Peter Rabbit was filled with hor- TOT. Yes, sir, he was so, Buster Bear was stealing up on Lightfoot the Deer and Lightfoot the Deer hadn't even his antlers wherewith to de- fend himself. He was lying down in the thicket just ahead-his favorite thicket, where he had spent much of his time since the losing of his old antlers and the starting of his new ones. The wind-what little there was-was blowing straight from that thicket to Buster Bear. Wonderful as was the nose of Light foot, there was no chance for him to discover the approach of Buster Bear SO long IS the wind was in that direction.
 "Oh, dear." thought Peter. "Oh, dear, I just cant let Lightroot be killed. But what can do about it?"
 By this time Buster was very near the thicket and he was moving even more carefully than before. Each foot was placed as if he were walk ing on air. There wasn't the rustic Of q single leaf; there wasn't the snap of single tUig; there was just nothing at all to warn Lightfoot Nearer and nearer stole Buster Bear. Buster was thin after his long very hungry and he looked it. But If he could catch Lightfoot he would in many day.
 have such feast as he had not had
 Now Buster is so big and strong that he fears no one in the Green Forest. Therefore. he was paying no attention 10 anything but the effort 10 get within jumping distance of Lightfoot the Deer. Not once did he even turn his head to look behind him. He had no more idea that Pe- ter Rabbit was about than Lightfoot had that he was about. Peter knew this and SO he yentured nearer 10 Busters heels than he otherwise would have. Buster had stopped now. He was standing motionless. IL was very still there in the Green Forest. very still indeed. Buster Bear lifted q foot to take another careful step. It was then that Peter Rabbit knew what he must do. and he did it. With those stout hindfeet of his he thumped with all his might. He thumped his danger sig nal In the 'hicket ahead of him there was sudden rustlng of leaves. Then there was the sound Of snapping twigs and the rustic Of branches pushed aside. Peter knew that Lightfoot the Deer had bound od to his feet and was in full flight.
 Buster Bear plunged into the thicket with a snarl of fury. He was just too late and he knew it. That meal he had counted on was gone. Yes, sir, it was gone. And it was all because of the alarm that Peter Rabbit had given. Buster Bear was in a rage. He plunged back toward the place where Peter had thumped the ground. It, is quite needless to say that Peter wasn't there. No. in- deed. Peter wasn't there. He was running as only Peter can run when he is badly scared-dodging and

YOUR HEALTH
BY DIR. MORRIS ElSHBEIN Editor Journal Of the American Medical Association and of Hy-
 Reja. tine Health Magazine


 Some people believe it is more hcalthful to drink tea than coffee.
 The active ingredient of both tea and coffee is caffein. Tea was introduced into Europe in 1G1o. To- day there are many varieties of tea which differ only by a fraction of q per cent in their important ingre- dients.
 Caffcin and Fannie Acid
 The two most important ingredi- ents are csffeln and tannic acid. These with the volatile oils arc chiefly what concern the person who drinks tea as beverage. The caffein in tea is so soluble that it is practically all dissolved out of the leaf immediately after infusion.
 The tannic acid is dissolved and more slowly. 90 that the longer the tea is steeped. the more tannic acid there is likely to be in the finished product The amount of caffein per cup in tea varies from z Of a grain to 12 grains and the amount Of tannc acid from 0s9 grains to 4.2 grams.
 It is therefore probably better not to prolong the infusion because then too much tannic acid will enter into the finished product. too much Of the volatile oil will dis appear and the product will be bit ter. It is not advisable 10 add milk or cream to tea from the stand point of taste. On the other hand. his does help 10 throw down the tannic acid in an insoluble form.
 Coffee depends for its quality and flavor on the caffein and the oils. Coffee contains about 1.7 grains of caffein per teacup full and 3.24 grains of tarnic acid. which is just about the same as is contained in an equal quantity Of tea.
 Not Much Difference
 Therefore from the point of view of health, there is not much differ ence between tea and coffee. Either one used in great excess may be harmful.
 There is no evidence that either one used in moderation has had any influence on the length of life for the average person.

