PUSS IN BOOTS, JR.
BY DAVID CORY.

Peter, Peter, pumpkin-eater,
Had wife and couldn't keep her;
He Put her in a pumpkin shell,
And there he kept her very well.
This is the song a little bird sang as
Puss and Tom watched the funny little
man hollow out the big round pumpkin
"oh, that's the reason he didn't want
to sell the SHE'LL cried Tom Thumb
wise old Peter, Pr pkin- eaterr'
Il wonder whore his wife Is" said
Puss Junior. And en. all OF a sudden
a pretty little won n came to the gate
In the old snake + ace.

you have my Lowell. pumpkin house ready
for u.s."
Don't be impati' ut, my dear" replied
Peter. at takes time to build a house,
whether Of wood or pumpkin shell. I am

Perhaps we can help" suggested Tom
Thumb. II have a tiny sword and Puss
Junior has larger one. Would you care
TO have US show our skip"
But Peter only grunted, So Mrs. Peter
said with a laugh. Come over and tell
me a story; I'd rather hear a pretty
story than have you help Peter. He
might as well be busy at house building
as at anything else. Besides, a pumpkin
house will be very pretty"
"'I think so myself" said Puss Junior.

pumpkin certainly is marvelously big.

Peter Peter! Peter!" she cried. run
back to the farm and get your pickax
1t will take you only a very little while
If you have the proper tool to work
with" Peter seemed TO think this a very
good suggestion, and at once set off for
the farmhouse to get the piekax. and
while he was gone Tom Thumb crawled
In the hole which had already been made
in the huge pumpkin.
And when he came out he said
Pumpkin hall is a very nice sort Of
house. but should like it better If the
pumpkin had been baked into a pie. Then
one could always have pumpkin pie when
he felt hungry" But just then Peter
returned, 80 Tom Thumb ran over to Puss
Junior, who was just about to commence
telling one Of his adventures to pretty
little Mrs. Peter. And in the next story
you shall hear what little Puss Junior
related.-COpyright, 1922.

THIMBLEI THIWBLE!
By CONSTANCE CORNWALL


The Ego home with US" was not lost
on Larry, but her consent to let him go
was beginning, and he felt grateful.
There's no reason why we should dis
agree, Di, dear" he said hopefully.
your explanation so far has clarified
things wonderfully. You can't imag CINE
how terribly upset ! was feeling before
you came in. 1 ought to have known,
though, that you would clear everything
up in a fifty"
Have you any suggestion to make? ?"
Di asked abruptly.
why, yes" Larry said briskly. eff
that mUsty old Earl presume he is
old-wants his baubies back he can
have them. 1 guess We have as good
Jewelry in the United States as any
thing over there, Ell, Di? Let's tell him
that we expected to duplicate them here,
but, We have changed our minds because
the designs in this country are much
more desirable, and sc we are returning
them. Don't you think that something
like that would settle the whole thing ?"
At first Di listened impatiently and
would have interrupted him, but some
thing checked her. Larry fancied he
had made a point to keep his voice as
near as possible to the old time tone. He
believed he had armed himself against
taking advantage of her present difficult
ties but he was also anxious not to lose,
or at least, TO regain every Inch Of the
old time footing. In order to carry out
his plan he compelled himself to forget
the past five years. For the time being,
Lady Banister was unknown. The little
lady sitting in his Office was Di, come
to coax for something that her mother
thought she shouldn't have.
Larry's calculations were all very fine,
as far as they went, but he was figuring
without Di. Five years Of European
society teaches a beautiful woman every
note Of the human voice. The caressing
tones Larry had always used to her had
been lost on the child, but with Lady
Banister It was different.
Suddenly, II seemed to him, she raised
her head, and looked his squarely in the
eyes. Under her searching gaze his own
eyes fell and he began to fidget with
some papers on his desk His hands
shook miserably. In a second, however,
he had recovered his self-possession.
'You see, Di-"
She interrupted him quickly.
81 don't think, after all. Larry, there
is any occasion 10 be horrid," she said
gently. Il am sure you want to help
me all you can, so what's The use of
quarreling? OF course, I can't do what
you propose because the Earl is not the
only factor IN the case. There's that
horrible Spanish woman. I've got to
fight her"
Larry Strengthened up with renewed
attention.
what Spanish woman? he asked
quickly.
Lord Banister's sister-in-law," Di
said rather enjoying his surprise.

were a cropping child, impeIlea bp the
same blind longings and aspirations as
this child Of today.
Life has clarified many Of the vague
notions for you. Experience has crystal
lized into principles of living for you.
Viewed from your present position and
interpreted by the wisdom you have
gained by daily contacts with your
neighbors, your vague thoughts have be-
come clear, your ideas about life more
definite. You know now what it is you
want for this child. You know the sort
of child you want to produce.
He is to be healthy, clean and free
minded.
He must be told the truth, be fearless
, in the truth.
He must feel his relation to the rest of
humanity and learn to carry his respon-
sibility and help his neighbor carry his.
He must live without waste, either of
time or strength or money or principles.
He must learn by right living the art
Of being happy and Of giving happiness
to others.
These notions are vague and broad still,
but they are something to go on.

NO CHILD BAD,
If UNDERSTOOD
THINKS WRITER
Youthful Viewpoint Wrong,
Says Angelo PGtri and
GiUeS AdUice.

No child is bad. He errs in matters
of taste. He mistakes noise for music.
He thinks horseplay is fun. He con-
fuses clothes with people, for he has lit
tie sense Of values. He mistakes crude
ness for candor; license for liberty, says
Angelo Patri, in the March Deuneator.
He makes mistakes because he has lived
with you for so short a time. He has
not learned your ways, your code. Time
will adjust all that. He will learn,
He must be taught and helped and in
spired; but how? Child training is
difficult, subtle, q life work. There is
no open road, no plainly marked chart.
There is little to guide you but the
vaguely expressed wants OF the child and
your own shrouded, muffled efforts to
meet them.
But one thing you can do. Think back
to the days Of your own childhood. You
