by the muscles of the face are those of laughing and chewing; therefore, the first exercise consists in throw ing the face into a state of vigorous laughter, hold the muscles in this po- sition and subject them to strong massage. Pursue even to laughing silently with the body muscles, which has the effect of forcing the breath out in jerks that puff out the cheeks.
 Encourage this to the utmost, as thereby the deep seated muscles of the cheeks and throat are put into action. Now play upon these, while they are thus vibrating, with forcible massage.
 Follow this with the chewing ex- ercise, which should resemble the ef- forts of a small boy at breaking open a walnut several sizes too large for his mouthj the lower jaw Is lowered to its utmost limit. thereby surpris- ing into activity the lazy muscles of the jaw; in an effort to close the teeth upon an imaginary walnut the tissues are tensed and "humped up to one side. While in this state they are vigorously kneaded and rubbed i; and the same process is pursued with the other side.
 At first this jaw breaking exercise will be decried but when the cheeks begin to fill out and the chin be- comes firmer. no coaxing to keep up the treatment is necessary.

 "Oh, yesl' Peter Pelican replied, there are lots and lots of fairies in the ocean, even if it is salt water, cause I have seen them lots and lots of times, but I never have seen a bush upon which grew nice candies and cookies like these!'
 T guess, maybe, it's because you never went away down to the bottom of the ocean, Peter Pelicanr Rag gedy Ann laughed, Tots of persons come into the deep, deep woods and do not know it is filled with wonder full magical things like ice cream mud puddles and cookie bushes and pie plants and everything."
 While the Raggedys and Peter Pelican were sitting eating the goodies from the Christmas tree bush, they heard a scrambling in the bush behind them. It was monkey! Yes, sir.
 And, when the monkey came out towards Raggedy Ann and Ragedy Andy and Peter Pelican, who should come running after the monkey but Humpylumpy, the brother of Crooke- lookie, the magician.

 Miss Gay K.-There are several methods of cleansing the face, all of which are beneficial, if the cortect one is selected, since each skin is a law unto itself. For instance, if yours is oily, you should not use a cleansing cream; in that case a lotion would be better. Some skins do splendidly on a pure vegetable soap and water, whereas others never require water. Oils, you know, are more cleansing than water. As a rule, every sktn responds well to meal mixtures; that is the reason l mention it so often. Meals are soft ening, cleansing, whitening and beautifyinG.

ExERCIsEs FOR THE FACE

A number of systems have been devised for building up the face, but they are all tedious; they require in- finite patience, constant practice and perseverance, and most of us are not gifted with the necessary amount of self discipline to pursue them suc- cessfully. However, no one will be- grudge ten minutes morning and night to a few simple exercises that will put new vigor into all muscles and so restore them to comparative youthfulness. It is well to experi- ment before a mirror, and when the knacl has been acquired the exer- cises can be carried out anywhere.
 Now it will be plain to anyone that the principal movements indulged in

BEAUTY AND HEALTH
By DR. LILIJAV wu1rNrv

NJ. A. D.-Almost anything heroic enough to soften and remove black. heads will irritate your skin. A splendid preliminary treatment is to cleanse the pores with complexion meal. It is made into a paste with the addition of warm water and rubbed deeply into the pores with the finger tips. Go over the face !n this manner several times, then rinse off with repeated tepid waters softeHed with toilet ammonia Last apply cold water. If you do this every night at bedtime you may re- quire no other treatment to clear your skin.
 B. I. A.-Judicious massage will often remove wrinkles that are just beginning to show. So- called mas sage, done without any regard as to the proper procedure, does more harm than good, and often causes wrinkles, sagging tissues and so on. It seems to me from what you tell me. and at your age, that expert cosmetic work is needed. You can not do this work yourself.

 Mrs. s.~H G-You do not give your scalp the care it requires by sny means. A monthly shampoo does not begin to fill the bill. Since your hair IS bobbed you can shampoo it daily without trouble. However your scalp condition demands at least three cleansings weekly with the following shampoo:
 Yolks of four eggs; spirit of soap N. F., 31z ounces; ammonia water, 3 drams; oil of lemon, 45 minims; oil of rose geranium. 15 minims; water, 27Aounces Beat the egg yolk mix thoroughly with the other in- gradients and strain.
 This will merely cleanse your scalp of dandruff; it will not cure it. In order that the following tonic cure the scalp disease and tone up the hair roots your scalp must be kept absolutely clean, therefore I advise daily shampooing. Here is a splen-

The village minister was motoring home one day after he had completed long round of visits, when he over took a girl plodding along the rough country road, carrying a huge bas- ket. He recognized her as servant who was employed by a farmer, an influential member of his flock. As he drew level with her he stopped the car, and jumping out, he asked her if he could give her a lift, as he was going past the farm for which she was bound.
 "Oh, thank you, sir!" she replied; and soon they had reached the farm gates.
 Thank you very muchw said the girl again, as the minister handed out her bashket.
