Are you just asking for fun?" replied
Billy Robin, "or don't you really truly

caused her to hale John before Magis-

was due to the fact that nothing in the

And worse than that, when he 'liqul-

sacrifices that would make an auctioneer

chops, brought out at Moneys hearing
When she was asked about this she de-
cared he first started to bring tender
lamb chops to her last year. when she
complained of having had no return on
her investments.
One day last week, before the discov-
cry of her plight by a relative, Mrs. Mel
VILE was visited by Mooney. She says
he wanted more money, large amount.
When she explained that her money was
all gone Mooney went out and bought
her some lamb chops.
Mooney filed a petition in bankruptcy

People only learn what they teach them

So Timmy Graybill prlcked his ears
ready to listen and Billy Robin went in
search of spring makers.
First he flew to the very highest tree
and reconnoitered. CAnd Timmy Graytail
watched every move he made you may
be sure).
He saw dead looking brown trees, dirty
brown grass and patches of snow from
the storm the day before. "Not very
good spring material there whispered
Timmy Graytail to himself, but like a
wise little rabbit he kept on looking at
Billy Robin.
Now Billy Robin up on the tree saw
all these dull brown things. but he saw
more than that-Oh dear me, yes! He
saw the light brown tips of the branches
He saw the tiny, tiny sprouts of green
down under, partly under, the dead brown
leaves, and he nodded his head and began
to sing.
That's a funny proceeding" said
Tlmmy Graytall to himself, 'I can't see
how his singing is going TO make spring
helpers comet But then you see, Timmy
didn't know much,
For 1t DID make helpers come-oh, dear
me, yes-helpers In plenty! Down in the
ground the violets heard Billy singing
Up In the trees the buds swelled as they
heard his song. Even the breezes blew
softly so as to listen and the beetles and
insects stirred in their winter nests. And
before Timmy Graytail knew what had
happened, the forest was full of life and
stir-spring had come! "Now / know
how spring is made" said Timmy
Graytail to himself; "spring is made by
a robins song"

other side. In fact, several years
ago there came into vogue photo
graphs Of people consisting of the
right half of their face taken straight
and the right half taken in a mirror.
These two were pasted together so
that the resulting photograph was
really not the right and left sides of
the PERSONS face, but two right sides,
the left side in the photograph being
the mirror image of the right side Of
the face.
Any one with camera may &C.
complish this feat with little
patience. Simply take two negatives
Of the subject in the same position
and ut the same distance, or just
one negative will do, used twice.
Then print one negative correctly
and the other one with the wrong
side Of the plate to the sensitive
paper. Then split each photograph
with scissors directly down the mid
die and paste the right half OF the
correct negative to the left half Of
the reversed one and you have
picture Of yourself composed Of the
Two right halves OF your face. Now
paste the other halves together and
compare the two resulting photo
graphs. Always will one be found
that Is to be desired thousand
times more than the other. This is
generally, science shows. the one

ious with what is now known of the
effects Of yelling the face. 1t allows
certain stolidity OF appearance
even to the most nervous. Yelled
women should make excellent poker
players. rivalling the excellence OF
the wooden-faced Chinee in this re.
gard.
AS an actual effect and not hyp-
Noticed one, the peculiarly figured
wells take the prize. The effects
here are most certainly on the be-
holder, and, OF course, on the wearer
when she beholds herself in tho
mirror. Suppose that a woman has

that these veil beauty spots may be
worn In the streets or at church or
anywhere, instead Of just at a dance
or reception, thereby making the
wearer much more dangerous to the
opposite sex.
OF course wells have other uses
than those outlined above. They
are used very often to hold the hair
in place or to hold a curl at a cer-
tain place on the face-sometimes
an artificial curl at that This, too,
