To be sure, the goods have undergone a shrinking process during manufac- ture, but usually they have not shrunk their full amount. Some hints ‘ NOT REMOVE THE GOOI FROM THE FOLDS IN SHRINK- ING. vn the best method of shrinking such goods may be welcome. When it comes to the shrinking of woolen goods, it is advisable to have this done Ly expert Generally this will be seen to by the BEDTIME STORIE Chatterer Has Tantrum.

Just as soon as Chatterer the Red Squirrel left the stump where he had found Whitefoot the Woodmouse li ing. and from which he had driven Whitefoot, the latter returned. The Black Shadows were creeping through the Green Forest and Whitefoot knew that Chatterer would not return that day. He knew that Chatterer does not want to be out after dark. But White- foot hmself likes the dark. e feels safer then. He knows that there is nothing, not the least, teenigst-weeni- HE HADN'T BEEN T, WHEN HE SAW CHATTERER THE RED SQUIRREL. est thing, about darkness itself to be afraid of. He knows that in darkness there are fewer eyes to see him. So Whitefoot is always glad when the Black Shadows come. “It will be just like Chatterer to come back here tomorrow to see if 1 am here,” said Whitefoot to as he ate his supper of pine loves to other people. He couldn’t possible pass up such a chance as this. No, sir, he couldn't pass up such a chance as this. As surely as jolly, round, red Mr. Sun will go climbing up in the biue, blue sky tomorrow morning, Chatterer will come over here some time during the day. He says these seeds are his. Perhaps they were once, but they are mine now. He doesn't want them; he won't use them; I do want them and I will use them.

Nothing could be simpler than this shrin i of wash goods.

Now, there isn't a lazy bone in Whitefoot the Woodmouse when there | is any reason for him to keep busy. | He promiptly went to work with all | his might, carrying those seeds down |into that hollow and storing them | away. Once in a while he would stop | &nd rest for a minute or two. Ther | he would go to work again. By the time jolly round Mr. Sun started his daily ‘climb up in the blue, blue sky, there wasn't a pine sced left in the old storeroom in that stump. No, sir, not one seed was left. They were all stored away in that hollow root. Whitefoot was tired, but he was very happy, also. He washed his face and | hands, for Whitefoot s very neat. You know, his hands are white and he has to wash them often to keep them clean. Then he left the old stump and skipped across the snow to a little round hole which led down through the snow to a certain hollow log burled under the snow. Down this he disappeared. He was going to take a nap. After he had had a good nap, White- foot climbed out and sat beneath a snow-covered hemlock branch where he couldn't be seen, but where he could peep out and watch that old stump. He hadn't been there long when he saw Chatterer the Red Squir- | rel. Strange to say, Chatterer was making no nolse. Whitefoot grinned. He knew that Chatterer was planning to take him by surprise if he should be in that old stump. He watched Chatterer pop in. In just about one-half a minute Chatterer was making noise enough to make up for all his silence, My, my, my, my, how his tongue was flving! ~ Whitefoot's eyes twinkled.

As a matter of fact, this was the truth. Baldwin had no_intention of binding himself, and had ordered the {lumber for the Masachusetts Con- tracting Co.

It is perhaps an unreasonable expecta- tion, but young matrons everywhere are trying their best to live up to it. After the novelty and anxlety over the arrival of her first-born has sub- sided somewhat, the average young mother begins to pay a little more at- tention to her personal appearance. She may note with alarm that her hair, once thick and curly, has be- comé scanty, straight and premature- m: ly touched with gray. Her flgure is not so straight and supple as it was and her welght has dropped down con- siderably or else has increased to a disfiguring degree. Her hands have lost their smooth whiteness.

It is well to practice poise and to follow routine work the first part of the day. ‘Women may be especially provoking under this sway, which makes them capricious and changeable. It should be a fairly fortunate wed- ding day, since it presages quick fluctuations of luck, with the good always predominating.

