Little Benny.
BY LEE PAPE.

ME AND pop and ma ate dinner at
AvA the Hewses house last mite, and
I was brushing my shoes special for
the occasion and ma said, Now, re-
member, Benny, expect you to be
on your good behavior and wait
for things to be passed to you and
not start any clamorous demanding,
do you understand?
Yes, nam, I said.
And we went to the HewSes and
they had frickasee chickin and things
for dinner, everything tasting swell,
but it would of taisted sweler If 1
had of had some butter on my bread.
Wich I didn't on account Of the but
of the table and nobody having the
ideer to pass 1t to me, and thawt.
Heck, what goods bread without but
ter, what goods anything If there's
no butter on your bread?
And I started to look down lords
the other end of the table with
limiting expression, ony nobody
noticed me except myself, and after
a while Mrs. Hews said, Well, Benny,
7 hope you're injoying this frickasee
chickin. you know it's my famous
speciality.
Yes man, it's good, said, and Mrs.
Hews said, And how are the mash
potatoes. I'm quite well known for
my mash potatoes also.
They're good too, I said. And she
didn't say any more and ! said, |
think the breads good too, but I'm
not sure.
Why Benny, ma said, and Mrs. Hews
said, That's quite all rite. it's from
the bakery and have no personel
feeling about it. AS matter OF fact
I've had my own sispicions lately
about it's quality. she said. and I
said, Maybe you been eating it with
out butter too.
The result being I got the butter
and everybody laughed including ma,
me just leeving them laugh and
spreding my bread bubble exter thick
to make up for lost time.

Parents 7 a|es
BY ANGELO PATRI.

TALEBEARING children are COM
mon enough. Everybody's hand is
against them. They receive the
prompt reproof their failing merits.
But who says anything about the
talebearing adult? The father or
mother or fond relative who spreads
the news Of child's mistake from
one end of the town to the other.
It Is particularly unkind OF grown
I'D people to tell tales on children
change of opinion concerning them.
They feel disapproval even when it
is expressed in silence. They suffer
at the thought of public disgrace. Yet
thoughtless grown-ups tell secrets
without restraint. A childish mistake
is a joke. A serious mistake IS cause
for public lament. This ought not
to be so.
Public opinion is the main support
of character. This is SO for grown
up people and it is doubly true for
children. Tell good news Throughout
the world and every heart lifts.
Broadcast sadness and the whole
world mourns. Again, this is true for
children to a greater extent than 1t
is for adults They depend upon their
self-respect for courage to go on, and
when you rob them Of that by telling
their faults they give up and let go.
Frank brought home a report card
with red mark in arithmetic.
Frank does not know his nine times
table," was the note accompanying
the mark. Father looked at the card
and said: $50 you don't know your
nine times. You're a fine one. A
baby would know that. And you're
years old. Shame yourself"
Father said nothing about the good
marks on the card, although there
were eight of them. Every time an
other member of the family came In
he showed Franks report card and
the awful record on u. Frank
shriveled up. He stopped talking.
Then he stopped eating. Then he
went to bed sick. I'VE don't know
what ails him, DOCTOR"
1t did not take the doctor long to
see that Frank had no disease of the
body. Something was troubling the
child's mind and making his body
sick. It took him longer to find the
real cause of that difficulty, but when
he won the little boys confidence he

start" he lifts his tail high in the
air. ready for action. At the base OF
his tail there are two glands. These
guns are worked by two powerful
muscles. They can eject the liquid
penetration for some distance. While
there are only three drops Of the
condensed perfume, it is known to
scent the air for mile.
AS I have said, the skunk really
gives you fair warning before firing.
The animal faces his foe first. With
uncanny ability to Judge distances
and target, he turns about with his
gun facing his enemy. and fires one
round. maybe two! If the liquid fire
gets into the eyes of his enemy. it is
maddening. Not only the odor is
dreaded by animals, but 1t is the
singing gas they fear.
In the early Spring the skunks go
a wooing. The home has been located
before the suitor weds. It is in a hol-
low log, roomy stump, deep, protected
cave near some roots of a giant tree,
or in an ordinary cave. He may
have built a roomy apartment him
self, and lined it with fresh leaves or
grass. or he may have used a vacant
| home of another. It will be made
fresh and clean and free from all
odors. A skunk Is very clean about
his person and home.
For six weeks the happy pair lives
together in the home. Then the hus-
band finds his wife seems to have q
bad temper, and she drives him from
the door every time he appears. He
goes away and brings her a nice.
plump mouse. a juicy grasshopper or
beetle. She snatcheS it from him
with snarl and goes into the house
alone.
Later the lonely husband peeps into
his home and sees four, or even six,
naked little skunk babies, without
hair among them; ugly, blind and
helpless. The mother rushes at him
and he fees for his life.
Later, on moonlight night, he
sees his wife lead forth, in single file,
six of the handsomest skunk children
he ever saw in his whole experience.
after all, they are my children"
! is his attitude, and he strolls boldly
up to the family party. He Is per-
mitted to remain. His wife, no doubt,
knows that it will be some undertak-
ing to teach six children to hunt and
detect enemies. They are born
marksmen and need no target prac-
tice.
All Winter they live together in the
home, and separate in the early
Spring.
Baby skunks make wonderful pets.
A minor operation by an expert. to
remove the scent glands, is all that
Is necessary. The wood pussies are
| very afectionate- With the menace
Of their guns removed, you have a
most interesting playfellow.
The wolf, badger, fox and great
horned owl are their dreaded enemies.
Certain Indians eat the skunk and
say the meat is very good.

