New Rust Color Natl Polish Ties In
With Vogue For Vivid-Hued Gloves
By GLADYS GLAD
“America’s Most Famous Beauty”
RESEARCH workers have found
that, among certain tribes of Ethi
opians .women for generations
have practiced the art of enhanc
ing their charms by the use of red.
Not the fingernails alone are paint
ed red by those Ethiopian beauties,
but the entire hand. They under
stand, as most primitive people do,
the fascination that red exercises
over men, whether the men admit
it or not. And so they use this
vivid shade wherever possible
when seeking to enhance their at
tractiveness.
Women in civilzed countries, of
course, use more subtle methods.
They rely on well-groomed finger
nails to make their hands attrac
tive. There are any number of
different shades of red nail lac
quer now on the market, and rust,
it seems, is the latest and smartest
version of this vogue for gay fin
gertips.
The special virtue of the new
rust nail polish is its yellow lights
that give the skin a flattering,
creamy tone. According to cos
metic experts, the natural tones of
the skin take on a new sparkle
under the effect of powders, rouge
and polish that reflect certain care
fully worked-out, dusky-yellow
lights. This type of makeup and
polish is best for costumes in any
color that has yellow in it, such
as suntan, aqua, tomato-red, russet,
golden wedding, frozen custard,
sungold, greens and brown. For all
others, generally a powder should
bo clioseff that is on the flesh-pink
side, and lipstick and polish used
should be ros* or ruby. Remember
to watch the color of your costume

HABITUAL BOOSTING
IS EXPENSIVE
THE TERM “boosting” means
slight overbidding against strong
opponents, to force them to bid a
trick more than they can make. I
question whether such procedure
pays in the long ru nagainst able
players. The booster soon becomes
known to both partner and oppo
nents. The former never feels cer
tain whether or not opponents are
being pushed up deliberately, to
double them, or whether partner is
strong enough to want to play
what he bids. Opponents who have
bid their reasonable limit suddenly
drop out of the bidding, doubling
the booster’s side for a profit. Here
is a hand which was delat last
evening in a duplicate game. I
sat West and delat. I will not men
tion the defenders’ names, as both
my opponents are very able play
ers, who frequently are my part
ners in team matches. My partner
was J. N. S. Brewster, Jr.

Bidding differs between dupli
cate and rubber bridge. In the
fromer game a part game score
may mean a top. In the rubber
game a part game score seldom is
of much use in obtaining a game
that would not have been won as
well had the ryore been zero. I
would have passed had I been in
a rubber game. In the duplicate
game I made an opening bid of
1-spade, intending later to show
hearts, unless partner supported
my longer major suit. That open
ing call started things. Bidding
then North, 2-Cliibs; East,
3-Herats, trying to inform me that
my spades were like poison to
him; South, 5-Clubs. to prevent my
safe rebid of spades; West, 5-
Hearts, which South doubled. As
South was in the habit of tolling
opponents into higher calls than
they could fulfill, and with so many
losers in his own hand, North
never dreamed of bidding 6-Clubs,
so my partner played 5-Hearts
doubled.
It would have made no differ
ence what defense was offered.
The hand was just made for a
spread at 5-Hearts. All my partner
could lose was two tricks —on© dia
mond and one club. My hand could
ruff East’s second club and his
third diamond. Nobody else bid 5-
Hearts, which gave us top score
East and West. At one table West
bid 5-Spades and ' ent down three
tricks doubled. At the remaining
tables North played a contract of
6-Clubs, and fulfilled his contract,
losing only a single diamond trick.
No opening ]©ad could have de
feated tSge small slam. Provided
West did not make an opening
lead of a spade. South could have
made a small slam at diamonds.

with anything you wear. But be
careful which you choose.
Care as Well a* Color
Don’t forget, however, that your
nails need care as well as color.
Healthy nails depend on well-bal
anced diet, exercise and the same
treatment to prevent dryness that
you give your skin. Exercise can
be given in the form of massage.
Stroke each finger outward toward
the nailtip, or massage gently be
tween thumb and finger of the oth
er hand —always toward a nailtip.
This stimulates the circulation and
helps to keep the nail in good con
dition, reducing breakages and
peeling of the nail that result from
poor circulation.
ANSWERS TO QUERIES
Weight
Dolores: I think that a girl five
feet four inches tall and 25 years
of age should weigh about 128
pounds.
Legs
Patsy: It is indeed possible to
develop and shape thin, scrawny
thighs, legs and ankles. Full infor
mation on this is contained in my
article on “Care of the Feet and
Legs’’, with general advice on foot

Marcella: The blond hair rinse
to which you refer is composed of
the juice of one lemon, one table
spoon of vinegar, one tablespoon
of peroxide and a pint of clear
w’ater.
Hand Lotion
Joan: An excellent hand lotion
can be made of three parts of rose
water and one part of glycerine.
Equal parts of glycerine and rose
water also comprise an effective
hand lotion.

Wife Loves
A Former
Sweetheart
HAS FOUGHT AGAINST
FEELING BUT HAS SUF
FERED MUCH
By VIRGINIA LEE
A CORRESPONDENT sends me
this poignant story of her life and
requests me to print it “for those
who are about to make great de
cisions and for those whose lives
are close patterned to my own.
I may be some help to them.
“In early life, I allowed my rela
tives to lure me away from th©
man I loved I married another,
and he did likewise. For years we
fought against this love. We avoid
ed each other and tried hard to
forget. His wife ,a sweet little wo
man (as nice as my husband and
good), gave birth to his child.
“Finally he came to me and con
fessed his love for me was still the
same. He asked me whether I was
happy and if I still loved him. At
first I repulsed and avoided him.
but the flesh is weak and a hungry
heart aches. I allowed him to make
love to me, and I returned his love.
“It is a long time now since we
have seen each other. We never
met. I work hard and try to keep
busy, but if at parties I laugh as
long and as loud as the others, and
the laugh ends in a sob, who is
there to understand or comfort
me?
Would Turn Back Time
“If I could turn time back in its
flight! I would spend my childhood
learning to be sweet and gentle for
him. my girlhood in a search for
kind and understanding friends,
and then, when he would come I
would not hesitate to go with him
to the altar so that God might
bless our union. Then I would be
happy raising his children and be
in ga good wife to the man I love.
Our love would be something to b©
proud of gnd cherish. As it is, we
must hid and fight it. The world, if
it learns of us, will point to us in
scorn and say, “The other man,’
’the other woman.’ Oh, how I have
suffered! You others at th© thres
hold of love, take heed. True love
never dies. Do not make a mistake
as I did. Be brave. Love is best
when accepted at the proper time.
“THE OTHER WOMAN.”
The moral of your story is, un
doubtedly, to be brave enough to
face the battery of your relatives
and insist upon marrying the man
you lov© in spite of opposition. I
am sorry you had not the courage
to do this, but I cannot help won
dering if you would have been as
• ideally happy as you think with
this man you have loved all these
years. Mind. I do not say you
would not, only I am wandering.
You should have done it, of course,
and eve nif you had found later
that he was not the ideal mate,
you would at least have had some
time of bliss.
Did you ever think of the plight
of his wife and your husband, how
ever —such nice people you say
they are? Afater all you two have
your great love to console you, but
they have nothing—just mates who
do not love them —are always wish
ing they were with someone else.
