Away she Whtrre0 on stout wings over 10 Paddy's pond. I'll probably have more chance of finding them."
 This was very sensible of Peter. He tried to keep count as Mrs. Wood Duck came and went. but 1t wasn't long before he was all mixed up. T won't know when she gets the last one.' said he forlornly. Hello! She isn't taking this one in her bill It must be she isn't taking any this time. l wonder if it can be that she has them all over 10 the water and has just come back to make sure"
 Mrs. Wood Duck left the tree with her usual swift flight. And then Peter saw something that made him rejoice that he had stayed right where he was. It was Duckling peeping out of the hole Mrs. Wood Duck had just left. A few moments later Mrs. Wood Duck was back This time she di1n't enter the hole. but clung to the edge of it, and that Duckling scrambled right up on her back. And away she went! And Pe- ter knew then that she must have carried one in the same way on her previous trip, for he had seen none in her bill

IMPORTANT MATTERS
Ky Alice Judson Peale

We are so eager to have-our chill dren behave well. appear clever. and reflect credit upon their home that we tend to teach them those habits which will do just this without first giving thoughtful consideration to their value in terms of growth and development.
 the memorizing of rhymes. the art of counting, prompt obedience and an attractive exterior receive a large proportion of our attention.
 But are they really worth the time and energy we spend on them? It would seem that they are not. Re- cent studies of children show more and more the importance of dyna- mic, alert attitudes rather than of fixed patterns of response.
 IL is. for instance. of greater value to the child to learn to express his thoughts in words with freedom aud poise than to be able to repeat ver- batim dozen nursery rhymes.
 It is more important that he should meet people with friendly feelings than that he should be ex- pert in the use of please" and thank you"
 It is better for him to find out through his own initiative and ex- perimentation how to ride his kiddie car, or make his coaster wagon go. than to be taught these things by a supervising grown-up.
 It is easy to teach patterns of re- sponse but it is difficult to be pa tient in allowing children to find their own words, their own use of materials and their own slowly evolving adaptations to social re- quirements.
 We must be content to let the toddler seem less precocious than the reighbors' child. while with new understanding we permit him to fol- low the laws of his natural growth.

, they spill everything they know. But what's on your mind?" Simply this" aaid. Katie sug- gested you people come over to help. and if she thinks it's her idea, she will be in a pleasant mood all the time you are there. So want you to keep 10 yourself the fact that Mrs. Underwood asked you about it this morning"
 Mrs. Ticer lay back in her chair and laughed until the tears stood in her eyes.
 That Katie'll be the death of me yet" she said And this certainly ] will be one good joke on her. No. won't say anything about Mis- 1 Underwood. In fact I've forgotten all about seeing her. I don't believe she was here this morning at all. As far as know. this Is the first I've heard of going over to the farm- house, but I'll be mighty glad to help you out, and so will Ticer and Jerry. Just what do you want us to doo"
 Before I tell you that" I said slowly, T want you 10 know all about this affair. Some surprising things have been happening in the last day or two, things which you ought to know before you come over to the farmhouse"
 She looked at me attentively. An Empty Gesture
 Don't tell me anything you'd rather not" she said with an heroic attempt to stifle the curiosity which looked out from her eyes.
 I'm telling you these things be- cause I want you to know them." I said emphatically. and hurried into q revelation of the identities Of Miss Lincoln" and Mir. Jackson, of the plot against Georges and the precautions we were taking to safe guard our royal visitors at the farm. It was more abridged account than the one I had given Katie. but I saw when I had finished that it had pleased my good neighbor and sated her avid curiosity. .... "I'd guessed a lot about those two," she said, when had finished. "and I'm glad to know the truth. Now. I'll be careful how much of this tell to Ticer and Jerry. They'll have to know some of it, if they're going to help outside there, but there's no sense of their being told too much. They might burst"
 She laughed richly again, then grew sober as her eyes fell upon Noel, still talking to Henry Schmidt. You're going to have a sick boy on your hands if you don't look out" she said gravely. .-. Continued Tomorrow Copyright, 1929, Newspaper Feature Service. Inc.

YOUR HEALTH
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and Of Hy-
 gc;a, the Health Magazine

A man may have receding chin -popularly supposed to be q sign of weakness-due to a great many diff ferent causes.
 In the first place. the centers of justification from which the bones of the body are developed may be interfered with in some manner due to intoxication by poisons or by other methods so that the bone If the lower jaw does not develop. In other instances, malformations of the body of the mother may in terfere with proper development of various portions of the body Of the infant.
 In still otter cases. the infant may assume such a position pre- vious to birth that pressure on its tissues will prevent their growth. Obviously, the infant is in no way responsible for such disorders and these things cannot ordinarily have

any effect upon it's mentality pre>i- ous to birth. However. the idea that a receding chin is a sign of weak ness is well grounded in centuries of superstitions and beliefs.
 There is an old aphorism that if a person believes d thing hard enough that thing will become true. It is likely that the ages of belief in this notion produce in the attitude of parents. of friends and of neigh- lors toward the infant with . re- ccding chin a form of relationship which causes the child himself soon- CT or later to adopt their point of view.
 However, there are innumerabla instances recorded in which per- sons with receding chins have been strong enough mentally to overcome such an attitude and to develop eventually the belief of others Tn their powers. So fixed is this notion that many 8 man has been forced to cultivate and wear constantly q beard in order to hide from the world the absence of prominent chin.
 A forward projecting chin, on the contrary. is regularly believed to indicate pugnaciousness and . truculent spirit The anthropoid apes and savages of Ethiopian types have prognathic or forward projecting lower jaws. The animal about to give battles usually pushes forward the prominent jaw.
 No doubt, the idea that a recednx chin meant weakness arose by con- 'rast with the battling character as- sumed 10 be associated with the chin that protruded forward
 Just as d considerable number | Of men with weak chins have had strength and the mental power to make other people believe it, so | also many man with a projecting ! chm has been able to impress upon the world a strength that he did not actually possess. The world is far 100 prone to judge by appearances.

