THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 5, 1916

Copyright. 1916, by the MeClur WHY CANARIES ARE YELLOW, f "Tweet, tweet, tweet," sans all tne birds outside of Queen Mab's window. For Jt was the first day of Jane and all bad gathered to do homage to the queen of; the fairies. i, . "Hush, dearies." whispered the fairy queen, as she stepped out of a tall lily. "Father-is sick, and I fear, very 111." All the birds ceased their songs. " We will do anything we can," they all said in a flutter. "Tell us what will help him." "Father is 10.000 years old," said the queen, "and only a young man yet, but he has a nervous trouble with heart. He has always kept his medicine : by his side, but the last bottle fell and broke last niehi. so he feels wretchedly today. There is plenty of it in the Yellow Spring, but that is in a dark cavern and guarded by a three-headed dragon, so I fear td send any one there. - When he' felt well he always went himself and his magic power protected him, but as he is sick be hay lost his power." Now , it happened . that - among all these gay birds was one little coal black one, who was so ashamed of himself , that he kept behind the bushes. How he envied the lovely hues of the gayly colored ones, and most of air a beautiful fellow whose purple plumes shone into gold at their tips. This bird, called the egre, expected to be appointed as page to the queen on account of his beauty. Now this egre was very vain and wanted -to win Mab's favor, so he said he would go for the yellow water. So he set out very bravely and flew a long way, but when it grew dark and cold he rested. Then beside him he saw the little , black bird. "What are you following me for?" snapped the . egre. "I want no such common folks as you on my trail." The little bird shivered. "I did. not mean any harm,", he. said humbly. "I love the queen, so I thought I would come along too. I might be of some help. But the egre did not answer and only flew proudly away but the little black bird followed at a distance. Presently he saw the egre again resting. "I ato tired of this mission," said; the egre as he taught sight of thej black bird. ."1 mean to stay here forj two days, then gq homo and say Ij could not find the spring." And he curled himself up in a warm hole for a long nap. But the little bird kept on. It was windy, the rain came down, and his tiny wings began to droop, but he would not stop. At last he saw the i dark pntrante to a cavern and knew he was- at his journey's end. i "I am so black the dragon will not; see me in the dark," he murmured. So: softly he crept in while the three j heads of the dragon snored loudly, j Right at the side of the spring was aj row of bottles all full of the yellow j water and he took one up in his bill. i Clip, clip, clip, he went out again. In i a few hours he passed the tree in which the egre lay sleeping, and by dawn he was pecking at Queen Mab's window. "Oh, you darling!" exclaimed the tiuecn. "Who would have thought of jour being brave enough to make the trip"" The fairy father seized the bottle and drank a few "drops inttantly he was perfectly well. Just then in raged the egre. He had Avakened and seen the bird flying bv with the bottle. And so angry wasf lit? Luai lie, -at. ii, I'uouiug n Lliriu the table. Fortunately not much was spilled, for the father caught it before it struck the floor, but some drops flew on both tbe black bird and on the egre. "I am well and have my magic pow-i

FACTS ABOUT YOOR DAIR There are about 175,000 hairs in your head. . Each one is an independent oil plant and like any other plant must have con-t stant care. If neglected, it gets sick and dies. Dandruff is the greatest enemy of the hair. It seals up the hair-cells, smothers out the roots and causes the hair to fall. The head should be kept free from 'dandruff. . The hair-cells should be kept opes and healthy. Xot by washing with toilet soaps nor alkali shampoos that will attack the natural oil of the hair and destroy the fatty roots. An oil shampoo with no free alkali should be used. EVERY WEEK ANTI-SEPTIC OIL SHAMPOO contains no free alkali. It opens the hair-cells, leaves the scalp soft, anti-septic aad free front dandruff. It is the only ehampoo containing mineral oil which is a real benefit to the hair plant. Its rich creamy lather thoroughly cleanses the hair and leaves it soft, lustrous and healthy. To insure a vigorous, healthy scalp, - men and children should have a shampoo every week, women every other week. ' ! j A. large bottle holding 64 teaspoouuls, .50c at Thistlethwaite's Drug Stores

Oh, bow delighted he was just to know he could get pretty bright feathers like" the other birds! .No longer to hide bis dark tints behind a bush. "I would love ta be the color-of the magic water I brought," he 6aid. timidly. "I think gold is the loveliest of all hues." "You shall not only be of a golden hue," said the father, ,"but you shall bey the queen's , page , in future. That bad fellow in purple is lazy, selfish, proud, and jealous. J I will . see that in the future he has nothing to be proud of." And he waved his right hand three times in a circle. Then the little black bird's feathers became a brilliant, beautiful gold.
