I do not mean by that that he had been awake all of three days. What I do mean is that it was thrce days since he had awakened from the lo Winter sleep which is called hil tion. er since he had been w: ing about with no purpose whatever. It was all aimless.

The reason he had had no_hunger was because his stomach had been idle so long that it had shrunk to almost nothing. Now, however, at the end of three days was beginning to make itself known. Cubby knew where there ought to be certain delicious roots that he could dig up. He made straight for this place. His appetite came to him with sh now.

BURGESS came out of his Winter sleep, But presently a Merry Little Breeze came ickling his nose and bringing him the scent of this other big Bear. It was | Mother Bear. There was no doubt | about_it—it was Mother Bear! Cubby looked around for his twin sister, but he didn't see her anywhere. Then he | started forward to join Mother Bear in digging up those delicious roots. | A decp. rumbly, grumbly growl was his greeting. It stopped Cubby short. It wasn't pleasant, that growl. There was no love in it! More than this, | it wasn't even friendly. Cubby stopped | abruptly with his eves popping right . Could it be that his mother didn't him z me,” said Cubby in a not-too- loud voice. In reply Mother Bear lifted her lips and showed her teeth and again growled that rumbly-grumbly growl that made such an uncemfortable feeling along Cubby's backbone. “Don’'t you know me?” he ventured once more. ‘This time Mother Bear took two or three quick steps toward him and showed more of her teeth than before. Cubby waited to see no more. He turned and away he went as fast as his legs could take him. He forgot all about those luscious roots. He for- got all about being hungry. He just wanted to be somewhere else and he was procceding to get there as fast as he_could. Back in the hollow Mother Bear re- sumed her digging of roots. She grin- ned. “He thinks I didn't know him." thought she. “Well, it is just as well | he should think so. If I would let him, | he would be tagging at my heels and the time has come for him to be out for himself in the Great World. I can't have half-grown youngsters tagging | around when there are babies to look out for. That reminds me, I must | hurry back and see that the darlings reminded of the emptiness of his stom- | ach, was hunting for roots in another | part of the Green Forest and was all the time wondering why his mother had treated him so. “T'll never go near her again,” mut- tered Cubby. , sir, I'll never go near her again.” | And this, if he had only known it. | was exactly what Mother Bear wanted.

For ages the cabbage has been recog- nized as a desirable feature of the diet, imparting ‘strength and vigor to those who ate it. In ancient times many strange medicinal qualities were at- tributed to the vegetable. Cabbage juice, with honey, was used by the Greeks and Romans as an eye salve and a liniment made from it was recom- mended for swelling glands and for bruises. Its juice, with goat’s milk, salt and honey, was a favorite remedy for stiff neck, and taken raw, with vinegar, honey, rue, mint and laserworts, it was thought effective for headaches, it and varfous other ,ailments.
