which wears it off. I'm afraid this
would irritate sensitive skins. so I
would recommend bleaching it with
either full-strength peroxide or half
and -nalf mixture of peroxide and am
monia. This is strong enough to dis
courage the growth of fuzz. If it is
so strong that it irritates the skin,
use it only once or twice a week and
rub the skin nightly with cleansing
cream, which cannot possibly grow
hair.
Jennie j. G.-1f you insist upon
dyeing your hair. you should go to
professional, as home dyeing is rarely
successful. Your friends are correct
in saying there is often the risk that
chemicals in the dyes will dry out the
natural oils and bring about scalp
troubles. This could even amount to
injury to the roots of the hair so there
would be no recovery. However, you
may have unusually fine vitality and
be able to stand the test, at least for
the experiment, although it is not at
all advisable.

Unwanted Hairs.

There are several ways of removing
superf1uous hairs from the face. One.
of course. is by going to an electric
needle specialist and having them
killed. either singly by the ne-needle
in small shops) or 10 or SO at a time
by the multiple needle process. This
is not only quicker but better. The
first way, about Is or 25 per cent of
the hairs come back and have to be
removed a second time; the other way
only about 10 per cent return. And
there is no danger OF marking the
skin IL the work is done by a skilled
operator, because the needles are SO
very fine. Neither is the process
painful.
The home treatment is to use
tweezers. But first touch the spot
where the hair grows out with a bit
of cotton wet with peroxide of hydro
gen, then give the hair a quick jerk
in the same direction 1t grows (hairs
seem to grow out sideways sometimes
rather than straight out from the
skim, then once more touch the place
with peroxide. This serve a double
purpose-it makes the spot antiseptic,
SO no germ can lodge in the half.

grew. and if there is another hair
terminating in that follicle it comes
in much lighter in color.

can be pulled out with tweezers, or it
can be rubbed with a pumice stone

Your Baby and Mine
by MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Mrs. q. S. writes: My baby weigh.
ed 912 pounds at birth and now, at
two months, weighs 12 pounds and 2
ounces. Dou you think he has made
good gain? He nurses every four
hours for 10 minutes at both breasts.
After about 10 minutes Of nursing he
seems to be in distress. He strains
and gets red In the face and cries out
as If in pain. Do you know what
causes that? He doesn't sleep much.
He takes one good nap during the day
and then doesn't go to sleep until II
at night"
Answer.
Since the baby has made a gain
OF ounces or more for eight weeks
there seems no reason to think he
isn't getting enough to eat. Why not
cut down the nursing to five minutes

long ways past the days when

old baby, weighing only 16 pounds
is at least 3 pounds under
weight for his age; and. according to
her height of 90 inches, she should

tall. The five ounces of milk five
times daily is not sufficient for her
needs now, and the best way to in
crease her weight is by a judicious
increase in the amount of milk given
daily, some more sugar in the for

What Tomorrow Means to You
BY ROBERT CULLEN.
BY MARY BLAKE.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are
variable. In the morning they are
negative and register nothing distnc-
tive. In the afternoon they are ad-
verse, while after sunset they undergo
a very sudden change and become de-
cidedly favorable, accompanied by
vibrations both stimulating and en-
couraging. During the day only rou-
| tine duties should engage your atteH-
ton. and you should center all your
efforts on the avoidance of impulSive
speech or actions. In the evening you
can safely surrender yourself to the
emotions that YOU will experience. as
only happiness can result Do not
hesitate to manifest your love and af-
lection for the one Of your choice.
A boy born tomorrow will be a
stranger to all sickness during infancy
and this happy condition will be main
tained later on unless accident inter
venes A girl will not he quite so for.
tunate She will be weak and ailing a
a baby and will not completely out
grow her physical disabilities until
just prior to the attainment of woman
hood. In. disposition both boy and girl
will be frank and abOveboard. Their
thirst for all sorts of knowledge will
be abnormal and at times disconcert-
ing to their elders. They promise to
natures will be very affectionate.
If tomorrow is your birthday you are
destined to be leader, If you know
how to take full advantage of your
opportunities. Above all things on this
earth you cherish your integrity and
honor and are careful and conscien-
tious in all that you do. Your con-
science, which is always on the job,
is your constant mentor.
On the whole, the signs denote that
YOU should be a very delightful sort
of person, with excellent taste, fond
of art and the finer things of life. and
your Iove-which is wholehearted and
enduring-is a treasure worth having.
You exercise at all times remarkable
self-control and never Intentionally do
or say anything to hurt another's
sensibilities. In your just anger, how
ever, you are Scathing.

Henry Adams, educator and historian

The State of Montana contains
$4,000 square miles in area, be-
ing the third State in the Union
in size.
Agriculture took no part in the
drafting Of its constitution, as
western Montana being first set
tied by miners, they governed the
territory while eastern Montana
was a bowling wilderness. and
the admission of the State found
them drafting its Constitution
and exempting the mines from
taxation while Agriculture and
the city property had to bear the
tax burden.
They had no trouble in the
Adoption of that Constitution,
nor yet in the location of its In
stitutiOns which they scattered
and divided among the mining
politicians in the mountain ham
lets a prize award, leaving co.
900 square miles without an In
stitutiOn. Some prisoners have to
be transported $50 miles to the
State prison. Our daughters
graduating from Sheridan COun-
~ high schools, travel 72O miles
to the State Normal school. The
result is that our youth are in
structed by Minnesota and Wis
cOnsin teachers. Our University
is distant 900 miles, hence Min

we enjoy a dual government

And all the State employees are
appointed from the Mountain dis

Some 80 years ago, owing to
the high cost of transportation,

to erect an eastern State prison

the walls were up, for some

third made it five miles below the
Corconjenez, a narrow neck of land

zie was burned so years ago. The
discovery Of the location recently

whose only previous training had

1t is an interesting story, for the

cOmmemoration program in connec-
ton with the visit July 18th Of spe-

dedicating tour.

used to stand somewhere" Just above
the mouth Of the Marias River, but
there never before seemed to be any
particular reason to locate the spot
definitely. However, when the TT.

''big doings" on the occasion of the
coming of distinguished body of ma.
tional historians, the members be-
gan scratching their heads and ask
ing themselves, ''just where it was. y
