Just to look around. when he saw on the
floor an old book"
On the cover was picture Of cat

he saw that picture he said. 1T must be
the picture Of my father. Puss in Boots
Tor that was the name Of the story book

The little boy looked at Puss Junior.
Then he glanced at his red-topped boots
and then ne gave a happy little laugh.
and said: weren't you the cat that
went up Into the garrett" And this
time Puss Junior laughed. Yes. he
replied, You have guessed right, my
little man. I am that cat"
And did you find your father?" asked
the little boy.
L did, replied Puss Junior. Il found
him in the castle Of my Lord OF Cara

HOME TRAINING
FOR GIRLS URGED
Mrs. Herbert HOOUer Sees
Need of Domestic In
StructiOn.

WASHINGTON. Feb Sew girls
nowadays receive much real domestic
| training" Mrs. Herbert Hoover, wife Of
the Secretary of Commerce, declares in a
statement issued by her as newly elected
president of the National Council of Girl
Scouts
I'm the domestic field the work Of the
Girl Scouts Is very important" says Mrs
Hoover. During the last fifty years, as
compared to earlier times. few girls have
received much real domestic training. To
be sure, girls from the country and the
village usually are obseryant and have
learned much from their mothers, but
generally speaking they have not been
taught in conscientious detail how their
homes are, or should be, run. They lack
knowledge Of the meehanism-the me-
chanics of homemakiag
The same generalization applies to
daughters Of very we'll do city parents.
and more particularly to girls living in
the small apartments of the highly con-
gested districts of the city.
Among the latter group many Of even
the essentials Of a home are often lack
ing, and consequently the girls have little
opportunity TO know what a real home
should be-"
Mrs Hoover makes appeal for 10000
women who are capable and intelligent
and willing to fit themselves to take
charge Of Girl Scout troops" More than
10000 girls are waiting to Join the
scouts she says, but cannot be taken in
because Of lack Of leaders.
Mrs. Hoover is the mother OF two sons
She was born in Iowa. but most of her
ne was spent in California. She and
her famous husband met and fell In love
with each other while both were students
IN the same class at the Leland Stanford
University She is a woman Of marked
personality and charm.

DOubJe-Deck Chin
Nay Be Prevented
With Little Care

The double chin. the frst warning Of
oncoming fat. is preventabIe, says the
February Delineator. There are plenty
of methods by which the loss Of beauty
and youthful contour can be averted.
To the double chin that is large and
hard, apply at night an astringent soap
with cold water. An astringent is a
binder, strengthening loose muscles and
stimulating the skin into healthful activ-
ity Let the soap dry into the skin; then
spread on a good reducing jelly. Pat
this in WITH n firm but never a hard
touch, using the backs of the hands al
ternately under the chin, and the fingers
upon the neck upward. The Jelly also
dries in the skin with the patting and
tones up the relaxed. muscles.
If your chin is inclined to fulness or
you fear it will take on unbecoming lines,
a good way to keep it in condition is to
make a flannel compress with very hot
water. Wiring this out and encircle the
throat and chin with it for one minute
This opens up the pores and stimulates
circulation. Then take half a lemon and
use it as a sponge-it is a mild astrin-
gent Wash off the lemon and pat in q
good cold cream with the backs Of the
hands. After few minutes wipe off the
chin and neck with ice.
