UNCLE WIGGnY AND THE FUDGE CANDY.

Now, how do you make fudge?" he
asked Jennie, while Mrs. Chtpmunk
went TO csll IN Mrs. Wibblewobble, the
duck lady.
"Oh, you boil the chocolate and sugar
and butter all in in a pan on the stove, 70
/ said Jennie, and then you set 1t out on
the porch to cool, and then you eat il"
What? Eat the porch" cried Uncle
Wiggily. letting his pink nose do a big
twinkle this time.
mo, eat the fudge, of course" said
| Jennie.
So she and Uncle Wiggily made the
fudge, and very good il smelled. and
very nice 1t looked, as it was poured
out in a pal to cool.
why, we have enough for two pan
fuls!" cried Uncle Wiggily, when the
! first pan was filled.
Then we'll make one for you to
take home to Nurse Jane Fuzzy
WuzZy," said Jennie.
So they did this, and while the fudge
was cooling Uncle Wiggily old Jennie
a little Bedtime Story about how once
Johnnie Bushytail got his tail caught
in a trap, and how Uncle Butter, the
goat gentleman, had to help pull the
squirrel boy loose.
And you should have heard Johnnie
chatter said Uncle WiRgily, and just
then, out near the back stoop, where
the pans of fudge candy had been set
to cool. there came a cry of:
ouch How hot it is! Oh, my paw
is stuck fast, and it feels as If it were
on a hot iron! Oh, wow"
is that Johnnie now, after our
FUDGE" Jennie asked.
ut sounds to me like the old Pip
sisewah." answered Uncle Wiggily. 'Tll
go seei"
The bunny gentleman ran around the
corner of the little house made of rub
her balls. and there he saw the bad old
Pipsisewah hopping around on one leg,
n holding his burned paw up in
the air.
oh, wow" cried the Pipsisewah,
This is no place for me. The next
see that there isn't a pan of hot fudge
bowling and yowling.
What ~happened?' asked Uncle Wig
gily. OF a little bird sitting in a tree.
ooh, the old Pipsisewah tried to
creep softly In the jumping rope house
the back way, to get you answered
the little bird, land before he knew it,
he stuck his paw in the pan Of hot
fudge"
We'll, he didn't hurt the fudge
much" said Uncle Wiggily, and. really,
the Pip hadn't. Then when the candy
was cool Uncle Wiggily ate some, and
so did Jennie and the little bird, and
there was some left for Nurse Jane.
So this teaches all mothers that it is
a good thing, sometimes, to let fudg,
candy be made. And If the dill pickle
doesn't take the pepper hash out for
a swim and make it lose all its tomato
seeds. I'll tell you next about Uncle
Wiggily and the singing frog.

Neptune rules kindly during the
morning hours today, according to as.
troIogy. but Venus, the sun and Jupi-
ter all all In evil aspect later,
During this sway the human mind
Is likely to be peculiarly susceptible to
world conditions and In thought to re-
fleet chaos that dominates nations.
It Is a time TO cultivate a positive,
Cheerful state OF mind and to close the
consciousness to dl%sorganizing or de-
struCtiVe fears.
This should be an auspiclous rule
for persons whose success depends up
on vision and the ability to profit by
foresight.
There is a sign that seems to presage
rise in the prices Of oil n its by-prod-
ucts and experimentation with substi-
tutes.
As Neptune is supposed to have a
sway over persons Of mediumistic ten
denotes, the rule OF the planet Is be-
lieved to be responsible for the recent
Increase OF interest m spirtualism.
Women should be cautious under this
government Of the stars, which Is held
to thwart their best ambitions.
There il a sign supposed to put to
the test the fitness OF women for high
positions OF responsibility. There is
indication Of contest for advance In
salaries and rank where they are
ployed.
II is not a lucky wedding day. al
though it may be fortunate for those
who are subjects Of Neptune, born be-
tween Feb, 10 and March 80.
Jupiter does not encourage business
or commercial ventures while this as
pect prevails.
Persons whose hirthdate II is may
encounter some ~annoyances. hut they
should have a year OF good fortune,
Children born on this day may be
too generous for their own good. These
subjects OF Leo often are careless,
buoyant and exceedingly lucky

BY HOWARD r.. GARIS,

Uncle Wiggily L~ongesrs, the nice
bunny rabbit gentleman, was hopping
along through the woods one day when,
Just as he came close to a little house
made Of corn cobs, he heard a voice
saying:
oh. please. mother. let us make
so good"
ON, I'm afraid you'll make too much
OF an upset in my kitchen" was the
answer. Besides, ! have no chocolate
ana not enough sugar, hardly any but
ter and. what is more, the fire has
gone out TO visit the woodpile!"
My, that's a lot of reasons for some
thing or other" thought Uncle Wiggily
TO himself as he stopped hopping, and
held hiss pink nose from twinkling SO
he could listen better. II hope there
is no trouble here"
He waited a moment. and the first
voice said again:
oh. please let me make some; I'm SO
hungry"
There! I knew there wa trouble!"
said the bunny rabbit gentleman to
himself. Il must see who is hungry
and get them something to eat"
Up he hoped to the little house made
OF lead pencils, and, knocking at the
door. asked:

some one from being hungry? l am

Only l haven't any chocolate, hardly
any sugar, no butter to speak of, and
the fire has gone out visiting the coal
bin"
oh. that's all right" laughed Uncle
Wiggily. II can soon make a fire, and,
as for the chocolate. sugar and other
things, III hop to the seVen-and-eight-
cent store and get them, and Jennie
shall have her fudge"
And you shall have some for help

with Joy. "Ill get the candy pan ready,
Uncle Wiggily, while you go to tho

Uncle Wiggily hoped after the choco-
Ate, and he hoped after the sugar and
hoped back to the little house made
Of shingles, n then he hoped around
until he had a fire built.