COATS TO FORSAKE STRAIGHT LINES

New York. April s-separate coats have graduated from the pure- ly utilitarian class into the highly decorative and stylish.
 The separate coat has never had to defend its position. In spite of ensembles and jacket suits by the dozen. the smart women always has needed and wanted . separate coat or two.
 But. since all the world of fash ion has changed, the separate coat follows suit. Instead of . plain affair, the ones shown this spring are meticulous in their adherence to the dictates of chic.
 There is a trend towards simulat- ing the fitted lines in separate coats. Few women prefer this type today. But the handwriting is on the wall. Summer will probably see more semi fitted ones than spring ever dreamed of. The majority of separate coats today, while not nip
 ping in much or any at the waist line, still have left the simple. straight-line style far behind. Intricacy in Cut Daytime coats that are not meant | primarily for travel or sports. fea- ture yokes. godets. trickily set-in sleeve effects and other ingenious intricate cuts. They are soft. fem mine, and very becoming garments.
 much more like frocks than the ob-
 vious topcoats ever were.
 Fabrics are the finest. colors
 much more apt to border on light
 shades than dark. unless they are
 navy or black. the old standby col.
 ors that never fail to have large | followings.
 Separate coats are noticeabiy long CT than ensemble coats. Of course one may prefer an afternoon coat Of fine fabric that is definitely three. quarters. to allow the softness Of ones chiffon print dress to show be- low But the average separate coat
 for daytime is long, at least to the bottom of the skirt.
 Wooiflower is new French wool that makes some of the softest sepa-
 rate coat this spring. It is used es- pecially for afternoon things. being very fine fabric. Silks, in the
 romas and heavy failles, are in use 1 Of course the kasha tueeds are al- most universal favorites for the semi-sports things. kasha. covert cloth. basket weaves and many | novelty worsteds are all good.
 An Interesting Coat Nionnct sends blue and beige separate coat that uses it's own fab
 ric as if it were svelt fur for an in- 1 teresting collar. It is of the large, | crushable variety that enhances a | woman's beauty. The sleeves Of this
 garment flare softly at the wrists. quite in keeping with the feeling of
 the collar. The cut of the whole coat is noteworthy. from the point
 of view of the changing mode.
 There IS deep N-shaped yoke in back and the V-shapod front cut
 repeats the motif. A neat leather l belt fastens it.
 The use Of flat furs with silk promises a vogue this spring. 1 l have a rose-beige silk crepe
 roma coat that sponsors the very l large cape collar and cuffs on its | wide sleeves of iapin fur dyed to
 match the silk exactly. When fur
 is used this summer it quite often 1 takes it's color from the fabric it l is used with. One coat even has | orange fur, startling to note at first 1 but very interesting and effective on 1 the right woman.

The Farmhouse Takes on the Aspect of . Hotel as Princess Oina

"1 WANT \ NICKEL By Alice JudsOn l'ealc

Mamma, l want nickel" says the four yearold. Give me quar- ter. dad says the grade school child. T need some money" an nounces the high school girl across the breakfast table with dignity and reserve. They say it differently but to them all, nickels, quarters, dol lars means the same thing. They spend them with a light heart that morrow.
 Children who never have earned money, whose father and mother sISe them generous amounts to spend almost whenever they ask, regard their parents as a kind of miraculous pitcher. One may pour f2rom it again and again, but 1t re- mains ever full.
 Although from time to time these parents protest at the apparently insat ia ble demands made upon them. if is evident that on the whole they find the situation pleasant one. The faith and utter dependence of their children fatters the wish for power and importance that dwells in even the most devoted parental bosom. II makes possible an abso- lute control which can be achieved under no other circumstances.
 The policy Of giving money to children on request is. however, most unfair and short sighted. It teaches nothing of economy and planning, nothing of the value and limitation of money. Ii fixes in the child the idea that money is ob- tained in return for love rather than work, that it is his by divine right rather than az the fruit of his own effort.
 The wise parent will see that even the littlest child has opportunities 10 earn his coveted nickel, and he will encourage the older ones 10 find work for which they may be paid. He will fix an allowance in accor- dance with the state of the family purse and the needs Of the child and from it's limitations he will ad- init no appeal.

 Peter was quite right about this. II was one Of the narrouest escapes that Lightfoot the Deer had ever had. Peter had the right 70 feel that he had saved Lightfoot.
