Peter Rabbits jump over the old
barrel on the edge of the hill was
unexpected to Reddy Fox. In fact,
Reddy was so close on Peters heels
that he had no thought OF anything
but catching Peter lie was run
ming so fast that when Peter made
his flying jump over the barrel
Reddy did not have time to jump
too and he ran straight smack bang
into that old barrel Now you re-
member that that barrel was right
on the edge Of the hill. When Reddy
ran into II he hit it-so hard that
he rolled IL over and. OF course. that
started IL down the hill. You know
a barrel il very rolly sort OF thing
and once il has started down hill
nothing can stop 1t.
II was just so this time. Reddy
Fox had no more than picked him
self up when the barrel was half
way down the hill and going faster
and faster II bounced along over
the ground and every time il hit a
little hummock IL seemed 10 jump
right up in the air And all the
time il was making the strangest
noises Reddy quite forgot the
smarting sore places where he had
bumped into the barrel He simply
stood and stared at the runaway.
"As live" he exclaimed. II be-
lieve there is some one in that old
barrel" There was. You remem-
Der that Jimmy Skunk had curied
up in there for nap. and that
Peter had peeped in and seen him
there. Now Jimmy was awake. very

very much faster than ever he had
moved before since he was born.
And II wasn't al all comfortable.
No, sir. II wasn't at all comforta-
BILE way in which to travel. He went
over and over so fast that II made
him dizzy. First he was right side
up and then wrong side up 81 fast
that he couldn't tell which side up
he was, And every time that old
barrel jumped when II went over a
hummock Jimmy was tossed mp SO
that he hit whatever part OF the
barrel happened TO be above him.

cause he was rolled over and over
so fast he didn't have chance 10

One of the most interesting men

beauty careful consideration told ME
that If you convince her you think
she is beautiful, she will forgive you
anything. Though do not agree
with him to that extent. l do believe
that every woman in her heart
would rather have beauty than any
other asset. Madame de Stael, court
ed favorite Of power that she was,
once said that beauty in woman Is
equal to genius and confessed that
"she would give half her knowledge
for the personal charm of beauty"
This ! have learned since. have
grown up. Men will speak OF wom-
ans intellect with cold indifference
but Of her beauty and charm with
earnest enthusiasm. Even Socrates
acknowledged the power OF beauty
in woman by calling it Tyranny
And Aristotle, who appreciated that
beauty of motion, OF poise, OF spirit
Of mentality were equally as potent
as beauty of face and body, once

And the very fact that in our own
