7a Standard-Speaker Lil Hints from Heloise THURSDAY, JULY 23, 1998 Page 6 Cindy Fourre bride of Robert Eigenbrod Cindy Fourre, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Mulligan, 701 W. 24th Hazleton, and Robert Eigenbrod, son of Mr. and Mrs.

Robert Eigenbrod, R.R. 2, Drums, were united in marriage on June 26 in Christ Lutheran Church. The Rev. Stanley Trout performed the double ring ceremony. Given in marriage by her father, the bride had her sister, Dawn Franklin, as matron of honor.

Bridesmaids were Lisa Mulligan, Hazleton, sister of the bride, and Michele Franklin, Hazleton, niece of the bride. Brittany Eigenbrod, daughter of the couple, was flower girl. Brian Eigenbrod, Hazleton, performed the duties of best man for his brother, and groomsmen were Richard Veith, Drums, and Robert Franklin, Hazleton, nephew of the bride. Steven Fourre, son of the couple, was ringbearer. Following a reception at The Towers, Fern Glen, the couple left for a honeymoon in the Poconos.

They now reside at 701 W. 24th Hazleton. A 1987 graduate of Hazleton High School, the bride is employed at Mountain City Convalescent and Rehabilitation Center. The groom, also a 1987 graduate of Hazleton High School, is employed at Gallagher Auto Part. The bride was honored at a shower given by her bridesmaids, and the rehearsal dinner was hosted by the groom's parents at their home.

Cindy and Robert Eigenbrod Include skin protection with summer fun Summer season is the time to remember skin protection. Use a sunscreen, wear a hat and take other precautions. Melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer is the second most frequent cancer (after cervical cancer) among women aged 25-29, and the third most frequent among women aged 30-34. Fair-haired, light skinned people are most at risk. A history of painful or blistering sunburns in your youth, the presence of many flat or raised moles on your skin, large brown miles at birth or a family history of the disease also make you susceptible.

In its early stages, melanoma is easy to detect and treat. Once advanced, however, it spreads rapidly. Look for large pigmented moles that are asymmetric and have notched, ragged or blurred borders. In women, those most commonly appear on the legs, back, arms and face. Scaliness, oozing, bleeding, color variations and the spread of pigment beyond the borders are other suspicious signs.

Other types of skin cancer are more common than melanoma but less deadly because they spread less rapidly: basal cell carcinoma (pearly grey nodules on the face, neck and back of the hands) and squamous cell carcinoma (scaly, red lesions with crusty or hardened surfaces that sometimes bleed). A fourth condition, actinic or solar keratosis (rough, scaly patches on sun-exposed skin that may appear as one ages) is a premalignancy that bears watching. To enjoy the weather safely, remember: Use a sun screen with sun protection factor of 15 or higher on all exposed areas, even on cloudy days. (Don't use on children younger than six months unless directed by a physician.) Reapply as needed. Minimize sun exposure between 10 a.m.

and 3 p.m. During periods of prolonged exposure, cover up with clothing and a wide-brimmed hat. Watch out for reflective surfaces (sand, concrete and water). With little effort, you can protect your skin. "Hydration hint Dear Heloise: Here is a hint for working women who want to make sure they drink a healthy amount of water during the day.

Each night I fill a 1 -quart plastic bottle with good drinking water and put it in the freezer with the top open. In the morning I fasten the top and take the bottle to work, putting it on a coaster on my desk. As the water thaws during the day, I pour it into a mug and drink it. It stays cold all day. Christina Parker, Rochester, N.Y.

This is a money-saving, healthy hint for ANYONE who should drink water throughout the day. You'll cut back on money spent on soft drinks. Heloise Tubberware Dear Heloise: In the town I live in we are required to recycle our garbage. To save room in my recycling bin, I keep all of my old butter containers to reuse. This saves a lot of money.

When I go to get either the leftovers or the butter out of the refrigerator, I always end up looking through a few containers until I find the right one. Now what I do instead is write on a piece of masking tape what is in the con-r tainer and the date it was put in there and put it on the side of the container. This saves time and saves foods from being in there longer than they should. Kacy Witten, Marion, Iowa Organized drawer Dear Heloise: To create some order in my cosmetics drawer, I have purchased several shotgun shell boxes (plastic) from a spor-' ting-goods store. Most of my lipsticks, mascaras and brushes fit into the compart- ments.

The tops of the boxes, which are not compartmentalized, r. I use for eye shadows, rouges, etc. The colors of these boxes are not the prettiest, but since mine are in a drawer, it doesn't matter. Barbara Houser, Richardson, 4 Texas No skid Dear Heloise: Just a small square of nonskid shelf liner laid in the seat of any highchair (at home or in a restaurant) will keep those young ones from sliding out. It's rubbery, so it folds easy and fits in the diaper bag to use over and over.

Judy Hitt, Russellville, Ala. Misty L. Kirpa weds Michael D. Bartenope Misty Lynn Kirpa and Michael David Bartenope were married May 9 in a double ring ceremony performed by the Rev. Maurice Raymond in Most Precious Blood Church, Hazleton.

The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Kirpa, Sugarloaf, and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Gennaro Bartenope, Hazleton.

