The Wisdom of Mrs. Gobbler.

Everything had happened just as
Reddy Fox had guessed. No sooner had
he started for home in a rage after his
failure to catch Mrs. Gobbler than she
had made a wide circle and hurried
back to the Green Meadows. where she
had left her precious brood. AS she
hurried out from the edge of the Green
Forest her eyes glistened with pride.
Though she looked this way and looked
that way not a sign of a young COB
bier was to be seen. 1t was as II she
was the only living creature anywhere
about Her children had minded her
absolutely.
Quit, quit" she called softly.
Instantly twelve homely, half-grown
youngsters appeared as if by magic
Swiftly she counted them. All were
there Each one had f1attened himself
or herself down in the grass at her
alarm when Reddy Fox had first ap-
peared and not one had moved since
Mrs Gobbler wasted no time.
Hurry" she said sharply. as she led
the way back to the Green Forest.
THAT Fox may wake up and suspect
he will be sure to come back here.
So the twelve youngsters hurried
after Mrs. .Gobbler as she led the way
into the Green Forest; not one Jagged
behind. Straight to one Of their safest
secret hiding places she led them and
not until then did she breathe easily.
There she told them. as she had often

has fewer disadvantages than any other
kind of topcoat produced this season.
The fabric is a dull. heatherlike, pur-
pie homespun, and. as the artist said
who drew the sketch, this cloth still
has clinging to it the fascinating odor
reminiscent of the peat beds in which
it was dried To those who dearly love
the long stretches of English moorland,
the heather-covered wastes of Scotland
and the long, purple peat bogs of Ire
land. there is in this topcoat an appeal
to homesickness.
The color is so indefinite that it will
not clash with any kind of costume
worn beneath it. The long, swinging
lines nearly cover the skirt. and they
lift up bit in back and swing farther
down in front. There are immense
pockets with gray squirrel tabs, and the
high. position collar is finished at it's
edge with a band of gray squirrel. A
few buttons, a bit of dull purple braid
and the coat is finished.

told them before. of the dangers that
surrounded them and of the need of IN
slant and absolute obedience. And be-
cause they had just seen for them
selves how obedience had saved their
lives each resolved always in the future
to obey absolutely. And each was filled
with great admiration for their
mother because of the clever way she
had fooled Reddy Fox.
This will be the last of the grass
hoppers for a while any way said
Mrs. Gobbler. That Fox will hang
around the Green Meadows most of the
time now and I wouldn't be able to
fool him again that way We must
go somewhere else now for our food.
You children are big enough for other
food now and can eat seeds and ber-
keep away from the Green Meadows
and hunt for our food where Reddy
Fox will not be likely to look for u.s.
So late that afternoon Mrs. Gobbler
led her brood through the Green For
est over to the edge Of the Old Pas
ture. where there were many seeds
and berries. and to their delight the
youngsters found that they could eat
this food and it was quite as delicious
as grasshoppers. And while Mrs. Cob
bier kept watch they filled their crops
until they would hold no more.
Meanwhile Reddy Fox was doing
what wise Mrs. Gobbler had expected
he would do He had gone back to the
Green Meadows. and. securely hidden
was watching and hoping for the young
gobblers to appear. The next day and
the next day he did the same thing
He spent most of his time hanging
around the edge of the Green Meadows,

Built of English Fabrics.

The New York shops have burst out
into blaze of originality and color
with these new topcoats. They are
made of sturdy English fabrics, when
they're not of duvetyn or velour
The smart ones are cut exactly on the
lines of the English coats for men. The
shoulders are comfortably wide, and the
hem would flare in the bell-shaped
manner if it were not that the seams
are so arranged and the fullness so un-
stiffened that the fabric falls against
the figure
One can see comfort staring out from
every inch of this coat. 1t may have
the defect of heaviness, for many of
these English suitings are not easily
supported by a pair of slender female
shoulders, but judicious selection will
eliminate this disadvantage, and the
tailors will soon see that thin home
spuns can be carried with less weari-
ness than the closely woven, thick
cloths that the British shops have Of
fered for a half century.

often of some eurried dish chutney and
fruit and can easily be carried on trays
to the place where it is to be eaten.
Apparently these tifin trays were
hrst used for this light repast. At any
rate they serve admirably for a light
luncheon or breakfast table for the
small household. They may be had in
various sizes. one that is suitable for

section that is fifteen inches across.

A Woman Is As Old As
She Looks

A man may be considered young at 60 If
he feels and looks well. A woman wrinkled
at 30 or 86 is invariably considered old.
Wrinkles are woman's heritage. but that is
no reason why their annoying appearance
cannot be prevented. All that 10 required
is a little attention. Stop in at o'Donnell's
Drug Store. Peoples Drug Company. or any
