 AS if you could!" cried Jumper. You may be quick in the use of those sharp hoofs. but either Billy the Mink or Shadow the Weasel would be out of tha way before you could hit them What 1 want is the usc of your scent"
 "rhe what 2" cried Lghtfoot.
 "The use of your scent" replied Jumper,
 What do you mean" asked Lightfoot.
 It's very simple replied Jumper. If these fellows follow mo they will do il by following my scent. l cant help leaving some scent wherever l step. If I went along ahead of you, and you and your family follow. you i.ill leave yonr scent and the deer scent will be so much stronger than my scent that if those fellows come over here they won't be able to tell in which direction have gone. Your scent will kill my scent. How about it t''

 There's absolutely nothing for you to do," I told her. and she went past me hurriedly. her face turned away from me. For an instant l wondered if she purposely had averted her face, wondered also If my impression of something tense and strained in her manner was a fisment of my overstrained imagin- ation. There had been nothtg 10 up- set her save perhaps her theory that she somewhere had seen the red bearded man. but she had had far too much experience with men Of his ilk to make the recognition Of one of them disturbing to her. At any rate, told myself there was nothing more absurd than for me to worry over something which in all probability was not even keep ing Lillian awake. I had two prob- lens of my own to face. the minor one of deciding what punishment should give Junior for running away, and the major one of the conflict with Dicky over my tutoring Of Eleanor Lincoln. This had been foreshadowed by his explosion over the telephone when he learned that my work for Philip Veritzen had been expanded to include the giving of lessons in the history of the drama. and I knew that I could put off the rest of the controversy no longer than his arrival in the eve ming.
 The problem ot Junior did not give me much thought. He had not meant to disobey, and my only rea- son for giving him any punishment at all was to make him realize the necessity of his staying within the bounds set for him. So it was in a very lenient mood that climb. ed the stairs to my small sons room.

New Britain herald., 1928-01-20

Jumper speaks truly. It sometimes sreins as if life is one little trick 2 ter another. It is just as true of the little folk of the Green Mea- daws and the Green Forest as it is with us humans. Where skill and strength fail. q little trick will often Nin.
 Jumper tho Hare was in the yard Of Lightfoot the Deer Lightfoot and Jumper are friends. Neither is afraid of the other. as there has never been any reason why they should not be friends. Jumper, flee ing from Shadow the Weasel and Billy Mink. had thought of Light foot and a way in which Lightfoot could help him. Now he had rcach- ed the deeryard and here was Light foot and Mrs. I.ightloot and the two young Lightfoots.
 You look frightened. Brother Jumper" said Lightfoot, staring at him with his great soft eyes,
 'I am frightened or. at least, ! was frightened replied Jumper. You See. only short time ago l had a very narrow escape"
 Lightfoot's big eyes grew bigger than ever. From whom ?' he de- manded, and his voice sounded an- Aious.

BEAUTY How and Why
HOW FINGER NAIL POLISH IS MADE
 Ry Ann Alypla


 Do you prefer liquid nail polish to the solid or to the powdered kind? Yes! We'll it is up to you. And good ness knows there are lots of fine makes of finger nail varnishes on the market.
 In most cases 1t Is just as well to buy the ready-ma article as to try out . formula Of your own. since 1t is possible to purchase good prepar- ations at any good pharmacy or de- partment store. At the end of this article, SO that you may have all idea how such polishes are made, l shall give you sample formula from which you may have a liquid polish compounded by your favorite pharmacist.
 Al a general thing. these polishes are really dainty varnishes. made by dissolving a wax. or high grade gum, in | suitable liquid such as chloroform or banana oil. The es- sential point is that the solvent must be volatile. and capable of entirely dissolving the gum or wax. Of course, the better the ingredients. the finer the finished product. After the principal constituents have been mixed. the preparation is perfumed to suit.
 Brush the liquid quickly on the nails. When necessary to remove it.. wipe of with the polish itself, or with a little chloroform or ether.
 Liquid nail polish or varnish:
 Paraffin wax, 60 grains. / Chloroform, ? fluid ounces.
 Oil of rose, 3 drops.

 BIC IMPROVEMENT
ALASkANS ARE DIFFERENT AND BALANCE IS IN THEIR FAVOR,
 STATES souRpoUGH

"Al1 things seem to be conspiring toward better times for Alaska in the way of greater capital investment and larger development, said Frank Beck CT, old time newspaper man of Fair banks and Iditarod who, after an ab- sence of 16 years is back in the North once more. He arrived in Seward on the Admiral Evans this mornning and will continue on to Fairbanks tomor- row. He announces that he is in search of magazine material of which there is a world and to spare. He hopes also to establish a mining news bureau to get live Alaska mining news direct to the mining papers of the States.
 Speaking first of the gigantic op- erations on foot in the Fairbanks dis trict," he said there is no question but what this great rehabilitation of what was supposed to be worked-out territory will have salutary effect upon other vast stretches of placer ground from the lower Kuskokwim to Birch Creek on the Arctic Circle. The new method of thawing gravel will revolutionize the whole placer indus try on the Inside

Good legitimate prospects here should be incorporated and develop ment stock offered to the American public as legitimate gambles with the promises of nature. The mines of Nevada, Utah, California, Arizona, Colorado and elsewhere have been and are being opened in that way. If the big mining papers of the States can be furnished regularly with au- thentic mining news, we can get the people thinking Alaska, where now they seldom hear of it unless you have

 FOR BANDITS

SHANGHAI, Aug. 9.-An anti bandit drive, aimed to eradicate 100000 bandits, has been inarg- urated by the Chinese Nationalist authorities.
 During recent weeks, close on the heels of the cessation of mili- tary activity throughout the provinces of Kiangsu, Anhwei and Honan, bandits and kidnap- pers have become the scourge of country folk in these areas. The bandits are said to travel in gangs numbering several hundred. killing people and loot ing villages as they traverse the provinces. The robbers are we'll armed, carrying rifles and pis- tols and plentiful supplies of ann intuition.

SAYS ENGLISH
 GIRLS TOO SHY
 FOR THE MOVIES

LONDON, Aug. 9.-English girls are too sny and too sincere to achieve fame in moving pictures.
 With this pronouncement, Sin. clair Hill, England's veteran film director, has just dashed cold wa ter all over the ambitions of pret- ty applicants who are swarming British studios by thousands.
 MT. Hills indictment is publish ed in the Manchester Evening News" He writes:
 There is something abou. Eng fish women which is too reserved and of course the whole English nation is steeped in kind of charming hypocrisy. The film actress must give her physical beauty on the screen. She must rut her beauty in the shop win dow. American girls achieve this handsomely, but there IS some thing indefinable about the aver age English girl which units her for film fame"
 Casting directors are more like ly to find potential film talent in the palais de danse than among girls of the upper and middle class 'es of English society, he eontin- ues.
 Englishmen, however, "t fer the finest interpretation of male parts and win the favor of audiences ev- erywhere.'
 "The majority of leading men i1 Hollywood are undeniably os Brit ish extraction" says Mr. Hill.
 Young men leaving English pub lie schools and universities are in undating British film production organizations with applications to start in the executive side of the business rather than on the screen, however.
