The doctor’s report on Betty’s condition was again encouraging, although <he was far from being out of danger. Still the awful fear that she was on the point of slipping away from them was somewhat lessened when rha doctor came downstairs looking a bit relieved, and told Mr. Hooper that ha was satisfied site had again rallied and that her sturdy little body was holding out well against the ravaging effects of the fever germ. He had been making daily examinations cf Boger and Helen, to be certain that no symptoms were developing in them. He had been watching Roger with particular care as he had appeared more than usually languid for several bot he assured Mrs. Hooper this morning that it was probably because he was missing his usual exercise and the stimulation and activity of association with his schoolmates. ‘•My, won’t mother be sorry to miss all thcae sales," exclaimed Helen as she looked OTer the newspaper after giving her father his tea on the front porch.

I told the Bride what we’d done and she said it was great, and that mother had promised her some of our grapes to ‘try her baud’ on and that she’d want to sample mine and see if It was better than hers. We mustn’t forget to have Roger pick those grapes for her tomorrow ” “W’U have to make some grape jniee for mother, too." said Henry. “I’m sure she’s been planning to put up a lot of ttyit, so we can'bave It sometimes instead of orange juice for breakfast next winter. ' “That's isn’t going to be very hard," said Heien cheerfully. “It’s Just lucky we have all these things to do, isn’t it?"

By AGNES AYRES. Star In Paramount Picture*. Another English touch, this time sports clothes, and that is entirely consistent, for always whan sports clothes are under discussion our eyes turn to England, the home of outdoor sports anil togs. This, yon’d scarcely guess, is a coat, a sleeveless coat. It looks more l - ke daddy forgetting all his manages under the strass of a torrid July night and ap pearing in. unpardonable, his shirt sleeve*. I* is really not fair that daughter, who already has a monopoly on all the thin and comfortable apparel, should add the privilege of appearing in her shirt sleeves, with the approbation of everybody. But. then, who expects a woman to be fair, generous to a fault often and often, but never fair. This waistcoat or sleeveless jacket is made to wear with a separate sports skirt, matching one of th checks lr. color, and with the new o'iJ tailored shirt waists that the realty smart sports woman has been wearing since early spring. But it would serve equally well witk am open coated sports suit, or as an extra wrap to wear under your suit jacket, or your top coat for autoing, or really cold days at the country club. It is not often one finds such a satisfactory combination of good sense and correctness in a garment. I shall run and buy me a waistcoat at once.

I know the ?20 won’t be enough for this week, because mother Just gats through on it, and she never makes those expensive mistakes or has those awful accidents." "Then you expect to have what we call a deficit in your food allowance this week?” “I suppose that’s the right name for it," added Helen, still peering into the depths of the newspaper, "but Roger says well be ‘in a hole - If mother is away much longer, and that sounds mere like what’s happening to the food money " Mr. Hooper laughed at the seriousness of his little daughter as he replied : “Well, older people than you are ’going in a hole’ every day k and yonr mother won’t expect you to do as well as she does with that much money, anyhow Perhaps we can out down next week and get caught up again after our extravagance.” “We’ll just ha e to." said Helpn. and then added, slyly Perhaps you won’t got any meat at ali nex' week ■ Oh. please cut out something else,"

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
By David Cory
Well, you remember in the last story that Pusg Junior was in a little town the day before Xmas. And I hope you haven't forgotten how he bought a fur coat and muffler for a poor little girl. Well, by and bj it grew very late, and the stars came out and the big moon shone down on the quiet earth, which was covered with snow. I guess everybody in this little town had gone to bed early, und Puss was the only person awake. And as he stood looking up into the skies, all of a sudden, he heard the Jingle, Jingle of bells, and the next minute Santa Claus with his relnders dashed by. And when they came to the first house, up went the reindeer to the top of the roof where Santa Claus got out. And while he was slapping his hands
together. Puss Junior Jumped on to the roof and spoke to the reindeer. “Come with us," said Comet. “Jump on my back," said Dasher. "Get in the sleigh,” said Prancer. "Goodness me, I can’t do all these things,” laughed little Puss Junior, and Just then Santa Claus came out of tho chimney, cried “Os course you can,” little Puss Junior. Jump into my slelzk and go with me, for I’m on my way back to the North Pole.” So Puss jumped into the sleigh, and Santa Claus tucked in the big buffalo robe, and then be said: "On with you, Dasher and Prancer, and all the rest of you, I haven’t time to call you all by name, for I want to talk to little Puss Junior." So the reindeer threw out their heels, and away they went over the treetops and over the steeples, and over the heads of tha sleepy people.—Copyright, 1921.
