But, like this man who was planning to trap him, many the Green | farmers don't know this. First, the man went all around the | barn and blocked up every hole that He wanted to make sure that Jimmy would be in there when he returned with the traps. Then he went back to the house, and presently he returned with three steel traps, those wicked things that cause so much suffering to those who are caught in them. He opened the place where Jimmy had gone in, and, taking great care, he set the three traps in such a way that no one could go in or out without stepping in one of them. “There!” said he. I guess I'll have that Skunk by morning. Skunks are not very smart. Hell just walk right I won't even have to bait them. Some animals would suspect a trap, but a Skunk isn't smart enough.” Satisfied that the traps were prop- erly set and that Jimmy would sooner or later be sure to step in one of them, the man went back to the house. All the time Jimmy Skunk was comfortably sleeping in a far corner under the barn. Traps had never entered Jimmy's head. He was quite unconcerned. He had been so long independent that he wasted no time worrying. “Let other people do the wos and he lives up to it. It was a long, long time since Jimmy had been really bothered by any one, and he had grown to expect that no one would bother him.

October 17, 1864, —The military au- thorities this morning arrested quite a number of dealers in clothing, dry goods, fancy goods, etc., in this city and their stores were placed under guard. The cause of this action was not stated, nor is it definitely known except by the authorities, but it is s?lld ":l“ I‘lhhe hDel‘!ons arrested will be charged wi aving supplied goods to Southern blockade runne?& The following are among the estab- lishments placed under guard: Johnson & Co., dry goods, 521 Seventh street; Hellbrun & Bros., boots and shoes, next to Odd Fellows'- Hall, on Seventh street; Newman & Co, dry goods, on Seventh street: J. H. Smith, clothing, on Seventh street; Sears & Co. dry goods, 24 Market space; Weisenfield & Co.. Odeou Hall, clothing store, and Rider & Wallach, boots and shoes, 450 Pennsylvania avenue. » The total number of persons arrest- ed and committed to the Old Capitol Prison was 32, and it required a con- siderable force of officers and men to carry out promptly and effectively the order authorizing the arrests. Capt. Potts had his force of detectives en- gaged on the job, while Col. Ingraham headed another force, composed of his confidential officers. Various telegraph offices were taken possession of and held while the ar- rests were being made here. . That gave rise to a belief that more arrests on similar charges were being made simultaneously in other cities. The whole affair was conducted with such quiet effectiveness that not one of the attaches of Col. Ingraham's office not immediately connected with those having charge of executing the order was aware of the fact until the arrests had been made and the per. sons had been committed to the Old Capitol Prison. The keys to the stores were turned over to Col. Ingraham. ‘There has been some little cannonad- ing, interspersed with occasional ex- changes of musketry fire, between the Union soldiers of the Army of the Poto- mac. before Richmond and the Con- federates, but nothing of importance in the way of an engagement during the last few days, according to information brought here today by the mail steamer ‘Themas A.

Under this direction of the stars it is unlucky to bet or to indulge in any form of speculation. All the signs seem to indicate that the unexgected and surprising will hap- pen in 1928. Thrift is recommended, for there will be new avenues of income open, through novel inventions and new business con- ditions, the seers promise. This is not considered a lucky sign under which to start new enterprises. A slight delay may mean much profit. ‘Women should pursue beaten paths in business and should hesitate before exchanging financial certainty for do- mestic hazards until the stars are more encouraging. New styles in dress may entail large outlays next month, when modistes and merchants should profit. Much entertaining is foretold for the ‘Winter. It is well for all who write letters or sign legal documents to be ex- ceedingly cautious. Love missives may be peculiarly un- fortunate while this configuration pre- valls and may be sadly misunderstood. Persons whose birth date it is may have a strenuous year, in which they must make important decisions. The young should be careful in making mar- riage engagements. Children born on that day probably will be studious and fond of research. Many archeologists are born under this sign, which usually guides persons of unusual gifts. (Copyright, 1928.)

Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWI Judging Others. You are continually taking mental notes on some one. Most of these you keep to yourself. Some one is continu- ally asking you your opinion of others. Most. of these are not worth the time it takes to recite them. A worthwhile judgment of this sort is hard to form and very much harder to borrow. Why? 1In the first place, you have a measur- ing stick that is your very own. You judge others very largely in terms of yourself. What you suppose others are is an indication of what you suppose you are. Your concept of traits such as ‘courage, honesty and morality differs from the concepts of other people, although you all use the same names. Suppose A asks you to pass upon the honesty of B. You have known B for some time. What have you to offer? How much is it worth to A? For the sake of arflnment« we will suppose that you think that you are strictly honest—100 per cent. This, then, is your standard. Your judgment of B's honesty will be something near that standard, although B's real rating might not be more than 50 per cent. Have you not observed that the best ple and the best-meaning people are ikely to overesgmate the character traits of others? In the second place, your judgment of B's honesty is likely to be in error for the simple reason that you already have one. In other words, judgments already made influence all later ones. Parents usually overestimate the bright- ness of their dull children and under- estimate the brilliancy of the precocious. Teachers in the schools will make the same mistakes in regard to their pupils. Whole communities will fail to recog- nize their own geniuses. In the case of the parents and teachers expectations run away with facts. In the case of community judgments the humdrum of everyday life discourages recognition of superior traits.

Wash and rinse in clear warm water always. When washing blankets add two teaspoons of glycerin to each pint of water. This will make the water soft and prevent the blankets becoming hard. ‘Those who sleep in cold rooms should get two pairs of cotton blankets, cut one-third off each pair, sew these two thirds to- gether, hem the end of the others. Then you have three nice long ones, which can be changed and washed as easily as sheets and are so much warmer.

Phones Adams 4934-4935-4936-4937-4938-4939 One of the biggest assets a girl can have is perfect poise. By poise I do not mean an overbearing cocksureness, however. Many of my readers who lack this precious quality ask me how to overcome the self-consciousness that robs them of poise. Girls who blush and stammer when spoken to or who are tongue-tied and awkward in the presence of strangers appear at an immense disadvantage. They fail to do Jjustice to themselves. Self-consciousness often has its roots in some physical deficiency. Under- weight, excessive overweight, or any- thing else that interferes with normal health tends to encourage the morbid state of mind that makes one unduly sensitive and shy. The first practical step toward curing this condition is to build up perfect health according to the advice of a physician. Many self- conscious girls would become poised and cheerful if they gained a few pounds, took more exercise and had more sleep at_night. The next step is to adopt a daily program of exercise to develop the sense of rhythm and balance in the body. On awakening in the morning lie still in bed and take a half dozen slow, full breaths. Do not try to stretch and strain the muscles, but just breathe naturally and easily. In order to make the breathing practice rhythmic do it in time to the pulse- beats at your wrists. Inhale for six beats, hold one or two, then exhale slowly for eight pulse-beats. Now get out of bed and do the fol- lowing exercises for 10 minutes: (1) Stand erect with chin up and abdomen in. Swing your right arm in wide circles from the shoulder five times. Now swing your left arm five times. Now swing them together, let- ting your trunk swing freely. The right arm should be up above the head ready for the downward swing while the left arm is down and beginning to come up. What Men Are Afraid Of. Money has a great deal to do with the reluctance of some men to marry. Unfortunately some of these men are temperamentally and otherwise suited to a wedded life. Women without any understanding of men’s money fears ascribe the hesitation of some men to lack of eourage, spirit, self assertive- ness and what not. Nine out of ten men are afraid that the woman they wish to marry, or hope to marry, will be extravagant. Often they are afraid to admit their real earnings because they are afraid these are either insufficlent or not quite up to the woman's expectations or ambitions. Others deprecate their income so as to have a “margin of safety” once they are married. ~Some men about on the brink of a car ir fear that an extrava- gant wife wiij deprive them of their opportunity. chers fear that wedded life will force them to sacrifice com- forts dear to them.

