WOMEN'’S FEATURES. Nature’s Fence Swift—(Sceloporus Undulatus).

After an experience or two like this, dry, sandy pinelands of the South- eastern United States fairly teem with occupy one fallen log, and a day spent inspecting an old fence or tumbling wall is & gold mine to a nature col- lector. Virginia and Maryland have some enchanting fences and close to the highway, too. Once you learn to watch for swift-moving shadows, you can spot them and wonder how you | missed them before. These travelers are clad in dull | brown or gray, with irregular wavy transverse bands of black, and there are, as a rule, blue patches on the “tummy.” Peep under the chin of Children your lizard, and if you find a black spot inclosing a blue one and two large bluish patches on the abdomen —you can call your new pet Johnny. No chin decorations and little or no blue trimmings—better name it Jenny. The art of catching one of these swifts is a thrilling one, that may startle you extremely, until you learn mitted to creep up to where you are confident a lightaing grab will be suc- cessful. Your hand is raised and comes down swiftly. There is nothing under it but bark, The swift is & few feet away, with a come-hither look in his eye and you follow. Several at- tempts and still no lizard. Then you have a brilliant idea. You will place your hand just in advance of the clever creature and beat him to it. Looking in your hand, you see a wriggling object, and racing up the tree trunk is an abbreviated lizard. He decided it was far better to go tailless for a while, rather than be & captive. What is of little concern to him is that the second apendage will be less handsome. The experience is far less disconcerting to him than to you. 0ld rail fences and fallen logs are the places to look for the eggs. They have thin, paper-like shells that dent easily. Take them home, place them in damp sphagnum moss, in & room with moderate temperature, and in six to eight weeks the three-eighths to half- an-inch eggs will yield a fine family of lizard pets. They love sunshine, and flourish on insects and meal- worms, in case you want to know. (Copyright. 1935.) Who Are You?

He was captain of the renowned “Four Horsemen” team, now disbanded, and has won 24 national champion- ships since 1924. These articles are based on the Sims system, which includes the onme-over-one principle, which the Sims group of players was the first to employ and develop. The Last Straw. T WAS a sad, mournful group that gathered to see Jack off at the boat. Even though we had argued for hours, a few of us made one last desperate attempt to dissuade him. Hopeless. We should have known better. “No,” he said firmly. Beri-Beri tonight.” * *‘Beri-Ber{' isn't an island,” ven- tured some one. “It's a disease.” “Very well,” conceded Jack. ‘“Make it Pago-Pago.

When the dummy went down, business brightened con- siderably. In fact, he tentatively be- gan to figure up the value of a double game.

Jack trumped the second spade in the dummy, and now had to decide whether West held two clubs or two diamonds. He finally decided on the two-diamond holding, drew trumps, and found out that there was a slight miscalculation somewhere. Dummy | was dead, and the diamond suit was | divided 4-1. West was given a chance. Jack courteously pressed him for the reasoning behind his defense. After watching West’s vacuous smile for some seconds, Jack went upstairs to (Copyri 1935.)

He is smarter than at first I thought he was. That was a smart thing to do, follow that Dog who had had enough of fighting with him, but who would be likely to keep Reddy Fox away.” Sitting very straight on his door- | step Johnny Chuck watched Flip the Terrier limp homeward, and & short | distance behind him the other Chuck. ‘They were bound to go past and very near one of Johnny's old homes. He didn't think of that at first. When he did think of it he guessed right away what would happen. | “When that fellow sces that old he muttered. “He will see right away that it is about as safe a place as he is likely to find in a long time, and he will have sense enough to know a good thing when he sees it.

Stories at last he happened to think of Polly Chuck. Then jealousy began to stir up Johnny's feelings. It was silly, Of course, it was silly. He told himself that, but it didn’t do one bit of good, not a bit. “Polly may not be awake yet. She wasn't when I left up there,” said he to himself. “He probably doesn't even know that she lives up that way. 8till, he is bound to go looking around and find the house where Polly spent the Winter. Yes, sir, he will find out she is there, and if she lsn't awake now he will be right on hand when she does come out. Of course, she wouldn’t give him a look. We have lived together so long that she wouldn't think of having anything to do with anybody else.” He comforted himself with this thought for a little while, but only a little while. Then he got to think- ing about that other Chuck and his thoughts grew more and more jealous. “I wish he wasn't quite so big thought he. “He is as big as me an he's strong, I found that out in that we had. And he's younger. Yes, fig! sir, he's younger. Of course, that won't | K make any difference with Polly. Yet —well, I don’t like the idea of that fellow hanging around where she is! 1 ought to be up there to keep him from annoying her. That is where I ought to be.” The more he thought about the matter and talked to himself about it, the more jealous he became, yet he wouldn't have admitted to any one that he was jealous. He wouldn't even admit it to himself. Jealous people are like that. They fool nobody but themselves. Johnny Chuck was jealous of that other Chuck. There was no question about that, but he would have been very indignant had any | one hinted at such a thing to him He would have denled it flatly, and in denying it, would have made it/ even more clear that it was true. He didn't sleep well that night, and he was out even beforee jolly, round, bright Mr. Sun had kicked off his rosy blankets and begun his daily climb up in the blue, blue sky. “I haven't anything in particular W do, so I may as well go see if Polly Chuck has come out yet” he mut- tered, and, making sure that the way was clear, started off.

Try it. If it works, keep on using it. If it doesn't, con- sult your own discretion as to its continued use. Buppose there is a certain person we shall call A. You hate this A to the extent that your hate con- jures up means of redress which you WOMEN’S FEATURES. feel you should carry out. At the same time you know that you may be sorry if you so employ such means leading to their inevitable outcome. ‘The advice is to switch your thoughts to some one you do not and cannot hate. The theory is that you may graduslly substitute love for hate. That is, if you do the switch- ing immediately on acquiring the hate, you will succeed. And then you do it every time the occasion demands. I do not offer this substitute busi- ness as a cure. However, Benjamin Franklin once said something along the same lines: If angry, count 10; if very angry, count 100. No less a per- B—13 sonage than William James thought that you might get over your peeves by going to the wood pile and split- ting wood. My own recipe is this: Don’t expect too much of human nature. And you will eventually learn to do your think- ing before you are required to do your disliking.
