Good food al a pretty table in a pretty room may fall because those who take it are angry or unhappy. The family is hardiy ever all to- gether, in our strenuous lives, except at table. Thus the social lifé of the family, as a whole, centers round the table. ' Test your home atmosphere by the average daily table atmos- phere, the spirit and substance of your averago dafly table talk, and You are lucky If you do not get an unpleasant shock. Table talk should not be Rossip. Envy, malice and all uncharitable- ness are not only bad for the soul— they are very bad for the digestion Table manners must, of course, be taught, but not by constant fault- finding at the table. Rather, tact- fully, by example, and by a' quiet warning before a meal or after it, a wise mother comments on them to a child alone, so that he is not made self-conscious and more awkward than ever. Above all, silence is rarely golden at the table. People need cheerful diverting talk at their meals. Save your fun, your cheerfulness, your in- terest in living for the give and take of talk at the table. It will do you and your digestion as much good as it does the children. (Coprright, 1921.) [T TLE STORIES rBEDTIME BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. Happy Jack Changes His Mind. If perchance I change my mind 1t is no sign I'm fickle. To_promptly clange when he s wrong No one should ever stickle. —Happy Jack Squirrel. Peter Rabbit turned his head to hide a grin as Happy Jack the Gray Squir- rel started to climb the big hollow tree in which Bobby Coon had made his home for a long time. Peter didn't T L e want Happy Jack to see that grin. You sce, Peter was making use of Happy Jack to find out something he couldn’t find out for himself, but he knew that if Happy Jack suspected anything of the kind he would re- tuse to go on. Peter wanted to know if Bobby Coon was still asleep in that hollow tree. It was just curiosity, plain curi- osity. It really was no business of Poier's whether Bobby Coon was in there alsesp or not. But he wanied to know and he couldn’t climb that tree to find out, 8o he had artfully suggest. ed to Happy Jack, without really say ing so, that there was some doubt if Bobby Coon would ever again poke his head out of that doorway kLigh up in the tree. He even suggested that Bobby Coon might not be in that house at all. Happy Jack had declared that he would go up and see. So it was that as Happy Jack climb- ed the tree Peter Rabbitt grinned and thought himself very smart. As you know Happy Jack Squirrel is a splen- did climber and in almost no time at all he was half way up that tree. Then he atopped and began to jerk his big, broad tall, a way he has when he is excited or ncrvous or thinking. Peter waited for him to go on. But Happy Jack didn't go on. That is, he didn’t go on up to that hole which was the entrance to Bobby Coon's house. He went partly around the trunk of the tree and up to a branch. On this he seated himself with his back to the trunk. ‘What's tre Peter Rabbit. “Nothing is the matter,” Happy Jack. “Then Why don’t you go on and find out if Bobby Coon is in there?”’ cried Peter Rabbit. “Because I've changed my mind," re- plied Happy Jack. “What for?’ demanded Peter. “Because It's none of my business, and none of your business. whether or not Bobby Coon is in there asleep, retorted Happy Jack. ou mean you've got cold feet! jeered Peter. “What do you mean by cold feot?" demanded Happy Jack sharply. “I mean you are afraid to go in there. You're afraid, that's what you are!” re- torted Peter Rabbit. o such thing! I'm not afrald!” re- torted Happy Jack angrily. “Yes, you are; you're afraid!” peated Peter. “If you were not afrald you would go right in there and find out if Bobby Coon is there. “1 don’t doubt that vou would if you were in my place, but some people haven't any xcnse of honor,” retorted Happy Jack. “That is Bobby Coon' house and no one else has a right to go in it. I know I wouldn’t like it if came poking about in my house while I was aslecp.
