Daddy Bedtirne
O. The Worm and
DTOI q The Naughty
Old Spider

I'D you ever see a measuring worm, schndrenT" asked DADDY.
mot that we know of" answered Jack and Evelyn. What ara
measuring worms hke?'
of legs On the very back of their body and another short pair in front which
they use something like arms They have a funny way If getting the
ground when they walk. First the little worm takes a tight grip of the
its little body forms a loop Then 1t moves the front feet forward and draws
the hind feet after them again. I'm afraid IL little boys and girls had to get
to school that way they would all be late
from the door of an old shed The worms head was hanging downward,
almost touching the ground, which it raj trying to reach. but or som strange
reason could not touch Every time the wind blew the worm swung back
and forth.
81 wonder how that little measuring worm got caught thereg Mabel said.
ghe little girl drew nearerto the worm. and then she saw that he hung
o. the end of a long thread of eobweb.
Poor worm. I'll help him down and watch what he'll do Mabel cried
go she broke the spiders thread Just Is the wormf fell TO the ground a
big spider ran quickly down from the bush N which the thread vas swung.
"oh, you naughty SPIDER cried Mabel SO you had that thread swinging
there to catch a dinner for YOURSELF You just let that poor little worm alone
She pushed the spider away with her stick, and the measuring worm erawled
slowly away.
"That night when Mabel went to sleep she saw the Sam little measuring
worm with a pair of nice brown wings to carry him gracefully through the
air.. He few right to her window and said:
"tThank you, little girl. for saving m 10 from that horrd spider. Every
evening when 1 crawl out of my bed among the leaves In yon bush l win
come to the window and see you
Perhaps Mabel dreamed this, but thu brown wings IN the little worm
were all right. for measuring worms are only baby moths. When the measur
ing worn begins to grow 1t crawls into a hole in the ground Oh wraps a little
web around its body, just a Jack wraps the sheet around himself when he
rolls over and I'VE a night Then the worm goes to sleep, and by and by
when 1t wakes up 1t has little wings Of its back and can ny wherever ii likes
Instead OF crawling slowly and painfully over the ground"

Never Drink Water.

Never Drink Water.
In Lower California a large number
Of the smaller desert mammals never
drink water, according to American
scientists who have recently visited
the peninsula. They live and thrive
on dry seeds and scraps OF vegetation
in places where the heat and aridity
are excessive without eve touching
their lips to water, and 1t has even
been found impossible TO teach some
of them to take water In captivity.

Milady's
Mirror



Have you ever seen hands so sensi'
tive they actually conveyed the mood
of their owner to the world at large
And haven't you noticed thick, blunt
hands that entirely marred the effects
OF a beautiful face and figure OF per.
feet symmetry Without graceful.
well kept hands no atmosphere of re-
1nement Ia conveyed and no beauty
ensemble Is complete.
Care of the hands should be the first
and last item Of the toilet. The wa
ter in which they are bathed is best
when just tepid unless the hands are
soiied, In which case warm water is
preferred. A stubborn stain will gen
orally yield to pumice stone.
When the hair, the face, the teeth
and all Of beauty's features have re
ceiyed their allotted amount of atten-
ton ways and means of preserving
the wilderness and softness Of the
hands are considered. Bran, oatmeal
and almond meal are useful agents for
this purpose, especially to complete
the drying of tender hands and to pre-.
vent chapping. Dry the hands with
a medium hard towel, then polish the
skin by rubbing it with bran or meal.
The principle is that the bran, becom'
Ing moist. is partially absorbed by the
open pores, and the skin becomes
white and soft.
The white of an egg mixed with one
ounce of glycerfn Is an excellent
agent for cleansing the hands. 1t is
used instead of soap, but should moi
be allowed to remain on the skin, lest
the glycerin cause 1t to become dry
and harsh. A bath Of warm water will
remove all trace of the egg.
The passing Of years is recorded
palmer In the hands than in the face
for the very good and sufficient rea
son that the face receives more care
than the hands. Those plump, sensi
tive hands and rose tipped fingers re
tanned by the woman long past middle
age are the result of uniagging atten
ton, of which the bran or meal bath
ia a vastly important factor.

s~eruhbing ths Faos.


The face is a part Of u body which
needs the utmost attention, because 1t
is also the part which is most exposed.
Some persons are afraid of using any
but the gentiest motions upon the face,
yet 1t is q fact that scrubbing the face
is a very good thing as an occasional
treatment, that 1t opens the pores in
a way such as they cannot otherwise
be opened, that 1t takes out accumu-
lated dirt, and, best Of all for pale peo-
pie, 1t brings about a healthy circula-
ton and a rich glow to the cheeks
which Is an attractive addition to most
compilations. A small brush called a
%nailbrush Is good as an instrument
for this scrubbing process, and there
should be some elbow grease applied
here as well as In other domestic
cleansing processes. 1t is considered
quite old fashioned nov to be afraid TO
give at least one good scrubbing 6
week to the face.

Beauty SUGGESTIONS.

The women who are too stout for
beauty are generally addicted to the
habit of wearing extremely short
skirts. whereas If they were truly wise
they would yea gowns just long
enough to escape the floor.
High heeled shoes are also taboo
for the short woman. as they are sure
to destroy proportions.
Fashion this year has been kind to
the who lacks TN height. as II
has been deereed that eollarless frocks
are to be worn throughout the winter.
What the short woman should not
do:
She should not dress her hair low,
but mass it on the top of her head.
She should not wear extremely high
or ludicrously fat hats
She should not lengthen her waist
line to such a degree that she is out of
proportion.
She should not refuse to exercise.
