How to Care for the Nails
By Alicia Hart
Smooth, well-shaped nails are the first requisites of beautiful hands.
In the first place, don't bite them. If biting them is a habit, try and occasional break it. Getting an professional....manicuro will help. Ask the operator to flo them smooth, trim off the rough edges of cuticle and put on a polish. Your pride in the polish and the absence' of rough edges will go far toward keeping you from chowing on them. Nails that break and crack ensi- ly should be treated to a warm olive oil bath. Massage a bit of the oll into the cuticle and leave It on all Wear oil cotton night if you can. gloves while you sleep.
}
If your nails continue to crack and break, it may be that there is something lacking in your diet or something wrong with your di- gestive tract. Tho best thing to do, of course, is to see a reliablo physician.
L
Keep the cuticle pushed back. This can be done with the very. towel on which you dry your hands. Always push it back while your hands are wet and the cuticle j is soft.
Don't dig under your nails with a too-sharp nail file. In most in- stances, an orange stick, wrapped; in cotton, is batter for cleaning purposes.

TWO-COLOUR CRAZE IN EVENING GOWNS
Many women are shy of wearing a dark or indeterminato, colour, in the evening. "It needs too heavy a make-up," is their excuse. But this season dressmakers are trying to solve the problem by introducing a soft and délicato shade near the face. For instance, ona grey dress-and there was a tremendous amount of groy in the mid-season collections-colour in the shape of a Bort of diagonal turn-over 'collar with matching shoulder straps and belt is added. With a black frock, satin or crepo in a delicato shade of orchid will be used for the shoulder straps, which become part of the bodice drapery in front. Nearly all the new frocks are of the two- colour order. Molyneux uses the narrowest of brown volvot shoulder straps, with matching belt, gloves and shoes, to accentuate the clarity of a white gown, and adda a tiny cape of coq feathers shading from white to brown,

RUBBER CONTROL
REPORTS SAY AGREEMENT REACHED
The Hague, Jan. 28. The strictest secrecy is being maintained by all the partics con- cerned in the international nego- tiations for rubber restriction, but well-informed quarters bellove that an agreement has been reach- ed on the basis of quotas and April 1 is suggested as the date for the coming into operation of
the scheme.
There is a gonera! impression that the main obstacles to an in- ternational restriction agreement have been removed, but the com- mittee working out details, is now faced with the technical difficul- ties of solving the problem of na- tive rubber production in the Dutch East Indies.-Reuter.
