 Well, sir" he went on when the Raggedys and, little Ned Gnome nod ded their heads, "Grampy Groundhog mad just finished planting nice along came little Percy Pig and root ed it all up! Little Percy Pig is al ways putting his nose in other peo- ple's affairs, so, when he rooted up Granny Groundhog's nice new gar den, Granny Groundhog was inside his home peeping out of his front door. Then when Percy Pig had fin ished roofing up Granny Ground hogs garden, he began roofing right in Grampy's front door. This was too much for Granny Groundhog and he bit little Percy Pigs nose so hard little Percy Pigs eyes filled with tears and he started squealing and running as hard as he could"'
 And that is why he could not see where he was running and ran right in under the mean little old Witch and carried her away upon his back! Raggedy Ann laughed. Anyway, If it had not been for that, the mean little old Witch would have captured Raggedy Andy and me sure that time!
 Let us walk over and help Cram py Groundhog replant his garden? Raggedy Ann suggested. So the Woodpeckers flew away to tell their friends of the ice cold soda water fountain while the Raggedys and lit- tie Ned Gnome walked through the bushes towards Granny Groundhog s home.

WHILE YOU'RE AWAY

Ijttle Madame Housewife was go- ing away to the country Tor the sui try month of August to v1slt some of her relatives. Young MT. Home maker was to stay in the apartment land the office) for the month, and then they were to go off fishing to- gether during September. for MT, Homemaker, being a newcomer, hao to take his vacation when he could get it-after everybody else had had first choice.
 On the day before she went away lord into the pretty kitchen.
 If you are going to stay here alone" she said with decision, you must learn how to take care of the house and the food and the ice-ano yourself. Teddy" Here she visioiy
 "First of all, you must know how to get yourself an appetizing break fast. can't bear to think or your eating cold bakers break and drink ing horrible coffee. Here's the per colator, dear. When you first come down In the morning put the teaKettle on. Then put two heaping table spoons of coffee in the percolator. Pour two big cups of boiling water over the coffee and set it over low flame-nke this. It will be ready when y9ur bacon and eggs are.
 NOW lay two StrlpS or pacoh U" this little rack in the baking pan. Put 1t in the oven and turn on the broiler--not too high. While the ba- con Is broiling. put this tiny skillet 'on over low burner, put teaspoon full of lard in it and break an egg into 1t gently. It will fry slowly and be delicious. Just before you turn 1t over, put salt and pepper on it.. You've had your plate heating here all the time, you see. and you've set your tray with knife. fork, spoon and napkin. and a pat of butter. Have some slices of bread cut, and when the bacon and egg are done, make your toast right at your place. and pour your coffee. Promise me you'll not eat dish of cold cereal and nothing more"
 Then she showed him a set of "do's and dont's" instructions for getting a simple supper. and how to make unwashed dishes look as if some- body cared for them. Every two days a cleaning woman was to come in and catch up for him. and If he would only eat well, she could be happy about him. He promised faith fully. and when he joined her a month later showed that he had full tillet his promise.

TAKING INTEREST IN
 YOUR OWN JOB

T know what's wrong with the average worker today" remarked an executive of large concern that hires hundreds of young men and women. She doesn't know how to take an interest in her job and in the business of the firm she is work ing for. The only employees l ad- vance these days are those who ac- tually feel and show some interest In this business--who have we at titude toward it."
 l understood perfectly what that expression meant. Certainly agreed with him. Do you know the difference between the "I' and the we attitude in business?
 I know one young woman who now holds d responsible position with 6 large drug concern. She started as stenographer at s7 a week and to- day she makes more than ten times that. She took an interest in her job; she felt a personal responsl- bility for the affairs of that com pany. l have heard her say: MT. H., do you think it would be wise for us to ship that order? You re- member the difficulty we had cor lecting the account last time or Do you know what I think We oughi to do? Get after MT. So-and-So, q don't seem to be up to average.
 That girl has 6 we" attitude. She takes a genuine interest in the firm. And that is why she holds the po- sition of assistant sales manager.
 Girls, you cannot come to your office day after day, week after week, and feel yourself apart from the affairs of the concern. If you regard yourself as an individual, If you breeze in and out quite aioof from the vital concerns of the busi- ness and merely perform your own job. no matter how well, you will never advance yourself in that firms employ. You must actually feel part and parcel of the organiza- tion-take an active interest and show 1t. Act as if the business were responsibility of yours; think about it; try to make sugg gestions, as did my young friend in the drug con cern. It is interest of this kind eVl- denced to employers that make them feel the value of your services.
 One employer made the remark Half the time I'll put up with slow ness, with mistakes, if only l can feel that a worker really feels an inter est In my business, acts as if he puts his heart into our affairs
 You can't be merely an indifferent employe. girls, and be quite apart from the affairs of business If you want to get ahead. You must really feel and show interest in your firm. And if you aren't interested in its affairs either try to become inter ested or put yourself in a job that really interests you.

