as we'll as the nut. He was bigger than
Mrs. Happy, but she was faster. Sine
leared to the ground, picked up that
nut Happy Jack had dropped and raced
to the next tree and up It. There she
calmly sat to open and enjoy that nut,
for Happy Jack had followed her only
part way.
Mumbling Grossly. he climbed back to
that wonderful box, secured another
nut and in the enjoyment Of 1t recov-
cred his temper and quite forgot Mrs.
Happy. Meanwhile Mrs. Happy had
finished her nut. She waited until
Happy Jack had gone inside for another
Then she was back in that tree in a
jiffy and the instant Happy Jack backed
out she jumped, knocking him off that
shelf just as he had knocked her off
little while before. Before Happy
Jack could get back she was out and
off with another nut.
So they quarreled and quite forgot
to be thankful for this unexpected
bounty, and it was quite disgraceful.
You see, both were selfish, although
each insisted that it was the other who
was selfish. A lot of people are like
that. But in the end, each having had
enough, they became good-natured
again and to wonder if it could really
be that that box had been put there
especially for them by Farmer Browns

Dining Room Appointments.

IN EAR MRS. POST: May
- i after dinner coffee ir
demi-tasses be served at
~ table for an ordinary din
ner, without the aid Of
even one servant? Are they commonly
used by plain people with small
houses? I received this service as a
gift, and would like to know just when
it is used and how, as I can ex-
change it for anything else that I
would find more practical to me-"
Answer-Half-sized cups and saucers
and spoons are used by all people who
like to drink strong black coffee after
a meal. They are never used by those
who follow a popular American custom
Of drinking coffee with dinner as well
as with breakfast and supper In this
case, breakfast cups are used for coffee
that Is less strong and served with
milk or cream or both-and teaspoons
MY dear Mrs Post: At a lunch
party I noticed that one of the guests
took salt with her fingers from the
individual salt pot at her place. There
was no little spoon, SO there wasn't
anything else for her to do, was there?"
Answer-Not unless her knife had
not been used and she could have
taken the salt on its tip. But If her
knife had been used, then there was
nothing to do but pinch the salt in her
fingers, as she did.
Dear Mrs. Post: Is it true that
buttered rolls and toast should be
served at dinner, instead of unbuttered
breads with bread and butter plates?
This seems to be a very debatable
question among my friends, and we
cannot settle the matter without an
arbiter."

WINTERTIME

We see the white winged cross

which is no novelty at all in the dunes
along Long Michigan, for instance,
there IS only one authentic record of
its occurrence near Washington-th
Winter of 1886, which, I may hasten
to say, did not see

eisely rare. Indeed, through increas-
1ngly careful observations on Washing
ton Winter birds, it seems to become
~conlmoner-a mere illusion, perhaps.
That nobody may mistake it, shall de-
scribe this messenger Of Arctic storms
and cold.
In its Winter dress, the bird is not
SO nearly white as in bridal costume;
the middle of the back is black, with
a broad brown margin around the black,
and the tail is chiefly black, mixed with
taWny brown, which gradually gives way
to white as the Winter advances. For
the rest, the bird is only snowy white
on the throat, the belly, and to some
extent on the wings
SnoWfiakes are a little larger than
English sparrows. and as a rule they

Chlcadees and Juncoes. In Sweden they
are called bad-weather birds; they mean
to the peasant woman of the lonely
northern farm, as she gazes out to a
SKY black with unshed snow, what the
stormy petrol means to the sailor in the
screeching flfties; they are the wind
tossed harbingers of Winter and rough
weather
If this year any snowflakes should
fall upon our woods and fields, look
for them around the faSt-emptying seed
pods OF the ghostly withered weeds, and
around the checkerberries and winter
green berries in the woods. As for the
Lapland longspur if you see one at all.
look Tor sparrow-Sized bird with un-
usually long hind claws. Above, the
bird is brownish black has feathers
edged with dull buff, the wing feathers
with dull bay. The head and throat
are rich black, handsomely set off
with thin band of white, that begins
over the eye, descends like a collar
around the throat, and broadens out
till the two lines meet on the breast,
like white vest.
There is bright chestnut on the back
OF the neck; the bill is yellow, and the
feet are black, Thus accoutered this
small bird, whose colors are of the
modest hues, is really very handsome
little creature, but so rare is he here
abouts that to discover him again would
create mild sensation in ornithological
circles.
Let me entreat again the folk who de-
light (aS any one must) in the glorious
host of the Summer birds that heart
lessly quit us for the tropics when the
snow flies, not to scorn these little
boreal visitations, because they are so
Subdued OF plumage and of song; let us
not reproach them for being little and
gray and chary of speech, like old
Quaker ladies of long ago. For we
should be only too glad that We are
blest with any bird life whatsoever in
the Winter months; did not these small
beings drift down to lis from the Arctic
wastes, there would be no more birds
hereabouts in Winter than there are
flowers.

A NOTED duel took place just over
n the Chain Bridge, on the Vir-
"A ginia side, between Henry Clay
1 \ and John Randolph of Roa-
noke.
Henry Clay, an American statesman
was born in Virginia, April u. l777.
When he was 21 he was admitted to
the bar, and began practice at Lex
ington, Va. He was very successful, and
was made United States Senator in
1906. In 1911 he was elected Speaker
of the House of Representatives.
During John Adams administration,
Henry Clay was Secretary CT State and
performed the duties OF that office with
great ability. He was candidate for
the presidency several times but was
not successful.
John Randolph was also an Amer
ican statesman and q great politician.
He was born in Virginia, June 2, 1773.
In 1779 he was sent to Congress and
became noted for his wit, his fluency,
and the sharpness of his remarks. He
seemed to take pleasure in annoying
Clay.
The duel between them was the re-
suit of speech John Randolph made
in which the word "blackleg" was used
in connection with the administration
Clay resented it and took it as a per-
sonal thrust.
John Randolph insisted upon fight
ing the duel in Virginia. To this Clay
agreed. Randolph chose pistols. The
distance was 10 PAGES.

GOOD TASTE TODAY

Famous Authority on Etiquette.

ion. 1t is permissible, at informal or
family dinners, to serve buttered
toast or rolls or butter separately-ex-
actly as at lunch or at supper. When
ever butter is included-either on the
bread or separately-bread and butter
plates are put at the places. At formal
dinners and in the houses of the very
conservative, bread or rolls are always
dry; no butter is served and bread
and butter plates are omitted. But
these houses are the exception rather
than the rule, and in these present
days their number is still diminishing.

The mysterious death of pretty Rose
Gender, ribbon clerk, whose body
was found last Dec. % on the ice Of
Rock river, was believed solved today
with a confession attributed 10
Maurice Meyer, former sutton, by
Sheriff F. R. Schleuter.
Meyer, Is, denied he killed Miss
Gender, the sheriff said, but adj
mitted throwing her body from a
bridge to the ice below.
Meyer claimed, the sheriff said,
that Miss Gender fell on the ice III
the rear of cleaning plant which
he operates in Moline, adjoining this
city, and that he was unable to
revive her.
Becoming panic-stricken, he said,
he bound the body, placed it in a
sack, took it to Rock river, and
tossed it over.
Meyer also admitted, the sheriff
said, that he wrote the ransom note
received by the clerks parents de-
handing $1,000. He said he placed
the note on the Gender front porch,
where it was found while a hunt
was on after the girl disappeared
while on the way home from the
store where she sold ribbon.
Meyer expressed a desire to throw
himself on the mercy of the court
and take his punishment. He re-
