Il didn't realize how much you
hated me-" Dean Hampton returned
very quietly, and it was at that mo-
ment that Fay's self-control slipped
from her. In her small white face
her amber eyes were blazing. Never
in her life before had she been in such
a tempest of rage.
That's just it, she burst out
tensely, Il don't hate you, but that
doesn't prevent me from knowing how
much you hate me. From hiatt very
firdst day when you saw me in the train
and denied 1t afterward. I've known
that you despised me. At first I tried
not to care. l tried to make myself

With quick turn fhis wrist Dean
turned the car off the road and into a

Reddy started around the edge of the
pond. He wanted to see what would
be done when those Beavers reached
the dam.
Peter Rabbit saw Reddy Fox start
off and he knew just where Reddy
was going. That is, he guessed where
Reddy was going. He guessed from the
way in which Reddy had watched
Paddy and the Young Beaver start off
and then had hurriedly trotted away
along the edge of the pond toward the
dam. Peter wanted to go, too. My,
how he wanted to go! But he didn't
dare go. OF course not. 1t would
have been the most foolish thing DOS
sible. So he remained where he was
and watched Mrs. Paddy and the other
young Beaver start off, each with
log. He wanted to see what they
would do with those logs. He wanted
to know if they We're to go down to

was SO disappointed that he quite
forgot he had anything to be thank

French women have turned their
thoughts to tweeds, and tweeds, as
you now see them, are not what they
used to be. Not only do tweeds APP
pear in new and refreshing colors but
there are all sorts of new weaves to
lend variety to the tweed family. All
sorts of reddish brown tones have
been smart this Winter with the
tweeds. These fresh vibrant brown
tones have taken the place of the old
time muddy tones that were found
when you went in search Of brown
tweeds. Then there are tweeds in
flower tones, too-mauve and white,
gray and rose, blue and green.
1t has for years been a widespread
idea that any garment made of tweed
must of necessity be of mannish con-
struction. If you thought anything
at all about it you thought that.
Tweed was a mannish material, there
fore a woman's tweed suit must be
mannish. Recently dressmakers have
broken down Il lot of these old time
notions. They have used leather
trimming on evening frocks and have
used cretonne and chintz to trim
street frocks. Heavy Winter coats
have been lined with georgette and
Summer coats have been trimmed
with fur. Now they are making quite
feminine sorts of coats and frocks
or suits of tweed.
The sketch shows a little tweed
coat of IA mixture predominantly
broWniSh red. The collar and cuffs
are cleverly trimmed with balls Of
nutria. To be sure the coat is straight
and rather severely tailored, but the
sleeves are close and well fitted and
there is not an inch too much ma
terial in the body of the close-fitting
coat-not at all the sort of tweed coat
that we used to leave hanging around
in a downstairs coat closet for any
one in the family or chance guests to
use as an extra motor wrap.

THE TRUTH IS, REDDY WAS AS
INTERESTED AS PETER HAD
BEEN IN WATCHING THE
BEAVER FAMILY WORK.

now. because he didn't know just
where Reddy was, Peter didn't dare
come out. He hoped that Reddy didn't
know he was over there, but of this he
held little hope. for he knew that if
he could smell Reddy the latter must
have heard him thump a warning just
before he ran for that hollow log.
Peter knew that the Beavers had
needed his warning. for he had heard
them plunge into the water He felt
proud of the way in which he had
proved himself a good Waterman. 1t
wasn't until some time had passed
that he heard the Beavers at work
again. He was just getting ready to
join them to keep watch again when
he overheard Paddy saying something
about lost time all because of a false
alarm. Not until then did Peter recall
that Reddy was not one of those OF
whom Paddy and his family were
afraid. Instead of saving those Beav-
ers, that alarm had delayed their work
and had quite upset Paddy's temper.
SO Peter decided 70 keep out of sight.
1t was just as well, for presently he
heard Reddy Fox and knew that
Reddy was still about.
The truth is Reddy was as interest
ed as Peter had been in watching the
Beaver family work. He admired
those great cutting teeth or Paddy s
is they shipped off a half-inch limb at
n single bite. He admired the way in
which Paddy trimmed the limbs from
that tree, all but the small ones at the
top and he wondered what Paddy
would do with that long trunk. But
he didn't have to wonder long. Paddy
began cutting out chips from a place
about 5 or 6 feet from the larger end
and presently had cut a way through.
Then he dragged this log into the
water. One of the young Beavers,

