Who of bad matters makes th Will win, whatever be the fest. —Reddy Fox. best Planning a new home and getting a new home were auite different mat- ters, as Reddy Fox and Mrs. Reddy soon found out. Had it been Spring or Sumuner, getting that new home would have been merely a matter of doing a little work. They would have decided where they wanted that new home and then would have dug it. But now the gvound was frozen. There could be no digging. They made sure that their old home had been rulned. They poked their heads In at the front door and at the back door. The smell of smoke was still strong. There was no doubt that that home was ruined so far &s they were concerned. In the first #IT MIGHT BE WORSE,” SAID SHE; “WE CAN MAKE IT DO.” place there was that smell of smoke. But worse still was the knowledge that all those hunters knew where that home was, It wouldn't be safe to live there. t's no use,” sald Mrs. Reddy sadly. *We may as well give up all thought of using this old home any more. 1 wouldn't feel safe a minute in it. No, &ir, 1 wouldn't feel safe a minute. I don't know what we'll do, for we + can't dig a new home with the ground frozen this way. 1 suppose we'll have to use an old house.” “I suppose we will” sald Reddy meekly. “I suppose we can use the old one we had two years ago over on the edge of the Green Forest.” “We'll go look at it,” declared Mrs. ; Reddy. So together they started off. When they reached the old home they found the doorway partly filled in with | sand and leaves. The sand wasn't frozen. Mrs. Reddy set to work with her black paws. She soon had the leaves and the sand out. She went on down in. Presently she poked her head out. “It might be worse,” said she. “We can make it do. The back door has got to be opened up. The back hall is full of rubbish. We've got to get that out. I wouldn’t for a minute con- slder living in a house without a back door. 1If it hadn’t been for the back door in our ruined home over there in the Old Pasture neither of us would be alive now. Any Fox who gets caught in a place with only one way out doesn’t deserve to escape. Now get busy, Reddy Fox, and clear out that back hall” Reddy was so meek and humble ! that he was ready to do anything. He didn’t even grumble as he went to work. It really wasn't very much of & Job after all. It didn’t take A | them a great while to get N’S PAGE. proof, and Is not harmed by exposure to rain and snow. The sketch shows & green leather motor coat lined with plald, and a hat to match, shaped like an inverted bowl and held in place with a little chin strap. With this are worn blg gauntlet gloves| of green leather. Some of the Euro- | pean motoring helmets are provided with goggles, which can be pushed up and back when not in use, but gog- gles are used very little here. Some- times the leather coat Is provided with a fur collar, a splendid English coat of brown leather, showing a collar of Australian wallaby, while the coat is lined with a warm silk- and-wool mixture. Many women prefer the jacquette- length coat for actual driving, and, of course, always the sleeves of the coat must be cut so as to give per- fectly free arm motion. Moreover, the motor coat must be designed so that it will remain securely closed at the front, thus making the wrap- around type of garment rather im- practicable for this purpose. If the sleeves themselves are not fitted fairly snugly at the wrists then there | must be little inside sleeves that fasten snugly at that point. Gaunt- let gloves seem generally to be pre- ferred to any other type. (Copyright, Menu for a Day. BREAKFAST.

BURGESS the old house fixed up well enough for them to live in. Then they sat down to talk things over. “No more chickens for us” said Mrs. Reddy decidedly. “We've got to keep away from all henhouses for | L long time. We can't afford to be hunted agaln the way we were hunt- ed yesterday. It is a wonder that both of us are here now. Another hunt like that and we would have to leave this part of the country al- together. As it is, we've got to make the best of a bad matter. Now, prom- ise me, Reddy, that you will keep away from the chickens.” “I promise,” replied Reddy. “I've learned my lesson. T'll starve before I'll go near a henhouse again.” Mrs. Reddy looked at him long and sharply. Then, satisfied that he really | meant what he sald, she gave a little sigh of relief. Seymore Pudding.

In the early morning the planctary aspects are adverse, tending to er- rors, misunderstandings or decep- tion. Therec may also be experlenced delay or disappointment. The vibrations during the afternoon are not so intense, neither are they so adverse. They do not favor, however, the undertaking of any important matters, and they very decidedly counsel the abandonment of any risky ventures. The evening condi- tions are benign and indicate a rest- ful frame of mind, which will pro- duce an atmosphers of contentment and tranquillity; a very propitious occasion for soclal or family diver- sions. A child born today will, while en- joying latent strength and vigor, dis- play apparent signs of weakness, and will be more than ordinarily subject to the ailments of infancy. Physical normaley can be attained, however, by careful nutrition and healthy en- vironment. It will have an indom- itable spirit and refuse, at any time, to acknowledge defeat. It will be intellectual, far-sighted, resourceful, and possess good executive ability. It will be affectionate, loyal to its home and family and fond of society. Tt will have many friends, and will be dependable, staunch and true to them If today is your birthday you are quiet and unobtrusive, and accom- plish a great deal without making a noise about it. You are winsome, bright and lovable, fond of amuse- ment if it does not interfere with anything important, and very fond of travel. You learn rapidly, have a very retentive memory and are able to impart information to others. You are content that your works should speak for you, and while in former times and other days this generally proved to be the right thing to do, times have changed and Gays have altered. 1f today you have any wares to sell, any merit to i barter, a certain amount of self-ad- vertisement—not necessarily blatant or ostentatious—i: needed, even though the wares you have or the merit you possess should be evident to one and all.
