him he won't understand that he is
supposed to stay here and keep guard
all night With Bowser here I don't
believe Old Man Coyote or any other
thief will touch our melons"
So that night. when the Black
Shadows came creeping out from the
Purple Hills across the Green Forest
to Farmer Browns Garden, Farmer
Browns Boy took Bowser down to
the melon patch. To Bowser's collar
he fastened one end of a long line.
The other end he fastened to the
fence. "Bowser," said he, you are to
let any one steal a melon tonight"
Bowser wagged his tail as he look ed
up in his masters face. as much as to
say he understood and would do his
best. But he didn't understand at all.
He was very much puzzled dog, was
Bowser the Hound as he watched his
master go back to the house. He
started to follow. but, of course, he
could go no further than the line
would allow him to. He sat down and
mournfully looked after his master.
At last he lay down. This was a new
experience for Bowser, and he didn't
know what to think.
Farmer Browns Boy had left an
armful of straw for a bed. The night S
were not yet cold. and he knew that
Bowser would be perfectly comfor-
table. Bowser was. He curled up on
that bed of straw and went to sleep.
But he slept lightly. Several times
during the night he got up and
walked about as far as the line, by
which he was tied, would allow him
to. 1t wasn't until along toward
morning that Bowser guessed why he
had been left to watch the melon
patch. A faint sound awoke him. He
opened his eyes to see a shadowy
form sneaking through the melon
vines.

My Neighbor Says:

The fruit in solid cakes will

through a cake will undoubted-
ly appear IL the butter and sugar
are not thoroughly beaten. or
If the butter is not properly
rubbed into the -four.
To keep marmalade alright,
beat well the white Of an egg,
with it brush over white paper
and cover the marmalade pot
with the paper while the pre-

To remove fly specks from
vanished surfaces use equal
parts of water and skim milk

When making pie of fresh
fruit. green apple or peach,
where the tenderness Of the
filling depends upon the length
Of the baking. IL you take a
strip of white cloth about an
inch wide and long enough to
encircle the pie, wet it in cold
water and bind it around the
edge of the pie and tin. 1t will
prevent the piecrust from be-
coming too brown around the
edge before the fruit Is cooked.
Table linen should be hemmed
by hand. Not only does it look
better and more dainty. but
there Is never a streak Of dirt
under the edge after being

summers are usually spent at her
farm at Valois, New York, where she
participates in the lighter part Of the
housework and gets a great deal of
fun out of her chickens. raising and
looking after several broods of them
each year. She tells many amusing
stories about her feathered pets and
the extent to which they can be
tanned. trained and also spoiled.
Miss Garrison, who is Mrs. George
Siemonn. is a Baltimorean by birth
and a graduate of the Peabody Con-
servatory of Music. She first became
noted as a choir singer, afterward
making her debut as Filena in

To her other housewifely accom-
plishments she has added cooking
One of her favorite desserts is choco-

tablespoonfuls Of boiling water and
two tablespoonfuls of confectioners

let us look at the facts. Melons have
