Those Excess Gifts.

Christmas is just forty-one days IN

a bottle of eau de cologne is good TOT
just SO many zephyrs. any way you

You can't preserve the hole in your

Nature has made Christmas a great
reha bilitating period II all our reia
watches. neck scarfs. cum buttons anu
fancy vests, we'd get sore and wish
they were in the draft age
Those stereotype gifts you can al,

they've come-and gone.
But what of the luxuries we nave 70

probably playing a round Of golf with
tho moth balls. and next Christmas Is
only 1924 days away. Meanwhile you
are hoping one of your grandchildren
will some time have enough leisure to

How about that tri-colored, self

That Christmas jewelry-where is it?
Has It turned green around the edges,
or has the servant given it to her inn

There's a big chance now to drag
yourself away from some of your
Christmas excess baggage by slipping

thermore. Shadows keen nose would
soon find Robbers tracks and follow
them to his most secret hiding place.
So Robbers only thought was to get
away from Farmer Browns barn, and
with Mrs. Robber at his heels he raced
out into the barnyard without the least
idea where he was going. Like most
wrongdoers, Robber hates the light of
day. He hates it because he fears to
be seen. No sooner was he out in the
sunlight than he wanted to get under
cover again, almost as much as he
wanted to get away from Shadow the
Weasel. In a flash he remembered q
hole under the porch of Farmer
Browns house. It offered the only
shelter he could think of, and he VAST
ed no time in getting to it and out of
sight All the time Mrs. Robber was
right at his heels.
once under the porch they turned and
sauatted side by side. where they could
look out and see If Shadow was follow
ing them. The look on their sharp faces
was partly of fear and partly Of rage
Their lips were drawn back SO as to
show their teeth In most unpleasant
way. and their small black eyes fairly
burned with anger, yet all the time
they were shaking with fear.
