Yowlcr Tries Again
 F By Thornton w. Burgess
Why waste time OCT failure signing Just buck up and keep on trying.
 -Yowler the Bob Cat,

The little people of the Green Meadows and the Green Forest waste very little time thinking about failures. They know that this is worse than useless, so they just for get and try again. Of course, Yowlcr the Bob Cat was disappointed when he failed to catch one of the beavers at the dam. He had thought himself very clever, very clever indeed, when he had planned to try to catch one of them crossing the dam. He had looked that new dam over with the greatest care. He had made up his mind that Paddy the Beaver had no intention of building a new house up in that new pond, That meant that the food pile would be down in the old pond.
 And that means" said Fowler, talking 10 himself, that any food cut around the shore of the new pond will be taken down to the old pond and must be dragged over this dam. To try to catch one of those Beavers while cutting trees close to the water will be waste I of time. The place 10 catch one is

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
(BY DR, HUGH S. CUMMING) Surgeon General, [. s, Public
 Health Service
Health Service

! ou know that man can exist for some time without food. Sometimes men have gone without food for weeks. Man also can live short time without water. Man cannot live without air. IT the supply of air is shut off life becomes extinct in few minutes.
 Very few realize how important air is in the matter of health. Peo- pie who know that they cannot live without air will nevertheless keep their windows closed and their doors shut, They burn up the air in their rooms with fires and lights.
 They fail to give their bodies the benefit of proper ventilation. They shut the air off from their bodies with close fitting, heavy shoes, with tight collars and with closely woven cloth of all kinds,
 For q long time, many people thought that there were two kinds of air, day air which was good, and night air, which was bad. In some parts of Europe people still have this wrong idea. There are still fin America many people who believe that night air is bad, and keep the windows of their sleeping rooms ! tightly closed at night.
 Everyone should know that night i air is not bad air, that night air is rot dangerous, but that night air is good. By keeping the windows of your sleeping room open at night it 1 will help you to avoid tuberculosis sometimes called consumption.
 Another mistake which many peo- pie make is due to the fact that they believe the body takes in air only through the lungs. The Public Health Service wants you to know that fresh air Is important 10 your skin as well as to your lungs.
 Still air-air that is not in mo. tion-should be avoided. To keeI your body in perfect health yor need air that is moving, Keep the aiI about you in motion. Open youl windows. Open your doors. Use thu electric fan. An electric fan i healthtul. even in winter weather II you do all these things, you vii get the greltcst amount Of value ou of natures mcdicine-fresh air Fresh air benefits the whole body IL helps you 10 avoid disease.
 Plants kept lI d room wher 'lorc is but little fresh air and sun shine soon wither and die. What 1 true o' pants is also true of men Wumen and children.
 b. not be afraid of fresh air Mos: people need to lrarn that the should be afraid of closed and heat ed rooms. The temperature of you room should never be more than [ degrees. Sixty-eight degrees is evei better for health. Excessive heat i unhealthy. Air which is foo dry unhealthy. Stagnant air is un healthy. Give your skin plenty O fresh air. Do not wear tight cloth ing. Give your lungs plenty Of fresl air.

 The doorbell rang and she started 10 her feet. "I'll go,' said Mrs. Flaw icy. "You mustn't waste lime" Bar bara sat quite still until her mother returned with q telegram in her hand. Barbara's face frightened. She tore it open.

 She took the handful of papers.
 There was the. usual run of Civi- tas luncheons, psychology lectures, church notices and a death or two.
 Barbara picked up a short clip. ping near the bottom of the pile Unexpected Wedding" said the headline,

 Every man had something of the same indoor paleness, acccntuatei by the light that fell in a circle from q green shade over his desk.
 She walked back to her desk and sat down again, The lovclorn mail had accumulated in piles in the two wire baskets. Proofs of Bar: bara's Christmas page for women lay across her typewriter. In the center of the page was a picture Of fat and laughing baby.

 Their words were inaudible to Barbara, but she caught the win ming smile with which Lydia said her farewell. When his caller had gone, McDermott went back into the office and closed the door, Barbara heard q buzzer ring for Jimmy, the office boy.
 A moment later Jimmy came to her. "Mr. McDermott wants to see you"
 McDermott was waiting for her re- flcctivcly chewing the end of ci- gar. "Sit down, Miss Hawtfy,' he said. "I want to talk to you"
 Barbar looked at him wonder ingly.
 "You'vc been with us several months now" he said, and I'd like to give you a better chance to show what you can do. Wells likes your work, but he hates to admit it. He isn't much for women on the staff, you know"
 'Ive tried to be as good man as any on the staff," replied Bar bara. He didn't want to be friends, but I think he's given in now

 i've told Wells I would make you feature editor and relieve you of everything else except the lovelorn column--on which, by the way, you're doing a good job"
 Barbara's eyes opened very wide. McDermott looked amused. "A raise goes with it. Miss Hawley. What do you say?"
 "Gorgeous," cried Barbara, That is if I can do it."
 Tt won't do any harm to try, any way. By the way, have you heard anything more about the Vale Acres deal? We ought to be watching that pretty closely It's going to be either the biggest real estate coup ever put over in New Britain or the biggest flivver."

You know how Mrs. Paddy started to drag a log over that dam just under the very tree in which Yowler was lying in wait. But she wasn't directly under Yowler. He couldn't drop or jump down on her without changing his position. He tried to make up his mind 10 wait and trust to luck that she or one of the others would later pass direct iy under 'him.
 But the sight Of Mrs, Paddy so near was too much for him and he tried to noiselessly get out on the | limb directly over her. But she heard his claws and instantly gave .he danger signal as she dived into pond. Yowler was so disappointed that he felt like yelling right out, But he didn't He said nothing, made himself comfortable on that limb, and watched Paddy and his family work, tugging their logs over the dam at a point where he could not reach them.
 When the logs were over and in the Laughing Brook on the other side of the dam they were lowed down 10 Paddys old pond. The mo- ment the Beavers were out of sight Yowler moved. Down from the tree he came and swiftly ran along the dam to where a great. high rocl formed one of its supports. Up or this he sprang.
