Where Have the
Feathers Gone?

Now that ostrich feather fans are
giving way to those of other ma
terials, where have the ostrich feath-
ers gone?
That is not a very difficult question
to answer. They have gone to deco
rate all sorts of accessories-not only
dress accessories, but the little OBJ
jects that go to adorn woman's bed
room or boudoir as we'll.
For one thing, there is the hair
comb with ostrich f1ues fastened in
the top. This is most graceful adj
jupct TO the couture. The slightly
curling flues wave with the motion of
the head and add just the right touch
of color to the hair.
Then there are ostrich feathers
used on the elaborate silk-covered
cushions for the boudoir. There are
tufts and rosettes of these ostrich
feathers in all the brilliant colors of
the rainbow.

Rusty Becomes Envious.
Envy not what others have:
'Tis foolish, futile. vain.

Mrs. Grouse.
Rusty the Fox Squirrel had made up
his mind that he didn't like snow. In
the first place, he couldn't run about
as he liked to do. The snow was too
sort for him to get about much except
ing in the trees. Then. too. it wasn't
easy to find those fat hickory nuts he
had buried under the leaves in the fall.
He had to dig down through thu. snow
to get them. and he didn't like this at
all. 1t meant a lot Of work 1or each
nut
he spent much Of his time in his snug
home in the hollow branch Of certain

Grouse. Terror the Goshawk had not
been back since Mrs. Grouse had
escaped him by plunging into the snow
out, but his patience was almost gone
when she finally did burst out just as
he had seen her do once before.
This time. as before, she few up in
tree, but after making sure that all was
safe she flew down and began to walk
she seemed to have no difficulty. and this
caused Rusty to open his eyes very wide.
You see. she didn't sink in as he did.
He couldn't understand it at all. He
wasn't as well acquainted with her as
was Peter Rabbit. Peter could have told
him just why 1t was.
At last Rusty's curiosity prompted
him to ask her how it was she could
walk about SO easily without sinking
in. "Oh," replied Mrs. Grouse. Il have
my snowshoes! !"
"You have your what?" exclaimed
Rusty.
My snowshoes." replied Mrs. Grouse.
ct don't know what I would do without
them. They are the incest things when
the snow is soft like this. 1t is too bad
you haven't some"
She held up one foot. and Rusty saw
that between the toes were little rows
Of horny points growing out from the
toes. When she put her foot down these
little points spread out and kept her
from sinking in, as she would nave zone
had her toes been as smooth as they
were in summer.
