How fear must always father fear. Each day it is to me more clear. —Digger the Badger. “Fear very often is a good thing, Began Digger the Badger. Peter Rabbit shook his head can’t agree to that, Mr. Badger,” said he. “It makes one feel so dreadfully uncomfortable.” “But it often keeps you out of real trouble,” declared Digger. “The one who 15 most fearful is the one most difficult to catch. Just take my own PETER BREATHLESSLY. case. I never was much of a hand to be afraid. Even from the time I was a little fellow I was a good fighter. I guess I was too good a fighter. Any- way, before I was half grown there was 1o one of whom I-was afraid out there in the Far Vest with the excep- tion of Howler tne Wolf. I wasn't really afraid of him, because I feit smart enough. to keep out of his way. It was a bad state to be in. Yes, sir, it was so. Not being afraid, I grew careless. I didn't keep watch. And go it happened that one day one of those two-legged creatures called men surprised me so far from my home that I couldn’t get back.” “What did you do?” asked Peter breathlessly. “I started to dig in,” replied Digger. “You should have seen the way I made the sand fly. But before I could get down out of reach that two-legged creature got me by the tail. I thought he would pull it out by the roots. Yes, sir, I certainly thought I was going to lose my tail. But I was perfectly willing to lose it if losing it would help me to escape. However, the roots of my tail held, and that two-legged creature held, and finally some water was brought and poured into the hole ‘which I had dug, and then I had to let go and be pulled out. Something was thrown over my head, and I was wrapped up in it and made helpless. Then I was carried away. “I was put in a box lined with that stuff called wire, and then carried away on a long journey. When the Journey ended, I was in a place called a park where there were ever s0 many other people in fur, all kept prisoners.” Peter nodded. “I know,” said he. “It was the same kind of place Old Man Coyote was kept in.” “It was,” agreed Digger. “I must 1 |keep out of sight. to add £ note of brightness to regular home meals. They should always be stiff enough to hold their shape firm- ly and not wilt when taken from the forms. It is wise to add a little more gelatina than a recipe stipulates if the weather is very hot or humid, or to put in a teaspoonful more corn- starch if that is the stiffening me- dium. Today let me suggest some attractive color schemes and ways of serving molded desserts. There are few housewives who do not have molds of some sort among their culinary utensils, but even if they have not, such desserts are practical. A tumbler may serve the purpose. Egg cups make fine indl- vidual molds, and cups can be pressed into use as well as bowls. If tum- blers have fluted sides they make good-looking forms when the dessert is unmolded. Color Schemes. There are numerous ready-prepared desserts that can be bought which, by the addition of milk or water, are done and can be poured into molds to be chilled. Most of these prepara. tions are_tinted to accord with their flavors. To add variety, the cook can combine tints in layers, being careful to have flavors blend equally well. For example, chocolate and straw- berry combine both elements well. Orange and pistachio are excellent Vanilla, which I8 a deep cream color, combines with everything in color and flavor. It is neutral in tone, and it actually adds a bit of flavor that seems to bring out that in other things to advantage. Fancy Molds. Fancy forms lend themselves ad- mirably to this layer scheme of mold- ing. There are molds of ears of corn, which can be filled with vanilla or some other delicate creamy tinted preparation and rest on one-toned green, quite as if the green were stalks or fresh husks. “College ice"” effects can be given brick molds by filling them with four different flavors and colors. Chocolate blanc mange, orange gelatin (simulating sherbet), strawberry bavarfan and vanilla or pistachio cornstarch make typical col- lege ice forms. Have the mold thor- oughly chilled and put on ice when filled, so that the dessert will be as cold as possible. Unmold on a plat- ter and surround with whipped cream. This is suggested for refreshments when ices cannot be had, or for emer- gencles. Successful Unmolding. It is important to unmold such desserts so that they are perfect in shape and contour, If the prepara- tion does not slip out easily, wrap & cloth dipper in boiling water around the mold or set the mold for an in- stant in a pan of hot water. If the mold is of crockery it must be left in the water long enough for the heat to get through it. Metal molds heat through almost instantly. To leave the mold wrapped in & hot cloth or allow it to stand in the water just a little too long will prevent the forms from being clean cut and dis- tinet. BY THORNTON W. BURGESS confess that I was very well treated. Never in my life did I have 8o much to eat, and I didn't have to work for it. They put me in a big cage with & stone floor and a perfectly comfortable little house in which to sleep and But there wasn't any place to dig. Oh, how I did mise digging! I used to look at these claws of mine and wonder how it would feel to drive them into the ground and make the sand fly out behind me. I grew and grew until I was as big as 1 am now, and all the time I never once forgot that I was a prisoner. Neither did T forget that it was my own fault. “Feeling theway I did, of course, 1 was always watching for a chance to escape. That was all I thought about. That and my food. I d@idn’t intend to miss any chance. I tried the wires of that cage every day. I tried the door to that cage every day. But for a long, long, long time, nothing hap- pened. Then one day when a two- legged creature was cleaning out my pen he didn't close the gate tight. I pushed against it with my nose, and it swung open. You should have seen me get out of there. I may have short legs, but I tell you, Peter Rabbit, I made the most of them that time. Not far away was a little house with & hole under it. I was under there before he missed me, and I stayed under there until night. Every night I traveled until I was tired. So at last I reached the Green Meadows, and here I am.” (Copyright. 1925. by T. W. Burgess.) MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. The Morning Cereal. One mother says: “I found that my small daughter would eat her morning cereal with greater relish and with a larger appetite if I served a very tiny portion at the beginning. Sometimes I have given her as much as four different helpings, each with a tiny square of toast, and she would eat every bit; whereas if I had served the same amount all at once and gone about- my work she would play around in the bowl with her spoon and not be at all interested in cleaning up the dish.” (Copyright. 1925.)
