WHY MIR. FOX MOVED

AIR. FOX had a great many neigh
1V1 bors and he was anxious TO be
friendly with them all. He was sly
and clever, like all his family; but this
time he overdid the matter, as you will
see.
Mrs. Squirrel had new family of
little squirrels, and as soon as Mr. Fox
heard this, over he went to call on her.
"Oh, what handsome babies" ex-
claimed Mr. Fox when he saw the new
squirrels. Your children are the
handsomest in the woods Mrs. Squir-
rel. You may be sure of that" he told
her.
Now. ii happened that on his way
home he was called in to Mrs. Rabbits
house to see her new babies, and Mr..
Fox told her that her children were by
far the prettiest he ever had seen, 1.-THE
very prettiest in the woods, Mrs. Rab-
bit u he told her.
The next day Mr.. Fox heard that
some new little possums had been
brought to Mrs. Possum by the stork,

Whence these lines? We can fancy
the Svelte hero of a musical comedy
waiting them abroad as he "jazzes"
nonchalantly through glittering ranks
of the eternal feminine; we can fancy
a not too-heavily clad chorus respond
ing in a shrill-pitched, syncopation:
He's left his little queen, he's left his
little queen!"
Or we can imagine the lines. merely

Chemically by countless monographs.

And their author? ANY jocularly in

ent day and generation-but hold.
there Is after all a class of beings
above suspicion. For we may be rea-
sonably sure that neither Miss Lowell
nor one of her disciples would indulge
in the infirmity of rhyme.

What's In a Name
ANNA
(Copyright)

Though coming originally from the
same source Anna and Anne are two
very different names. To call a CIR!
bearing the pretty appellative derived
from the Hebrew Chaanach, Anna OF
Anne Unfortunately is a gross error
They are separate names and should
not be used Interchangeable.
Anna was first known as the Roman
goddess of the circling year She wax
confused later with Anne, the com.
panion sister of Dido, whose tragic
end is recorded by Vergil in the
"Aeneid." According to Roman tradi
ton. Anna pursued the faithless Aen
cas- to Italy, after the suicide of Dido,
and there drowned herself in the
river Numicius where she became a
presiding deity.
The Irish have a similar legend to
account for their Anna, the daughter
of the chief of Firbolg race, drowned
herself in the river Life and since
the Irish word for river is Amhain,
the two words became, on English
tongues, Anna Liffey, and were sup.
posed to form the unfortunate lady's
name.
There was also a ST Anna in Byzan-
tium for whom the Emperor Justinian
built a church in $50. Thus Anna be.
came a popular name among Greek
damsels, and daughter of Emperor
Basil married Vladimir, Grand Prince
of Muscovy- Another famous bearer
of the name was Anna Este of Italy,
who brought her title to the House
of Guise.

Anna is the pearl. 1t promises her

How To Have Red Lips!

The girl with red lips and pink
cheeks may be thankful. for both de-
note health-vigorous, forceful, mag
netic health, and while it may be i'm
possible for some to attain owing to
morbid states of health, yet a vast
majority of seemingly healthy young
women and men are almost colorless,
because of a lack of red blood cor
puscles. When the blood is improved
and enriched with these red cor
puscles, the weight increases and
beautiful tint appears on the cheeks,
while the lips assume a healthy red
color Many physicians and beauty
doctors prescribe three-grain hypo-
nuclane tablets which are said to in
variably increase the red blood cor
puscles after a course of treatment
lasting several months. The nervous
system and general health also i'm
prove rapidly. The best apothecary
shops supply this tablet in sealed
packages. advertisement.
