By some quirk his name was printed in the directory instead of that of his son. “In my speeches throughout the rural districts I carried several of the direc- tories and pointed out that my oppo- nent was not even a resident of the district—and here was the proof.” But it seemed there were people who knew nothing of city directories. “For I learned later,” the Congress- man went on, “that some of the people thought I was carrying a list of all the inmates of the city jail. I carried whole precincts on the strength of that bellef.” Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND.

As he approached the tree where they had_left Prickly Porky, Flip heard a rustling sound. It came from off to one side. Flip paused and looked that way. He caught a glimpse of some one moving just back of a small hemlock tree. Cau- tiously Flip moved around to where he could see better. Once he would have rushed around heedlessly but he had learned that this was not a wise thing to o in the Green Forest. When he reached a point where he could see clearly, there was Prickly Porky shuf- fiing along. Flip stood still and watched him for & few minutes. “He’s the slowest mov- ing fellow I ever saw,” thought Flip. “He doesn’t look the least bit dangerous.

Flip was suddenly filled with respect for those teeth. But when he noticed how very slow Prickly Porky was as he shuffied along, he thought less about those teeth, Excitement began to take possession of Flip. There was no log_ handy for Prickly Porky to poke his head under. He was right out in the open. The hair began to rise along Flip’s shoulders. He growled. Prickly Porky heard that growl and turned. “You better leave me alone,” said Prickly Porky. “I haven't touched you yet, have I?" el d Flij torted Flip. “No,” replied Prickly Porky, “so I am warning you that you better not.” ] ’rl)lupc you think I don’t dare to,” sai p. on’t care whether dare to or not,” retorted Prickly gfl “Come shead and try it if you want to, but I WAarn you you better not.” By this time Flip had forgotten all about the warning that Bowser the Hound had given him.

Flip be- gan to walk around Prickly Porky in the stiff-legged manner a dog some- times uses when he is getting ready to fight. All the time Plip was growling. He didn’t bark. For one thing he didn't want Bowser to interfere again. He didn't feel like barking anyway. He barks when he is excited. When he is angry he growls. And Flip was angry now and growing more so. Italian Savory. Make a white sauce, add half a cup- ful of grated or finely cut cheese before removing from the fire and stir. Ofl a baking dish, put in a layer of cooked or canned spinach or other greens, a layer of sliced eggs and a layer of cheese sauce. Repeat as needed. Cover with bread crumbs to which a small amount of fat has been added. Bake until the crumbs are brown. If the spinach is fresh, wash it well, cook with little or no water for 10 minutes, then cut up and season. Use the juice, as it con- tains valuable vitamins and minerals. Beet tops, dandelions, chard or other greens may be used in place of the spinach.
