never be omitted Every day the hair
should be thoroughly brushed and
given a, sun-and.air bath. 1t Is a mis-
take to give up brushing for fear of
losing more hair. The hairs that are
dead and ready to fall out need to be
removed so that new ones may take
their places. The following hair tonic
may be applied to the scalp three
times a week: Two ounces cologne,
one-half ounce castor OIL 20 drops
tincture Of capsicum, three ounces
bay rum. If the scalp Is unusually
dry an oily scalp food should be used
in place of the above tonic. Here Is a
simple recipe: Three drains lanoilin.

CHAPTER XXI.
Breakfast Conversation.

"Well, of course, ] think she's
wonderful he said, trying to seem
enthusiastic. AS a matter of fact, he
did think Irene was wonderful, but he
wasn't exactly romantic about her.
Forty wasn't so conducive to romance
as twenty, although there were times
when he felt the lack of it in his life
and was sorry he had never expert
enced it.
There must be something in it.
Poets raved about it, fiction writer's
fairly wallowed in it. And yet Mark
had never known 1t for what it was.
He had never had his heart leap in his
breast, his pulses had never been
stirred unduly. He had never expert
enced a terrible longing for another
person. And yet he loved poetry and
there were lines that filled him with a
longing that sometimes made him al
most ashamed.
In his very practical moments he
told himself that there was nothing in
1t. Far better to pick out a woman
who had a sense Of humor and appre-
ciated the things you yourself liked.
And yet, as he brought his romance
into the light of day, and Jessica' s
misty gray eyes lighted up, it seemed
somehow poor little romance OF
exactly what he wanted to do. But
Jessica was still fioundering about,
and worse still was about to make a
mess of her life.
"rs she young?" Jessica asked
eagerly. -
"Wen, she's not as old as am. /
think you'd like her. OF course you'll
meet her before long. AS matter of
fact haven't proposed to her as yet"
And suppose you think she's wait
ing like a nice ripe plum, ready to drop
into your mouth when you get ready
to ask her the fatal question"
Mark bit into a hot popover. and
then said pleadingly:
Now, Bunny, is that kind?"
She eyed him narrowly.
you don't call me Jessica any more,
do you?"
He looked up in pretended astonish.
ment.
Il thought you preferred Bunny. I
strive to please"
She caught herself up Immediately.
"Oh. do prefer it. But as you were
saying, you think I'd like herr"
"Yes, I'm sure of 1t. She isn't very
far past 80, and she's good looking and
tolerant. She isn't the type to get
shocked. Yes, I'm sure you'd like her.
Perhaps you'd send her an invitation
to your wedding. I'll have all the de-
tails settled before then, so she'll
really be one of the family
Jessica looked up quickly, saw that
he was quite serious, and considered
this for a moment.
Then she said very quietly.
you don't sound bit crazy about
her. Are you sure you're in love?"
quite sure"
How do you know?'
'Well I've been thinking of asking
her to marry me for a long time, and
the idea hasn't palled on me. I'm still
for it."
But that's no sign"
'What do you mean?"
well, doesn't she thrill you, aren't
you excited about her2"

too small for Chatterer to get
through. Also, that the entrance was
well hidden.
Now, there isn't lazy bone in
Whitefoot the Woodmouse when there
is any reason for him to keep busy
He promptly went to work with all
his might, carrying those seeds down
into that hollow and storing them
away. Once in a while he would stop
and rest for minute or two. Their
he would go to work again. BY the.
time jolly round Mr.. Sun started his
daily climb up in the blue, blue sky,
there wasn't a pine seed left in the
old storeroom in that stump. No, sir,
not one seed was left. They were all
stored away in that hollow root.
Whitefoot was tired. but he was very
happy, also. He washed his face and
hands, for Whitefoot is very neat.
You know, his hands are white and
he has to wash them often to keep
them clean. Then he left the old
stump and skipped across the snow

log buried under the snow Down

take a nap.
After he had had good nap, White

snow-covered hemlock branch where
he couldn't be seen, but where he
could peep out and watch that old
stump. He hadn't been there long
when he saw Chatterer the Red SPUR

making no noise. Whitefoot grinned.
He knew that Chatterer was planning
to take him by surprise If he should
be in that old stump. He watched
Chatterer pop in.
In Just about one-half a minute
Chatterer was making noise enough
to make up for all his silence. My,
my, my, my. how his tongue was
flying! Whitefoot's eyes twinkled.
He knew that Chatterer had discov.

appeared on the top of the old stump
He was so angry that he fairly
danced up and down. He jerked his
tail until Whitefoot's own tail ached
in sympathy: and all the time his
tongue was flying IS he called White.

could think of. Chatterer was having
tantrum and it wasn't getting him
anything.
