I lyMW rl 2 Section 2 CHICAGO TRIBUNE, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1963 Niece Sells Treasured (to Uncle) Gift Item DEAR LOUISE: My favorite niece doesn't live too far from us. When she married two years ago, my wife and I wanted to give her something lovely and lasting. So, we got her a handsome small bird figure done by an American sculptor. It's the type of thing that could some day be a collector's item. And it COST $85! Well, the other day my wife was driving past my niece's and saw a sign, "Garage Sale." She thought she'd go in and say hello.

Inside the garage were my niece and some of her into her home and that all the young women do it these day. My wife is furious and so am I. Please comment-Ruffled Feather Southern Suburb Dear R. I cringe at telling personal gifts for profit but the garage sale, or variations thereof, are at much a part of the American scene today at income tax and heart disease. And don't we all err when we give another something that reflects our taste, not theirs? Isn't it possible that to your niece, your bird was a collector's item for dust? And.

if a giver gives a gift with strings attached, is it a gift or a burden? Do you know what Actress Helen Hayes recently did? She auctioned off personal treasures, many of them handsome gifts. Her explanation: She had "liberated" them to bring joy to others. Try to see your niece's point of view. Family serenity's worth more than a bird. friends selling off wedding and Christmas gifts they didn't want And, yes, there was our bluebird figurine going, going, gone for $5.

My niece called later that day and apologized profusely to my wife. She said it just wasn't the type of thing that fitted Readers Offer Advice Round Bne Shoulder Cut vtemSmt I KmBSTOB I I i Lzjuk CHUCK BEEF NECK LEAN SHORT BEEF A.

I am a boy, 13, with a friend, also 13.

This boy la getting so independable that I getting mad at mm. his BY MARY FEELEY family have what you call this Togetherness and theyre ruin- Caosaltaat to ing his life with it. Our family is close, too, but my Mom and THE WOMAN who can keep her food allowance under control in this day and age assumes the same status as the magician who pulls the rabbit out of the hat every time. "How does she do it?" they chorus, whenever a reader declares in this column that she feeds her "family of six on $65 to $76 a month." Or "seven people on $21 a week." Well, maybe you might pick up an idea or two from some of these competent souls who Dad teach me good manners and when I have to go soma place with them, I have to call my friends and tell them I can't meet them. My friend doesn't do this to us guys.

If his Mom has something planned, he goes with her and we're left waiting at the football field with no excuse. If you call him and he isn't home, someone in the family says he'll call back. But he never does. He doesn't have any sense of responsibility. Now, when the guys get together, my friend is left out I like him and want to be friends with him, but I have to do all the chasing and I am getting fed up and so are the other guys.

What can we do to help him? Fed Up Lake Forest Dear Fed Up: You and the "other guys" think your friend's got a problem. But doesn't he think so? Maybe if he's "left out" enough, he'll get fed up, too. But don't count on it. You'll meet other fellows girls, too who are charming and fun to be with and totally irresponsible. Friendship is liking someone enough that you try to understand and accept their faults.

We ask this in others when we want them to be OUR friends. The way your friend acts doesn't mean he doesn't like you. It's just the way he is. I'm afraid you'll have to learn to accept him as he is or forget him because one thing we should never do to friends is try to change them into what WE think they should be! on the care and feeding of husbands and children. Don't Let Husband Shop "Never let your husband or anybody else do the food shopping for you!

One can learn to drink it and it really saves money." Warren, Ore.

Mascaras, you may have noticed, have much more staying power today. This is a fine attribute from the make-up standpoint, but lashes should have rest and thoro bed time cleansing.

The "Hillrose Facial Cleanser" is the newest member of the family that has been the baby of the Walgreen laboratories for a long time. There's a great hand lotion, a soothing hand cream, and now the new cleanser measures up in performance to its predecessors. It's at all Walgreen stores. Nun Starting Band Seeks Instruments rif roe ere in need, eerheet I can fcele WHAT EVERY dry-skinned girl should know: Rough weather demands gentle cleansers. A creamy liquid called "Hill-rose Facial Cleanser" couldn't make its bow at a more appropriate time, because it's finally getting really cold, and dry skins are reacting in their usual vexing way getting dryer and more uncomfortable by the minute.

This is one of those lovely bottled liquids you can keep in the desk drawer and use for quick cleansings during the day. It's fast, its efficient in reaching down deep for all that mussed make-up and the day's grime, and it's extremely kind to thirsty skin that needs constant winter pampering. The skin has an entirely different feel than it would have if you used anything even the least bit harsh. It's cleansed and subtly comforted. This last is so important to the winter sufferer.

Important to every one is the fact that this is such a fine cleanser. For instance, it gets off every last vestige of lipstick. That is more than can be said of a lot of cleansers. bake, an old lady told me to remember that 'a woman could throw more out of the back door with a teaspoon than a man could bring in the front door with a I'm 65 years old now and could live well on what I see wasted."
