And so, be- fore night of the day after the great lce storm, the news of the bounty of Farmer Brown’s Boy had spread far in all directions. The result was a steady procession of visitors to the feeding shelves in the Old Orchard in the cor- per nearest Farmer Brown's house. All day long they came, for no- where else was food to be found. You see, every bit was locked In ice, and many little lives would have been ended but for the food Farmer “DEE, DEE, HERE! S HO" CRIED TOMMY TIT E) Erown's Boy had so thoughtfully put out. There was no fear.on the part of any of these litfle people. They understood that one. who wouid put out food for them would do them no {11, so they ate contentedly, even when Farmer Brown's Boy stood but a few feet away. Such fear as those who were not acquainted with him might have was swallowed up in the greater fear of starving and freezing to death. Tommy Tit the Chickadee and Yank Yank the Nuthatch, being old friends, did not hesitate to_take food from the hand of Farmer Brown’s Boy, and this did much to prove to those who were not acquainted with him that he was to be trusted as their best friend. Happy Jack Saquirrel and Chatterer the Red Squirrel ajso took food from his hands, but they also were old friends. It was Rusty the Fox Squirrel who hesitated. But after watching Happy Jack and Chat- terer for a while he also ventured to reach out for a nut offered him by Farmer Brown's Boy. And with the acceptance of that first nut all su picion of Farmer Brown's Boy van- ished. And then a funny thing happened. Those three Squirrel cousins actually became jealous of one another. They did for a fact. They would try drive one another away. And Chat- terer, the smallest of the three, was the one who usually succeeded.

It seems difficult or impossible for ekin to grow uphill, so a wound or burn in which proud flesh.develops is slow to heal until the scaffolding is cut back to the proper level—which cutting is best done with scissors or ingrumen: . in the doctoT hands, since granulation tissue ha: no nerves and is. therefore, insensi- tive.
