THORNTON BURGESS. Who never has a new idea Will not gain much from life I fear. —O0ld Man Coyote. Over at his home in the Old Pasture Old Man Coyote had gnawed & splen- did big bone until it was polished. There wasn't a scrap of anything left on it. Then with his strong teeth he cracked that bone and feasted on the sweet marrow that was inside. When there wasn't so much the smell of this left he gave a little sigh of satis- faction and contentment and stretched out for a rest in the sunshine. He licked his lips and grinned. Then ONE BY ONE THE HENS CAME OUT INTO THE HENYARD. he licked his lips end once more grinned. He was thinking of Bowser the Hound and how he had fooled Bowser over in the Green Forest and by so doing had made a chance to get that splendld big bone. “I suppose” thought he, has bones like this often. My, but he is lucky. He certainly is lucky. I wonder how it would seem to never have to wonder where the next meal is coming fro Tll have to visit Farmer Brown's again soon. I wish there was a place over there for a fellow to hide.” Just then he remembered the stack of straw in Farmer Brown's barn- yard from behind which he had watched Mrs. Brown give Bowser that “Bowser \ bone, and in a flash a great idea came to him. He grinned so much that it was a wonder he dida't laugh right out. The next morning, just as the Black Shadows were disappearing, Old Man Coyote once more was over back of Farmer Brown's barn. All was still. No one was yet moving in Farmer Brown's house. Bowser was in his own snug little house asleep. Old Man Coyote stole over to that stack of straw and there he went to work. What was he doing? He was burrow- ing under that straw. Yes, sir, he was burrowing under that stack of straw. He worked fast and it wasn't long before he had a hole under that straw, a hole hig enough for him to crawl into. Once out of sight un- der that straw he made a place big enough for him to turn around in. It was snug and warm; very, very comfortable, indeed. ©Ola Man Coyote grinned as he lay down in there, facing so that he could peep out and see all that went on in Farmer Brown's yard. “This is the most comfortable place I have found this winter,” thought he. “Jack Frost and Rough Brother North Wind may do their worst for all I care; I'll always be warm in here. Best of* all, I can watch all that goes on in Farmer Brown's yard and never be suspected. I can learn the ways of everybody about here, and if I don't i:: plenty to eat my name isn't Old n Coyote. This is Yes, sir, it is a great a great idea. faea "I ought to have thought of it long ago. Bg this time jolly, round, red Mr. Sun had begun his daily climb up in the blue, blue sky, and there were many sounds from Farmer Brown's house. Presently Farmer Brown and Farmer Brown's boy came out to milk and feed the cows and to feed the horses and the nens. Bowser the LISTEN, WORLD! BY ELSIE ROBINSON. -When will wives realize that al- though a husband needs a career he also needs a little careering, Marriage is a serlous job and beautiful and worthy career, but it's also an acquired taste, like eating olives. I mean no disrespect I'm simply stating the truth. Humans love and mate naturally—but they had to be taught to get married, just as they’'ve had to be taught to wear shirts.” And the old urges still speak. Not necessarily an urge for vice or lawbreaking, but an urge for adven- QU3BANDS (VEED A CAREER-BUT ALSO A UTTLE CAREERING. ture. That's the trouble with mat- ried life—it's too apt to cut out the adventure element. Our first_hairy grandpa’s home life didn’t cut out the adventure element. It was always a toss-up whether he would bring home the mastodon or the mastodon would bring him. This prevented life from palling. But there are no such diverting gambles now. The glory of the campfire dims in the everlasting struggle to pay the gas man. Who can afford an adventure trail if he has to go into a taxi? And without their campfire victories and their trail dangers, something within Hound came out of his little house, men goes hungry. yawning and stretching, and went over to the back goor of Farmer Brown's house and whined until it was opened for him. All this Old Man Coyote watched. Presently the pleasant odor of fi ing ham’ tickled his nose and set his mouth to watering He sniffed long- ingly, but they were noiseless sniffsa. Black Pussy the Cat came out and sat on the doorstep while she washed her face. One by one the hens came out into the henyard. How Old Man Coyote did hate the wire fence around that yard!

It's harder for the man now than it is fon the woman. The cave was always her natural, profitable habitat. It wasn't his. He took it on as a re- sponsibility.