It is supposed to be easy to deceive oneself while this rule prevails, and for this reason one should not act {m- pulsively on any sanguine plan.

She's a nice enough kid—she dresses well, looks pretty and knows how to talk—but her feelings have the un comfortable habit of spilling over. That is to say, she makes tremen- dously emotional scenes about all sorts of things in front of all sorts of people. She seems to have no reticence, no sort of natural barrler of reserve to keep her from emotionalizing In front of every one she meets. Of course, in another country, with another race of people, her weakness would go unnoticed. The warm-blooded Latins don’t con- sider it bad form to burst into tears to love violently and publicly—to suffer pan of jealousy openly, where ail may ¢ They love allowing their feelings to spill_over. But we Anglo-Saxons usually hate it—and we are uncom | fortable in the presence of those who show o restraint. Eunice honestly doesn't realize how black an eye her conduct gives her. I belleve she's just a little bit proud tof that flery, impulsive nature of hers, but she shouldn't be. She emba rasses all sorts of people—repels thein with the violence of her emotions. If she's jealous because Charles has been flirting with Estelle, she con- fronts him with blazing eyes on the dance floor—she makes a public scene; she fairly hisses at Hstelle. Invariably she ends in tears, appeal ing to all her friends to witness how she has to suffer. And invariably a dozen people turn | away from her with an expression of | amused disgust—for they seldom feel sympathy for one possessing so little | selt-control. On the night when Eunice became engaged to Charles, few will forget the joyous abandon with which she confessed her love to all and sundry who cared to hear. ‘I shall dle, I'm so happ: shrieked, her eyes glowing. ‘“‘Oh, none of you can realize what I'm feeling.

There must be something in it Poets raved about it, fiction writers fairly. wallowed in it. And yet Mark had never known it for what it was. He had never had his heart leap in his | breast, his pulses had never been stirred unduly. He had never experi- enced a terrible longing for another person. And yet he loved poetry and there were lines that filled him with a longing that sometimes made him al- most ashamed. In his very practical moments he told himself that there was nothing in it. Far better to pick out a woman who had a sense of humor and appre- ciated the things you yourself liked. And yet, as he brought his romance |into the light of day, and Jessica's | misty gray eyes lighted up, it seemed somehow a poor little romance. Of | course his eyes. were open. He knew exactly what he wanted to do. But Jessica was still floundering about, |and worse still was about to make a mess of her life. “Ts she young?' Jessica asked eagerly. | “Well, she’s not as old as T am. think you'd like her. Of course you'll meet her before long. As a matter of fact I haven't proposed to her as yet.” “And I suppose you think she's wait- ng like a nice ripe plum, ready to drop into your mouth when you get ready to _ask her the fatal question.” Mark bit into a hot popover, and | then said pleadingly* “Now, Bunny, is that kind?"” She eyed him narrowly. ‘“You don’t call me Jessica any more, do you?" He looked up in pretended astonish- ment. | “I thought you preferred Bunny. I | strive to please.” She caught herself up immediately. | “Oh, I do prefer it. But as you were saying, you think I'd like her?" “Yes, I'm sure of it. She isn't very | far past 30, and she’s good looking and tolerant. She isn't the type to get shocked. Yes, I'm sure you'd like hef. Perhaps you'd send her an invitation to your wedding. I'll have all the de- tails settled before then, so she'll really be one of the family. Jesslca looked up quickly, saw that he was quite serious, and considered this for a moment. Then she sald very quietly. ‘“You don't sound a bit crazy about | her. Are you sure you're in love “Quite sure.” “How do you know?"" ! “Well, I've been thinking of asklngi her to marry me for a long time, and the idea hasn't palled on me. I'm still for it.” “But that’s no sign.” What do you mean?” ““Well, doesn’t she thriil you, aren't cited about her?” | | Thwg‘\ troubl waves wgainst 8 rock Upon me in my loneliness today IF I stand firm peri like waves their shec Will spend itself in rainbow-colored P .
