Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON w. BURGESS

Who hesitates because Of fear
May lose the things he holds most dear.
1t happens over and over again
among human folks as well as
among the little people of the
Green Forest and the Green
Meadows. Perhaps it was because
he had seen it happen more than
once that Danny Meadow Mouse
acted as quickly as he did. If he
had stopped to think about it fear
might have prevented him from
doing as he did and things might
have turned out quite differently
and not at all so fortunately.
But Danny's wits are sharp and
he has learned to use them quickly.
There is nothing like danger to
sharpen ones wits and Danny, as
you know, is in danger great part
of the time. AS he sat there peep
ing out of the little hole in the
bank of the Smiling Pool where he
had sought safety he was sur
rounded by danger and he knew it.
It wasn't safe to leave and 1t wasn't
safe to remain. Could any one pos
sibly be in worse fix?
He was doing his best to think OF
some way out of his troubles when
he saw the Big Pickerel, which had
been hiding under some lily pads,
swim out to the middle of the
Smiling Pool and there stop close
to the surface as If to enjoy the
sun. Not two minutes later there
was sharp swishing sound In the
air. Danny looked up to see = dark
form shooting down out Of the sky.
It was Plunger the Osprey, often
called Fish Hawk. His great claws
were spread to seize some one and
that some one was the Big Pickerel.

out party.
Seeking the crevices in the rough
bark, the mother will deposit from
700 to 800 eggs in them and depart,
her work for the coming generation
being accomplished. She usually be-
comes the breakfast or dinner for
some creature, bird, lizard or even
party of ant maidens who may
find her lifeless body, carry it to a
convenient spot and de-wing it,
using only the juices of the body.
Within 10 days the eggs hatch and
the grubs or larvae begin at once
their destructive work of feeding on
the wood They bore toward the
heart of the tree (cambium layer
The twigs infested by the small
workers break off, the bark splits
and the evidence is an ugly scar.
You can locate the culprit by the
evidence OF matter and chips at the
entrance to the burrow. The grub,
as grubs go, has a rather long life
tenure. It may be actively engaged
for two years and even may girdle
the tree during its occupancy. A
girdled tree, of course. is doomed; ;
sap cannot hurdle gap.
In two years the grub changes
into a chrysalis and then into q
moth. The leopard grub is not al
ways content to remain in one tree
during its whole youth and may
saunter over to another tree. This
complicates the work of those try
ing to rid the trees of their enemies
and cooperation is necessary among
neighbors to wipe out these clever
foes.
To control this insect is not an
easy accomplishment. When you

In some cases long flexible wires

spending much time and expense to

The vogue for button down the
front dresses continues to be one

made up in one of the charming

throughout the summer, it is lovely
in fresh, crisp cotton. This is one
of these patterns which you will use

monial for a former president Or
to send flowers to somebody's fu-

These are the men who, as the

I am one who believes that charity
begins at home. That whatever
money a man makes his family is
entitled to and that he has no right
to deny them in order to support his
grating relatives. The only excep-
ton I would make to this rule is
his mother. He should divide his
last penny with her. but turn a deaf
ear to the able-bodied relatives who
are chronic borrowers or beggars.
I grant you that it gets on wife's
nerves to have to sit opposite man

as sympathetic as I could wish, be-
cause you must have known what
kind of table manners he had before
you married him. Nevertheless, in
the interests of domestic peace, and
also because the way man eats has
a lot to do with his success or fall
ure in the world, would urge your
husband to listen to your criticisms
and profit by them.
Also I would ask him to remember
that it is even more profitable to
a man to be member in good and
regular standing at home than it is
in a lodge, and to spend as many
evenings with his family as he does

