BEAUTIFY THE NECK AND BUST.
Copyright. 1878 by NEA Service 4,

One of the important things to do
in order to have beautiful neck is
to brethe deeply and hold the shoulder
blades in place.
If you are very thin, and round
shouldered, wear shoulder brace or,
better, cultivate the habit of correct
posture and deep breathing to
strengthen the muscles and you will
not need to hold them in place arti-
ficially.
Massage, with olive oil, which is
very good for the hollows around the
neck and the bust. .,..
Do not massage the bust at all
heavily, as this is very delicate part
Of the body and particular attention
should be paid to this, so that the
glands are not injured in any manner.
Light massage is very beneficial.
Cocoa butter is also very good.
Massage night and morning, with

"Muriel. why don't you get some

You should be grateful to me for
caring nothing for such things and
saving your money" she snapped
acidly, her nerves ut the breaking
point. 1t was the second day after
their return. Bruce had kept his
promise and played the day before.
He had fingered afterward to talk
house" to a man he met on the links
and consequently had been late for
dinner. Muricl. showing traces of
weeping. had been unusually acrid in
her remarks.
Il am earning enough now so you
can have sport toys. Ann Mason

plays a rafting good game for

"Does she?"
"Yes and a good game of tennis,
too! Why can't You be like her,
Muriel, and tag about with a fellow

your wife, your place is with me.
Don't go to the links this afternoon.
Come home and stay with me. l
can't bear it when you stay away TO

when you claim business keeps you.
But TO leave me for golf - it isn't
fair"
al gave the boys my word I'd play.
You said you were going to remain
at home. Because you changed your
mind is no reason / should break my
word. Our seances at home aren't
very merry. You never went any
company or to 60 anywhere unless
we go alb alone. But I'm not going
on living like that. The fellows all
wonder what's the matter with US

Bruce seldom spoke GROSSLY and sci

was red. his eyes blazed.

Il didn't mean to say that. but ]
meant it just the same. We might a,
we'll come TO a showdown: Muriel
You've gone dippy in respect TO Ger
tain things. Were married and have
all our lives TO spend together. We
can afford to have little fun while
We are young. We should have
friends and enjoy them"
"Oh. don't talk any more. My head
aches fearfully." With a little moan
she put her hand to her head.
Too bad, Muricl. l got into a
bcastly temper, didn't l." He laughed
grimly. III call Martha to look
after YOU"
Il don't want Martha. You come
up with me and rub my head. 1t al
ways helps me when you do it"
Il can't. Muriel. Must be off to
the links. I'm sorry. old girl, if l was
cross just now, but for goodness sake
do brace up and try to get little joy
out of life-and let me have a little.
Don't dampenN everything for me. >
Martha" he called, come and
look after Mrs. Conway. :" A hasty
kiss and he was off, Muriel vainly
protesting still.
But Bruce did not really enjoy him
self, although the day was perfect
and he was in good form. All the
time running through his head was a
question:
rs there anything I can do? Can
l stand it much longer: Ought l to
give up everything and make a her
nit of myself because she loves me?
What in blazes ails us anyway? Why
can't we be happy and jolly like
Tom and Ann?
He hurried home from the course
and had time for a bath before
Martha rang the bell.
What would you like to do to-
night" he asked Muriel, his anger
Of the morning forgotten.
Stay right here with YOU"
But it is a lovely night. Let's take
a walk. 1t will do you good after
being in the house all day"

He must be gentle with her. She had
been suffering all day with her head.

troll himself not give way 70 his tenn

Come along, sis, we'll 90 out by
the lake. There's a nice bench there
and We can rest a while before we

losing his temper, he tucked her hand
into his arm and drew her closely 10
