 Peter looked up at tine leaf Oil which the caterpillar he had been watching was still eating. That cat erpillar had | backload of what looked like little white eggs standing on end, A sudden idea popped into Peters head.
 Do you mean" asked Peter. that your little cousin laid all those eggs on that caterpUlars backo"
 No said Thalossa. T don't mean anything Of the kind. Those are not GEES"
 Peter hlinhed "Tr thoso are not eggs, what under The SUI are thev?" he demanded

DIFFERENT
By Alice Judson peale


 Among the most recently ac- quired of childrens rights is the right to be different, the right of brothers and sisters to their own indiVidualities different from each other and from their parents mo- tions of what they should be.
 Present day knowledge of the variations in original endowment, both mental and physical, makes it plain that each individual has his own limitations, his own special problems and his own goals which he must discover for himself,
 Not only is the original endow- ment of each child different but so also are the conditioning factors which play upon each individual. Brothers and sisters are by no means subjected to the same influ- ence, the psychological environment of every child in the family being necessarily different from that of every other.
 Few of us are such wholly ma IuTe lnulVluudlS that as parents, We have not some ax to grind with our children. We are forever trying to make them strive for the very ideals which we ourselves have failed to attain or we are seeking in our re lationship with them satisfactions and responses We should have found elsewhere.
 And so we find fault because they are not what we expected them to be. They are themselves, individu- als as they were born to be. mould ed by influences largely outside of either their control or ours.
 Since our real children inevitably | differ from the ideal children we would like them to be, it is wise at | the outset to accord them the right l to be different and to measure their 1 success only in terms of their own 1! whatever the direction | may be.

New Muffs From Paris Aren't All of Fur

Paris, Oct. S.-An ensemble may 1 be said to be perfect when all ac- cessories harmonize with the prin- cipal garment, that is to say. the dress.
 Contrary to the general idoa, ac- cessories need not necessarily be of the same material or the same col or as the ensemble. Neither need they recall it by their lines in or der to be smart Women will ad- init, however, that when each ac- cessory is composed of material, coloring and general lines in har- mony with the dress, the result is then one of rare distinction allied with discretion
 Of all winter accessories, we must admit that the huff plays the principal role this season Firstly, by reason of it's volume, and sec ondly, because it consecrates as it were, a winter ensemble. It adds also another gesture to women,
 Muffs as Accessories
 The first muffs to be created in my house formed part, not of the ensemble, but Of a set" of access sories. By this I mean that they were made at the same time as the hat and often with an accompany ing tie.
 These advance models having met With some success, l determined to show my clients that a huff could achleVe greater importance in their scheme of clothes than they perhaps realized.
 Contrary to the old-fashioned muffs, the modernized version does not absolutely have to be made en- tirely of fur. Very often fur plays 1 exactly the same part in the huff | as III the dress, that of trimming.

YOUR HEALTH
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and Of Fly
 Eeia, the Health Magazine

Almost 10 years ago Professor w
 B. Cannon of Harvard University
 published a book on bodily changes in love. hunger and rage, in which he emphasized the evidence that has been developed in various places indicating that emotions have definite effects on the physical actions of the body.
 In 1896 1t was known that the movements of the intestines would be stopped if a person showed signs of anxiety. distress or anger. Since that time Can- non has studied the subject in- tcnsvely, particularly with d view to finding the mechanism by which such action takes place.
 The public realizes that the mental state of the individual does have a definite effect on it's activities, and for this reason far too often people resort to faith headers or quacks to change the mental state when it seems likely that the physical condition cannot otherwise be controlled.
 The scientific side of medicine has for almost a century empha- sized the actual changes that may be observed in the body after death and medical diagnosis de- mands scientific recognition of such changes.
 The human being differs from the animal iN the development of his brain, hrnce the behavior of the human beings is not always the simple mechanical response that takes place in the animal following definite stimulation Whenever a human being ex- presses fear, joy or grief, certain physlcal responses occur If a per- son feels happy. he is likely ,o smile or laugh, and, in smiling or laugh Ing, certain muscles of his face will take certain positions. In soma forms of paralysis affecting one half the brain, the patient is unable to move the face on the paralyzed side.
 There are, however, certain movements which are involun. tary; that is, they are controlled from the nerve centers withou, the patients wish, In case such a patient has an emotional reac- ton, the side of the face which is usually without expression will re- veal emotion. This indicates that the nerves responsible for these &C., 'i'i'les are not cut off by the pro- cess which injures the brain.
 Professor Cannon points out that an evenings meal may re main undigested all night in the stomach if there is persistent worry The saliva, the gastric and the nan creatic juices responsible for diges- ton do not flow when a person ia worried or frightened.
 Eminent clinicians estimate that anywhere from one-third to one half of all the people who suffer with digestive disturbances have dis ordered emotional states and the digestive disturbance is relieved when the emotional conditions ia restored to normal. These facts should not be taken as a warrant TOT disregarding physical causes or for neglecting physical measures in treatment. The assumption that emo- lonal agencies are causing the dis. Professor Cannon be- lleves, should always be held as a last resort.

 Than She Had Eondly EisionCd-
 What Could Be Wrong
 There is no material pleasure tC me so satisfying as a motor d"Nt through the country. 1 suppose il is because I am an incurable romanti cist, and cannot forget the dtea'n: of my bookish childhood when 1 bored over tales Of old coaching days in England and the colonies, ana closing my eyes, would imagine my self driving over strange roads am ] supping or breakfasting at roadside inns. Never did prosaic railway or boat journeys impress me, but when l took my first long country 1aunt in s motor car the old fas- cinatlon took hold of me, and still clings, regardless of all the dis comforts which long amotor journeys have, and which, q hundred tir2cs exaggerated. I know with the req soning part of my brain must have been the accompaniment of the old CpdCu journeys,
 But reason has little sway with me where motoring is concerned and when l had left the city behind. and with but two or three cars in sight had swung upon the bridge, felt as if I suddenly had been trans planted into another world The drabneSs of the morning was lift ing, and the roofs of the city, squat and ugly beneath the bridge, inspir- ing and beautiful in the farther Vistas, had emerged from the mist just before I turned eastward and with TO traffic to bother me I had been able to fill my eyes with one of the most intriguing pictures in the world, the emergence of a city from darkness. Then l was flying over the bridge, and through the smooth Long Island thoroughfares my imagination having full play with me.
 The streets were those of strag- ghng English suburbs, the lunch room where 1 had a really good breakfast, became an oaken-floored inn, with the slender lad who served me rubicund English landlord. 1 | was playing my old secret game of make-belieye, one which l never | nave revealed to anyone, not even Dlcky, although I think sometimes that Lillian suspects my idiosyn- | crasy. l was reveling in this chance | 10 travel alone with no one to look | with bored superiority upon my chlldishness, and l would have been i perfectly happy had it not been for | that persistent little haunting fear concerning Hugh Grantland.
