squeaked Jillie. as she dropped a little
Of the boiling candy into cup OF cold
water, and watched IL get hard, That's
how you tell when candy is done,
Yes, it's all ready. said the little
mousie girl. "Will you help me, Uncle
Wiggily?"
Surely" answered the rabbit gem
tleman So he poured the hot candy
out on creased tin pans. The grease
stopped the candy from sticking. The
pans, full of candy, were set out on
the back porch to cool and soon 1t was
ready to pull. l mean the candy was
ready to pull--not the back porch.
Uncle Wiggily and each one OF his
animal friends, was given chunk OF
the molasses taffy, Everyone buttered
his paws, so the candy would not stick,
Now everybody pull" cried Jillie.
So they all pulled the taffy, stretch
ing 1t out as far as they could, putting
the ends together and pulling them out
again.
After a while some of the animal boys
and girls became tired Of pulling candy
and they went into the other room to
dance. But Uncle Wiggily and Grand
pa Goosey who also had been invited,
stayed in the kitchen with Jillie and
pulled and pulled.
Lets sit down a while, said Grand
pa Goosey, and he and Uncle Wiggily
sat down, But they kept on pulling
the candy, even sitting In chairs.
All Of sudden there was puff OF
smoke and something blazed up on the
stove
ooh! Oh! Oh" squeaked Jillie. II
forgot and left some molasses in the
nan on the stove, and now it's on fire
oh, the house will burn down! Quick,
Uncle Wiggilyl Help me save it'
Uncle Wiggily tried to run to the
sink and get some water for the baz-
ing molasses But he couldn't get up!
He was stuck fast to his chair by the
sticky niolasses candy someone had left
there.
"oh. what shall do? can't get up"
cried the bunny. twisting and turning.
"I'll save the house" quacked Grand
pa Goosey, Quickly he took big water
melon from the ice box and threw II
on the stove. And the water from the
melon put out the fire, and do damage
was done and no one was burned, Then
Mrs Longtail poured some other water
at the place where Uncle Wiggily was
stuck fast to the chair, and soon he
could get loose.
But there was quite some excitement
for a time, and Sammie Littletail. who
had left the chunk of nolasses on the
chair said he was sorry. Then the
candy was ready to eat, after 1t had
been pulled enough, and everybody said
1t was just fine And they all declared
that Grandpa Goosey was very brave
to put out the fire with the water
melon

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1919.
AStrologers read this as an uncer-
tain day. While the Sun and Mercury
are in benefit aspect, Saturn and
Uranus are adverse.
1t Is rule under which to seek ap-
pointments, but those that are politi-
cal may be subject to delay or to criti-
cism.
There is a prophecy that positions of
high place will be made vacant before
the new year and these will be filled
only after the most bitter competition
This sway should be fairly favorable
to the plans Of men who rule or hold
offices of great responsibility. The
president should benefit,
The planetary direction is not a
promising one for Industrial peace.
Tendencies that are menacing to the
welfare OF the nation will develop
rapidly after the first cold weather, the
seers declare.
Uranus is In a place read as en-
couraging to riots and revolutions and
there IL sign held to indicate physical
violence that causes serious bloodshed.
This sway Of Uranus Is believed to
affect thinkers with unrest and to in
spire them to encourage uprisings
among workmen everywhere. Women
are peculiarly affected by this sway,
the seers declare.
The conjunction of Mars and Saturn
next month is read to foreshadow re-
ligious troubles. Bitter controversies
that will extend to politics are indi-
Gated.
Switzerland viii become subject to
planetary direction next month which
is likely to bring about a national
crisis. Serious difficulties are presaged
for the European republic
Danger of railway accidents, long
predicted for the autumn, will increase
as the autumn advances. Strikes that
affect the safety Of travellers seem to
be foreshadowed by the stars.
There is a prophecy, that hospitality
to royalty may precede serious diplo-
matte complications with the visitors

Persons whose birthdate 1t is have
the augury of very successful year.
but they should pursue established lines
of activity.
Children born on this day are likely
to be industrious and respected. These
subjects of Libra usually meet many
difficulties In business affairs and sue
coed best when employed.

lying thought is that victory was
made possible by the combined ma
tons of the world and accordingly
it was felt that only combination of
coiors would adequately describe
victory" in dress. The combination
of navy and Mikado color, called vic
tory, was designed as combination
symbolizing peace and victory. The
colors do not have to be blended into
a, single shade. but, instead, can be
worn in combination For instance. a
navy blue dress may be piped with
Mikado very effectively and combined
in many ways in millinery or can be
worn separately or combined in one.
