into it. Old Man Coyote bounded
forward eagerly. Ahead of him he
caught just a glimpse of a tail dis
appearing around turn in the path.
He bounded forward and whirled
around that turn. His eyes fairly
blazed with eagerness. He could see
up the path for some little distance.
No one was on it. He had been so
sure that he would see some one
there that he simply stood still and
blinked foolishly. Old Nan Coyote
sighed. Then he stood perfectly still.
Not so much as hair of him moved.
He was listening as only Old Man Coy
ote can listen, and at the same time
he was using that wonderful nose of
his to test every Merry Little Breeze
that came his way. Presently he had
a queer feeling. Did you ever have
the feeling that some one was watch
ing you? Well, that was the feeling
Old Man Coyote had. It made him
uncomfortable. It made him uneasy.
Yet he couldn't see any one, he
couldn't hear any one, and he couldn't
small any one. Rather stiff-legged, for
Old Man Coyote was beginning to feel
a little cross. and when he Is cross
he sometimes walks stiff-legged,
he moved along up the cowpath. Just
as ne reached the next turn III the
path he turned his head quickly to
look back. He was just in time to
see a sharp nose withdrawn in the
bushes. At first Old Man Coyote
was very angry. He growled. Then
he turned and marched back more
legged than before. He marched
back to the place where he had seen
the sharp face peering out from the
bushes. The hair along his back
and on his shoulders rose as he drew
near this spot. Perhaps you have
seen the hair on the back of dog
rise.
Come out of there" snarled Old
Man Coyote. Come out Of there
and fight"
No one answered. Old Man Coyote
poked his sharp nose in among the
bushes. A strange scent tickled that
sharp nose. It was the scent of the
stranger. But instead of making him
angry, that scent filled him with a
great eagerness. He wanted to meet
this stranger. He wanted to become
acquainted.
II won't hurt you" he said softly.
/ won't you be friends?"
But there was no answer.

"Gosh," moaned Roberta, Il can't
stand Bessies babble any longer. she
just too much to be borne.
"Why to hear her talk, you'd think
she was going with the grandest man
In the worId-that he had the most
stunning car ever built-and that they
had the most perfect lives possible.
LAS matter of fact she's engaged
to that dumbell Tom Grayson, who
never going to be anything better than
his fathers hired help all his life.
And they have bumpety old fiivver.
And they go to the movies and think

But why?" inquired Grace mildly.
What harm does Bessie do you to be

But she's such sap" cried Ro.

only thinks she is. Nobody could be
happy running around with mug
like Tom"
Grace looked bewildered, as we'll she
might. For IL Bessie thinks She
happy, then Bessie is happy, and
there's no argument about it.
Roberta Is so irritated over Bessie S
complacence that she takes every OPP
portunity to tell the fluttering little
maiden what fool she is--to let her
know that Tom Is nothing but an
errand boy--tO speak cOntemptuouSly
of the battered flivver.
Now why does Roberta do this? She
says she simply can't bear to see Bes-
sic make such a fool of herself. She
lies.
AS a matter of fact she's irritated
that Bessie should be SO convinced of
her own happiness she can't possibly
notice Roberta's great superiority.
Roberta, you see, has thousands of
attractive men at her feet, rides in
the smartest cars possible, and has
every prospect of making a brilliant
marriage.
Yet she's not bit happy. The only
pleasure she gets is from the admiring
tributes and envy of others. Bessie
doesn't see anything about Roberta to
be envied.
She Is completely happy and Roberta
seeks to spoil that happiness with her
nasty little jibes and digs. OF course
Roberta doesn't realize this entirely.
She thinks vaguely that she's doing
little Bessie service.
But way underneath that superficial
thought there lies desire to make
Bessie realize how enviable is her

OF course this refined cruelty is at its
worst among the slum and tenement

treated just as badly. When the dog

Man Coyote forgot all about the big
footprints over in the Green Forest.
He could think of nothing but these
strange footprints in the Old Pasture.
He didn't know how to account for
them. But then, he didn't know how
to account for that other voice so like
his own. He had no room inside for
thought of anything except how lonely
he suddenly felt. He hadn't felt that
way since his first two or three weeks
on the Green Meadows. The fact is,
hearing that voice and seeing those
footprints had made Old Man Coyote
homesick.
He lost appetite. Now when Old
Man Coyote loses his appetite some

Edgar was patient, or tried to be.
He looked at his wife and knew that
he loved her. She was a butterfly
wife, it is true, but that made no diff
ference to him. He had chosen her
and she was Helen's mother.
Dorothy, listen to me for a minute,

Il might have known you'd bring
that up. But it has no bearing on the
subject; none whatever"
why hasn't it? You thought you

II thought l was; now l know"
Edgar looked at her searchingly.
If he were certain about this, if he
thought she was stable enough to
know her own mind, he would step
out and leave her to Tony. He wanted
her to be happy. He had no desire to
hold her against her will. But he
felt that he knew Dorothy better than
she knew herself, and he did believe
that this was no more than a tempo
rary f1ame-up, an infatuation that she
would get over in short time.
And so Edgar decided to fight, too.

How to Lose Weight" will be useful
to them, but it will soon be found that
different individuals lose at different
rates, although they may use the
same reducing methods. Some may
need to exercise harder and diet more
strictly than others. The results of
this group study and experimentation
in reducing will make an intensely
interesting and valuable report which
might be written up as magazine

The underweights may send for
copies of "How to Gain Weight" and
they should check up the progress of
each member in the same way as that
recommended above for the heavy
weights. The aim of both these groups
should be to graduate into the normal

that all should try to weigh the same.

Everyday Law Cases
When Win "Smdrt Money" Be
Awarded As Damages?
BY THE COUNSELLOR.
BY THE COUNSELLOR

Fred and Jimmy were rival suitors
for the hand of Mary Allen. For a
while Mary was impartial and went
out equally with both admirers. Then
Fred sprang into the lead and Jimmy
was vexed.
Jimmy's vexation was enhanced
when Mary announced her engage
ment to his rival. Shortly thereafter,
the two met, and heated words re-
suited, ending in a fist fight. Fred,
the successful sutton, was badly beaten
and later sued Jimmy for $4,000
damages.
At the trial, the court instructed the
jury that if they found the evidence
in favor of Fred, he could recover
damages to compensate him not only
for his injuries, but also "vindictive
and punitive damages" If the assault
and battery was wanton, unprovoked
and excessive in it's nature. Jimmy's
attorney took exception to this in
struction, claiming that thereby he
would be paying twice for the same
injuries.
But the court allowed the instruc-
ton to stand, stating:
"In certain actions, IL the defendant,
in committing the wrong complained
of, acted recklessly or willfully or
maliciously with a design to Cypress
or injure the plaintiff, the jury, in
fixing the damages, may disregard
the rule of compensation, and beyond
that may, as a punishment to the de-
PENDANT and as protection to society
against the violation of personal
rights and social order, award such
additional damages as in their discre-
ton they may deem proper. Such
damages are called exemplary or
punitive, or smart money
"In some jurisdictions, however, the
additional damages are merely regard
ed as an increased compensation for
injury to the feelings in view of the
circumstances of each particular case.
In few jurisdictions, punitive dam
ages are not allowed. and in some,
the regulation of punitive damages
has been provided for by statute"
