A few hours later, preparations had

used to give two coats to the plastered
walls and ceiling there and the cellar
stairs and the floor of the passageway
were also painted.
Closets in the bedrooms next were
improved with wall paint over the
plain white plaster and the cream-col-
ored paint left from the woodwork was
used for the shelves and baseboards.
An excellent place to use enamel
furniture paint is on the back of the
bureaus which are usually left unfin-
ished and which are less likely to har-
Dor dust when painted. Old bureau
drawers may also be greatly improved
in this way.
Another good place to use paint Is
on the cement floor of your cellar. You
may have seen cement paint used In
public garages. You will find that any
cement surface if finished with paint
will shed less dust and will be easier
to clean than a cement floor left bare.
Radiator paint is not hard to apply,
and radiators become discolored very
easily. If there has been a leakage of
steam, then the chances are that
there are marks of rust where the
moisture has collected.

chance to dart down and tear Busters
coat with his great hooked claws.
"Robber yOurself!" roared Buster,
turning so as always to face King
Eagle. you're just great bully and
nothing more. You can't catch fish,
and so you rob those who can"
This was true, and it didn't improve
King Eagles temper to be told so. He
called Buster all the bad names he
could think of, and he made fun Of
him because he was no longer king
of the forest. All the time he kept
wheeling and turning just out of Bus
ter's reach and pretending to dart
down at him. Once he succeeded in
striking Buster from behind before
Buster could turn, and once Buster
pulled out a couple of King Eagles
white tail feathers. Busters little
eyes blazed with anger, and there was
a savage CLEAN in the eyes of King
Eagle. And such screaming and
growing as there was! 1t brought
everyone within hearing to watch. 1t
is queer how quickly news of such I'M
pleasant things can travel. In sur
prisingly short time there was a ring
of little forest and meadow people
peeping out from safe hiding places.
None of them knew what the quarrel
was about, but all took sides as a mat
ter of course. The birds wanted King
Eagle to win, and the animals wanted
Buster to win, and all the time they
wondered what this dreadful quarrel
was about.
Now as is the way with people who
quarrel, it wasn't long before Buster
Bear and King Eagle were so intent
upon their quarrel that they gave no
thought at all to what they were quar-
reling about, and little by little they
got farther away from the fish which
had made all this trouble. Suddenly
King Eagle remembered. Buster Bear
was now so far from where the fish
had fallen that if he were quick he
might swoop down, snatch it and be
away before Buster could get him.
Watching his chance, he swooped over
Busters head and down to the place
where he had last seen the fish, his
great claws outstretched to seize it.
There was no fish there!

Be hoping, waiting, there for,

And, even when l drifted,
Brought me through"

work in two of the bedrooms and had
left behind them a gallon can nearly
full Of wall paint and almost as much
cream white paint for wood, all of
which had no doubt been charged for
on the bill. 1t seemed too bad to let
it go to waste, so the housewife
looked about to find some useful way
to use it, bought brush, donned
an old smock and spent a day or two
using up the paint in ways that were
well worth while. So pleased was she
with the result that she bought more
paint to finish the good work.
The landing at the top of the cellar
stairs never looked very clean, no mat
