PETER RABBIT FIGHTS WITH
HIMSELF


That's funny thing to do-to
fight with yourself-isn't it? But
that is what Peter Rabbit did
rought with himself. Yes, sir. Peter
fought with himself, and it was a
hard fight. You kno.s. that kind of
fighting is the very hardest kind of
fighting in the world. You see it
was this way: Peter had been lucky
very lucky He had started out to
follow Busy Bee from the Green
Meadows to her storehouse in the
Green Forest and almost right away
he had lost sight of her. But he kept
on deep into the Green Forest, wan
dering this way and that way, until
he had grown so tired that he just
had to sit down at. the foot of a big
tree to rest. And is he rested he
had heard a humming sound way UP
high over his head, and it sounded
as il ii came from inside the great
tree. When Peter looked UP he saw
Busy Bee and all her relations COM
ing and going form a little hole way
up near the top of the tree. Then he
knew that just by chance he had
found the storehouse of Busy Bee.
How Peters heart did leap! He did
a little joy dance all by himself, with
no one to see. just because he was
so tickled. "Now," said Peter to him
SELF Il will tell Buster Bear and he
will be so pleased that he will always
be friendly to me. and l need never
be afraid of him any more. They say
he loves honey better than anything
else In the world. III hurry and tell
him as soon as can before any one
else finds this storehouse and gets
ahead of me-
Peter started Off. iipperty -lipperty
lip, as fast as he could so to look
for Buster Bear, but he had gone
only a little way when he stopped
suddenly. He had remembered what
Bundle, the cousin of Busy Bee, had
said when he had asked him to tell
him where Busy Bees storehouse
was. Bundle had been indignant,
very indignant. He had hummed and
buzzed angrily. He had said some
very sharp things to Peter about
people who went about making
trouble for others. Peter had gone
home to the dear. Old Briar Patch
and thought it all over and had
made UP his mind that Bundle was
right. 1t was a dreadful thing to
make trouble for others. and he
didn't want to do anything of the
kind But that was before he had
found the storehouse Of Busy Bee.
Then it had been easy to make up

Careless Shampooing
SpoiIs the Hair

Soap should be used very care-
fully. if you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps
and prepared shampoos contain
too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
ruins it.
The best thing for steady use IS
Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo
(Which is pure and greaseless),
and is better than anything else
you can use.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of
Mulsified in cup or glass with a
little warm water is sufficient TO
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub it in. 1t makes
an abundance of rich creamy lath-
er, which rinses out easily, re-
moving every particle of dust. dirt,
dandruff and excess oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it
leaves the scalp soft. and the hair
fine and silky, bright, lustrous,
fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut
oil shampoo at any pharmacy, it's
very cheap, and q few ounces will
supply every member OF the
family for months. Be sure your
druggist gives YOU Mulsified.

Women's time is beginning to have
a value even in The orient. For CEN
turtles Japanese women have been
slaves to countless costumes, one for
every occasion and all subject to
complete ripping and remaking after
each washing or cleaning. Now, ac-
cording to Nine. Inouve, the youthful
dean OF women at the University OF
Toxic, Japanese women are rebell-
ing against this needless waste OF
time and energy.
Men in Japan have already adopt

In Japan there is a special cloth

If a friend dies to the funeral another

there may be an explosion Of anger

teries. is made by George Bernard
Shaw in an interview in the Irish
Times. after a visit to Rosslare.
IF you ask me what on earth De
Valera and Erskine Childers arc
driving at, or what they think they
are doing, I can only say that they
don't know. That is the weakness
Of their position.
From the moment when the cleo
tions went against them completely,
they had either to accept the verdict
and set to work to convert the Irish
to their view or subdue the country
by armed force and, British fashion,
coerce to become a little independent
republic, or take to the mountains
and live more or less by brigandage.
Too Coercive.
They have attempted to coerce
the country, but they have no war
chest-only a program. They called
Ireland republic and told the
troops to live on the country.
This is an impossible situation.
No community can tolerate brigand.
age, even II II Is good-natured, but
the existing brigandsge Is not good
natured. Ireland Is obviously on the
point of losing its temper savageiy.
When the explosion comes the
strain will be on the cemeteries.
Michael Collins had the people be-
hind him. What chance has De
Valera against him? De Valera is
without military aptitude or mill
tary resources.
"Of course, he can die for Ire
land after doing all the damage he
can. What matter II for Ireland
we fall is still the idiots battle
song. The time has now come for
Irishmen to learn to live for their
country.
Deprecates His Genius.
"The cause of Ireland has always
been dogged by ridicule. I suppose
IL will have to be settled as usual
by another massacre Of 1rlshmen
BY lrishmen. II De Valera had any
political genius he might avert IT.,
but with the strongest personal Lias
in his favor l cannot persuade my
self that he has any political fac
ulty at all.
1T have a friendly regard for
Childers. Like all genuine Eng.
lishmen, he is a born anarchist. and
will smash heaven and earth to
have his way unless there Is po.
iiceman standing over him.
II cannot stand for the whole
romance that passes for politics in
Ireland. cannot imagine why
people bother so much about us.
I am sure we don't deserve It,"
