And to these women brown is almost always becoming. . The French finds black more becoming, and the aristrocratic English woman can wear the grays and belge tones better because she Is usually fafrer.

Of course, Mother Bear's quick ears instantly caught the sound of those stling leaves and she turned to look sharply in that direction. The three little Bears heard that rustling, too. d of course they looked. They saw & large, plump bird apparently help- less and badly hurt. Instantly the three little Bears started for her. But Mother Bear didn’t. Mother Bear sat up and there was a twinkle in her shrewd little eyes as she watched the three little Bears racing to see which would get to that fluttering bird first Such excited little Bears as they wers! My, my, my, such excited 1it- tle Bears as they were! Mrs. Grouse flopped and fluttered along the ground and acted for all the world as if one wing was broken. First one and then another of the little Bears would jump for her, and each time she barely fluttered out of reach. Mother Bear rocked from side to side as she watched, and it seemed to Peter Rabbit that she was grin- ning. Certainly, she was very much interested. but e made no move to g0 _help the little Bears catch Mrs, INSTANTLY THE THREE’ LITTLE BEARS STARTED FOR HER. Once Littlest Bear actually touched the tail feathers of Mra. Grouse. “I've got her'” she squealed. But _she hadn't got her. Somehow Mrs. Grouse managed to flop along thout losing even one of those tail feathers. The three little Bears got in each other's way. They ran and jumped and did their best to pounce upon poor Mrs. Grouse, and time and again it looked as if they must suc- ceed. But always Mrs. Grouse flut- tered away. All the time Mrs. Grouse and the | three little Bears were going away | from the place where the twelve baby Grouse were hiding. Presently they were out of sight, though Peter could still hear the excited little Brars as | they tried to catch Mrs. Grouse. After | a while Peter heard the distant roar | of “stout wings, and a ccuple of minutes later he caught a glimpse of Mrs. Grouse as she alighted in a tree on a hill above him. She had | simply been fooling those iittle Bears | and leading them away from where her babies were. | (Copyright. 1923, by T. W. Burgess.)

It's the duty of the child to honor—if the parent be wor- thy of honor; to obey—If the com- | mand be fair. The day of the domes- tic despot has passed. Lincoln freed the slaves, and the advance of civil- ization has freed the children. With- out a doubt that freedom is resulting in some strange and disturbing Jaw lessness. But what does that law- lessness indicate? Simply this—that all too many parents cannot control their children save by force. The exemplary behavior of the “old- fashioned child” was not a loving tribute to the wisdom and affection | of the parent—it was the obedience of the underdog. Deprived of the lasn of domestic tyranny, such par lose their authority.

The fresh fruit juice (tomato juice {is quite as good; the juice of toma- toes canned in a factory by the vac- uum process is as good as that of fresh tomato) furnishes vitamins which seem to be essential for nor- maledigestion, normal bowel function, normal growth and development of the infant.

If mothers are compelled to give their bables substitutes for breast feeding or for pure fresh cow's or goat's milk, the use of a few spoon- fuls of some such fruit-juice as part of the daily diet will be found to serve one good purpose which is ob- vious to mearl every mother, the prevention of constipation.
