ability, and if they were slow and could not say their tables, that would prove they were too dull-witted to grasp an emergency brake. Then they'd be tested for health and sight and selfishness— whether they were the type that always tooted their horn and disnerved people and scraped their fenders. And if they were, they wouldn't get a license. "And I'd impose nothing less than one year's imprisonment for killing if there's evidence enough that a man did it through carelessness. And I'd make him do a tour of the morgue. And I'd take his license away forever — iorcz'cr, mind you. But if he only sort of wounds the innocent victim, I'd take it away for two years. Then people wouldn't be so quick to want licenses, because of the king's stern punishment. They'd say : 'No — I'd better not.' For instance, how about you, Cis ? Would you want one ? You see ? she wouldn't. Cis is the first case. There you are ! It's working ! Right in the family." He was squealing with delight, pumping Cis's hand in vigorous gratitude for her cooperation. "And I'd go around incognito. That must be great fun. There's no actor or actress who can go around incognito, because people know them from seeing them on the screen. For instance, if a king put on an old tie and walked into a grocery shop, he'd just be another shopper in an old tie. But if Mae West put on an old dress, they'd just say she was stingy and recognize her. "Then, of course, there's war. I wouldn't make one, but if other kingdoms challenged me, I'd go. Oh yes, I'd go. No soft-soap stuff for me. I don't know that I'd specially care for bloodshed, however, so maybe when they saw this huge English-American army approaching, they'd just kindly surrender. But if other kingdoms challenged me, I'd go. And I'd lead the army myself. That's what a good king does, isn't it? And if I were king," he assured us earnestly, "I'd be a good king. And my kingdom would be a good kingdom." As good a king as you are an actor, Freddie. As kindly and sound a king as you are a boy. No kingdom could ask more. Test Your Movie Memory!

(You will find the answers on page 83.) unbelievable W$> The whole world is diligently striving to educate women to develop greater personal charm and beauty — and the now recognized outstanding beauty secret is the Linit Bath, for its results are immediate, and it is amazingly economical. $Ra Just imagine stepping out of your bath and after drying, finding that your skin is soft and satiny smooth as a rose petal. fista Prove to yourself this claim made for the Linit Bath, by making this simple test on your hands. Dissolve some Linit in your basin water, wash your hands as usual and, after drying, feel your skin. It will be soft and smooth as the rarest old velvet. This is also the immediate result obtained when Linit is used in your tub water, for the Linit Bath accomplishes the same thing for the entire body. Wz And remember, the Linit Beauty Bath does away with the damp or semi-dry feeling of the skin that usually follows an ordinary bath. Linit leaves on the skin an exceedingly fine porous coating of powder which absorbs perspiration luithout clogging the pores, makes dusting with bath talcum unnecessary and imparts to the body an exquisite sense of personal daintiness. Don't overlook the directions on the Linit package — recommending Linit for starching. Linit makes even ordinary cotton fabrics look and feel like linen.
