Chance for Novice to Place Manuscripts' Who Forsakes Writing Career Glad to Return persons are confronted with perfor advice, but unwilling to or relatives, The Eagle invites its Helen Worth, who will give each personal attention. Write under an assumed one AND ON ONE THE PAPER ONLY Advice by Helen Worth Dear Helen Worth--My 15 years. She is 40 years of has seemed content to make myself. I have been a good wealthy, we are in comfortable circumstances financially. have tried throughout our married life, to give my wife as much as is possible so that her life would not become that of merely a housewife.

Now we have come to the parting of the ways and her reason is that shes wants independence in order to make a career for herself in the writing field. She has never written a story or article in her life that has been accepted and published, yet so firmly convinced is she of her talent that she insists upon breaking up our home to pursue a career. J. M. My dear my childhood, I was always intrigued by articles dealing with the ignis fatuous.

This ghostly gleam would lead the weary traveller astray. Lured by its false indications, he would leave the safe highway and travel forward to his doom. Perhaps there is recorded somewhere the history of a successful writer, who never felt the urge to put words on paper until middle life arrived. But I doubt it. Usually the taste or talent is such a driving force, that the owner needs must write from early childhood.

Your wife is equally misled. With the security which love, children and creature comforts bestow, she is all set to desert the safe highway of life upon which she has travelled all these years, for the false promise of a visional career. If your wife has never yet sold anything, she has chosen a sorry time to market her wares, since trained writers are finding it difficult to place manuscripts. Let her have a free rein for the time being. Urge her to seek a position on a newspaper or magazine.

Before many days have passed, I feel very certain that she will be glad to return to the safe haven of that home which she now spurns, in a grand gesture of independence. HELEN WORTH. Appeals for Helpers In Mission Sunday School Homefor Will Be Believing that many sonal problems, anxious seek it from friends readers to write to communication close your own name or SIDE OF Advice Dear Helen Worth -Even when I haven't time for the rest of The Eagle I almost always read this page. Now I wonder if I am depriving myself and others of a great blessing by my failure to take hold of the helping hand which I might possibly reach through you. Our problem is this: In our mission Sunday School is a class of 10 to 12-year-old, lovable little girls who need a leader.

They are dropping away because so often they have come without having a teacher. There is also great need for an organist or pianist. We usually have to sing our hymns without any music at all. Is there not some reader who loves children and loves the cause of Christ, who would welcome an opportunity to serve them? If there is some unknown friend who would come to help us in this way--or two friends who would come together-we would be grateful beyond my words to express. And I must add that the joy received from the service would amply compensate the giver for all the effort or inconvenience.

Our service is at 9:45 Sunday morning, and we are in the East New York section. Thank Helen Worth wife and I have been married for age, and up to the present time a home for our two kiddies and provider and while we are not you very much for printing this little appeal. M. B. Most sincerely do I hope that some one will heed your appeal.

Letters forwarded. HELEN WORTH. Another Solution for "Unhappy's" Problem Dear Helen Worth--In replying to "Unhappy" in reference to her darling little girl who is inclined to wander away I would like to suggest a possible plan to keep her amused and safe. Also there are many degenerates around, to say nothing of other dangers. If she will have her husband buy some strong wire fencing about 6 feet high and four posts, she can have a wire cage made very easily, he can make it himself, leaving a corner open so that the child can pass through but securing it when she is in.

With a sand box, and molds which cost very little, and at little water she can amuse herself for hours. She should have it where she can see the little darling, and I am sure it would settle her troubles, and now that the pleasant weather is at hand she can sit out in the grounds herself with the other baby. We had one for our little boy and it was wonderful and he thoroughly enjoyed it. Wishing much luck and happiness with her darling children her and the same to yourself. ANOTHER GRANDMA.

My dear "Another you. Among the cherished snapshots of the days when our own children were very young there are several showing small persons safe within the play-yard which the Head-of-the-House built for them. Some show happy faces--and some are reminiscent of rebellious little people. However, rebellion or not, they offer peace of mind to the busy mother, and a safe refuge for active youngsters. Thank you for your nice letterI'll wager you are a good grandma! HELEN WORTH.

"Cornelia" Appreciates Layette Information Dear Helen Worth -I cannot possibly express my gratitude to you and all the friendly readers who anties and luxuries for a layette. Such swered my questions about necessi- warm encouraging letters from happy women who have been through such a time as I am having now brougnt tears to my eyes. The young mother who hoped my baby would be half as nice as hers, and another mother who envied the joy of expecting one's first-born are just samples. I am so happy myself, it all seems wonderful to me. I have already started my layette and have made two darling little wrappers for the most perfect baby in the world! CORNELIA.

