BEAUTY CHATS By Edna KENT FORBES

like real ocean water, but I do not
see why you should go to that bother
when you can buy the real sea salt so
cheaply.
One or two large handfuls go into
the tub. The way to test the bath, by
the way, is to taste it, then you can
judge whether you have it salty
enough or not. If you have it hot, SO
much the better if you are nervous.
Your skin will absorb more and your
health benefit by the salt your pores
take up. You will be soothed all
over. Incidentally. you know, you take
up a lot of the iodine which sea water
contains, and which guards against
goiter.
If you want stimulation only take
your sea water bath cool or cold. And
if You want a glowing reaction, exeT-
else vigorously until you are quite
hot, then take q quick, fairly cool sea-
water bath and rub down as hard as
you can with a coarse Turkish towel.
Miss D. Il. B.-There is no particu-
lar color in hair more beautiful than
another; the real beauty lies in the
vitality it shows, as it will then have
a natural gloss to it, regardless of
what color it may be.
Embarrassed Miss. = Extract the
coarse and dark hairs with tweezerS
whenever they show above the skin,
and bleach the rest with peroxide if
there is any trace of color to make
them conspicuous. You may have to
do this every few weeks. but i will
keep your skin cleared of the hair.

What Tomorrow Means to You
BY MARY BLAKE.
Capricorn.

The planetary aspects of tomorrow
are variable. In the morning they are
favorable, and indicate success for all
that is founded OH initiative. After
noon, they become quite adverse and
continue so until sunset, when they
revert to q more or less good Condl-
ton, indicative of benignity and calm.
If you have any new plan that YOU
are anxious to put into operation, the
morning IS at your disposal for this
purpose, as the signs point to success.
The afternoon should be spent, as far
as practicable, in only obligatory
work. The atmosphere that prevails
in the evening is suspicious for lovers,
and an engagement entered into will
only be productive of happiness.
A girl born tomorrow can be safely
expected to go through her infancy
with little or no sickness, although the
signs denote that in her teens she
will suffer either from a serious illness
or an accident. a boy, on the other
hand, will experience very few all
ments at any time, and the indications
are that he will develop along normal
lines and attain a vigorous majority.
Temperamentally, both boy and girl
will be VivaCiouS, always full of fun
and with an energy that can only be
classified as untiring. They will not
will have such affectionate natures
that much will be forgiven them.
If tomorrow is your birthday, the
only explanation of your present
mediocre position IS lack of self
reliance. If you only possessed more
confidence in yourself, your success
would be assured. You are also, at
times. disposed to prevaricate or ro-
nance. This tendency should be
II or
your friends and associates. All very
important business, or new enter
prises. should be begun by you in
March or November, as these are the
two months that indicate your great
est success, and Tuesdays and Satur-
days are the most favorable days.
You should cultivate n higher
opinion of your own capabilities and
personalities, and then, if you go
ahead with diligence, understanding
and truthfulneSS, you will be surprised
at what you will finally accomplish.

The FamilY-and Him.

How much do you care for your
family-your own immediate family,
| mean?
Are your mother and father and
brother just three people you grew up
with-or do they represent three hui
man beings whom you love and 10
whom you owe loyalty and respect
Do you really like to spend eve
nings at home with thcnl-Or are
those occasions just sort Of grim du-
ties that must be got through with?
Ask yourself these questions Then
if you find that your affection for the
family is real and lasting and impor-
tant, look over the man you've select
ed to be your life partner.
How about him? Does he share your
love for your parents? Is he honestly
keen about them or is he just throw
ing a line to get in good with the in
laws.
Don't fall for any bluff. Don't think
that just because he brings mother a
box of candy now and then-and raves
about baby sisters looks-he is whole
heartedly and genuinely fond OF your
family
Just at present, while he still must
work to keep on your good books, he
may feel q certain glow Of friendship
for the members Of your family-sim-
y q
But when he's tired of telling you
what knockout you are, and has be
gun suggesting delicately that there
are ways in which you might improve
yourself-Will he still think brother

dad just the finest old boy in the
world?
While you're madly in love, it
doesn't seem particularly important 10
hot J. IA f.,I- -,
tcrest in the family circle as you do.
But if you're very dear TO your father
and mother-if their happiness de
ponds on yOu-you won't want to hurt
them after your marriage by your
continual absence and neglect. And
yOu'u have pretty tough time not
neglecting them, if friend husband
isn't interested in making them happy
too.

will look around here first Hello,
Did / see something move
Shadow stopped abruptly and sat
up. You know he does sit UP in just
the same way that Peter Rabbit does.
He sat up that he might look around
better. He was just in time 10 see
something vanish behind the trunk of
a tree. Instantly Shadow bounded TO-
ward that tree. AS he did so he saw
a tiny dark form scamper across the
snow toward an old stump. He got
only a glimpse of it. II wonder f
that was a young Mouse" thought he
and bounded after it,
BY the time he reached the old
stump no one was to be seen. Shadow
started around the old stump Half
way around he came face to face with
who do you think? It was Teeny
Weeny the Shrew. Now had it been
anybody but Teeny Weeny Shadow
wouldn't have hesitated a second. lie
would have sprung quicker than you
could catch your breath. But Teeny
Weeny was different. Shadow could
think of many things that he would
like better for breakfast than Teeny
Weeny. You see, Teeny Weeny is in
a small way like Jimmy Skunk; he
carries with him a very disa greeabIe
perfume. 1t IS apt to spoil the appe-
tite Of even very hungry person. So
Shadow hesitated.
Now Teeny Weefly didn't see
Shadow. Even had Shadow been
dressed in brown instead of pure white
Teeny Weeny wouldn't have seen him.
His eyes We're not good enough for
that. But his ears or his nose or
perhaps both together, told him Of
Shadow 81 presence as quickly as
Shadows eyes had told him of Teenv
Weeny'S presence. Teeny Weeny
didn't hesitate. He didn't hesitate the
tiniest part of a second. He was
there, and then he wasn't there. Had
you been watching him it would have
seemed to you as if he had vanished
by magic. But to Shadow the Weasel
there was no magic in that disappear
ance. Shadows eyes became red.
With just the fainteSt of snarls he
Sprang- But he was too late; there
was no Teeny Weeny there There
was only a little hole in the crust of
snow-a little hole leading down under
that old stump. Slim as Shadow is,
that hole was too small for him.
"I didn't want Shrew for breakfast,
anyway" muttered Shadow. and
started on.
