her to eat"
What? Not a thing" laughed
Uncle Wiggily, as he saw Mrs.
Stubtail coming slowly up the front
walk why, it seems to me there
are lots of things down in the
cellar"
Yes, but I should have some
cakes to offer her with a cup of
tea" went on Nurse Jane, who had
taken off her apron to get ready
to go to the door and let Mrs. Stub
tail in. Il have been telling her
about my cream puffs, and here l
haven't a one baked"
Never mind! l think Mrs. Stub
tail would just as soon have a bit
of strawberry pie. or some lollypop
salad" said Uncle Wiggily. as his
muskrat lady housekeeper went to
answer the door.
NO, 1 ought to have cream puffs,"
Nurse Jane said, over her shoulder.
II have been promising the bear
lady some cream puffs for the
longest time and-Oh, how glad l
am to see you!" she went on in a
louder voice, as she opened the
door.
Uncle wiggily stayed back in the
kitchen.
Women folks. whether they're
muskrats or bears, are funny"
thought the bunny. Just as if it
made any difference about cream
puffs! Still 1 suppose Nurse Jane
wants to show how we'll she looks
after me, and what good things she
gives me to eat-cream puffs among
them. They are good. 1 wonder
how they are made?"
As Uncle Wiggily said this he
happened to see, hanging over the
sink, a recipe book, that
told how to take spots out of polka
dot dresses, and how to mark the
crosses on hot buns for Easter.
Maybe it tells how to make cream
puffs," thought the bunny gentle
man. "If it does, and Nurse Jane
and Mrs. Stubtail stay in the parIor,
1 could, Just for a surprise.
make the puffs myself. Thsn
could wink sat Nurse Jane, she could
come out and get them, and pass
them to Mrs. Stubtail with tho tea,
and everything would be lovely.
I'll try it,"
So Uncle Wiggily looked in the
cook book to see how to make cream
puffs. 1t was quite hard, and whom
the bunny had finished reading he
leaned against the table.
Il don't believe I'd better try to
make those cream puffs," thought

What S in a Name?
By Mildred Marshall.
ELLEN.

Very few people know that Ellen
may be spelled EIlin and still re-
main the same charming name
which signifies a light" or "redi-
ance.' In these days of affectation
when Ediths turn into Edythes
over night and Alice becomes Alys,
It is interesting to discover that
even the somewhat simple name of
Ellen is capable of adaptation.
The name comes from the Greek
root Ele which was first used in
the name Of the moon deity Selene.
From Ele again sprang the most
noted Of all Greek names, Helene,
from which Ellen is directly derived.
The latter name made its first ap-
pearanCe in Scotland where the pro-
nunciatfon caused the H to be
dropped from Helene.
In Wales. EIlin was adopted in
place Of Helene. 1t came into be-
ing through the Eglwys Ilan, the
church Of Helen, which was greatly
revcred by the insular Kelts. Ellen
has achieved almost as great popu-
iarity in this country as her prede-
ressor Helen. Her vogue was great
ly increased by Sir Walter Scotts
-harminE poem, The Lady of the
AXE Many English celebrities
have borne the name, among them
the greatest of English actresses,
Ellen Terry.

but she resolutely suppressed 1t.
She had known intuitively from
the first that though the loss of
the son and nephew of the family
had been viewed as calamitous
event, the possible removal OF his
convenient car and his availability
as a chauffeur was no less to be
deplored.

glance around to assure her that
they were unobserved.

claimed. Il wonder what she's do

AS if in response to call, Mrs
Gibson turned her head and looked

Daily Horoscope

Astrologers read this as an unim-
portant day. Early in the morning
Venus is in benefic aspect, but later
Uranus is slightly adverse.
Women at this time will project
their ideals upon the public mind.
1t is predicted. and they are likely
to have much success, especially in
the West.
This is a lucky day for bringing
together men and women in social
entertainments. Summer resorts
should profit under this direction of
the stars.
There is a sign that seems to fore
cast much Irritation in which men
will not be sincere. Uranus is in a
place believed to encourage decep-
tion.
The aspect read as presaging
Irritation is also held to influence
all dealings between men and
women. In public matters this may
cause women to believe that they
are accomplishing much when men
really are merely pretending to CO.
operate with them.
While the sway is moderately
good for motion pictures and other
amusements there is prophecy of
changes IN "nlCn reform OTBdnlZd-
tions will be successful in gaining
much control.
Socialistic agitation in connection
with public lands is foretold and
there will be widespread interest in
new areas in which settlers will be
scientifically aided, or will at least
receive some sort of practical direc-
tion.
The discovery of an elixir of
youth. or a manner CT treatment
that prevents the manifestation Of
age is prognosticated.
Venus is in a place favorable for
commercial relations with foreign
powers.
South Africa has entered a period
of great prosperity and it will at
tract many Investors from this
country, the s2ers predict.
Persons whose birthdate it is
should keep their business well in
hand. The year may bring many
changes.
Persons whose birthdate IL is may
have lives in which they experience
many phases of prosperity. These

Uncle Wiggily cut off some leaves

a leaf, and in this hole he put a
piece of maCaroni. which was hol-
low like pipe stem. Putting his
lips to the other end of the hollow

as hard as he could blow. In a
moment the plant leaf. being rub

man. Now I'll just slip in some
sugared cream and we'll have
cream puffs as good as never was. "
Uncle Wiggily blew up some more
of the thick green leaves of the
rubber plant. Then he mixed some
whipped cream and sugar in a bowl
while Nurse Jane and Mrs. Stubtajl
were talking.
Uncle Wiggily put the white,
sweet. frothy cream inside the green

some tea. He put everything on a

Are your reason and your emo
tion doing teamwork or are they
going off at a tangent with a re-
sultant wear and tear on the ner-
vous system that is pulling you to
pieces? If you do not know, stop
and find out.
An emotion tires the organism
particularly the nervous system -
more than any amount of physical
or Intellectual work. How freuuent-
ly we hear that some one was
weak with fright" or shaking
with anger" and it is literally true.
The irritation and ill humor that
result from having unCongenial per-
sons about us make inroads on our
nerve control and do untold dam
age. Even the virtues, such as love
and sympathy. il unguided. will
lead to emotional excess which is
one of the most extravagant forms
of nervous expenditure.
The mischief lies in our mode of
reaction to emotional stimuli An
unpleasant emotion must be re-
placed with a happy one. Reason
must come to the rescue, the thing
must be thought out" and a de

even more injurious than giving

At all costs forget the disagree
able things. Read a book, take a
walk, change your immediate en-
vironment il possible. Fill your
mind with pleasant things so there
will be no room for unpleasant
memories. By learning to forget.
the memory has fewer things to re-