HOW 1T STARTED
BY JEAN NEWTON.
"By and Large. !"

This is a phrase popularity used in
common speech for ION the whole" or
"all things considered"
Traced to its source, we find the ex.
preston considered a landlubber' S
translation of the nautical Ion the
wind and off the wind" meaning con
sidered both ways" as 1.-The vessel
sails well, by and large"
Mark Twain, in "Old Times" used
the expression in this way:
Taking you by and large you do
seem TO be more different kinds of an
ass than any character l ever saw be-
fore"
Previously. its earliest known use
was by the British-American humorist
Thomas Halliburton, who lived from
1896 to 1856. and from one of whose
satirical references we quote the fol
lowing:
"A man that, taking him by and
large. is the equal of one of our free
and enlightened citizens"

How to Obtain the Best Flavors
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

| know substitutes for extracts when
| one goes to the pantry shelves and
| finds, to her dismay, that the one
| she wants at the moment Is out, and
| there is not time to get 1t for the dish
in process of making. OF course, the
perfect housewife will always restock
before any ingredient is out, so that
she never fails to have just what
she wants when she wants 1t. I'm
fortunately, there are few perfect
housewives, and therefore emergencies
must be allowed for. Then good man
agement takes the helm of efficiency.
FIavors and Colors.
Pistachio flavoring can be simulated
by mixing little almond with vanilla.
BE sure to remember to tint pistachio-
favored dishes with green. SO curl
ously does the sight affect the taste of
food that the green tint that is asso-
ciated with pistachio because of the
color of the nut, violet actually &C.
cents the desired flavor.
DO not forget this hint when flavor
ing things with violet. Tint the candy,
icing. ice cream. etc. with violet and
then flavor with violet. Add a few
drops of anise to vanilla extract to get
flavor that Stimulates violet. Just
a suggestion of the anise is sufficient.
more spoils the illusion. I know Of
one woman who in desperation used a
few drops of violet perfume with the
colorinG when making candy. The re-
suit was satisfactory. Beware of
using violet cologne or toilet water
instead of the essence of violets which
is strong in the perfume.
Lemon and Orange.
Lemon juice can be substituted for
lemon extract and be the real thing.
Orange juice can be used in preference
to orange f1avoring If desired. 1t will
prove best when oranges are very sour
or when few drops of lemon are used
with the orange juice. Yellow Is the
coloring TO go with either lemon or
orange fiavorinS. A light lemon vel
low is correct with the former. while
a deeper tone is right for the latter.
A little red blended with the yellow
will result in a good orange tone.
Stimulating Sherry.
Almond and rose water give a good
substitute f1avoring for sherry. Try 1t
sometime when you are making a
gelatin dessert or a sauce for a pud-
ding. Or it can be used for an icing
for q plain white cake, for a sponge
cake or fruit cake. Another good
use for this fiavoring is for fancy
ice creams.
Good Blending.
A little experimenting with blending
of extracts will insure success in get
ting intriguing and delicious results.
1t should be remembered that almond
is very penetrating. So is anise.
Lemon gives ZeSt. Vanilla is mild and
mellow. a pleasing but not very def
mite taste. 1t may form a basis for
blends requiring but a tiny addition
of more pungent or penetrating eX-
tracts to give the best results. Rose
is another mild flavoring, but little
too much of it suggests perfume
rather than f1avoring. 1t blends well
In small portions.
