 Now said Jimmy Skunk, you stay right close to me and Reddy Fox won't dare to touch you.'
 Then they started for the dear old brier patch. Peter kept right close to Jimmy Skunk It seemed to Peter that they never would reach the old brier patch. for Jimmy Skunk never hurries. and he wouldn't hurry now. Reddy Fox followed all the way, and all the time calling Jimmy Skunk all the bad names he could think of. When they reached the old brier patch Reddy slunk away growing, I'll get even with you for this, Jimmy Skunk"

 Jimmy Skunk didn't pay the least bit of attention to Reddy Fox. Instead he stuck his head in the doorway of Johny Chuck's house and called to Peter Rabbit. Reddy Fox hopped up and came forward angrily. But he didn't come too near. Oh, my, no! Reddy Fox has a very wholesome re- l spect for Jimmy Skunk, and he took the very best of care not to go too near.
 ''Reddy Fox is out here and he says l he's going to stay until you come out 5

VIOLET sELFRlDeE TO WED

An engagement of international in- terest just has been announced. that of Miss Violet Selfridge. daughter of Gordon Selfridge, London merchant prince. Miss Selfridge is to wed Vii comte De Sibour. a scion of an old French Catholic family.
 Miss Selfridge is widely known in America, for her father was former member of the Chicago firm Of Mar shall Field & Go. It was there he assimilated his knowledge of American department store methods, which en- abled him to introduce that system of merchandising in London. Founding the firm of Selfridge &5 Co. there, he revolutionized the department store business of England. Before the war, he employed 4.000 persons in his store, one of the largest in the city. That Miss Selfridges romance was not without a connection in the nota- bIe business career of her father, is evidenced by the fact that her fianee long has been q clerk in Selfridge S, 1 Company.
 | Two years ago Miss Selfridge was reported engaged to Ripley Wilson,
 then American consul for the port of | London. Chicago relatives of Miss 1 Selfridge, who had made her debut l there, denied the engagement, and 1t never was officially confirmed.

 Do you mean Peter Rabbit ?" Jimmy Skunk looked at Reddy Fox sharply as he spoke.
 Who else should I mean?" replied Reddy. I've been trying ever since last summer to catch him, and now I'm going to stay right here until he comes out if I have to stay all day and all night. And when he does come out, as he will when he thinks I've gone away then" Reddy didn't finish He just licked his lips in such hungry way that he didn't need to say any thing.
 Jimmy Skunk sat down on Johnny Chuck's doorstep and scratched his | head thoughtfuIly.
