He sat in the dear old Briar-patch dreaming of a pair of soft, limpid eyes that he had had just a glimpse of in the moonlight the night before, eyes that he knew had been watching him and that when he saw them were filled with admira- tion. Whose they were he didn't know and he wanted # know. This much he did know—they were the eyes of a Jady Rabbit. He hadn't said anything about them to little Mrs. Peter. No, indeed. He hadnt once mentioned them. When she had asked where he had besn he £aid nowkere in particular and began | to talk abcut something else. Now he | was dreaming of thos> eycs and impa- | tiently waiting for the coming of dusk and a chance to steal eway to visit the | Old Pasture again. He tried to make himself believe that it was merely curi- | osity that made him want to go back, and that he would be satisfied just to | find out who it was who was’ living there beside Old Jed Thumper. But this wasn't true and he knew it. He wanted to see that pair of soft eyes again and be looked at with admira- tion in the same way as before. Now as he dreamed of them he was sure that they were the scftest eyes he ever had seen. He quite forgot that | this was just what he thought of the eyes of liitle Miss Fuzzytail before she became Mrs. Pet: So the first chance he got in the dusk, when Mrs. Peter wasn't looking. he slipped out of the dear old Briar- patch and away he went, lipperty-lip- | perty-lip straight to the Old Pasture. | He didn't waste any time looking for Old Jed Thumper this time, but made straight for the place where he had those eyes and knew those eyes and make himself look as fine as pos- sible.

Because no man and woman even if they are married and love each other, ever really understand each other or comprehend the motives that sctuate each other, and so they never know how to put the right value on what they are told. G’THEY may make mountains out of molehills and read significance to trifies that have no meaning and brood over things that have stuck in their memories like cockle burrs and generally upset the apple- cart that would have rolled on smoothly enough if they hadn't known too much. “THERE are many reasens why husbands and wives should not tell each other eversthing. One is that it does away with all illusion. Tt is the mystery about each other that attracts men and women to each other, and husbands and wives destroy this at their peril. The youth and the ‘maiden are exploring each other's minds and hearts and finding out what each thinks and believes, what tastes and desires of each are. Each is trying to get a mental picture of the background of the other’s life. “The clever man and woman keep pep in married life' by never fur- nishing each other with a complete chart of their mental reactions. ¢¢ A NOTHER reason why husbands and wives should not tell each other everything is because it leads to boredom. When a man or woman has turned his or her mind out like a shallow drawer, the interest is all over. It is done. Finished. No companies are so stupid as those whose every thought we can anticipate, whose every opinion we have heard over and over again and whose very words we could repeat before they opened their lips. “So,” T said to the bride, “scrap this dangerous idea of telling your husband everything. Tell him what he will like to hear and keep the balance to yourself. Tell him how much you love him and how wonder- ful he is. Tell him when you make a good bargain and save $5, but keep mum as an oyster when you waste your money on foolishness. Call at- tention to your biscuits when they are light as a feather, but when they go flat on you chuck them into the garbage can and say nothing about * it. So shail you celebrate your golden wedding day and be esteemed by your husband as a perfect wife.” DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1931) Coffee Custard. ‘ Steamed Dark Pudding.

Auburn jand gold hairs are mixed with brown (and by taking proper care of the hair these various tints show up, giving brown hair beautiful lights and glints. Many of my brown-haired readers ask | about henna rinses. They are very good | when properly used. For chestnut | brown hair—the brown hair that has |ln it much of auburn—one may use a pure red Egyptian henna rinse shampoo. For hair that is brown with- | out much auburn one may use a com. pound of brown “henna.” Used in tI | way I am describing below, this metal- |lUc dye is not harmful. The brown | “henna,” too, comes in different shades: |for dark brown hair choose & darker shade and for light brown hair a light one. To make a henna shampoo which will bring out the hidden beauties of brown hair, but which will not give it a dyed look, the following method may be used: “Choose a shade of henna suited to your hair and put one table- spoonful of this powder into an enamel bowl and slowly mix in it one pint of bolling water. Stir with a wooden spoon until dissolved and strain through mus- 1in, let the mixture cool and add a cup- | ful'of a mild shampoo liquid. Pour into | & glass jar. Now shampoo the hair as usual with a regular shampoo. After two or three latherings, rinse well and then rub the henna shampoo into the hair. Work up a good lather and leave this on the hair for about five minutes. Then rinse just enough coloring to make brown hair truly lovely. ‘There are now on the market com- mercial rinses for all shades of hair that are harmless and simpler to than those I have just described.
