became alert. A door slammed. Cau-
tiously she peeked around the pile OF
brush. A man was going to the barn.
Sounds from the barn told her that he
was doing his morning chores there.
Patiently, watchfully she waited. At
last the barn door opened and the man
stepped out and started toward the
hen house. She tingled all over with
excitement. In a few minutes now she
would know If she was to have q good
breakfast or remain hungry and dis
appointed. Then she remembered the
Dog that she and Reddy were sure
lived In that house He hadn't come
out. Reddy had said that he was de-
pending on that Dog. Her heart sank.
Then man had reached the henyarc
and opened the gate. He entered anc
shut the gate behind him before cross
ing the hen house and letting the
hens out. Again her heart sank. He
began putting out the food for them.
It was then that the door Of the farm
house once more opened and out came
the Dog. He was big and handsome,
Collie. He stretched, yawned and
started toward his master in the hen
ya:d. He was half way there and Mrs.
Reddy was getting more and more
uneasy when there was a sharp bark
over near the barn. The Dog turned
like a flash, stood for a second i'm
movable as if he doubted his own eyes,
and then with yelp Of anger started
straight for Reddy Fox, who was
standing in plain sight. OF course It.,
was Reddy who had barked.
Reddy waited until that Dog was
almost to him, then turned and shot
away with the Dog at his heels yelping
and barking excitedly. They disap-
peared around the barn. The man in
and rushed or. .:~yetting to close
the gate behind him. He ran toward
:sile barn hoping to get a view of the
chase. Swiftly Mrs. Reddy darted out
from behind that pile of brush into
the henyard, seized hen by the neck
and was cut and behind that brush
almost before the frightened hens
knew what had happened.
Mrs. Reddy peeked around the brush.
The man had stopped and was looking
back toward the hens to see what had
frightened them. Seeing no one and
knowing how silly and easily frightened
hens sometimes are, he resumed run
ming toward the barn from behind
which came the excited barking Of the
Dog
Mrs. Reddy dropped the hen she had
dashed back into the yard and seized
the last of the hens before she could
get into the hen house. A minute
later she was back behind that pile Of
brush. Breakfast for two" she gloated
as she looked at her prizss. One for
Reddy and one for me-" Then she
stood listening to the barking of that
Dog.

PETER THE GREAT.

w YHEN we study the lives Of
M rulers Of olden Russia we

found their power and
wealth worth having. They

end they could have the finest palaces
in their land, but they always had
something to fear.
There might be, and often was,
revolt Of the people, and even II they
were able to put that down they had
reason to be afraid CT members OF their
own family. The career Of Car Peter
I, more commonly called Peter the
Great" will give an example Of such
troubles
Fcter was born in 1872 He was the
son of the second wife of Car Alexis
He had one sister, four half sisters and
two half-brothers. Upon the death Of
the Car one Of the half-brothers, the
sickly Theodore, came to the throne
Theodore died after ruling only six
years. Then 1t was the turn Of an
ether half-brother to be crowned, but
he, also, was sickly, and his sister. the
Princes Sophia, caused 10-year old
Peter to be proclaimed Gar.
That action caused civil warfare to
break out, and for years the kingdom
was upset by fighting and by plots to
kill Sophia at length plotsed to have
her one-time favorite, Peter, killed; but
he was warned in time, and ordered
Sophia to be placed in convent, where
she was held for Is years.
When he felt that his power was safe
Peter-a young man in his twenties-
went on tour of Western Europe. He
visited Prussia, Holland and England,
and was much interested in the ways
of the people he visited most of all in
their ships. In those days Russia did
not have an ice-free port, and it became
the ambition of Peter to obtain such a
port.
Peter ended his tour when he learned
that his throne was in danger. Re
turning to Moscow. he made his power
firm once more, but before long his
country was at war with Turkey.
In 1900 peace was made win the
Turks in orGer to Sc. the soldi.rs free
fer war against Sweden.
The war with Sweden dragged on for
81 year., and is sometimes called THE

clear-cut victory, but in the peace treaty
she was given land on the Baltic Sea-

EVERYDAY PSYCHOLOGY
BY DIR. JESSE w. SPROWLS.

I once knew a former United States
Senator who told me similar story.
He was defeated in campaign for re-
election. He began to worry, to suspect
his friends as enemies. Sitting in his
backyard one day, 1t occurred to him
that his trouble was the lack Of mental
occupation. So he went down to the
woods, selected a good-sized sapling,
and tried to pull it out by the roots
Or course, he didn't succeed. But he
tried another and did succeed. Several
