An angry mother few face; Avoiding ber is no disgrace. —YOWLER THE BOB CAT. I Littlest Bear was so shocked by the | discovery that Yowler the Bob Cat could climb a tree as well as she could that for a second or two she just clung to her branch and stared down with unbelieving eyes. Ther she realized that she was no longer safe. With a cry of fright she turned and scrambled up, erying all the way. Up and up she went until she was in the very top of that tree. Up and up and up and up came Yowler the Bob Cat. Yowler was nervous. He kept stopping every few feet to listen and to look anxiously for signs of Mother Bear. He felt sure that little Bear was lost, but there was no knowing how near Mocher Bear might be, and if she | should hear that little Bear's cries she would come in a hurry. How Yowler did wish that little Bear would stop erying! Now, Littlest Bear was so small that she could climb up where the top of that tree was very slender and small. There she hung on with the claws of all four feet, and cried as only a frightened little Bear can cry. Yowler didn't dare climb quite high enough to reach her. He was too biz. He stopped just a little be- low her, and tried to think of some | way of making her let go. Suddenly there W “Woof, woof” just sound of great claws digging Into the trunk of that tree, One glance down was enough for Yowler. There was Mother * Be. coming up that tree at a rate that was astonishing {in one 5o big! One look was enough. Yowler started down, and he went down twice as fast as he had come up. He ran out on the first big branch he came to. Just as Mother B reached that branch Yowler made a flying leap and caught a branch of the next tree. There he hung for a_moment, vainly trying to pull himself up on it Then he slipped and dropped. Fortunately for him there was a big branch just be- {low him, and this one he succeeded in holding onto. He pulled himself {up on it, and then with a screech of rage and disappointment he climb- ed down from that tree and dis | | appeared the instant he reached the ground.

While not so attractive|brushes with a buttonhook, coarse to look at, the cleaning closet is just | comb or old scissors. The mechanism as Important. By grouping together | should be kept properly ofled in order brooms, brushes, dusters, mops, and all the many things needed In clean- ing. and keeping the closet in order, the housekeeper need not waste time or take extra steps in collecting these things when she wants them. It is a more sanitary and tidy practice tostore cleaning tools in a place by them- selves than to leave them in a corner of the kitchen or pantry as is so often done. The cleaning closet should be con- venient to the whole house. Some- times especially in large houses, a good arrangement is to have a clean- ing closet on each floor with a supply of things most frequently used. If a built-in_closet 18 not available, an old wardrobe may be fitted up. Some- times the cleaning closet opens off the back hall or the combination| laundry and washroom, which s found an almost indispensable room in most homes. This, also, is a good place fpr it Should Be Ventilated. The cleaning closet should be venti- lated by cutting holes in the door or by means of a transom. Shelves should be arranged for the cans and bottles of cleaning materials and other small articles, and there should be pienty of hooks of proper heights for brushes, brooms and mops. These should be hung so that the welght does not rest on the straws, bristles or strings. The carpet sweeper, also, should be set or hung so that the weight does not come on the brushes. Well made, durable tools are gen- erally most economical in the end, though they may cost more at the outset. Keep Cloths In C: The oily cloths used in floors and furniture, especially it moistened with linseed oil. are a serious fire hazard unless kept In a covered, fireproof container. A tin o7 galvanized iron can with close-fitting 117 is good for this purnose. Tools last longer and work better if put back in the closet clean and r for use the next time. ce a week or oftener if neces- er. A vacuum cleaner should be look- ed after in much the same way, ex- cept that in addition the bag should be emptied. Shake Mops Oft Dry or ofled mops should be well shaken each time after use, and occa- sionally should be washed in hot soapsuds, rinsed in clean hot water and dried as quickly as possible. Oiled mops may be renewed by pour- ing on a few drops of kerosene or floor oil and letting them stand until the ofl spreads through the strings. If too much ofl is used the floor will be darkened and a surplus of oll will be left on the surface Dust cloths should be washed fre- quently, because a little dirt com: out more easily and bgcause dirty cloths often leave as much dust as they take up and may scratch highly polished surfaces. The oil in “dus less” cloths may be restored by add- }ing to the rinse water a little kero- sene of floor oil (about one table- spoonful to a quart of water) or by pouring a_few drops or oil on the ary duster, rolling it tight and letting it stand until the oll spreads evenly.
