KRE1SLER, FAMOUS VIOLINIST, MAY BE AUSTRIA'S NEXT AMBASSADOR TO U. S, How happv Tinker Bob. the Kinpr, was when he thought of the Wonder ful Creature of His Desire and how he cou'tl depend on what Old Man Ex perience said. Just anything he want ed to l;now he eould know by tapping the Stone of Knowledge. Never had the Beautiful Creature disappointed him in all of his wonderful life with the folks of the forest. Tinker was liking his forest friends better every day beeau.se he was get ting better acquainted with them. Mr. Fox had told him he would when he first met the old man on his way to the bridge with Lady Duck. Tinker ivas t he happiest fellow in the world because he was helping the creatures of the forest to know each other bet er. "After all." he said, "when we now each other better we like each Uicr better." That was a true saying- and Tinker Bob could tell it to everyone in the world. "Silky," said he. "I want to tell every child in the world the story I learned from Old Man Experience, about knowing each other better." "Well, just tell it to Jerry, the Jay bird. nd it will not be long till every body on earth with know about it. Of course you must tell Jerry not to say a word about it, and then he'll be sure to tell everyone he meets." "The idea," exclaimed Tinker Bob. "Do you thinl Jerry would tell every one in the world? Maybe he would but the folks of the world wouldn't be lieve him if he did." 'O King, look here! We are almost at the pace where Reddy told us that Chief Porkey wa in trouble." Tinker Bob looked over the edge of the Magic Basket and sure enough thy were almost to the spot. The big hearted Mr. Moon had heard . i i m Will Cmm . . FOR SALE!!

"lie is all rolled up in a baJl. But what a looking crea ture vhat is beside him." The King looked to see a creature with thorn-quijls in his nose standing not far from the Forest Chief. Major Pole Cat wanted to get out of the bas ket and go to the rescue of Chief Porky. The King said, "the Chief is still safe. He will take care, of himself in this fight." They only waited a moment or two fill the creature went again to the Chief nnd tried his best to turn him over. He had learned that the only way to kill a fellow that had so many thorn-quills on his back was to turn him over and go after him where the quills were not so thick. It was Chief Porky's desire to keep the underside ; of his body on the ground. . He took a short step toward the. Chief of the Forest and tried the sec ond time to turn him over with his paw. Suddenly ihe Big-hearted Mr.! Moon snone rair upon mm ana r startled him for a moment. We will hear what happened tomorrow. MSSs. J mmmf felt Most recent portrait of Fritz Kreisler and Mrs. Kreisler.

McCauslan "IX THE BUSINESS 37 YEARS' 221 South Tryon St. d & Co. Margaret: A double chin cannot be reduced quickly, but it can be reduced if you are patient and if you persist. Massage and knead the skin with the hands, using a rather vigorous motion to break up the particles of flesh under the skin, then rub at least five min utes with a piece of ice. Discouraged Betty: If your eyes are always bloodshot and red, I am inclined to think it is because they arc a little trained. You may need glasses or you may only need a little rest and- a gen eral building up. If you have cried a great deal for the last three years, you have been in an unhappy and depressed state of mind. This is certainly going to affect you all over and in all sorts of unforeseen ways. The health of the hair is always affected by nervousness and depression, so is the complexion and so are the eyes. I would advise you to rest and to build yourself up and to do everything to make your life happier before you give in to a feeling that your eyes are ruined for life. Mrs. B. V. W.: The only thing that will permanently remove the growth of hair on the face is the electric needle. To get these treatments you will have to go to an electric needle specialist who charges by the hour and who can remove quite a few hairs during an hour's sitting. Do not shave, but bleach the hairs with peroxide and pull them out with a pair of tweezers. Betty D.: Send me a letter with a self -addressed stamped envelope en closed and -I will send you a formula for developing the bust. Mrs. Fatty: A great deal of dancing, being vigorous exercise, should certain ly reduce you, unless you allow the ap petite as a result of all this exersise to lead you into over-eating. B. E. A. N.: If the growth of the hair on your arms annoys you, do n6t try to pftll out the individual hairs, instead bleach this growth with peroxide. A girl of 16, a feet 3 inches should not weigh more than 120 pounds. E. W.: If your skin is too oily, use astringents on it. Do not use any cold cream, but wash wit hhot water and castile soap every day and follow this by an ice rub or by using toilet water or any good astringent. Corrina: If the hair is curled every two weeks with a very hot iron it is ouite likelv to stoo growing. The curl ing iron should- never be hot. If the hair must be curled, it is much better to use kid curlers. A girl 18, 5 feet 2 1-2 inches should weigh 117 pounds. A wo man of 40, 3 feet 5 1-2 inches should weigh 139. Minna L. II.: You can remove the blackheads from the nose by using the blackhead cleansing powder, a formula for which I will send you if you will mail me a self -addressed stamped: en velope. I imagine it is much the same as the powder you mention. "What's your opinion about the hy phenated business?" ' "Oh, so long as nobody takes the hy phen out of fifty-fifty. I should worry."

He feeds the frisky pigs at dawn, And spades the frozen field. For garden sass and sassafras And other country yeild He cranks the Ford and hustles down To sell the chuck to folks in town. The farmer breaks his bending back For sixteen hours each day, With mighty sweats he pays his debts And keeps the wolf away He toils away in cold and heat For stuff for city folks to eat.
