I understand that it is a matter
of precedent not to mention one news"
paper in the columns of another;
therefore, I shall simply state that a
great metropolitan daily rearranged
its cards in the North, and opened a
club. A low card was played from the
A. p, the U. P. put on its singleton,
and another metropolitan daily won
the trick with the ten spot.
The ace of spades took the queen
and a second club was returned,
West again winning-in order to take
the nine of spades finesse. When that
held up, West assumed that the queen
of hearts finesSe would work. 1t did.
After that the hand was simple.
South parted with enough to bring
him down to the doubleton king OF
hearts, and the queen Of diamonds,
third, as club after club was run, but
when the fourth spade was played from
the East hand, discarding, became a
tender point with the U. P. A diamond
chuck sets up the ten spot for the
declarer. A heart discard leaves an
appalling situation whereby the king
and jack will both drop on the ace,
setting up the ten spot.
So you see, six no trumps can be
made.

- TICKYTOES the Tree Toad was
for just q wee instant par
alyzed with fright. He was in
- a tree near Farmer Browns
house, tree in which he had been
living ever since he returned from the
Smiling Pool in the Spring In all
the time that he had been living there
he had had nothing to give him a real
fright. So he had grown to feel that
no real danger was possible in that
tree. This is always bad state Of
mind to get into. Danger is always
possible everywhere, so 1t never is
wise to be careless at any time.
Stickytoes had just found this out.
He was staring into a pair Of unwink-
ing eyes, the last eyes in all the Great
World that he wanted to stare into.
They were the eyes Of Mr.. Blacksnake,
and in them there was hungry look.
Stickytoes knew by the look which
he saw in those staring, unwinking
eyes that Mr.. Blacksnake saw him.
He knew then that 1t was useless and
would be fatal to sit still. There was
only one thing to do and that one
thing was to put as much distance as
possible between himself and Mr..
Blacksnake. The latter struck and
Stickytoes jumped at the same in
slant. Stickytoes was just in time
and no more. If he had been just q
wee, wee, wee bit slower in jumping
he would have been too late As it
was, he didn't see where he was jump
ing. He didn't have a chance to pick
out landing place. He just made
one wild, frantic jump. trusting to
luck that he would land safely some
where.
As it was, he caught hold Of twig
with one hand and the sticky little
fingers chung tightly. There he swayed,
back and forth, hanging by one hand,
but those sticky fingers Of his chung
tightly. He pulled himself up until
he could get hold of the twig with the
other hand. Then he pulled him
self up little farther until he could
get hold with his sticky toes. Finally
he was safely on. the main branch
from which that little twig grew.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Blacksnake had
wasted no time. It was amazing to
see how easily and swiftly he moved
about in that tree. despite the fact
that he had not hands or feet, no
claws with which to cling. Just the
same, he was quite as much at home

Skin Serves
AS anIndeX
For Health
Nutrition Is Related
to It's Functions in
Governing Body.
RY JAMES w. BARTON, M. d.

BY JAMES w. BARTON, M. d.
WE MAY well say that the skin
w is like the individuals visit
ing card serving as an index OF MS
health and nutrition"
I am quoting the words Of DR..
Nicola Pende. professor of medicine,
University of Genoa.
For many years the skin was con-
sidered Just a covering or bag which
held together the tissues and organs
of the body. Today we know that it
is an organ" of the body equal in
importance to any other organ. 1t
not only acts as covering or protec-
ton. but is connected with the work.
1ngs of all parts Of the body and
capable of affecting these workings.
Thus it manufactures pigments or
coloring matter, is an endocrine or
ductless gland acting with the liver,
kidneys and the adrenal glands, stu
ated one on top of each kidney, and
helps the kidneys and liver to rid the
blood of poisonS. 1t also acts against
poisons that penetrate the body
through the skin. 1t gathers the rays
of the sun and transfers the beneficial
and bodybuilding effects OF these
sun rays to the blood, which in turn
carries them to all parts of the body.
It regulates the loss OF heat from the
body by means of the perspiration
that is seen and also that which Is
unseen. 1t has the ability to gather
various impressions such as heat,
cold. pain, touch and other sensations
and sends them to the brain by way
Of the nerves.
The above gives us an idea OF the
IMPORTANCE of the skin to health, to
life and to safety.
When the skin has lost its elas-
ITCHY and has an old or aged appear
ance with wrinkling of the forehead
and about the eyes, it is believed to
be due to a lack of sufficient juice
from certain glands, such as the thy
roid in the neck and the pituitary IN
the base Of the skull.
Physicians are able to recognize
certain ailments, such as eczema,
arthritis, poor nutrition, by means OF
the color and texture of the skin.
Excessive perspiration of the skin
Is believed to be due to too much juice
being made by the thyroid gland in
the neck and by the pituitary in base
of skull, whereas excessive dryness is
due to a lack of these juices.
Therefore we must think OF the
skin, not as a mere covering, but as
an organ that does certain useful jobs
in the body, and also tells us about
the condition of internal organs and
glands.

