He never viii forget the first snow he

when he came out into the Smiling
Pool it was still quite dark. There was

This Is queer" thought Stumpy.

SO Stumpy swan to that place in the
Laughing Brook where Jack Frost had
not succeeded in freezing it over. Even
before he was quite there he knew that
Mr.. Sun was shining, after all. He
could see the light coming down through
the water. When he reached the open
water and put his head out he found
that Jolly, bright, round Mr.. Sun was
shining, and shining his brightest. In
fact, 1t seemed TO Stumpy that never
had he seen such brightness. 1t fairly
hurt his eyes. A. he slowly, wonder

Jane has dear old great-auntie who
always likes to give all her nieces and
nephews something for Christmas, but
she does not have much money with
which to buy them presents. This year
she borrowed one of James dolls and
set to work to make an outfit for 1t,
using material from her scrap bag. The
new garments were generously supplied
with snaps and buttons and button
holes, making the dressing and un-
dressing of dolly a real delight. They
were carefully folded and placed in an
inexpensive toy suit case, bearing q tag
with the child's name on it. Jane was
perfectly delighted with this gift, which
had cost loving thought and under

mental buckle. This Is placed at q
fairly high neckline In the front. The
ends of the squares are then brought
over the shoulders to the back and
crossed over as shown in the sketch.
A few stitches should be taken under
the end that hangs over to keep them
in position. In order to make one end
of the scarf longer at the back than
the other you may use one square
slightly smaller than the other, or you
may join the two ends at the front so
that one is an inch or so shorter than
the other.
If you decide to use this scarf effect
on a new dress you might use the dress
material for one square with the other
square from material used for other
trimming details on the dress. A clever
effect might be achieved of small
figured silk, by making one square Of
the figured material and the other of
some bright color that appears IN the
print. There are all sorts of interesting
ways that the idea might be carried
out.

Answer.--You probably need TO gain
10 pounds or more. Find out the cor
rect weight for your age and height
and then build yourself up Eat plenty
OF nourishing food, including Q quart
Of milk daily, and devote more time 70
rest and sleep. In the morning spend
