While he was still sitting there q

One saw him. It was fortunate for the
Bold One that Hooty was not SO hun
CRY as he sometimes Is, for, big as the
Bold One was, he was not yet too big
for Hooty to attack. But Hooty had
already had a good meal. He looked
down at the Bold One, snd he saw
that the little Fox appeared not to be
afraid. Are you one of the children
of Reddy Fox?" asked Hooty.
YES" replied the Bold One.
What are you doing over here all
alone?" inquired Hooty.
I'm living here" replied the Bold
One. This is my home" He said this
very Importantly.
Are you all alone?" inquired Hooty.
Certainly" replied the Bold One.

Y YEARS ago the college boys used
" to sing the virtues of goose
berry pie. The song went OH
u to say there was nothing so
luscious as deep gooseberry pie!"
Perhaps it is the filling used by the
Queen of Hearts that made her tarts
on sunny day long ago. And though
the fruit of former days does net COM
pare in size and flavor with thai of
today. those who knew of it could even
praise it in verse.
We in America have such an abun-
dance of wild fruits that we have
somehow passed by without even a
glance at our own wilding that has,
with the able assistance of her CO.
partners, the birds, Travelled from the
Atlantic to the Pacific Coast.
Not until 1847 was there any men,
tion Of the gooseberry as an American
fruit. Then a horticulturist named
Houghton perfected a plant and gave
to it his name. 1t was placed on ex-
hibition before the Massachusetts,
Horticultural Society in that year. Our
native gooseberry then made its debut
and bid for favor.
There is at present steady, though
far from unusual, demand for the
really delicious fruit Those who really
know about it are high in its praise.
In Europe the ripe berries are eaten
with cream, as we do raspberries and
strawberries. In America, with slight
exceptions, the berries are picked green
and turned into jams, jellies and pre-
serves.
We, as nation of pie-lovers, should
learn to know this native of our land
better. There are many corners where
q bush or two would yield handsome
return for the room taken.
Moist spots with a well drained soil
of clay and loan are ideal. But good
results have been obtained on other
soils. These plants awaken early IL
the Spring. The feathery foliage, and
later the small, white, fragrant flowers,
attract the insects and in a short time
there are tiny green berries, well hid
den by the soft green leaves. At this
time watch your bush carefully for

Were better on had they more fear.
THE Bold One was the first of
the eight children of Reddy
Fox to hear and heed the call
= Of the Great World. He had
heard it without really knowing that
he had heard it. He had gone down
on the Green Meadows to hunt for a
Mouse. He had caught Mouse, and
he had turned back, intending to re-
turn home. He didn't really know
why he turned aside into little path
that led to another part of the Old
Pasture, a part Of which he knew little
or almost nothing. All he knew was
that he suddenly felt desire not to
go home. He felt desire to 60 away
by himself. and that desire was so
strong that he took that little path
without really giving the matter a
thought.
1t was not for nothing that he was
called the Bold One. OF all the eight
children OF Reddy Fox, he had from
the very beginning been the boldest.
He seemed to be lacking in fear. He
was unafraid. He went places where
the others hesitated to go. He did
things that the others were slow to
do. So perhaps 1t was natural that
he should be the first one to heed the
call of the Great World and start out
into it for himself.
The Bold One still carried the Mouse
he trnffad oil I,ot
that led him farther and farther away
from home. At last he came to a big.
nat. sunny rock. On this he lay down
and ate the Mouse. For quite a while
afterward he Easked in the sun. At
last he got to his feet For few min
utes he stood there, hesitating, un-
certain which way to CO. Even then
he didn't once think of going back
home.
Presently he jumped down from the
big fiat rock and began to explore
around 1t. He found an old path, a
very faint path that long had been
unused. That is why 1t was such a
faint path. He followed it a short dis
tance. 1t led to hole. The Bold One
knew at once that that hole had been
dug a long time before by Fox. No
Fox was living there now. 1t was an
abandoned home. The young Fox
pulled out the leaves that clogged the
entrance. He dug out some Of the sand
that had fallen back in. Without any
hesitancy whatever he went down
inside. You see 1t was not for nothing
that he was called the Bold One. Down
below he found a snug, dry, perfectly
comfortable bed room.
This settles it," said the Bold One
to himself. This settles it. Here's a

