Answer-G) 1t is natural for peo-
pie to have a fine down of hair all over
face and body with the exception of
the soles of the feet and the palms of
the hands. Usually these hairs are SO
short and light in color that they pass
unnoticed except on arms ard legs
where they are likely to be longer and
darker These hairs on the limbs may
be bleached or else removed from time
to time with depilatory. There is at
present no safe and practical way to
clear large areas of the skin of hair
permanently. The facial hairs may be
bleached also or if they are really un-
slightly the worst ones may be removed
permanently bv electrolysiS. I am as
Stunning thst the growth of hairs you
have is not abnormal. If the growth
is much more conspicuous than normal,
it may be due to some disturbance in
the internal secretions Of your body, in
which case you should consult a ply
sician about it. 90 have a leaflet
describing reducing exercises for the
hips that shall be glad to mail you if
you will write for it and inclose
stamped self addressed envelope with
your request. (3) Height is largely a
matter of heredity, but you can realize
the fullest measure of physical develop
ment possible to your type by keeping
yourself strong and healthy. Build up
your weight to the correct amount for
age and height. Eat sufficient nourish-
ing food, exercise daily and maintain
correct posture. Be sure to have
enough sleep in bed at night Do
stretching exercises particularly.

THAT BODY OF YOURS
BY JAMES w. BARTON, M. d.

weight too rapidly frequently has a
great deal of abdominal distress-pain
in back and in abdomen. Through this
loss of fat. the abdominal organs
kidneys, stomach and intestines-actu-
ally drop a number of inches from
their normal positions.
Fat is found practically everywhere,
filling in chinkS in the body-in between
the muscles, about tendons, joints and
so forth. In other words, then, every
one of us needs certain amount of
fat covering the surface of the body,
and in and about the various organs
and tissues; SO if you are of normal
weight, don't take chances on your
health by trying to reduce your weight.
An overweight person can reduce
safely. because his fat on the surface
is too thick; it is holding heat in the
body too we'll, and the fat elsewhere
in the body may be interfering with
the proper working of organs and
tissues.
Be thankful, then, that you are of
normal weight, that you can enjoy all
kinds of food Do not have to cut
down in amount or on particular foods;
do not have to take strenuous exercise
or Turkish baths. Don't try to attain

when We are inspired to cut down as
far as possible the time spent in the
kitchen, may introduce some new
staples to our shelves for all-the-year-
round use.
This shortcut method includes the
use of all the fruits in the market, the
salad vegetables and other vegetables
which can be quickly prepared and
cooked. 1t means the use of desserts
such as ice cream. which can be bought
ready to use and of cookies, cakes and
pies from the good bakery which is
almost certain to be found somewhere
nearby. For these products it may
mean the expenditure of more money
than when these same things are made
at home, because labor is costly item
in their preparation.
The first thing in starting a plan of
this sort is to look over the stocks at
the grocery. Perhaps you have not
realized that half or a whole ham and
whole chicken could be bought canned
and ready for reheating or for serving
cold. The latter, by the way, can be
served in a mold of jelly If it is chilled
in the refrigerator before the can is
opened. 1t Is most attractive served
in the center of a large platter and
surrounded by mounds Of two or three
cooked vegetables and sliced tomatoes.
Lettuce or watercreSS can be used as
a garnish and French dressing mayon-
naise can be passed.
Other cold meats out Of the can,
such as corned beef and tongue, can
be made unusual by serving with them
tartar sauce. Salmon or crab meat
can be easily made into a jellied mold
and served with mayonnaise or in
large pieces combined with celery and
vegetables With these fish salads sliced
cold ham is very appetizing.
Chops, steaks, sliced ham and fish
fillets can all be cooked quickly under
the broiler or in a heavy frying pan.

A famous hat which is worn by
the 70 ecclesiastical princes of

the name of the cardinal bird,
whose colors it is supposed to match.
Red is the favorite color of the hum
ming birds, and 50, when our lovely red
flowers begin to bloom, the little tropical
Jewels begin to arrive. Baby humming
birds eat insects, SO We know that the
nectar Slippers are drinking excessively
for their own pleasure.
With Squeals of delight, the birds
gather about the cardinal hostess. and

before them, they Squawk in no un-

The cardinal flower has Eef own
clever plan, handed down for years un-
tod, CT distributing her pollen. Watch
the humming bird as she goes first to
the newly opened cup and later to the
older flower. Is the nectar more sweet
The flowers on the tip are the last to
open. The hummng bird, with his
brilliant, greenish black back, /: seen
lowering close to the mouth of the
flower, his needle-like beak buried deep
into the nectar. There are wee
feathers on his beak, and they are in
just the right position to be caught in
the pollen.
The new flower, when ready for her
caller, has her stamens joined together
to form a tube. Pollen grows at their
tips. AS the pistil with its seed house
grew, it pushed the pollen out before
the stigmas had become sticky. The
little tippler comes along for his drink,
the pollen is brushed into his feathers,
and he departs. The pistil now be-
comes sticky, and she awaits the coming
of the next thirsty visitor who will have
pollen frcm newly opened flower on
his feathers and so in this way the
cardinal flower is assured Of healthy
seeds.
These lovely flowers grow easily from
