C. —I hav been going with this friend for nearly a year. Last week he gav me a bauti ful radio-phonograph console that cost three hundred dol lars. I know that he cares for me but what I want to know is why won’t he do things that I want him to do always? Ans: You expect too much of your friend. H loves you and proves it. But—he’s not the type to let any woman “hen peck.” him to the extent of dancing tp their tune about every little thing. He’s going to exercise his own judgement at tims and you may as well ap reciat this fact. You will admire him much more for doing so. S. M.—I received a letter from a man in the north selling lots as low as $75. I want to know if I should go ahead and buy one of these lots? Ans: Don’t invest any money in proprty which you have not seen. You are not familiar with this part of the country and its doubtful if you would ever care to live there. Before buying a lot anywhre—look it over and investigate the title and avoid costly complications. I shall be glad to go into your sec ond problem if you write me privately. C. B. —I have been sick for the past year and the doctors here do not seem to know my troub le. My husband is urging me to make the trip to Baltimore and go to John Hopkins for a dia gnosis. Do you think it would be a waste of money? Ans: Absolutely not. It is pre cisely what you should do sin ce you have not been able to get relief from the treatment you have received. Your hus band considers your health for more important than the mon ey he has saved and is ready and willing to spend every cent of it if necessary in order for you to enjoy better health. G. H. C.—Last November I met Joe for the first time. He was in college and' therefore did not have much money. I felt sorry for him and helped him out financially and did without to give him nice things for school. He never seemed to appreciate it one bit. In fact, he was always wanting more. When he went home this sum mer h said he would be too busy to write and asked me not to bother about it either. Now he returns this month and I want to know how to treat him Ans: As a stranger. He does not hold the same affection for you as you think you have for him. Also—he’s much too you ng for you to lose your head about. You won’t gain his fav or by dolling out your hard earned dollars. Sarch for com panionship with men around your own age. R. T.—I bought a grocery store business the first of April. I can’t see where I am making any money at all. In fact, my finances are not as good os they were before I started with | this store. A friend of mine has offered to buy me out at a good margin of profit. Should I sell or hold on as I am not happy about it at all? Ans: Lt it go. It’s not good business to hold on to an invest1 ment that does not net a profit. It would pay you to concentr ate all your effort on your cafe as it does net you a nice pro fit.

Insect control. KEYS TO AN ATTRACTIVE HOME By Maria Catarina 1. Small areas of wallpaper lo cated where they might be easily spotted or water stained may be protected by spraying several light coats of artist’s fixative over them, allowing several minutes for dry ing after each application. An ordinary fly spray device serves this purpose very well. 2. Blotting paper Is a good sub stitute for felt when glued or rubber-cemented to bases of table lamps and book ends to prevent scratching polished surfaces. 3. A brown crayon is handy for Inconspicuous repair on furniture scratches. After filling in a scratch with it, rub the marred place with the tip of a finger to blend the color and cover with furniture wax or polish. The scratch will then be difficult to detect. 4. Coating chair nailheads with colorless fingernail polish will help avoid marks caused when chairs rub against walls. 5. Delightful picture frames can be made for the kitchen or for a child’s room from the two-piece porcelain and metal screw top lids used to seal fruit Jars. Place the lid on a table with the white side up and decorate with a gay decal comania. The sealing rings may be painted in a contrasting color to harmonize with both the decals and the room. As Illustrated In the pho tograph here, pie tins from the five and dime store, painted In a like manner, with decalcomanias applied and with holes drilled near the rims, also serve as attractive wall plaques. 6. Gay potholders artistically placed in a shadow-box frame against a white background, or con trasting color, with frames painted In harmonizing shades, will add a note of cheeriness to a kitchen.

Watch That Figure SHAPELESS GIRLS ARE OUTDATED New York (CNS) — There’s just no xcuse for anybody go ing around these days out of shape! We’re putting it boldly but we mean it just that way. If you have an ounce of intel legience and what female should be lacking that?— and a little getup in the old fashion ed way, there just is no earthly reason why you shouldn’t cur ve, in the right places. For this Leap Year is one in which fashion designers seem to have conspired against the unattached males. Thev’re put everything that is humanly possible in clothes to hide wh at a young miss hasn’t got and to make it seem that she has. And they have thought up ev ery angle to tone down the flaws and make them follow the line. Let’s be more explicit. If you have bad legs, too fat, too thin, too crooked—this year thej boys need never know. And if yours are a la Diethiech—do keep them guessing is the new motto. If you’ve no hips and have always been straight as a stick—pad ’em. If you’ve too hippy or too much on the der riere, leave out the pads, but still wear the flowing skirts. Either way you can't go wrong and will still hear the whistles If you have too little waistline or none at all, wear high waist line dresses, with full skirt and only you will know the differ ence. Others will say “gosh, you’ve wasp waisteu”, when you used to cry over your straight-as-a-rod appearance heretofore. If you’ve chested chested like a young boy, pad of course and stay in the high waistline dresses. They come fully draped and were meant for you. So you see you can’t g w wrong with the new fashions. They were meant to decive. and add what God forgot. You don’t even have to starve day in and day out to look well in them. All you have to do is take brutal stock of yourself. Pull yourself apart as another woman would—scientifically! and coldly. Tell yourself title things you know no one el|e would. Then buy accordingly* There’s l^he right costume waiting for you that hides just the flaw and will make yoi* more curvaceous, more sttitif ning then ever! “What a fig* ure”, your audience will say and of course you will smile demurely.
