[sleepy-time tales! JIMMY [RABBIT (ONCE MORE Mr. Rabbit Makes a Suggestion. It was New Tear's day, and Mr. Rabbit said that everybody in the house ought to make what he called “a New Year's resolution.” "What's that, pa?” Jimmy Rabbit asked his father. “How can I make / one of those things when I don't know what they are? Are they good to eat?” "I should say not—unless one wants to eat his words." replied Mr. Rabbit with a laugh. "To make a resolu tion, one promises himself that he will do something during the cornins year that he Oyglit to do." “Or that he 'Won't do something that he ought not to do.” added Mrs. Rabbit a bit tartly. "For instance,” she went on, “one might promise him self that he wouldn’t be late for his meals, as he was last year.” At this remark of Ills wife's, Mr. Rabbit looked very uncomfortable. "What are you going to promise yourself, pa?” Jimmy Inquired. "I can't say,” Mr. Rabbit answered. “I'll have to think about the matter. I want to do what's best.” "What are you going to promise yourself?” Jimmy then asked his mother. “I believe—" said Mrs. Rabbit—”1 believe that I'll not serve any meals! during the coming year to folks that aren’t on time for them." Again Mr. Rabbit looked most un easy. Jimmy could see for himself that making a New Year's resolution was no simple matter. Even his father, who must have made many of them, needed to think well before deciding what he would do. Ills mother, how ever, seemed to have no trouble mak ing up her mind. 1 suppose, thought Jimmy, ‘‘I could promise myself not to bo late for meals. Rut that would be n hard promise to keep. I might be playing a gome at mealtime. And it wouldn’t be very pleasant to stop right In the middle of n game.” lie was unusually thoughtful that day. He was so quiet that Mrs. Rab bit remarked to her husband that she hoped Jimmy wasn't going to start the new year by being ill. She no ticed that there was nothing wrong with Ills appetite. And both he and his father were very prompt for their meals. Mr. Rabbit said no more about New Tent's resolutions. "Have you promised yourself any thing yet, Fa?” Jimmy asked him at last. Mr. Rabbit started: and he dropped his spoon upon the floor with a clat ter. "I’ve been thinking the matter over,” ho replied with a sly glance at his wife. “I've about decided It will bo best for our family if none of us makes any promises this year. I be lieve we'll get along just as well with out them.” ■ • "I was just going to decide that I wouldn't eat any more green peas un til next June," Jimmy told his par ents "Well, there can he no harm in promising yourself that,” said his lather. "You won't have any trouble keeping that promise. There won’t be a fresh green pea eaten In Pleas ant Valley for more than five weeks. On the whole,” he*added, "that would be a fine resolution for all of us to make” Mrs. Rabbit smiled slightly, ‘ I'll agree to that.” she said. "And it won’t interfere with our meals here in this house. They'll ho served promptly to those that are on time for them.” ^ “Certainly! Certainly!” Mr. Rabbit exclaimed hastily. And then he began ; to talk about the weather, and how cold it would probably be the next day. (Copyright, 1922.) - - - • Uncle Sam Says: Sex Education. ‘‘The Parent's Part” is the title of an interesting booklet issued by the United States Public Health service. It deals with the question of sex edu cation. points out the parent's re sponsibility in giving their children sex Information, tells how to teach the child, and contains a list of books on sex suitable for both sexes. Educators believe that the spread of venereal diseases has been due largely to ignorance and false ideas. Formerly, the subject of sex was as sociated with secret and vicious prac tices; to discuss it was indecent. Now, men and women are coming to under stand that the sex function is Inti mately connected with the physical mental and moral development of the individual and with the welfare of the entire race. Renders of The Omaha Bee may ob tain a copy of this booklet as long as the supply lasts by writing to the United States Public Health Service. AA'ashington, I). C., asking for “AT. I>.

Anil after a series of turns and twistings through narrow streets and around corners which left me without the slightest vestige of direction, it abruptly stop ped before a small apartment house. It was of the type which, a number of years ago, replaced many of the old houses of the village, and are now In turn being shoved out of the way by the new and fantastic architecture which holds sway there. "Here we are.” Dicky spoke for the first time since bis sulky outburst at me. "Just tote those bags up to the fourth floor, will you please?" The chauffeur gathered up the bags and when Dicky had helped us out, we walked into the tiny, scrupuluously clean tiled vestibule and waited while Dicky unlocked the vestibule door. In feminine fashion both* Claire and I took In the names over the letter boxes ns Dicky struggled with the un familiar key. Two bore a single name, evidently that of the conventional head of the household. Of the others, most were inscribed w’ith three or four names apiece, indicating that a group of women or a group of men shared an apartment. The one in which I was most interested showed the names of Robert Bliss, Elizabeth Bliss and there was one other which bore the legend George Brill. Margaret Gates and at which Claire Foster turned' an ex cited face to me. "What do you know about that?" she whispered. “We have distinguish ed neighbors." I recognized the names as those of two of the most radical members of our new literati. Married, as they themselves explained, only out of de ference to the ridiculous prejudices of old and ailing parents, as otherwise they would have flung the outworn and useless old rite to the winds, the possessors of a small daughter whom they were rearing accortyng to the ultra modern ideas, they had occupied much space—far too much.

