When Peter Rabbit finally parted from his cousin, Jumper the Hare, he was more certain than ever that he had been quite right i jumping to conclusions. He was more certain than ever that Mrs. Peter had gone with a handsome young stranger. You see, Jumper had told him about this hand- some young rabbit and Peter had been ashamed to ask Jumper if Mrs. Peter had been with this stranger. So when 4the opportunity offered, Peter resumed *I'M GLAD I WASN'T HERE WHEN THAT LOW WAS AROUND, THOUGHT PETER. his hunt all alone. He hunted every- Where that he could think of before going over to the pond of Paddy the Beaver. It was daylight by the time that Peter got over to the pond of Paddy the Beaver. It was deep in the Green Forest. It looked just as peaceful as it always looked. ~Well out towards the middle was Paddy's wonderful house. At one end was Paddy’s won- derful dam across the Laughing Brook. It was this dam which made \the pond. The dam had been there 80 long that now grass was growing on it and there were even some little trees starting up on it. YeR see, mud and sod had filled in beAtveen the sticks with which the dam was built, giving things a chance to grow. But Peter wasn't thinking of the wonder of that house or that dam. He looked eagerly for Paddy. He wanted to ask questions of Paddy. But Paddy the Beaver and Mrs. Paddy had been very busy that night and they had now retired to their comfort in the house to sleep. So Pe around in vain. It began to lool he should have to spend the day there if he hoped to see Paddy the Beaver. Peter himself was tired, so after a bit he sat down comfortably under a Jow-growing hemlock and went to sleep. When he awoke some time later he felt much refreshed. In fact, he felt so much refreshed that he de- cided to go exploring a little. So he started around the edge of the pond ot Paddy the Beaver. After a while he came to a muddy place. Right away he saw footprint that in- terested him. It gave him a little cold shiver. You see, it was the footprint of Yowler 1t had been made only t befor “I'm glad I wasn't here when that fellow was arou * thought Peter, He looked alor little farther and there he saw re footprints.

Peter felt the halr rise on the back of his neck; he gritted his teeth; he became very, very angry just at the sight of tgose footprints.

Do you wonder that Peter received a shock. He was abso- lutely sure now that his conclusions were right. “I knew that they had come over here,” he muttered. “Yes, sir, I knew that they had come to the Green Forest. I'll find them somewhere. I'll find them it I have to hunt untif I'm old and gray, as old and gray as Old Jed Thumper?” Then Peter gritted his teeth and in his anger he stamped. Then he wished he hadn’t because he didn’t want any one to know he was about. (Conyright, 1927.) Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. OCTOBER 28, 1800—Mrs. Thornton, wife of Dr. William Thornton, who drew the original plans of the Capitol, recorded in her diary today that she visited the ‘new bridge built over Tiber or Goose Creek.” This famous old creek flowed across Pennsylvania avenue near Second street, and turned west, crossing Seventh street just| south of Pennsylvania avenue. It is celebrated in the verse of the poet| Tom Moore, who spent about a week in the District of Columbia in 1804. He satirized local conditions as follows: In fancy mow. beneath the twilight gloom.

Print your steps here: BEAUTY CHATS Forethought. If women who do housework would take a little thought before they be- gan work, their faces and hands and arms need never show the results of their hard labors. For those fortunate enough to be able to buy them, there are electric dishwashing machines: nd for those not able to get some- thing so fancy, arrangements with a hose that fastens on the hot water faucet; and for those without an ample supply of hot water, soap shakers, dish mops with long handles, and rub- ber gloves. There are electric washing ma- chines—expensive, but they save their cost in a hundred ways. And for the women who can't afford them, pat- ented soap powders and flakes, so that clothes can soak themselves clean over night or during a morning spent with other sorts of work. I know one woman who soaks her week's laundry Tuesday afternoon while she takes the time oft for a bridge club, who re- turns home to take her hot dinner from a fireless cooker, and with the family’s help quickly rinses and hangs out the clothes wto dry overnight on a back porch.

Or she uses an almond and honey lotion, and pulls on canvas gloves for sweeping, dusting and such jobs—having washed dishes with bare hands that day—but using mops and drainers and such cheap helps. There are always methods of cutting housework too, for the woman who uses her intelligence.

It is an y mark, a brand upon the soul of him who 'has it. In the end the teaser is far worse off than the help- less one he tormented.
