Girls Advised to Study Characteristics Needed To Secure Friendships

Take Advantage of the Fact That Most People Like To Be Considered Important, Grant Favors and Appreciate Attention, Jane Tells ‘Wallflowers.’

If you are in trouble write to Jane Jordan. She will help you with your problems by her answers to your letters in this column.

5 = ” = = "”

DEAR JANE JORDAN—We are two girls 18 years of age who are considered wallflowers. How should a girl act to become popular? What does she have to do? We are decent and don’t like fast girls but they always seem to be getting places. Which kind of women do men prefer? And what should a girl talk about when she dances? TROUBLED. ANSWER—There have been a number of books written recently giving various simple requirements for popularity. The most outstanding among these is Dale Carnegie’s “How to Win Friends and Influence People.” The enormous sale which this book has enjoyed indicates that there are millions like you and your girl friend who are baffled by the problem of getting along with others. Usually a child who has played with other children from babyhood is not troubled in later life with shyness and timidity which springs from fear of others. His early training in co-operation is a valuable asset which cannot be replaced by reading a book. Nevertheless, books help by placing information at the adult's disposal which should have been supplied by parents at an earlier age. The qualities listed as likable by those who have made a study of the subject are cheerfulness, tolerance, veracity, energy, sympathy, tact, honesty, dependability, unselfishness, modesty, gratitude, self-reliance, self-restraint and helpfulness. You might check yourselves to see how many of these qualities you possess and try to develop those on which you are short. According to these investigators, people like to feel their own importance, to grant favors and to have others know about them. They like to be asked for advice, to share confidential information, and to have their small wants studied. A girl is always flattered when a young man remembers her favorite brand of cigarets, and the young man who is invited to dinner at a girl's house is more than pleased to find his favorite dish on the table. People like to think that you share their interests. Find out the pet hobbies, convictions and opinions of the persons you wish ve charm. Acquire some knowledge of their subjects and be prepared to talk to them on their own grounds. Read, keep your eyes open, and have a fund of information to draw on when the necessity for conversation arises. Remember that others crave recognition as much as you do. Give it and youre certain to receive it. Contrary to popular opinion people would much rather grant ‘favors than receive them. The sense of gratitude which one feels for favors received is counteracted by a feeling of obligation. “He who hath onc> done you a kindness, will be more ready to do you another than he whom you yourself have obliged,” said the sage Ben Franklin. To give makes one feel superior. To receive make one feel inferior. That is why people who are on relief are not happy about it. The other fellow is always proud of his own judgment, his knowledge, his taste and all other qualities. Let him continue to think well of himself if you would be popular. Do not arouse in him a feeling of subjection or weakness. He will hate you for it. But if you appreciate his worth he will think well of you for thinking well of him. JANE JORDAN.

Arch Eyebrows Bit

Hair should look soft, be held close to the cheeks, then tapered in on a line with the mouth. It often is a good idea to arch the eyebrows siightly, starting them back a trifie from the inside corner of the eye. If the chin tends to recede, the tip can be covered with a lighter powder. Regardless of the shape of your face, if chin recedes (as many do), try powdering it first, using a lighter shade than you put on the rest of

East's contract is four spades. Apparently the game is ironclad, there being only one ioser in each of three suits. But South, after winning the first trick, can make a lead that will give his side four tricks if it is properly followed up. What is the play? AAT ¥1054

Solution to Previous Problem By WILLIAM E. MKENNEY American Bridge League Secretary ASY entry into the hand of the declarer usually is assured at a trump declaration. Entry to the dummy at a critical moment may require careful preparatory planning by the player. Often it is the posession of entries, or lack of foresight in creating them, that spells the difference between success and failure of a bridge hand. In today’s hand the declarer obviously has nine tricks, but the tenth and crucial one is not quite apparent, North used the jump overcall to show a strong suit, justifying a raise from partner on holdings he otherwise would pass. Other players would have doubled with North's hand and shown the spades later, but the question of bidding is of lit-

Whether you are young or old, short or tall, do spend some time studying your features. Experiment with various shades of makeup and new ways to get it on. Don't be content with your old hairdress unless you know positively that it really is the best style for you. Try to figure out ways and “ieans to dramatize your best points and to disguise the less attractive ones.