Dear Miss Dix: What about hus-
band who spends every night going
to meetings, but who is always too
tired to do anything around home?
What about one who never has
money to take his wife out, but
can always afford to buy uniforms
and dance tickets for his organiza-

about man who leaves his wife to
sit home, night after night, by her
self because she won't go to parties
where there is drinking bunch?
What about a mans manners?
Can't a wife say something when
her husband leans his elbows all
over the table and eats with his
knife and talks with his mouth full?
What about a husband who sends
money home to his people when he is
in debt? Is it necessary always to
be in debt by giving in-laws money?
How am I going to get said husband
to read what you write about it?
1t is only when you write something
about the wives that he reads your
articles and says how good they are,
THE WIFE.

right, though he will never admit it

These are the convex profile with
the prominent nose and receding
forehead and chin, the retrousse

nose, and the long-chinned profile
so unkindly referred to as the

Hair and millinery can do wonders
to bring these irregular profiles
into line.
Too many women consider only
the front view of the coiffure and
are crushingly oblivious of the

And so upswept hairlines are vital.
That is why you can't have curls on
the neck.
But you can wave the hair and
in that way build up the back OF the
head so that the neck looks less
shorn. And having the most width
on a level with the eye gives the
nose a noticeable recession.
Hats, of course, should follow the
hair contours. Any forward-sWeep-
ing hat is suavely flattering to this
type.
This may mean brims or sWoopinc
twisted crowns or whatever forward
movement is in vogue.

II know it is going to be expen-
sive, but I want her to have the
best possible background and the
right associates. We will have to
make some sacrifices for her. I am
sure don't mind"
Il wouldn't mind if I thought we
could make the grade, but I don t
see how we. on salary, can do
what these other people do on big
income. Sending her to the private,
select school is only the beginning
There will be clothes, social obliga-
tions she will have to meet, the
things that 60 with that standard
of living. I don't think it is wise
to start her off on footing she can
not hold. I'm against it,"
So am I. There are reasons, and
good ones. for sending children to
schools of our own choosing, but
there is no reason for sending them
to schools that cost too much for
the family's ability to pay. There is
no profit in placing child among
group with whom she cannot asso-
ciate naturally. Sooner or later the
child must learn, usually with pain
full effect, that he cannot make
friends with his schoolmates. He
cannot return their hospitality, can
not attend their parties, or go along
on their trips.
There is nothing that makes for
such grinding unhappiness as a de-
sire to be what one is not and cannot
be. The child born to a family in
middle-class circumstances will be
quite happy in his own group, but
if he is placed among wealthier chill;
dren with the idea of living as they
live and doing as they do, he will
be everlastingly dissatisfied, rest
less and a failure.
Success in any field must depend
upon a persons ability to adjust
himself to conditions. If the condi-
tions can be met this is not so hard
but If they cannot be met the ad-
justment is impossible, and mental
and spiritual unrest must result.
Why try to force such impossible
adjustments? A child can he happy
and successful where he blongs. He
can develop his talents in the school
whose price is within the family's
power to pay. A school is place
where children are helped to develop
their latent abilities, and as that is
all any school can do, the low-priced
one and the high-priced one alike
why make everybody unhappy, the
whole family live under a strain, tc
no end? Why not center on the
fact that child is going to school
to develop mind and body fit for
his work?
Pretending is a costly business
1t makes for insincerity, for all sorts
OF secret scheming, petty gestures
that belittle the soul. A family is
entitled to pride in its own right
Pretending ito a place one has not
which one cannot fill, is belittling
that pride, disowning ones heritage
Send the children to the school,
that can be paid for. Buy them the
Clothes. give them the background
that costs no more than the family
can pay. Leave the rest to the chill
dren. Given good health, intelli-
gence, and education, they can &C
the rest of the way themselves. They
do not need pretentious trappings
Let them be who they are, what they
are, and, above all, secure their hap
piness and success by teaching then
to live within their means.

The problem here is to bring that
nose into line. The most important
thing to do is to carry the hair for
ward 10 mask the receding forehead
and balance the nose.
Another grave mistake in the right
hand sketch is the curl on the level
with the eye, narrowing the face
where width is most needed.
In the left-hand sketch this curl
is brushed back. You may wonder
why we didn't bring the hair down
over the cheeks.
The trouble with that is this face
needs lifting.
