ought to beat me there and back, and
if you do, you get first chance at the
poultry, don't you seer"
Junior Fox did see that, for well he
knew Mr.. Fox's fame as a hunter. He
could pounce among flock Of poultry
and carry off two and leave the others
in such state of mind that it was not
safe for any other fox to go near them
for weeks to come if he happened to
value his life. And Junior did; he
wanted to keep alive very much, In
deed.
"Al1 right will race you to the old
stump and back" said Junior, think
ing he could get one plump hen or
chicken and be off before Mr.. Fox
made the round trip.
ALREADY, now-Go!" called out
Mr.. Fox, and off they ran. But when
they were part way down the hill Mr..
Fox fell behind and hid for minute
behind some brush to see If Junior Fox
turned to look behind for him. But he
didn't, for Junior Fox was too much
interested in getting back to the poul-
try yard before Mr.. Fox, and SO he
made his legs fly and never even
stopped when he reached the stump
by the pond.
He just ran around it and back up
the hill as if the very old dickens were
chasing him. He did notice that he
did not see Mr.. Fox anywhere, ''but,'
he thought, "he is old and probably
had to rest when he reached the
stump"
But he soon found out his mistake,
for when Junior Fox reached the poul-
try yard, just as he was creeping I'M
der the gate and could not turn about,
Mr.. Fox leaped the wall with two
plump birds, leaving behind him yard
full Of squawking hens and quaeking
ducks.
"There he is" cried Mr.. Man, spying
poor Junior Fox trying to make a turn
under the gate.
Mr.. Dog spied him, also. and gave

AS fine materials as can be afforded
should be used for baby's dresses.
Sheer batiste, Persian lawn, French
nainsook and similar materials are
suitable. A considerable saving may
be realized by buying remnants in
lengths sufficient for one or two
dresses. There is seldom time when
the remnant counters do not display
an attractive pile of remnants of vari-
GUS lengths and degrees of fineness.
A dress should depend, in meas
ure, for its beauty, on the fineness OF
the materials chosen and the beauty
of the work, rather than on elaborate
trimming. A five-inch hem, either
hemmed plain or hemstitched, is a
beautiful finish for the bottom. A mar
rover hem, with several alternate
rows Of valenciennes lace insertion and
strips of the dress material, makes a
lovely finish. Still another way Is to
lay deep hem, then mark off the edge
in scallops or points, turn the hem in
on the wrong side, following this out
line, hem in as small stitches as pos
sible; and then on the right side out

Bathroom Towels May Occupy Higher Sphere

Turkish bath towels are not so very
different in appearance from cotton
chenille and other materials that are
used for a variety of purposes and
may therefore, with perfect propriety
step outside of the bathroom door and
find a place in any other room of the
house. These towels may be bought
in a variety Of widths and lengths.
Also Turkish towel material may be
purchased by the yard and comes in
very wide widths. Have you ever tried
using the towels or material for win
dow or door hangings? It may be done
with very good effect. 1t almost goes
without saying that If one attempted
to use them in their original white
color the effect would not be very
pleasing. But they may be easily dyed
very charming colors or they may be
decorated with paint or with appliqued
materials.
Plain towels or materials may be
used and all Of the ornamentation
added, or very good effect may be
obtained without any labor by buying

SEEKING KIND HUSBANDS
Young Women Of Holland Understand
That Americans Treat Their
Wives Well.

Thirty-five young women from Hol-
land stepped foot on American shores
the ssother day admitting they are
seeking "kind husbands because they
heard that American men are good to
their wives" Some American wives
may be inclined to enjoy a silent laugh
over this innocence displayed by the
Hollanders, but after the first humor-
Gus aspect of the situation has passed,
most of those who have enjoyed the
comedy will be einclined to believe
after all that there is much merit in
what these foreign women say about
the husbands Of America, observes
the Bangor Commercial.
When one sits down and considers
the lot of women IN many countries of
Europe, and reflects upon the limited
opportunities which they possess for
enjoying life, it ought to be source
Of mutual satisfaction both to hus-
bands and wives in America that they
are living in country where higher
standard of marital relationship OBJ
tains than in many foreign nations.