My dear most perfect baby in the world." Surely the heart of every mother who reads your appreciative letter must beat a bit faster as she thinks of the happy period before her own first-born was laid in her arms. Layettes may vary in price and quantity; rules and regulations suggested for pre-natal care may diverge greatly, but every mother in the land has experienced the same happy hours of anticipation. Good luck, "Cornelia," to you and yours. HELEN WORTH. Cotoneasters Make Hedge Thick, Lovely, Colorful By JANE LESLIE KIFT Cotoneasters are always rative, but in the Fall and early Winter we are particularly grateful for their scarlet fruit and evergreen foliage.

In June the plants are covered with a mass of small, deep pink flowers, which we are apt to overlook, not because they are not attractive, but because in the first month of Summer we have such a wealth of color all over the garden. In the Fall, when the crimson tints and tones begin to fade and the landscape takes on a more somber mien, we are attracted by the bright, scarlet, egg-shaped fruit, each about one-third of an inch long. These wee berries hang on the bare branches all Winter, and not only add a bit of color to the garden, but provide food for our feathered friends as well. All cotoneasters are not reliably hardy. So, if you are one of the people who adds to your garden family while motoring about the country, be sure to explain to the nurseryman with whom you place your order the kind of Winter you are likely to The spreading cotoneaster is hardy.

This variety is very showy, of upright habit, sometimes attaining a height of five or six feet, with wide, spreading branches. It is well worthy of a place of prominence in any foundation planting scheme or even in single group arrangement, There are many varieties of cotoneasters, but in most cases the dwarf kinds are always evergreen, or at least nearly so. These low -growing Matching Bag and Hat Smart Spring Combination Handbags, like belts, go in for tricky and decorative fastenings, and hats and bags are often materially alike. Something different in color combinations was seen recently in Paris. Over a pale blue Vionnet wool dress with twisted belt went a red Vionnet cloth coat with deep cuffs and crossed collar of Astrakhan.

The Reboux hat had crocheted bands in two shades of red at front, draping back on brown velvet foundation, The costume was completed by a short string of pearls, white gloves, brown serpent shoes, and brown suede bag. (Copyright, 1932. Fairchild.) Back Yard Gardening, No Matter if Amateurish, Great Fun for Couple By ELIZABETH LEAR Almost any Spring Saturday now, after 2 o'clock, you may come across this scene. It is a backyard scene, and thing from a half-cement of the city to a huge in the country. In any case the effect is about the same.

There are two figures bending. One is a man, the other is a woman. They are raking or spading, SOWing seeds or setting out tender little plants. Perhaps they are edging flowerbeds, or preparing the place where, after while, it will look as if a natural spring trickling down over some rocker into a tiny pool face and a in its depths. with a lily crowing, upon its surWhatever they are doing, they will be having a perfectly glorious time.

The man's face will have spots of mud here and there, and he will have on those clothes that he cherishen for years, saving them from tramps, rescuing them from rum- mage sales, salvaging them out of the ragbag over and over again. "I can use them for fishing-or "I can use them for fishing-or he always claims, remembering that he goes fishing about once a year. But when gardening days come, he gets into these awful clothes with joy and glee. Baggy trousers, an aged and infirm sweater, a maimed and bent and discolored felt hat and a pair of sturdy graying brown gloves. For shoes he wears last year's casual ones, which after the third gardening day become positively indifferent.

He may not know much about gardening, he may not do anything each week that does not have to be done over again during the following week by the neighborhood man who comes in to "do" the yard he has a glorious time. His wife's costume is better looking, though no less quaint. She usually puts a smock or an apron over the dress she happens to be wearing, adds some goloshes to her feet if it is very early in Spring, puts on a wide-brimmed hat that is becoming as well as rakish, and rummages through a drawer for those gloves she used all Winter for cleaning-oh, yes; here they are, one thumb is out and there's a slit in one other finger, but that won't matter. She also may not know very much about gardening or do very much, but she also has a glorious time. They both get stiff backs, both realize they are a year older than they were last year, both wonder next day why their wrists should hurt so, and their hands be so sore.

Incidentally the word mesh has crept into fashion copy and is sure to remain there throughout this season, since the smart world seems particularly intrigued with knitted and crochet novelties, even to hat crowns.

There must be nothing machine-: about these meshes, either. Even sweaters must have that hand-made look, and prim little wool edges are being applied to sports clothes of character. "Shirt-waist dress" has a decidedly utilitarian sound. It is, however, ornamental as well, One finds such frocks in zephyr- -weight wools, in shirting silks, and in cotton, and one finds tallored frocks eligible to such a classification made of boucle or other knitted effects. Though it is far from a tailored season, there are enough exponents of good tailoring to make the tailored frock an important development.

