But would he be if he should discover
an intruder in his home, one who had
no business to be there? Peter was
filled with great and growing doubt.
Then there was Mrs. Jimmy.

though Peter. IF I get out of this
scrape III mind my own affairs and
keep out Of trouble. Yes, sir; III do just
that. I'll stay at home in the dear old
Briarpatch I wonder if Jimmy and
Mrs. Jimmy are really asleep.
You can't stay under there forever
Peter, and when you do come out I'll
be waiting for you" said Reddy Fox
You may as well come out now and

Peter said nothing. There was no
sound under the porch. He began to
feel better If Jimmy and Mrs. Jimmy
had gone to sleep he would take care
not TO disturb them, and he knew that
when Reddy said that he would be
waiting no matter when Peter should
come out, he was blufing He might
wait most of the night, but with the
coming Of daylight he would be of for

Peter listened for some sound from
Jimmy and Mrs. Jimmy There was
none. He was beginning to feel in good
spirits once more, and to think that he
wasn't SO badly off after all In fact,
he was beginning to think that he had
been rather smart, and to forget his
good resolutions And then there was
a stir back of him and sharp voice

Bad Tempers.

From earliest infancy the child has
a cross period. Again and again
mothers write: From to in the
afternoon the baby is SO irritable. She
cries most Of the time"
That's the fatigue period of the day
| for infants, and it continues to be the
| fatigue period for all children The
worst conflicts, the temper tantrums,
| the inexplicable naughtiness come at
the end of the day. Mothers tempers
! are at the flaming point, children
| tempers are ready for the lighting, and
| the inevitable result is a senseless con-
| fiagration.
There Is strength in being armed
! against irritationS when one knows the
! exact reason for them. Adults have
a bundle Of ready excuses for them
I'm cross, but I'm just dead. Don
mind what say you have no idea
what I've been through today we
respect such excuses. They are valid.
| One isn't tactful or patient or under
standing when one Is fatigued.
But the excuses ought to be pulled
i out to cover the poor youngsters VINO
| have their days" and their exhaustions
with the inevitable fatigue. Bedtime
is not the time to insist that son pick
up every single one of his toys II he
shows a disposition to pick up few
of them. 1t is not the time to argue
with daughter about finishing that last
spoonful of cereal with hurry up now,
or mother can't give you your pudding
| Tired babies can't be reasoned with.
| One needs to skate carefully when 1t
| is plain that the children'S moods are
| CaptiouS.
| When the baby cries regularly from
4 to and mother knows positively that
| it is not hunger as it so easily may be,
| try the enchantment of an air bath
| that lasts half or quarters of all
| hour before bedtime With baby's
| clothes stripped off to the diaper, let
him roll and wriggle and push himself
| about on a wide bed in a very warm
room, until it is time to give him brisk
rub, a change of clothes, a fresh nightie
and finally his warm feeding. Those
moments of complete freedom from
clothes and from handling will keep
even the hungry baby happy and occu-
pied until bedtime has arrived.
The child of 18 months and beyond
is too active to be kept on bed. For
this child the cross period may be filled
in with a romp without clothes in a
warm room, then a soothing, warm
bath, the refreshment of warm. clean
clothes Lastly, give him his supper up
stairs, or down in the warm kitchen,
with mother right at hand to keep her
eve on him and attend to his wants. If
he is pumped into bed before father and
mother sit down to eat there will be no
cross, tired child to demand attention,
refuse to eat and make of the evening

