i| Coiffure for Oval Face.I 'V
.
Dear Miss Leeds—(l) I have an ovalfface, a straight Roman nose, large blue
J teyes, medium forehead and very thick,dark brown hair. I wear my hair mar-
: eeled. Would I look better with short' hair reaching to the bottom of the ear; or with a long bob, or with my hair1 done up? (2) Most every time I movef the bones in my legs crack. What isi the cause and cure of this condition?
<3) lam 17 years old. 5 feet 4' 2 inchestall and weigh 11* pounds. My
measurements are: Neck, 12 1 2 ; bust,92 >*; waist, 27; hips, 36; thigh. 20' 2 ;
calf. 13 1 2 : ankle. B*i; wrist, 6'i; shoesize, 5V2-C. Am I too tall and thin?
EILEEN.Answer—(l) Roman noses are hooked.
If your nose is straight and ratherlarge, a long-hair coiffure would bemost becoming. If. however, your noseis not larger than the average I would 1prefer the short bob for you. I really 1cannot judge this point very well with- 1out seeing you. of course. Why not let 1your friends decide which is the mostbecoming hairdress for you?
(2) You should consult a doctor 'about your diet. Tell him what you \are in the habit of eating. Your dietis probably not rightly balanced andyou are underweight. (3) The averageweight for your age and height is be-tween 121 and 125 pounds. Your neckand bust are small, but the other meas-urements are good. You are not un-usually tall, but you should try to gainabout 10 pounds. LOIS LEEDS.
Thin Hair.Dear Miss Leeds—(l) My hair Is
very thin. How can I make it grow?<2) I am 19 years old, 5 feet 8 inchestall and weigh 132 pounds. Am I over-weight? My hips measure 38 inches;how can I reduce them?
PEARL O’D.Answer—(l) Scanty hair in a young
person usually means lack of local care.Be sure to massage your scalp for 10minutes each day. Brush the hair 50times on each side with a clean brushevery day. and wash it at least twice amonth: if it is oily wash it oftener.Keep the scalp clean and free fromdandruff.
<2) You are a few pounds below theaverage weight for your age and height.Your hips are not too large for yourheight. Ido not think you can reducethem, since their width is probably dueto their bone structure and not to ex-cess fat. To keep them from becomingreally fat you must take regular exer-cise. Walk several miles a day andengage in some sort of outdoor sport.

No Magic in Beauty Creams.Dear Miss Leeds: I am in my 20s,
but my skin is getting leathery, withenlarged pores and some blackheadsaround the nose. The pores refuse toreduce regardless of how well the par-ticular skin food or astringent is ad-vertised to work. The result is neverthat pictured by the manufacturers. Doyou think that facial magnesia or witchhaael would help? Is there any way toIron out laughing lines? M. F. R.
Answer—There is no magic in beau-ty creams that can counteract the illeffects of wrong use of make-up. In-correct diet and constipation. Try thissimple home trea" ent. At bedtimecleanse your face ¦ 1 cold cream, wipeIt off and wash with plenty of warmwater and pure castile soap. Rinse andlather again. Give a final rinse in coldwater and rub your face with a piece ofice wrapped in a handkerchief. Drycarefully. If the skin feels sensitive,pat in a little astringent face cream.
Next morning bathe your face in coldwater for several minutes and dry care-
fullv. Apply your powder base andpowder, if you use any. Remember thatlocal treatments alone cannot cure thecondition. In addition you must watchyour diet, avoid constipation and exer-cise every day. See that your weight iscorrect for age and height. Pat muscleoil on the wrinkles at bedtime.

