UNCLE WTGGILYS
EVERGREEN 'WREATIIS
BY Howard r. Garls,

care you going far, Uncle Wiggi-
ly?" asked Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuz-
zy one morning, as she saw the
bunny rabbit gentleman starting
out from his hollow stump bunga-
low.
Just far enough to find an adj
venture and come back" answered
Mr.. Longears. MAY ! have the
pleasure of going to the store, or
doing something like that for you,
Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy," .
"Thank you. If you wouldn't
mind stopping in the five and six
cent store and getting me a little
looking glass, I'd be obliged to
you" said the muskrat lady.
81 can't get you very much of q
looking.glass for five, or even sew
en- cents" Uncle Wiggily made an
swer. Better let me get you big
one at the thirteen cent store?"
81 only want little one for SUI
sic LittletaiPs rag doll" spoke
Nurse Jane. "A five cent size will
be just right"
So Uncle Wiggily hoped over
the fields and through the woods
and in not so very long he reached
the five and six cent store and
bought the little looking-glass,
which he put in his pocket. Then
on the bunny gentleman hoped
again, now and then leaning on his

INTERESTING LETTERS FROM
READERS,

f. r. G.--"Here is my recipe for
butter scotch pie-1 cup brown
sugar, butter size of an egg, yolk of
2 eggs, 2 tablespoons flour, l cup
boiling water, and 2 egg-whites.
Cream together the sugar and but
ter; add the egg-yolkS and flour,
mixing well, then add the cup OF
boiling water and cook in a sauce
pan until thick. Flavor with l tea
spoon vanilla and pour into a pre-
viously baked pie shell. Use the
whites of the eggs for a meringue
Whipped up with a pinch of cream
of tartar and ! tablespoon of sugar.
and slip the pie back into the oven
just long enough for the meringue
to brown. Perhaps some of your
readers would like this recipe
A. p. There is hint which
some of your readers may find use
full: Gasoline can be used to raise
the nap on a plush coat that has
become matted. Dip the coat in
gasoline and hang it up out of
doors, brushing it as it dries. Or
wet cloth in the gasoline and rub
the coat with this cloth, then
brush"
NJ. L. BIT noticed in your col
umn not long ago, reply of yours
to an inquirer who signed herself
Garden Lover and who asked
whether or not hollyhock seeds
could be started inside the house,
then set out in warm weather
with the result that they would
bloom the same summer. You re-
piled that, as holyhocks were
hardy plant. they had best be
started out OF doors. But | want
to say that hollyhocks If planted
now Gnside the home) and then
set out later on, will bloom the lat
ter part of the summer. 1t has
been my experience that all kinds
of outdoor flowers and vegetables
can be started in the house with
very few exceptions, and if paper
pots are used (which can be set in
ground without disturbing the
roots) there are no exceptions. l
hope you will pass this on to Gar
den Lover | am fond of holly
hooks, too"

CARDINAL GIBBONS.

life has closed. His fellow churehmen will feel the
blow of his passing most keenly perhaps although
it came in the fullness of time. His going out was
natural as birth.
But in his death the whole country suffers an
irreparable loss. His counsel of wisdom and his
appeal to affections left profound imprint upon
his times, He belonged to the Catholic Church but
he equally belonged to America
If his high position in the church honored him,
he equally honored the position. His was a blame
less and useful life. His ideals were high; his ex-
ample inspiration He still lives for his influence

He reached the five and
six cent store

That will be for him to take to
Nurse Jane"
So the animal children did this,
and Uncle Wiggily in his sleep was
all wreathed up and decorated, so
to speak. Then the hollow stump
school bell rang to call the animal
children back from recess.
Good bye. Uncle Wiggily" they
softly whispered.
The bunny gentleman slept for a
while longer, and, all of a sudden,
he was awakened by hearing a
growl near him. Opening his eyes
he saw the Woozie Wolf glazing at
him. Uncle Wiggily was so sur
prised that he never said word.
He felt funny, too. with those ever
green wreaths on, and didn't know
what to make of It.
The bunny gentleman expected
that the Wolf would jump at him
any moment and nibble his ears,
but, instead of doing this, the saw
age creature said
"Oh. excuse me! I didn't know
you were a carved statue of Uncle
Wiggily. l thought you We're real.
But 1 see you are only a statue,
like George Washington, with
wreaths on. I'll go look for the
real Uncle Wiggily."
Then the Wolf ran away, and
Uncle Wigglly, as surprised as
could be, said to himself:
What made him think I was a
statue? I'll look in Nurse James
glass and see." He pulled out the
little mirror and when he saw the
evergreen wreaths which the ami
NAL children had hung on him in
his sleep the bunny laughed.
We'll well!' he said. ''Those
wreaths, which surely did make
me look like a statue, saved my
ears And if the lamp post will
kindly hop down to the end of the
street to make light so the trolley
car can see to go TO the letter box,
I'll tell you next about Uncle Wig
gily's sock member.

know the subway will be damned
and then it will take them some
time to walk over here. They'll
have to fairly plough their way
through the drifts. l never saw
anything like it,.

