UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE ICE CREAM.

bungalow, and there they found that
Uncle Wiggily and Nurse Jane had
everything in readiness. The sugar.
milk and cream were mixed and put
inside the freezer. Then the freezer
can was set in the wooden tub and
ice and salt packed around it.
Now. you puppy dogs can take
! turns with the crank said Uncle
Wiggily, and Peetie and Jackie were
very glad to do this. They turned
and turned until the crank became
so stiff it would hardly go around
any more. and Nurse Jane said:
The cream is frozen. Now we
must take out the jiggily dasher in
side the freezer and turn it to make
it nice and smooth. You hold down
the can, Uncle Wiggily. while / take
off the top and lift out the dasher."
Uncle Wiggily was just going to
do this when a voice cried
What's going on here? Oh, see.
Making ice cream. Well. I'll take a
raw in this" And out from behind
a porch post jumped the bad Skud-
dlemagoon.
Il love ice cream" howled the
SIX Skuddlemagoon. Next to Uncle
Wiggily's souse | love ice cream!
First I'm going to have some cream
and then I'll nibble some rabbit ear

Stand aside until l take a pawful"'
he said. most impolitely.
Then the Skuddlemagoon thrust
his paw down inside the place in
the tub where the ice and water
and salt were. He thought that
was the cream. I guess.
Right down into the cold, freez-
ing tub of ice the Skuddlemagoon
put his paw and then a funny look
came over his face.
ice cream" he cried. ice
cream! l don't feel any down here.
You're fooling me, that's what you
are! I'll take some souse first and
ice cream afterward" But when
he tried to pull his paw out of the
tub of ice and salt water he couldn't
do IT, for IL was frozen fast to the
bottom.
"Oh, WOW, Wouch!" howled the
Skuddlemagoon, but that's all the
good IL did him. Then Nurse Jane
not being afraid of the bad crea.
ture, who couldn't get loose, lifted
out the tin can filled with frozen
cream and took it in the house.

Osborne was waiting impstiently
in the shadow of the naples a few
yards down the street. There were
no pedestrians; the silence of the
summer night enveloped them.
At sight of Alison. he sprang out
and came to her swiftly, his face
alight.
You did come. you darling" he
whispered. Il was half afraid
you'd get cold feet at the last mo-
ment."
Isn't it deliciously wicked -
whispered Alison, as he tucked her
in the front seat and swung her
bag into the tonneau. "Oh. do be
careful of my bag, 1t has toilet
articles that break easily in it,
Il can't think of anythihg-ex-
cept that I've got you away from
families at last" he said. as he
started the engine and guided the
car into the deeper shadows. I'll
bet not many chaps are as keen as
am about eloping with their own
wives"

weddings, everyone gathers round

to slip off like thieves and were
probably leaving raging families
behind us. Poor mother" she
sighed. Il don't envy her the ses-
sion with Cousin Barbara when she
finds I've gone"
Somebody ought to tell that old
dragon where she gets off" de-
clared Osborne disgustedly. Why
did she take this dislike to me
just because I married you?"
"Oh. it's not personal, I'm sure,
She just has a crouch at the world
in general and she was offended
because Mother and l didn't wire
her the minute we were married
Let's forget her" suggested Os-
borne. Isn't it time that you were
thinking a little bit about me and
a little less about your family"
1t was on the tip Of Alison :
tongue to say: What about your
self?" but she caught herself in
time. Why discuss modes of con-
duct when it Is June and moon
light and Young Love rides at one S
side?
/ I'll make bargain with you,
she agreed aloud, Il won't waste
one moment OF our honeymoon con-
sidering my family, il you'll dc

Fear is one of the symptoms of
loss of nerve control. Sometimes the
fears are definite. at others there is
just an underlined dread. IL one is
overworking or in any manner put
ting the nervous system to a severe
strain il is time to cali halt whe n
any of the fears" begin TO take pos
session of the soul.
One OF the commonest fears. or
obsessions. is the fear of open
places. This is known as agora-
phobia, and persons so afflicted re-
fuse to cross a street unaccompan
led. Others, on the contrary, fear
TO remain in an inclosed space. They
suffer from "claustraphobia." To
this category of abnormal fears be-
longs the fear which is experienced
on ascending a height. Some per-
sons even at very slight elevation,
and when there is no real danger
become very dizzy and feel that they
will fall or will be compelled to
throw themselves over.
Then there is that peculiar dread

cat seems to know intuitively when
there is one on the premises. And
there is the old maid fear of the
burglar under the bed.
These obsessions may be mild or
intense. They should be eliminated
from the minds of otherwise nor
NAL persons, as fear itself is a de-
stroying influence. This is work for
the psychologist. 1t is not enough
to appeal to the patients conscious
reasoning processes as the cause OF
them does not lie there. These pa
tients must be re-educated. They

of suggestion to know that even II
what they fear. should happen it Is
less to be dreaded than to live in a

What I 5 In a Name?
SUSANNA.
By Mildred Marshall.

susanna Is another of the holy
names" with which the Scriptures
abound. Though Ii has been con-
tracted rather generally to Susan,
the proper, form, and the one which
possesses an Interesting history, Is
Susanna. 1t signifies lily and
comes from the ancient Hebrew
name Schuschannahy which. In
sound. more nearly resembles the
French Susanne.
The story of Susanna, related in
the additional chapters of the Book
of Daniel, and repudiated by ST. Je-
rome. has been commemorated In
ballad. tapestry, and painting. The
name also belonged to one of the
holy women of the sepulchre and II
was in the church calendar for two
virgin martyrs who suffered death
in the times of persecution.
The most famous Susanna of his
tory was the lily OF Tifiis,' the
Queen Susanna who was put to
death by the Mahometans for her re-
ligious faith. All the romance and
>Pietsfesqte romance of the early
ages centers in her history.
The English call this name Susan
nah and by a curious coincidence
almost without equal in etymology,
the French, German, Swiss. and
Bavarians agree upon Susanne as a
favorite national name.
The garnet is Susanna's talismanic
stone. 1t promises her true friend
ships and a pleasing personal mag
netism. Thursday is her lucky day
