 Mrs. Jerry looked in that direction and sure enough there was g boy, lha stranger she had seen before. He appeared 10 be very busy search- ing for something along the bank Of tho Laughing BrooE. He examined every log that lay partly in the wa 'a' and every low place along the hank. Jerry Muskrht grew more dis ;grhed as he watched.
 He hasn't a terrible gun sad Mrs. Jerry
 If he had you and I wouldn't be sitting here" replied Jerry dryly.
 Well, as long as he doesn't bring g gun I don't see why We should worry" declared Mrs. Jerry,
 What about traps@' asked Jerry.
 Traps" exclaimed Mrs Jerry in a startled tone. Traps. What un- der the sun put traps into your head ?"
 "As long as they arc in my hea ] and not along the Laughing Brook or around the Smiling Pool if is al! right" grinned Jerry. Then his fac' grew sober again. Perhaps there i' nothing to worry about. but just the same l wish that fellow would stay away from here" he added.

Christmas
BY IMAGERY TAYLOR

Interior Decoration Editor, McCalrs Magazine Written for The Herald,
 At Christmas time decoration" means something different than its -year-round meaning.
 But in Christmas decoration there are also new styles.
 The decorations should definite ly hollow the architectural spirit of the room. Instead of scattering miscellaneous branches of ever greens, use ropes of pine. hemlock, spruce, cedar or boxWood. If the fireplace is the logical center, fes- toon it with a wreath and ever- green ropes. and little trees on both sides. And in honor of the spirit O. the season. a parade of gay toys should line up along the mantel.
 The old gaudy oyer-decorated tree is outmoded. The new tree is made more mysterious looking by restraining the decorators i'm pulse to hang on it everything that can be found. The latest is the all- silver tree with nothing but silver ornaments. Over the tree are gen. erously hung, shredded tin foil icicles, and silver balls or balloons, with a silver star at the top. The lights are all white.
 Lamps Of many colors are drowned upon. The tree. to be in style. should have lights of all one color green, blue, yellow or red.
 But Christmas decoration isn't only 'interior' its going outside the house.
 Gar dens of light and color are 10 blossom in many towns this holi- day and each year it is becoming more traditional to show the sea sons spirit 10 all who pass by. If you haven't already planted all ever green tree on each side of the en- trance. you can place small trees in neat red tubs flanking the door, and hang a wreath between.
 The decorative scheme should. of course, fit the house. An Eng fish house, which has plain gable at the front. is the proper setting for five-pointed star worked in white lights. The lights are fastened in strings by staples spaced equally apart on a holder made Of lath.

 Epilepsy is disease of which the ultimate cause or causes still remain unknown. The disease IS chronic in nature. the brain being the seat of the disorder.
 Epilepsy may exist in either severe or mild form. Clinically three grades are recognized and desig- mated as the grand nal petit maj, and the so-called psychic epilepsy.
 These grades are differentiated princlpally on the degree Of loss ol consciousness and of convulsion that the afflicted one suffers
 In grand nal the loss of con- sclousness is complete and may last for several minutes. In petit nal the loss Of consciousness may resemble momentary faint.
 The convulsive seizures in epilep- sy are often very violent. Because Of this the patient is liable to in 1urc himself grievously. The sud- denness with which the seizure sets IF causes the sufferer 10 fall with out warning.
 During the period Of unconscious ness, when the muscles are rigid and there are many convulsivc movements, the cpileptc is liable 10 bite and injure his cheeks and tongue.
 Little can be done for the sufferer during seizure to minimize it's severity or 10 shorten it's duration. Something, however. may be done to keep him from injuring himself Thus, tight clothing should be loosened, an a pad Of some sort, lH an emergency made out Of Il tightly folded handkerchief. should be inacrtod between his teeth
 \ true cure for epilepsy Is still unavailable, though number Of drugs arc used with much bcnefis tl the sufferers. The treatment of epilepsy. however, involves much more than drugs. and each case needs careful and individual study.

WATERS REACH HIGH .. MARK: LOCAL ROAD
 INUNDATED FEW FEET

High tide on the Seward High way, just south of Hill 60, other wise known as Chamberlain Hill probably swept all records from the board today.
 The water at 11:30 3. m. was two feet over the road and nice and cold. At least The Gateway scouting party found it so. The pathfinder party had gone out in it's Buick amphibipn and made the grade going out In other words the car got into the stretch of 200 yards of overflow before 1t realized divine suits had been left to hum and there was only one thing to o do and that was, stick with the ship and plunge thru.
 It was then found that the aviation field was still there, and the radio station seemed to be all right. One poor field mouse, driven out by high water on the flat, was seen having tough go- ing in the snow and narrowly averted his brief spell on earth when he darted out from under wheel "

Cuban Vice-Consuls Drown
Seeking To Save Wife
Blown Off Cliff

HAVANA, Nov. 3-(Pl-Bodies Of
two American vice consuls in Cuba
and OF the wife OF one were sought
today in MatanZas Bay after a
drowning tragedy in which the two
men died in a futile attempt to
save the woman.
The drowned were John Tillot-
son wainwright, 80. Of New York.
American vice consul at MatanZas,
and Mr.. and Mrs. William I. Jack
son Of Madison. III. Mr.. Jackson.
who was Sc. was vice consul at
Havana.
A third vice consul. Sydney Gest
OF Havana. barely escaped with his
life in a futile attempt to rescue
the trio when his wife found a long
pole and pulled him TO shore.
The three vice consuls were
spending Sunday with their wives
at Matanzas. Mrs. Jackson climbed
to the top OF a high cliff overlook
ing the bay. A sudden swirl OF
wind caught her and blew her
over the cliff into the hay.
Her husband. hearing her screams
jumped in after her. but in a NOM
ent ii appeared certain 70 those on
the shore that his attempt would
be futile in the rough water. VAIN
wright then dove into the bay, and
for a moment all three could be
seen on the crest OF a wave.
A moment later Gest went into
the water also but was soon ex-
hausted without seeing the trio
again and tried 10 get back 70
shore. He probably would have
drowned too had not his wife pull
cd him cut with the pole.
Rescue parties were got together
bv the Gests, but the waves were
running high and attempts TO find
the bodies finally had to be aband-
oned until today.
