L BE Alow I SAYTHIS— 2 CuPS OF Cubby Bear Steps Out. | ‘When sweet Mistress Spring awak- ened all the slespers, Cubby Bear was among them. You remember Cubby | Bear. You will remember how when he was a very little fellow he was found | by Farmer Brown's Boy and taken home. I guess. too, you Wil remember | all the mischief he got into. Then he was returned to his mother, and with | his twin sister, he spent that first Win- ter sleeping with great big Mother Bear. ‘The following Spring he and his twin sister had awakened at the same time and had gone out into the Green For- est. together, still tagging after their mother. e | e MUTTERED CUBBY. But this Spring when Cubby awoke thers was no twin sister by his side, | snd there was no Mother Bear to snug- | fifin"’ -gnlnsz. At first Cubby couldn't | k where he was. Then, little by little, he remembered. He remembered | how late in the Summer he had wanted | to be by himself and had wandered sway from his mother and sister. He remembered the coming of cold weath- | er and how, when he was having diffi- | culty in finding anything to eat. he became very sleepy and, finally, made himself & bed in a big hollow log. This must be where he was now. He won- dered how long he had been asleep. Finally, after yawning many times, he | ] . One who runs in short races. . Speaker. . Windows over doors, . Relicts. .

For a few’ moments he stood testing the Merry Little Breezes that tickled his nose. The air was cool, and somehow it was dif- ferent from what it had been when he went to sleep. He wasn't hungry, but neither did he want to sleep longer. “I'll look around a little,” muttered Cubby. “T'll look around a little and see what I can find.” So Cubby began to shuffie along rather slowly. You see, he was still stiff. He didn't feel very lively. Don't forget that he had slept all Winter. That was enough to make any one stiff. Cubby didn’t go far before he decided he would go back and take another rap. As he approached that hollow log he suddenly became aware that there | was some one about. His nose told | him that. There was a prickly feeling on the top of his head as he sniffed. | “It's a Bear!” thought Cubby. “It's a big Bear! It's a Bear I don't want to have anything to do with.” Still, curiosity kept Cubby there. He would go forward a few steps and then he would stop to look and listen and | smell. Presently he was where he could see the entrance to that big hollow log where he had spent the Winter. Sure enough. there was a Bear there. There was a very big Bear there. That Bear was sniffing at the opening of that hol- | low log. Suddenly he turned toward | Cubby and as he did so he lifted his | Jips. Cubby saw a mouthful of big teeth. Suddenly Cubby was no longer sleepy. He wanted to go somewhere. He wanted to go somewhere in a hurry. He didn't care where he went, so long as it was somewhere else. ‘There was a deep, rumbly, grumbly growl from the big Bear. Cubby wanted more than ever to be somewhere else, and he started. He forgot that he was stiff. He wasn't the least bit sleepy. He hadn't the least use for that big hollow log any more. He wanted to see the Great World. He wanted to see some other part of it where there wasn't a great big Bear with great big teeth And he was on his way. How surprised Cubby would have been had some one told him that that great big Bear was his own father, Buster Bear. And how surprised Buster Bear wou'd have been had some one told him that that half- grown young Bear was his own son. But it was all just so. (Copyright. 1929.) Down. . Draw from an ori~inal. .

It is sprayed on the inside surface of sheathing between wall studs by means of compressed air. It is made of pul- verized newspapers and magazines to which a fireproofing chemical is added ; during the shredding process. The binder for holding it in place after spraying_is silicate of soda (water glass). It can be applied to practically any kind of building surface in thick- nesses of one-half an’ inch up to the full depth of the studding. This mate- rial closes openings around pipes, elec- trical conduits—in fact, goes into all openings in the walls.and insulates against sound and temperature changes, Havware Concerning Biscuits ol and g From Jack Sharkey and Stribling.
