ways of using new dresses, and and after you have cut out the mate- rial for a new dress you can use bits of material that would otherwise be thrown away from which to cut the strips for the cord covering. For fine cording of the sort that is used to serve as loops to go over small buttons to hold cuffs in position you will need strips not more than a half inch wide. Tney should be cut on the bias of the material. Usually only small lengths of cording are needed, and it is better not to piece the strips, as they are likely to be bunched. But if this is n . make a small seam, open and press weil with a warm iron. Now fold over the strips of material and seam so that you have a slot just large enough for the cord you intend to use. Trim the edges a quarter of an inch from the line of stitching. For fine cording you can use soft twine of the sort used by the grocer.

Never, neve: T say You know there isn't any way. BOBBY COON. Bobby Coon, like most of his neigh- bors, has more than once been in a tight place—such a tight place that there has seemed to be no hope at all. But Bobby long ago learned that the most foolish thing that one can do is | to give up hope. Now, in one of the | tightest places he ever had been in, he | clung to hope. | “They won't get me! They won't get | me!” he kept saying over and over to himself, trying to believe it. Every time he said it it seemed to give him g‘e‘w strength and put new speed into legs. Even so, Bobby was in a bad way. A dog with a good nose, a very good nose, was_barking on his trail and, because Bobby was 5o fat and heavy, that dog was gaining on him. Bobby wouldn’t have worried about this had it not been for the two hunters who were following | the dog. He could escape the dog by | climbing a tree, but he knew that this | was just what the hunters wanted him | to do. If he didn't do this the dog | would catch him soon. This would not be so bad if the dog had been alone, for Bobby is a good fighter, but the hunters would be sure to catch up, and that would be the end of the fight and of Bobby. Bobby knew it. As he ran he kept trying to think of | some place where he would be safe from those hunters as well as the dog, but the ledges deep in the Green For- est were the only places he could think of, dnd they were too far away. In the ledges were caves and winding passages where not even the dog could follow and where the hunters could not pos- sibly get him out. He must think of some nearer place of safety. So, while Bobby was making the very best use of his legs, he was at the same time using his wits. He missed no opportunity to mix his trail, so as to bother and delay the dog, and all the time he kept going over in his mind all the hollow trees and hollow stumps and hollow logs and other hiding places not too far away for him to reach, hoping that he might think of one that would promise-at least some degree of safety. He was more and more in despair, but still he clung | )tf. Lhupe, He would do that to the very | All the time Bobby felt that some- thing was wrong, terribly wrong. Where was Farmer Br ?

By keeping hunters away from that art of the Green Forest, they had made | it seem safe for those who lived there. This was why Bobby had not thought it ne to be so watchful and careful and fearful as he would have been otherwise. He had not felt that he needed to be constantly on guard. Now, with no warning at all, these hunters had been allowed to enter the Green Forest to hunt him. It was hard to believe that Farmer Brown and Farmer Brown's Boy would do such a thing. But here were the hunters and here he was running for his life in the very place where he had felt so safe. It wasn't fair.

Having made the seam, fasten the end of the cord to a hairpin or thread it to a rib- bon runner or a large blunt needle. Run the needle or hairpin through one end of the cording and then push it down through the slot so that when the needle is drawn out at the other end of the slot in the material the seam is turned in and the cord ‘is threads through the slot. If you like you may first turn the stitched material right side out and then run the cord through it, but It is easier to take both processes at the same time.

Add one cupful of salt, four tablespoonfuls of lemon juice, half a teaspoonful of ta- basco sauce and half a teaspoonful of finely chopped chives. Mix well and serve in cocktail glasses.

At the Better Shops emo-flex ‘Toronto - London Why Husbands and Wives Are “Mis- understood” DorothyDix Perhaps It Is Eternal Riddle That Sexes Are to Each Other That Keeps Up Fascination They Have for One Another. | FJUSBANDS and wives do not understand each other because they belong | to different sexes. No matter how much a man and woman love, they al- | ways remain profound mysteries to each other. They can live together for 50 years without ever really getting acquainted. Experience teaches a wife in the course of time that her husband is likely to act in a certain way under certain conditions, but she hasn’t any idea why he does it Nor can any husband ever foretell which way his wife is likely to jump. She always keeps him guessing. No man, for instance, knows why his wife cries when she is glad, nor why, when she wants to spend a pleasant evening at the theater, she picks out a sobby, three-handkerchief drama. Nor can he understand how a woman can | actually enjoy poor health and get a real kick out of a secret sorrow. Nor can a man understand that women get the same sort of reaction out of going shop- ping that men get out of a celebration and that when a woman wants to cele- brate a joy or forget a trouble, her first impulse is to go out and buy something. ‘Women cannot understand why men always want to be entertained and amused, nor why they are modbidly afraid of tears, nor why every time they have a headache they think they are stricken with a fatal malady and expect | everybody about them to act as if they were about to die. A woman can't | understand a man’s perpetual mania for change, nor why & man hates to dress | up, nor why his old coat and shoes are sacrosanct. And & woman can never, never understand why & man who is in command of an army, or at the head of a big corporation, acts like a spotled baby at home. It is because men and women do not understand each other and have not each other’s scale of values that they make so many blunders in dealing with each other. A man, for example, deals with his wife as he would with another man and to his amazement finds out that instead of making her per- fectly happy and being an ideal husband he is breaking her heart, and all be- cause he is expressing his affection in deeds instead of in words, His business partner wouldn't expect him to go areund-proclaiming how honest and efficient he was. Nor would a man friend expect him always to be | telling him what a true and faithful friend he was, but a woman can never be- lieve in a man’s love unless he is forever repeating his vows of devotion and assuring her that she is the. only woman in the world to him. And no matter how much & husband does for his wife, she always doubts his affection unless he is constantly assuring her of it. ‘Men whose lives are filled with big things can never understand the stress that women put on little things. Why s it a crime to forget an anniversary. ‘Why a woman who has a charge account at the florist's and confectioner’s, and could buy them both out if she wanted to, must have an overworked husband burden his mind with having a bunch of roses or a box of chocolates sent to her. | (Copyright, 1930.)
