dark, they might like it in Wood
vile." %
SO off to Woodville they trotted,
and under the tree where Mr.. Owl
lived they began their music.
When Mr.. Owl heard the terrible
noise outside, he ducked under the
clothes and hid, for what was after
him he could not think.
But after a while, as nothing hap
Dened but the noise, Mr.. Owl pOked
out his head, and then got up. But
instead of getting out of the right
side Of his bed, as he first started to
do he got cut this time on the wrong
side, which made him very cross.
He ran 10 the window and threw it
IN with a bang, and Tom Kitten and
Bah Rabbit were sure this time they
were to get a mouse or radish.
Each held up his hat and said:
"Pity two poor orphans and give us
something"
'I'll give you something" said Mr.
Owl, for he was cross when he went
to the window, but when he saw who
it was he was crosser than ever.
MIR. Owl did not wait to dress. He
flew right out of the window just as
he was, in his night cap and slippers,
and down he pounced upon the two
orphans.
He carried them up to his window
and there is no knowing what would
have happened if the window had
been large enough for Mr.. Owl and
Tom Kitten and Bah Rabbit to get
through all at once, but it wasn't, and
Mr.. Owl, thinking Tom Kitten was a
rabbit and could not get away, he sat
him down on a limb of the tree until
he could put Rah Rabbit inside.
No sooner did he let go Of Tom
Kitten than away he went down the
tree and off at his best running speed.
| Old Mr. Owl was so surprised that
he dropped poor Bah Rabbit, and the
moss under the tree was thick, and
| so when he struck it Bah Rabbit
jumped up pretty quick and ran hip
perty-hop-leap away from around Mr..
Owls home.
Tom Kitten and Bah Rabbit had q
very hard time explaining how they
tore their clothes. and to punish them
| their mothers made them stay in bed
all the next day, and you may be sure
| that neither of them ever again want
ed to play orphans.

"Come along with me. | am sure
we can get lots of things" said Tom
Kitten.
Off they ran up to the farm over
the hill, and hanging in the barn they
found an old fiddle with one string
and a drum with a hole in it.

saken if we want everyone to give US
things said Tom. It'll make hole
in my coat and you tear your stock
ing"
Oh, such a sight as those two crea-
lures were when a little later they
went along the road playing the old
fiddle and the drum.
But the mice or the radishes did not
come, as they thought. Instead they
made such bad music that all the cats
in Catville threw tin cans after them,
and by night time they were two very
hungry and tired little fellows.

THE COOKIE-LADY.

She is gentle, kind and fair,
And there's silver in her hair
She has known the touch of sorrow
But the smile of her is sweet;
And sometimes it seems to- me
That her mission is to be
The gracious cOokie-lady
To the youngsters of the street
All the children in the block
Daily stand beside the crock
Where she keeps the sugar cookies
That the little folks enjoy,
And no morning passes DER
That tapping at her door
Doesn't warn her of the visit
OF a certain little boy.
She has made him feel that he
Has a natural right to be
In her kitchen when she's baking
Pies and cakes and ginger bread,
And each night to me he brings
All the pretty, tender things
About little by-gOne children
That the cOokie-lady said.
Oh, dear, cOOkie-lady sweet
May you beautify our street
With your kind and gentle presence
Many more glad wears, I pray;

Everyday Luncheons.

With the convenient, canned, ready
to-serve soups one may have variety
of soups or sauces prepared in short
time. The cans of chopped vegetables
which include celery, turnip, carrot
and parsley, if added to a pint or more
of broth, provide a tasty vegeta-
bic soup. Just the preparation of that
number of vegetables is worth the
price Of a can to a very busy house
wife, and one always lacks some vege-
table flavor, even with good supply
on hand. Onions and potatoes are
SO commonly in use that they are not
included. One can holds enough vege-
tables for two good meals for small
family. Soups are in order the year
round and a variety is always en-
joyed.

Skin Eruptions

c. Have a son who has about eight skin eruptions on body which probably are ringworms. What are the causes of same?
 A. It is almost impossible to arrive at a proper conclusion regarding the nature of a skin eruption. Your son may be suffering from ringworm or from one of the many other skin erup- tions which are quite common during childhood. For this reason, I would ad- wise you to consult a skin specialist in order to be properly advised as to the proper thing to dc for this child. Probably one of the most common chronic skin eruptions in children is eczema, which in a large number of l instances is due to some dietary dis l turbances.
