one thing we cannot animate and
add interest to the nose as We do to
our eyes and lips.
As for the shape Of the nose. plastic
surgery can amend that. But 1t is
q specialists field and therefore some
what costly for the woman Of mod
crate means.
The best thing to do Is to call at
tention away from the nose; play up
the hair, the eyes, the mouth. the
chin If it is particularly good. Black
heads and enlarged pores should not
be tolerated. A good complexion
brush, bland soap, water, q good
workout and the blackheads will soon
lose their tenacious stubbornness.
Hot compress applications will help
to soften the skin and stimulate the
circulation. Then cover the finger
tips with tissues and press gently. Be
careful not to bruise or break the
skin. And If 1t is slightly bruised
follow with an application of zinc
oxide ointment. Otherwise after re-
moving the blackheads, pat with iced
skin tonic or iced witch hazel to
which a few drops of tincture of ben
zoine have been added (enough to
make 1t slightly milky liquid.
The same treatment for enlarged
pores-cleansing plus iced tonic. And
general exercise to stimulate the cir
culation through the body.

there are likely to be more Of them
close by and, remember, you can ex-
pect to see them In this location year
after year.
They are sociable among themselves.
They arrange themselves in position
ready to strike at an intruder. These
spots are referred to as "rattlesnake
dens."
In the Spring the snakes emerge
from their hibernating quarters. They
shed their old clothes soon afterward.
They make fine additions to your ma
ture collection. The great crested fly
catcher never considers her nursery
completed until the skin Of snake
is dangling from it.
1t should be mentioned here that
these snakes are considered the mildest
of their tribe and are said to be happy
and well-behaved in captivity. Re-
member, they are well-bred and always
give you warning they are displeased
at your intrusion. They depart hastily
from your presence when flight is
possible.
They are excellent hunters and
know the places to look for warm
blooded prey. Squirrels, rabbits, mice
rats and birds, in the homelands Of
the timber-banded rattlesnake, must
and do watch their step.

Orchard.
Jenny went into the house and
looked at those six eggs. She came
out again She did this thing a half
dozen times. She was trying to de-
eide whether to move or not to move.
She knew that what Johnny had said
was true. If she took the time 10
hunt for a new home and to build a
new nest, and after that to lay new
set of eggs, she certainly would be
late in raising a family.
1t was those six eggs that finally
settled the question. When Johnny
returned some time later to find out
what she was going to do, he found
her sitting on those eggs. He didn't
ask any questions. He didn't need to.
The fact that she was sitting on those
eggs meant that she intended to stay.
Johnny at once sang to her the sweet

more reigned in Farmer Browns

Large Nose

How Best to Deal ]
With Both Beauty
Problems.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.


A VERY well written letter from a
Every Interested Reader"-about
"the nose"
It starts: II read somewhere, in
college. French perhaps, that If Cleo
patra's nose had been q little longer,
the destiny Of the entire world might
have been changed. At least, that's
the gist of it. The average woman
does not attempt to change the des-
tiny of the world, but it might be that
her destiny would be quite different If
it weren't for the nose.
There's no denying the fact that
many of us lose out literally by nose.
Particularly If that nose is longish
and a childhood fall has detected the
septum leaving little hook where 1t
is least wanted. If that weren't
enough woe, why will blackheads park
there except to make it look more
conspicuous? And there are enlarged
pores. Altogether sad plight and
one that think accounts for the total
absence Of dates, which oddly enough
causes concern to one who likes to
think of herself as Indifferent, but
really isn't. I'm being frank. you see,
Please help"
The only sad part. so far as this
column can see, is the fact that too
often one attracts or fails to on sheer
facial beauty alone. For surely any
one who can write so charming a
letter must have inherent charm
which should soon be recognized.
But, after all, few modern men really

The Old Gardener Saws:

Garden makers with very
little space available some times
find 1t advisable to grow straw
berries in barrels or casks. The
barrels are prepared by boring
holes in the sides about 4 inches
in diameter and about IL inches
apart. Three boards are fastened
to the inside Of the barrel to
act as a support to the earth
in which the Strawberries grow,
one board being placed above
the other, thus dividing the
barrel into sections. Some plants
may be set in the earth on top
of the barrel, all the others 60
ing through the holes. 1t is
we'll to have a few holes bored
in the bottom of the barrel to
provide drainage. The barrel
should be elevated 2 or 3 inches
from the ground ON bricks or
blocks of wood. Fifteen or IS
strawberry plants can be set
into one barrel and there they
will grow luxuriously If kept
well watered and If the runners
are cut off.