The bidding was quite proper, and
ordinarily three notrump would be
made easily. However, Vests bril-
liant defense made things difficult for
the declarer.
West opened his fourth-best dia-
mond, which was won by dummy's
queen. The lead Of small club was
won by East, who returned the jack
of diamonds, which declarer ducked.
West played another diamond, which
established his suit, dummy discard
ing the jack of hearts.
Declarer then proceeded to run five
club tricks, and as there would then
be only four cards remaining, West
could see that he was squeezed. II he
held the king and one heart. the
blank ace Of spades and one diamond,
declarer could throw him in with the
spade. West could then cash his dia-
mond, but would be forced to lead
into the heart tenace.
AS West could see this coming, he
Immediately discarded two hearts and
eventually held the ace of spades, two
diamonds, and the blank king Of
hearts. Meanwhile the declarer had
decided to play West for the ace of
spades, and so, having elected to take
the heart f1nesse, had discarded down
to the singleton queen of spades and
the ace-ten-nine of hearts. Declarer
then led the queen of hearts, and let
it ride. West took the king and also
the last three tricks, thereby setting
the contract Two tricks.

The Old Gardener Says:

The asparagus bed can be cas-
lily overworked. If cutting is kept
up after the last week in June
the plants will suffer from ex-
haustion. Even then 1t will be
necessary to supply an abundance
of plant food, as the asparagus
bed draws heavily on the fertil-
ity in the soil. The fertilizer
given given now will be used to
develop the plants that will grow
next Springs edible stalks. II
these stalks are to be large and
husky. the bed should be covered
with a liberal amount of fine
stable manure in the event that
this manure can be obtained,
which is not likely in many To-
cations. Without the manure, Is
or 80 pounds of a good CONNER
cial fertilized to each square rod
will give good results. The stalks
should be permitted to grow after
the last cutting, but may be re-
moved before snow flies.

Originally, we have the word after

Ragomofn was the name of an evil

which our great-grand-for took
pleasure in shuddering with horror
and without whom no oldtime mystery
story was interesting or complete.

sand alongside my chair. She wore
a blue bathing suit, which matched
her eyes and set off her bronze hair
rather nicely and looked very pretty.
Though it may have been only an
uncle's tolerant eye.
The child seemed moody thought;
not up to her normal standard of
pertneSs and less the physical dy-
namo than ordinarily. She was look
ing with resentful expression in the
direction of the diving platform, where
various young bloods were riSking
life and limb in the pursuit of what
suppose was for them pleasure.
I said: I've been watching young
Anthony dive. He's rather good at
it, must say. Though how he avoids
breaking his silly neck can't see"
This Anthony was one of host Of
young hounds who surrounded Kate
at the club dances, tripping over each

punch and generally spelling her more
than she was already spoiled by an
indulgent uncle Anthony was the
pick of the lot, I thought, though his
excessive athletic energy often made
me nervous.

Her gaze was fixed on the diving
platform, up which Anthony was
again clambering. Anthony reached
the top and glanced self-consciously
in our direction. Even from here
you could tell that he had pale,
drawn face-drawn, anyway; a kind
Of far-away, tragic look. AS tragic
a look as a healthy young animal
could manage.
Il always knew it," she said. her
eyes still on the diving platform,
where the wretch was preparing for
another dive.
When" I said, patiently. "did the
knowledge become significant? I saw
you dancing together the other night
and you seemed remarkably resigned
to his wretchedness then; and he to
yours. You we're gazing deep into
