DON’T SIMMER THIS SUMMER Keeping coot in summer has long been a matter that baffles the best of us. While there is probably no really satisfactoiy solution to the problem other than air-conditioning, there are a number of ways of being less uncomfortable and looking at least reasonably cool. One of the first rules, of course, is to wear light weight clothes. Per sonally, I have always found cottons cooler in summer than silks, per haps because of the knowledge that they can be washed. Tight-fitting dresses and wide, snug belts should he avoided in extremely hot weath er. You can look trim and clilc without having your summer dresses as closely fitted as your winter ones. Use Make-Up Lightly Summer make-up Is Important too. Use It sparingly during the summer and choose It carefully. Your skin tone is likely to change after a few weeks of summer, so keep that in mind when applying your powder. Select the cosmetics that blend best with your coloring and then apply them lightly. Too much lipstick will melt and run be low your lip-line. Too mdeh powder will become caked and a heavy dose of rouge will probably streak as the perspiration makes your cheeks damp. Nail polish In summer should bo of a lighter hue than the deeper fall and winter shndos. The paler, pinker shades wil harmonize bet ter with pastels and will give a cool er effect. For some unknown rea son, the cooler we look, the cooler we feel. Warm and Cold Bath3 I can’t stress too much the im portance of frequent baths in hot weather. Not only are they nec essary to cleanliness and beauty, they are important to comfort as well. A cold bath in the morning will start you out refreshed for the day’s work, but in the evening it is wise to take a lukewarm batli before retiring, regardless of the tempera* ture. Lukewarm baths are soothing to the nerves and conducive t* sleep. Above all, don’t hurry._ Tak» everything in your stride and don't let anybody rush you. Remembe< that haste makes waste, and in tliif case it makes waste of beauty, cou» fort and good grooming. What are your beauty prob lems? Write Marie Downing, 1 Larieuse Beauty Foundation, * Room 521 — 319 North Fourth ' St., St. Louis, Mo., and she will be glad to answer them. Be sure to enclose a self-addressed j stamped envelope. Mrr. Ethel Davis, the wife of that famous fin r bail mteher u former years, Goldie Davis, w ir on the stroll looking and feeling good. You never get to old to en joy yourself. You live only once, so you had better get out once and a while because people are dying now who neved have died before, so get out and have a nice time. Go to church or ball games or wherever you want to go but go somewhere. Don’t stay at home 24 hours per day.
