Never Mind How Strong You Are —
What d'ye Know?
That's the point—"What d'ye KNOW?"
I o-day it's a battle of wits—and brains win.
Muscle and brawn don't count so much as tliev used to.
In the fight for good jobs and big salaries it's brains
—not brawn—that win. "What d'ye KNOW?" is the
one great question that draws the line between defeat
and victory—between "wages" and "salary"—between
you and the Boss.
What do YOU know? Are YOU so expert in some
line of work that you can "make good" as a foreman,
superintendent, or manager? If not, why don't you mark
and mail the attached coupon and permit the Interna
tional Correspondence Schools to show you how you
CAN "make good" on a big job?
For 23 years the I. C. S. have been showing men how to
do better work and earn bigger salaries. Every month over 400
students write of promotions or salary increases through I. C.
S. training. What the I. C. S. are doing for these men they can
do for YOU.
No matter where you live, how old you are, what hours
you work, or how limited your education—if you can read and
write and are ambitious to learn the I. C. S. can train you in
your own home, during your spare time, for a more important
and better-paying position.
Mark and mail the attached coupon—it won't obligate
you In the least—and the I. C. S. will show you how you can

Aunt Este's Stories For Children
My dear little ones:
How would you enjoy hearing a ghost story of that funny
bird we all so much enjoy—thu Poll Parrot? Well, listen, and I
shall tell you
HOW THE I'All HOTS PLAYED GHOST
11 S* n P c upon a time there was a great wild forest. It was so
wild that never had there been heard inside it a human voice.
The trees were full of all sorts of birds and the mountains were
full of all sorts of beasts and the holes in the ground were full of
all sorts of snakes, doing just what they pleased without ever
being worried by man.
All of the little creatures living in this wild place were con
tented and happy, until one sad day.
Into the wilds came strange beings—beings in queer clothes
carrying guns.
i( _ r We will try to make this place worth living in," they Raid.
, 6 i shoot the wild animals and drive away the wild birds
and kill the snakes. Then we will build houses and live in peace."
Of course the little birds and the nasty snakes and the big
animals did not understand what those queer people said, (for, of
course, they were people), but they knew enough to know that it
would mar their pleasant life.
"Oh dear me,' said the bears and the wolves and the other
beasts, "this means an end to the way we have been living. We
will have to flght and run, and run and fight."
"Oh dear me," said the little birds, "now we can't sit where we
please and sing for we may be shot."
Now among the birds of the forest lived some of brilliant
plumage. Most beautiful birds indeed were they, so far as their
feathers were concerned. But they had queer hooked beaks, and
were not at all like the other birds round about. They could not
sing pretty tunes, but had harsh voices that just seemed to make
the most horrible discords all the time. The other birds had long
made fun of them and said they were of no account.
But after the strange people came, these birds, with their
hooked beaks seemed to take notice. Every day instead of flying
away to some crevice to groan about the newcomers they sat *iear
to where the strange folk were gathered together talking, and
watched their mouths. Then they went awav to trv the sounds
they heard.
"We'll shoot them." said the people. "We'll kill them and eat
them." "They flare not live." We'll drive them out."
At last Poll Parrot and his mates (for that IF what the queer
hooked beak birds were called), succeeded in making the sounds
they heard. Then they went to the birds and beasts and anakos

of the forest and said: "What will you do for us if we drive out
these wild people?" .. _
"Do for you?" asked the birds, "why we'll give you the finest
trees in the forest for homes and honor you above all birds.
"And never make fun of our harsh voices any more, or jeer us
because we can't sing l ?" asked the parrots.
"Never," solemnly repeated the other birds and animals and
snakes.
So just as the night began to fall and the wolves howled, and
the forest was a fearsome place at any rate, the parrot family
gathered together on the branches of a thick oak, and in the
wierdest tones chanted: "We'll shoot them." "We'll kill them
and eat them alive" "They dare not live." "We'll drive them out. '
And all the unkind things they had heard the people repeat about
the animals and birds in just their own harsh tone of voice, only
somewhat harsher, they said to the people huddled beneath the
trees in frightened groups.
Now these people who had come to the great forest were not
as bright as the little bovs and girls to-day, and they believed in
ghosts—really truly ghosts—so they looked around for the voices
who were saying they would shoot them, and could see no one—
yet they heard the same thing again and again:
"We'll shoot them." "We'll kill them and eat them." They
dare not live." "We'll drive" them out."
They tried not to be afraid. But when night after night as
the woods grew dark and lonesome and the wolves- howli>l and
the snakes rattled, and they heard this strange chorus of voices,
and could find no person in sight, they began to be afraid. One
by one they left tne great forest—until at last no one was left
but the beasts and the- birds and the snakes.
"Now," said the Poll Parrots, when everything \vas peaceful
and quiet once more, "come and bow down before us, and hail us
kings of the forest."
And the little birds all were glad to do so. Even the huge
beasts growled their praise, and the snakes hissed theirs. And
the beasts groaned, and the snakes hissed, and the birds sang—
the Parrot lived in the midst of praise.
And the men? Well, they did not try the great forest again
for many years—but when they did, they caught some of the foxy
parrots and took them home in cages to show their children
what wonderful birds they really were—and that is the reason
the parrots like to swear and say naughty words to-day—because
they have never l'orgiven the great men for taking away their
lrcedom and* dethroning them as kings in the great forest.

SURE WAY TO GET
RID OF DANDRUFF
End Itching Scalp and Stop Fall
ing Hair—At Once. J
There is one suie way that never J
fails to remove dandruff completely M
and that Is io dissolve it. This de- ■
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when ■
retiring; use enough to moisten the ■
scalp and- rub it in gently with tha V
linger tips. V
By morning most. If not all, of your *
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely t
dissolve and entirely destroy, every m
single Bign and trace of it no matter I
how much dandruff you may have. fl
You will find, too, that all itching ■
and digging of the scalp will stop in- 1
atantly, and your hair will be fluffy, 1
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
. If you want to keep your hair look
ing rich, do by all means get rid of
dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair
so quickly. It not only starves tho
hair and makes it fall out, but it
makes it stringy, straggly, dull, dry,
brittle and lifeless, and everybody no
tices it. You can get liquid arvon at
any drug store. It is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need. This
simple remedy has never been known
to fail. —Advertisement.
