were not so big But each time he stole
away as softly and stealthily as he had
come.
Now, Yowler the Bobcat is naturally
a coward. He can fight and will fight
when cornered, but he is sneak rather
than bold, and he seldom attacks any
one who can put up fight. So it was
not until he became desperate that he
even seriously thought of attacking the
Lightfoots. However. the time came
when he made up his mind to take the
chance.
IT have nothing to lose and lot to
gain" thought he. II can always get
away if don't succeed. and If do sue
coed won't go hungry for long time.
1t is worth the chance, especially now
that Lightfoot has lost his antlers."
So Yowler hid close by the yard of
Lightfoot the Deer and watched and
waited until at last Mrs. Lightfoot came
along alone. Lightfoot was nowhere In
sight. This was as YowlsT wanted 1t.
Watching his chance he made swift
leap for the shoulders of Mrs. Lightfoot.

FOWLER Takes a Chance,
He foolish is who doth refuse
To take a chance with naught to lose.
-Yowler the Bobcat

Yowler the Bobcat was desperate.
Yes, sir, he was desperate. The deep
snow had made hunting as hard for him
as for Reddy Fox. 1t had made it even
harder, for Reddy could hunt Mice on
the Green Meadows and prowl along
the Big River for what he might pick
up there, while FOWLER did not dare
leave the Green Forest and the Old
Pasture. AS long as the snow remained
soft he could do no hunting. He simply
had to remain at home and grow hun
grier and hungrier.
At last there was crust that would
bear his weight, and by day as we'll as
night Yowler stole softly like living
shadow through the Green Forest and
among the bushes of the Old Pasture,
thankful for a careless Mouse now and
then, but still with gnawing hunger
making him more and more desperate.
Several times he stole over to the
yard Of Lightfoot the Deer, and hidden
under snow weighted hemlock boughs,
with fierce, hungry eyes, watched Light
foot and Mrs. Lightfoot, and thought
what a splendid feast one Of them
would make for him, and wished they

Treatment of Wooden Dresses
BY MARY MARSHALL.
= HE housewife who makes out
her menus and plans her work

TINE housewife who makes out
her menus and plans her work
ahead of time always manages
L to have more time to herself
than the one who worries along
in a sort of hand-to-mouth fashion
never having much of an idea of what
she Is going to do until the time comes
to do it. And so any woman-whether
she stays at home or goes to work in
an office-always manages to look lot
better dressed If she has well-formed
plan of what she is going to wear made
out some time in advance.
It's a very good plan to take time
once a week to see that you have things
enough in good condition to last for
the next six or seven days. II you are
a busy business woman, you will prob
ably find it most convenient to do this
some time between Saturday closing
time and Monday morning.
See that you are prepared for var1-
GUS sorts of weather. See that you
have clean blouses to wear with your
suit, silk dress in spotless condition
to wear under your coat on day that
is not very cold and q wool dress look
ing as fresh as the day 1t was brand
new to wear If the day Is very cold.
It ought not to be too difficult to
keep your wooden dresses in ship-shape
as long as the Winter lasts. There are
so many good cleaning liquids that you
may use to take out chance spots, and
pressing dress with a hot iron over
damp cloth takes only short time
And then to add that final touch of
freshness be sure that you have enough
collars and cuffs or simple accessory
collars to make 1t possible to wear
fresh one every day or two. If you
have wooden dress that lacks such
accessories, by all means make some
The shops are full of charming collars
either with or without cuffs made from
lace, washable satin, silk or cotton
pique or all-over embroidery.

Handwriting
What 1t May Reveal.
BY MILDRED MOCKABEE.
AtuNoeS\H>a
cNs..slGnaAeA

THIS writing is so even that an
entire page of it gives almost
the same impression as print.
4 This regularity is probably re-
flected in the life of the writer,
making of her very exact and de-
pendable person. The only conflicting
indication is the thar which indicates
a certain degree Of impatience and
hurry. This does not appear pro-
nounced enough, however, to overcome
the former characteristic.
The very heavy idiot is worthy of
notice as it usually denotes very
forceful and positive character. She
probably has very definite ideas about
things. This may at times antagonize
her acquaintance, but, as they know
her better, they will, perhaps, realize
that she has no intention of hurting
them.
The very rounded, curved letter forms
suggest that she, perhaps, lacks ex-
perience. AS she grows older and be-
comes more accustomed to dealing with
people, she will probably learn how to
handle individuals, to sway them to her
side rather than to create any hard
feelings.
The almost printed form of the IS"
is an indication of culture and faStid-
iousneSs. She possibly gives much
thought to her choice of clothes, being
at all times Immediately and tastafully
gowned. Her home, also, will probably
reflect this natural disposition show
ing clever arrangement of well selected
furnishings.
She should be very careful about her
choice of occupation. Routine work
might prove deadly to her, sitting her
natural eXDreSSiOn and giving no on
portunity for her to further her own
ideas. Her seemingly fertile brain
should be allowed every chance to func-
ton in a way that should perhaps be-
stow glory and fame upon her.

