Yes, they are even more than' first cousins, are often classified as dis tinct species and doubtless the two fruits branched off from the same an. cestral tree type in comparatively re. cent times. “In my old home in New England there were four peach trees growing in the garden. one of them known as “Melocotooh,” and one single branch always bore nectarines. which seems to have been a sport or a revision to the ancestral type. Also I observed that in crossing peaches among them- selves there sometimes will be found varieties with a smooth skin. “With this in mind, I made some experiments in crossing the Muir peach and the white nectarine. The nectarine was very acid, but with a smooth skin, while the peach was hardy, immune from curl-leaf and the frult’ very sweet, free.stone, but cov- ered with the disagreeable fuzz com- mon to all peaches. “After a few generations these peach-nectarine hybrids have resulted .in a number of varlations, many of them having the smooth skin of the nectarine and the size and quality of the peach. The best of these, the ‘Opulent, while too soft for shipment, is quite hardy and is grown' where the temperature is 40 degrees below zero. The ‘Opulent’ was so named because it is the best quality of all known peaches.” “Will you try the stoneless peach nex “As yet very little has been ac- complished, and much time and great patience are necessary.

You should have seen Peter's eyes open then. “You say that Grubby has pockets in his cheeks. vet they are not on the inside of his cheeks. Then how can they be in his cheeks?"* demanded Peter.

But just then he wasn't inter- ested in anything but those pockets that belong to Grubby Gopher. “Really and truly, are thev on the outside of his cheeks, Mr. Badger?” he asked. “Really and truly they are,” replied Digger. “They open from the outside from close by the mouth, and each | pocket is fur-lined." Peter's eyes were growing bigger and bigger. “You mean that those pockets have.hair growing on the in- side?” he cried. #That's just what T mean,” replied Digger. ““Those are very handy pock- ets. They are so big that they ex- tend way back along his neck. What Striped Chipmunk can carry in his pockets {s nothing compared to what Grubby Gopher can carry in his pock- jets.

C., THURSDAY, l DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX The School Teacher Whose Mother Believes the ‘Business World Dangerously Full of Men—What Conversational Line Attracts Boys?—The Best Way to Treat a Runaway Father. EAR MISS DIX: I am nearly 30 years old, and have neveér done any work except teach school. I hold only a second-grade- certificate, s6 1 usually get short-term schools. often in undesirable places. I do not expect to become a first-class teacher, and so I thought of taking a business course, as I am good in spelling and arithmetic. My mother has always objected to my going into business because in an office girls are usually associated with men. Would you advise me to take the business coursef CAROLINE. Answer: T certainly would. At 30 you are tno old to begin the long college course that you would have to take in order to command a fine salary as a teacher, but you are just the right age to become an efficient office woman. You are past the foolish flapper stage, and are ready to settle down and put your mind and vour, heart and your back into vour work Your mother’s objection to vour going into an office because vou would be assocjated with men‘is a foolish one. Wherever you o You will meet men and men are no more dangerous in an office than they are on the street or in a ballroom ¥ . Indeed, they are far less so, for during business hours a man's mind is not occupied with love-making., but with money-making. He isn't chasing Petticoats.. He is pursuing the almighty dollar. He is not posing as a sheik He is too busy trying to hold down his job. Probably there is no other place in the world where there is as little flirtation and where sex cuts as little figure as it does in a business house, where men and women work side by side. Most of the lurid pictures and stories about employers ‘who make love to their secretaries are pure fiction. Ninety-nine bosses out of u hundred are more interested in.their stenox- rapher's spelling than they are in their eves, and never think of them except as part of the office machine. So vour mother can pul aside her the dangers you will encounter in an office. mid-Victorian' apprehensions about They are negligible.

EAR DOROTHY DIX: When a girl goes out for the first time with a young man, should she talk to him about herself? Should she tell him Tots of boy friends and dates, and try to make him think she is or should she say that she is lonesome and doesn’t o out much? CURTOUS. Answer: She shouldn't do any of these things if she ever expects to see the young man again. T can think of no more fatal line of conversation that she could possibly hand out. s In the first place, no young man wants to hear a gifl monologue about herself. No other human being excepi your own mother wants to hear all the commonplace details about your uneventful life, or is interested in the small_chronicles of vour daily life. & .

Can your private affa and put the loud pedal on the man. Fish around until vou find out what he is interested in, and then ask him to tell you the story of his life, and get him to talking about himself, if vou want to really. interest him. Never brag to one man about other men. Never boast of your conquests Never intimate that -this boy is crazy about you.and that you could marry that one. It gives him cold feet and scares him off. for he is suspicious that the next time you tell the story you will pretend that you have got his scalp hanging at your belt, and he has no mind to have you glorify yourself at his expense. Never think that you can get a man by appealing to-his sympathy’ for as a poor, forlorn, neglected girl. that all the other men have passed over. Nothing would drive him away -quicker. Men are like sheep where women are concerned. They follow the leader, and flock around the girls that other men are flocking around. Also, the less you run after men the more they will run after vou. and the best attitude to take is one of cordiality, but not of humility. vou accept them with appreciation, but Act as if you were pleased, but not DOROTHY DIX When a boy shows you attention: don't execute flipflops of gratitude. overwhelmed.

What would vou write him? touch with his children - I A —— Answer: T should write him that as long as he had failed in his duty to me T considered that I had no duty to him.

As.you motor through ‘the suburbs these days have you caught a glimpse, of some unbelievably crimson, lovely flower and wondered what it is? It is the scarlet bee balm, with its royal heads “of -blossoms, and surely no more gorgeous native flower exists. The scarlet bee balm is a.native of the eastern United States, but it so happens that just around the District of ‘Columbia it is' absent as a wild plant and grows only in gardens. The yellow bee baim is native, how- ever. Its petals are a lemon yellow spotted with purple, and there are purple and white bee balms, too, which occur wild with us. / rich in an aromatic oil which, on close inspection, may be seen glittering in the form of a tiny oil drop in every one of the plant's thousands of pores.., The odor so spicy-sweet, lures humans as much as the flowers’ colors, and it h nec- tarfes. 3 The bee balms are all. of the mint family, and of it they dre perhaps the showiest native mints. You may always tell a member of the mint family; even if it has ho aroma, by the, square stem, opposite leaves and the peculiar shape of the flower, which is like two flaring lips, the upper gen- erally curling upward and smaller, the larger, surging outward or stage to insects. The flower tube is generally very long, so that not all in- sects can enter jt. For elaboration and grace of form, for brilliant color, the scarlet bee balm is not inferior.to any ‘orchid. The only difference is in the .bee balm’s favor—it is a hardy native instead of a tender hothouse creature.