Just as a tailored suit develops a dressmaker complex, so dresses have developed all manner of tailored touches. Tennis dresses, and frocks of this genre, are either sans sleeves or with greatly abbreviated ones. Necklines are throat high or, when lower, are convertible by means of a scarf or something of that sort. A number of such frocks have a rounded line ending at the base of the throat and may be finished with A crochet or knitted edge. Others have a square line, or one that started out to be square but got drawn into a bow at one corner.

The trim lines of the sports frock, no matter what its fabric, are usually accented by a belt worn more or less at the normal line. Pleats are supplying the necessary fulness in many skirts, which still remain short. The flared skirt, gored or taken circular, and has many sponsors but, by large, women seem to be particularly pleased with group pleats. Hotel St. George.

When the first shoots begin to come up, rewarding their efforts, they are as thrilled as the parents of a first-born. It's a picturesque scene, this Saturday afternoon glimpse of Mr. and Mrs.

in gardening costume and posture. If you live in an apartment, or it your pocket handkerchief is entirely cement, you envy them. They are having good time together, Mr. is justifying the keeping of his dreadful old clothes, Mrs. Is slenderizing her waistline, they have an excuse to be outdoors ail afternoon, and the result of their labors will be more than worth any pains or aches or stiffnesses or consciousness of age they may be acquiring as they stoop and bend and spade and rake and hoe.

Husband and You By LORENE BOWMAN Everybody knows we are more healthy and pretty than the old folks were. But if you are ever tempted to complain about what you have to do, just take a postview of your great-grandmother. What if you had to sew up shirts, and knit socks, and can fruit, and make soap? How would you ever find time to have your nails polished? And your eyebrows plucked? And your face lifted? And your wrinkles rubbed? And your hair waved? Why in those bad old days no child ever went to sleep without being rocked in a cradle. Don't ever wish for the romantic past unless you also are longing for more work to do. And those were the days -please don't forget thiswhen man was the big boss, Read over this funny little rhyme by Frances Brown: "Oh, those blessed times of old, with their chivalry and state.

I love to read their chronicles which such brave deeds relate; I love to sing their ancient rhymes, to hear their legends toldBut, Heaven be thanked, I live not in those blessed times of old." Proverb: Time makes ancient good Mrs. F. C. Yates, formerly of Omaha, recently set a marathon golf record for Argentina. She played 111 holes in a day over the links of the Club Progreso, third longest course in the country.

SO long. Wear your hair parted on one side and bring it down in waves over forehead and over the tops of your ears. Wear your hair long enough to make a cluster of curls or a roll, rather low at the back of the head. This arrange ment will minimize the length of your neck and also the size of your nose. 1 iarcel Will Not Stay In Dear Miss Leeds -My hair is very fine and will hold a marcel wave only two days, How can I make it stay in longer PEGGIE.

Sometimes inability to hold wave is due to lack of elasticity in the hair. Healthy hair is elastic; it will stretch about one-fifth of its length without breaking. If your hair is too dry or if you have been overbleaching it or having it marceled too often, this might account for the problem you complain of. Oil treatment and scalp care will help restore normal condition. You will probably find that fingerwaving would be more succesful than marceling with your fine type of hair.

A curling fluid may to be used to hold the waves in place, and they should last at least a week. bushes are the varieties that are so popular for rock garden use. While as a class cotoneasters grow well in almost any soll, they usually abhor deep shade and refuse to grow in ground that is not well drained. During the first season every variety should be kept well watered. They must never be permitted to go into the Winter with dry roots.

Of late people are finding out how desirable the cotoneasters are for hedge use. They make a most beautiful thick hedge. Since the introduction of some of the newer Chinese varieties there is a renewed interest in this family which is very gratifying. If you do not know the cotoneaster, ask your nearest nurseryman to show it to you. 3 Women to Manage City of Duvall, Wash.

I fear that it is just the result of old age, as I am over 40. INQUIRER. The condition has no doubt been developing for years, so you must not expect to remedy it in a short time.

However, it is possible to improve it greatly. Before your skin will become smooth, or relatively so, you must improve its tone. Spend five minutes twice a day on neck exercises. At bedtime cleanse your neck with cleansing cream or oil. Wash it gently with warm water and soap.

Rinse off all the soap. Now apply a' massage cream and stroke the neck downward all around ten times. Leave the cream on for 20. minutes while you take your bath. Then steam your neck by wrapping around it a towel wrung out in hot water.

Replace this with another towel wrung out in cold water. Repeat hot and cold application six times, three hot and three cold. "Her Kisses Took Paris by Storm" says Jane Corby In her story of Adrienne Lecenvreur in morrow's Eagle Magazine for Ween.
