1t was their first visit to Cali
cutta, a city in far-away India.
Ted and Grace had tired of stay
ing in the hotel, and begged their
father to take them to see the In
dian jugglers do their wonderful
tricks.
81 want to see the man charm
the snakes" said Ted.
81 DON'T" spoke up Grace; "you
know, l hate snakes"
After the children had argued
awhile, their father decided the
matter by leading them into a
doorway nearby. Here in a part
ly darkened room they saw a
brown-skinned Hindoo juggler sit
ting cross-legged on the floor. He
motioned his visitors to be seated
on cushions on the floor, and I'M
covered a basket nearby he took
up a long reedlike instrument
and began to blow queer, weird
notes.
Suddenly Grace gave little
squeal, for there, crawling out
of the basket, was a cobra. She
was sure 1t was the poisonous
cobra because Just back of its
head the hood she had heard
about was swelling larger than
its head. On the back of this
hood was a queer mark like an eye
of spectacles. That is why it is
sometimes called the "spectacled
snake"
Out of the basket crawled the
snake. and then, raising his body
straight up, kept time by swayine
his head to the music, dancing the
best way his snakeship knew how
When the music was over the Jug
gler picked up his pet and
stroked it. Both Grace and Tex
exclaimed, isn't he afraid 1t will
bite him?"
NO" said their father. "The

Gus. but when tanned it seldom
hurts it's friends. Why, one man

cobra pets loose in his house. You
see, the snake knows the juggler
is his friend"
On the way to the hotel Grace
said. Let the juggler have his
pet cobra. l would rather have

Dear Miss Grey:
What can l usesin room where
there is gas to keep dampness
away? How soon should invita-
lions be out for a birthday sur
prise, and would "R. s. V. F." be
proper here? IN DOUBT.
A.: Fresh air will do more
than anything else to remove the
dampness caused by gas.
At least ten days. The letters
r. S. v. P. on the invitations are
proper at any time and at any
place when you wish to know how
many guests to expect.
Dear Miss Grey:
would like to know some way
to clean feathers besides washing
them in a sack. Mine are duck
feathers and look clean but have
an offensive odor. A READER.
A.: There is no better way
than the one you mention. The
odor probably comes from drying
the feathers in the sun, which
brings out the oil. Always hang
up the sacks of feathers in a high
wind If possible, and let remain
until dry. Never hang them in the
sun.
Dear Miss Grey:
What can I do to keep my hair
from falling? My cousin arrives
soon from Europe. What shall
we do to entertain her the first
day she arrives? E. L. w.
A: % Brush your hair with
a clean brush night and morning.

weeks with CASTLE soap suds and
rinse well. Massage lightly each
night.

very large one, having thirty-tive

The Lemoines will sell their ranch