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS.

Rattles had wanted to build in the
same bank they had built in the year
before, but there were certain reasons
why Mrs. Rattles didn't want to build
there, and she fatty refused to con-
slider it. None of the other banks
suited her, and Rattles was beginning
to be fearful that they might have
to go to another section altogether, a
place too far for him to visit the
Smiling Pool every day, when one
morning Mrs. Rattles joined him in
the Big Hickory, where from his
favorite perch he was watching for
a ninnow in the water below.
Never mind that fish. Come with
me-" said she.
"Where?" asked Rattles, never TAX
ing his eyes from the water.
ITO begin work on our new home.
1t is high time it was started" said
she
Rattles forgot that he was watching
for fish. do you mean to say that
at last you have found place to suit
you?" he demanded.
i have found the place where We
are going to build. Come along"
she replied shortly, and took to her
wings.
There was nothing for Rattles to
do but follow. She led the way down
the Laughing Brook for short dis
tance, then turned straight across the
Green Meadows toward the Old Pas
ture. Rattles tried to catch up with
her. He didn't like the idea of leav-
ing the water. He couldn't imagine
where she could be leading him. But
he didn't catch up with her until
they reached the gravel pit. She
alightec on a stub projecting over
the top.
What do you think Of this?" she
demanded.
i don't think much of it," replied
Rattles.

How 1t Started
BY JEAN NEWTON.
"Single Blessedness.

WE ARE all familiar with the ex-
Nv preston single blessedness" for
the unmarried state. Although it is
in daily use IN modern speech, its
author is Shakespeare.
We find the words coined in the
comedy "a Midsummer Nights
Dream.' 1t is in the first scene Of
the first act, when Egeus complains
to the duke that his daughter Hernia
will not marry the man of her
fathers choice, and Hernia asks the
duke what will be the penalty II she
persists in her refusal, that the duke
says:
EITHER to die the death, or to abjure
To undergo such maiden pilgrimage
To live a barren sister all your life
Chanting faint hymns to the cold
fruitless moon.
Thrice blessed they that master SC
their blood,
To undergo such maiden pilgrimage;
But earthlier happy is the rose dis
titled,
Than that which, withering on the
virgin thorn,
Grows, lives and dies in single bless
ednesS."
According to the author of the ex-
preston, single blessedness" would
not seem very blessed. There are
modern bachelors of both sexes, how
ever, who would take issue with the
bard.

clubs, because I know now that the
no-trump bid was a psychic. Before
this, I merely suspected it. I believe
we have a game, if you can show me
suit. II your hand is definitely short
suited, however, you may double the
club bid. leave the choice up to you. "
Every time I advocate a certain bid
on certain type of holding, however,
some bright player uses the bid PSYCHE
cally in an attempt to fool the op-
ponents. For example, with the two
hands which / gave above, the bidding
might presumably go: pass, pass, one
club, double, redouble.
If the responding hand takes any
action other than a no-trump barri-
cade. you have to give your partner a
free bid in your weak diamond suit in
order to show him that your hand is
not entirely devoid Of strength. Then,
II your partner bids either one of the
majors, you can give him one raise.
He may thus be able to decide the fu-
ture of the hand
Suppose, however, that the respond
ing hand gives double raise in clubs
You must reluctantly pass. 1t seems
likely that your partners double was
a weak, strategical one. In the event
that the bidding is passed to him, he
still has an opportunity to show a con-
cealed suit, which you can, Of course
raise. If the opponents should, by any
happy chance, bid up to five clubs, you
can certainly double.

