However, since it is the French woman who is the criterion of beauti- ful costuming. let us consider some of the other ways in which she conveys the impression of personal beauty through it. The clothes may not pe BEDTIME STORIE Would you be master of your fate, Seize opportunity—don't wait. —Old Mother Nature. Chatterer was growing thin because he worried. You see, he never knew* when he might find another one of his storehouses emptied. He was almost afraid to peep into them for fear he would find nothing in them. You will remember that two of them had been emptied. Had Chatterer known who had taken the nuts, he wouldn't have minded so much. He would have been just as angry, but THE NEXT HOLE HE FOUND WAS IN A HOLLOW STUMP. he wouldu't have worried quite so much. You gee, he would have known what to do, “There's one thing I Chatterer to himself one thing I can do. I can hunt around and find some new storehouses. 1 can hunt around and find some that are even more secret than those I have That's what 11l do.” That is just what Chatterer did do, and the minute that Chatterer started it he felt hetter. Ye eir, he feit u whole lot hetter. It al ways is that way. The best way of getting rid of worries ix to do some- thing. 80 Chatterer scampered this way and scampered that way and scamper ed the other way. Whichever way he scampered those bright eyes of hix were looking for holes—holes in trees, holes in stumps, holes in the snow; and it was surprising how many of them he found. Whenever he found one he investigated it. That meuns he went into it and looked it all over. He found out all about it. He used his nose as well as his eyes. And alil the time he talked to himself “This hole won't do,” said he. My cousin Rusty has been here.

It didn't take him long to decide. “This won't do,” sald he. “No, sir, this won't do. ‘Whitefoot the Woodmouse has been here. I can smell him. 1 don’t want a storehouse that Whitefoot knows about.” So Chatterer turned his back on that hole. The next ‘hole he found was in a hollow- stump. It was an old stump. Jt was some little distance from where Chatterer lived. He hadn’t been over there for so long that he hadn't known anything about that hole. ‘You see it had been made since he was last there. At least, the entrance had been made. When he first found it he was delighted. There were no signs that anybody had been there for a long time. There were no fresh claw marks around the entrance, Chatterer popped in. Right away he was more delighted than ever. This would make a splendid storehouse. He fairly chuckled with delight. But abruptly he stopped chuckling. He had found the shell of a hickory nut. ““No hickory nut could be in here unless scme one had brought it said Chatterer, talking to himself. “And the meat has been taken out of it. It looks to me Itke the work of my cousin Happy Jack, the Gray Squirrel. This nut was brought In here a long time ago and probably Happy Jack has for- kotten all about this place. But per- haps he‘ hasn't forgetten No, this won't dd. 1 would just love to have it for a storehouse, but it won't do.

She had bought several vards and had fashioned it into cur- tains. Shirred very full, the effect was charming. And the plain little | bed looked very white and clean.

She almost slammed the | door in Mrs. Morse's face, and once | she had attained privacy she burst once more into tears. | At home, in her own luxurious bed- room, she would be dressing. And then later there would be Ray, always s0 considerate and so admiring. His manner toward her was perfect. He never slopped over; he always appre- ciated every mood of hers. The other girls were jealous, and why shouldn’t they be? Ray was adorable. He al- ways did the right thing at the right time. Amd now this apparently impos- sible thing had happened and they were actually separated. She had been planning to wear her siiver dress, and as this thought flashed across her mind Jessica was startled. She had no things she had on. ways so fastidious, who removed a garment when it looked crumpled, even If she had worn it only an hour or so. She thought of the small white bath- room adjoining her room; its simple conveniences seemed like the most ex- travagant luxuries to her now. There wasn't even the most awful makeshift bathroom in_this horrible place. She would probably have to do her bath- ing in that miserable little stream her guardian was so crazy about. But what about clothes? They were what bothered her most. Swiftly she went to the simple, built-in wardrobe and swung the door wide. Then she gasped. Several pairs of khaki breeches were suspended from hangers. There was a warm, woolly cape of brushed wool and a scarlet blazer of flannel. On the shelf was a black velvet tam-o’-shanter and on the floor two pairs of plain tan oxfords. She rushed over to the drawers and pulled one out. Piles of neat white underwear met her eyes, and shirts—about half a_dozen white ones and two of khakl. That was all! She, who had been accustomed to pull- ing out a drawer of her chiffonier and gloating over piles of fragrant crepe de chine and georgette crepe, was now condemned to wearing muslin. _Oh, how she hated Mark Burton! How she hated him! A knock sounded on the door and she decided not to answer it. She slumped into a chalr and sat motfon- le Outside it was growing dark and the wind made a hollow sound in the pine trees. The outlines of the furniture in the room were already growing gray and indefinite, and when the knock on the door was repeated and Mrs. Morse's voice called out cheerily, “It’s just me, Miss Bartlett. I thought you might, want a light to make it more cheerful,” Jessica walked across the room and, opening the door, took the lamp from the older woman's hand. She didn't thank her for it, however.
