FOODS AND EXERCISE
NECESSARY
As it is true regarding your facial skin, so is it with your scalp, Sen- sible foods and exercise are needed for true beauty.. As the weather permits get out of doors and run or walk, or play a recreational game. Jump rope--that's grand! Try to eat your meals at regular hours each day and do include a lot of fresh fruit juices and vegetables. Fish, which contains iodine, is good for hair nourishment. So include. that too in your menus.
On new chapeau, or Spring suit will look nicely on you, unless your hair is glossy with health and at- tention. So get busy.

'THE KING'S
PARTING FROM
HIS FAVOURITE"
What The Stars Foretell
(By MAR/ BLAKE)....
The average person will lack dis- cretion this day. Indecision is a fault that is likely to be one of the day's greatest evils. Frivolous ex- cuses will cause many a person to get deeper into hot water. The truth, even if it is not palatable, may do far more good this day than an unreasoning apology. Eaves. droppers, must be guarded against, for there is a chance that many per- sons will indulge in it, especially children. Hints in all likelihood, will be difficult to put across, so in many cases plain speaking will be the only means of getting some idea accepted. Be careful that, in hand- ling figures or money, mistakes do not occur, through your attention being diverted, as interruptions will be responsible for most of the errors made this day. Married and engag- ed couples, as well as those who have found the "one and only" per- son they wish to marry, might dis- cover that conforming to wishes will brighten this day considerably.
