It was a long time since Reddy Fox had been over near Farmer Browns henyard. It was so long that Reddy felt sure that by this time Farmer Brown and Farmer Browns Boy must have forgotten that foxes like chickens. Reddy had had very good reason for keeping away from Farmer Browns. His home and the home of Mrs. Reddy was on Farmer Browns land. Reddy knew that Farmer Browns Boy knew where that home was, But Farmer Browns Boy never had bothered it, and so Reddy felt that it was wise not to bother Farmer Browns Boy.
 But now that snow and ice had come and it was real winter Wcath- TT. Reddy was finding it more diff cult to get something to eat. There were many days when both he and Mrs. Rcddy were hungry all day long. Now Mrs. Reddy had cut one foot on bit of sharp ice and could not ge- around as spryly as usual. Reddy was sharing his food with her and some of their meals were pretty slim,
 But despite this Reddy might not Lave thought of going to Farmer Browns hcnyarl had not q rooster crowed in a most prov oklng way as Reddy was trotting across the Green Meadows this morning.

Mrs. Townsend's Theory
 Is Demolished.

IL was only at first glance that l thought I could understand but a part of the French inscription upon the back Of the photograph which little Mrs. Townsend had brought so excitedly for my inspection. Upon the second reading as l firmly fixed every character in my memory as Lillian had signaled me 10 do, l realized the tremendous significance of the name printed upon the back Of the picture. It was one well known 10 me, and as LiIlian's shoul- der pressed mine while she, too, read the inscription. I knew that she too was inwardIy easping at the sight Of the familiar name.
 "Now!" little Mrs. Townsend ey- claimed. DO you see why I'm so aX- cited. Just imagine. Suppose Miss Lincoln should be she! Can't you ust see the parties I could give and the sensation I could make? T. would be worth a years income 10 put something over like that on Tes- sic Rivers"
 She reminded me irresistibly Of a pretty kitten licking its lips over some cherished tidbit of food. But | realized as l knew Lillian did, that she must not be permitted 10 cher lsh the fantastic illusion she had. l waited however, for IAllian's reply.
 "Yes, I can see them" Lillian answered, smiling, and I am so sorry 10 spoil your pretty theory, But I have a friend in the home city of this young Woman---" she tap ped the picture lightly and I have letter from her which tells me that his girl is in the country The letter was written since Miss Lincoln took up her residence at The Larches. so that conclusively proves the two cannot be the same"
 Mrs. Townsend looked at her with disappointment in her eyes which also held distinct respect.

T certainly am pleased to meet you at last" Roy Jefferson said, pumping Lily's hand up and down with vim and vigor. T certainly am.-Id like you to meet the wife,
 too. She's Q great little woman, Miss Lexington. You and Sadye would get along fine, wouldn't they, Pat. eh?'
 Pat said nothing.
 Silence fell upon the little group. I'm expectin' Sadye to drop in here most any minute,' Roy letter. son went on, after an uncomfortable pause. She going down town to 1 buy herself a spring suit, so she tells me this morning at breakfast. I'll
 be down about for some jack she says. Cool, eh?"
 He winked at Lily. and Lily wink
 cd back at him. She liked him in spite of his loud cap and shirt, in spite of his loud way of talking. He seemed to be smart and pleasant and sincere.
 But a second later. when Mrs.
 Roy Jefferson walked into the ga- rage on the highest heels that Lily had ever seen, she disliked her thoroughly and completely She knew she was "Sadye" the minute she came in, for her husband
 called her by her name and threw an arm around her plump figure as she snuggled up against the wide,
 candy-striped silk shirt he wore.
 Sadye Jefferson must have been 30 years old when Lily first met her, and she was dressed like a flappcr of r. Her skirts barely reached her plump knees and she wore the thinnest of pink chiffon stockings. Her black satin dress was too small for her and showed too plainly a figure that was all curves. On the front of her black satin turban was a large pearl buckle, and pearl. earrings were screwed

