There IS Room For Humor in the Modem Home

The modern living room begins to smile little. Wild and ferocious an- imals. roam about the bookshelves, bask in the light of shaded lamps, domestic pets sit contentedly on cigaret stands and watch milady powder her nose from the top of the dressing table.
 But these friendly beasts did not wander in from the jungle nor do they steal in through the kitchen door, No, they come from the smart shops along the avenue. Their tiny animal souls are compassed in brass or porcelain, woodsor glass, and they all are a bit ridiculous.
 An ichthyosaurus, one inch high, and two long. made of green glass spotted with tiny red freckles, snoops about the window of neg lisee shop in company with glass mammoths. flying lizards and very long serpents, at least three inches long. In a day or so these prehis- toric creatures will break through the sedate womans objections and U llOlllt WllI to iliehhN 'iNi "INN-N ment a little less severe.
 For Laughter Only
 Shining mice. about as big as penny. twist scandalously long tails over their brass ears as they nibble on serious literature displayed in book store window. And the beloved dodo squats on it's tiny brass feet waiting to entice itself into some- ones living room, where it will live perfectly useless existence doing no more than making some grown man or woman smile on occasion.
 The vogue for these tiny animals | Is based on sheer amusement. Yet 1 they have won their way Into the most proper drawing rooms where they consort pleasantly with family portraits and Chippendale furniture. Of course, the modern perpendicular furniture is known to like to nave glass giraffes and porcelain Sealy- hams play about on it's fiat surfaces. Surprising as it may seem, mice from Austria and tiny black elephants from singapore can live on the same

Cubby Bear had been awake for three days. I do not mean by that that he had been awake all of three days. What I do mean is that it was three days since he had aWak- ened from the long winter sleep which is called Information. Ev.r since he had been wandering about with no purpose whatever It Was ell aimless. Now and then le would lay down for a nap. He had felt no hunger when he aWoke. Perhaps this was just as well. for there was little enough to eat. The reason he had had no hunger was because his stomach had been idle so long that it had shrunk to al most nothing. Now however, at the end of three days it was begin ming to make itself known.
 Cubby knew where there ought 10 he certain delicious roots that he could dig up. He made straight for fhis place. His appetite came to him with a rush now. The nearer ne got to this bush, the hungrier he grew He even forgot to be cau- tious. So he came bursting out into d little hollow near the Laughing Brook and stopped short. Some one else was there ahead of him, At first he thought it was the big Bear that had frightened him the day he came out of his winter sleep. But presently a Merry Little Breeze came tickling his nose and bringing Bear It was Mother Bear, There was no doubt about it--it was Moth CT Bear, Cubhy looked around for his twin sister but Fe didn't See her anywhere, Then he startcl forward to join Mother Bear in digging up those delicious roots.
 A deep, rumbly, grumbly grow was his greeting. IL stopped Cubby short. It wasn't pleasant thai growl, There was no love in it More than this. it wasn't ev"r friendly. Cubby stopped abruptly with his eyes popping right out Could it be that his mother didnn know him!
 Its me" said Cuhhy in a not too loud voice.
 Tn reply Mother Bear lifted he, lips and showed her teeth and agair growled that rumhly Srumbly grow that made such an uncomfortabl feeling along Cubby's backbone.
 Don't you know me-" he ven tured once more.
 This time Mother Bear took tW or three quick steps toward hin and showed more of her teeth thd before. Cubby waited to see n more. He turned and away he wen as fast as his legs could take hiu He forgot all about those lusciou roots. He forgot all about bein hungry. He just wanted to be some where else and he was proceedin to get there as fast as he could

YESTERDAYS ANSWERS

Before supper they returned. Where had they been? They had followed the brook up to where it came, a bubbling spring, from the side of the hill. They had followed it's winding, rocky course down through deep wooded glades, through pohbly shadows and dark pools. They had followed it through green meadows, past on old mill where once it's water had turned the willwheel, until at last they had come to where it slid into the river four miles away
 What had they found? Their jar was full: minnows, a sucker, a caddis fly case, some damsel fly nymphs, two newts, a small turtle and masses of pink jclly-like eggs still clinging to the stones on which the boy shad found them.
 Is there a brook in your vicinity Let the children follow it, If they are little go with them, but let them explore and discover for them selves. If. like Micky and Tom they are old enough to go on their own, so much the better, send them by themselves adventuring.
 To follow brook is an expert ence well sealed to the chld's world It is at once both safe and thrilling It suggests d dozen interests anG produces at the same time rich ma. terial for their pursuit.

YOUR HEALTH

Among the earliest symptoms ol eycstrain are twitching Of the eye lids and face and even movements like those of St. Vitus dance.
 Eyestrain is usually strain of the nerves involved from use of the eyes. In a consideration of the subject, pr. Edward Jackson points out that eyestrain is usually asso- riated with some defect of the eyes that has not been properly corrected by suitable eyeglasses.
 In some cases children have nausea and vomiting from eye strain when riding on electric or steam trains and the condition IS dismissed with the simple state ment that the child has car sickness. Almost everyone realizes that head aches may be due in many instances to eyestrain
 During school life, the child may use the eyes so much in study and under conditions of bad illumina- ton. that it develops constant head aches. Nearsiehtedness tends to de- velop at this time because of undue and continuous exercise of conNers- ence of the eyes.
 If one reaches early adult hte without conspicuous signs of eye strain. the question as to whether | or not it will develop depends | largely on thA occupation. Those who live chiefly outdoors escape. al though if they have a high degree of astismatism, they may develop this condition. Occupations such as catalogue work, typewriuns. book 1 keeping. school teaching. the Lne mechanical trades, journalism, li- braryshin and similar indoor tasks rcnuire a great deal of reading. which encourages the development of eyestrain.
 Whenever person in such an occupation develops bad nutrition loss of appetite. ancmia and head aches. an inquiry should be made into the condition of the eyes as a part of the complete examination.
 Everyone knows that after the age of 4o the tissues begin to change and to repair themselves with more difficulty than previously After this age the eyes should be examined at fairly frequent inter vals in order that they may not be strained unduly before proper glass cs are prescribed. The person who has been accustomed 10 doing with, out glasses all his life up 10 this time is likely to put off tho use O glasses as long as possible.
