Then he remembered that he was under an old barn. It was the first time he had ever been there. He grinned, as he remember- ed the foolish young dog who had threatened to attack him just out- side, and to whom he had given a lesson he wouldn't soon forget. But he stopped grinning when he re- membered the man with the ter- rible gun, whom he had seen com- ing toward that barn. “I wonder where that man is?" thought Jimmy. “I don’t know how long I've been asleep. He may be ‘waiting around outside. Well, if he is, he can wait. This is a perfectly good place under this old barn and I know there are rats and mice here. I'll do a little hunting and sce ‘what I can find.” 80 Jimmy began to hunt about. He heard faint squeaks and the rustling of tiny feet and his eyes brightened. Those sounds mice and young rats. Jimmy prowl- ed around and sniffed here and sniffed there and poked his nose into all sorts of places. By and by, over close to the hole through which he had entered, he jumped a young mouse, Now, Jimmy Skunk can move quickly, He doesn't do it often, but when there is a mouse within reach Jimmy can move quickiy.

The instant that mouse went through that opening there was a sharp metallic snap. It was a horrid sound. Yes, sir, it was a horrid sound! Jimmy Skunk stopped abruptly. He had a chilly feeling. That horrid snap gave him a queer feeling in the pit of his stomach. He knew what had made it. It was the sound made by the the jaws of a steel t been a frightencd little the same time.

I guessed that she would welcome a shift in our conversa- tional topic. “1 suppose it does, she returned, all her aversion to the sender of the telegram showing in her face. “Let me attend to it,” I suggest- ed. “I have his address.

Three Costumes For A Week-End Panty Bendel Chooses a Suit, Evening Gown and Ensemble, lmmuwhmwmuthemtmnnmflmnddmlcuhmpny.hfihfi.—& formal evening gown; right the tweed traveling suit, BY HENRI BENDEL New York, Oct. 18.—The week- end house party for the big football game is one of the most important dates in a young girl's I The kind of time she has de- pends largely upon the clothes she carries along. Girls in their teens are apt to have a self-conscioas- neas that can be overcome if they are sure they look their best and that other guests are casting ad- miring glances at the various cos- tumes they wear. ‘Three changes of costume are enough for a week-end, if a girl chooses wisely. And of course & topcoat, preferably of fur. First there is the suit or en- semble she travels in, which in some ways is the most important, since she wears it when she makes her first impression on the party. And every woman knows how im- portant first impressions are! - May Be Semi-Formal 1t she chooses this with taste and discretion, it will be formal enough to give her a feeling of pertect grooming and appropriate- ness when she arrives and yet snappy enough to make her the cynosure of envious eyes when she wears it Saturday morning for whatever informal entertainment the boys have planned. Second, there s the evening gown for the ball given after the team has won. This should be one of those desirable gowns that is perfect when it is a formal af- fair and not too lavishly decora- tive should the dance turn to more informality. Lastly, there is the dressy suit cr ensemble for Sunday wear, and sometimes to wear for the game itselt it the girla decide to be as ornamental as possible to the sec- tion reserved for the house party. Tweed for the Suit I have selected three costumes and a coat that seem to be ideal A Bertha collar decorates & new for a week-end house party. For the traveling suit and per- haps the game, I suggest a smart tweed sult, in beige and rust red. It is deshing, very chic and color- ful. The short coat is simple, tai- lored with a nonchalance that the rigidly formal tailored suit never knows. The blouse is of beige faille crepe, tying at the front side with a full, soft bow. A little appliqued design of the tweed, at the left side of the blouse, has a similar bow of the silk falling from it. i The skirt has a wide panel of pleats across the left side. A bgjge sports hat in fine, soft felt has a knitted band and jaunty bow of beige and rust. The raccoon coat, folded over a chair, has a gay lin- ing of checked flannel, in rust red, beige and brown. Her purse and shoes are brown. For the formal dance, nothing could be lovelier than a dawn pink faille taffeta from Lanvin. It has a very full skirt, achieved by a rather intricate circular cut, with & charming overskirt over a drop skirt with longer sides. The draped bodice has one peplum side and one side tied. The loveliest touch of all s the dainty little chiffon bertha, sparklingly deco- rated by paillettes in three shades of pink and silver. For the formal suit, nothing is @ better choice this season than a vine-red velveteen suit. It has a charming slender line to |its straight coat that still has a roomy cut. The skirt is slender lined, also, with a wrap-around skirt that allows freedom for walking. The coat's collar and muff are distinetive touches. A little ric- coon choker ends in a very full ruffle of the velvet. A little rac- coon muff has full velvet ends so that it seems to be a mere contin- uation of the cuffs, The little toque of matching velvet has rose beige velvet flowers over 8ne ear. With this two blouses can be worn, one very formal of metal cloth or lame, the other of flat grepe, banded in velvet. One appropriate for an informal tea dansant while the other is perfect if she chooses to wear this suit to the game.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hy- gela, the Health Magazine At this scason with the onset of many severe infections disorders, physicians are often asked about inoculations against various infec- tious conditions. The most frequent question has to do with various vaccines or ser- ums in the prevention of the com- mon cold. It may be said that there is thus far not one vaccine or serum on the market proved to be of any virtue in the prevention of the com- mion cold. The natural history of such in- fections is such that immunity created cven by an attack of cold is very brief, so that it is reasonable to" believe that inoculations are not ikely to be developed that will be of service, Smallpox Immunity Vaccination agzinst smallpox has been shown definitely to have vir- tue in protecting many people throughout life against this discase, and in the vast majority of instances from five to ten years. It is regard- ed as good practice. to be vaccin- ated against smallpox every ten years, and immediately in the pres- cnce of possible contact with a case or in time of epidemic. vent crows’ feet. Whether one has them or not, every woman fears those insidious little criss- cross lines at the corner of the eyes that detract so outrageously from the charm of a lovely glance. Use the middle finger for this exercise, Dip it in any good beau-| ty oll you may have, or in almond oil to which a few drops of rose water have been added. Then trace an arc, from the eyebrow, rounding the eyes’ corners to the cheekbones. Do it lightly, but firmly. Every third stroke, stop right at the corner, of the eyes and| make tiny circles afound there. | After completing these ares,| dip your finger tips in oll once more and lightly brush them from the corner of your eyes out in & straight line towards your tem- ples, lift, start again at the eyes’ corners, and repeat. Lightneas of touch, continued gentle massaging and care to al- ways have your fingers well olled are the secret of this exercise’s efficacy. Practice this exercise nights be- fore retiring and leave the oll on all night. Practice again in the morning, use less oil, and gen- tly wipe off afterwards any that should remain. After a person has beea vaccln.| ated twice with & good vaocine and| the vaccination has failed “to take,”! it should be understood that the, person is immune to smalipox.
