dawned on him.
Title had come from India
where she had worked in the
forest carrying big trees for n
lumberman and for her to return
to the lumler business was just
as. easy as eating q load Of hay.
You know those Indian elephants
can be trained TO do the work Of
a dozen men. 1t was lucky she
was an Indian elephant instead of
an African one, because the Afri-
can elephants are rarely trained.
Put her to work. / said to
Joe.
In a jiffy Tillie was on the job
out in the lumber sheds, lifting
the long boards and carrying
them to the freight cars, which
were on the siding. AS neatly
and sensibly as II she had had a
human brain in her head instead
Of an elephants brain, she piled
the lumber ON the fiat freight
cars.
Joe alm.Ist jumped for joy
while he directed Titles keeper
as to the loading of the cargo,
and when the engine backed up
and he saw his orders ready to
pull out I think he would have
kissed Title X he could have
reached her face.
The whsle blew and off start

YOUR BEAUTY

that is cleansing to the skin and
which also supplies it with pure

ticle of dust and every black
head to the surface. Then with
absorbent cotton remove the dirt
and moisture.
Your face is now ready for
its cold cream bath. Pat the
cream in gently but firmly with
your fingertips until your skin
is well saturated. Let it remain
fifteen or twenty minutes, then
remove the superfluity with more
absorbent cotton or with tissue

and may be thrown away after

Needless to say. your neck and
ears should be included in this
beauty treatment. Also. YOUR
hair should be protected from
moisture and oil by means of a
light towel.
Steaming the face should not
take place oftener than once a
week. The other nights. let the
vapor from your hot bath loosen
the dirt and bring it to the sur
face, later to be removed with
cold cream.
