Can you think of any greater treat, my dear?” Mrs. Eagle admitted that she couldn't, and there was a gleam in her eyes that showed that she was interested, very much interested. “Those baby Antelope are a little way out on the Broad Prairie, hidden in a_patch and Mrs. Speedfoot have been trying to continued King Eagle. . I missed those youngsters. although I looked through that brush several times. That is why I need help. Two may succeed where one may fail."” “How do you know those babies are hidden ther demanded Mrs. Eagle a bit suspiciously. King Eagle told her all that he had seen. He described the fight between the Coyotes and Mrs. Fleetfoot and how determined she had been not to allow them in that patch of brush. “You know very well, my dear, that she never MENU FOR A DAY.

Tllustrations by Mary HE most famous trappers in the world of insects are the trap- door spiders and the ant-lions. Those which build snares and spread ground nets are close runners up for a little reputation. The web spider sets a most intri- cate trap low over the ground. She hides nearby and awaits her prey. The stickiness of the web entangles the feet of the unwary and she dines on her_victim at her leisure The trap-door spider not only builds # hinged-door, but she has hidden hall- ways and places of concealment. Should one fall into her trap larger.than she expected, she watches from behind her silken drapery and when the oppor- tunity presents itself, she lassoes him with Topes of silk or stabs him. When he is secured, she proceeds to dine There_are t who use the lovely rose or flower as a handy trap. Crouch- ing behind a petal or lurking beneath a leaf, the hunter is ready to spring upcn fhe unsuspeeting bee that comes to the blossom to draw nectar for her- self or babies. Deep down into the flower's cup the bee pushes her head, and when she withdraws it, Mrs. Spider jumps upon her, giving her a stab with her stiletto. The victim drops to the ground, the spider lets herself down with a rope of silk and begins to sip the nectar from the unconscious one. After getting all she wants, she tosses the empty body carelessly aside and re- turns to await another nectar seeker. The baby of the tiger beetle sits ‘n his own doorway. He looks innocent enough, If you did not know of his villainous intentions. He catches his prey and. drops it behind him into his deep hallway or banqueting room. The poor trapped ones are huddled together in a heap until the hunter decides to call it a day. Then he consumes his catch and afterward carefully disposes of all fragments by digging a shallow trench nearby and burying all evidence of his erime. There is the spider who uses the home of the mole.

The modern housekeeper has come that there are other ways of cooking meat than by boiling, roasting or broiling, all of which processes call for high heat. She has come to know that long, slow cooking at a gentle heat best conserves the nutritive elements of meat and the flavors that render it most agreeable to us. It is this method that the earthen casserole, with its close-fitting cover, has made possible for us. The casse- role has other advantages. It is a serv- ing as well as & cooking dish, and be- cause it retains heat for a long time, food for the late or tardy dinner may be kept in good condition in it. The casserole, too, is & friend of the woman who must be cook and hostess, too. While tuit cup or tomato juice cocktail or soup is serving, the main course of the dinner, in the casserole in a cool oven, remains ready to serve and may be brought to the table with- out any additional preparation when the first course or courses are fin- ished.
