He managed to lcad the Brookes Into it, and presently th found thamselves conversing with this strange person as though he were actually a famillar member of the household. Dinner was proceeding with as- tonishing ease. Billy had thawed to the point where he took up his fevorite amusement of teasing sisters. “By the way, Connie,” he asked, “have you dad's letter there?’ She produced the letter, and her brother read it with a solemn fac “Down here It saye. ‘Treat him as you would me’,” quoted Billy.

People who dellght in teasing Seldom are to others pleasing. —Peter Ralbit. Peter Rabbit, having started out to find out as much as possible about how his friends and neighbor of the Green Forest were making ready for the coming of winter, didn't hesitate to ask questions. Peter says that people too bashful never learn much. So having sald goodby to HapPy Jack the Gray Squirrel, Peter hurried over to where he saw Chal- tering Red Squirrel hard at work.

On very cold days, the ten- dency is to add more coal to the fire The hotter the fire, the more the jair is heated and the greedier it 1z |for water.

The thermometer should always be your guide in de- termining the amount of heat re- quired. The addition of molsture to the atmosphere can be accomplished more easily by maintaining a proper system of ventilation, As a matter of fact, the most effi- clent heating system would be ene which combines with a system of ventilation, one which adds molsture {to the dry alr. Peopls who are afraid to have their windows open in the winter frequently resort to another method in an attempt tn supply sufficient moisture, They make use of pans of water in the heated room and as long as there is water remaining in the pan they rest content, belleving that the air in the rooms {s sufficlently moist and go on stoking the furnace. This method of placing pans filled with water about the room, while not to be condemned, has not proved sufficiently effective to produce tha ,desired amount of comfort and ease. The best method of adding moisture {to heated air {s that of proper and sufficlent ventilation. Keep the air of your house and office this fall and during the winter morfths ahead as it has been during the summer, when the heat forced you to throw the windows open, Don't be a burrowing animal. Don't seal yourself up for the win- ter. Don't be afraid of a breath of fresh air. It you watch your thermometer and the ventilation of your home, you will need to pay far less attene tion to your coal biils and your doc- tor. ““Let the air and sunshine in” was not writtem for the summer months alone.