BABY ZEBRA

1--WE named you JULIA" said Queen
Bess to her child
"Of course it was the keeper in
the zoo who told me that he thought
that would be a nice name for you,
and l think so, too. / thought so the
moment he spoke of it"
Now, Julia was a baby zebra, and
her mother was grown-up zebra.
A zebra, as you know, is something
like a horse with stripes.
II suppose there are some people
who wouldn't think baby zebra was
the sweetest thing in the world, but
do" Mother Zebra said.
Sometimes now she was called
Mother Zebra, though, of course,
Queen Bess was her real name, as
I've said before
"Your father, Julia Zebra, is known
as George First. Does not that make
him sound regal?
Regal means kingly, of course.
You're enjoying hay, too, now. Oh,
yes, you're eating very grown-up food,
and yet you are only a little girl, only
a little girl.
'sYour father is eleven years old.
You see, that makes him very wise
and important
There are creatures of eleven
years old who may not be wise and
important, but to my zebra mind there
is nothing much finer in the way Of an

my age is a fine age. I am nine years
old.

Is WORN
BY STYLISH WOMEN
Accessory Made Attractive
by Use of Fancy Cut
Diamonds.

II any one article Of jeWelry can be
said to be more popular than another
it is the bracelet, writes fashion
authority in the New York Tribune.
Not one but many bracelets are worn
by fashionable women. The bangle or
rigid style of bracelet is not used. The
keynote Of the fashionable bracelet IS
hexibility, and very lovely are bands
OF pure, sparkling diamonds. They are
very often combined with onyx, form
ing the popular black and white eff
fects.
A new note in bracelets, and one
particularly suitable because OF its
light and pure aspect, is the use OF
fancy cut diamonds, alternating tri-
angular, square and flower shapes.
The jeweled girdle brings bar
barrie note to jewelry. The girdle de-
fives its inspiration from the Oriental
and Egyptian nations. It is developed
in varying materials, according to the
costume and the time at which it Is
worn. For the formal evening gown
there are girdles composed entirely of
diamonds in platinum with buckles OF
diamonds.
Another formal girdle is made of
diamonds combined with links of black
enamel. There are also girdles made
entirely Of rows of pearls. Suitable
for wear with flmy dresses are girdles
of silver ribbon clasped by buckles of
carved jade and other semi-precious
stones.
The headband retains its popularity
for evening wear Naturally for the
less formal dance it is extremely sim
pie and consists of a narrow band of
diamonds enclosed in borders of small
pearls.
The headband is worn low over the

In the least what Mr.. Fox was driv-

Fox just as If Junior Fox had said he

JEAN

TEAM is one of the many French
names which have come to be An
glicized by dropping the final ending
Though infinitely prettier when spelled
Jeanne, 1t is apparently thought to sa-
yor too r4uch of the Gallo for English
ears. 1t is one of the simplest of
feminine uames-its equivalent Jane
being the sole example Of an appella-
tive even less burdened with affecta-
ton.
Jean means "grace of the Lord" It's
earliest predecessor was Joanna, wife
of Herods steward. The Roman calen-
dar has two feasts in honor Of Joanna,
the holy woman of the Bible, but the
real vogue of the name is due to the
numerous st. Johns of the Scriptures,
of which Joanna is really the femi-
nine.
In the Twelfth century Jehanne and
Jeanne appeared in the south of
France and Navarro. The latter was
especially a patrician name and it's
bearers married into many Of the roy
al families Of the times. The daughter
OF Henry II, who married into Sicily,
was the first English princess so

forehead and clasps at the back of the
head. It, therefore, fulfills the double
purpose Of beauty and usefulness in
combining the coiffure, which perhaps
has not yet grown to its full length.
With such headband one can easily
change the day couture to an evening
one suitable for dinner or the dance.
With the headband, especially those
combined with pearls, is worn single
string of pearls, carrying out again
the ever-present motive Of harmony in
jewelry.
Pearls are popular for all occasions.
Charming inspirations in earrings are
those of turquoise globes suspended
from links Of diamonds; crystal COM
bined with sapphires, and jade carved
or in combination with onyx and dia-
monds.

towels that have deep border on one
end and narrow one on the other. In
dyeing these borders become relatively
dark. If you like fringe you will find
that a heavy but narrow one gives a
good finish to the curtains. If fringe
is used be sure that, If you do not dye
It yourself, it Is thoroughly shrunk be-
fore sewing it on. Nothing is gained
by dyeing the fringe yourself except
that if you buy cotton fringe and
dye it, it will be much more apt to
blend with the curtains when the light
has changed their color somewhat.
Heavy Grapes such as these are best
hung with hooks that pin into the ma
terial. If hem is made the curtain
will not push back far enough.
1t is usually advisable and almost
always economical to use double cur
tain rods. This allows the under cur
tain to protect the heavy Grapes from
strong light. If colored Grapes do not
have this protection they should be
faced. This is neither so practical nor
so economical.

