BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN By THORNTON W. BURGESS

NANNY IS SURE DANNY IS DEAD THE silvery light of sweet Mistress Moon flooded the Green Meadows and chased the Black Shadows clear back to the very edges of the Green Meadows. It was just such a night as a Meadow Mouse loves, and Nanny Meadow Mouse would have enjoyed it and rejoiced In It and been thoroughly happy but for one thing. The truth Is. Danny Meadow Mouse had spoiled that beautiful night for Nanny Meadow Mouse. He didn't know he had, but be had. You see. Nanny was worried and her worry was all on account of Danny. The newest babies were quite safe In their snug nest, hidden—well, I won't tell you Just where it was hidden. That was Danny's and Nanny's secret, so I guess I haven't any right to tell you Just where that snug little nest was. If I did they might not trust me again. Anyway, those newest babies were quite safe, because they were too young to crawl out even if they should waken, which they were not likely to do because their little stomachs were full. 1 * *A «’* X. He Certainly Must Be Dead; Nanny Was Sure of It. Little Meadow Mice are like other babies io that when their stomachs are full they sleep and grow. So Nanny didn't worry about the babies. The half-grown children had romped and played in the moonlight until they had become so tired that they were glad to curl up In their beds. They were dreaming the pleasantest of Meadow Mouse dreams. So Nanny didn’t worry about them. But she did worry about Danny Meadow Mouse. Why <*•*• ‘t he come home! Never

since she bed known him had Danny been gone so long. Something must have happened to him. She was sure of it Had Reddy or Granny Fox caught him? She hadn't seen either of them on the Green Meadows that day, but one of them might have been there long enough to catch Danny without being seen by her. Or perhaps Black Pussy the Cat from Farmer Brown’s had surprised Danny. She had seen Itedtail the Hawk sailing' over the Green Meadows twice during the day and it might be that he had dined on

Question box k, ED WYNN, The Perfect Fool

Dear Mr. Wynn: I have just taken a job as a waiter In a downtown restaurant. I don’t get a big salary; ao depend a lot on my tips. Today a man had his meal, and when I gave him his check he said he could not give me a tip, as he only had enough money to pay the check. I’ll never make any money that way. What shall I do the next time a man says that to me? Tours truly. L SERVyTELL. Answer: The next time a man says be only has enough to pay for bls check Just take the check back and add It up again. Dear Mr. Wynn: I have a girl friend who has a nasty habit of always saying nasty things about all the other girls. Everybody knows that about her. yet last, night a boy friend who knows her said she was something to adore. What do you make out of that? Sincerely. C. KRITS. Answer: When be said she was something to adore he probably meant that she was a knocker. Dear Mr. Wynn: I went to a school dance the other night danced with the same girl twice. She let me take her home, and as I left her I told her I thought she was the sweetest girl In the whole world and now she won’t go out with me any more. I wonder why? Truly yours, WHATT SRONG. Answer: She doesn’t want to disappoint you. Dear Mr. Wynn: I am a girl seven years old. My I MINUTE MAKE-UPS I Ivl—r— - ByV.V. The fashion for metallic touches has extended even to make-up.

Danny. It was a dreadful thought She couldn’t get rid of It If something dreadful hadn’t happened, Danny never would have stayed away like this. Nanny tried to be hopeful. She tried to take a nap, for she was very, very, very tired. But she couldn’t sleep. She couldn’t even keep still She kept creeping out to look along the private little paths she and Danny had made through the grass, hoping each time to see him hurrying home along one of them. Sweet Mistress Moon climbed higher and higher in the sky and then began to go lower and lower, and the Black Shadows began once more to creep out across the Green Meadows. Soon Jolly, round, red Mr. Sun would come up to chase them away altogether and a new day would begin. Still no Danny. He must be dead. Nanny was sure of it. C T. W. Bursees.—-WNU Service.

teacher in Sunday school asked me how many commandments there are. I said, “ten,” then she said, “suppose I broke one?” and I couldn’t answer her. Now she says I can’t come back to Sunday school until I bring her an answer. Can you help me? Truly yours, MAY B. U. KNOE. Answer; That’s very simple, my child. If there are Ten Commandments and you broke one there would bte nine left. Dear Mr. Wynn: For the past three weeks I have been touring through New England tn an auto and I noticed nearly every farmer had a weather vane on the roof of his barn in the shape of a rooster.

