no sound. His little stub Of a tall
twitched. He was using his eyes and
his ears and his nose, for he was a
true hunter, was this young Bobcat.
What he expected to catch, or hoped
to catch. was q Mouse now and then.
Still he had once or twice caught q
bird on the ground. So far he had
caught nothing larger.
The path that he was stealing along
Joined the path down which the young
Skunk was slowly making his way,
with the young Fox following at a
discreet distance. The young Bobcat
was the first to reach the point where
the two paths joined. He heard some
one coming down the other path. He
withdrew a little and fiattened him
self under a bush, his eyes cleaning
and that stub of a tail twitching more
than ever.
Presently he saw the young Skunk.
It was the first time he had seen a
Skunk. He knew nothing about the
family. 1t was enough for him that
this little black-and-white stranger
was small, compared with himself, and
that he looked wholly harmless. Here
was hunting worth while. Here was
some one who was big enough TO
furnish him with a good meal. The
yellow eyes of the young Bobcat fairly
giowed as he set his hind feet for
the spring that would land him on
the young Skunk when the latter
should reach certain point.
But just before he came within
leaping distance the young Skunk
turned aside to hunt for some grubs.
The young Bobcat waited as long as
he could restrain his impatience. Being
young. this wasn't long At length he
got to his feet and softly stole forward.
The young Skunk happened TO turn
and saw the young Bobcat just before
the latter was near enough to spring
Instantly the tail of the young Skunk
went up erect and he stamped his
feet. Both the raised tail and the
stamping of the feet were warnings
The young Bobcat didn't know this.
He probably wouldn't have needed

them had he known it. He moved
forward quickly two or three steps and
then set himself for the spring that
would land him on his little victim.
He never made that spring. No. sir,
that was q Jump he never made. You
see, something happened. He didn't
really know what it was that hap
pened, nor did the young Fox who saw
1t all know just what happened. All
they knew was that 1t had to do with
that young Skunk and that the air
was filled with most unpleasant odor
that caused them to choke and
strangle, especially the young Bobcat.
In fact, the young Bobcat screeched,
for something had struck him in the
eyes and for a few minutes he was
quite blind. The young Skunk went
on about his business as If nothing
had happened. The young Fox turned
and trotted straight to his home, and
all the way there he rejoiced. He re-
joiced that he had been wise enough
to step aside when that young Skunk
had demanded that he should.

Natures Children
West Coast Tree Frog (Hyla regilla).

Sometimes in a whole group OF
them no two look alike and you are
not quite sure they are several kinds
of frogs. To the expert, the family
marks are evident and he looks for
them, not the color pattern. 1t Is the
triangular patch between the eyes
and the lengthwise stripes upon the
back that satisfy him. That Is why
it is so important to know the distin-
gushing marks of the outdoor child
you wish to identify with certainty.
These bands and patches may be no
ticeable and at times faint, but they
are there.
This is one Of the tree frogs that
really can change color quickly. Use
your watch to time the change and
if possible jot down the colors be-
fore you place your little friend upon
new one for "clocking." In the
light, the colors are lighter and if
held in strong sunlight the color be-
comes more brilliant and the stripes,
dots and bands apparently fade out.
The time taken is about 10 minutes.
Now try the experiment on a dark
bit Of moss or bark and in a dark
place and watch the deep, rich col
ors of green and brown appear. 1t Is
like holding a magic bit Of jewelry,
only you have the bright, quizzical
eyes watching you every moment.
Look carefully among the low BUSH
es on the ground, where berries and
vegetation are abundant. He loves
the ponds and springs and any moist
place handy. From these secluded
spots you will hear him calling, usu-
ally at dusk and especially on rainy
days.
In the first days of Spring. when
the courting moon shines. vast num-
berS Of them congregate in the shall
low waters. When they all join in
the chorus, you are sure several thou
sand are there. They know how to
amplify.
Look for the eggs in February and
later. Very small and about IS to
the clusters, which are anchored to
leaves and grasses in the very shallow
waters You may even find the newly
weds under leaves or stones near by.
Their family duties are over. The
babies can fend for themselves.

are wells and springs, which are
found about half way across the
Great Basin.
Regilla may be clothed in any
shade of brown. green or gray and he
may decide to have a coat that is dis
tinctly red. There is a narrow band
of black or brown from his nostril
to his eye, which broadenS behind the
eye and continues through his ear to
his shoulder. There also is a light
band which has an edge of a lighter
color. Sometimes you will find the
band decoration carried along the
sides in the form of black dots There
may also be v between the eyes.
His vest and under parts may be
dark or light. The throat is always
dark, which is not true of the fe-
males. There will be found a decided
orange tint posteriorly, All this color
alton is on a wee catcher of gnats, at
best less than inches long.

BY EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: I have de-
~ cided to buy only the pieces OF
furniture and items of household linen
and china and silver and glass that
we will need to start Housekeeping in
our two-room apartment, but to buy
everything good and of type that
can be added to as We find our
selves able to move to better apart
mentS and perhaps finally to our own
house. Mother followed this plan and
she said she found good things re-
mained good and that it was much
more satisfying to have few pieces
she wanted to keep than to become
impatient for the time to discard them
and buy others. The budget will allow
only two types of table glasses-water,
and one for wine-but what type OF
wine glass will give us most service
for general use now?
Ansver-I would suggest that you
buy claret glass.

There was no stopping to look and

little people who wear fur and feathers.
He just went along as II there was no
one else in all the Great World. He
stopped to pull over stones and sticks
that were not too heavy for him. He
dug little pits among the grass roots
here and there to one side or the
other Of the little path. Each time
he got something which he ate with
relish. What it was the young Fox
couldn't see. 1t was q white grub,
that in time would have turned into
a beetle.
Now the young Fox and the young
Skunk were not the only ones out for
themselves in the Great World. Up

youngster who recently had becont

Will you kindly explain the seating Of

Answer.-The host sits on one side

with the man guest on her right. This