Cause and Effect

Among the mental diseases which can be correlated with physical changes in the human body are gen. eral paralysis or softening of the brain, which is responsible for 10 per cent of admissions to institu- tions for the insane and which re- suits invariably from syphilis. Men tai disturbance associated with eX- treme old age is responsible for r per cent of admissions to hospitals and to institutions. The excessive use of alcohol or of drugs is asso- ciated with per cent of admissions; diseases of the brain, another 5 per cent; epilepsy and various infec- tions constitute the remainder.
 The definition has been advanced that the insane person is one who has lost a certain amount of ability that he once had. On the other hand, the feeble minded person never had any ability to lose in the first place. Feeble-mindedness can- not be cured; it can only be bene- fted and alleviated by appropriate care. Sixty per cent of it is inher- tied and represents a defect i'll the parents stock.
 Classification
 Among all of the subjects on which the public is not well inform ed, the classification of various grades of mental effectiveness is apparently the most confused.
 Scientists class as idiots persons who are below two years in men, tai age and who cannot live with out care.
 Imbeciles have a mental age from three to seven years.
 Morons are not persons afflicted with besttiality, but persons of men, tai age between seye and twelve.

into her ears. She had a pretty pink, plump face and a high soprano voice. She giggled constantly when | she talked.
 How do you do?" she greeted Lily. and laughed a little as she spoke. Roy and I have heard so much about you. So much" "Is that so?" asked Lily. in voice that was as hard and cold as shower of hair stones. She hated the idea of Pat talking her over with these two friends of his. And what had he told them about her? Had he told them how she had been running after him for weeks-climb- ing into his cab, stealing his photo graph aud refusing to give 1t back to him?"
 T think we ought to go, Pat" she said, drawing herself up, and lifting her chin so that she seemed to look down from a great height upon the three people who stood be- side the car She held out her hand 10 the Jettersons and said good bye to them without the shadow of a smile on her face.
 What do you mean by talking me over with those two people? 2" she asked Pat furiously, the min ute they were out in the sunshine once more. Don't you know that a man ought never to discuss q wo- man with another man. The idea of talking about me to that Jet terson man-and his withholding wife"
 "Is she withholding Pat asked mildly. taking a brier pipe from his pocket and putting it into his mouth. With his left hand he began to fill the bowl of 1t as he talked. "She's a. mighty nice girl-Sadye Jefferson, whether she's withholding or not. Slle and Roy are my best friends, and ten minutes ago you said you'd love my friends because they were my friends. That's why ] wanted you to see them-and you have seen them. But you don't even like them.'
 Lily shook her beautiful head. T and she never could be any friend of mine unless she wore longer skirts and stopped wearing pink stockings | on the street. I think she's terrible" Pat struck q match and lit his pipe-all this with his left hand, as | l,1 1 tic with his right.
 Do clothes make so much differ ence?" he asked, and Lily nodded.
 You can tell whether a woman's lady or not very often. just by the things she wears. and the way she wears them" she answered serious | ly.
 This day. she said a half hour later, when they stopped the car in grassy lane that ran along beside an apple orchard, was made just ] for us, Pat. The god of things-as- | they-seldom- must have decided to give us one perfect day to our , selves, and this is 1t. Just look at l that bank of clouds-it's like sil- yer"
 But Pat had no eyes for the sil- ver-white bank of clouds that lay along the eastern horizon.
 He was looking at Lily and he vas laughing to himself. After all | this talk about Sadye Jetterson's pink stockings, I notice you're wear ing them yourself" he said with a chuckle.
 It was true. Lily's stockings had been bought to match the sea- shell pink sports dress she wore. And they were just the color of Sadye Jetterson's chiffon ones! ! She flushed.
 It's all right when they match your dress" she said. And she had on a black dress. What makes you be so horrid to me this morn ing. Pat?"
 You're not so tender and sweet to me-" Pat replied. You accuse