Given in marriage by her father, the bride chose Jerilyn Mullen as matron of honor, and Jennifer Lazarsy as maid of honor. Gina Cohen, cousin of the groom, was junior bridesmaid. Peter Bartenope served as best man for his brother, and Charles Houser, White Haven, was the groomsman. Dale Stewart served as usher. Following a reception at the Holiday Inn, the couple honeymooned at Casear's Resort, Cove Haven, Poconos.

A graduate of Hazleton High School and Bloomsburg University, the bride is an academic instructor at the Keystone Job Corps. The groom, also a graduate of Hazleton High School, is employed by Fairway Motors, Hazleton. The bride was honored at a shower given by her co-workers at the Ground Round. The rehearsal dinner was hosted by the groom's family at the Holiday Inn. Misty and David Bartenope Unwanted advances must be stopped DEAR MISS MANNERS: On Friday nights, a group of my friends gathers informally at the local coffee house, and I usually attend unless I have other plans.

I was sitting on one of the small comfortable couches there when a gentleman in my circle sat next to me, chatted a bit and proceeded to become rather cuddly, putting his head in my lap, etc. I know him quite well and generally consider him to be a friend. A year ago, this would not have seemed strange. Now I am not so naive and this situation bothers me. I am not interested.

He could not have known it, but I am going with someone else. Also, he is a great deal older: He is 25, 1 am 15. I would not dream of shoving him away and shouting "How could you be so lecherous, you despicable cad!" as we are otherwise on good terms and we were, after all, in public. I think that would be much ruder than being too forward. However, I am concerned that this will happen again.

How shall I react, given that I don't mind sitting next to him? In other words, I would like to remain on the couch I just don't want to cuddle. GENTLE READER: Like you, Miss Manners is restraining herself from shouting indignantly. But in her case, it would be to shout, "Young lady! Would you please go home this very minute and learn to behave yourself before you get into GENTLE READER: You may already be handling the evening too well. That's why no one wants to go home. Although various techniques exist for speeding the parting guest (Mrs.

Stuyvesant Fish is said to have responded to a ball guest's request for "one more two-step" with the suggestion that he take one step upstairs to get his coat and a second step outdoors to find his carriage), you are wise to want to set limits in advance. If you were giving a reception of some sort, you could properly invite people for two hours (expecting them to understand that "4 to 6" means "4:30 to 7" and "6:30 to 8:30" means "7 to if Please see STOPPED, page 7 it, Miss Manners is not impressed with your progress. It is high time you learned to feel the indignation implied by those words you would not dream of uttering. Until you manage to do so, Miss Manners would settle for your dislodging the unwelcome guest on your lap by jumping suddenly to your feet on your way out the door to go home. DEAR MISS MANNERS: I enjoy hosting dinner parties but tend not to because the evenings usually outlast me.

May I extend invitations which let my guests know when to arrive and when to plan on going home? I recognize that this makes it incumbent on me to manage the evening well. Miss Manners JudiTri MartIn serious trouble?" She realizes that you claim to have made progress since, at the age of 14, you thought it all right to allow a grown-up to take liberties with you in public because he was a friend and you had no conflicting romantic interest. But as you seem to be in the identical situation, even though you are less pleased by I i Coupon envelope Dear Heloise: I have a tip that has helped me remember to use my coupons at the grocery store. I make my list on an envelope and put the coupons I intend to use inside, rather than hunt for them everywhere in my purse. This has helped me and hope it will help someone else.

(Postage is could co-exist in a working environment with "Bill's" wife and I can think of few things less conducive to a professional relationship than for one colleague to tell another that she's slept with her cheating husband. Her motives could be misunderstood, and the woman might think it was an attempt to break up the marriage. As to your own womanizing husband, don't beat yourself up about what you "should" have done 12 years ago. Be grateful that you finally came to your senses and did what you had to do. Some people NEVER learn.

DEAR ABBY: I have a request for "Snapping Away in Greer, S.C.," who always serves as the photo historian for get-togethers. Please stop taking my picture when I specifically ask you not to. You often ignore my request and snap away anyway. I am not being shy; I genuinely don't want my picture taken. It is beyond my comprehension how these individuals can be so rude and DEAR ABBY: I must disagree with your response to 'Trying to Forget," the woman who had slept with the husband of a co-worker at her new job.

You told her to forget it and treat "Bill" as though she had never seen him. My husband of nine years had an affair, and we are now divorcing. As it turns out, he was sleeping with an ex-girlfriend while we were engaged and living together 10 years. He also had a couple of other affairs I recently found out about, and I hear he's sleeping around on the woman he's been having the affair with for two years. The sad thing is that employees of his, friends and acquaintances say he always was a womanizer.

I wish someone had clued me in long ago that my husband couldn't be trusted. We have a 5-year-old daughter who is devastated her daddy left, and I had to be tested for STDs and HIV. Because my husband didn't use protection, I may have been exposed to a multitude of diseases. I'm not sure how it should be done, but this wife needs to know what her husband has been up to, since "Trying to Forget" probably wasn't his only affair. By the way, I wish I'd listened to you 12 years ago, when I wrote you that my boyfriend liked to go out without me.

You told me to leave him. Unfortunately, that's the guy I married and am now divorcing. I guess I had to find out the hard way once a playboy, always a playboy. NO LONGER CLUELESS, OLYM-PIA WASH.