(2) Practice correct posture, holding your figure as tall as you can and balancing a book on your head as you walk two or three times around the room. (3) Stand ercct with arms hanging at sides. Step to the right with the right foot and swing the left leg over in front of the right and touch the floor with the left toe. At the same time swing the arms to the right and let the trunk sway over to the left. Now step to the left with the left foot and swing the right over it, swinging the arms to the left and the trunk to the right, Repeat the movements rhythmically.

Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN. times fear that a wife will upset their financial balance and either raise their standard in a recklessly extravagant way, or lower it to their discomfort. Some women are fully aware that every man cannot choose between his bachelor luxuries and his marital pleas- ures. Then, of course, there is the man who lives inexpensively at home, and enjoys almost the full benefits of his income, who is reluctant to embark alone on the seas of matrimony with- out the spar of his family hearth. A few men are afraid that their wives will cause social activities to in- terefere with their professions, busi- nesses, saving plans and the like. There is only one remedy for this varied lot of fears. That is a complete understanding between every man and woman considering matrimony. By ex- pressing their respective opinions, minds and feelings frankly, without reserve, and by revealing information truthfully, it is readily possible to come to an understanding on a mode of liv- ing and course of conduct. Ignorance | is the chief cause of fear, and the clever woman disarms with frankness.

When the omelet I had spoken of was ready I sat down to table by my- self. I had not yet swallowed the first mouthful when the landlord came in, followed by a man who had stopped him in the street. This cavalier, who wore a long sword and seemed to be about 30 years of age, advanced toward me with an’ eager air, saying: “Mr.” Student, I am informed that you are that Signor Gil Blas of San- tillano who is the link of philosophy, the ornament of Oviedo. Is it possible that you are that mirror of learning, that sublime genius whose reputation is so great in this country? You know not,” continued he, addressing himself to the innkeeper and his wife, “you know not what you posses! You have a treasure in your house! Behold in this young gentleman the eighth wonder of the world!" ‘Then, turning and throwing his arms about my neck, “Forgive,” cried he, “my delight! I cannot contain the joy that your presence creates.” I could not answer for some time, because he locked me so close in his arms that I was almost suffocated for want of breath. It was not till I had disengaged my head from his embrace that I replied: “Signor Cavaller, I did not think | my name was known here.” | *“How? Known!” he resumed in his irormer strain. “‘We keep a register |of all the celebrated names within 20 | leagues of us.” You in particular are looked iupon as a prodigy, and I don't at all doubt that Spain will one day be as proud of you as Greece was of her Seven Sages.” ‘These words were followed by a fresh hug, which I was forced to endure, though at the risk of strangulatfon. With the little experience I had I ought not to have been the dupe of these pro- tes.slm, fnd hyperbolical compliments. I ought te have known by his extrava- gant flattery that he was one of these parasites which abound in every town, and who when a stranger arrives intro- duce themselves to him in order to fill hero, { their belies at his expense. But my youth and vanity made me judge other- wise. My admirer appeared to me to | be so much of a gentleman that I in- | vited him to take a share of my supper. “Ah, with all my soul!” cried he. “I am too much obliged to my kind stars for having thrown me in the way of the illustrious Gil Blas not to enjoy my good fortune as long as I can. I have no great appetite,” pursued he, “but I will sit down to bear you companv and eat a mouthful purely out of com- plaisance.” So saying, my panegyrist took his place opposite me, and a cover being laid for him he attacked the omelet as voraciously as if he had fasted three whole days. By his complaisant begin- ning I foresaw that our dish would not last long, and therefore ordered a second, which they dressed with such dispatch that it was served just as we —or_rather he—had made an end of the first. He proceeded on this with the same | vigor, and found means without losing |one stroke of his teeth to overwhelm me with praises during the whole re- past, which made me very well pleased [ with my sweet self. He drank in pro- ortion to his eating—sometimes to y health, sometimes to that of my | father and mother, whose happiness in having such a son as me he could not long enough admire. All the while he plied me with wine and insisted upon my doing him justice, while I toasted health for health, a circumstance which, together with his intoxicating flattery, put me into such good humor that, seeing our second omelet half devoured, I asked the land- lord if he had no fish in the house. Signor Corcuelo, who in all likeli- | hood had a fellow feeling with the pa: site, replied: “I have a delicate trout, but those who eat it must pay for the sauce. d’Tstl bit too dainty for your palate, I ubt.” “What do you call too dainty?” said the sycophant, ralsing his “You're a wiseacre, indeed! Know that there is nothing in this house too good for Signor Gil Blas de Santillano, who deserved to be entertainéd like a prince.” I was pleased at his laying hold of the landlord’s last words, in which he prevented me, who, finding myself of- fended, sald with an air of disdain: “Produce this trout of vours, Gaffer Corcuelo, and give yourself no trouble about the consequence.” This was what the innkeeper wanted.

