I wonder if Bobby really is in there asleep. 1If I could know that I would be satisfied.” Just then Peter spied an old friend. |1t was Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel. | He was digging down through the snow for a fat nut he had buried in the fall He hadn't seen Peter, for Peter had ! been sitting very still. 'Peter opened his mouth to speak to Happy Jack, but closed it again without saying a word. An idea had popped into Peter's head. If he couldn’t climb Happy Jack could. {1t would be no trick at all for Happy Jack to run up that tree to Bobby | Coon's doorway. He would try to get | Happy Jack to find out if Bobby Coon | was asleep .in that hollow tree. It | wouldn’t do to ask Happy Jack to do it. { It would be just like Happy Jack to teli him that it was none of his busineSs. He must think of some other way. Presently Happy: Jack Squirrel found | the nut he was digging for and sat up {to eat it. - It was then that he saw Pe- ter. Peter was sitting at the foot of “WHAT ARE YOU STARING AT, PETER?" HE DEMANDED. Bobby Coon’s hollow tree with his head tipped back staring up at Bobby's door- way. Happy Jack grew curious. While he ate the nut he stared up at Bobby Coon’s doorway. He couldn’t see any- thing unusual about it. It looked just as it always had. When he had finished ‘!he nut he scampered over to Pet “What are you staring at, Peter”” he | demanded. “Bobby Coon's doorway,” ter. Happy Jack sdt down beside Peter replied Pe- | and stared, too. ““Well, what's the mat- ter with that doorway?" he asked finally. “Nothing,” replied Peter. *Nothing. I was just thinking how sad it would be never to see Bobby Coon poke his head j out of that doorway again.” Peter spoke mournfully. Happy Jack looked startled. *“Who says Bobby Coon will never poke his head out of that doorway again?" demanded. ““Nobody’ says 80, replied Peter. Tow do we know he is even inside there? How [ do we know where he is or what may have happened to him? 1, for one, cer- tainly would miss Bobby Coon.” “But what makes you think anything has happened to Bobby Coon?" persisted Happy Jack, staring up at. that doorway barder tham’ ever. “I didn’t say I do think so,” replied Peter, still in 2 mournful-sounding voice. “I was simply thinking how sad it would be if anything had. You don’t suppose anything has, do you”" *“No, I don’t,’” retorted Happy Jack. “But it is easy enough to find out whether or not be is in there. I could find out in two minutes. I: wouldn't take me that long to cHmb up there.” T wish 1 knew.” sighed “All right, I'll find out,” nkl Happy Jack -and started up the tres ‘Peter turned his head to hide smile.

BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE. Two things in the Paris fashions comment than they have deserved have been the long tight sleeves and the ‘high collars. That is, the com- ment “has been too strong if it has led you to believe that Paris has given up the lowered neckline or that: she has abandoned the short | sleeve. For she hasn’t. Nor is she at all in- clined to give up the short skirt im- mediately. There is a féeling in the smart, or is going to be, and that the long sleeve is distinctive, and that the high collar is good style, but observ- ant ones just returned who have taken the trouble to count the number of high-collared _ afternoon frocks as compared with low-necked ones, long sleev against abbreviated ones, long rts as against the shorter sort, must give the impression that French women are loth to adopt anything that will change the essentials of their clothes very materially. In other words, if you want to have your returned traveler from Paris as-{ sure you that an enormous change has taken place, you are going to bel| greatly disappointed. Pleasans Relief. In the meantime, high-necked and long-sleeved models are here as a pleasant relief. Suits and many day frocks will show the long clinging, sleeve, and the collar high at least in| the back, bids fair to find favor in suits. But these things are merely presented to us. The American wom- an may take what she chooses or she may_ take none of these things and g0 her own sweet way, finding ex- pression of her clothes sentiments in American designs. that she is well dressed and smartly dressed than by slavishly following a few edicts of fashion laid down anew every three or four months. As far as the high neck and the long sleeve go, the American woman seems to have taken to the long sleeve | more kindly than she has to the high | collar. In fact. some of the models turned out of French workrooms pro- vided’with high collars have been re- designed here in collarless form. This a|l3 especially true of the separate blouse.

The adventages of dry cleaning are that it leaves the original finish of | the material unchanged and does not shrink nor fade it. As the material often need not be pre: after dry cleaning, gathered and shirred gar- ments cannot be cleaned in this way Dry cleaning is accomplished either by cleansing powder, which. absorbs dust and grease. or by liquids, which dissolve them. The powders are mag- nesia, borax and French chalkj the liquids are gasoline, benzine, naptha and chloroform. Sometimes it is wise to try the dry powder, ani after hav- ing brushed it out thoroughly, use OKkBIIA OROPESA ORDUNA 1st, an lnd 3rd 26 Broadway i one of the liquids. The liguids are, ! of course, the more effective agents, | but they are highly inflammable, 80 that great care must be taken in their use, and they have very strofg odors, which it takes time and care to get rid of. They must not be used near any flame, and the cleansed garments must be thoroughly aired. French chalk and the other pow- ders are very good to clean feathers, laces and other fine things only slightly soiled. Rub the powder care- fully fnto the solled article, Toll it in a clean cloth, and leave it for several days. Shake out the powder, and you will be surprised at the result. But stains cannot be removed in this way. Slightly soiled kid gloves can be cleaned by rubbing powder on them, while on the hands, but badly soiled ones should be soaked in gasoline, washed and rinsed in more fresh gas- oline placed on a clean cloth and rub- bed in French chalk, then well dried and aired. The chalk not only helps to keep the kid white, but gives a gloss and softness to its 'surface. White kid slippers should be cleaned in the same way. In using the liquids, begin outside the spot and rub gently in a.circle toward its center, to avoid forming a ring. Use a soft, clean cloth, wriung out of the liquid, not dipped ifito it.
