side by side in the snow over in the

Jumper had just opened his
mouth to reply when both suddenly
sat up very straight with their long
ears pointing straight up at the sky
in the listening position that you
all know. Did you hear some
thing" whispered Potter.

Il don't know" replied Peter.
Both looked anxiously this way
and that way and the other way. but
they saw nothing to be afraid OF.
Finally they settled down again and
concluded that they had been mis-
taken. You were asking something
about Buster Bear said Jumper.
II asked If Buster had gone to

come from Johnny Chuck's house
and the Smiling Pool. Johnny Chuck
has gone to bed for the winter and
Jerry Muskrat Is shut up under the

full of you to send them to me, but

He made me no answer for long

towering over me.

demanded hoarsely. "A stick or q

you talking like that to me. Thanks

"Oh" l gasped. You mustn't

There was genuine shock in my
face. for there was something wild
in his manner which never had been
there. and I had the queer feeling
that unwittingly l had leashed
something wild, which 1t would be
exceedingly difficult to tether again.
Il should have agreed with you

He broke off abruptly, looked
down at me steadily for few Sec

his hands grasped mine and pulled
me up facing him.

How to Keep It.
Causes of Illness

Investigators Of personal hygiene
have found that too little attention
Is given to the floors in both mer.
camille and manufacturing establish
ments.
Strangely enough, employees who
stand on heavily padded. soft carpet
complain more OF aching feet than
those who stand on concrete or stone
floors.
Moreover. carpets collect dust and
require constant vacuum cleaning,
which unfortunately is too seldom
given to them. A thick padding un-
der the carpet has too much give
and makes the feet burn.
Cold and Noisy
Concrete, marble and tile are cold
and tire the feet because they have
no give. They are noisy since ey
echo sound and they are dangerous
because they become slippery with
moisture.
Wood makes a good floor. but it
tends to crack and collect dirt. and
cannot be easily cleaned. When
wood floors are heavily waxed. their
appearance Is improved. but at once
there arises the dangers from slip

The newer type Of flooring con-
tanning rubber or cork have been
developed in response to the demand
created by difficulties with floors

l don't see how he dares look the
rest of us in the face. It's all very
well for him to say that he can't
get food enough in the winter. but
if you ask me, l believe that is just
an excuse, and mighty poor one
at that. Were l as big as Buster Bear
and as strong as he is ! shouldn't
ever worry about getting food TO
eat. l hope he's gone to bed, because
he is one less to be on the watch for.
Do you know if he has, jumper"
Once more Jumper the Hare open
ed his mouth to reply, and once
made a flying leap. while at the
same time Peter jumped in another
direction. Both jumped barely In
time. With a grunt two great fore
feet landed right where they had
been sitting. "Woof! Woof!" cried
great rumbly, grumbly voice which
came from way down in the throat
of none other than Buster Bear. 1t
was the unexpected answer to
! Peters question.
"Woof, Woof." cried Buster. Il
almost got you fellows that time. I'd
like to know what business it is OF
yours, Peter Rabbit, whether I've
gone to bed or nol.'
At safe distance Peter had stop
ped to look back. His eyes were pop
ping out of his head so that he look
ed really funny. II Buster Bear had
dropped right down out of the sky
Peter wouldn't have been any more
surprised. 1t was hard work even
now to believe that he wasn't
dreaming. Where Buster had come
from he couldn't imagine.
But 1t was all very simple. Buster
had been right behind big tree
trunk in a heavy shadow when Peter
and Jumper had come along. They
had sat down on the other side of
that, and of course they hadn't seen
Buster. When they had first been
suspicious and looked around Buster
had fairly held his breath. He would
have liked both or either one for
a good meal. 1t wasn't that he was
so hungry. Actually. he was fat. But
he knew that the more he could
eat before he went to sleep, the
better off he would be. and hare and
rabbit would have been very nice.
So he had done his best to catch
the two cousins.
Wool! Woof," said Buster
Come here, Peter, and I'll answer
your question"
mo thanks" replied Peter, ats
answered enough as 1t is And I
won't take back n word of what |
said. If you're going to bed I wish
you'd so to bed and leave honest
folk in peace"

There Is nothing which is so tense,

which falls between a man and a
woman, who, alone together, find
creeping over them the memories
of past chapters in their lives which
they cannot forget even If they
wish to.
For several minutes after Hugh
had seated himself beside me upon
the bench. by the stream in the
grove where we had been served
with luncheon, he spoke no word,
nor did ]. 1t was as if with COM
mon consent we gave up the futile
struggle of keeping up commonplace
talk when there was something vital
between US which must be thrashed
out before we parted.
This feeling that there were
things which must be settled be-
tween us had been growing upon me
ever since Hugh's outburSt against

been silenced by my resentment of
his structures, and he perfunctorily
had begged my pardon. But / had

before our afternoon together was
over should hear things from the
lips of my old and true friend which
1t would need all my finesse to man

But for a long time after we sat
down upon the bench. he spoke no
word at all. and presently l felt my
self so tense in the nervous wonder
~ to what he meant to say. that

Find 1t Necessary
To Raise Fee for
Potato Inspection

Announcing the necessity of in
creasing the fee for shipping point in
spection of table-stock potatoes in
Aroostook county from $3.50 to 81 per
car, Charles NJ. White, chief of the
division of markets of the State de-
partment of agriculture is sending
out letters to potato shippers of the
State in which he points out that the
$4,000 that was available from State
funds for the inspection work Is near
1y exhausted.
Mr.. White said yesterday in refer
ring to the matter that the cost of the
inspection service had been under
estimated and the available funds
were about, used up, but G. r. War
rem, the supervising inspector, had in
terviewed a number of the shippers
who expressed their willingness to
have the inspection fee raised to 81
per car rather than have the service
discontinuedlo or curtailed.
The letter which has just been sent
out by Mr.. White to all potato ship
pers of the State reads as follows:
This department has always talked
frankly with you people and congrat-
ulate ourselves that you have always
been equally frank with us. The re-
suit has been that we could do BUSH
ness one way or another with prompt
ness and satisfaction. Last fall it
was made clear that there was avail
able $4,000 from State funds for ship
ping point inspection work. The SER

than has been collected in fees. You
can see that this leaves but little Of
the $4,000 to go and come on.
"One Of the largest shippers at
caribou tells of five cars on which he
saved $500 each on account of ship
ping point inspection. At Washburn
the inspector discovered freezing in
jury which the shipper did not know
OF, and had it gone to the receiving
market it Is the shippers opinion
that there would have been a thous-
and dollars loss. And so it goes with
similar stones from Limestone. Fort
Fairfield and Mars Hill. In spite of
the fact that the element of personal
Judgment enters great deal into the
Interpretation of grade defects sew
eral instances have already occurred
where reinspectionsa have tailed ex-
actly with the certificates issued in
Maine. This cannot be expected all
the time; neither can it always be
true that reversals will be kept
around one-half of one per cent. as
is the case up to date.

necessary to plan dropping some OF
the inspectors in order to keep with
