What TodayMeans to You
Virgo.
By MARY BLAKE.


The early morning hours are
fraught with adverse aspects, but.
later on, favorable conditions for
business eliminate. They. however,
also indicate carelessness and ex-
travagance, and, unless you watch
your step" differences and quarrels
with the opposite sex. II poise and
equilibrium are maintained, these be-
setting difficulties will be avoided.
A child born today will be very
healthy in early childhood, but will
be exposed to a serious sickness dur
ing the adolescent stage. It's char
acter will be strong, and its DISPOSE
ton both attractive and bright. It
will also develop a high degree of
mentality and will never need to be
urged to study.
If today is your birthday. you are
very intolerant of new ideas and
rather pride yourself on your ultra
conservatism. This is sometimes an
other name for ignorance and obsti.
macy.
Nearly every enlargement of the
domain of knowledge which has made
US better acquainted with the
heavens, with the earth and with our
selves, has been established by the
energy, tho devotion. the self-sacri-
fee and the courage OF tho great
Sp1xIIS OI past L1"cSp OppOSSO anu re-
viled by their contemporaries.
The unjust intolerance of the past,
as revealed historically, should per-
suade you to be forbearant toward
those who differ from you, provided
they observe patiently, think hon.
estly and give expression to their
convictions freely and truthfully.
You also lack energy, the central
element of which is will, and which
produces the miracles of enthusia SIN
in all ages. Everywhere it is the
handspring Of what Is called force Of
character and the sustaining power
Of all great action.
Energy Of temperament, with .
moderate degree of wisdom. will
carry you further than any amount
of intellect without It.
Well known persons born on this
date are: John I. Blair. dnancier;
Albert Brisbane. reformer; John B.
Cough, temperance lecturer; Willard
Glazier, explorer and author; Melville
E. Stone. journalist; Maud Powell,
violinist.

BEAUTY CHATS
Oily Complexion.

A doctor tells me that IL the skin
10 very oily an excellent treatment is
to rub 1t every morning and evening
with an alkaline mixture. This Is made
by putting one teaspoonful of bicar-
Donate of soda into a teacupful of hot
boiled water. 1t should be used hot,
patted all over the face and allowed
to dry on. Or, If making it each time
is too much bother. 10 drops of am
monia in the same amount of cold
water win do almost as we'll.
A very oily skin covered with black
heads, whiteheads and such unpleas-
ant blemishes is benefited by using
the following mixture: B. naphtha-
gram; spirits OF lavender, 10 grams /;
green soap, 20 grams: alcohol 60 per
cent?, 70 grams. This mixture can be
made pleasant to smell by adding a
few drops Of any perfume.
Tincture Of green soap, being very
strong and very drying, is used in
most cases of blackheads and greasy
compilations. 1t irritates some sensi-
tive skins, however. In such a case,
try starch. Keep a small box of plain
laundry starch in the bathroom, melt
a lump with enough cold water to
form q paste and rub this on the skin

Nutrition NUGGETS.

We are accustomed to think Of leafy
vegetables as protective foods, but
we do not always realize that they
vary in food value. The thick leaves
that act as store houses are valuable,
but the thinner ones possess more of
the special quality which makes leafy
vegetables particularly desirab BILE.
The dried leaf Of one of the edible
plants contains several times as much
mineral ash as the seed of the same
plant. This means that the leaf
gives US lime, phosphorus and other
valuable mineral salts.
The building material contained in
Indian corn is slightly less valuable
from the point of view of nutrition
however, practically the same guam
tity as wheat of the vitamin which
helps to prevent scurvy.
The bodybuilding material contain
ed in wheat is almost as efficient in
promoting growth as that contained
in eggs and milk. In other words,
tissue-forming elements in wheat are
more satisfactory than in any other
grain. Wheat is very low in lime
and several other elements, which ex-
plains the necessity for combining it
with other foods to make well
rounded mixed diet.
Those who have studied geograph-
ical conditions in relation to the
raising Of food tell US that Nature is
wonderfully wise in this respect. For
example. dates and figs are very con-
centrated foods and are the staple
providers Of nutritive material of
those who live in dry regions where
fresh water is scarce. The fact that
they are not bulky means that they
can easily be transported over the
long distances which so many of deS-
ert people have to travel.

n fan,

looking for blueberries. And two or
three times Reddy had met him very
unexpectedly. SO Reddy was filed
with resentment.
Buster belongs in the Green For
est and not up here" mumbled Reddy
He has no right to come UP here In
the Old Pasture. Why doesn't he stay
where he belongs" Reddy quite
overlooked the fact that he himself
visited the Green Forest, which was
Busters home, whenever he chose.
Day by day Reddy grew more re-
sentful. Every time he saw Buster
Bear his anger became greater. And
there wasn't the least cause for it
No, sir; there wasn't the least cause
Buster wasn't interfering with Reddy
Buster wasn't getting food that Reddy
needed or wanted. He wasn't inter
fering with Reddy's Hunting. He
hardly gave Reddy so much as a
glance when they happened to meet
Perhaps this was one reason why
after each meeting Reddy became
more resentful. 1t got SO that he
thought of little else but Buster Bear
and how he would like to drive Bus
ter out of the Old Pasture.
Reddy began to spend most of his
time spying on Buster and hoping
that something would happen to drive
Buster out of the Old Pasture. He
saw the meeting between Buster and
Farmer Browns boy. That meeting
was great disappointment to Reddy
Fox. 1t made him more resentful
than ever. He had expected to see
Buster take to his heels and make for
the Green Forest. You see, Reddy re-
membered that this is what happened
when Buster was younger and had
met Farmer Browns boy.
But Buster hadn't taken to his
heels. To be sure, he had moved away
from where Farmer Browns boy was
but he had done it in a very dignified
way and he hadn't left the Old Pas
ture. He had simply kept out OF
sight and waited for Farmer Browns
boy to leave. Reddy had ground his
teeth in disappointment and anger.
After this Reddy spent most of his
time trying to think of some way OF
frightening or driving Buster Bear
out of the Old Pasture But all his

Reddy Is Resentful.
Resentment leads to naught but i'll.
II once allowed your heart to ill.
old MOTHER NATURE.

Resentment" looks like a big
word. but 1t looks bigger than it
really is. 1t means a feeling of i'll
will. q. feeling Of anger toward others
for something they may have done.
Resentment filled the heart Of Reddy
Fox. There was no real cause for II,
but he felt 1t fill his heart just the
same. 1t was because Buster Bear
was visiting the Old Pasture every
day.
You know, Reddy had his home in
the Old Pasture. You know, Busters
home was in the Green Forest. Reddy
doesn't like Buster Bear. He is afraid
of Buster, and people who are afraid
OF others never like them. There was
no real reason for Reddy to be afraid,
for he could always keep out of Bus
ter's way. He always took care to do
this when he visited the Green For
est. But now Buster was spending a
great deal CT time in the Old Pasture

Make bags of cheesecloth in
which to put small pieces Of
soap. Oatmeal added to the

In boiling or roasting meat
that is not tender, treat in this
simple manner: Mix two table
spoons of oil and one table,
spoon Of vinegar. Brush this
over the meat and let the meat
stand for half an hour before
cooking it.
Salt moistened with vinegar
will remove burnt marks from
enameled saucepans and dishes.
Don't forget that they should
-:be soaked in cold water for q
few hours first to loosen tho
stains.
Vegetable refuse, such Is po-
