WANTED TO KNOW
The Truth About Grape.Nuts Food.

1t doesn't matter so much what you

Is most likely to come from personal
experience.

acidity of the stomach and felt much

"By the end of the second week all

The reader will wonder where the wayfarels
slept while they were engaged In carrying out their
convention plans. Others wondered, too, but one
early-rising farmer near Clifford determined for
himself when he found the committee upon the

Ginning benches In the parks, some utilized fence
corners, while the more listless of the order salts
fed themselves with such luxuries OF sleep as were
furnished underneath front porchos.
All in all, it must be said that the con 'ention
was a great success, more enthusiasm attending
the meeting than ever before. There was moro
grub, less allusion to soap and water and lots OF
sleep for The tourists.

run the knife under the rind as far
back as you are going to cut 1t for the
meal every time and lap the rind down
over the ham, where you have left of
cutting. 1t will always keep moist
and will not mold II you do not use II
again for several days. 1t also saves
dulling the knife. as the rind is the

The Way He Treated Her.


Dear Marjory Doom:
I am a girl of Is. and very much in
love with d young man whom I have
only met about three times. The last
time l saw him he was going to New
York, and said he would meet me the
next night, but he did not show up,
and I did not see him for about three
weeks. Last night I met him again on
Broad street, and he said he had some
business to attend to and for me to
meet him at New and Halsey streets
in ten minutes. AS I love him very
much please advise me what to do. I
heard HE was married and asked him If
1t was true and he said no. Will you
please tell me how I can find out
whether he is or not. Please answer
right away. ANXIOUS.
I wish you would try to forget this
man. I imagine that he thinks o are
a regular little goose to pemit him to
treat you as he likes, making and
breaking engagements as he likes. If
you have any doubts as to whether or
not he is married I advise you to stay
away from him completely. You are
very foolish to even admit to yourself
that you care for him. Surely, you
cannot think he is worth 1t.

A Series of Questions.


Dear Madame Alta:
I read your advice to others in THE
EVENING STAR every day. Please
tell me what to use to make my hair
light. I am a brunette. I use water on
my hair every morning. Is it good to
make the hair grow and make it lighter
In color? Please tell me-. too. what is
good for freckles and pimples. Is
warm or cold water the best to wash
the face to make the skin white?
L. c., A READER.
There is nothing to make the hair
light but the use Of chemicals, such as
peroxide of hydrogen, salts Of tartar,
soda and the like, and 1 would posi-
lively not advise you to use any Of
them, as they will destroy the growth
of the hair in time. Wash your hair
every two or three weeks with good
CASTLE soap, and If possible dry it in
the SUM-. I don't know that using
water on the a will make 1t grow or
cause 1t to become light. Keep the
scalp clean and healthy. That is the
most necessary thing to make the hair
healthy. A remedy for freckles was
published in Mondays EVENING
STAR. To rid you face Of pimples,
wash it well with hot water and pure
CASTLE soap and scrub gently with a
cansel's hair brush. Touch the pimples
with a solution of peroxide of hydro
gen, which will cause them to dry up
and heal. After drying the face care
fully rub in a little good cold cream.

The Dry shampoo.


The dry shampoo Is recognized as one
OF the best methods of cleaning the
scalp and hair too, though 1t Is recon-
mended mostly for the scalp. While
the ordinary powders, such as talcum,
rice n msgnesia can be used, there
are regular powders that not only
cleanse the hair and scalp, but leave
the hair delightfully."- fragrant after
ward. A powder can be made at home
with equal portions of talcum and orris
root. Havei 1t literally sprinkled on the
scalp and through the hair. If the hair
Is excessively oily, it may take w
treatments to get 1t clean. Rub the
powder through the hair and over the
scalp with a rotary movement of the
fingers; this massage is beneficial also.
Brush the hair with a good bristle
brush, frequently shaking 1t and wiping
the bristles on q clean towel to remove
grease and powder. Next brush every
portion of the scalp, parting the hair for
the purpose. In cases where much
dandruff is noticed, the fine tooth comb
win assist in cleaning the scalp, though
the brush is necessary for brushing the
hair free from powder.
If the hair is delicately scented, 1t Is
pleasant and this can be lone by spray
ing the head with the perfume atomizer.
The French use no alcoholic perfumes
for the hair, realizing it soon evapor-
ates. Each person purchases the oil Of
roses, violets or any preferred flower in
it's strongest form. It takes but a pin
head drop of this to scent ever a
heavy head of hair and the odor is very
lasting. Violet and roses are preferred
odors, though mixed doors are often
used to produce something new and
original. A dry shampoo will be found
refreshing and can be enjoyed often in

OUR CHILDREN'S CORNER
A MIMIC CLUB.

P-ErV HIS game provides lots of amuse-
ment to a company OF young
folks, and TO grown ones, too IL
they wish to join in.
All the players with the exception OIL
two leave the room. One OF the OUT
side party is then called in, and toJo
that a new club has been formed anu
his name enrolled, but that he cannot
be formally admitted unless he can
guess the name of the club from the
movements of the two members who re-
manned in the room.
The "initiate" is then offered a chalr'
and everything he says and every
movement he makes is mimicked by the
other two.
Sometimes the new member guesses
at once, but when unable to do this, II
is very funny to watch the effect that
the copying of his every movement has
upon him, especially when six or seven
have been admitted.
When the name of the club has been
guessed. another new member is in
1ited in. and the same program axes
place.
