Ivey & Co BEAUTY CHATS By EDNA KENT FORBES Cold cream Is a cold weather neces sity. The winter air is wonderful for the complexion; it closes the pores and makes a-young girl even prettier than usual; but it does dry" the skin badly. v That's why cold cream is such a necessity in winter time. Very ten der skins would probably benefit if cream were rubbed in before expos- i ure with a light powdering over the cosmetic. Generally, it is . enough to washthe face with warm water and soap at night, and then massage in enough cream to soften the skin, and to follow this by a cold rinse. The skin reequires more oils than usual in the cold weather and often more oils than it secretes. The best cream is made with al mond oil, which is both cleansing, whitening and nourishing. But a very good cream which is really for cleans ing purposes, only, can be made with white mineral , oil. Almond oil costs from 15 cents to 20 cents an ounce- or it did the last time I bought it while mineral oil costs about a third as much. A woman with an oily skin can make up a cream combining these two oils, which will not cost so much and which will prevent chap ping, and at the same time will not make her skin any more oily than be fore. Chapped hanads can be treated with cold cream, camphor ice, camphorated vaseline because camphor is healing or, plain lard. Lard is more pene trating than cold cream because it is pure oil without any wax in it. And it's cheaper. You can make a very good winter cream for the hands by adding about thirty grains of powder ed camphor to a small cup of strain ed lard. Questions and Answers. Mildred H.

After supper Father Beaver called out, "Let everybody take his tools and follow me to the grove of poplar trees; for we must build those new houses at qnce." And it was a wonderful sight to see those carpenters, architects, and ma sons hurry to keep up with Father Beaver. " He was a fast and skilful en gineer, and was the Boss of carpen ters and' "builders:'" And he gave his orders: "Let every workman take all his bast and sharpest, tools and get busy, as never before.' You see, Father Beaver wanted his cousins from the burned village to have some nice new houses of their own, so that they wouldn't get home sick. It was a lively scene, that night, at the poplar grove and around Beaver town. Watchmen and policemen were placed again in Mirror Pond, along the . canals, and runways, and in the poplar grove. And these watchers gave the sig nal of danger if any Bears, Wildcats, or- Foxes came prowling around to catch them, while they were work Father Beaver worked like lighten ing; and his example kept all the Beavers very lively at their work. You know one -busy and fastworking person will stir up others to work hard also, just as one idle and lazy person may influence others to be idle and lazy. But there wasn't a lazy hair in Father Beaver's big fur coat, nor in his fur overalls either. And under his influence all those workers used their tools very rapidly, and their i big, sharp, yellow teeth cut up those trees into little short logs; and the branches were cut into small sticks. Watchmen and policemen were placed again in Mirror Pond. And then the Beavers began to carry the little logs and the small pieces of the limbs of the trees to Beavertown, for the building of the new cottage. v ' While many Beaver workers car ried the timbers for the houses, Fa ther Beaver took Tom and Jerry, and other strong workers, to dig the foun dations. Father Beaver chose the sites of each of the three new houses. One house was to b9 ; built on Spring Street, another on the Grand Canal, and another facing Water Park. And it was a strange sight to see the-workers dig the cellars. And below the cellars they dug sub-cellars. And then they dug little canals from the cellars into Mirror Pond. It was a wonderful sight to see so many masons, carpenters and engineers' busy. , Tomorrow The New Houses Are Finished. "I've finished a dozen sketches forit; and as I worked it struck me that you have wasted a.first-clas3 drama idea on a mere advertisement! The pictures bring that out better than I can" tell you If you come up to my studio I'll show you just What I mean." Walt looked at the time." Eleven! o'clock. He should be on his way home. He caught a little quizzical smile on Lucy's lips. He knew what she was smiling at. Before marriage eleven o'clock would have meant the start of an evening with him, espec ially when there was "shop" interest In hand. Now . "Come along, Lucy, I'm with you!" he said, and led the way to her studio. (To be Continued.) .

To Walt the reception ke got from his old friends in bohemia after his considerable absence from them came as a good deal of a shock. ' He had had them so constantly in his thoughts to find how little he had been in theirs, that it was a painful surprise for him That he had lost the intimate place he once had with them was apparent to him. ; He felt the reserve in their greeting, which came not so much from any lack of cordiality in their feeling as from the fact that their minds were engrossed in matters in which he no longer had a share. He was an outsider now, welcome, it was true; but just the same an outsider. The change troubled Walt so that he took himself for a liqueur to the Lafayette to think things over alone. It was too bad, this loss of his old, interesting world, especially, as there seemed to be no necessity for it. It was only Janet's imagination that she did not belong in this world of writers and painters, those children of talent and gayety. She could be as gay as any of them; and if she could only fled herself at home with them he and she could show the world a com panionship that would be the envy and example in a world of romantic rela tionships. . But . She had decided against it. So he was sitting alone in the Lafayette, with every little atble about him gay with companionly groups. All about the Square were other such groups in cafes, restaurants, clubs and studios, WOMEN A3k your druggist for Mrs. Joe Per son's Remedy, known for over 40 years.

It was like being alone in Venice, In a gondola, with the moon full and the season late spring. "It Is not good for a man to sit alone!" ' Walt looked up startled, as though he had forgotten himself and had spoken his thought. But it was Lucy Benton who had spoken. "Ask me to have a Chartreuse with you, Walt," she said, smiling down aT him. . "Welcome!" said Walt, with a cor dial wave of his hand as fee signaled to the waiter, Lucy , had stopped at her studio on her way to the Lafayette. She re membered that Walt used to like her best in a corduroy dress patterned on an artist's smock. She now wore the smock as she sat opposite Walt; and her hair was done with the simple artistry Lucy knew how to. employ. "Talk to me, Walt about anything that interests you," she said, with con vincing sincerity and friendliness. - Lucy's invitation came gratefully. She had skilfully made it" impersonal for the moment, as though it was only camaraderie that spoke; as he would have spoken to a girl friend. But Lucy knew well the art of reading be tween the lines. She meant to know. just how matters stood between Walt and Janet; . and anything that Walt would talk about was sure to give her the clew. . Walt's passing mood of lonliness which Lucy had dispelled by her com ing crept out in his talk. Subtly as Lucy gathered the little unconscious betrayals in his talk she read discon tent into them. When she thought she knew how matters stood she di verted the conversation. . "Walt, Mr.- Haines gave me an ad vertising booklet .of yours to 'illus- finiB'ist or write L Company. Charlotte, N.
