UNCLE RAYS CORNER
Fast Trip Across Asia

~ LID Asia has had attention dur
ing the past few months.
Jap Sapans sHss5 warfare esag1a against r. China ina
Western World TO turn their
eyes toward the Orient, wondering
what would happen next.
In days Of old, people IN the Orient
spoke about a magic carpet which
would take a person into the air and
far away The modern magic carpet
is the airplane; and I wish to invite
you to go with me on an airplane trip OF
fancy from one end OF Asia 10 the
other. The veteran aviator whose nick
name is Banty will be glad to serve
as our pilot.
We shall suppose that Banty has
piloted us safely over the Atlantic. and
across Europe and now we are landing
in Constantinople.
Constantinople is the largest city In
Turkey, and until a few years ago was
capital of the country. 1t still belongs
to the Turks. If we count people in
the suburbs, it has population OF
little more than 100000.
A great many Turks wear clothing
of much the same kind as ours. In
former times Turks had queer costumes.
Men wore round red caps made from
felt or other cloth. and their trousers
we're baggy Women wore very long
dresses; they seldom walked along a
public street, and when they did so
their faces were almost covered with
wells
The round cap Cor 'fez'D is still
worn by some Turks, but 1t Is not nearly
so common as before; and the same is
true Of wells and bagsy trousers. ,Tur-
kew has become q republic, and the
Turks have been busy copying the ways
of Western Europe. Bare-faced Turkish

still to be seen and the high
winds are whistling through the trees;
the soft sweet song of the bluebird
has given the word to all about him.
If the weather is not too bad this lovely
bird remains throughout the Winter.
If he Summers in the North he will
go South for the Winter and return to
his beloved home little ahead of his
mate.
WheuA the little lady appears she is
dressed in dull blue, washed with gray
and has paler breast than her spouse.
He is handsome indeed. His back
wings and tail are a bright blue; his
throat, breast and sides a cinnamon
red; underneath the feathers are white.
Both are about seven inches long;
about one inch longer than the Eng
lish Sparrow.
As a lover he is too matter of fact
They accept each other and set about
house hunting at once. AS builders
they do not excel and prefer using
home deserted by woodpecker or
bird house used by wren Sometimes
they peep into cavities in old fence
rails and use them. They seem to be
delighted when they find a home
already built and go about getting it in
readiness for the coming family. Should
a bird. especially sparrow. dispute
their right to occupy the home the blue
bird shows what a fearful temper he
has. Then if he desires the home Of
wrens he will he not hesitate to dispos-
ses them; bully in spite of his reputa-
ton, but he must look after his family

omission of thc steaming and the use
of liquefying cleansing cream in place
Of the WarmeI oil Gradually the little
blackheads will become fewer and if
the treatment is faithfully carried out,
they should disappear completely.
1t often happens that q complexion
of the type we are discussing appears
to be very dry on some spots and oily
on others. For instance, the cheeks
may be dry and the nose and forehead
oily. Such a condition naturally calls
for two different treatments. The
method described above is appropriate
for the whole face, but the oily parts
need additional care. They do not
need the tissue cream, but do need a
stronger astringent. After the face has
been washed, rinsed and blotted dry,
pat on the oily parts lotion made by
adding four drops of simple tincture OF
benzoin to half q cupful of water. Let
this dry on the skin.
Both excessive dryness and excessive
oiliness Of the skin may be caused by
internal disorders or the failure to obey
simple hygienic rules such as choosing
well balanced diet. having sufficient
sleep, keeping the digestive tract in Or
der and exercising outdoors every day.

Bicentennial Idea i'm Pa jamas
BY MARY MARSHALL.

The Colonial idea is carried out IN
the organdie fichu, trinity fitted oodlce
and short puffed sleeves as well as IN
the quaint figured print of the cotton
material used The divided skirt makes
the dress practical and comfortable 1or
busy or leisure hours indoors.
Except at pageants ana costume
dances no one really wants to. adopt
the fashions in vogue in the days OF
George and Martha Washington, but II
is rather amusing to adopt some OF the
small details of present-day fashion
that have been inspired as result OF
the Bicentennial Celebration.
The fictu idea lends Itself perfectly
well to a variety Of house dresses ana
even negligee and the qaint prints
that were used 200 years ago have been
reproduced in silks and cottons. The
tremendous interest in red, white and
blue color schemes this season is due
in measure to this patriotic revival
though as a matter of fact ladies OF
Martha Washington's day were no more
likely to adopt flag colors for their
dresses than any others.

The pores of the cry skin do
not secrete enough oil to soften the
blackheads and the skin itself is SO ten

Before the blackheads-Which are

must be softened by Steaming and the

To Chop Raisins.

When making cake which calls for
chopped raisins, first sprinkle them
with corn -four. You will find it more
satisfactory than wheat flour, since it
takes but a few minutes to chop them,
and each piece is distinct instead of
being in sticky, solid mass. as is
usually the case Use a tablespoonful
of -four to a cupful of raiS'nS.