After the acute and feverish stage of acute poliomyelitis has passed, perhaps three weeks after the onset of the illness, the plaster casts or splints or other apparatus which may have been used to procure that most salutary aid, physiological rest, Guring the early stage of the paraly- sis, may be removed every day or two for the application of electricity. The casts or splints are discarded permanently when the physician feels that there is no further likelihood of relapses, for they serve no useful purpose after the stage of fixed or permanent paralysis has arrived. If the child is to wear any appliance or brace later, either to prevent con- tracture or to enable the child to walk, that is a question for the or- thopedic physician. The best results seem to be ob- tained from a combination of elec- tric treatment and massage applied three or four times a week for not less than ome year. This electric treatment and massage can be ap- plied properly and safely only by the family physician or the orthopedic physician or nurses under their di- rection. Sometimes an intelligent mother may learn to apply such treatment -to her child ~with the nurse's help. It is a mistake, against which parents are warmed, to en- trust such treatment to any other hands. Eleotricity and massage may and often do work grave injury when unintelligently used. Miracles or spectacular effects do not happen outside the spurious healer seecking to make people see things which are not there. Aside from the rapid recovery of function in_the affected muscle groups, which often occurs spontaneously in the first stage of the disease, any im- provement under eleotricity and mas- sage is very slow, taking many months, and, as already mentioned, such _treatment must regularly and faithfully kept up for not less than one year In order to accom- plish any good. Patience and perserverance, there- fore, are the essentials for success. Unfortunate indeed is the paralyz child whose parents blow hither and yon, “trying” this and that treatment at_the behest of friends. Most cities have free clinics, some- times pay clinics, where proper treat- ment may be had at little or no cost if the parents are unable to pa: Even many small towns now have some provision, for the care of in- fantile paralysis cases under the di- rection of the health authorities. ‘Whenever possible, a warm bath im- mediately preceding the massage and electric treatment is helpful. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Head Nolses. . T have been a victim of nolses in my ears for years. One ear has a noise something like Niagara Falls, and the other sounds like a boiler fac- tory tuning up. You can scarcely imagine. 2 a. 8) Answer—The cause of a head noise is often not in the ear, but some- thing systematic. Tobacoo poison- ing, anemia from various causes, the use of drugs, quinine, antipyria and acetanilde in pain killers and alleged 1 h grippe or cold cures and headache remedies, high blood pressure from various disease conditions, some- times a heart lesion. I had a real noise for several years—in my case it something like a ford trying to pass a motor cycle in the quiet zone near a ho: Should your noise inarease enough to be annoying there would be no harm in having your doctor and, if he deems it ad- visable, an ear specialist, look you over. COFFEE IEALCOFEEE C Swing Stilts. Bwirg Stitts o gom Materials Needed—Two poles, some rope, two staples, two pleces of broomstick. The old-style stiits are & back num- ber when compared to these. Although swing stilts are harder to use, they are better for exercise, giving play to most of the muscles of the body. The sketch here shows how they are made, but be sure and use a strong rope or small, tough chain, and fasten the foot rests (piece of broomstick) good and tight. To attach rope to poles, use clinching staples or eyebolts. LE ROY CRIGLER. (Copyright, 1921.) Lemon Sponge Pie.

The glassed doors of the living room were shut, the two men were strolling up and down smoking cigar- ettes, Merriam looking very lovely in an orchid neglige, cuddled in the ;:Ic:;‘cth cushions under a rose-colored They were discussing Susan Sue. Susan Sue herself, plump, stern and fitty-eight, was in the kitchen, g homemade “bread.

But he swung it shut after him in Shelly's d Merriam' curious faces. They waited expec- tantly while he conferred with the redoubtable Susan Sue. He came back rather cockily. He pulled out the tip table and the cards for their usual game of dummy bridge. “Sure I did,” he answered their chorused question. “She was as re- sectful as anything.

Modern Lamps Are Designed for Different Uses—@ive Care to Their Selection. ‘The modern lamp has developed be- yond the stage when any one was con- sidered a good selection for any us pretty lamp” was wanted, an choosing it consisted In taking the one which best fitted into the color scheme of the room for which it was intended. No longer may this method be em- ployved. The first question asked the purchaser is, “For what use is the lamp intended?” Reading or decora- tion, bedroom or living room? For you must know that there is much difference In those designed for the intimate boudoir and those intended for the general living parts of the house. Just as certain materials seem meant for informal use and some for formal use, 8o are the modern lampi and their -shades. Take, for instance, the doll shown In today’s sketch. Her skirts of pink taffeta soften the light of the electric bulb concealed beneath them and thus is it made to take its place under the heading of decorative lights. No reading may be donse in the soft glow it diffuses, but surely it adds to the charm of its surroundings. Useless? ot a bit. That which is beautiful has a definite mission in home decorations, and this piquant miss with her old-time hoopskirts not only fits In, but adds to the atmosphere of the boudoir. Her dainty dress, however, is not suitable to the living room. Or if it seems suitable to yours you may be- gin to suspect that something is wrong with the living room. For pink Al il taffeta has sm reason ever to b used in a room which has as mue¢l general use.