Wash Furniture

If the mention of water on a tabletop recalls a tragic picture of the whitish ring left by that vase of flowers last summer, you may be surprised to learn that your prized mahogany table or walnut secretary can be washed. In fact, washing with a cloth which has been wrung out of thick mild soapsuds is the best way we know of for quick and easy cleaning. To follow up, wipe with a mixture of one quart of hot water, one tablespoon of turpentine, and three tablespoons of lemon oil, and rub. with a dry cloth.

Fishnet Weave New Pattern From Paris

Afternoon dresses in gold and silver thread, sometimes mixed with a black silk thread, and worked in fishnet pattern, enliven many of the current Paris collections. These are cut on simple lines, with hems generally emphasized with different types of stitching. This kind of frock is important to a woman who pays frequent weekend visits or who does a lot of traveling. Sufliciently dressy for restaurant dining in town and ideal for tea or afternoons of bridge at the country club, fabrics like these do not wrinkle or muss easily.

Development of Chronic . Nephritis Often Impairs Normal Body Functions

Bright’s Disease Usually

Middle Age, Doctor Says;

Comes on Gradually After Ailment May Strike

At Patient’s Brain and Heart.

By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, American Medical Journal

The condition ordinarily called

Bright's disease is chronic nephritis,

The distinction between the various stages of inflammation of the kid neys is exceedingly difficult to make and depends largely on the ex-

perience of the physician.

Usually, those forms which become chronic come on so gradually after middle age that they are not noticed unless the person has a

regular physical examintion, includ- ¢ ing an examination of the urine. Of course, the most difficult condition to overcome is accumulation of the fluid in the tissues. If the fluid around the eyes is profuse, it actually may swell the eyes shut. Sometimes the legs may swell so greatly as to make locomotion difficult, if not impossible. Sometimes the fluid may collect in the brain, with serious effects on thought and action. There may be 50 much disturbance of the bowels that there will be loss of appetite and constipation or, in other instances, diarrhea. Actually, the patient may seem to be large because of the accumulation of fluid in his body, whereas really he is emaciated and undernourished. In these cases the blood pressure is usually higher than normal and sometimes extremely high.

Heart May Be Affected

In the early conditions, the heart and the blood vessels may not be affected, but later the effects may be so great that life is maintained with difficulty.

In such instances the physician | is particularly anxious to test the function of the kidney to determine whether it is doing its work satisfactorily and, in fact, to determine exactly how much work it is capable of doing. Obviously the diet and the fluids taken by the patient are dependent on these determinations. There are also tests of the urine and of the blood which still further enable the physician to estimate the capacity of the kidneys to do their work. Most important in the control of this form of nephritis is the selection of an adequate and properly balanced diet. It is, of course, necessary not only to consider the patient's disease, but his appetite as well, because there is no value in giving him food which he will not eat. If the anemia is severe, it is customary to give extra amounts of iron according to the preparation which the doctor may prescribe. Obviously the amount of exercise

and rest that the patient takes must be kept under control. It is customary to limit the amounts of tea and coffee, although these need not be entirely omitted from the diet if the patient has been taking them regularly. Usually these patients are told to avoid alcohol and highly spiced foods. The use of tobacco should be restricted. Constipation should be avoided by keeping the bowels regulated with suitable cathartics when necessary. In the most severe cases, if it seems that, the circulation is overloaded, physicians sometimes study the advisability of withdrawing fairly large amounts of blood from the blood vessels, thus taking some of the burden off the kidney. It should be obvious, however, that all of these conditions are serious and that the handling of any one of them is a matter for the application of the utmost in medical science that a competent doctor has at his command.

| Expert Urges Correct Heels

Heels often determing the difference between the quick light step that characterizes a youthful walk and the heavy determined tread that signifies on-coming years regardless of the wearer's age, according to a specialist in the art of rhythmic poise. For women who spend most -of their daytime hours standing on their feet or walking about, he recommends shoes that are comfortable but snug-fitting with medium built-up heels as broad as the width of the shoe. In 18th Century England, heels were classed with false hair, cosmetics, perfume, bolstered hips, and artificial teeth as a means of “imposing upon, seducing, and betraying into matrimony his majesty's loyal subjects.” Any woman who wore them was liable to punishment under the laws in force against witchcraft at hat
