Peter Mink was angry with Tom

everybody that Peter was afraid of
Fattv Cos"- Peter Mink was so an-
So he Jcept guiet after tliat
gry that he went about telling every
one he met how he was going to
punish Tommy Fo. "When I fin
ish with him," he said.' "he'll know
enough to keep his advice to him
self." wnat are you going 10 uo iu
JxmV Jimmy Rabbit inquired.
Peter explained, '"because it was his
r.ico that hp Ktiick in IHV affairs."
And Peter went away muttering even
worse things to his cousin, who was
with him. His cousin's name was
S'.im ,Mink. And he was spending
the summer in Farmer Green's hay
stack near the duck pond.
Slim, had heard somewhere that
there was a place called the reform
school, where boys were sent who
fought too much. And he began to
be afraid that if Peter did tc. Tommy
Fox half the things he saiT he was
going to do, some one would come
along and catch Peter and send him
to the reform school.
And the reform school was an aw
ful place! Why, boys who went
there had to sleep in bedsl They
had to wash their faces every morn
ing, and brush their hair, and TIaVe
table manners I It was no wonder
that Slim began to worry.
"You'd better let that young fox
alone!" he told Peter. "You fight
rr much ' If vOU don't look OUt.
.1
something dreadful will happen to
you some day. You 11 get sent o the
reform school." '
But Petec Mink told him to hold
his tongue. "If you're not careful,"
Peter said. "I'll bite your nose, too.
Now, Slim was smaller than ' his
cousin Peter. And he didn't want
his v nose bitten. So he kept quiet
aficr that. But he hoped that .Peter'
would take his advice. '
I.et's go down" to the brook and
fish." he suggested, hoping that he
could get Peter's mind off Tommy
l'cx; " '
"You can go if you want to," said
Peter -Mink. "And save, me some
fish, too; or it will be the worse for
you!"
Slim decided that he wouldnt go
fishing, after alt." And he roamed
through the woods with Peter, who
was determined to find Tommy Fox.
And at last Peter found him at a

There is a constant hew And cry
against the high prices of eggs and
poultry meat. Boycotts come and
go and while they may affect prices
temporarily, the law of supply and
demand finally governs. Boycotting
is not a permanent cu.c u
only solution is to increase produc
' lion. At present eggs and poultry
meat are scarce in localities where
the demand for them is the greatest.
If people in these localities who
have the ground available will keep,
say a dozen hens, a sufficient num
ber to sunply the home tabic with
eggs, then the problem of high

vantage the "small poultry raiser has
of feeding table scraps.
Get rid of the slacker hens, wheth--e
you use the trap-nest of the Ho

There are many good , features ' in
connection with the various methods
by which thcgood layers ate de

is the surest method; particularly in
the hands of novices.
Now comes another incubator in

The invention is an apparatus by
which any kind of an incubator may

garden party that was being given
by Jimmy Rabbit m Farmer Green's
garden.
Evervbodv but Tommy Fox was
having refreshments. But he said
he didn't feel like eating anything.
That was because lie was pome, ne
never cared for lettuce, or peas, or
cabbage.
Peter Mink had not been invited
to the garden party. But that made
no difference to turn, bctore any
one knew what was happening he
marched straieht au to iommy 1-ox
and bit him on the nose.
TKon tVicrf followed such an uo-
roar as had never before been seen
in Farmer Green's garden. Tommy
Fox and Peter Mink rolled over and
over upon the ground. And for a
long time nobody could tell one
from the other.
But after a while that squirming
lioan f tails and lees began to turn
n ore slowly, until at last it stopped
altogether.
Peter Mink was a saa signr. ne
had been ragged enough before the
fight. But now he looked ten times
worse. And one of his eyes was
closed. And he lud lost his hat aid
one shoe. ' , .
Everyone was glad that the troa
ble was over. And everyone was
glad that Tommy Fox had won. .
And to everybody's surprise, the
ioMrti-c nf all was Slim Mink. Pe-
mrrW cousin. .. '
"Hurrah!" he cried. (I he others
lkd been too polite to say anything.)
'What makes you snout inai:
Peter asked Slim as he crawled away,
'!hv" Vii rnnsin answered.
"Tommy Fox hurt you, instead of
your hunting him. Ana now you
won't have to go to the reform
school."
Rt fnr nnre Peter Mink thought
there might be worse places than
it. tUn,taYt thai mavhp a real
bed would feel pretty comfortable
just then. , - "

THE'hahOY PIO'TROUBH
Too Much Money That
Was His Trouble
By FRANK
Down in Missouri there's a man running a cigar
store for its owner. He gets a salary a very mod
est salary. He's an old man now. He was an old ,
man when he took charge of the business. He liad .
traveled for many years as a cigar salesman, re
ceiving for a number of those years a salary of
$3,000 annually. But one day he found that he no
longer held the job and that his salary had stopped.
" For many years it had been easy money for
him. - There was just himself and his wife to take
care of and the salary was ample almost afflu
ent. It came easy and because it came easyTie dis
tributed it also easily. When he came to the time
that he no, longer held his position as a travelmg
salesman and could no longer expect his monthly
salary check, he was dismayed to find that he had
"not saved any mone against this very situation.
He had stuff in him this man good stuff.
But he had been thoughtless for the future. IJe
recognized it now, that the days of his prosperity
seemed to have passed. But he did not complain.
He took stock of the situation and when the oppor
tunity came to take charge of a cigar store, even
though the salary was less than half considerably
less than half his former salary, he took the job
Willi U1C UCU1D1U11 tU llian -
He counselled with his wiie on tne matter 01
expenses. They made out a. program along the
lines of economy and to their Surprise they found
that they could save money out of this meager sal
ary and still have the necessary comforts.. They
became interested in the situation. Then they de
veloped a desire for a home of their own and when
they had assembled enough tQ make a payment,
they selected one that suited their needs, the in
vestment representing several thousand dollars at
that. They obligated themselves for the amount
and made their initial payment. Then they moved
into it and for the first time in their lives had a
home of their own that is, it would be theirs when
'the installment payments had all. been made.
"We're paying rent to ourselves now," they
said. "And so they were. They liked the experi
ence of being frugal. They studied "the problem
and found it more interesting than the previous
happy-go-lucky course which they had4 followed,
of scattering their earnings to the four winds. Then
the day came when every payment had been made
and the home was theirs in fact. A striking illus
tration of what may be done even though under
great handicaps. This man was past 60 years old.
when his $3,000 salary was discontinued. He had
reached the time of life when the natural inclina
tion was to retire, but necessity compelled a dif
ferent course. For 20 or 30 years this .man had
given no thought to saving and limited his ex
travagance only to the extent of the income. It
was a great life carefree, among good fellows
but as compared with the deeper joy of living, these
years cannot be compared with those later years
in, which useful practices and sound reasoning were
brought to bear. ,
Not everyone has the assurance of health and
capacity to work when the age of 65 or 70 is
reached. This man and his good wife were for
tunate in this respect. They were favored in an
other particular they were strong enough to over
come established habits. They were put to the
test, a bitter one at first, in their case; an insur
mountable obstacle it would have, been in the case
of most people, but they passed the test and won
out in the contest.
' The pertinent question is, to what heights
would this man have reached had he given himself
the benefit of his best judgment and these later
practices during the 20 or 30 or more preceding
years? This is an interesting case more so be
