explained Honker. They were urging
us to come join them. but somehow
I was suspicious of them. They were
too anxious to have us join them. We
did swing down lower for a better
look, and 1 didn't like the looks of
things. So led the flock so as to pass

"What?" asked Mr.. Quack eagerly.
Zone Of these geese down there took
was fresh and we were tired, so he soon
caught up with us and then he tried
to get us to follow him back there
and join the others on the water. Yes,
sir, that is what he did," said Honker.
And did you?" asked Mr.. Quack.
1--WE did not" declared Honker
promptly. Some of the flock wanted
to but I as their leader refused to
allow them to. After a while that
traitor left us and returned to his
friends. There was another flock some
distance behind us and when they
came along that traitor joined them
and succeeded in leading them back
with him"
And then what happened?" cried
Mr. Quack.

Dry Hands and Brittle Mails
BY LOIS LEEDS.

EAR MISS LEEDS-I am sure
that you can help me with
my beauty problems as you
- have helped so many others.
My hands are my worst prob
lem; the skin is dry and my nails are
very brittle. I try to keep the nails
short, but still they split and break.
Can you tell me how to get them in
good shape? Thanks for your helpful
hints. MISS A. S. D.
AnsWer-Dry skin and brittle fin
gernails are often an indication that
ones general health is not up to par.
Sometimes underweight or overweight
and an insufficient amount of salads,
green vegetables and raw fruits will
tend to make the skin appear dry and
wrinkled Milk, cheese, butter, fats,
such as olive oil and fresh fruit juices
should be included in the daily diet.
If you have your hands in water
several times during the day, make
sure you dry them thoroughly after
ward and apply little hand lotion
and massage them for second or two.
At bedtime coat them with a good
oily massage cream, after cleansing
them thoroughly with soap and water
and rinsing well. Equal parts of
glycerin, rosewater and witch hazel,
plus few drops of lemon juice, make
an excellent skin lotion for the hands.
Or you may use commercial hand
lotion obtainable at any cosmetic
counter, beauty salon or drug store.
Soak the fingernails in warm olive oil
or cold cream at bedtime, for several
minutes, and massage the dry, rough
skin with the oil or cream. Slip on
a pair of cotton gloves to keep the
cream or oil on the skin overnight.
This simple treatment will help to
make the skin smooth and youthful
looking. LOIS LEEDS.

"HE smart effect we seek when
we wear our Winter suits is
produced largely by the blouses.
For upon them depends the
final accent which suits need
to subdue them properly for morning,
or to glamorize them for occasions in
the afternoon.
The two patterns shown in the
sketch are a good choice for the
woman who has not an extensive
wardrobe. Both are simple to cut,
fit and sew. For limited eXpendi-
ture you can bring variety into your
costumes. The top blouse may be
velvet, lame, lace. silk crepe, novelty
cotton or satin. The type is similar to
the jabot models which we depended
upon for frequent changes more than
a decade ago. The style has always
been interesting and becoming, SO We
welcome its revival. 1t is cut as an
overblouse, but may also be worn as
a tuck-in-either way is popular.
The other little blouse with the
discreet collar, and buttons closing
the front, is an adaptation of Lanvin'S
great blouse success which was made
in silver lame, and sold at fabulous
price. 1t is ideal for dressing up the
suit. Lame is the most expensive
choice, and, of course, the most lovely

Delayed by last-minute Repub-

Districts new insurance code will
be placed before the House late

successful.

came uproarious over the process
ing amendment Majority Floor
Leader Byrns moved to recess
with a promise to several mem
bers they would have an oppor-
tunity to bring up their bills to-
day.
The insurance code, which is
1873 pages long, will be brought
up under suspension Of the rules
under present plans. This will
limit debate to 40 minutes and
prevent amendments but necessi-
tates q two-thirds vote for pass
age.
The bill drasticaly revises local
insurance laws and greatly
broadens the power of the Super
intendent of Insurance.

ROYAL BELGIAN
BABY NAMED
ALBERT

BRUSSELS, June 7 0NSo
Cannon firing at regular intervals
until the salvo totaled 10l deep
boomS gave to the citizens OF
Brussels today the glad news that
Queen Astrid had given birth to
. baby, her third.
The child was named Albert,
after his illustrious grandfather,
King Albert I, who fell to his
death last February while climb
ing q cliff near Namur. 1t
weighed seven pounds, five ounces
at birth. 1t has blue eyes and
chestnut hair.
King Leopold Immediately con-
ferred upon his son the title Of
Prince Albert Of Liege, a title
which has been dormant since
1879.
In order to establish legally
the sex of the child, a formal
ceremony which has been pre-
scribed procedure in Belgian court
circles for centuries, was carried
out in the salon of the Castle
.Stuyveberg, where the baby was
born. All ministers OF the gov
eminent in frock coats and
striped trousers, holding their tall
silk hats, and all the judges OF
tho high courts, wearing their
black robes and furred or silk
hats, according to their rank,
assembled in the salon.
Minister of Justice Jeanson,
with Burgomaster Max, of Brus-
sells, were in the foreground as
the King entered. followed by a
nurse carrying the baby. The
King formally introduced the
baby to M. JeanSon. AS the
baby squalled just like any child,
Burgomaster Max drew up a
birth certificate and the King
then conferred name and title
upon his son.
It was the first time in 100
years that a child had been born
to a reigning Queen Of the Bel
gianS. All other children of Bel
gums royal family were born
before their parents assembled the
xhrone.
