But Prickly Porky was awake, and
as he climbed a tree for his break

gan to eat he stopped to look at the
beauty of the Green Forest In its won
derful sparkling white coat Ana as
he looked, who should come along but
Jumper the Hare, who was also from
the Great Woods. Prickly Porky would
not have seen him but Jumper was
feeling SO very happy that he was
kicking up his heels and doing other
foolish things as he came jumping
along. You see his coat was just as
white as the snow, and when he sat
still he looked like nothing but little
heap of snow.

After Jumper the Hare had gone

he felt the Christmas spirit. AS he
ate he kept watching for some one
to whom to extend Christmas wishes.

Then, perhaps because he couldn't help
it for the joy in his own heart, he
suddenly leaned down and grunted,

Reddy was too surprised to speak
right away. You see no one else had
wished him a Merry Christmas. 1t

BEWARE THE COLD.

1t is quite a possible thing that colds
will increase among women this winter
because Of their more sensible clothes.
Two winters ago. when We all went forth
with our chests exposed to the air, when
many of us wore short-sleeved coats. and
so our arms were covered only with kid,
and when diaphanous blouses were the
rule, with short coats and tight skirts
which gave few thicknesses Of fabric
about the body and hips-we didn't hear
of many colds. did we? Perhaps few
women contracted pneumonia because OF
their thin garb; but on tho whole It Is
probable that colds were fewer than
usual.
But this winter we go to luncheon at a
restauran MT with a full-skirted. full-coated
suit on We leave the high fur collar
fastened most Of the time. The long,
fur-edged sleeves keep our arms hot and
are in good condition to contract a
cold. 1t will be interesting to see how
this theory works out. There are always
those who arise and blame womens
clothes for all the ills Of fiesh-and they
have a pretty good case against the un-
necessarily bundling coats Of this winter
Colds are one of the banes OF modern
life. Perhaps our ancestors were as SUD
ject to them as we are, but perhaps the
harder life they were necessarily used to
made them better able to resist colds.
For it is doubtless a fact that the In
tense heat of our modern houses ana
business offices, shops and factories.
accounts for many of our colds. We
get overheated in the house: we often
perspire, even in the coldest winter
days, in rooms with a temperature of
rs. Then we go; into the cold outdoor
air and catch cold
Fresh air, not overheated, Is very
good preventive of colds. If your house
is well aired, and If a temperature Of
6S is maintained most of the time, you
will run little chance of getting cold
at least in your own house. You can
not regulate the temperature of other
peoples houses.
If you keep yourself in good condi-
tion by walking in the open air every
day you will put yourself in condition
to throw off colds. A good circulation
and blood purified by good air will do
much to help you fight off colds.

decided flare at the bottom of the
coats.
High collars, concealing chin and
ears, are undoubtedly smart, although
the new fiat shawl collar of fur gives
evidence of the fact that those who
consider the welfare of their throats
have made wiser choice in selecting
