Keeping House With the Hoopers
(The Hooper;-. an average American family of live, living in a suburban town, on a limited income, will tell the readers of the Dally 'lime* how many present-day problems of the home are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical. Follow them dally in an interesting review of their home lire and learn to meet the conditions of the high coat of living with them.) MONDAY. “Do you think we ought to have the Doctor for Betty,” inquired Henry anxiously, as Mrs. Hooper came back into their room after giving the child a drink of water. "She has had such a restless night and seems so feverish that I'm afraid she is going to be very ill.' “I’m a little bit worried,” acknowledged Mrs. Hooper, “but I shall see what I can do for her today, and if her temperature doesn’t go down under my home treatment. I’ll send for the doctor because- it isn't as if she had been under my eyes all the time, as she has always been. I don’t know to what she may have been exposed or what unusual things she may have eaten.” “Has she been sick at all while she was away,” asked Henry, "Or is this Just a sudden attack?” “Her grandmother said when I arrived on Saturday that she hadn't seemed as bright as usual all day, and her appetite was gone, but that up to theu she had been perfectly normal and well. I knew the minute 1 looked at her, however, that some kind of illness was colhing. That is why I brought her home immediately instead of putting her to bed there.” "Well, she seems to be asleep, now,” said Henry, giving one more look at the child, before starting down stairs for breakfast, “but 1 don't thick you ought to take any chances, Mary, about having the doctor at once.” *T won’t,” replied Mrs. Hooper as she darkened the room, so that Betty might sleep on undisturbed; ’’but she may be alright when she wakes up. as the result of the medicine I have given her.’* Mrs. Hooper had made no comment whatever on the orderly state of the house, when she returned, after having been away from Saturday morning till Sunday night, because the time of her absence bad been very short, she had left nearly everything prepared for just the finishing touches, and there had been not a thing out of place from garret to -basement when she took her departure. She felt that neither Henry nor Roger nor Helen deserved any special credit for having “carried on” perfectly for so short a time, so she made no re-mark about, when' she found that the beds had been carefully made, the rooms put in order, the dishes and cooking utensils washed and In their places and the usual Sunday night supper neatly set out on the table, awaiting her when she came home Altbugh it seemed to Justify her belief that the family was really self reliant enough to take care of Itself If necessary, because of her Insistence that no detail of the house keeping should ever be and that habit had so Impressed Itself on her husband and the chtldren that it would be impossible for them ever to slip into slovenly habits, even though they were left without her supervision, she know that the brief Interval that she had been away had given no opportunity for a fair test. So she refrained from telling Henry that she thought he was absolutely wrong in supposing that he and Helen and Roger could not be trusted to run the house without her. After breakfast she went upstairs to have another look at Betty. The child was still sleeping fitfully, and her little hands and face were burning with fever. Mrs. Hoover was even more alarmed than she had indicated to Henry, as uppermost in her mind was always the desire to save him from worry. She had been watching Betty for nearly forty-eight i hours, and during this time she had exhausted every means at her command to relieve the child, but she felt certain now that she was growing worse Instead of better. Her mother had Insisted that so far as she knew, Betty had been exposed to nothing that was contagious. There had been comparatively few children with whom she had come in contact at the seashore, and among those there had been not the slightest symptom of Illness. Knowing how parleular Mrs. Hooper was about the child's diet, her mother had permitted Betty to eat only the simplest food, so that there was nothing to which the sudden attack could be traced. She kept hesitating about calling the doctor, because her experience so far with all three of the children had been that their little disorders were so simple and fundamental, that a doctor seldom did a thing for them that an Intelligent ■"■wether, such as she knew she was. could ( not do for them equally well. She believed that it was far more difficult for, a strange doctor to diagnose the case of a child, than for its own mother to know the reason for its having fallen ill. and that In most cases more harm than good was done by the hasty summoning of a physician every time a child showed a symptom which If traced to its source by a watchful mother could be readily checked by some simple home remedy. For an hour or two after luncheon Mrs. Hooper had a brief spell of hopefulness that the worst was over, and that whatever had been wrong was yielding to the physic, but toward nightfall Betty's temperature began to mount again and she began to babble deliriously. When Henry reached home Mrs. Hooper j met him at the door. “I’ve sent for the doctor” she said, “and he will be right over.” The menus for the three meals on Tuesday are: BREAKFAST. Canteloupe Cereal

And when the voice stopped singing the lullaby Puss looked around to see who was there, and pretty toon the Dream Fairy of By Lo Land stood, before him. “You have come from a long, long way. Little Sir Cat, on your horse of gray. This is the land of kind, sweet dreams. And the misty light of the soft moon beams Through the curtains of mist that hang so low — Oh, this is the land of the soft By Lo.” “But I don’t want to go to sleep.” aaid little Puss Junior with a grin. “In fact, 1 have met Wee Willie Winkle In Mother Goose Land, with his little white candle. You know he runs from house to house and peeks through the keyhole and sa>s: "It's 9 o'clock and time for bed. So go to sleep, you sleepy head.” And then the Dream Fairy smiled. “Oh, X know Wee Willie Winkle." she said. “But he only puts the children to sleep. I send them pleasant dreams,” and then she faded away In the misty clouds, so little Puss Junior turned his Good Gray Horse around and rode slowly down the mountain side, and by end by. after a while, he saw a little Gnome with a red cap and pointed shoea standing by a big rock. “Helloa. Sir Kitten.” said the little man. and the Good Gray Horse shied, for he was startled, you know, by the litthe man’s voice. “Don't frighten my Good Gray Steed.” said Puss with a grin. “He isn't afraid of giants, but you are so small maybe he didn't see you." “What are you doing np on the By Lo Land Road?” asker the little Gnome. “Oh. Just seeking adventure,” answered Puss. “I have Just met the
Dream Fairy, and now I am on my way down the mountain.” “Let me tell you something.” said the Gnome, and he came up close to the Good Gray Horse and whispered in Pusi Junior’s ear. “lou don’t say so!” exclaimed Puss. “I’ll go and find out,” o he started off once more down the mountainside and by and by he came to a pile of rocks. So he stopped and got off his horse and went around to the rear of the huge Helps make rich, rod blood] and revitalize weak nerves I IS IN WATERY BLOOD RUINING YOUR HEALTH?

For a moment Puss felt dreadfully frightened, for the big black snake had a long red tongue and wicked little eyes, and Puss didn’t know whether he was friendly or not, you see.
