WHY GROW OLD -LOOKING?
The' dread. of "looking old" is a
very real one to women! And the de-
sire to lookyouthful is equally vivid.
Fortunately, there is not one of us
but can take years off our appear-
ance by devoting a little more care
to certain vital factors, with which-
deal this week.
Mouth, Lines around the mouth
often arise from distorted • facial
habits. Avoid pouting. Apply a touch
of rich tissue cream daily. And try
this treatment—often. Close lips, fill
your mouth with air and blow hard.
A simple but remarkably effective
method to keep mouth lines at bay:
Forehead: Scowling and frowning
quickly- weave a pattern of ;`aging"
lines. Perhaps your eyesight is none
too good, or your feet pain you?
Cheek these points. Curb any nerv-
ous habits, such as undue eyebrow -
raising. When massaging with cream
use a •firer pressure—up and out.
Feet. An elastic walk shows youth-
ulness. Wear shoes that ai'e large
enough, and foreswear pointed toes!
Cramped feet develop corns. if you
have corns, don't be a martyr, but buy
a good corn plaster.
Write me for confidential beauty
advice. The following leaflets may
be obtained by sending a 3c stamp
for each one requirbd: Facial Care,
Bust Development; Superfluous hair;

Some men at the chub were telling
dog stories after a day's shooting. Af-
ter some time when the tales had got
very "tall" one little man, who had
been quite silent, said:—
"I have a dog that makes all yours
seem foolish. I generally feed him
myself after dinner, but the other
day a friend dropped in, and the poor
animal slipped my mind, After the
ileal we went into the garden. The
dog scratched up a flower and laid it

Nearly every man has a hobby and
Jack Walker of Seaforth is no ex•

an unusual nature and that is raising
dachshund dogs—not one or two dogs
but twelve of them, says the Stratford
Beacon Herald. Mr. Walker is the
owner of the famous dog Muck Von.
Mayndale, commonly known as Muck,
He purchased Muck about a year and
a 'half ago and has shown him in sev-
er! Canadian and United States dog
shows, achieving considerable success
with hint. At the New York dog show
this winter Muck got two firsts, one
second and a special prize. During
one ' of the competitions Muck and
another dog were tied for first hon-
ors so to decide the winner the judge
had the dogs do some retrieving.
Muck got along all right until he was

Lady. Lady is of a brownish color,
ant is quite a bit smaller than her
elate. It wasn't ling until there wore
seven of these elongated dogs and at
this stage Jack decided that he
couldn't possibly keep seven dogs, in
his house so he bought a one -and -a -
halt storied house for them. Jack had
this house moved to his back yard
and then he began to redecorate it.
He put a foundation under it, and
plastered, painted and papered the
inside of the house. Inside are four
little stalls or pens painted red and
white with a runway from each pen
to an enclosed space outside the
house, which is equipped with a radio
set. The waits are hung with pictures
of dachshund dogs. There is also a
studio couch. About seven or eight
weeks ago another batch of quintup-
lets arrived, so now Jack has twelve
"sausage dogs" as they are common-
ly known, Recently Jack decided that
he had rather a valuable collection
here so he hired Jack Holland of
Dublin to guard his precious pets.
Now when anyone walks into the
Walker yard he sees anywhere from
two to ten of these dogs stretched
lazily under a huge umbrella in the
yard.
EVER HEAR THIS ONE?
Willie (very seriously)—Papa, I
had a strange dream this morning.
Papa—Indeed! What was it?
Willie—I dreamed, papa, that I
died and went to Heaven; and when
St. Peter met me at the gate, instead
of showing me the way to the golden
street, as I expected, he took me out
into a large field and in the middle
of the field there was a ladder reach-
ing away up into the sky and out of
sight.: Then St. Peter told me that
Heaven was at the top, and that in
order to get there I musttake the big
piece of chalk he gave me and slowly.
climb the ladder, writing on each
rung some sin I had committed.
Papa (laying down his newspaper)
—And did you finally' reach Heaven,
any son?
Willie—No, papa;- for just as I was
trying to think of something to -write
on the second runglooked up and
'saw you coming down,
Papa—And what was I coming
down for?
Willie—That's what I asked you,
and you told me you - were coming
for more chalk.