Mrs. Randall's apartment, call me
Immediately"
BY eight o'clock I was almost
frantic; and Helen was but little
calmer. Peggy tried to keep up
our spirits by telling us that moth
ing could possibly happen in the
three blocks they had to walk from
the subway; that 1t was only the
probable blockade which was de
laying them.
A Helpful Neighbor.
1t was about half past eight when
we heard a commotion in the hall.
| rushed to the door, and there
was Walter Thurston, covered with
snow, pale and painting from the
exertion, holding Tom on one side,
while the elevator boy held the
other.
ooh, Toni" I gasped. rs he
hurt ?" | asked Walter
mo, only exhausted" he replied
himself speaking with difficulty.
We got Tom in and took off his
wet clothes. Peggy made hot
drinks, and both Walter and Tom
drank thirstily of them. Walter had
dropped Immediately into q big
chair, and closed his eyes. Helen
lowered about him, as she tried to
get him to go up stairs and undress.
He was too tired to move, and only
shook his head. Tom went to sleep
almost Immediately, but Walter
after little explained to us that
he was sure that Tom would be all
right in the morning. That it was
nothing but complete exhaustion.
II stumbled over Tom in a big
drift on the next block" he told
us, 'He had fallen and seemed not
regain consciousness, he told us.
He had fallen many times after
leaving the subway, and had So
used up his strength. He'll be all
right in the morning"
After he had explained how he
found Tom, he and Helen left us.
Peggy went to bed, but l sat long
beside Tom-whom, we had decid-
ed should not be disturbed-thank-
full that he had come back to me.
And | made myself all sorts of
promises as to the things l would
do for him, to make him happy 1t
was nearly daylight when finally
l crawled off to bed, but Tom
didn't waken until noon.

The sun was warm and, though
ii would not be summer for several
months, still the air was warm.
Hopping to a log on which the sun
.shone most brightly, Uncle Wiggily
sat down to rest And before he
knew it he had fallen asleep.
Now, as it happened, this was not
far from the hollow stump school,
where the lady mouse taught the
animal children. And at recess
Sammie and Susie Littletail, john
ME and Billie Bushytail, the SPUR
rels, Jackie and Peetie Bow Wow,
the puppies, and Curly and Floppy
Twistytail, the piggie boys, ran
over to the log and saw there I'm
Gle Wiggily asleep.
oh, let's get him to play tag
with us!' squealed Floppy.
"Oh, no! He's tired" softly
barked Jackie. Let him rest"
81 know what let's do" said Su-
sic. Lets show Uncle Wiggily
how much we love him by making
nice wreath for him, and putting
it on his head as he sleeps. When
he wakes up he'll be all decoratedr
There are no green leaves from
which to make a wreath" objected
Sammie.
1--WE can Irvine one from the
branches of this cedar tree" said
Susie. THAT stays green all win
ter"
Then with whispers of delight,
taking care to make no noise that
might awaken Uncle Wiggily the
animal children made him an ever
green wreath and put it around his
tall silk hat. They also made
wreaths which they placed over
each of his front paws, and then
Susie said;
Lets make an extra wreath and
put it on the ground near him.

The change of schedule on the
Southern suits 'us. admirably. We on
" wish that the train to Columbia
had been moved up an hour or more,
and we would like to- see the train
going by Newberry at 1880 moved
up couple of hours, and then It
would have suited us better to have
had the train from Columbia TO
Greenville in the. afternoon moved
back q little instead of up, but the
change in this schedule is very slight
and we have no kick coming If the
train from Greenville in the, evening
could have been moved up SO as TO
reach Newberry about z o'clock, j
would have been fine. We could then
get the Greenwood afternoon paper.
But we cannot have everything just
as we. would like best, and so We ara
satisfied. AS the train is to reach
Mewbery before 9 o'clock{we suppose
the postofice will put up the mail OF
that train the same evening that it
comes so that those who have lock
boxes may get it that night if they SO
desire.

Newspapers are feeling the def1a-
tiod Of the currency along with all
other lines. Take The Herald and

is holding it's own the advertising COL
umns are almost bare, and we have
to fill sometimes with matter that IS
not entirely new. And we have noslc-

that are in the same boat. For IN
stance, the good old Lexington Dis

advertise it's business. Well, the only
thing is for all of us to bear and for
bear and keep up the smile and all
things will come out right in the end.
And the one thing essential is work,
and that will help more than anything
we know. If you find something to 40
and then do it you are not so easily
subject to the detected spirit. And
there is no use to be 50 particular
about the kind of job so that it is hon

Just after the war of the sixties. They
did not even have anything to eat, and
all the farmers in this section have
something to eat. One man came
along only Monday and said he want

ily thing he could pay with was some
home ground corn meal. We said
send it along ard we will send the

The merchants are not advertising
as usual, because they think the peo-
pie have no money to spend. This IS
the tine to advertise. There is money
to spend. And it is going to be spent.

and then you may find in this section
an all cotton farmer who succeeds,
but as rule even he sooner or late:
is overtaken by disaster.
The only way to regulate the price
of cotton by the grower is to own the
cotton when you make it, and then
you can throw it in your barn and fix
the price and keep it until you get
that price. 1t is yours and it'will save.
But as long as you owe some one. else
for it it is not yours, and you have
very little say about the price you
shall receive for it.