Natures Children
BY LILLIAN cox ATHEY.
Common Skunk.

r ERE is a friendly soul, so wide
iy distributed from coast to
coast that almost every one
i i knows him by sight and many
by experience. He is Stunned
by every creature. Why? Because,
like so many of natures children, lit
tie Is known Of the habits of this
handsome fellow and his cousins.
Three kinds of skunks inhabit
Northern and Central America. Each
has a number of species and varieties.
The habits of all are the same. The
only difference is the size, number OF
stripes or spots and skull formation.
This one is familiar to dwellers in
the eastern part of the United States.
He is also known as the wood pussy"
and the perfume dispenser"
Clothed in a glossy black coat Of
fur. with two stripes running down
his back and onto the tail, and one
down his forehead. this fellow Is
easily identified. The handsome tail
reminds you Of plume.
The skunk is a gentleman and gives
you fair warning If you learn to read
the signs. When you see the tail
waving aloft, after you have received
the notice he has given you by stamp
ing his foot, then you are in for it
and you had better run.
Whatever may be said of the
skunk. his gun is used only in self
defense and is his only weapon
When they fight with each other the
atomizer is never used.
Though the skunk is always given
the right Of way, If he finds that your
intentions are friendly he may lift
his flag. but lower it again, If you
pass quickly along your way.
Walking with quiet dignity along
the path, the skunk may or may not

ence that is not preceded by some
other item which Is in some respect

characterize the world of mental life
as completely they do the world of
physical facts.
OF course, these connections are
hard to trace. They string alone in
a continuous chain. composed of mil
lions Of mental links. So, in order
to obtain anything like an adequate
picture Of the situation, you con-
slider the groupings of ideas which
bear upon given situations.
In this way you find an individual
thinking one way at one time, an
other way at another time. The
individual, at any given time, is the
mathematical balance of a host OF
additions and subtractions In psy-
Geological terms, this summation is
known as the personal equation.
Temperament is a good word for the
same thing.
There are various ways of calcu-
lating the equation. Some think that
childhood experiences are the most
important links. Others contend
that your most recent experiences
are more influential. Both views
are correct. One explains the per-
sonal equation at one time, the other
at another time. That's why the
personal equation is hard to figure

the card and what father did. OF
course father was very sorry. He
only wanted to make Frank work
harder. He wanted to shame him
into it.
Nobody was ever shamed into doing
anything worth while yet. Many a
shivering, fearful soul has been car

praise. Try that instead of spread

Frank had eight good marks the song

them. "See how many good marks

MOTHER form of psychic bid
n used in tournament play is the
~ barricade. For example, the
4 \ bidding goes pass, pass, one
club, and now your partner,
fourth hand, doubles. Two. or possibly
three, no trumps, instantly responds
the dealer. If you have anything at
all in your hand, you should be sus-
picious Of a psychic bid. It's evident
that some one is lying. Either your
partner has made a weak, strategical
double, in which case first hands best
policy. holding the primary tricks
shown by his Jump bid. would be to
redouble and wait for your side to get
into trouble. If his side holds the pre-
ponderance Of high cards, he knows
that your partner cannot afford to let
the redouble stand. Three clubs made,
doubled and redoubled at one, scores
480 points, more than the value of a
nonvulnerable game.
The prospects are much more likely
that he holds hand such as the fol-
lowing:
sp. Di K10xx
n n
He is perfectly willing to go down
fifty trick at any no-trump bid un-
doubled. If doubled, he plans to run
to clubs with a small loss, even If
again doubled. He feels that the bid
ding Is so high at that point that
you and your partner cannot get to-
gether constructively.
Therefore, if you have any sort Of a
suit bid at that point, you must show
it, SO that your partner may know as
soon as possible where your strength
lies. Trust your partner-not the op-
ponents.
The problem is little more difficult
when you have a hand like the fol-
lowing:
Sp. Aox 2. d. oJxx
The only thing you can do is double.
This is an urgent invitation to your
partner to bid. Presumably, he has
strength In one or both the majors,
and since you have shown him that
you have no biddable suit of your own,
ne knows that you can support any bid
he makes. Let's assume, however, that
he leaves the double in, and first hand
rescues himself In three or four clubs.
Now you can make use Of one of the
finest bids in my system-passi This
def1n1tely tells your partner, I doubled
two no trumps because I had some
primary trick strength which wanted
to show you. do not double three
