 There is also common saying that if one breaks out with boils or piiu- pies. the lmeauntss is coming out This is sometimes modified to the belief that the appearance of the hojls on tn" surface ar" an indica- 'ion that blood IS purifying itself from within. Both conceptions are about as prepostcrous as any of the other superstitions that alflict man kind.
 Boils ar educ to germs The germs get into the skin either by way of the blood or through an ab- rasion or cut on the surface of the skin which may be entirely accidcn- tai. Whenever there is spot of lessened resistance 10 disease brought about injury Of the tissue. germs that already are on inc skin may take hold and set up dis turbancc.
 The boil forms due 10 the fact that the germs destroy thcs" tissues and produce matter. The tissue then attempts to wall off the infcc- ton by setting mp a barrier. The matter is held in the walIcduf area under pressure and when the boil comes 10 T head II can be opened and the matter may be released.
 May Infect Blood
 However. far from serving to pur- fly the blood. the blood serves as a focus from which the blood itself may pick up germs and carry them 10 other places. II is also possible through handling the boil badly 10 burst il in such q way that the mat ter will spread over the adjacent skin and other boils will form in th" neighborh ood.
 For this reason it is absolutely important to open q boil under what surgeons call aseptic precau- ti0n5 -- antise LtlC substances must be used 10 kill the germs and 10 protect the neighboring skin. II is also well moi to opc. .re boil until it. has been walled off. as this will prevent the material from spreading under the skin to the ucighhorng tissues.

 Johnny, who is tardy about dress ing in the morning, whose home work frequently is not done, shows an astonishing zeal in such matters aS building q pen for his rabbits. Martha who does not shine in neat ness and efficiency about the house. proves highly competent as chair man of the committee in charge of arrangements for the class party.
 Ii does no good 10 point out to Johnny and Martha these obvious discrepancies in conduct 10 tell them that if they were not SO lazy hey could perform their duties very we'll.
 Our tasK as parents is 10 find out what things our children do with zc~t and spontaneity. and 10 give them as much as possible of tn" activities which are congenal 10 them. Through the good relationship We thus establish and the insight we gain. we will be able to motiyate many hitherto unpleasant tasks through natural interest.
 Some tasks always must remain drudgery. Dish washing. houseWork. the cleaning up of rubbish; no one sincerely regards these as agreeable occupations. But the child can learn 10 do his share with good grace if h" is Eiy :n q decent incentive. The

 Old Mother Nature
 Every one for a long distance Nuo~ that HJuker had arrived It WAS known all through the Green Forest. II Vas known all over the Green Mcadoas, II Was known up al Farmer Browns. Honker makes no secret Of his coming and going, That is how every one knc" that Houker and his flock had returned from their winter home lu the sunny South and had stopped at the pond or Paddy the Beaver deep in the Green Forest.
 It Was surprising how many peo- pI4 found b"y had business at the pond oi Paddy the Beaver. Yes, sir. if was surprIsiHg. Honker and h,s flock had hardly settled on th. smooth water Of Paddys pond when certain folk began fo move that way. r was just Gt dusk that the flock had arrived. Many of inc Green For est folk. as you know ure abroad at night, and most Of tbes" folks at once turned toward Paddy's pond. Eeddy Fox and Mrs. Eeddy left the old Pasture early, but no earlier than did Old Man Coyote and Mrs rg! !ote. All Of them headed straight for he Green Forest.
 "I suppOso Il is foolish 'o go way over there, my dear." said Ea1dy Fox, for I doa't suppose there is a chance in the world that ne shaH be able 10 catch one Of those Gnose."
 'Perhaps not" replied Mrs Red Iy but We certainly Hlu ro' have a chance f We doun go. Of roursn. old Man Coyote and Mrs royote witI be there. l9t you ne,er can felI what will happen
 Fowler the Tobrat. sor-foote1, moving like shadow. headed for Paddy's pond. Buster Bear headed that way So did Mrs. I.ighffoof and the two young Ilghtfo0ts Iightfoo' himself heard the voice Of Houker and longed 10 be there. but he would not leave his retirement Jumper the Hare vas one Of fhe first to arrive. Hoot~ the Great Horned owl started for Paddy's pond as soon as he heard Honker's voice. Billy Mink came hurrying up the Laughing Brook. So il was that by the time H0nker and his flock Were ready for sleep. there were many watchtul eyes pearing out from the shadows around the pond Of Paddy the Beaver.
 Some Of these visitors came open v 10 the waters edge They Were Honkers friends. They had no thought nor desire 10 harm HonkDr or any of his flock. But others there were who kept themselves hidden. IowIer the Bobcat was one. Teddy Fox and Mrs Reddy and Old Man Coyote ani Mrs. Coyote were others.
