BEAUTY QUESTIONS ANSWERED Colffuro for Oval Face

Dear Misc Lceda-(l) I h:vo m oval face, a. straight Roman nose. large blue eyes. medium forehead and very thick dark brown hair. I wear my hair marcelled. Would I look better with short hair reaching to the bottom of my ear or with n. long bob, or with my hair done up? (2) Most every time I move the bones in my legs crack. What is the cause and cure of this condition? (3) I am 1'1 years old, 6 feet 4% inches tall and weigh lli pounds. My measure- ments are: Neck, 12%; bust, 82%; waist, 27; hips, 36; thigh, 20%; calf. 13H; ankle, 8%; wrist, 0%; shoe size, ﬁle-C. Am I too tall and thin?

EILEEN.

Answer — (l). Roman noses are hooked. If your nose is a straight and rather large, a long-hair coif- fure would be most becoming. If however, your nose la not larger than the average I would prefer the abort bob for you. 1 really cannot judiZB this point very well without seeing you, of course. Why not let your friends decide which is the most be- coming hairdreaa for you?

(2) You should-consult : doctor about your diet. Tell him what you are in the habit o! eating. Your diet is probably not rightly balanced and you are underweight. (3) The aver- a weight for your age and height is b tween 121 and 125 pounds. Your neck and bunt are lmall, but the other measure ‘ are 8005- Y“ are not unusually tail, but you should try to gain about ten pounds.

My hips measure 38 inches". how can I reduce them? PEARL 0'D. Answer-O) Scanty hair in a You“! person usually means luck of local care. Be sure to massage your seal? for ten minutes each day. Brush the hair fifty times on each :idc with I- clean brush every day. ind wash it it least twice a month; i1 it i: oily, wash it oftener. Keep the lcalP @1915 5M free from dandruff. (2) You are n. few pound: below the average weight for your age. Ind height. Your hips are not too large for your height. I do not think you can reduce them. since their width is probably due to their bonY structure and not to excess fat. To keep them from becoming really fat you must take regular exercise.

'Are Children Worth While?-How to Make a Husband Provide a Real Home for His Wife. Do Men or Women Take Love More Seriously ‘I

Dear Miss Dix-My husband is very anxious for children, but I don't want any. Bringing them into the world involves a lot of luflering and danger on the woman's part and after that she has practicauy to devote he!‘ life to them for the next ten or twelve years. They i duct a lot of money to roar and then like as not they turn out badly and are a disgrace to you instead of :. comfort. I can't see where children pay.

' M. B. P.

Answer:

That is because you have never had any children, Mn. M. B. P. By the same token a. blind man does not know how beautiful a sunset may be nor does a deal man realize how ravishing the music of a sym- phony orcheati-a is. Once you held your own baby in the crook of your arm and felt the thrill of its little hand clinging to yours you would know how children pay.

Of course, they coat c. lot. Bo does everything else that is worth having. There is nothing for nothing in this hard-boiled old world of ours. We have always got to settle with the ﬁddler. We have to pay for even living, and if we sat down and ﬁgured out everything to the last detail perhaps we would not ﬁnd it worth while to live at all.

You have to pay for the food you eat by your labor in buying :nd cooking it. You have to pay for your home by rower-ending labor in keeping it clean and sweet. You have to pay for your husband by making many sac- riﬁces of your own taste and comfort. ‘Jeu have to pay for your friends by courtesy and consideration. For everything youget you have to pay.

Children woift cost you more than any other luxury, except for the great initial price of child birth. That is a great price, but it is one that a brave woman faces wtth a high heart for the reward it brings her, wiuie as for the danger, it is uarcely to be regarded in these days when we think nothing o! risking our necks in automobiles and crossing the streets and going up in airplanes.

As to why children are worth while, consider these points: ﬁrst, they are the greatest pleasure in life. You may see nothing particularly fascin- ating and alluring in a little, red-faced, squirming infant that belongs to some one else, but when it is your own baby you will see ineﬂable beauty in a countenance that looks like a cross between a cream cheese and a. lobster and you will spend hours in which you are thrilled at watching it breathe.

Every whimper that it makes will be the music of the spheres in your ears. and when To say! "Ma-ma" for the ﬁrst time you will be 50 excited you will want to have it broadcast over the radio to a waiting world. Seeing a little child's mind develop is the most fascinating sport that you will ever engage in, and if you miss that you will have cut yourself out of one of the greatest pleasures in life.

Next, children pay because they give us an interest in life. when you get :lon| toward midi-ll: age and, after you will have sci-i; of lest interest, m yourself. You won't be as keen about having things or doing things as you used in be. Your story is told and you know that you will never do any oi the wonderful things that you used to dream of doing when yu were youngg

Bill- 11 W" hi" children you can live your life over again in them. You

will ﬁnd it is a lot more fun to buy frilly clothes for a pretty young daughter

than to spend your money on ﬁnery for afat, middle-aged old woman who: looks about the same in everything. You will get lots more kick out of buy- ,- irig a- sport car for a young son who will be simply wild over it than you will l out of getting this year's model for yourself. And you will believe that John i and Mary are geniuses who are going to make the grade that you never could ‘

quite negotiate. l

Listen to mother brag about Mary's beaux. Listen to father boast of; the success that John i: making. They 8.11 have m’ fmcrest in life, aorne- ; thing vital that the childless people haven't got. § . Children pay because they are the real tie that binds a husband and} wife together. Many a. woman's hold on her husband is through hai- child- i ren. Hut for them he would leave her and go to some woman who fa more i truly his mate than she it. And if a husband and wife really love each! other, than the children make them truly one, because they are bound to-l gather by : vital interest and they have in common and by the memories of, cradles they have bent over, of sick bets they have watched beside, of al million hopes and fears and ambitions they have shared together.

Oh. yes, children pay, Mrs. M. B. P., even in a financial sense. Look about you and see the old parent: who but for their children would be lni almahousea. Look about you and see the old parents WhOBe children are making their last days sweet and beautiful with love and devotion and who but for them would be lonely old men and women at the mercy of hlrelinga.

Tho woman who refuses to bear children robs herself. She robs her country and she robs he: husband. She cheats on ifatirre. Ifshi did not mean to give her husband children she had no right to marry.

DOROTHY DIX.

Dear Dorothy Dlx—1 have been married eight years to a mln who is very kind and devoted to me and whom I love very much, but during all of this time we have lived in one housekeeping room. It isn't because we can- not afford something better, as my husband makes a. good nlasy and we have no children, but he has found that I am tidy and can getllong this way and although he is always promising to give me a home. he never doesf it. Now living in this way has got on my nerves and I feel that I can't stand it any longer. Bo what would you advise? RODAI-I.

Abner: That is easy, Rodah. You have the remedy your own hands. Quit’ being neat and orderly and keeping Werything cked away. 14st your one; room get so cluttered up with the cooking utensil: and the dishes and the food‘ and the clothe: that your husband will have to have n search warrant to ﬁnd :' club lhirt, and it will get on hi: nerve: and he will lot you n. better place to live.
