about 1t.
Jack Rabbit thought all this and
more, too, and the first thing he knew,
instead of being sleepy he was wide

He got out of his nice warm bed
and peeked out of the door. 1t wasn't

blowing there was the moon. Mother

time she surely is Mistaken" thought
Jack.
He did not notice the clouds scud-

his mind was on those turnips up In
Mr.. Mans barn.

snow on the ground that had been
there a long time, but the thing that
made him cry out was heavy gust OF
wind that blew his long ears about and
lifted a handful of dry snow which
struck Jack right in his eyes.
The moon was nowhere to be seen
now and as Jack Rabbit hoped along
he saw that snow was coming down
very fast. 1t was no use turning back
now, so he kept right on hopping to
ward the barn.
He was pretty cold and tired wher
he got to the convenient hole in the
side of the barn, and when he was In
where 1t was nice and warm once
more, Jack waited minute before
running over to the turnips which hi
saw on the floor in one corner of the
barn.
There is Mrs. Hen and her chicks,

But Mrs. Her was wide awake, for
she was aware Mr.. Fox was about be-

was clucking her thanks at Jack as

Jack Rabbit was hero and did not

turnips and ate his fill and then he

HARRIET

HARRIET, by all right Of signifi-
4 4 canoe, should belong to Ireland
since 1t means "home rule" But In
reality, 1t has its origin In old Morse
mythology where there was a porter
of Valhall called Heimdall, who
watched the further end of the rainbow
bridge Bifrost to guard the Assir from
the giants. His name Is explained by
translating the "heim" as home. 1t was
through this Heimdall that all the
Henrys and Harrys came to be.
The feminine Of the name was in
vented In the Fifteenth century. 1t Is
thought to have originated in France
since Henriet Stuart appears In the
House Of Stuart dAubigne In 1886,
and there we're a number Of Henriettes
to match the Henris of the court Of
Catherine de Medici. England re-
ceived the name from the daughter
Of Henry Nv, Henriette Marie, whom
the prayerbook calls Queen Mary.
though her godchildren were all called
Henrietta. The queens name was
given the French pronunciation. which
a Hawyot, and that became separate
proper name. Harriet Is also pro-
nounced in that manner by those who
are excessively given to propriety.
In England Henrietta is as great a
fayorite as Harriet. Another spelling
OF the latter Is Harriet. Hattie, Hetty
and Eta are diminutives. Henrietta

Saving the Heat.

1t is recognized generally that the
losses of heat from bare pipes and
boilers are considerable, yet their real
magnitude Is little appreciated. The
ract that the loss from LOCO square
feet Of exposed surface at 100 pounds
per square inch in steam pressure
represents more than 300 tons of coal
annually is sufficient justification for
the serious consideration of this sub
ject The value of good nonheat-
conducting cover should therefore not
be overlooked.
One of these covers, composed Of
IS per cent magnesium carbonate and
35 per cent asbestos introduced as q
binder. has been found very efficient
according to recently completed re-
port by the Mellon institute.

Men really know not what good waters
worth."-Byron.
TT HAS been said that the real test
i of good table manners depends on
ones ability to manage knife and
fork in the right way. Quite as good
test might be shown In ones mode
and manner of drinking any Of the
ordinary everyday beverages. The
really fine points in manners are re-
vealed in these everyday things. Don't
worry your head over the proper way
of dispensing tea from Russian sam
oyar. 1t is much more important to
drink the everyday brew from an
everyday tea pot.
1t seems unnecessary to say that
we should drink noiselessly. How
ever, most people don't. Keep tab on
yourself sometime and see whether
you yourself do not have to exert
quite an effort In order to make your
drinking absolutely noiseless. In
drinking tea, coffee. or other bever-
ages served in cup and saucer. you
should use the spoon only in order to
mix the sugar and then TO take few
spoonfuls by way of testing the tenn
perature. To sip the entire cupful
in spoonfuls is decidedly bad form.
If YOU have been advised to "sip" tea
or water in this way for your health,
then out of kindness to your associ-
ates take this in your own room as
you would any other sort of remedy.
Needless TO say we never leave the
spoon in our cups. After the sugar
ia added it should be mixed by one
or two motions of the spoon in the
cup and then it should be laid on the
saucer beside the cup. If your veneer
able grandmother or grandfather
drinks with the spoon in the cup, just
recall that in the days that are long
gone by this was regarded as per-
fectly correct mode of drinking; but
that is no excuse for anyone else.
The same rule applies to spoons In
any glass or cup. And remember
when you are partaking Of soda
fountain concoction that you should
not drink with the straws in the glass
AS matter of fact very good man
ners make no allowances whatever fol
straws. At all events they and the
