; DEAR DR. THOSTE-
SON: When you wrote
about what to do for a per-
son having epileptic sei-
zures, I was disturbed be-
cause you didn’t explain
that there is a capsule to
take every day that will
prevent anyone from hav-
ing a seizure. Of course, it
must be taken on a doc-
tor's advice. — K.F.Y.

DEAR ABBY: My hus-
band died nine years ago
leaving me with two small
children. Friends rushed
in, offered their sympathy
and we were promptly for-
gotten. Months, even years
go by without an invitation
to have dinner with a
“complete" family.
I have often invited mar-
ried couples and their fam-
ilies to my home for din-
ner, but they politely de-
cline for they are not inter-
ested in coming to a lady’s
home where there are only
the lady and her children.
I have my women friends,
and the children have their
school friends, but aside
from this, we don’t even
exist.
I once considered joining
an organization for par-
ents alone, but when the
first invitation closed with,
“bring your own bottle," I
decided it wasn’t for me.
A well-known young
men’s service organization
announced a Sunday fa-
ther-son swim hour. When
I called and explained that
my son's father was dead
DEAR HELOISE: I
have a large picture win-
dow in my small house
and no room for a Christ-
mas tree.
Two and a half yards of
red nylon net came to my
rescue.
I screwed eight little cup
hooks into the underside of
the top window frame,
stretched and fastened the
net onto the cup hooks
making a curtain.
Then I took Christmas

FACTS
Christmas season always brings a round of parties
and it’s a very special time for many women's organi-
zations. The members work hard all year and look for-
ward to this festive time when they can just relax and
“socialize" with each other.
When Tau Beta Review Club, upper left photo, met
at O'Mealey’s Cafeteria, members heard a book re-
view by Mrs. Mary Gray Thompson. Mrs. Henry
Banks, left, gave the devotional. Among those at the
luncheon were Mrs. Charles Edwards, center, a new
member, and Mrs. Scott Tuxhorn, a guest.
Santa Claus favors, upper right, bring smiles to
the faces of members of the Keramic Art Club. The
group’s Christmas party was held in the home of Mrs.
Leonard Reeve, left, who shares the clever little fa-
vors with Mrs. Revere Young, center, and Mrs. R. E.
MacDowell.
Mrs. L. E. Jones, below left, and Mrs. Loren
Hutchins give a closer look at a Christmas boot of felt.
The sequin-trimmed, flower-filled little boot served as
a center piece for the Christmas luncheon of the XYZ
Club. Mrs. Jones was hostess for the party.

e m s,
check out mine! I am a
college student and have
recently been fitted for
contact lenses. I love them
because I've worn glasses
since the fifth grade. My
problem is my boyfriend.
Believe it or not, he likes
me better in glasses.
He wants me to throw
away my contacts, but I
am not about to, after hav-
ing Invested $200 In them.
I much prefer contacts
over glasses and I think I
should be the one to de-
cide, don’t you?
My boy friend says he
has to look at me. He’s
even offered to reimburse
me the $200 if I get rid
the contacts.
So far we've compro-
mised. I wear my glasses
when I’m with him, and
my contacts when I’m not
with him, but this is a stu-
help me? GLASSY-EYED
DEAR GLASSY: You’re
right. You are the one who
should decide. If whether
you wbar glasses or con-
tacts is going to make a
difference in your relation-
ship, it’s best to find out
now and act accordingly.

Uncle Milton: If you lend a
friend 10 dollars and never
see him again, it’s a good
investment.

times I’ve mentioned anti-
convulsant drugs to pre-
vent or ease attacks.
It isn’t quite as simple
as you state it. It isn’t "a
capsule." It can be any
number of capsules, with
Varied contents to suit
each individual patient.
Dilantin and phenobarbital
are very commonly used,
but there are other drugs,
the choice depending on
the type of epilepsy und the
patient's response.
It is true that many pa-
tients, with such daily
medication, go for years
without attacks, but it is
overstating the case to say
that medication will “pre-
yent anyone from having a
seizure.”
It is probably safe to say
that anyone can be helped,
but in some severe cases
even drugs cannot prevent
411 seizures.
• DEAR DR. THOSTE-
SON: I need help bad. I
Have tried just about every
kind of deodorant but they
don’t work. I perspire like
mad. As long as my under-
arms don't touch clothing,
the odor Is okay, but as
soon as I put something
on, oh, boy. Do you have
any idea what I could use?
— R.L.P.
P.S.: I am a very nerv-
ous person.
I COULD have guessed
at your P.S. Nervous peo-
ple are much more likely
to perspire profusel
as you grow older,
likely learn to take life
more calmly.
For right now, remem-
ber this: perspiration
doesn’t smell much. Some
of it doesn’t smell at all.
It’s the bacterial activity
on the skin — the bacteria
multiply most rapidly
when warm and moist —
that makes nearly all the
odor.
So try this: use whatev-
er antiperspirant you have
found that doesn't irritate
the skin.
EYERY COUPLE of
days, use an anti-bacterial
soap to wash under the
arms. (Daily washing
might cause irritation.)
That way you can reduce
the amount of bacteria.
If you don't already
shave under the arms, do
so.
Finally, a light dusting
of even such a simple
thing as baking soda can
absorb some of the mois-
ture and Inhibit bacterial
activity.
