The ',\, chief V topic of conversation
among the social set this winter la the
"charming debutante." ;■' One of - the
older matrons said to mo recently that
■ she had never known | so many beau
tiful and delightful: buds as were on
the carpet this winter, and as she has
a most eligible bachelor j "son", she
surely should know. Many ; parties,
teas and luncheons j are given for the
young women and each week sched
ules a "coming out" party given by
the mother, sister. or aunt, following
luncheons, teas and -dances at the
Country club by the admiring friends.
And soon will , come the great sub
scription dance and the long looked for
ball by the bachelors, Really my date
• book Is so full of charming. events to
take place between now and January
1 that an "auxiliary" had become,
necessary. -

Health and Beauty Hints
Hester: You say you are taking on
flesh at a rate that dismays you, and
will faithfully follow my advice If I
tell you how to secure stylish slender
ness. I am glad to say you will not
find my directions difficult to follow,
for I do not believe in starving or vio
lent exercise to avoid obesity. Just
get four ounces of parnotis from your
druggist, dissolve it in IV4 pints hot
water and take a tablespoonful of this
harmless fat dissolver before each
meal. Weigh yourself at the end of
each week for four weeks and you will
be delighted with the result. You will
be lighter in spirit as well as body, for
parnotis benefits the general health.
Mrs. R.: To allay and soothe the ir
ritation and roughness of your com
plexion caused by hard water, sun or
winds apply a lotion made as follows:
Dissolve four ounces of spurmax in a
half-pint of hot water and add two
teaspoonfuls of glycerine. Apply with
the palm of the hand and gently rub
until dry. Use this inexpensive and
excellent face wash daily Instead of
powder or cosmetic. Spurmax pre
serves the skin and beautifies the com
plexion, making It soft, smooth and
white.
M. S.: I do not think brunettes are
afflicted with superfluous hairs on the
face any more than are blondes. Of
course black or dark hairs are more
noticeable. You can easily get rid of
them if you will use delatone. Make a
paste by mixing a little of the powder
with a little water, cover the skin from
which you wish to remove the disfigur
ing' hairs, let remain two or three
minutes, then wire off the paste and
wash the skin thoroughly with warm
water. Delatone is pretty expensive.
Druggists charge one dollar an ounce,
but it is worth it. If the hairs should
return they will be thin and almost
colorless and another application of
delatone will permanently rid you of
them.
W J G.: Especially at this season
of the year N you should be feeling ener
getic, full of life and have a good ap
petite Even though you do not feel
really sick, you should take a good
tonic to rid your blood of its impur
ities and build up your health and
strength generally. Get an ounce of
kardene from any drug store and dis
solve it with half a rup of sugar In
a half pint of alcohol; then add enough
hot water to make a full quart. This
is a splendid remedy for that run
down tired, indifferent feeling you
«neak of Take a tablespoonful before
each meal and in a short time it will
restore your appetite and free your
skin from those pimples and liver
blotches which now annoy you.
Lucy M ' You have made a great
mistake In neglecting your hair so
long But It is not too late to restore
it to its former beauty, even if.it is
"falling, scurfy and weak hair," as you
call it Regular use of a g«od quinine
hair tonic will accomplish wonders. To
make this tonic get one ounce of quin-

zoln from your druggist, dissolve it in
one-half pint of alcohol and add one
half pint of water. Rub this tonic into
the scalp and hair roots two or three
times a week and it will restore your
scalp to a healthy condition, feed the
hair follicles, giving your hair new life
and causing it to grow in thick, long
and gloS3y. Your sister will find this
same quin.zoin tonic the right and truu
remedy for her fading, dull and brittle
hair. It will stop the splitting and
breaking in ono or two applications,
but she should continue its use for
several weeks and resume the treat
ment whenever her hair requires it.
Read answer to Hermione.
Hermione: You must get the dan
druff off your head. Dandruff is a hair
destroyer; it chokes the hair, kills It
and- causes It to fall out. Don't use
soap for shampooing; soap leaves the
scalp dry and hard and streaks the
hair. I know of onljj one perfect sham
poo, and that is canthrox. All first
class druggists sell It. Just dissolve a
teaspoonful of canthrox In a cup of hot
water; pour on the head a little at a
time and rub well—precisely as you
would with any other shampoo; then
rinse the hair and scalp thoroughly
with clean warm water. Canthrox re
moves dandruff, and relieves itching
scalp. It dries quickly and makes the
hair soft, fright and fluffy. For a hair
tonic use 'quinzoin—described In tha
preceding paragraph.
A. B. R.: It has been Indeed a try
ing season for even the strongest eyes,
and you are only one of thousands who
are suffering from sore, red and in
flamed eyes. To relieve the Irritation,
redness and granulated lids, get an
ounce of crystos from your druggist,
dissolve It In a pint of water and drop
one or two drops in each eye when
ever the eyes feel tired, weak or sore.
The use of this home-made eye tonic
gives brilliance and expression to the
eyes, keeping them clear and bright.
It is a favorite toilet adjunct with
actresses and society women.
"Betty:" I don't know who said
"Any fool can catch a husband, but It
takes a wise woman to keep one" —but
It comes pretty near to being: true. For
the sake of your present and future
happiness, don't neglect your complex
lon—don't let your skin become sallow,
dark, coarse or rough; don't let It
wrinkle or sag. Use this home-mado
cream-Jelly for massaging and as a
face cream: Got from your druggist
one ounce of almozoln, dissolve it In ;i
half-pint of cold water, add two tea
spooufuls of glycerine, stir well and let
stana over night. This is "the cream
without grease"—it won't cause hair to
grow. Gently massage your face and
neck and you will find it acts on thi
skin, seeking out the deepest layers,
the deepest tissues, the deepest cell*.
and there works like Nature work*,
thoroughly and surely, for skin health,
purity, color and freshness. It not
only restores a lost complexion but
creates a new one.
