On nippy mornings a heavier break fast than the one of fruit and toast and coffee has a decided appeal.
 Corn meal can be used for pam cakes, mullins, breads and the all ways popular mush. Breakfast dish es of corn meal are nourishing ana appetizing and easy to prepare
 There are wbite and yellow meals and meals of course and fine milling. In certain sections of the country the corn is parched before grinding This meal makes most delicious fried nush, but is not so good in mullins. A very coarse meal should be mixed with flour when making pancakes, breads. or mullins. The baked dish made of all corn meal would be too crumbIy to eat comfortab bly.
 Corn Muffins
 One-fourth cup butter. 7 table spoons sugar, egg, cup milk. l1z cups flour, F cup corn meal, tea spoons baking powder, F teaspoon salt.
 Cream, butter and sugar, Add egg well beaten and mix thoroughly. Mix and sift ingredients and add to corn meal. Add dry mixture to first mix ture alternately with milk. Bake In buttered gem pans for twenty-five minutes in a hot oven.

Too Old At Forty?
BY MIME. MoREAu

PARIS-Forty. and you're settling down, resignedly accepting the fact that you're getting old?
 You don't qnite like it, but you feel there isn't any alternative?
 But there is, there really is.
 Just keep freshness of outlook that's all.
 It's only when habits become ob stinately fixed and when the mind refuses to accept new ideas that any woman can truthfully be called old, and that is only then that her face settles into those year revealing lines.
 Simply decide that you are not too old at 40 to embark on new enter prises
 Just suppose you've always wanted to take music lessons, but there have always been too many household du- ties; then now that you're 40 and your young blood is safely in school, begin studying music. Of course. you will never learn to play really we'll but you'll learn a lot of interesting things, and keeping interested keeps you young
 Or have you, always had pen chant for languages? Then study one. Of course you'll never be a teacher

Yes. sir. that is what that footprint in the mud meant. Paddy knew it just as well as if Old Man Coyote had told him so. That was supply in the daytime. Usually he works at night, and he knew that Old Man Coyote knew it.
 Hell try To catch me then" thought Paddy. "so I'll do my work on land now and fool him."
 The tree he was cutting began to sway and crack. Paddy cut out one more big chip and then hurried away to a safe place while the tree fell with a crash.
