We all have some physical feature that Is too big or too little to fit in with niir other features. If we allowed ourselves to be con cerned about this matter, it could make us very unhappy. That is what is happening to this young girl who writes: (Q) "I am 17 yaars old and hav a rather long nose for my age. I am very conscious of this. I think what makes me especially conscious is that I have had boy friends and other folks say things to me about it. When I am at school or go out In public, I imagine everyone is looking at my nose and making remarks about it. Is there any way I can overcome this complex? D. L.

Naturally, these comments make you self-con scious about your nose but think about the rudeness of the people who made the comments and that will help you to forget about your nose.
