As Striped ehipmunk had told
Peter Rabbit. ne had planned to start
work on a new storehouse that very
morning. storehouse for winter sup
plies. That was one reason he was
So happy. No one knows better than
does Striped Chipmunk how great is
the joy of honest work, especially of
work you like to do and can do well.
So, instead of worrying and fretting be-
cause he had that work to do. Striped
Chipmunk was glad Of it. Instead of
putting it Off to the last minute. as Pc
ter Rabbit would have done, he could
hardly wait to eat breakfast he was so
eager to start digging.
He knew just where he wanted that
new storehouse, and he had planned
very carefully just where he would
start in digging for it. 1t was to be
the biggest and best storehouse he
ever had made. When it wasrdone he
would have the fun of filling it. Peter
Rabbit would have called it work, but
Striped Chipmunk called it fun.
But the best made plans of Chip
munks and men often are upset in the
twinkling OF an eye. as it were. Just
as Striped Chipmunk was ready to
dive down between the stones of the
old wall and start work a raindrop
That raindrop was the beginning of
the upsetting of Striped Chipmunk's s
plans. That storehouse wasn't to be
built where he had planned 1t.

nose he jumped up on a stone of the

QUESTIONS AND, ANSWERS.
Hammertoe.
Please tell me some Of the causes Of
hammertoe. Can toes thus deformed
be Strengthened, or Is 1t better to have
them amputated? Is. F.)
Answer.-The only cause know for
hammertoe is the wearing Of shoes
that are, too short or too narrow
(pointed) or both. Usually hammertoe
may be Strengthened by dividing the
shortened tendon under the skin and
retaining the toe in an extension
splint for a period Of ten days or two
weeks. Any good doctor can do this,
with local anesthesia.

you are not exhausted at the end Of a

Active and Passive Perspiration.

ACLAEC duU ( oSSltc 1cISp1IALlOu.
Popular misinterpretation of medi-
cal procedure accounts for the fallacy
that one can sweat poison or accumu-
lated waste matters out of the body.
The amount of poison or waste
matter excreted in the amount of
sweating you or l would care to do
in day is scarcely worth consider
excreted by way Of the kidneys, in
testines and lungs Anyway, it is not
so much question of how much of
such poisons or waste matters we ex-
crete through the emunctories: it is a
question of how completely we can
in the body.
Sweating is good thing, however
Few of us do enough sweating for
the good of our health. Somehow
there is a silly NOTION that sweating
is vulgar or unrefined; that is. active
sweating. The same sad specimen
that harbors that notion generally
imagines that passive sweating, as in
Turkish bath, is not only a fashion,
able but also a beneficial Indulgence
The benefit. if any, is psychological,
not physical. Passive sweating elm
mates even less poison from the body
than active sweating does Active
sweating is the kind you attain
Active sweating is good because it
is pretty sure indicator of increased
meta bolism, which means more CONF
plete oxidation or more thorough
combustion. more life. Every one who
is not physically disabled or restricted
to rest by the order of his physician
should manage to do some active.

Some people like to term this catch

to such description, if only they would
limit the term to such a state. Sud

The Ahnds, natives of Jaum. h. dia, are among the most skilled ani- nal trackers in the world, according to R. G. Burton, writing in the Field They track bears, panthers and other jungle creatures by a mere shadow of a footprint and also by marking, system of watching.

 The Ahnds often track bears acrosSS solid rock, where the creatures claws scratching the surface, leave a mark. The panther's tread is so soft that no impress is made, save where the ground is soft enough to take the pug of the pussyfOOt, and yet they track these wary animals when they show near the village.

hlphonse and CASTOR act yesterday
n the matter of politeness in swap
ping titles. The crack Baltimore City
College basketball team remained in

from the Mckinley Manual Training

championship
While the Baltimore lads were
winning a title here. the Central High

ond time in succession the South At

margin in the George Washington

tournament final. The Baltimoresns
turned the trick by a score OF 26 to II.
over in Baltimore a the Baltimore
Athletic Club pool. Central got in
enough wins to take the title from
city College. Friends. Gilman and six
other scholastic teams.
Central annexed thirty-four points

None Of the other Baltimore teams
appeared in the class with Poly or
Central High School
Here in Washington the basket
hall fans were given a rare treat in
the final Of the South Atlantic cham
piOnship basketball battle between
Baltimore City College and Technical
High.
The game was fast from start to
finish and the Bsltimoreans won on
their merits. There is a question in
the minds OF the followers OF basket
ball here as to whether Tech would
have made a better showing with
Parker, Guide and Supplee in the game.
The contest drew out the best
basketball that the teams displayed
/ in the three days OF competition. The
visiting five showed rare judgment
in dribbling and passing and was
never in danger OF defeat through
