You're angry with Jimmy, and perhaps I don't blame you. but . . ." They had come to a little park now. and since there was plenty of time left. sally selected a bench under the towering tree near the entrance. It was too early in the evening for the park to have at- trncted many persons. but here of what was to come. young coup- les couldrbe seen sitting very close. girls' heads on hoys' shoulders. and the still evening air tilled and there, perhaps an indication. with son munnurings. she ieli a little thrill run through her, a thrill of delight, a thrill of unreal She jerked her head back with a little becoming snort.

'You deserved to meet someone really nice." Encouraged, he took her hand. handling it as gently as one might a precious jewel. Mike continued to hang on to Sally's hand. Hard. "sally." he said quietly. "you are what I've always wanted." she couldn't understand. "Mike, you mean that despite my temp- er. despite the way I have acted. you really want. to marry me?" "1 do."

It is only comparatively recent- ly that people have begun to bath regularly. Three hundred years ago even Kings didn't think it necessary to bathe every day. Mod- ern sanitation has changed all this. Today people know that wherever there is dirt there is bound to be infection.

Beggars disfigured by small-Ipox or leprosy, thronged the streets. So what. has made us healthier? Water, soap and clean surroundings. i O U 0 Besides keeping us clean, soap is used to separate precious metal irom the rock in which it is em- beded. First, the ore is pulverized and put into strong soap suds. The soap bubbles pick up the bits,.oi' ore and metal and bring them to the surface. Here a selective pro- cess begins.

Indeed the human body contains proportion- ately almost as much water as a fresh cucumber.

The body of an adult. contains less water in comparison with its weight. but it is still three-fourths water. The one thing you may search 9 spare.