I had supposed Claire Foster to be far too worldly wise to be at ail impressed by their names, but she evidently was still an enthusi astic curious and credulous child be neath her armor. A caustic retort as to the desira bility of her adjective trembled on my lips, but I suppressed it. "yes.” I answered, na we waited for Dicky and the chauffeur with the luggage to lead the way up the unfa miliar staircase, "they would probably die of the dlsgraoe should ever the wife be addressed by HW husband's name instead of her own.” “Don’t you believe in a wife having a separate identity?” she asked wide eyed. "Of course,” I returned. "Then what's wrong with the name plate?” IVe rounded the first landing as she put the query. I waited until we had reached the second before replying. 1 did not care to reveal to her my own i private opinion that the people we had been discussing were shrewd press agents of themselves, who managed to keep pretty constantly in the lime light with their freakish views and actions, and I needed a few seconds to keep that conviction out of tny answer. "Xot a thing,” I said lightly. "It’s | all a matter of personal taste, don’t : you think? For my own part, I pre fer the name card over the apart I ment to which we are going. Robert j'Bliss, Elizabeth Bliss. That gives the wife a separate Identity, and yet has dignity. But, don't mistake me. X neither approve nor disapprove of the other metfiod.” "Well!” siie giggled nervously, ns we mounted the last flight of steps. "It isn't a question which we’ll set tle here. There are nc!he of us anx ious to have our names over the door downstairs. I knew that she supposed she was speaking in a voice inaudible to any one but me. Her fresh, young voice, however, has far more carrying pow er than she dreams, and the words sounded clearly in the deserted hall. X satisfied myself with a quick glance around that the hall was deserted, then as my eyes came back to the open apartment in front of us I saw the chauffeur w'aiting for Dicky to count out his fare, cast swift, furtive looks at Claire and me. And when Dicky had paid and dismissed him, he managed cleverly to give all three of us another look as with apparent as siduousness he inquired if there w>as anything more he could do for us.

Bear Miss Fairfax: Have come to you for advice. I have a very dear girl friend and am interested very much in her. She has been going with a fellow since last spring. He was working when ho started to go with her. but shortly afterwards he quit liis job and has not worked since, although they aro thinking of getting married. Bo you think he really in tends to marry her? Or, do you think he is just using her as a pastime pleasure? He never takes her any place, but whenever there is a prise fight or wrestling match he always goes—and she stays home. What is CASTOR IA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years Always bears -S> Signature your idea of a man like that? Please publish this, an I am worried about her. Will you publish this as soon as possible In your advice column. Thanking you, 1 remain. X', V, Z. It would be cosy enough for me to say that he Is not the right kind of a inan for any girl to marry, for that Is niy opinion. Judging by "hat you Bay. But I think another kind of advice is also needed in this ease. Mo matter how much we think of o n . fiiends, we cannot work out their ldg life problems for them. Counsel with your friend, set her « good ex ample and bo ready to stand by her in adversity, but do not undertake to dictate to her whom sho shall marry. I am stire your Interest is well meant, but remember thero is a limit to the interest you have a right to take in this love affair. A Dimple nnd a Shilc: You ask why "hell" is a worse word to us than "heaven.” It's a worse place, isn’t it? Seriously speaking, I couldn't give you a reason, hut it is a fact, nevertheless, that "hell" sounds worse than the other word. Perhaps it is Just for the simple rca son that heaven may conjure up pleasant thoughts in our lupin and "hell" very distasteful ones. Miss K.

Parents’ Problems How can a hoy of 10, who is not a wilfully disobedient child, but who "often forgets to mind," be taught to remembpr as often as lie forgets? This hoy can best he taught to "mind” by being made to feel tile eon RP(|ttences of ills forgetfulness. Very often a child brings upon himself dis appointments. If Huso do not help him to Improve, then hi* parents should punish him in some way that will help him to remember. This is only a phase, which the boy will out grow w hen "ho is a hit older. - \!>\ KKTISKMKNT.
