WAlmost Any Girl'l found herself in a multitude of friends. She thought that she was happy and very pop- ular. One day she fell into a stream of cold water and when she had Climbed out, she looked back into the Clear stream and saw her reflection. All hereoloring and most of her hair was gone; it had been washed away. She sat down and cried because she did not know what else to do. Some one touched her on the shoulder. When she looked up she saw, WVVhat She Might Have Been? whose eyes sparkled and cheeks glowed with health. But the more she looked at her, the more she cried. WVVhat She Might Have Beenil took tlAlmost Any Gier back to her old friends, who ignored her. She saw that her friends were mostly either mere children trying to imitate grown people, or they were haggard, old people, trying to be youthful.

She could not converse intelligently with them because all her amusements had been cheap and frivolous. She could not express herself without using W'Slangy and she could scarcely understand their talk because they used WGood English? KWVhat She Might Have Beenli became disgusted with her and left.

Being young and inexeprienced and being taught by her parents to look at all things very superf1c1ally, ilAl- most Any Girlli thought that to be popular was to be happy. She decided that to be popular, one tnust be beau- tiful and entertaining; and to be entertainlng, one must be clever. Her ambition, therefore, was to be popular by being Clever and beautiful. gg Q LMOST ANY GIRLl, was just growing up and First, she decided to hunt ilBeautyf, who lived in a little stone house at the end of a long path.

If you will go around it, I will tell you a much easier way to get the desired coloring.
