but the compromising advantage from
the point of view of fashion in her
present mood-that Il handbag in no
wise detracts from tho slender sill
houette. Pockets that really held
things would be out of the question.
Do you remember the Arabian
Nights story in which ropemakcr
named Hassan puts his treasure for
safekeeping in the folds Of his
turban? And those familiar with
Oriental customs tell US that turbans
arc not infrequently used even now
as a repository for money and other
precious possessions. Who knows but
that i'll the constant changes of fash
ion we, too, may adopt the custom
of making purses of our turbans or
hats?
One thing is certain. and that is
that the handbag is ill adapted to
the requirements of the Sportsw oman.
Every tennis player of the feminine
gender has been confronted with the
problem of finding Il place to keep
her purse. French sportswomen
sometimes wear leather belts from
which are suspended little purses. and
this seems to be a trick worth adopt
ing on this side of the Atlantic. The
belt slips through narrow slides on
the side of the slip-on sweater and
the bag is of fringed suede leather.

noise. He didn't want Bobby to know
that he had been followed
To make sure that Bobby was in
there Farmer Browns Boy looked
around to see If there were any more
of Bobbys tracks Right away he
discovered tracks leading away from
that tree. He bent over to look at
them closely. We'll, what do you
know about this?" he exclaimed.
These are not Bobby Coon's tracks.
Here is the mark of a tail dragging
in the snow. These are Unc' Billy
Possum's tracks. AS 1 live, the old
rascal must have been in Bobby
Coon's homo and had to leave when
Bobby returned, / wonder where he
has gone now
So Farmer Browns Boy followed
Une Billy Possum's tracks They
wound in and out among the trees
and at last ended at the foot of a
tree. Looking up, Farmer Browns Bow
saw that there was a hole in this one
also. There were no tracks leading
away from that tree, so he knew that
Unc' Billy must be in there. He
guessed that this probably was Unc'
Billy's home, the home where he had
lived before he moved over to Bobby
Coon's tree. Again he took care to
make no noise. "Cnc' Billy will sIeep
- nc uooSi hfo" tndt know
where he lives thought Farmer
Browns Boy. i've learned two Sc
crets from tracks in the snow this
morning. L wonder if can learn any
more? l hope no one else will find
the tracks of Bobby Coon and Unc'
Billy Possum. I don't believe this
snow will last long, and 1 hope it
won't. Their secrets are safe with
me, but they might not be with

NV Neighbor Says:

While a gas stove must be
kept clean both inside and out,
it should never be BACKED, for
the reason that the heat IS in
sufficient to absorb backing.
Consequently it only rubs off
again and the particles must
go somewhere about the room
or into cloths or clothing.
The best cleanser is a rag
dipped into kerosene applied to
every part while the stove is
still warm. If the burners are
red from constant use an oily
rag will correct this, but black
ing must never be used upon
the perforated top. A damp
cloth will wipe off any dust
that may lodge there, but it is
a good idea. to cover the range
with a newspaper when walls
or floor in the kitchen are
being swept. The racks in the
oven should be removed at least
once a week and be thoroughly
secured with hot water con-
tanning common soda applied
with q stiff brush. Other days
a. sheet Of newspaper crushed
and rubbed over the bars will
be sufficient. Unless the grease
is removed frequently it will
accumulate, and some time
when the oven is very hot the
fat will catch fire, SO there is
danger in neglect.
1t often happens when one is
in d hurry that a shoehorn
cannot be found. The best
way to remedy this is to fold
an envelope in half and use in
the same way you would 4
horn. You will find your shoe
will slip on easily.
Save your turnip Feelings.

