ship ahoy! Don't run over us,
shouted Billy. The glum and gloomy
pirates never paid any. attention &c
them. That was probably because the
pirates didn't have any idea that two
children were struggling in the sea. The
pirates had been sailing back and forth
, over that same sea hundreds Of years
ever since they had been shut up in the
diamond by Magiscos magic. and never
had they seen any one or anything IN
It, not even fish.
''Oh. wish some one would rescue
us" cried Peggy. At once she got her
wish, but not in the way expected.
Two of the gloomy pirates, got into q
row and one gloomy pirate knocked the
other gloomy pirate slam bang over
the ships rail. Splash, he plunged
into the sea right beside Peggy and
Billy. At the same moment the ship
swung around, just missing the swim
ming children.
A third pirate hurled a rope to the
pirate in the. water. This the other
pirate grabbed.
And as he grabbed it Peggy and Billy
grabbed him. They saw way to get
saved from the tumbling seq.

Read Your Character
By Diqby Hips
No. 22-ROund Faces

The science of character reading
classifes faces. viewed from the front,
into three general divisions. One Of
these has been described rs the dome
head" the head of the thinker. The
dome head" is broadest above the ears
and tapers down TO n pointed chin.
The round face Is another type. It's
broadest point is at the height of the
ears or thPrPabOuts. It's the truly oval
shaped face.
Can you think Of force without on
ergy. power combined with plncidity,
keen vitality that makes for consttu-
tional strength without either muscular
strength or nervous energy predom-
mating?
II YOU can. you've graspcd the key
note Of the character, both mental and
physical. indicated by the round face.
It's the face of the person who works
for results more than for the sheer JOY
of working. In other words. it de-
notes practicality in the affairs of life.
Round faced people are bound to be
people of good Judgment, provided other
things are equal in their mental
makeup.
Among men seq If you don't find them
heavily represented in the ranks Of the
bankers and the merchandisers. Their
ability to balance values accurately fits
them peculiarly for these walks Of life.
In the legal profession, for instance.
you're more likely to find the round
face on the bench rather than as n
vigorous cross -questioncr browbeatng a
witness. Positively the inclination is
that way, though force Of circumstances
may balk its fulfllment. The round
face is also the face of the executive.
