again the sound of hoofs, and a horse
man appeared leading a steed on which
was seated a weeping lady. Her dress.

dismal voice

soldier. running down the road to see.
As soon as the mans back was turned
pet let down his fishing line and caught
hoid OF the pan and pulled 1t up the tree
when the soldier returned and found
the pan gone he was astonished. Then
Hete made the crow cav loudly again.
The man jumped around suddenly, and
as nc came oack under the boy Pete
let the barrel drop right down on his
mead. 1t was small barrel and as it

scrambled down from the tree

nons should be tried an equal number
OF times with each leg. in order that
development may be as even as possi-
Bile.
Still another good reducing movement
Is to stand with the heels together and
the hands on the hips. and then to bend
the body at the waist to the right, to
the LEFT and backward as far as the
muscles permit. During the first few
times that this exercise is taken there
should be care in the backward tending
movement not to strain the muscles in
volyed
Fifteen minutes a day is long enough
for most women to spend in this drill,
which is adapted for reducin. the size
of the hips and abdomen. Be sure to
wear loose clothing when going through
with the movements, as they will be
more beneficial and you will be more
comfortable. Personally, I believe that
a really beautiful figure never needs
corset and should not wear one.

TITLE PETE was hungry.

TITLE PETE was hungry. But
as he sat in corner of the
Il chimney watching the light
dance back in the shadows. he
forgot that he was also ragged and
lonely too For Pete was an orphan
who/lived with a very cross uncle and
worked so hard he had little time for
play.
AS he sat dreaming about the great
world of which he had heard his uncle
speak-of the king who lived in a mag
nificent palace. of the beautiful Princess
Maybe forgot to watch the dinner-pot
which hung from a big hook over the
fire And in a moment the soup boiled
over. making a cloud of steam that
filled the room.
What is all this about?' cried the
gruff voice of the uncle as he came in
with a load OF wood in his arms. Cant
you attend to your business moment

spend your time fishing and playing
with that silly crow"
Pete ran to the pot and lifted it to
the table. but as did so, some Of
the broth spilled on the floor.
Here, get out of this" roared the
uncle in a rage. Get your fishing pole
and your old crow and leave at once
Then he opened the door and Win
jerk pushed the boy outside.
Pete stumbled to the shed, for his
ewes were blinded with tears. 1t was
a sad home, but the only one he knew,
and now he was to be turned out into
the world alone to starve. But down
the path old Jack, the crow, came hop
ping briskly to perch on the lads
shoulder.
Its all right, Jacky." whispered
Pete bravely. II am going. but / will
take you along with me. 1 don't own
ANYTHING in the world except my pole
and you'll will put your little barre!
on M, back too so you, at least, Will
nave something in which to sleep.
So with the fishing pole in his haEd,
the small barrel dangling from his BACK
and the crow sitting on his shoulder,
Pete set out down the path in the gath |
ering dusk of the late afternoon. The
road he took led towards the great !
Black Forest, but he had not gone far |
before he heard the sound of galloplng |
hoofs and a herald swept up. He was
clothed in red velvet trimmed with |
gold, and rode prancing white morse. |
at his lips was a silver bugle on which |
ne was blowing briskly.
