Dear Miss Grey: My naturally

the last few months. What is the
cause, and what can | do to restore
the curl? H. w.

ton and must be due to a change
in your general health. Improve
your health. shampoo your hail

ly twice day. In a few months
your hair will probably regain its
curl.
Dear Miss Grey: What can
do to overcome talking in my
sleep? What causes it? M.
ADO not eat too heavy a meal
in the evening. Take a good, brisk
walk for an hour before retiring.
Have the room we'll ventilated, and
don't take your worries to bed. 1t is
due to activity of the brain during
sleep, and lack of complete relaxa-
ton.
Dear Miss Grey: A brown sub
stance has formed on my teeth near
the gums. Is there any way | can
remove it? SUBSCRIBER.
A.-Clean your teeth once a week
with powdered pumice stone. and
once week with white soapsuds.
Twice a week use one-half strength
peroxide hydrogen as mouth wash.
Dear Miss Grey: | have no in
digestion, nor do | wear tight cloth
ing, but my nose becomes red and
perspires when | go into a warm
room from outdoors. What can | do
for it? WORRIED.
A.-Bathe the face with cold
water when you come indoors. This
will aid in controlling the circula-
ton.
Dear Miss Grey: Tell me the
best way of cooking pigs feet. My
husband says he is very fond of
them and as am anxious to please
him will be glad to hear from you.
A. The best way Of cooking

Dear Miss Grey: What will take

A.-When in doubt apply the
golden rule. Would you wish
your husband to write in secret to

THE GRATEFUL ANTS.


A great many years ago there
lived in Wales crusty old chief
called Thorn Thistle, who had a
beautiful daughter, Olwen. Fair
as a lily was she, with cheeks
like pink roses and hair of spun
gold.
She was dearly beloved by Kill
wich. one of the knights Of King
Arthur. But her father named sew
eral tasks that Kilwich must per
form before he could marry Olwen.
One task was that the knight must
gather the IL bushels Of flaxseed
which had been sown in a field
years before and had never come
up.
Kilwich set out to do this task,
but it was impossible for him to
find all the seeds, and feeling much
discouraged he sat down by the
roadside. He heard peculiar
wailing sound. Looking about he
saw no one, but again he heard
the weeping, and looking down be-
held near him a large anthill, whose
inhabitants were weeping because
fire was burning up the grass
and would soon destroy their home.
Feeling sorry for them, kilwich
dug out the anthill with his sword
and put 1t safely ON the other side

What the LalU Alows
Women of Washin,

Only in personal injury cases and
actions growing out of the death of
man by negligence does the state
of Washington show any niggardliS
ness in the protection accorded
women in the law. Widows have a
right to sue for damages when a
husbands death is caused by the
negligence of another person.
Mothers and minor brothers and
sisters who may have been entirely
dependent upon the decedent dur
ing his lifetime for support can Sc
cure no provision from the corpora
ton or person whose neglect or
carelessness causes the death of
the provider
For the death of the husband the
widow can secure damages sup
posed to be equal to his earning
power during his life expectancy
and also compensation for the loss
of his companionship Minor chill
dren also can maintain an action
for the death of the father to COM
pensate them for the loss of his
support.
Nothing for the Mother.
A mother or father can main
tain action if his or her child I'M
der legal age is killed by the neg
ligence of another. The amount

CORRECT:

To be well dressed a woman must
be appropriately dressed. Not only
must her gown be appropriate to
the occasion, but the other articles
of her attire must be appropriate to
the gown. How often do we see
woman wearing a tailor gown and
dress hat. Her attire Is in dis

says: I'VE are out calling" and
