Dear Madam Please advise me In re- I

Will It encourage tho growth of hair?.
Is it advisable to use it regularly?
TOT.
This depends entirely upon your Bkln.
You will have to experiment with It.,
Some skins cannot stand glj-cerlno at
all : they become rough and soro when !
it Is applied, but otflers are helped by it .
If used too frequentlj', even If helpful
to the sk'n, there Is danger of Its causing

birds. That could bo seen In one glance,
lie bad hla bendy eyes on fat Mrs.
rtobln. nnd his head was swaying to
ward her.
Then Just ns Mr. Snake was ready to
grab, something bumped him on the
head. It was tho fishhook bird. Billy
had let It down from above by means
of tho flshllne. Mr. Snake tfodgod In his
surprise lie saw a bird fluttering about
nnd ho thought It was Jus.t ono of the
sleepers suddenly awakened. He turned
again toward Mrs. Robin. ,
The snucy bird circled his head and
bang ! It thumped him on the nose. That
vexed Mr. Snake, but he still thought It
Just a blundering sleepy bird. It didn't
look nearly so tempting as plump Mrs.
Hobln. So Mr. Snake Just gave a low
hiss and opened his Jaws to grab Mrs.
Hobln.
Back came tho saucj fishhook bird,
nnd smack ! It slapped Mr. Snake In the
face.
That was too much for Mr. Snake. He
got mad In a hurrj He turned nwny
from Mrs. Hobln nnd as the saucy fish
hook bird came blundering right Into
his hungry Jaws ho grabbed It grabbed
It hard so It couldn't get awns'.
And then Mr. Snake found himself
grabbed. Tho hooks caught In his Jaws
and a Jerk by Billy fastened them deep.
flight then Mr. Snake suddenly lost
his nnnetite. lie uiun t want to swallow
that fishhook bird. He tried to get rid of
It He pulled back. He thrashed from
side to side. And the harder he pulled,
and the more he thrashed, the deeper
the hooks cut Into his jaws.
When he saw he couldn't get loose any
other wnj', Mr. Snake tried to drop to
the ground. Then lie surciy uiu nnu
himself In trouble. He dropped only a
foot or two, then thnt little bird stopped
short and held him hanging In the air.
There he was, squirming around beside
Cnonev Ilnccoon, anu notn or mem
mighty sorry they had gone out hunt
ing birds that night.
Isn't that a queer fix for Mr. Snake,
and Cooney Raccoon to be In? Do j-ou
think they will get out of It? And how''
Can J-ou guess what Is going to happen
In tomorrow's chaptei ?

anything so utterly satisfying as that
kind of swimming?
That graceful dive followed by a
quirk dash back lo the shore, or out
to the float, is exhilarating.
A wonderful sense of .vour own
strength comes from that long, steady
swim, from the machine-like regularity
of your crawl, or your trudgcon, that
speed test or whatever you are clever
enough to uo.
But how you can rest, bow you can
relax into joyous freedom from care
and worry and everything In the world
that you don't like, when you just lie
down in the water nnd swim miscel

ISN'T' it fun to Btop and think about
it now, at thin time of year?
