Woman's lifc has been preserved, not because she was considered bet- ter than man, but because she was the mother—the guarantes of the generation to come. The death of a woman meant more than the death of an individual—it meant the death of a tree of life. So the woman went free, until at last her freedom has become & menace.

O, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1925, BY WILLIAM BRADY, M. D., Noted Physician and Author. Mustard. Mustard in the medicine cupboard serves three purposes. A tablespoon- ful of mustard flour given in a glass half full of lukewarm water is a fair- ly dependable emetic if nothing bet- ter is at hand in an emergency. But the mustard paste often administered on “bot dog” and other delicacies is wealker, It bites and burns the stom- ach and excites a sufiiclently artificial appetite; then it is worked by the suf- fering stomach, much as one would keep ‘2 hot potato moving in one's hands, and the mustard is finally has- tened on into the Intestine, which is even less capable of enduring insult. Yet mustard is fed to children in school cafeterias controlled by diet tlans and like experts. The fo served there is often “poor pitking. if indeed any Is left after the teachers | have been fed, but the children are welcome to all the mustard they can eat; they can eat much when there is | nothing” good to fill the vold. To serve mustard with food s a very frank confession or admission that the food is inferior or badly cooked Mustard should be applied to the cheést, not to the stomach. 1t stays the chest better. Yet it shoulda't kept on the chest a minute long than s necessary for it to do i When we apply mustard to a pa chest we do not mean to punish him for being sick. but merely to distract | his mind from the symptoms.

They did. Old Man Coyote left his home in’'the Old Pasture and started out just as soon as he was sure that the storm really was over. He started very shortly after Peter and Mra Poter had started for home in the dear OM Briar Patoh. It was their Pra And t L B RABBITS ARE _ MINE!"

Finally he turned toward that part where Pater and Mrs. Peter had been, And so0 it was that he came upon their tracks in the newly fallen snow. Old Man Coyote's eyes brightened at the sight of those tracke. He guessed right away whose tracks they were. He knew that the only Rabbit living in the Old Pasture was Old Jed Thumper.

They can't be very far ahead of me, because these tracks were made since the storm.” He began to run swiftly. He didn't have to depend upon his nose, for those tracks were plain for all to see. Occasionaily ho did put his nose down to them just to get that fresh Rabbit scent. Each time it made him hun- grier. And each time he ran a little faster: -~ Down along the cowpaths the tracks led him to the edge of the Old Pasture. He suspected then that Peter and Mrs, Peter had started for -the dear Old Briar Patch, and he knew that he would have to run his fastest to catoh them before they could get there.

In the soft snow Old Man Coyote made no sound. Reddy was 80 In- tent on locking ahead that he dlén't once think of looking behind. So it was that he knew nothing of Old Man Coyote until an ugly snarl right at his heels made him jump. “Those Rabbits are mine 0ld Man Coyote, “It is no such thing! They are mine!