NOVELTIES IN SHOPS

The handkerchief is an important dress accessory nowadays and nov cities are appearing constantly, One of the latest of these Is the rose petal" handk erchief which is a square of chiffon and all around the edge are overlapping petals which give the kerchief its name. This dainty bit of chiffon which bears the price mark, $2.95. looks charming tucked Into the glove band or bracelet. It can be had In all the soft shades.
 Women shoppers were surprised as they entered one prominent Fifth Avenue shop recently to find q dis play of smokers supplies facing them. The showing of cigarettes and other accessories Is large and attractive. While mere man is satisfied with plain, paper rolled cigarettes the new corps of smokers demand beauty with the smoke. which Is truly feminine, so this progressive firm is showing q special line of cigarettes In novelty sizes and colors; some even have painted designs. In tips too there is variety, for some are of gold and others silk while cork and plain tips are also represented.
 The damask aprons that are being featured in one shop as Sunday sup per aprons" are among the latest novelties. They are cut in surplice fashion and juanty bow adorns the shoulder. If you have a round dam ask tab1ecloth stored away you can

The influx of summer relatives had begun.

Tt must have cost a pretty penny to have that built in"
 Why, no, Aunt Patty" protested the little matron. Tt is a sectional one. like the sectional bookcases, you yknow. and it comes all ready to put up. First there was just the sink here you remember. Then two years ago added the grooved drain. which forms the top of this chest of drawers for cooking utensils. Last Christmas Q ack gave me one of the dish-cup- boards. with bins below for flour, sugar and so on. Then when l saw the arrangement recommended by the makers of this sectional furniture, and realized my need for more shelf space, I sent for another of the cup boards, and made this spiffy bal anced piece of furniture. which fits around the window here. It is nice, isn't it?'
 Nice? l should say so." calculated the elderly lady. And all ready made, with no carpenters mess Tn your kitchen. and you can ad more to it whenever you want to. My, this Is a wonderful age to live in"
 "Yes. and the makers have all sorts of other clever combinations, went on the young housewife. flushed with pleasure over the praise of her home. "They'll send you charming partl- tions to turn one big room into two, or two little rooms Into one. You can get sectional windowseat and bookcase arrangements and china cupboards that connect the dining room and the kitchen7-all ready to insert into the wall They make adorable long tables and benches to form a dining alcove, too. And fold, ing tables and benches from wall closet. Yes. it Is wonderful age glad l live in it."

unfortunate things may be happening

unfortunate things may be happening in the saucepan.
 How long does it take to reach this point? That depends on the kind of juice. amount of sugar, &c. But as Lady Macbeth so well said, Let 1t be done quickly"-there should be no time lost in jelly mak- ing, no simmering for hours should be allowed, indeed overlong cooking will destroy pectin entfsely. Currant Jelly from Extraction No. l takes about to 10 minutes; blackberries and rasps about 20-3o minutes at the most.
 When do you add the sugar-at the beginning, In the middle. or near the end of the boiling? Long ex- periments seem to prove that the best time is the middle. that is after the juice has boiled about half the time, you add the sugar,previously heated. The reason for this Is obvious. by adding the heated sugar you do not retard the jellying by having to heat up a mass of cool sugar. In every case stir the mass with wooden spoon carefully to prevent scorching, and keep fire low and even in heat.
 Do not make jelly for more than six glasses at once If you expect per feet consistency. Rather boil up small quantities at a time and repeat until all your juice Is used. Have all glasses sterilized, ready, and the measured sugar dry and hot. After the jellies are set. seal up with lot paraffin. Close with hot clean tin covers and store in dry place.
