Little Stories for Bedtime
The Baby Chuck Refuses to Go Home

The Baby Chuck Refuses to Go Home
 Jolly. round. red MT. Sun, rubbing the sleepy winks out of his eyes, smiled at what he saw very early that morning. Down the Lone Little Path marched Jimmy Skunk with his head held high and his big, plumey tail way ing proudly. Behind him 'trotted Unc' Billy Pessum, his coat as rough and tumbled as usual, his keen little eyes twinkling and his sharp, little. old face stretched in a broad grin, which showed all his white teeth. Last of all came Prickly Porky the Porcupine with a splinter of wood sticking out of one corner of his mouth like a toothpick, and rattling his thousand little spears.
 Sammy Jay was the first to see them coming. He had hurried to the edge of the Green Forest at the very first hint of light You see, Sammy knew all about how Jimmy Skunk and Prick ly Porlxy were to try to set Unc' Biily Possum free from the wire covered box in which Farmer Browns boy had kept him a prisoner, and Sammy was dreadfully anxious to know how they had succeeded. As soon as he saw Unc' Billy Possum he knew that they had succeeded, and he hurried to meet them so as to hear all about how It was done.
 "I suppose you left the baby Chuck at Johnny Chuck's house on your way through the Old Orchard" said Sammy.
 Instantly all three looked very grave.
 No" said Jimmy Skunk, slowly, i've didn't We left him up in Farmer Browns dooryard.'
 'sWhat?s screamed Sammy Jay, didn't you set him free?
 Jimmy Skunk and Prickly Porky and 7 Unc' Billy Possum nodded their heads vigorously;
 Skunk. Certainly we did, but he just wouldn't come.''
 .eWouldn't comei" exclaimed Sammy 2 Jay. as if he never had heard of such | a thing. 'why, what under the sur was the matter with him?"
 "I don't know" said Jimmy. He just wouldn't come and we couldn'' make him. Who'll tell Johnny Chuck?''
 Jimmy looked at Unc' Billy Possun and JJnc' Billy Possum looked al Prickly Porky, and then all three looked at Sammy Jay. You'll have to- said Jimmy Skunk. "It's getting broad daylight and it wouldn't do fol any of us to go up to the Old Orchard Chuck is terribly anxious to know, s' you'll have to go. Sammy Jay
 Of course, the real reason nom wanted to go was because they couldn' bear to break the news to johnn. Chuck that his lost baby refused t F come home.
 Sammy Jay made a face at Jimfn. Skunk and at first refused to go Finally, he said he would, and, becaus' 1t was an unpleasant duty, he sprea' his wings and started for the Old Or chard at once. Of course, Johnn' Chuck wouldn't believe sammy Ja. when Sammy said that the bab, Chuck refused to come home. Johnn. said he didn't believe that Prichl, Porky had tried to set him free. be

KILLING TIME

NiIItIN0
 Arnold Bennett tells us that it is no longer considered good form fop woman not to have some regular occu- patton outside of her home duties-and that, he adds, aside from the ordinary charity business.
 Though Mir. Bennett has not author ized me, I think it is safe to interpret the ordinary charity business to mean certainly not real charitable or social work, but the superficial interest in these things, the playing at work that so many women affected before the war and for which charity fur nished the medium and the excuse.
 The war taught women who had never known work before what real work was It taught them the satis- faction of living interest. and the de- licious tiredness of fatigue as compared with the nerve-racking weariness Of boredom. from which there is no rest.
 The war was supposed to have done away with the woman who cared but to:
 Live and breathe and die.
 A rose-fed pig in an esthetic sty.
 Yet today we find women floundering through life killing time. And when they kill time, though they may not realize it, they are killing something very live and vital and previous in themselves. If they only knew 1t, they are Killing their youth For youth is the power and the desire to do. Youth is energy and enthusiasms- Youth Is interest as against ennui.
 The strange thing about these women who kill time is that they not only do no real work, but they are not even interested in ways of enjoying life With so many wonderful things going on this year in music. the arts, Witn the pieces that everybody can under stand and scores of worth while new books, one would expect the woman oi leisure to have interest and enthusi-

cause no Chuck ever lived who would refuse to run away from such a prison as Farmer Browns boy had made for that baby Chuck. No, sir, Johnny Chuck wouldn't believe Sammy Jays story
 Johnny Chuck was so sure that Sammy's story couldn't be true that Sammy began to doubt 1t himself To make sure he flew up to Farmer Browns dooryard There he saw something that made him gasp for breath He thought his eyes must be playing him tricks. There sat the baby Chuck right on Farmer Browns doorstep sucking milk from a bottle which Farmer Browns boy was hold ing. And close by sat Bowser the Hound looking on and grinning as he wagged his tail
 Sammy Jay knew then that the baby Chuck never would come back-that he was a pet and would rather live at Farmer Browns than down in the Old Orchard.
 Poor Johnny Chuck said Sammy Jay as he flew back with this aston ishing news.

"The most thorough and satisfactory
is to lay the carbuncle freely open un~
der an anesthetic and scrape with
sharp spoon or cut away all sioughs
until healthy tissue is reached, and
then to disinfect the cavity thoroughly
