Not knowing where to look next, he stopped and looked around for a crows-nest, but there wasn't any, the crows not liking to nest in houses.

It shows the old salt in one of his sweetest moments exposing him as a homeloving man who would make a swell husband. That is, supposing Popeys were willing to be a husband and supposing some likely girl hove over the horizon at the right moment, and supposing she happened to be a "bru-neck." Now you can have ones of these pictures, autographed by Popeye and countersigned by E.

C. Segar, if you want it. Just write to the Popeye Editor of The Democrat and Leader, enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelpe. The picture will be rushed to you by return mail. And don't forget that Popeye cavorts in the comic Thimble Theater in Tho Democrat and Leader every day.

Popeye, the hard-fisted and soft-hearted sail-orman who holds the spotlight in Thimble Theatre, moved into hi3 new beach home here today, attended by a hornpipe in the flesrh and the booming of camera flashlights.

The installation of the comic star in his new home was an event comparable to a rainstorm, which, contrary to general opinion, is more welcome in this land of sunshine than a drink to a dying man in a desert, provided it doesn't come too often. The entire cast of Thimble Theatre turned out for the occasion, as well as the master director, stagehand, property man and scene shifter, E. C. Segar. "Well, blow me down!" was all Popeye could say as he viewed his future domicile that is, until he found his voice.

Then he continued: "I never lived in such raagneli-gance in my life. Nearest I ever come to it was the time 1 shipped on a millionaire's yacht. That yacht had even the glory hole painted pink. "What I likes about this new house most is that they ain't noth-in' in it what don't look like jes' what 'tis.

Here are the exact words of a noted authority retained by us to study this question. He writes "First, the vocal chords, on ao count of their delicacy ofstruo be the first tissues to give indication of irritation, evidenced by the huskiness of the smoker's voice, the result of relaxed tension and slower vibration of the vocal chords.

The next site of irritation would be the tissues adjacent to the vocal chords compris' ing the larynx, therefore the general focal point of the irrU tation would be in the voice box represented externally by Lin.