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRoWLs.
Adjustment.

Adjustment.
What does adjustment mean? In
the first place it means the ability 10
sense. e., to see, hear, feel, taste
and smell what is going on. This In
psychological terms is called sensation.
It's the first big component of the world
Of mind.
The next big step is the development
of ways and means for conserving SEN
sation for future use. Psychologists
call this memory. just how memory
may be accounted for is something OF
a problem yet. But memory Is TACT; at
least it is logical name for something
that gets results.
The third and most important step
In the scheme of making adjustments
came In when living things began to
work their memories over into new
forms, when they began to prepare for
situations before they appeared. Psy-
biologists call this creative ability
Imagination.
Sensation, memory and imagination.
These are the three big things in the
world OF mind. Man, it appears, has
made more progress in this respect than
any other living thing, although there
are some scientists who hold that man
can still go to the ant and the bee for
valuable instruction in the art Of "ad-
justing."

ness without accenting any special
color, or it can be SO hung that it re-
fleets a colorful hanging or ornament
opposite it, or maybe placed above on
a shelf or stand.
When color is lacking, there can be
the right type of wall decoration. A
gay hanging can give it, but the textile
or embroidery should not be so i'm
pressive that it calls for wider viStaS
The distribution of color should be
rather even in the wall hanging, there
by counting study of detail instead of
being imposing.
Colored prints and water colors and
oil paintings that are done in detail
and which are small, including the
frames, supply color in most pleasing
way. A bracket wall shelf against
plain textile wall hanging offers an OPP
portunity for notes of color in orna-
mentS put upon the shelves, as well as
in the textile itself.

THE COTTON PLANT.

TINE Egyptians traded with India
for cotton about $50 BIC.
There must have been trouble
i about the cotton, even in those
days, and in India there was a
law concerning it in 800 BIC. In the
Bible and many writings there are nu-
merous references to cotton and also to
fine raiment made of the cotton.
After the Civil War, when our cot
ton fields were laid bare, cotton was
bought from Egypt and from that time
on the exporting of cotton became very
important to Egypt. In 1866 the first
report was made about cotton by the
American Colonies. Mexfcans have
long known the value of it as an in
dustry
In 1898 Eli Whitney invented the
cotton gin and from that time on cot
ton was placed on profitable basis.
Many slaves were used to plant and
gather the crop and soon the bare
fields we're snowy white way down
South in the land of cotton" Today,
as you go through the South. you can
still hear the song of the pickers. And
the great bales in the fields are seen
as you ride through the cotton belt.
The plant has a taproot which
reaches deep into the soil for moisture,

SIGHT.
From there he could get at her throat.
At the same instant Mrs. Lightfoot
plunged forward. Perhaps she had
heard some faint sound, or perhaps her
keen nose had caught the scent OF
FOWLER. The result was that FOWLER
landed far back. He dug his claws in
to hold on as Mrs. Lightfoot, with a
sharp whistle of fright, plunged this
way and that.
There was an answering whistle and
Lightfoot came plunging along one OF
the paths, his usually soft eyes blazing
with anger. There was nothing timid
in the appearance of lightfoot then,
even If he did not have his antlers.
Yowlsr lost his hold and dropped to the
path and in an instant Lightfoot reared
and brought his sharp hoofS down. 1t
was only glancing blow, but 1t hurt.
Yes, sir, it hurt With a snarl of rage
and pain YoWler turned to face Light
foot, ears laid back, short tail twitching,
teeth showing between lips drawn back,
his feet gathered under him for spring
at Lightfoot's throat.
Even as he jumped Lightfoot reared
and struck, and again it hurt. Mean
while Mrs. Lightfoot came charging
from the other direction. Two against
one were OOQS he COulQIlL lace, ana
with yell of rage and disappointment
Yowler sprang out of the path, up on
the crust and skunk away. Lightfoot
made two plunges after him, but realiz-
ing his helplessness in the deep snow,
stopped, snorting and whistling, the
hair on his back and neck standing
erect, and his big eyes still blazing with
anger.
Yowler continued to stink away. Later
he caught Rabbit and this made him
feel better. If I hadn't been almost
crazy with hunger I would have known
better than to take that chance" he
muttered. My, but those hoofs of
Lightfoot's are sharp! He licked the
wounds made by those hoofs. Then he
grinned rather sheepishly. 81 hope"
thought he, that no one saw me make
that mistake"
