Peters Only Chance.
One chance is quite enough If you
Decide Alright just what to do.

Peter Rabbit had formed the habit
of dropping around by the new home
of Johnny and Polly Chuck very
often. He liked to gossip bit with
Johnny Chuck. Then, too, he liked
the Old Orchard. There was always
something of interest going on there.
So whenever Peter was near enough
to easily do so he ran over where the
Chucks were now living.
Now no one can do thing over and
over again for very long without
having some one find it out Reddy
Fox makes it his business to find out
the habits of his neighbors. Reddy
says that the most useful knowledge
he possesses is knowledge of the
rabits Of others. 1t has filled his
stomach more than once, and he
knows that it will fill his stomach
many times again. So the instant
Reddy finds that one of his neighbors
has done a certain thing more than
once he keeps watch to see II this is
the beginning of a habit.
SO when, on two mornings in sue
cession, just after daylight, Reddy,
from a. distance, caught glimpse of
Peter going toward the corner of the
Old Orchard where Johnny and Polly
Chuck had made their new home he
began to do little wondering.
Il must look into this" said Reddy
to himself very craftily. "I must look
into this. Twice I have seen Peter
Rabbit over there in the same place.
l wonder If he is making a habit of
visiting Johnny Chuck? If he is I
want to know it. / may be able to
corner that long-legged rascal at
last" This thought seemed to be a
pleasant one, for Reddy smacked his
lips two or three times.
The following morning Reddy was
hiding where he could see that corner
of the old stone wall. Just after
jolly, round, red Mr. Sun began his
daily climb up in the blue, blue sky
Peter Rabbit visited Johnny Chuck
Again the next morning it happened
Reddy grinned. 1t was a satisfied
sort of grin-in fact, Reddy almos,

was up in the Old Orchard before
daylight. Behind the trunk of an ole
apple tree he lay down. BY peep

that they would reach their house

What Tomorrow Means to You

During the early part of the day
you are bound TO experience a feel

may urge you to attempt more than
you can accomplish, as it is well for
every one to realize his own limita-
tons. Later on in the day the aspects
change, and, while they will not nee
essarily provoke pessimism or en-
gender lack Of effort, they will
enable you to take matter-of-fact
view of dreams which in the morning
appeared to be roseate and full of
promise. Speculation must be avoid
ed, and no obi cations involving
financial responsibilities should be
made. Useful and constructive work
can be accomplished, especially
along research or literary lines

The newest phase Of the application
of sealing wax for decorative pur-
poses is that which applies to costum-
ing, and particularly to dress acces-
sories. Such pretty things can be
done with it, in extensive variety of
coloring. If you have never work ed
in it, 1t will surprise you to learn that
a hat may be trimmed with sealing
wax. Perhaps YOU have seenait done
and know how charming the effect.
The wax is first put through a simple
process of dissolving and then paint
ed on with a brush. Bags. scarfs and
other accessories can be decorated to
match, making sets both individual
and artistic.
Preparing Wax.
1t may interest you. first of all. to
know how to get the sealing wax into
a fluid form which will not harden
too quickly. Denatured alcohol is the
first aid to the painter in wax. The
stick of wax is broken into small
pieces, immersed in denatured alco-
hol and allowed to remain thus for
"a hours, or until in condition to
take up on the brush like an oil
paint. In order that the alcohol will
not ewaporate while the process of

ingredients into a preserve jar and

the wax paint to be very thin, in

that, by mistake, you have made it
too thin, let the solution be exposed
