BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN By THORNTON W. BURGESS

DANNY IS GLAD HIS TAIL IS SHORT MANY, many times, Danny Meadow Mouse had envied his cousins, Whitefoot the Woo-lmouse. Nimble Heels the Jumping Meuse, and Nibbier the House Mouse, because of their long tails. It used to seetn to him that Old Mother Nature had been very unfair in giving him such a homely, short, stubby tall If there was any one thing he would have had if he could, it would have been. a lo,ng tail. The truth . is, Danny used to be ashamed of that short tail But he Isn’t any more. No, sir,* Danny Meadow Mouse wouldn’t have that tall of his any different now if he could. He has learned one of life’s great lessons, which Is that those things which sometimes seem the least to be desired are the greatest blessings. Be learned it that night when he played hide and seek with Buster Bear, deep in the Green Forest Buster Bear Is a very clever fellow. There are few who use their wits as Buster uses his. It didn’t take him long to realise that never In the world would he be able to catcb Danny Meadow Mouse by simply chasing him round and round the trunk of that tree. As soon as he did ’realise it he stopped and sat up to think. Now, while that tree was big. it wasn t so big that Buster couldn’t reach quite half way round It, for Buster has a long reach. An Idea came to him and his little eyes snapped and he grinned wickedly. “I’ll give that Mouse a surprise.- thought be. So Buster stole softly close up to the tree on the other side of which poor little Danny Meadow Mouse crouched, wondering whit would happen . next Very softly and carefully Buster reached around the tree with one big paw and brought it down swiftly. It came down right on the very tip end of Danny’s little short talk Had that tall been an inch longer, Danny would have been caught. As it was. Buster’s big paw came down on the tip end only, and when Danny jumped, as of-course be did. his tail

slipped right out from under. With a pitiful little squeak of fear Danny darted over to another tree and whisked around behind that. Even then, in the midst of his fright, he was thankful to Old Mother Nature for having given him that short talk Its shortness was all that had saved his life and be knew it, “Never, never again," thought Danny, “will I envy anyone a long tail. Cousin Whitefoot’s tall may be handsomer than mine, but if Cousin Whitefoot had been in my place he would be right in Buster Bear's stomach this very minute, and it would have been all because of his long tail." Then Danny began to look about him hurriedly in the hope of finding a hiding place, for Buster Hear had seen where Danny had gone and was coming to try that same trick over again. © I. W.

Question box b ED WYNN, The Perfect Fool

Dear Mr. Wynn: I am a boy twelve years old, and am in the ninth grade in school. In my English lesson for next week I must write an essay tn which I have to use three words, meaning the direct opposite to the following three words: “Misery,* “Sorrow," and “Woe.* I know the opposite to “misery" is “happiness," and I know the opposite to “sorrow" is “Joy." but the other word sticks me. Will you please tell me the opposite to “woe"? DICK SHONARY. Answer: I am surprised, a boy of your age, doesn’t know that the opposite to “woe* is “gid-dap." Dear Mr. Wynn: Would you be kind enough to tell me the best way to remove paint ? Yours truly, 1 STAINEASY. Answer: Sit on it. Dear Mr. Wynn: Will you kindly settle a dispute for os? In our town there is a strike on the trolley car line and the cars are being run by Incompetent men, with the result there have been several accidents. What we want to know is this: “In case of an accident, what is the first duty of the conductor and the motorman?* Truly yours. VIOLET RAYS. Answer: In ease of an accident the first duty of the conductor and the motorman is to blame it on each other. Dear Mr. Wynn: After a wedding ceremony the minister generally says:. “I now pro nounce you ’one.’" My mother always says that she and papa are “ten," How does she make that out? Truly yours. SUE PERFLUOUS. Answer: Your mother probably figures that she la “one* and your father it “nothing." Dear Mr. Wynn: I am a boy nine years old and my father treats me very roughly. He always calls me a little pig and then asks me If I know what a little pig is.

MofegOßook I I PICNIC MEALS OPEN-AIR meals are in order now until the snow flies. These picnic meals may be of the simplest, but be sure that there is plenty of whatever it is. for there is nothing that encourages appetite like a good long walk or ride in the fresh air. The perfect picnic always supposes a fire, where things can be heated or cooked, and there are few Scouts or Campfire girls who cannot prepare one in a short time. The building of a fireplace to roast the potatoes or corn and boil the water for the frankfurters is an accomplishment that most of the youth of today take as a matter of course. If the fire is to be made on the beach, a trench is dug to make a fire-box. Then the true sportsman will see that every bit of debris and all embers are burned and burled before leaving the campfire. One may cook bacon on sticks,

Os course I cry and don’t answer him. but I wish I could give him an answer that would stop him from calling me a little pig. What can I say? Yours truly. G. TZAWFUL. Answer: The next time he calls you a little pig and asks you if you know what a little pig is you say: “Yes, papa, a little pig is a hog’s son." © AMoel.ted New.pap«ra. WNU Service.

and her friend had never met her busband; so quite ingeniously she conceived the idee, not of selling him. but of renting him temporarily, so to speak. She arranged a satisfactory meeting between the two, and divorced her husband to enable him to marry the other woman. The marriage went off smoothly and the money was paid. The only hitch in the plan came a few weeks later when the wife prepared to remarry her husband—and be would not go home! And the courts upheld him. The moral—cheating cheaters? Oh. no.

Important Foods That Are of Western Origin

Talking about what the people eat and where it came from, the Charleston News and Courier says that much of the world’s menu Is American. Quoting from the acting curator of botany, for the Field Museum of Natural History, B. E. Dahlgren, the newspaper tells that while many of the standard food stuffs were discovered on the western hemisphere they are now raised and used everywhere on earth. For instance, it is remarked that the Irish potato originated in South America, and was introduced tn Europe more than 100 years after the discovery of America. Doctor Dahlgren says that “the tomato, known as the ‘Peruvian apple’ as far back as the -Sixteenth century, a native plant of South America, was first introduced into Europe as an ornamental plant and only in recent years has been grown in many parts of the world as an important food. Corn, kidney and lima beans, pumpkins, squash, cranberries and peanuts were all originally American, but are today cultivated the *world over. Plants of medicinal and narcotic value which are included among the New world

SPOILED BY NURSEMAIDS Manj men and women are prevented from marrying and raising a family because as children they were “poor" little rich boys and girls cared for by nursemaids and governesses. The women entrusted by wealthy people with the care of their little children are so often ignorant of child care and emotionally uncontrolled. that their little charges develop a fear-anxiety neurosis which makes them unfit for the responsibilities of adult life. Dr. A. E. Hamilton of New York reports In Eugenical News. “In my own experience as a consulting educator, I have a distinct classification for ‘Nursemaid Children.’ " Doctor Hamilton says. “They are children who show all the symptoms of growing up into the kind of men and women who often lack courage to make so important a decision as that involved in marriage and founding a family.”—Kansas City Star.

Concord and Catawba grapes are development of the wild fox grape found in the New world by early Colonial settlers. “And another essentially American fruit is the pineapple, which Is popularly associated with the Hawaiian islands, but originated in northern South America, notably Brazil.” The News and Courier declares that these and many other fruits, first contributed to the tables of the world by America, are now successfully grown in many parts of the world and their American origin is forgotten. And it is to wonder how the people of Europe got along without some of the things which they adopted after Columbus had made his trip to the other side of the globe. But America had need of things that were not originally growing here. It is shown by the article from the Charleston newspaper that this continent had to import coffee —and later found it admirably adapted to the climate and conditions existing in South and Central Americas.