Mrs. Tsccr Agrees to Keep Kate h
 tho Da,k, and Enjoys the Joke
 I shot . whimsical smile at my plump neighbor as she voiced the balief that I had something to tell her.
 ~.Who has witches blood now?" leased. But you're right. l have something to tell you and ask you"
 ~.Askins isn't necessary" she said stnrdily. Just tell me what you wSnt done."
 ..Thank you" l returned heartily. We haven't much time to waste upon empty formality at that. But you must let me say first how glad am that you are coming to the farmhouse to help us through the next few days"
 Her face grew grave.
 "You know I'd come any time she said, "and I told Mis- Under- wood 50. But I didn't tell her that was afraid katie'd go up in the air when she found out was com- ing to the farm. Me and Katie don't hitch very we'll. you know"
 "I know one thing, that the fault isn't on your side" I spoke heartily. with the consciousness that l was telling only the truth, for indeed katie's jealous temper was alone re- sponsibie for the friction in the household machinery when Mrs. Ticer "helped out" at the farm.
 Mrs. Ticer's broad face beamed.
 Its mighty good of you to say so." she said. and you may be sure I'll be mighty careful to keep on the right side of her when I come over"
 'T know you will" told her. ''and I think you'll find her on her best behavior. But tell me, do your hus- band and son know that we want them tc help Jim for the next few days?"
 Not yet" Mrs. Ticer replied with the magnificent ignoring of her linen folks" dignity which always gives me an irresistible desire to laugh. "Time enough for them to know tonight. They'd only gibble gabble about 1t and neglect their work if did tell them"
 She had summed up her garrulous easy-going husband and son in a phrase. but I knew that, woman like, she would resent any ac- quiescence of mire in her verdict.
 More Secrets Revealed
 "You're too hard on them," smiled. and hurried on before she could offer a disclaimer. But I'm glad you didn't tell them, for now there'll be only you to keep a se- cret I'm going to whisper to you"
 '"That's . good thing" she said caustically. "Ticer and Jerry eau keep . secret If I stand over 'em withsa hickory switch. but naturally

It certainly was q queer sight that Peter Rabbit saw. When he got home to the dear Old Briar- patch he told Mrs. Peter that it was the queer est sight he had ever seen or ever expected to see. Probably he will say the same thing the next queer sight he secs. But it was queer. there's no denying that.
 Peter was in his favorite place un- der . certain little hemlock tree, whore he was quite hidden himself. but could watch the home of the Wood Ducks. This was, as you know, a hole high up in the dead tree. Pe- ter at the time was half asleep. It was early in the morning and Peter had been out and about most of the night. He awoke fully. however when he saw Mrs. Wood Duck poke her head out of that hole and look sharply this way and that. Then her head was withdrawn. Peter had just started to yawn when that head re- appeared, and this time there was something in the bill.
 Gracious" exclaimed Peter un- der his breath, and his eyes were very wide open indeed. What do you think was in that bill? A Duckling! Yes. sir. Mrs. Wood Duck was hold ing one of her babies in her bill. In a twinkling she was out of that hole and away she shot straight off to- ward the pond of Paddy the Beaver. 'Gracious!" exclaimed Peter again. Did see that or did I dream it? I wonder If she'll take any more that way"
 Peter didn't wonder very long. In a surprisingly short time Mrs Wood Duck was back and had disappeared in that hole way up in the dead tree. She was working fast. was Mrs. Wood Duck, for it seemed to Peter that hardly had her tail disappear ed in that hole when her head ap- peared coming ont and in her bill was another Duckling. Away she whirred on stout wings and again disappeared in the direction of the pond of Paddy the Beaver
 ''Oh dear." exclaimed Peter. "J wish there were two of me. l mean. wish ] could be in two places at the same time. l wish I could be here and there. But if I'm here can't be there and if I'm there can't be here. If l could run as fast as Mrx. Wood Duck can fly. 1 might be able to do if. I want to see her take all of those babies out of that hole, but want 10 see her hide them all at the poEd of Paddy the Beaver and cant do if. Oh, dear. I wish l were two instead of one.'
 Peter was quite undecided Wheth- CT to remain where he was or 10 be satisfied wIh what he had seen there ard go over to the pond and see where Mrs. Wood Duck was leaving her babies. He was still thinking about it still undecided, when again Mrs Wood Duck took a baby in her bill and flew away with it..
 If I go over there I may not be able 10 find them," thought Peter. and Y'li miss out both ways. l guess I'll stay right here and see her carry the last one. Then l'f go

cries back from the windows as well as over it are a fortunate buy for summer.
 There are two bits of advice prospective curtain buyers should heed. Get good sunfast material, for nothing in q home has quite the strain put upon it that curtains have with the double chance of being burned by summer sun and moisten- ed by summer rain. Second, get enough material. Skimpy draperies are never satisfying. Especially in summer when nature is so profligate there is something distastoful and character-revealing in stingy drap- cries that are too short and too narrow.
