this thing as l cannot do thing with
it. curled it for while, but it was
not becoming. 1t is now as short as it
was when l cut it, about a month and
half ago. 1t does not seem to grow any,
but is uneven, but l do not care to cut
it even. for want it to grow as long
as it can, so l can comb my hair like
/ used to. have to wear n hat when -
ever ] 60 out, If l want to or not, for
my hair will not 60 up on the sides. i
am only fourteen, but look as IL | were
seventeen. | thank you very much If
you can tell me how to fix my hair and
what l can do to the sides to make 1t
grow long in a short time. Thanking
you very much, I am MISS d. NJ.
The only thing you can do is to curl
your hair on the sides until it grows
longer. 1t has probably grown a little
in this time, but you haven't noticed
the difference. Hair doesn't grow very
fast, you know. If you are only four
teen it will not look badly to let your
hair hang in curls on the sides, but If
you prefer to have it back you can
catch it just back Of your ears with small
combs that wouldn't show very much.
Turn it back so that it falls softly over
the ears. and then let the back hang or
else hold it in with ribbon or barrette.

ALL HIS FUNNY SPEECHES

Billy will outgrow this phase, of
course; but by the time he does outgrow
IL everybody who loved him as natu-
rally funny child, free from self
sciousness, will dislike him as con-
ceited, noisy little Smart Alec" His
mouth takes on an expression now that
stays after he grows up, and people will
see IL before they see his disposition and
his character, and they will decide
"He's a smarty."
Billy can't be blamed for showing off.
His mother has given him the idea that
he is professional entertainer. He
thinks he must live up to her ideals.
Ard, anyhow. he likes the attention.
He is too little to know thht It Is only
his spontaneous, natural remarks that
are funny. It is his mother who does
the wrong. BY talking about him, re-
peating his original speeches in his
presence, she makes him conscious of
himself, anxious to be laughed ut. And
then he isn't funry--is there anything
worse than a child who is always show
ing off? IL there Is, it's the mother who
encourages him in IL by laughing at him
and repeating his remarks. ....

Dear Cynthia--I am young girl and

He told me he loved me and we sealed
it with a kiss, I, believing in his love,
have permitted him to hug and kiss me.
Then came the shot.

for fun; he did so to all girls; he had
only loved one girl and she married an
other. He said, perhaps some day,
little girl, we may find soulmates in each
other"

For HouseWork

A good nail-brush may be made to
save hours of time in doing the house
work. Gas or electric globes with en-
bossed patterns that are so difficult to
clean may be washed quickly and easily
by soaking in warm suds, then scrub
bing with the brush. Toilet combs
treated in the same way are clean in a
jiffy If the brush is worked back and
forth between the soiled teeth. A comb
left in the washing machine while a
tubful of clothes is being put through
comes out perfectly clean without any
extra work.-Woman's World.

GRAFTON, IAN able, experienced and dis

with having located IAN ore body of
unusual magnitude in and on the west
hill, where the indications are excep-

tary- treasurer of the Intermountain
company. The property is situated
about 10 miles from Iron Mountain,
Mont, and was originally known as
the Amador. Continuing. Mr.. Daeufer
says:
1.-The geologist finds that there are
three distinct and well defined Chin
neys of ore on the west hill all con-
nected by an ore shoot Of consider
able dimensions, and he feels certain
that these contain large bodies of sill
ver-lead ore that can be worked pro-
ftably through a tunnel driven to the
first chimney and on to the second
and third chimneys, simply by follow
ing the connecting ore shoot. The
tunnel to reach the first chimney will
be approximately 400 feet in length,
of which 100 feet has been driven
1.-THE amount of the assessment to
be levied at this time is half a cent a
share This will pay for driving the
additional 300 feet to the first chin
ney and for other minor equipment
that will be necessary in case a con-
siderable body of ore is encountered
when the first chimney is reached"
