BEAUTY CHATS
Excessive Perspiration.

A great many women who have been
suffering from excessive perspiration
all the summer are writing to ask me
why the same condition exists al
though cold weather has started.
Excessive perspiration is due often
to nervousness. sometimes to poor
health and most frequently to local
unhealthiness OF the skin. l am al
most afraid to add that it is often due
to- insufficient bathing. for / still re-
member an indignant answer I once
received In reply to letter suggest
ing that as a reason. Nevertheless it
is true that when the pores of the
skin are not kept free through fire.
quent bathing an unhealthy condition
results with consequent excessive or
odorous perspiration.
Most people perspire most freely in
the armpitS. A very warm bath and
a free lather of soap once a day will
probably cure this condition in a
weeks time. Generous use of plain
unscented talcum powder will help
because it will keep the skin cool
Shaving under the arm pits or using
q depilatory will also help because 1t

Danny Meadow Mouse was leading

carried up high in the blue, blue sky
in a great man-bird. as he and all the
other little people called an airplane.
Danny had learned TO enjoy flying.
True, he was a prisoner, but he didn't
mind this very much. He sometimes
did wish that his cage was big
enough for him to run in. But he
never suffered for lack of food, and
he was always safe. He had grown
to be quite fond of the man who flew
that man-bird.
