them and over into the Old Orchard.
There he sat down to see what would
happen.
Both Farmer Brown and Farmer
Browns Boy exclaimed right out
when they saw Reddy. Bowser the
Hound was in the house. and for this
Reddy was thankful. He knew that
neither Farmer Brown nor Farmer
Browns Boy could hurt him if they
wanted to. for they had no terrible
gun. He doubted if they wanted to
hurt him. for he had come to look
on Farmer Browns Boy as a friend.
So at safe distance in the Old Or
Chard he sat and grinned while he
waited for Old Man Coyote to show
himself
But Old Man Coyote didn't show
himself. He stopped back of the
barn. He heard the voices of Farmer
Brown and Farmer Browns Boy. He
had no desire to be seen. Turning,
he swiftly trotted back the way he
had come. From where he sat in the
Old Orchard Reddy Fox saw him trot-
ting back toward the Green Forest
Then Reddy chuckled. Yes. indeed
Reddy chuckled. He was still chuck
ling when he finally trotted off in
another direction. He had been too
clever for Old Man Coyote.

Your Home and

Fine Laundering.
BY HELEN KENDALL.

I'D like to Iaunder some of my
daintiest lingerie and my finest table
linen myself said a young matron
whose tiny apartment left her plenty
of time for such tasks as this. My
colored Iaundress does the regular
things very well, but she cannot fold
napkins absolutely square and she
makes my round doylies billow al
the edges. while as for my fine under
wear. she snags the lace and takes
the soft crispness out of them

in a bad temper and he guessed the
reason why. He guessed that Old
Nan Coyote had failed to catch Peter
Rabbit and Mrs. Peter and that he
blamed him for the failure. He
GUESSED that Old Man Coyote was
very hungry and that he would just
as soon dine on Fox as on any one
else. So as soon as he discovered
him Reddy started off as fast as his
logs could take him. He knew that
Old Man Coyote could run quite as
fast as. he could and that to get rid
of Old Man Coyote he would have
10 do more than. simply run.
He can run as fast and as far as
! can," thought Rsddy. HE can go
wherever can. II he really means
to catch me he'll do it unless I can
fool him in some way. I've noticed
THAT Old Man Coyote keeps away from
any one about. I've never known him
TO go up there II there were any signs
Of folks being at home. I guess that
IS the place for me to go now. 1t
will be the quickest way to get rid
OF him
so Reddy turned and headed
straight for Farmer Browns. Look
1ng back over his shoulder, he saw
that Old Man Coyote was following
him. 1t was clear to Reddy that Old

felt sure that he. Reddy, would turn
aside before he got very near Farmer
Browns barnyard. II Reddy hadn't
been quite so anxious he would have
chuckled. 1t would be time for
chuckling after he was rid of Old
Man Coyote, SO Reddy didn't chuckle.
He devoted all his attention to run
ming.
As he drew near Farmer Browns
he. could hear voices in the barnyard.
It was daylight and folks were up.
This just exactly suited him. He
was running so as to come up behind
the barn. Looking back over his
shoulder, he saw that Old Man Coy
ots was still following. Reddy kept
an. When he reached the back Of
the barn he ran around the corner

Hot Mustard Foot Bath.

If, while YOU are trying to rescue a
drowning person, he tries to make ii
a double drowning. it is good practice
to hit him hard on the jaw: when he
is subdued and amenable you can drag
him ashore and resuscitate him in the
proper manner. A similar procedure
is necessary in many instances when
one is trying to help a victim who is
struggling in the first stages of some
acute respiratory infection such as
bronchitis, pneumonia, coryza or in
fiuenza. If the victim won't creep
quietly into bed where you can ad-
minister the hot mustard foot bath
in the only safe and proper manner
hit him Cat least figuratively) on the
jaw before he grows too sick. VIC
Tins of such illnesses who persist in
sitting up or. worse. in keeping about
and trying to fight it Off" with or
without doping themselves mean
while, require stern treatment for
their own good.
Having dragged the victim into bed,
having placed him between blankets
and in only sketchy mighty, 1t is
stition he may have by oneTtng hlm
something hot to drink. Probably a
pint or more of lemonade as hot as
may be borne is the best beverage,
though almost any of grandma'S IA

or cambric tea or ginger tea VIII do
very we'll if taken in liberal portions
and as hot as sin. Anything but booze,
genuine or disguised. The worst time
in life to become even slightly intoxi-
Gated is just before a battle, for If the
illness proves to be pneumonia or in
fluenza the patient will require all his
resources to win the fight. 1t is not
less than criminal to handicap him at
the outset with a narcotic like alcohol.
The ancient theory that whisky or
brandy was good medicine in such
cases rested on pessimistic or fatal
istic view-that the poor fellow was
likely to die anyway. so why not let
him die happy? There are still to be
found here and there few surgeons
and physicians who think well of this
fatalistic view-and of booze. But
folks should bear in mind that excel
lent surgeons and the best of special
jsts are usually very poor therapeu-
lists, have little knowledge or expert
ence in that line; indeed. the best Of
them freely admit their incompetence
as therapeutists. But alcohol is mis-
leading us: it has nothing to do with
the hot mustard foot bath.
Having bedded your man down and
fed him his pot of soup you should
next bring on the foot tub, not a
wash basin nor a pail nor a tardi-

The constant breathing in Of minute

Ger which often appears on the faces
of elderly persons, have been cured
by X-ray treatments.
Diphtheria.
My four-year-old son was treated
with toxin-antitoxin as a preventive
of diphtheria at the age of seventeen
months. Is this "shot" still effective OF
must he be treated again to be safe
I. myself, was "shot" in January, 1919
with the preventive for typhoid. Is
that shot still effective or must I be
shot again to be safe?-J. L. 8.
Answer.-The immunity against
dipththeria produced by the toxin-a an
titoxin, and the immunity against ty-
phoid produced by the prophlactic
bacterin are not absolute forms OF
immunity, but a relative immunity
sufficient to protect against all ordi-
nary infections for a few years. The
immunity so produced probably di-
minishes gradually. year by year Just
how long one may be considered safe,
I don not know.

JOE WRIGHT WILL STAY
AS PENN CREW MENTOR

PHILADELPHIA, July 19.-De-
spite the reports that have been
flying hither and yon since Penn
sylvania's lamentable showing at
the college regatta on the Hudson
at Poughkeepsie, John Arthur
Brown, chairman of the rowing
committee at the university, de-
MES the stories that he has been
trying to obtain a successor to
Coach Joe Wright.
Further, Brown states that he
believes Joe Wright, who has an
other year to serve on his contract,
merits all the consideration that
should be given to him, and that
the Canadian coach should be per-
mitted to continue at the helm OF
the Red and Blue aquatics.
Br. Brown, in the newspapers,
has been quoted as endeavoring to
bring Rusty Callow. coach of the
victorious University of Washing
ton varsity eight, to Philadelphia
to supplant Wright. To him has
also been imputed the statement
that there was a possibility that
Wright would not continue at the
University" The chairman Of the
rowing committee denies making
any such utterances.
