Oil and other large companies have
their own airplanes, which they use
for advertising purposes and to trans
port officials on hurried business trips
The head of one of these companies
decided to take his first trip in a com,
pany plane and, never having flown
the head man before, the pilot was
bit excited about it and wanted to
make a good impression. He showed
the passenger the working parts of
the plane and explained to him about
his parachute. When the time came
for the take-off, he turned to the pas
senger behind him and said:
"When we get to the mountains we
may have to fly pretty high. You are
not used to that and may feel the alti
tude, but that is the oxygen tank right
beside you. I'll look back to see how
you are doing and, If you seem to be
feeling the height, I'll call to you and
all you have to do Is to work that
little handle" y
Everything went smoothly until they
began to get up pretty high and then
the pilot looked back. The passen'
ger looked little greenish, so the
pilot jerked his thumb In the direc.
ton of the tank and yelled pump !"
Then he turned back to his Job. A
little Jolt or something caused him to
look back again. There was no pas
senger. The boss had understood the
pilot to yell jump" and had bailed
out. He had succeeded in pulling the
ring and there he was far below float.

There was no place the pilot could

him almost q day to find the boss and
another day to persuade him to get
back into the plane.

RABBIT IS TASTY
IF COOKED RIGHT
Camey Flavor Can Be Saved by
Proper Preparation.
By EDITH M. BARBER


America was once famous for It's
game and earned well-deserved repu-
tation for it's cooking in some parts
Of the country. Now game is a lux
ury. We are all delighted If hunting
friends share with us some OF their
bags during the season. This is In
deed, a sign of real friendship, as the
number Of birds, for instance, which
any hunter may shoot Is limited.
Occasionally you may see game on
the menu of good restaurant; ven
ison more often than any other kind.
One German restaurant imports 1t
from abroad, and l know of no place
where it is better cooked. Nenison
chops we'll grilled, sweet potatoes and
mint jelly are something to dream
about.
I always grasp an opportunity to go
during the pheasant season to the
home of hunting friend, and there
will be treated to game dinner which
will sometimes consist of both part
ridge and pheasant. They are roasted
after Harding with salt pork and
served with bread sauce. Wild
crab-apple jelly made from the fruit
Of a tree on the farm is served with
the game
Ducks, you know, wild ducks, are
supposed to be merely passed over the
fire. A taste for ducks cooked in this
way sometimes has to be cultivated by
STRANGERS TO their flavor
Often l hear people say that they
don't like rabbit-many times, after
inquiry, l find that they have never

er they did or not-they had never
tasted it.
Almost anyone who has spent any
time abroad has acquired, sometimes
necessarily, a taste for rabbit. was

for rabbit stew. The rabbit was very

The trouble with children who will

No appetite, no ambition-even for

wake in the morning.
There's an absolute remedy for
this condition. It gives listless
youngsters the appetite and ener-
