Lvorues Of Fashion ., THE GENTLEMAN WATCH YOUR COAT AND HAT figures worked out for the end- to-end layers have supplied us with & set from which we've deduced that the average American man replaces his overcoat every sec- ond season. If he laid them end-to- end, he'd notice that the old benny isn't fit for much use after the second season. We suggest that if he would pull up the slack for one year, he'd find he always had two overcoats fit for wear. If you can follow our sug- gestion, the two overcoats shown on our commuter friends would be a STA’HSTICIANS who get all the good start toward a currently fashion- able overcoat wardrobe. The blue double-breasted Guard's coat is first choice for those who require an over- coat for business and evening wear, while the town ulster in Glen plaid is best for those who need a practical coat for both business and sport wear or for those whose business keeps them outdoors most of the time. In selecting accessories for wear with your overcoat—hat, gloves and muf- fler should reflect either the formality or nonchalance of the overcoat model and fabric itself. Por wear with a Guard’s model overcoat or any overcoat that tends toward a formal appearance, a derby hat is desirable. With it, light- colored gloves, such as, 8 buff hand- stitched chamois, are most comple- mentary to a dark overcoat, and the selection of a foulard muffier, prefer- ably on a light ground, is likewise recommended. ‘The derby may be worn with either of the two overcoats we've shown above, but is not sug- gested for wear with evening clothes. The homburg hat has an air of . formality that is particularly adapted for an overcoat chosen for business wear. It may be worn with the blue Guard’s coat for semi-formal evening wear. For use with the homburg hat and for wear with the ulster type of woat, we've shown a silk foulard or erepe paisley pattern muffler, and & new type of hand-stitching used on & Hight-colored pigskin slip-on glove. ‘When worn with looser-fitting coats of the raglan shoulder or heavy fleece ulster variety, the snap brim hat is & natural companion. The color of the overcoat will dictate the color of the hat, although a medium brown will undoubtedly serve for any of the overcoat colorings. With an overcoat of this type, & wool muffier in a dis- trict check or tartan plaid is much in keeping, while gloves with heavy welt tops and rugged appearance complete the cold weather accessories with the desired nonchalance.

Bobby Coon, tired from long running and sick from the smoke that had filled the passages down in the ledge through which he had crawled, frightened and some- what in despair, had squeezed through s small opening into & little room where as yet there was-no smoke, and instantly had dropped down on the floor, too used up to go farther. Now he quite blocked that opening through which he had squeezed and so he block out the smoke that was beginning to work into that passage. - s 3 BOBBY CAUTIOUSLY POKED HIS HEAD OUT FOR A LOOK AROUND. It was just the right tHing to do, the very thing to keep the air sweet and free of smoke in that little cave, but Bobby didn't know this when he did it. It must have been Old Mother Na- ture looking after him who prompted him to do this. She has many ways of looking after her children and prompting them to do just the right things. Then the little folk are said to act by instinct. Anyway, Bobby Coon did just the right thing this time, and after a time the hunters who were trying to smoke him out gave up and went away. For a long time, in fact until almost day- light, Bobby lay there, too used up to think of moving. When at last he did feel sufficlently rested he began to take an interest in this strange place he was in. He never before had been 50 far in these ledges. In fact, he had only once before been there and that was long ago. He first started back the way he had entered, but the smell of smoke lin- gered there and he didn't like it. So he returned to seek another way out and soon found another passage that twisted and turned and wound about, but which gradually led upward. The air grew fresher, and by and by, Bobby saw & spot of light far ahead. When he reached it, it proved to be an open- ing out onto a little shelf of rock. . It was very like the place where he had entered to escape the Dog and hunters, but it wasn't that place. Bobby cautiously poked his head out for a look around, then hurriedly with- drew it. Standing on another shelf just above and to one side was some one he hadn't expected to see. He had & neighbor. It was & neighbor he hadn't counted on, a neighbor who was at that minute having a bad fit of temper. It was Yowler the Bobcat. Yes, sir, it was Yowler himself. Yowler's home was in those ledges. He had been out hunting all night, and not with the best of success. This in itself was enough to make him feel out of sorts, Returning home, he had discovered that during his absence there had been visitors there. There was the smell of Dog. And there was the hated smell of Man. All this was bad enough, but there was worse in store. When he started to enter the cave which was his home he found the dreaded smell of smoke in it. There was no smoke itself, but the smell of it was still strong. He remembered how once, when he was young, hunters had tried to smoke him out of an- other ledge where he then lived, He snarled and spat as he looked about suspiciously. Had they found this home of his and again been trying to smoke him out? (Copyright, 1936,) Winning Contract BY THE FOUR ACES, (David Burnstine. Merwin D.

Nature’s WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1936. Children JAGUAR - (Felis hernandezii) BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY. OLDING the record of being the largest of all the spotted cats, the jaguar is next in size to the tiger, but holds first place in flerceness, It ranges from Louisiana to Texas and south- ward into Mexico, This powerful and beautiful cat comes into the United States as an invader from Mexico, and it is the only species that wanders across the border. ‘These creatures prefer the dense forests, where there is an abundance of water and food. In Florida, where there are deer and other wild ani- mals in the forests, there were regions that the jaguar could not pass. So it hunted in the forests of Mexico, Louisiana and Texas. The jaguar and the cougar are known as “Lion and Tiger of America.” They can climb, if it suits their purpose, and spend much of their time in the trees. In Texas the jaguar hunts for deer, cattle, peccaries, turkeys, fish and turtles. It seems to prefer the larger animals, but does not pass by the smaller ones. Shortly after sundown ‘the hunter comes out to dine, Why he finds it best to make such a noise about his hunger is a matter of opinion. Is it to frighten the wits out of victims, who may in their terror give themselves away? Or is it the con- ceit of the beast, warning all that it is coming their way. It roars like s lion and the place seems filled with the fearful sound. ‘When they go out courting the din is particularly loud. The battles are fought among rivals until one of the combatants drops from exhaustion or death. The female is nearing her third birthday when she weds. She is smaller than her mate. She has beautiful twin babies that have glossy coats that resemble those worn by their parents. Both father and mother are intensely interested in their offspring and also in their edu- cation. When the babies are three weeks old, they are permitted to fol- low their mother, but they are pro- BORDEN'S CHEESES tected and guided in the ways of the world until they reach their first birthday. They are not fully grown until they are five years old. They have been known to live to be well over 20 years. Throughout their hunting grounds you will find many trees bearing the mark of their sharp claws. They use these for cleaning and manicuring their nails, not them. ‘The color of the coat is & brownish- golden yellow. Underneath it 1is white, spotted with black. The head, neck and shoulders are covered with black spots. The body has large black rosettes. There is a large black spot at the mouth.- The lips, throat and underparts have more white. The tail is ringed in black. The whiskers are long and stiff and often quiver when the hunter is stalking his prey. ‘When the weather is very rainy, the Jaguar forsakes his cave and climbs a tree. He lies along the stout branch where he can enjoy the sun when it does come out and is unseen by the passing neighbors. While the night is the chosen time for hunting, the Jaguar-does not permit opportunities ‘w slip by during the day, if he knows t. Though this hunter looks serious minded and his actions are anything but kindly, he is known to be fond of play and in his youth delighted in sport, as all members of the cat fam- ily seem to be.