Something new for you to buy ormake is shown in the accompanyingillustration—a bath mat! And such apractical one, too.
It is made of quilted cotton: the ma-terial from which silence cloths for thedining table are made would do. Onthis is appliqued a large floral design inchambray, gingham or chintz, and the

edge is bound with a plain material tomatch the predominating shade in thedesign.
Os course, if you have the time, pa-tience and inclination, you may put twopieces of cotton sheeting together withsome padding between them and quilt ithe background by hand; but this isunnecessary, inasmuch as the machine-quilted material will do just as well andprovides an unusually firm backgroundfor a floor covering.
The flowers may be of plain or fig-ured materials and are held in positionwith fine stitching in white cottonthread or a loose blanket-stitching withmercerized floss.
Pink, light green and yellow com-bine to make an attractive mat; green,lavender and apricot are equally effec-tive. Be sure your colors are dainty.
Boiled Dinner.Wash four pounds of corned beef
quickly hi cold water. If very salty,soak for half an hour in cold water,or let come to a boll, then drain. Placethe meat in a kettle with boiling wa-ter to cover. Let cook for about fivehours, or until tender. Two hours be-fore serving add three large carrots,one small cabbage and two small tur-nips cut in quarters, and one-half hourbefore serving add six small parsnips,six medium onions and six medium po-tatoes. Serve attractively arranged ona large platter.

MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLEBY MOLLIE MERRICK.
HOLLYWOOD. Calif., May 9.—Tenyears ago a lot of movie folk were do-ing things far removed from the work (they have today.
Luther Reed, now an associate pro-ducer, was tramping from studio to istudio, trying to get work writing scena- jrios.
Henry Hobart, another associate pro-ducer. was a magazine executive.
Charles Sullivan was an engineerwith a big shipbuilding corporation.
Bert Glennon, now one of the ableyoung directors, had just been mus-tered out of the Flying Corps and wastrying to get a job as a Hollywood
cameraman. He was finding it prettytough going.
William J. Cowen was receivingmedals from the British for services inthe war. He would have laughed at
anv one who suggested movies or moviemaking. That evolved quite naturallyfrom a trip to Hollywood.
Jane Murfln was writing plays, buthad her eye on movies as a producer.Today she Is one of the best scenaristsfor talkies.
Eugene Walter was writing Broadwayplays and being paid for them. Theypay him in Hollywood—that seems to bea habit of his.
Ten years ago Hebe Daniels was mak-ing pictures with Wallace Reid. Beforethat she had appeared with HaroldLloyd. Bebe comes by her flair forhumor honestly—no better prep schoolfor a romedv career rould be foundthan apprenticeship with Lloyd.
Ask any other star where she was 10years ago. and she’d probably tell you•'At, kindergarten,” "Out in my pram,”or “Just learning to creep.”
Youth is a necessary adjunct Ingelatin circles.
Hollywood preens itself that revela-tions in recent divorces in the moviecolony have been no more colorful thanPeg Entwistle’s assertion that her hus-band snatched large handfuls of hairwhen he was contrary-minded.
The most interesting divorce of theyear was Roy D'Arcy's. His wife calledhim “just a ham actor,” to which heretorted that she was “a regular oldmeat ax.” They subsequently madeup. possibly with the resolution to keepthe next fight strictly vegetarian.

Lupe Velez was suggested for therole of Chita in Herbert Brenon's nextpicture and was gracefully declined.She was “not the type,” said this astuteIrishman.

FRANK B. HOWARD deals in a complete line of groceriesand meats at 'joo King Street, comer of Washington, down•
town in Alexandria, Va. His telephones are 1471 and 1478.
We grocers are likely to overlook one personwho is pretty important. That’s the BondBread salesman.
I’ve never met representatives of a bigcompany who showed the interest in theirwork and in my business these fellows show.I used to be wary of them. When a salesmancomes into your store and suggests that per-haps he knows more about your bread de-partment than you do, naturally you won-der. .You think he’s just trying to boost hisown business. I didn’t see the other side ofit at first.
The other side of it is that by keeping acareful record of my Bond sales the Bondsalesman makes sure that customers getonly fresh-from-the-oven bread. He leavesjust enough to carry me through until hecomes around on his next trip.
Customers compliment me on the factthat they always seem to come into the storejust after I receive my delivery of Bond.Naturally so. Because of the salesman’sprompt and regular deliveries, I get thecredit for having my Bond just right.
Really the credit should go to the BondBread salesman, for his perfect service.