Fruit Sherbet Make a sirup of three cupfuls of water and one and one-half cupfuls of sugar and boil Ove minutes; add the juice of one lemon and two oranges with a little of the rind of each and a cupful of banana pulp. Peel and scrape bananas and put through a ricer or sieve. Beat the fruit mixture and sirup together, chill and stir in three cupfuls of whipped cream, or the whites of three eggs. Freeze to a soft mush. Braised New Cabbage. Melt one-fourth of a cupful of sweet fat in a saucepan, add two green apples and two onions finely chopped; cook gently for three minutes, then add one shredded cabbage, three cloves, onehalf cupful of vinegar, salt and pepper to season. Cover tightly and simmer until the cabbage is tender. Tuna Fish Salad.

son was made with the good old days when a man did not have to plead business at the office to get out of doing dishes, because be could have a date at the corner! We like a joke as well as anyone else, but we, too, wish the men had been asked why they helped with the dishes. I believe a sufficient number would have revealed other reasons than keeping the peace, such reasons as “to get out in time to make the movie" or perhaps "to help the wife get finished and have a change from what she does ail day.** And the comparison with the days of the corner saloon need not be regretted, It is too obvious. Helping the wife with the dishes to get ont in time for the movie Is a wholesomer way of spending the evening than in the corner saloon, and few men haven’t sense enough to realise that. It la a gratifying picture of American home life that is presented by the Information that so many busbands “help with the dlhes." That, to me.

Sleuths of Uncle Sam War on Counterfeiters

While the secret service, charged with protection of the currency of the United States, is always alert .in the war against counterfeiters, present conditions have necessitated even greater vigilance. Two factors have led to a substantial Increase In counterfeiting. First, there was the repeal of prohibition, with a resultant seeking of other fields by bootleggers. Second, the depression has caused the reduction of the “market* for “suckers" in con-fidence-game manipulations, and therefore the necessity for the socalled “slickers” to turn to other methods of income. Acting Chief Joseph EL Murphy, of the United States secret service, says that, because of the peculiar economic conditions, counterfeiting is today on the high tide. Great success, however, has attended the efforts of the secret service against the bogus-money entrepreneurs. The recent arrest tn New York of Victor Lustig, alias “the Count,” Illustrates the thoroughness of the methods used. Secret service records show that in April, 1927, the Count, who has a long police record in this and European countries, escaped from the Crown Point, Ind., jail He turned to counterfeiting when be found other operations lacking In profits. In December, 1933 Investigation revealed that Lustig was interested in the output of counterfeit notes, some of which were found in the home of a Chicago printer named Darla The search for the count extended into several states, and ended in his arrest in New York city, where he was picked up.

New Window Glass Bars Heat Rays From Room Window glass has been developed which takes the heat but of sunlight but permits the light to pass. The heat-absorbing glass contains iron, and objects viewed through it have a greenish-blue color because some of the red rays of sunlight have been removed. Small amounts of Iron in glass absorb ultra-violet and infra-red, the heat rays of sunlight. The visible part of sunlight contains only one-third of the heat in the sun’s rays and the new glass cuts out the invisible rays but permits most of the visible rays to pass. While the heated glass might be expected to raise the temperature of a room as a whole, the effect on a person in the direct sunlight is much less than for ordinary glass. The glass is particularly suited to offices and factories.—Popular Mechanics Magazine.

The rest of the population of 17,500,000 belong either to no religious community or their religion could not be established. The Way of a .Male One time over in Missouri we witnessed this Incident: A mule refused to cross a mud hole. Five men pulled and the mule didn’t move. Then the five men shoved and the mule didn’t move. Then an automobile was used, but .the rope broke and the mule hadn’t moved. Finally a little, sickly man Came along, blindfolded the mule, and led the mule across the mud bole. It was a triumph of brain over brawn.—Atchison Globe.
