WHY DO YOU WANT to write about
beautifying the ears?" queried q
friend who saw some notes about
future Beauty Chats lying on my
desk. why, hardly anyone shows
their ears any more-it's almost Inn
modest to let them out for public
gaze. Besides, who wants beautiful
ears? II you have them. al right
il you haven't, you drape your hair
over them and forget them. Tho day
of the heroine with tho shell-like ear
has passed, along with tho gallant
who whispered sweet nothtngs into
them and wrote bad poetry about
them"
smiled at her" remarks. AS .
matter Of fact, there is little one can
do to beautify the ears, except to
keep them clean. II their shape 10
bad, one can, a. my friend remarked,
drape them over with hair and for.
get them.
However, Q httle massage 10 bene-
f1cial. And massaging the ears will
often relieve q headache. Mako the
strokes downward behind the ear,
and upward into the hair, pressing
hard, then gently massage tho inner
part of the ears themselves. This
brings blood into them, and Incl
dentally into the brain, making the
head feel better, and giving tho she'll
like tints our old novels used to en-
phasize. When the ears are pink, tho
blood is circulating properly through
the head, when they are white, the
blood has not been beating through
tho veins as 1t should.
All massage movements should
press the ears against the head, not
away from it. Special care should
be taken of children's ears, for boys
and girls with great ears standing
away from their heads are objects Of
pity, and often, alas! Of ridicule. The
ears should be washed al often a.
the face, and the loose wax kept
washed of.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE sTORK
CONTINUED from Thursday

Continued from Thursday
Right this way!" exclaimed the
barber stork, as he led Uncle Wigily
up to the chair. There the rabbit
gentleman sat down and the long leg.
ged barber bird wrapped towels and
| things around him and got ready to
give him hair cut.
But / don't see your scissors" re-
marked Uncle Wiggily as he glanced
into the looking glass to see If his ears
were on straight. How can you cut
my hair without scissors?"
"Oh, I use my long BILL" said the
stork, as he clapped and clashed it to.
gether, just as the real barber does
with his scissors when he Is going to
cut baby brothers curls off for the first
time.
Well, Uncle Wiggily was lying back
in the chair, waiting for the barber
stork to begin, and. the stork was
sharpening his bill on piece of sand
paper, when, all OF sudden, a voice
out on the boardwalk called:
Hurry! Hurry! Come here barber
stork! Here is Mr. Stubtail, a bear
man who wants some of the fur cut. off
his fur overcoat. He can't wait"
AL right" answered the barber
stork, "I'll come at once. Just excuse
me-" he said to Uncle Wiggily, "Tll
be back in little moment"
So out the stork ran, to trim some OF
the whiskers of Mr.. Stubtail's fur over
coat and the next minute into the bar
Der shop jumped the bad sea lion. It
was he who had called the stork out OF
the shop. For that bad sea lion wanted
to catch Uncle Wiggily. you know, and
there wasn't any man at all who want
ed the whiskers trimmed off his fur
coat. Mr.. Stubtail. the papa OF Ned
die and Beckie, the two bear children,
was not even in sight! Now, what do
you think about that; Ell?
"Now have you!" cried the sea
lion to Uncle Wiggily, as the old
gentleman rabbit sat in the barber
storks chair. Nov have you!

Children's Evening Story

didn't get you last night, but I have
you now!"
"Oh. my!" cried Uncle wiggily. "Oh
me! Oh my! What shall do?'
So he tried to jump out of the big
barber chair, but he was so wound up
IN the towels, you see, that he couldn't
get up.
"Ah, ha! I have you," cried the sea
lion. Then he raised himself up on his
f1ippers, he opened his mouth and
showed his long teeth, and he was just
going to grab our Uncle Wiggily when,
all at once, as quickly as you can eat
a popcorn cake, into the shop, popped
the stork. He saw the sea lion going
to grab the rabbit gentleman and that
brave stork cried:
"Out of my shop, bad creature that
was no bear man at all who wanted
his fur overcoat trimmed! You are
bad sea lion! You just want to hurt
Uncle Wiggily! Out l say, Boof-Woof
Wow"
And all this while Uncle wiggily
was trying to get out of the barber
chair but he couldn't and the sea lion
was trying to get him and then tho
brave stork sprang forward and with
his long bill he tickled the bad sea lion
creature who kersneezed three times,
so hard that its teeth nearly fell out.
"Now, run away. you naughty sea-
lion, you'll" cried the stork. 49,. ..
Then the sea lion was glad enough,
tell you, to jump back into the ocean
where he belonged. Right across the
boardwalk he jumped and our Uncle
Wiggily was safe, and the barber stork
trimmed of his hair and made him
look nice and everybody was happy but
the sea lion.
Then Uncle Wiggily went back to
his hollow stump hotel and he had
more adventures. I'll tell you Of one
on the next page, when the story will
be about Uncle Wiggily and the fussy
fish hawk-that is, If the board walk

at That Time.

Daily passenger service will be es-
tablished on both the Mott and Kill.
deer branches commencing May Is,
according to recent announcement
by officials of the Northern Pacific
railroad. This announcement will be
received joyfully by hundreds of pat
rons of the road and there is every
indication that everyone concerned
will be benefited by the branch SER
vice.
Trains will leave both Mott and
killdeer at about o'clock in the
morning and will arrive in this city
around noon. Connections will be
made with Trains No. and 50
that passengers on both the branch
g will be accommodated.
Agent W. A. Mcdonald of the local
Office stated to a representative of
the Tribune last evening that the
schedule has not been received here
as yet but is expected within the next
few days.
This service will give persons
wishing to come here for business
purposes chance to spend about two
hours and a half in the city and will
enable them to return home the same
day. 1t will entirely obviate the
necessity Of spending day travelling
to Mandan, another day for business
and third day getting home again