Bait DER Herr

THIS exceedingly Hollandish-sound-
ing name is derived from the
Dutch word "veer," meaning ferry.
There Is town In Holland caller ''Ter
Veere," from which the family Van
der Veer probably assumed the name.
The American colonist, Cornelis
Janzen Van de veer, came from Ak
maar, Holland. to New Netherlands
in 1859 and settled in a part of
Long Island now known as Flatbush.
He purchased land, became a magis-
trate and was one of the patentees
of the town, then called Midwout.
Dominicus Van der Veer, the son
of the immigrant Cornelis. lived in
New Utrecht, Kings County, New
York. He served as captain Of militia
in IT'S, and was sheriff in 1885. His
son Tunis moved to New Jersey, set
Ting in Monmouth County. From this
branch of the Van der Veer family
sprang many descendants now living
in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and other
States. -.s,.., ~,

below. Mr.. Blacksnake never once lost
sight OF him. He lowered himself
swiftly to that branch and once more
Stickytoes was forced to leap.
This time, as when he made his
first jump, he caught a twig by one
hand. 1t was very small twig and
Stickytoes swung to and fro, to and
fro, in the most alarming manner.
That is, it would have been alarming
to any one watching him. It wasn't
alarming to him, for Stickytoes Is a
real little acrobat. He chung to that
twig with one hand, then got hold
of it with both hands. He glanced up
at Mr.. Blacksnake and then Sticky
toes let 60. Right under him was a
spreading branch and he knew he
couldn't miss 1t. He didn't. He landed
on it and chung.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Blacksnake was fol-
lowing as fast as he could. Stickytoes
made three flying leaps in succession,
so fast that Mr.. Blacksnake lost sight
of him. Then, far out where the twigs
were very slender. Stickytoes sat per-
fectly still, partly hidden by the leaves,
and gradually his coat turned green.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Blacksnake vainly
hunted for him.

It's the fellow in front that jar
IF THE giant salamander could
talk I am sure he would recite
this bit CT verse for you. Though
- fierce looking and stable, too,
this creature is perfectly harmless.
Once you have made the aequaint-
ance of one member Of this tribe
and in this column, you have met
several-you will seek opportunities to
meet others. Becoming well aware OF
the fact that the outdoors is teeming
with creatures whose life stories are
thrilling adventures adds zest to
your walks abroad.
This fellow is abundant in the Sus-
quehanna River. where he is referred
to by the fishermen and anglers as
the water dog" The name is mis-
leading and really belongs to another
and smaller species of water -inhabit-
ing salamander.
1t may also. be found in the waters
tributary to the Ohio River, in West
ern New YORK from the Great Lakes
to Iowa, and in the South you will
find it in Georgia, North Carolina
and Louisiana.
Besides being perfectly harmless,
the hellbender is good to eat. The
flesh is firm and tender. It tastes
like frogs leg. and it is dressed In
the same way as you do an eel. The
pieces of meat are dipped in f1ne
bread crumbs and fried in butter or
other fats. According to those who
have the authority to speak, the
flavor and tenderness are unsurpassed.
So, in case your bean supply runs
out, and your camp is near one of
the places where hellbenders are
plentiful, here is q tip.
When fully grown the giant sala-
mander is two feet long. His broad
head and general expression lead you
to think he is plain dumb or indif-
ferent. Along the sides of his body
there is thick fold of skin. It looks
as if it had had a permanent wave.
When the creature is swimming, this
fluted trimming gives him fraZzled
look. However. the hellbender Is not
bothered about his looks; the skin
trimming is a great aid when the
owner Is swimming The four legs
do help him to get about, but most

The Old Gardener Saws /:

The best time to cut garden
herbs which are to be used in the
kitchen is just before they come
into flower. It Is then that they
develop the very best flavor.
Herb experts are careful to cut
their plants early in the morning
or as soon as they have become
free from dew. The hot sun of
midday tends to burn out some
of their essential oils. After be-
ing cut, the herbs should be tied
in loose bundles and hung up
side down In an attic or warm
room. When they become brit
tie dry they may be rubbed be-
tween the hands until reduced to
q powder and stored in glass jars
with tight tops.
