Now, of course, such a rumor didn't t
get to Old Man Coyotes ears right
away. You see, by this time his neigh
bors were too much afraid of him to
stop to gossip. But at last Sammy Jay
came over to the Old Pasture. Sammy
had heard this rumor and he wanted
to settle it for himself as to whether
or not it was true. He found Old Man
Coyote lying down on his doorstep.
Good morning. Neighbor Coyote.
We're you ever in two places at the
same time?" said Sammy.
Old Man Coyote sat up abruptly.
whats that?" he demanded.
Il asked" repeated Sammy. ''if you
ever were in two places at the same
time."
Don't be sillyr snapped Old Man
Coyote. 'Of course not. Nobody
could be in two places at the same
time. If I'm here / can't be there,
and if I'm there 1 can't be here"
Just the same" persisted Sammy

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
BY ROBERT CULLEN.

The following postscript inspire me
to write another article addressed TO
the nursing mother who is torn be-
| tween the decision to wean or to con-
tinue nursing her baby. A mother
needs this constant reinsurance that
she is doing the right thing.
Mrs. p. H. writes: You can't realize
| how much good you are doing. Mrs.
| Eldred! When l got up after my
| baby's arrival my milk went back on
me (of course. tried to do too muchh
| and | was just on the verge of wean'
| ing the baby when your article of en-
couragement to new mothers ap-
| peared. 1t encouraged me so much
that did not wean the baby; my milk
| came back and the baby did beautl-
| fully. | have you to thank for that.
1t happens almost always that the
first two weeks of nursing the mother
has an over-abundance of milk. The
breasts are swollen and seem even
more engorged with milk than they
really are. Then this swelling goes
down, the mother begins her daily
round at household duties, now COM
plicated by the new baby. 1t Is no
more than natural that this would
for the time have an effect on the
nursing function. The mother is
tired and nervous. her milk does not
seem as abundant TO her. the baby
cries. and in despair she decides that
the bottle is the only solution.
If she would only get grip on her
self and pull through the next two
or three weeks she would find most
of her troubles ended. She needs more
rest Let the houseWork go for the
time and let her devote herself to
caring for herself and the new baby
Husband" got along while she was
in bed-let him get along for couple
of weeks longer. and in that time, If
she is sensible, and gives herself
chance to recuperate, she will flnd
the milk coming back in the usual
abundance, the baby satisfied with his
daily rations and sleeping and gain
ing as he should.
If the mother Is having trouble
with her milk how much more trouble
Is possible with a strange food like
cows milk. If the mother is really
Ill and the baby starving because of
lack of nourishment, it is more SEN
sible to wean. But this is far from
the usual case. The first six weeks
constitute a period OF readjustment;
the mother to the new baby and the
added cares of the home: the baby to
his new environment. All adjustments
are difficult, and one must take this
into consideration. Don't feel that be-
cause the baby cries this week he is
going to cry next week. Next week
he may sleep all through the day and
night without a whimper, except at
meal time.
Hold fast to regular nursing periods.
Watch the baby's weight. If the baby
is not gaining sufficiently and seems
dissatisfied before the three hours are
up, give a Complementary feeding
after the musings usually the 6 pm.

But continue to nurse regularly, firm

| cubistic ideas of art. They look as If
| they had all been cut by means Of a

| they are often no whit less f,minine
than the curling sort, because their
very angularity rather accentuates

bodies of the women who wear them.
The diagonal line is greatly in evi

has bought new wraps or frocks this
Spring or Summer owns somethine

There are long diagonal tucks or
stitchings across the back of many
of the new coats. The material of
evening frocks is often draped so as
to give a long, straight diagonal lire
across the front.
And in spite Of the continued favor
With which some women regard the

Willow green is spoken of in Paris
as a color likely to be much worn

The Frenchwoman realizes that
green's in general are more becoming

Frenchwoman is seldom fair. But
this shade of willow green is one of
the verdant hues that may be worn
successfully by the brunette as well
as the blonde, providing the brunette
in question is not prejudiced against
the iudicious use of a little makeup.
The lighter shades of blue are also
spoken of in France as being more be-
coming to blondes than brunettes. 1t

ing: Twenty drops tincture of capsi-
cum, one dram tincture of Jaborandi
20 drops tincture of cinchona, one

You know it isn't so bad when a
girl feels superioT-that's bad enough,
Heaven knows-and keeps quiet about
it. But it's terrible when she reminds
you of her gracious condescension.
It's criminal. There ought to be
law against it.
Pamela came from England. and
that gave her something to talk about
from the minute she arrived. She de.
scended on large hotel in New York,
and after presenting several letters of
introduction began to get in with peo-
pie who made social life possible for
her.
Gradually she began to be seen at

The boys gave her rush. The girls
gave her a once over and asked her
to tea.
Finally there was a gorgeous house

got bid. 1t was there that the show
down took place. 1t was there that
she earned her we'll deserved title
We were all sitting around a log
fire and the talk turned on ancestors.
Billy Gray had lot of "reminiscences
on his. Comic stories. you know.
What a funny lot they'd been, etc.
Pamela stirred slightly and spoke:
"It seems too quaint to hear you talk.
ing about ancestors. All those funny
old men. Maybe you'd like to hear
about mine"
And we were swept away in a per-
feet flood of "reminiscences as to the
glories of Pame,as s family. Thicker
and thicker she piled on the glory.
Billy leaned over and asked her ear.
nestly: Gosh. Pamela, | had no idea
l was sitting within actual reach of
royalty. DO you mind if touch you?'
He pecked at her gingerly and every
one shrieked.
But Pamela answered with the
greatest seriousness: "Oh. Billy, don t
be absurd. l don't feel one bit supe-
rior to any of you here; that is. don't
allow ancestors to interfere with my
friendship with you. I'm fond of all
of. you. no matter what we have
sprung from.
Con you bear It? She was so
wrapped up in that beautiful, lofty
picture of herself and family that
she'd lost all sense of humor. She'd
missed Billy's joke entirely. She'd &C.
cepted it literally. Can you imagine
the razz she got? Doesn't it make
you want to write just to think
about it?
It's a good warning. though, to re-
member. For many a girl who hasn't
hailed from British nobility is just as
snobbish as Pamela. Many a dame
will let the boys know graciously that
she's perfectly prepared to be friends
with them, even if her father does
own half dozen cars
Nothing in the world is so unbecom-
ing as gracious patronage. If you
feel you're doing anybody big favor
by being friends with him, get over it.
Once you've let the honored one
know the extent of your copdescen-
sion, you'll have no more need to con-
descend. The lucky youth will have
faded out of the picture, overcome. no
doubt. by the honor you have done
him.
