noses Of those dogs He would test them
out with some of the simpler tricks
first.
He made his way to a pasture in
which he remembered were some big
powders. From small one he leaped
to a bigger one and from this by a
long leap reached a third. They were
bare, for the wind had blown off the
snow and the sun had melted what
little had been left so that they were
dry and would hold little scent. From
the last boulder, he jumped as far to
one side as he could, circled and struck
his old trail at point the Dogs had
already passed. He trotted back along
this a short distance, leaped to one side
and curled up on big rock to rest
while he waited and watched.
There was no barking now, only an
occasional impatient yelp of the
younger Dog. Reddy grinned. They
had lost the trail. At length he be-
gan to think that he was rid of them.
but few minutes later the deep voice
of the older Dog rang out, followed by
the excited yelps of the other. They
had picked up the trail again. Reddy
grinned again. That old Dog knew his
business. 1t was not going to be easy
to get rid of him. Still Reddy remained
where he was. He would wait until
he found out what they would dc
when they reached the place where he
had run back on his own trail. He
grinned again as he heard them start
in the wrong direction. The barking
stopped.
"That fellow has discovered his mis-
take" thought Reddy. ut is time fol

North now wins the diamond ace
and heart jack.
Points of play:
Upon the lead Of the heart king at
the first trick, South realized that West
should hold for his double spades queen
x, hearts king, queen; diamond king
and the club ace. 1t would, therefore,
be necessary to strip the hand to make
an end play, or to squeeze one of these
high cards to pick up the extra trick
necessary to make his contract.
At trick Z South can see that the
only way he can effect his saving of
trick Is for West to have left the
following cards:
Hearts-Qx Clubs-Ax
Damonds-KXx
If this Is SO, one round Of trumps
will squeeze the hand and then no de-
fense will defeat the four-Spade bid.
If at trick West had discarded the
diamond seven, South would have
played the diamond ace and then a
small one back and ducked it.
If West had discarded a small club
South would have played the club and
West would then have had to lead from
the diamond king, jack, ten, or heart
queen, nine.

He might blunder into one when he
least expected to.
He waited in a certain thicket and
listened to the approach of the two
Dogs. He listened critically. He was
sizing them up by the way they worked.

that bespoke confidence in his won

My Neighbor Says:

To keep waXed floors in good
condition, the wax first must be
allowed to dry thoroughly, and
then floors should be well pol
ished. This will prevent them
from scratching easily. The fin
ish should be renewed as soon
as it starts to wear off.
When baking a pie with two
crusts, as an apple, pick the top
crust with fork to let out the
steam. This will prevent the
crust from bursting at the sides
and letting the juice run out.

the drain pipes of the sink will
keep them free from grease. Do
