which I 1 I 1 hope is 13 not a difficult one I 1 I 1 am asking how a young jady lady should act look and dress to he be popular among friends and gen clemen with best wishes GOLDEN CLOW orangeville Orang eville ul ut this is quite a big question and a pertinent one in tunes times like these isn t it dear hirst act naturally do not try to act like anyone but yourself as aa an unnatural manner is not in the least attractive however I 1 am taking it for granted that it is not natural for you to be boisterous and hoydenish but that you are rather one of the timid ones else you wouldn t be asking any one to help you but would feel that you were not in need of any advice on the subject try to have a happy smiling countenance and do not use too much in the way of cosmetics I 1 don t think the young girls with pa paint mt ed lips and cheeks and faces that look ai as if they had been dipped in a flour barrel look right do you it is like gilding the rose A little powder to take the shine off isn t going to hurt anybody but I 1 in m sure that is all you need As for the dress just don dont t go to extremes and you will be all right rolled hose skirts to the knees bobbed hair and transparent waists may bring you a sort of popularity but not the kind you are after I 1 am sure wear your skirts short but not TOO short and do not accept the exaggerate ed syles of hair dressing now in vogue dress neatly and quietly be pleasant and courteous always and one ef of these fine mornings you will wake up to find you have the best kind ot of popularity larity don t you think I 1 am right and here s hoping tor for the best of a f everything for you dear helen brooks I 1 I 1 will thank yo you u very much if you va can help me my face always had a few blackheads but now I 1 find it if cov ered with tan blotches I 1 also have an itching scalp i 1 hank you 0 B coalville Co alville brown spots on the face are caused by many different things and you told 41 te really nothing about them there fore I 1 am afraid I 1 cannot help much they might be liver spots caused by a torpid liver or there may be something else wrong with your health not knowing what it is I 1 can only advise you to see your physician and have him tell you what is causing these spots in your case and then we will have something to go on possibly a good freckle remover might help if you can call not get anything of the kind there write me and I 1 will tell you where you may obtain it if the itching scalp is caused by dandruff there are a number of rein edies for tins this try shampooing shampoo mg your hair good with physicians and sur geon s soap massaging the scalp thor hughly with the tips of the fingers and pulling a small strand at a time until you have been all over the die he d this brings the blood to the surface and stimulates the circulation and if it you will do this every night before retiring I 1 think you will soon see a general im un grovern rit in the hair and scalp dear miss aliss brooks I 1 am now tal ial ing the liberty of writ ing to ask a question I 1 I 1 am a boy seeni enteen een years of age and as yet haven t f been able to go with any g rl they the y seem to turn me down I 1 I 1 put the blame on my not knowing manners of I 1 agh socia society v if you can tell fell me nw what is wrong sincerely yours V W idaho I 1 suppose th s seems pretty knous serious to you but really you know you ar arl fairly eung oung yet and ought not to have been turned down many tunes perhaps you are a little bit diffident and self conscious when in the corn com pany of girls and it seems to be a failing of the fair sex se to rather adm dm re th tn afif if assertive and bold in a man min but I 1 don t advise you to carry these latter traits too far as there is such a thing as over doing it you know it always helps a lot to feel at one s ease case and to know what hat is the proper thing to do in all circumstances and if you arc are not acquainted with wilh the little matt Ts rs of eit quette that are always cropping cropp jig up lp it would be a good plan to buy you a good book on th s subject and rca read a up on it and then pr aftic what you ead cad whenever opportunity prevents pre ants it fit elf if you do not know of sich a book write maga n and I 1 will ill tell you the names of one or two of the best one ones 9 1 I do not feel that your our pred preda cal tent is adyth n to worry about bul that matters will right sn in a 1 very short time just have confidence in yourself and it will help a lot you have my best wishes |
