lighted for they knew old Professor
Porcupine, and he had told them many
interesting stories.
They thought school would be great
fun and he had told them, too, that
there would be time for stories after
school, and that he would take walks
with them and show them the life
that goes on in the deep woods.
Shortly after Mr.. Porcupine had
talked TO his wife. the children started
in with their school
Every day they took Professor Por-
cupine his meals for the day and lit
tie extras for his callers.
The children loved their school, and
they learned so much and had such
fine walks and talks with the old Pro-
fessor.
One day, however, they were off on
a walk-the whole school-and the
Professionalism they heard a loud
barking.
THAT is a dog" said Professor Por-
cupine quietly.
"A dog" shivered the little Porcu-
pines, as they had heard a dog spoken
of as terrible creature.
''We will be quite safe" said Pro-
fessor Porcupine.
''Shall we 60 for him?" asked one of
the children.

cupine. I'VE shall not go for him.
Let it always be truthfully said of
the Porcupine family that our quilts

not TO hurt other animals.
IF we must use our quilts TO defend
ourselves, very well, but if we don't
need TO use them. all the better.
The dog was now seen running aft
er them. He was growing and snarl-
ing.

voice. but ToWser paid not attention.
On he ran for all he was worth.
I'll give you a good shaking"
growled the dog as he took hold of
one of the Porcupine children.
Now with your quills,' called out
Professor Porcupine.
Back went the dog bowling with
pain 10 his master.
There Towser," said his master
kindly, next time you must obey me-
And as he drew out the quilts from
Tewser's shaggy fur. Towser's eyes
told his master he would never dis

And when the Porcupine children re-
turned home they told their mothers
and daddies the two important les
sons they had learned that day-one
that quilts we're TO be used when they
were in danger, but that they must
never use them unless necessary-and
of course they knew-as ignorant peo-

Allow six or seven fnger-sized

After trimming the green tops from

A cross arm Of beef was used for
the pot roast In the illustration 9th
er cuts Of beef suitable for cooking in
this way are chuck ribs, clod. round.
and rump. The secret of a weli-fia-
yored pot roast lies in first browning
the meat well and then cooking il
very slowly for long time in a tight
Uncovered vessel with just a little
added water. Some of the juices of
the meat will cook out so that when
the meat is done there will be consid-
erably more liquid in the pan than
you put in All of this liquid is util-
lied in making the gravy, so none of
the goodness of the meat is lost.
There is all the difference in the
world between a roast made in this
way and a piece of boiled meat. which
has lost much of its flavor in the sur
rounding water.
In describing the cooking OF several
of the less tender cuts of beef. the bu-
reau of home economics gives these
suggestions for making an attractive
and delicious pot roast:
Select a piece from four TO six
pounds in weight. Wipe with a damp
cloth. Rub the meat with salt, pep
per. and -four. Brown the meat on
all sides in heavy kettle. using about
three tablespoonful Of beef fat. Slip
q low rack under the meat, add one
half cupful of water, cover tightly.
and simmer until tender. The time
required for cooking cannot be def
nitely stated. bIt it will probably be
about three hours. Turn the roast oc-
casionally. When the meat Is done

Sir Walters Thoughts
Must Have Been Lurid

In days of old when postage rates
were high many people sent their let
tiers collect" Once Sir Walter Scott
received by mail from New York, a
thick package on which he had TO
pay f5 (S25) postage. Opening it, he
found inside a manuscript entitled
THE Cherokee Lover" written by an
American woman who requested that
he read it, improve it, write pro-
logue, and have it staged at Drury
Lane, as well as TO take the neces-
sary steps TO secure the copyright for
her.
Two weeks later, another packet ar
rived on which Scott paid another So
postage. He opened it. says Alvin f.
Harlow in 'Old Post Bags" and there
was another copy of The Cherokee
Lover" from the author. She wrote that
the weather had been so stormy and
the mails so uncertain that she feared
the first copy might be lost and so
inelosed another.
