It was their second home. | In a great storm one Winter the | tree in which they had first built had | blown down. Farmer Brown and Farmer Brown's Boy had set a telegraph pole near where the tree had stood and on the top of this had securely fastened | an old cartwheel. The Plungers had | been quick to understand that this was intended for them. On the cartwheel | they had laid a platform of sticks and | on this built a nest. Year by year they | had added to it until now it was a huge affair. Sticks, cornstalks, stalks of | weeds, some grass and other things were used. e = ’;i.‘a —~— ),;l SHE T = = “YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY GRACKLE IN THE WOODS.” It was down near the base of this| great mass that Mrs. Creaker the Grackle had found a place among the | sticks wherein she could very easily| build a nest of her own. She had politely | told Mrs. Plunger what she would like | to do and Mrs. Plunger had said that| she had no objections, none at all. So Mrs. Creaker returned to Creaker and | in great excitement told him all about it But Creaker was filled with doubts. | He didn't like the idea at all. “We never did such a thing before, 80 why should we do it now?” he de- manded. “There has to be a first time for everything, silly,” retorted Mrs. Creaker. “The trouble with you is you are afraid. "That is silly, for there is nothing to be afaird of here, but there is plenty to be afraid of in the places we usually nest. We never knew who might visit | us there. But here we will have no The only packaged American Cheese pasteurized that has M natural flavor | sticks of the foundation he decided that row of these tufts at top of them. The important thing to observe is to have identical colors on both rug and coverlet, and to use the identical de- sign for both. A good arrangement of wreaths on the quilt or spread is: One wreath in the center and one near each corner with one full blown flower be- tween wreaths. For a rug in round or oblong shape use one design in center. Finish edges or ends with a line of color a few inches from edges or enas. (Oopyright, 1933.) Thorr.ton visitors. Plunger and Mrs. Plunger allow no one who can harm their eggs or babies to come anywhere near. So while they are protecting their own they will at the same time be protect- ing ours. When we leave our babies to go hunt for food we n will have to worry for fear some enemy will find them while we are away. Even the biggest of their own relatives respect the Plungers and keep away. I am going to begin building at once. If you don’t want to come along and help-you can go look for another mate. You're not the only Grackle in the woods.” With a toss of her head Mrs. Grackle fiew off to get the first material for the new nest. Creaker sat around | rather disconsolately watching to see if she really meant what she said. When he saw her fly up to the nest of the Plungers and start work among the she hadn’t been fooling, and when she made her next trip to the Green Meadows in quest of dry dead grass he followed her, picked up some grass and then rather reluctantly followed her back and up to the great nest of the Ospreys or Fish Hawks, as they are commonly called. Creaker kept looking up suspiciously to see if the owners of the great nest objected, but as they paid no attention to him he gained confidence, and by the time the nest was finished he was as enthusiastic as was Mrs. Creaker. The nest was tucked away among the foundations of the bigger nest and Creaker was forced to admit that never had they had a nest better hidden or more securely placed. About the time the first eggs were laid two of their former neighbors in the pines discovered where they were nesting and decided that they, too, would try the Osprey Apartments. They found a place on the other side where they could build, and as there were no objections on the part of| Plunger and Mrs. Plunger they soon | were as comfortably fixed as were Creaker and Mrs. Creaker. i So it was that' what had been just a single great home for the Plungers became the Osprey Apartments, ac- commodating all told no less than three families, one of Ospreys and two of Grackles. And, as Mrs. Creaker had hoped, no one for a long time knew that any but the great Fish Hawks lived there. It was, as she had said it would be, the safest nest they ever had had. and Creaker had to listen many | times to “I told you so.” Baked Salt Mackerel.

BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. One of the Page cousins was going to California. Another was considering an ocean trip, while a third was plan- ning on the fair at Chicago. They had met at Nancy's home to discuss travel etiquette. “Before you were married, Nancy, you used to travel a lot. Tell me, didn’t you learn what to take and what to leave behind?” “And didn’t you learn some way to get to your destination without looking like a wreck?” “I must have learned some tricks, girls, because the first time I ever saw Peter was when I got off the train after a cross-country trip. And see what re- sult that first sight had. “I learned to take certain beauty things and what was perhaps equally important I learned what to carry them in. I never trusted to odd bottles and jars tucked into corners of my case. “I purchased a kit with jars having screw tops. I carried a variety of things, stoppers which were in turn covered by screw tops. I carried a variety of things but avoided any greasy creams. I knew I wanted cleansing lotion, eau de Co- logne, a tube of cream soap. a liquid powder base which needs little powder | to be applied. “1 had a tiny traveling atomizer, & hair net or cap which went over my | hair every night, a three-ply folding mirror which could be placed on a win- dow ledge or sill, and a simple manicure kit, always packed for traveling.

In fact, I used that daily on boat or train. “I tried to avold bulky containers. And I remembered that I could dupli- cate most of my beauty preparations in any city in the United States.

Milady Beautiful Exeessive Perspiration. CERTAIN amount of sweating all over the body is normal and helps greatly to body temperature. The sive perspiration that I wish to speak of is not normal. Some - ers complain of wet, clammy hands dictation at the office or ing in the evening. Their feet also perspire profusely, ruining their hoslery and shoes. . Cases of this sort may be relieved by the use of the cure involves more thorough treat ment. Usually, if not alwsyg marked nervousness accompanies this trouble. underlying cause, and when this is found and remedied both nervousness and excessive sweating will gradually disappear. When, however, a physical cause cannot be discovered, one must look for the source of this trouble in the mind and emotions. There are many women (and men, too) who appear to be perfectly sound physically, but who are exceedingly nervous and lacking in self-control. In cases like the pa- tient must be her own doctor and exert will power to change the mental habits that are destroying her beauty, com- fort and happiness.
