the exercise it recelves when there is a brisk massage treatment. Even girls in their twenties should follow these rules, .

POWER ting ostrich feathers onto circles of | Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood--(AP)--You can bet that Bing, Dotty and Bob will be hitting the "road" again before 1948 is out. Each time the tri-starred film is made, the series is reported at an end. "Road to Rio" was announced as the absolutely final one. But it is doing so well at the theatres that there is already talk of a repeat. Lamour was lunching with Cros- by at the Paramount commissary when the crooner remarked, "I guess it's about time to do another 'road' show." "Yes, I guess it is," she answered. Hope has not been heard from. Fine Fettle Crosby legends are the most per. sistent of all in Hollywood. Recently he was reported (1) to be entering the hospital for a check-up; (2) to be suffering from virus X. He told me he knew nothing about either story. "I feel fine," he said. Bing is still hopeful that some- thing can be worked out with Pe- trillo so that his transcribed air show can continue. "It's a tough break--just when the program was getting its stride," he remarked.

Yes, your very health may depend upon the bag or lunch box in which you carry your mid-day meal. If you tak= home-prepared food to work health authorities suggest that you make sure that you have a 'parcel of health." A good lunch, of course, should include milk, fruit or vegetable or both, meat, fish, poultry, eggs, cheese, peas or beans, and butter- ed "Canada Approved" (or whole wheat) bread. ] If you can't tote all these to the office or shop, health officers urge you to arrange to get tham at your work-place.

The Ouslity Tea SALADA ORANGE PEKOE WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT Sitting Out a Dance ° Dear Mrs. Beeckman: A group of High School girls would like you to answer this ques- tion: At a dance, when a girl and her partner are just "sitting out" a dance, is it proper for another boy to come up and ask for a dance and for the girl to accept this in- vitation? Peggy" That depends. If the first boy is, as you call him, the girl's "partner," this probably means that the boy asked for the dance and then they agreed to "sit out" the dance, If so, this means that that dance is taken, just as much as if they were danc- ing. Therefore if another boy comes up and asks for the dance, the girl should explain that she and her partner are sitting out that dance . . . adding, if she wishes to, some- thing like, "But I'd like to dance with you later, Bob . . . will you ask me?" On the other hand, if the first boy is not really her "partner" for the dance, but they just happen to be sitting together, not "dated" for the dance, it is entirely proper for the girl to accept the other boy's invitation. As she rises to leave the first boy, she should, politely, say, "Will you excuse me. please, Bill?" How To Extend An Acquaintance Into a Friendship Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Just after New Year's I went to a beautiful luncheon party given by two women at our Country Club. The invitation was of the semi-en- graved type (names, occasion, date, place written in). One of the host- esses is a very close friend of mine and the other one was a very dear friend of hers, but only an acquain- tance of mir . I feel that, since I also shared at 1 enjoyed the hospi- tality of the F...tess who is only an acquaintance, I should make some gesture of hospitality to her. Do you agree? If so, would you please make a suggestion about this invi- tation? DT. Although actually you have no social obligation to make a gesture of hospitality to this co-hostess of the party, you may, if you wish, in- vite her to a small or general party . . but remember that you should, in courtesy to your friend who in- vited you to the luncheon, invite her also to whatever party you in. vite her friend and co-hostesses. This bow to the one through whom we have been given an introduc- tion is considered a social must by people of sure taste. How Do You Do . .. With Your "How Do You Do?" Dear Mrs. Beeckman: Is it true that it is always correct to say "How do you do" to acknowl- edge an introduction? Margaret R. Yes! Say "How do you do" to acknowledge an introduction and you'll always be right. This is the By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN standard response to an introdue-- tion. It's easy to remember; it's simple; it's safe. And these every- day words can be said with a hun- dred different inflections. Into these words you can, if you gi thought, put a world of gracious- ness, friendliness, naturalness, charming courtesy. And this rule of etiquette is one of the most im- portant rules to remember . . . and to think about, (Mrs, Beeckman will be glad te SHSWer questions submitted by rea- ers.) POINTING THE PATH Good physique, good health, good habits of eating, sleeping and exer- cise, admittedly favor attainment of a pleasing personality. On the other hand, habitual violation of the laws of moderation with respect to work, food, rest and recreation, contri- butes to worry, inefficiency and ill- health, Appreciating these facts, Canada's health authorities, as a public ser vice, are using all media of inform- ation to point paths to healthful, happy living, HOUSEHOLD HINT People who are new at handling an electric cleaner usually work too fast, pushing it about so rapidly that it has little chance to do its work.