He got it ready and served it up in a trice. At sight of this new dish I could perceive the parasite’s eye sparkle with joy, and he renewed that complaisance —I mean for the fish—which he had already shown for the eggs. At last, however, he was obliged to give out, being crammed to the very throat. Having, therefore, eaten and drunk his full, he thought proper to conclude the farce by rising from the table and accosting me in these words: “Signor Gil Blas, I.am too well satis- fled with your good cheer to leave you without offering an important advice, which you seem to have great need of. Henceforth beware of praise and be upon your guard against everybody you do not know. You may meet with other people inclined to divert themselves with your credulity, and perhaps to push things still farther, but don't be duped again, nor believe yourself (though they should swear it) the eighth wonder of the world.” So saying, he laughed in my face and stalked away. I was as much affected by this bite as I have since been by misfortunes of far greater consequence. I could not forgive myself for having been so grossly imposed upon; or, rather, I was shocked to find my pride so humbled. “How,” said I to myself, “has the traitor, then, made a jest of me? His design in accosting my landlord in the street was only to pump him, or per- haps they understand one another. Ah, simple Gil Blas! Go hang thyself for shame for having given such rascals an opportunity of turning thee into ridicule! I suppose they’ll trump up a fine story of this affair, which will reach Oviedo, and doubtless do thee a great deal of honor and make thy par- ents repent their having thrown away so much good counsel on an ass. In- stead of exhorting me not to wrong anybody, they ought to have cautioned me against the knavery of the world. Chagrined with these mortifying re- flections and inflamed with resentment, I locked myself in my chamber and went to bed, where, however, I did not sleep; for before I could close my eyes the carrier came to let me know he was ready to set out and only waited for me. I got up instantly, and while I put on my clothes Corcuelo brought me a bill, in which, I assure you, the trout was not forgotten; and I was not only obliged to gratify his exorbitance but I had also the mortification to per- ceive while I counted the money that the sarcastic knave remembered my venture, After having paid sauce for a supper which I had so ill digested, I went to the muleteer with my ba; wishing the parasite, the innkeeper and his inn at the devil. Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND. Don't think, for one minute, that hassocks have breathed their last! For a few years they seemed to have been submerged by the incoming rush of footstools with wooden and iron frames and all sorts of decorative coverings. Beneath the breakfast tables of one of the largest hotels in America are found hassocks covered with old-time carpeting and equipped with little ears with which to carry them about. After seeing these we rush home and ask mother and grandmother where those were put that were about the house for so long. On being told that they were thrown away because they were the cause of so many sneering com- ments, we have nothing to say. Se- gretly, however, we wish we had them back again. Almost like those, but really a deal better, are the hassocks made of leather. They are just the thing for the sun room, because they are made in combinations of orange and black, yellow and black and the various other colors which are so striking for use with the gayly colored fabrics appro- priate in a room of this type.