so FARMER BROWNS BOY FOL-
LOWED UNC BILLY POSSUMS
TRACKS.
He had had to give up that comfort
able house and now he must go back
70 his own house. To get there he
must go through the snow, and Unc'
Billy was very much out of sorts as
he made his way home.
Now no one can walk in soft snow
and not leave tracks. From the edge
of the Green Forest, where Farmer
Browns Boy had set him free, Bobby
Coon had left tracks in the snow all
the way to his holloN tree. He hadn't
thought anything about these tracks.
He had been too happy in his freedom
to think of anything else. Had he
thought of them he might have been
a little worried.
Farmer Browns Boy had watched
Robby Coon out of sight. Then he
had gone back to the barn to do some
work. "That little rascal probably
will go straight to his home" said
Farmer Browns Boy, talking to him
self. II don't know just which hol-
low tree he is living in now, and /
guess this will be my chance to find
ont. / don't want him to know that
he is being followed, SO / will wait
awhile"
A couplc of hours later Farmer
Browns Boy started to follow Bobby
Coon's tracks. They were very plain
in the soft snow, and Farmer Browns
Boy had no trouble at all in follow
ing them. 1t was fun. At last they
ended at the foot Of q big tree.
Farmer Browns Boy looked up. He
saw a round hole. He knew then that
there was a hollow in that tree and
that he had found Bobby Coon'S home.
He didn't pound on the tree to try
to make Bobby come out, ~ some
thourhtleeu boys would have done.
Instead, he took care to make no

What TodayMeans to You
Scorpio.
BY MARY BLAKE.

Todays planetary aspects are ex-
cellent, stimulating and full OF in
Spiration. The doubts and uncer-
tainties of yesterday will have dis
appeared, and self-confidence and Ger
tain courage will assert themselves.
Today offers a favorable opportunity
for decided action and resolution in
matters where only doubt and mis-
giving have prevailed, and the signs
counsel forceful energy and active
initiative. 1t is also a very auspi-
cious occasion for marriage or for
popping" the fateful question.
A child born today will be subject
to the ordinary viciSsitudes of in
fancy, but, with proper nutrition and
care, will survive all these troubles
and attain a strong and healthy ma
turity. Its character will be rather
self-willed, its disposition assertive
it's mentality quick and retentive
This child must at no time be in
dulged, and it must be taught, at all
cost, proper respect and conSidera-
ton for the feelings of others. 1t
must not be given the opportunity to
have it's own way, at tho expense OF
other peoples comfort and conven-
fence. 1t will achieve material as
well as social success.
If today is your birthday nature
has endowed you with an exceptional
degree of charm as well as an intel
lect that could, II you would allow
it. achieve an unexampled measure
of success in almost any walk of life.
By your charm you make friends
easily and are considered popular
BY your intellect you absorb quickly
and learn very readily.
The one thing, however, that
stands between you and the material
success you covet is your laziness
and the absence Of all continuous and
sustained effort. You do not feed
your brain with either the right ali
mentary products or with regularity.
1t is, therefore, far from being in a
healthy condition.
You are an intellectual hare. You
take too many resting or recreative
spells AS a result the clumsy tor
toiSe overtakeS you and beats YOU
in the race of life. You fit from one
occupation to another and become a
Jack of all trades, rather than q
master Of one" In this age of keen
competition and rivalry specializing
is becoming more necessary every
day, and whereas the dabbler used, in
the bygone days, to have chance to
make his or her mark, the require
ments of today are different, and rec
ognition is only secured by stick at
iveness," and courageous persever-
ance.
Well known persons born on this
date are: Hiram CorSon, educator
Charles II. Morgan, soldier; Francis
T.. Abbott, Unitarian clergyman and
author; Ellen Oiney Kirk t1enry
Hayes"D, writer of romances, essays,
reviews, etc; John +. Sousa, pand i
master and composer; \. w. Aldrlch'
United States Senator.

lie considered the policy of Lord
North as senseless. He realized the
eventual greatness of the "planta-

brave enough to tell his own country
that "a great empire and little minds

Americans not only value his
courage and friendship but they are
proud that their cause should have
been upheld by man whose speech
on American Conciliation' is even
now considered such model of logic
that it is studied in universities.
The statue of this Englishman who
worked for America is a tie in the
Friendship between the United States

serves the same purpose as the
statues of Lincoln and Washington
