FORGOT ONE LITTLE THING
Next Time Dad Will Be More Careful
in Assembling the Various Parts OF
Safety Razor.

"I'll stop shaving" swore dad, as he
appeared at the breakfast table with
sundry pieces of court-plaster >decorat-
ing his face. 81 cut myself more and
more every day."
"Why not get a safety raZor?" asked
George, who had lately commenced to
shave himself Its ever so comfy. I'll
lend you mine to try, and show you
how it works"
Father agreed to make the expert
ment and was duly instructed in as
sembling the lethal weapon. Next morn
ing, however, when he reached the
breakfast table his face was more torn
and cut than ever.
"Hang your safety razOr." he
growled. ''It hurts more than my old
one did! Why, 1 had to pull like the
dickens, and when at last did manage
to get the hair off 1 brought the skin
off as WE'LL!
George was mystifed. His safety
was Il razor to swear by and he deter
mined to investigate. He entered the
bathroom and shrieked with laughter.
When the family had administered
first aid he explained:
"No wonder you had such bad time
with the safety razor, dad.' he gurgled.
"You forgot to put the blade in!''

Diet for the Lean.


DR.. Louis Henry Levy, in Pictorial
Review says:
Though the lean individual may be
the more agile and vigorous, leanness
is also associated with those of a
nervous temperament. 1t is not al
ways a desirable condition, since it
prematurely ages the face by the early
appearance of wrinkles. 1t is also the
accompaniment of chronically diseased
stomachs, resulting from disturbed
digestion and poor absorption of the
digested foods.
"The foods which are best adapted
for the lean are those that have been
denied to the obese person-the
starches, sugars, and fats, but suffi-
cient care must be exercised to pre-
vent disturbing an entirely good stom-
ach. Let the lean one eat well of the
rich foods and sever relations with
the sour and spicy ones. Above all,
let her cultivate a sunny, restful dis
position, with nervous system under
steady control, for these are the trade
marks of the robust and plump per-
son."
