From earliest infancy the child has a “cross” period. Again and again mothers write: “From 4 to 6 in the afternoon the baby is so irritable. She ! cries most of the time.” That's the fatigue period of the day for infants, and it continues to be the fatigue period for all children. The worst conflicts, the temper tantrums, | the " tnexplicable naughtiness come at the end of the day. Mothers' temper: | are at the flaming point, childre tempers are ready for the lighting, and the inevitable result is a senseless con- flagration. ! “There is strength in being armed against irritations when one knows the exact reason for them. Adults have a bundle of ready excuses for them- selves when they are tired. “I know I'm cross, but I'm just dead. Don't | mind what I say you have no idea what I've been through today.” We | respect such excuses. They are valid | One isn’t tactful or patient or under- standing when one is fatigued. have their “days” and their exhaustions with the inevitable fatigue. Bedtime is not the time to insist that son pick up every single one of his toys if he shows & disposition to pick up a few of them. It is not the time to argue with daughter about finishing that last spoonful of cereal with “hurry up now, or mother can't give you y Tired bebies can't be reasoned with. One needs to skate carefully when it is plain that the children’s moods are captious. When the baby cries regularly from 4 to 6 and mother knows positively that it is not hunger, as it so easily may be, try the enchantment of an air bath that lasts half or three-quarters of an hour before bedtime. ~With baby's clothes stripped off to the diaper, lct him roll and wriggle and push himself about on a wide bed in a very warm room, until it is time to give him a brisk rub, & change of clothes, a fresh nightie {and finally his warm feeding. Those moments of complete freedom from | clothes and from handling will keep even the hungry baby happy and occu- | pied until bedtime has arrived. | " The child of 18 months and beyond | is too active to be kept on a bed. For | this child the cross period may be filled {in with a romp without clothes in a warm room, then a soothing, warm bath, the refreshment of warm, clean clothes. Lastly, give him his supper up- stairs, or down in the warm Kitchen, feel you may want them in|e YOUR BABY Al | But the excuses ought to be pulled {out to cover the poor youngsters who | | have wasted looking over the accumula- | tion, as you are sure to do when- T you clean up the closet, drawer or file where the things are kept. Also you have robbed yourself of just that much space (whatever it is) that the things occupy. » Often a disordered house could be kept orderly were it not for the space wasted on things kept for a rainy day. In the second case, it may be that after saving things for years, using | your time to look after them, and the orely needed space to store them in, you may find your purse is ample enough for you to buy new things more appropriate to your needs than the old thing could be. In speaking thus about saving things, there is no intention of sug- | gesting a reckless discarding of articles | whose_ primary use has been finished | The points of view have been given | with “the hope that the habit of | | hoarding things will be not be formed, | or if formed that it can be somewhat | | regulated. One of the ways of doing | the latter is to put articles to im- | mediate use, although perhaps for an entirely different one. Another way is to know when you save things just what purpose you in- |tend to put thom to, and save for an object. One thing in this line that comes immediately to mind is the sa ing of discarded stockings and gar- ments for making rugs. (Copyriziat, 1932.) LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE.

It had come about simply because Peter had been so curious to know where Jimmy was spending the Winter, which really was no business of his at all. He had followed Jimmy's rints in the snow, over to a hole that porch, and there he had exciting discovery that not Jimmy under that porch, but Jimmy. In lisiening to them as they sleepily quarreled, he had quite forgotten to watch for possible danger |and so_had been surprised by Reddy Fox. There had been nothing for him to do then but go under that porch himself, which was the last thing in the world he wanted to do. Now he was sit- ting as close to that entrance hole as he dared get, while just outside sat Reddy Fox in the moonlight. The hole was too small for Reddy to get through, which was one thing to be thankful for “You may as well come out now as later,” said Reddy. “Jimmy Skunk isn't asleep yet and is likely to discover you any minute, and when he does you'll come out fast enough. I am told that Jimmy is very short-tempered when he wakens from sleep in the Winter, and it won't make him any better-tempered to find that you have been spying on him.” Peter didn’t need to see Reddy to know that he was grinning as he said this.

Peter was filled with a great and growing doubt. “I wish I hadn't been so curious,” though Peter. “If I get out of this scrape I'll mind my own affairs and keep out of trouble. Yes, sir; I'll do just that. I'll stay at home n the dear old Briarpatch. I wonder if Jimmy and Mrs. Jimmy are really asleep. “You can't stay under there forever Peter, and when you do come out I'li be walting for you,” sald Reddy Fox You may as well come out now and have it over with.” Peter said nothing.

Whether Fido sprang from a wild species, & wolf or some other creature, we have been unable to find out. Even savages have had their dogs. Faithful and loving, even in the case where the dog has been so unfortunate as to become the companion of cruel masters, they are willing to risk their lives for them. In famous caves there are carvings which show faithful dogs standing beside their loved ones, and who has not known or heard of great deeds done by these humble friends? Today there are about 200 distinct breeds of dogs. Many are bred for spe- s. There is positive proof s brain has undergone a great change since the days when he ran wild. Now we see the dog ex- hibiting the most human qualities and intelligence among all our domestic animals. It is natural for the dog to run down his prey. That is what long, strong legs are for. His feet are padded in or- der that he may run easily. The claws are heavy and protect his feet as well as aid him in digging for game which insists on burrowimg in the ground. The great Newfoundland dogs are ex- pert swimmers and have toes which are webbed The iris of the dog’s eye is a lovely brown, but puppies usually have blue eyes. The pupil is round like the hu- man eye and accounts for the fact that dogs see much better in the daytime It is the nose that is so important. Their sense of smell and ability to fol- low & scent are remarkable. The soft, damp skin which covers the nose car- ries the secret in that dampness. The scent is conveyed to the wide nostrils which are at the most forward part of the face. When the dog lifts it head and “sniffs” the air, he is able to get information by way of scent which is beyond our understanding. The dog has a long, muscular body. A fat dog is unfitted for his work and is usually old or overfed. His coat of hair is coarse and is shed during the Summer months. When running, the dog stretches to its fullest length. He has several gaits, as running, walking, trotting, leaping and bounding. He crawls slowly when ashamed or afraid, but has a very different type of crawl- ing when in a happy mood. When fighting, the dog uses his which are very much like those | te wolf. With these tusks he seizes | his prey, shakes its life out or holds it while he tears it to bits. If the dog encounters & larger animal th i self he leaps against it. H: | watched a dog gnaw a bone? He will hold it securely with his front feet and with his long, canine teeth he tears the food, with his molars he cuts the meat o small pieces and then gulps the | chunks down, It has been thought that the reason dogs howl when they hear music is be- | cause way back, s ago, the dogs would set up a great vl and call the pack together. So when they hear mu- sic 1t is supposed to awaken in them memory of the dim past It has been proved that where a boy has had a dog he is far more willing to be law-abiding than the boy who has not had the joy and privilege of such faithful companionship. When a dog wishes to “talk” he has a sign language all his own. Should he wish to convey to you his great delight in see leaps about, giving s and squeals. O you. To beccme ac- h you he sniffs your cloth- tail to express his ap- proval. At ion his tail is. held stiff in the nd one ear is lifted. v angry he growls; afrald he whines. | (Copyrisht. 1932 | STAINLESS Same formula . . same price.
