Perhaps you will win next month's atvard Unfair Judgment IHave Always wondered, after reading letters criticizing the different movie stars, why people are not broadminded enough to consider that when a player appears in a certain production he cannot be judged by the part he plays any more than our home talent actors or school children can be judged by the parts they play in amateur shows. It is very unfair and not good sense to judge a girl "hard," "course," "loud," "crude" and so forth because she has appeared in a role of that character. It is her work and she is doing it in as conscientious a manner as anyone applies himself to his particular task. ($1.00 Letter) HAZEL BROOKS, Waupun, Wis. Fears for the Men ! IN THE May issue of your magazine I read the article entitled, Are Pretty Girls Safe in Hollywood? and I think it should be changed to Are Handsome Men Safe in Hollywood? My opinion is that the girls can take care of themselves, but it is the men who are usually in danger. In this modern age girls know what they want and evidently intend to get it.

And here's the reason. It's so easy to takeit's so modernly scientific because it mixes the laxative with digestive juices, thus letting nature do its part in helping the laxative work more thoroughly. FEEN-A-MINT gently increases the movement of the lower intestine, which is what nature wants. It doesn't give you that distended feeling that many cathartics do, it does not cause cramps. And, above all, it is not habit-forming. Join the more than 15 millions who take their laxative this modern, easy way— by chewing FEEN-A-MINT. I REALLY LOVE THE TASTE OF FEEN-A-MINTand IT CERTAINLY WORKS MORE EFFECTIVELY AND SMOOTHLY THAN ANY OTHER LAXATIVE I'VE EVER TRIED. feenamint ytfe Qu4VlHf-(jtMH LAXATIVE SEPTEMBER, 1934