- INCE the dawn Of history the dog
has been the companion of man.
Whether Fido Sprang from q
~ wild species, q wolf or some
other creature, we have been
unable to find out. Even savages have
had their dogs.
Faithful and loving even in the case
where the dog has been so unfortunate
as to become the companion of cruel
masters, they are willing to risk their
lives for them. In famous caves there
standing beside their loved ones, and
who has not known or heard of great
deeds done by these humble friends?
Today there are about 200 distinct
breeds of dogs. Many are bred for spe-
cial purposes. There is positive proof
that the dogs brain has undergone a
great change since the days when he
ran wild. Now we see the dog ex-
hibiting the most human qualities and
intelligence among all our domestic
animals.
It is natural for the dog to run down
his prey. That is what long, strong
legs are for His feet are padded in Or
der that he may run easily. The claws
are heavy and protect his feet as well
as aid him in digging for game which
insists on burroWing in the ground.
The great Newfoundland dogs are eX-
pert swimmers and have toes which
are Webbed.
The iris Of the dogs eye is lovely
brown, but puppies usually have blue
eyes. The pupil is round like the hu-
man eve and accounts for the fact that
dogs see much better in the daytime
1t is the nose that Is so important
Their sense of smell and ability to fol-
low a scent are remarkable. The soft
damp skin which covers the nose car
ries the secret in that dampneSS. The
scent is conveyed to the wide noStrils
which are at the most forward part of
the face. When the dog lifts it head
and shifts" the air, he is able to get
information by way Of scent which is
beyond our understanding.
The dog has a long, muscular body.
A fat dog IS untitled for his work and
is usually old or overfed. His coat of
hair is coarse and is shed during the
Summer months. When running, the
dog stretches to its fullest length. He
has several gaits, as running, walking,
trOtting, leaping and bounding He
craWls slowly when ashamed or afraid,
but has a very different type of crawl
ing when in happy mood.
When fighting, the dog uses his
tusks, which are very much like those
of the wolf. With these tusks he seizes
his prey shakes its life out or holds it
while he tears it to bits. If the dog
encounters a larger animal than him
self he leaps against it. Have you ever
watched dog gnaw a bone? He will
hold it securely with his front feet and
with his long, canine teeth he tears the
food, with his molars he cuts the meat
into small pieces and then gulps the
chunks down.
1t has been thought that the reason
dogs howl when they hear music is be-

Everyday Psychology
Did I Lock the Door 2"
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

1t is fact that many persons worry
about the door of their house or apart
ment after they have started on a jour-
ney. And there are some who are
superStitiouS enough to believe that 1t
Is bad luck" to return for an inveSti-
CATION. There are some curious psyche
logical possibilities, SO far as the in
depreciation of such things is concerned.
OF course, no one can find fault with
your desire to protect your silverware.
And you can't possibly remember eXer-
cising all your everyday habits, such
as locking doors. But III recent years
some psychologists have cOntended that
our nervous fOrebodingS about the door
are syn1bolical of something more i'm
portant than knives and forks.
Their contention is that habitual
worry about the door indicates a NOR
bid fear that some one may find out
just what you are. There may be
skeleton in the chest of that house
you call "yourSelf!" The idea is that II
your secret life will not stand inyesti-
cation you will more than likely take
the trouble to conceal it. And you do
all this uncOnSciously! Every venture
is considered in the light of its possible
or probable exposure of yourself.
So your unconscious mind keeps call
ing to your conscious mind with the
admonitiOn. BE careful" You apply
the admonition to everything. And SO
you ask Did lock the door?"

When dog wishes to talk" he has

wish to convey to you his great delight
in seeing you he leaps about, giving
joyful little barks and squeals. Often
he tries to kiss you To become ac-

Farmers Given Leniency,
Claim of Federal Banks
'ShyIock' Charges Made by
Borah Are Denied by
U. S. Officials.

By Scripps-H ooard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, oct. 21.-Senator
William E. Borahs charges that
federal banking agencies are pur-
suing a "Shylock" course on farm
ers' mortgages were met today by
statements of the joint stock land
bank at Lincoln, Neb, and the fed
eral farm loan board that they
were showing the utmost leniency
under existing circumstances.
Since Borah pointed out in the
Scripps- Howard newspapers that
government and government-super-
viSed agencies were foreclosing on
the farmer right and left, President
Hoover and his subordinates have
taken action to improve this situa-
ton and placarte the farmers of
normally Republican western states.
Moratorium programs have been
discussed. and the policy of irnrne-
date collection of seed loans has
been replaced by one of temporary
delay.
The new statements emphasize
that the farmers main hope for
holding his farm is fair price for
his products and that little can be
done for him by government agen-
cies, because they must pay interest
on their bonds.
