Boy Friend
Is Jealous,

► By Virginia Let
•Dear Virginia Lee: We are two
grhool girls and have another girl
fnend who has a boy friend Every
time our girl friend looks at a boy,
or has two or three dances with
o'her bo vs, this boy friend of hen
gets jealous and says she cannot
dunce with him any more.
"They are not engaged, so we think
he Is foolish to be so jealous. Please
ndvise us what to tell her. because
she doesn't have a good time when
he is nagging at her. He ditched her
once to go with us two. You never
see him with boys. He is always with
a bunch of girls, and Is getting the
name of being a sissv

I art so selfish that they spoil her
V’od times by jealousy If she dances
with other boys he can dance with
other girls. I suppose, unless they
have an agreement that they shall
dance only with each other all even

as she promises.
Make it a rule, girls, to be fair in
your dealings with everyone—your
boy as well as girl friends—and to
let the boys go who would make you
unhappy through always wanting
their own way. Of course I know
that Its easier said than done.

Beauty Needs
More Than
Cosmetics
B> Alicia Hart
XfcA Service SUff Writer
"1 cant spend money on expensive
preparations, but I do want to have
nice skin and hair" writes a girl in
a Middle Western city. What should
I do to keep my complexion lovely
through the years?”
The be.-t answer. It seems to me.
is the old rule that I talk about
cor. tantly — Keep Healthy! In ad
dition. make the most of beauty aids
which cost a negligible amount.
Fresh water (.eight glassfuls a day',
a reasonable amount of exercise,
eight hours sleep each night and
plenty of fresh air are the best beau
ty treatments in the world. They
cost nothing, yet they practically
guarantee rosy cheeks, shining eyes,
glossy hair and a supple figure.
To take a daily bath involves so
little expense each month that It
would be silly to try to set it down
on paper. However, cleanliness is
one of the first requisites of loveli
ness and the woman who bathes
dallv. using a bath brush on back,
shoulders and arm . is certain to
have a fresh charm that Is close kin
to beauty.
Smiling e\es and a nice disposi
tion have an infinitely more import
ant bearing on beauty than anv
amount of preparations that are to
be rubbed on the surface. If you get
enough sleep take exercise and eat
the right food, thares no reason un
der the sun why you should go'
around with a »our expression. Learn
to think plea?ant thoughts about the
people you know, the situations you
are forced to face. Remember that
mere pretttness can be painted on
the surface, but true beauty comes
from within. Stop worrying about
lack of money to spend on creams
and lotions and do the best you can
with material that costa little but i
which is much more effective.

FEBRUARY 8. 1835-Prairie dogs,
—timid, sociable and gregarious
occupied "towns” scattered irregu
larly over the prairie* of western
xas. Manv such habitations still
I n a in Prame dogs dig deep bur
rows in the ground, the entrances
to which are surmounted by mounds
of earth thrown up in the excava
tion. They are tan and lawn colored
and about a foot long, of very stout,
squat and paunchy form, with short
tail, low ears and long strong io»‘
claws; and came by their name be
cause of the locality in which they
live and because of their cry. which
is much like the barking of a young
dog. Since they subsist entirely on
» getable food, old timers used to
say that If they had been given a
name indicative of their relationship
to their cousin*, the squirrels, they
would have long since been extinct.
Often they are compelled to give up
part* of their burrowed homes to
rattlesnakes and owls, when the part
the usurper occupies is cut off from
any connection with others. Their
"town*” oft^n comprise a hundred
acres or mcle, and many times an
unwary horseman's mount has been
crippled when its hoofs went into
one of the subterranean passage
way*. Men who. for the sport of the
thing, have observed tie.1 antics of
prairie dogs, say that certain of
them appear to be entrusted with
the responsibility of tranquility and
good order in their villages When
anything unusual happens to break
the silliness of the prairie, the little
fellows whisk into their holes where
they remain while some peer out for
brief moments to cautiously*observe
the object of their sca#e. occasion
ally darting to another hole and
back again as if to keep their fellow
villagers informed and comforted.