ROBINSON
BE REASONABLE

THOSE who follow the rule of rea-
\ son in all things will find them
selves more likely to receive the
blessings of love and respect from
their fellowmen. Dollars may not pile
up as rapidly for those in the profess
sions or business who are reasonable
in their charges as for those who col
lect exorbitant fees. But the joy OF
HE will not be so certain. Happiness
cannot be bought.
The man who labors hard to earn
an honest days wages always prizes
his dollars more and Is more likely
to rest comfortably at night than
he who exacts unreasonable fees or
profits for the service he performs for
the public.
The recent action of Johns Hopkins
officials in announcing that no surgeon
should be allowed to charge more
than $1,000 for single operation in
that famous Baltimore institution
should command wide attention. 1t
commends itself to others just as well
as surgeons-lawyers dentists, farm
ers, merchants, laborers, mechanics
and those in all branches of the COM
mercial, financial and Industrial
world.
Human life is precious and the sur
geon who saves a mans life through
a delicate operation is a valuable pub
lie servant who deserves adequate
compensation for his skill. But Johns

Che Friendly Path

Hopkins recognizes and suggests a
curb on dangerous tendency which
has been developing, inimical to the
public welfare
1t is doubtful If men in any voca-
ton have been as poorly paid for their
services to humanity as physicians
and surgeons have been. But those
who enter these important professions
would be unfit to engage in these
noble fields of labor If they were at
tracted to them by the possible money
returns rather than by the opportu-
mites to lessen suffering and to save
human life.
Knowing Of the great earnings a
few specialists have received has In
f1uenced young men in many instances
to become surgeons and specialists
when untitled to specialize.
In a measure this has been respon-
sible for the decrease in the number
Of country practitioners so that resi-
dents Of rural communities often suf-
fer because of inability to procure
services on urgent calls.
The country doctor who saves life
for few dollars in dingy farm
houses, performs service which
saves lives that are just as valuable
as those saved by great surgeons for
which big fees have been paid 1t
should not be questioned how much
a surgeon or physician should charge,
but whether the motive back of the
service is gold or the relieving of suf.
fering and saving of human lives.

on the Huallaga river in Peru. There
are no laws and no taxes, and most Of
the inhabitants are fugitive murder
ers. In this domain is the cave OF the
"oil BIRDS" The cave is mammoth
and as beautiful as those in fairy
tales. much like a cathedral on the

birds have their home here. The
young of the species are exceptional
" fat, and the natives squeeze them
and make something much like oil
from them. The oil is used for ey-

BRICK IDEAL
FOR BUILDING
Economical for Construction in
Long Run, Dealer Says.

Three chief considerations to be
taken into account in any building
operation are utility, strength and
beauty, according to S. II. Tompkins
Of the Allied Coal and Material Com
psny.
Brick as a material is ideal for
building purposes" he said' Brick
combines all three factors and many
more in addition. A great many per
sons are inclined TO believe that a
brick house, however, desirable it may
be from many standpoints. is too cost
" to be erected by a person of ordi-
nary means. As a result they often
are led into the erection of something
far less substantial than brick con
struction.
"As a matter Of fact there is moth
ing in the option as to the costuness of
brick 1t is now an obsolete idea, one
that has persisted from the days when
lumber really was cheap. II can be
proved conclusiYely that while the
first cost Of brick houses may be more
than that OF frame structures, that
! the ultimate cost OF the brick is far
/ cheaper. The upkeep cost Of brick is
practically nothing and in addition its
! structural durability and artistic
beauty create economic advantages
I that save money and in the end actual
| ~ reduce the cost OF q brick house to
/ a point below that Of a less durable
and substantial building.
"Upkeep. insurance. depreciation
and maintenance costs all enter into
/ this and figures Will show that they
all favor brick construction The
brick house requires no painting. re
