B—10 WOMEN 'S FEATURE Bedtime Stories Hoot§iNearly Chokes. BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. EDDY FOX was not the only hunter abroad that night. Hooty the Owl was also abroad, hunting. You see, hz likes the night for hunting even better than Reddy does, and so every night he goes flying over the Green Meadows and the Green Forest on those great, silent wings of his, his wonderful eyes watching below for some one to catch. On this particular night he had had no better luck than Reddy, and it just ‘happened that he, too, had thought of that particular farm to which Reddy had gone. Hooty had alighted on the peak of the barn. You know, Houty’s method reaily not to perches on some high place, and there he ‘watching with those great eyes, w! are especially suited for night. He watches for his savage hunting cail. which is al- ‘ways startling. It is sc startling that tly it makes one of the lm.h Nature’s Canadian Red Trout. BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY. NGLERS will assure you that the red trout, found in the cold waters north of the St. Lawrence and tributary to it, should be classed among the most active and handsome of American game fish. Now this is a big statement to make about any of Nature's Children, | because, sooner or later, some one is bound to come along and demand proof of our claim. At one time ardent fishermen in- sisted red trout were bottom feeders, and for this reason refused to rise to the fly. Time has shown this theory to be false, anglers having proved that red trout are overjoyed to take the fly. This trout is trim and handsome, that the red trout resents with vim and vigor the indignity of being hauled in at the end of a line. He| realizes his mistake at once and | makes heroic efforts to escape. When an angler has a red trout a | foot or more long to handle, he has & good chance to prove his own skill. Once in a while the trout leaps clear and the fisherman gets a view of the | dark brown back that has a beautiful iridescent, bluish glint in the sun.| ‘The flesh of this trout is pink and de- licious, and I have the word of an authority that it is tender. Like all trout, wherever found, they are chased in their own abode by snakes, minks, weasels, otters and raccoons, who are not only expert fishermen but swimmers as well. It behooves the trout to be on guard at all times. No wonder he is such an artful dodger. Large water snakes are among the trout’s most nggrmlve' foes. It is almost unbelievable how many fish one snake can comfortably digest. hold and Besides, there are the snapping turtles, whose hunting abilities in the water are well known. They lie in the mud with only their heads ex- posed, but they can stretch their necks forward with lightning-like speed and rarely miss their trout. KN OVER BABYS BOOY In Rash and Very Red. Relieved After Using Cuticura. “After my baby was born, ec- zema broke out all over her body. It came outin a rash and was very red. It caused constant irrita- tion and loss of sleep so that I had to put gloves on her to prevent scratching. I could mot bathe her. startle some one into running, and that he, Hooty, might ewoop in ahead of Reddy and make :he catch. So Hooty remained motionless and watched. He saw Reddy finally go over to fhe open shed back of the house and peuse just cutside. He wondered if Reddy would go in. If he did he might startle & Rat or & Mouse into running out. Seo Hooty leaned forward just a little, with his eyes fixed on that place where Reddy had disappeared. He did hope he would see & Mouse or a Rat come out. For a few mcments nothing hap- pened. Then Hooty saw something that made him lean forward just & little more. He saw a Cat enter that shed. It was hardly a minute later, in fact, it was hardly half a minute : i g I slgf : F g SE ‘ 8 il 33. isg g HH Lo B 2 Children Then there are the long-legged | birds, that stand knee-deep in the quiet waters, gazing down into the | clear depths and peering around the | submerged tree roots. They spear the ’ luckless trout with their sharp beaks, | | and, with s toss into the air, the fish | comes down head first into the wait- ing mouth below. Baby trout have a hectic time evad- ing frogs and other enemies, who wait in ambush for the happy little fellows who frisk along with not a thought of the danger close by. While our talk started out to be only on the Canadian red trout, it may not be out of order to remind you | that the enemies of all our game fish are becoming entirely too aggressive. In fact, something will have to be done about it, and any suggestions | will be greatly appreciated. (Copyright. 1035.) THE EVENING Who Are You?
