MAN. STUDY YOUR HAIR!
Then Before You Comb Il Study the
Architecture of Your Face.

Architecture OF Your Face.
Just as surely as hair Is woman's
browning glory II Is mans glorious
crowning-that is. TO those that have
It. Those whose heads have pushed
up through their hair usually use u
huckaback towel for the delicate proc
ess Of parting the hair. but unless one
has the peculiar requirements II is not
worth while to cultivate them.
Men with low. squatting foreheads
should not pull their hair down over
their brows. and men whose foreheads
are beginning to work back should in
yite their locks down. If your hair has
quietly slipped down toward your ears
op each side, leave IL there. Ii you
bring 1t up in strings and Msps 1t will
merely look like climbing vines and
will never really have the free aud
easy homelike appearance that ought
to be the part of all natural hair.
Do not part your hair any earlier
than you can help. Hair is In hurry
these days. anyway. Usually 1t doesn't
stay more than long enough to make
sure that the baby Is going to be a boy
before 1t hastens Off. 1t will part Of
itself soon enough the best you can do.
Before combing your hair you should
get acquainted with the architecture
Of your face. If your face is of the
harvest moon variety do not inlay
your hair. Puff it up as much as pos
sible. It's better to look like feather
duster on a Monday morning than a
scratched billiard ball on a Saturday
night.
But If your face is Of a long. gallop-
ing ensemble do not encourage your
hair to fluff. Instead keep it down
close to headquarters. If your head
inclines to run up to a cone do not
spread your hair around in imitation
of q palm tree thatch. Rather fluff 1t
up and windrow 1t for fear some IN
bred person will begin to talk about
spring radish tops.-Homer Croy in

The Bald Eaale's Nest.

Among birds the home of the bald
eagle is perhaps the most striking, pos
si5ly because of the majesty of the
bird itself. 1t appeals to the magma
ton. Built of huge sticks loosely in
terwoven and situated on some lofty
and inaccessible ledge, with the bones
of the eagles victims scattered round
about it. it gives proper setting to
the stern and savage character of its
builder. Here the eagle reigns sn-
preme. and here year after year he and
his mate rear their young. This is
the aerie from which he can scan the
whole countryside and. like the robber
barons of old. levy toll on all who pass
his door.

SIGNS OF LONG HARD WINTER
Muskrats are Building Their House
High, Dry, Large and Warm.

Muskrat trappers recently made a
statement that caused cold chills to
run down the backs of spectators who
love the. good old summer time and
that alone.
This will be one of the most severe
winters in recent years." said the trap
pers, who are more numerous in Della
ware this year because of the demand
Tor all kinds of fur bearing animals,
made more insistent by the increasing
use of automobile toys.
There is one infallible way to tell
said one. The muskrat like the
beaver. is cunning aquatic animal
possessed Of superior foresight, and
when winter of unusual length and
severity is approaching he builds his
house with unexcelled skill. He builds
nigh and dry. Reeds, cat-tails
grasses of the lands and marshes. and
theh d sealing of mud and clay are all
used by the wise little builders until
cold ar and raindrops are effectuaIlv
barred Then he makes his house high
so he can go in and keep above tho
rising tides. When a mild winter an
pfoacnes the muSkrats spend very lit :
oelid small houses. This year, how
ever they are high ana large. and can
and do accommodate as many as 20
muSkrats."
The speaker declared that no matte,
now many Inhabitants a house could
accommodate. the black muskrats did
nor associate with the brown, and I'M
dcr no circumstances did they breed
together.
MusKrat men arc stepping high. and
an army now follows the business of
trapping, as the muskrat furs or pelts
Tor years worth only 20 to So cents,
