CHAPTER XVI.
Th Rooster Upset.
During the summer Henrietta Hen
roamed about the farmyard as she
pleated. To be sure, she always
came a-running at feeding time. But
except when there was sometmnf
"A skunk is afte mcl" he fcawled
there to eat. she didn't go near the,
henhouse. She "stole her nest," to
use Johnnie Green's words, now in
one place and now in another. And
at night she roosted on any handy
place in the barn or the haymow,
under the carriage shed, or even over
the pig-pens.
However, when the nights began
to crow chilly Henrietta was glad
enough to creep into the henhouse
with her companions. She always
retired early. And, being a good
sleeper,- she slept usually until the
rooster began to crow towards dawn.
Of course,- now and then some fid-
gctty hen fancied that she heard a
fox prowling about and waked every
body else with her squalls.
Such interruptions upset Henri
etta. After the flock had gone to
sleep again Henrietta Hen was more
than likely to dream that Fatty Coon
was in the henhouse. And she would
squawk right out and start another
commotion.
Luckily such disturbances didn't
happen every night. Often nothing
occurred to break the silence of the
henhouse. And Henrietta would
dream only , of pleasant things, such
as cracked corn,, or crisp cabbage
leaves, or bone meal. After dreams
of1 that sort Henrietta couldn't
always be sure, when the Rooster
waked her with his crowing, that she
hadn't already breakfasted. But she
would peck at her breakfast, when
feeding time came, and if it tasted
good she would know then that the
other food had been nothing but a
dream.
One night, soon after she had gone
back to roost in the henhouse it
seemed to Henrietta that she had
scarcely fallen asleep when the
rooster crowed.
She awoke with a start.
"Goodness!" she exclaimed under
her breath. "I must have slept
soundly, for I haven't dreamed a
single dream all night long. "Then
she noticed that none of the other
hens had stirred. "Lazy bones!"
Henrietta remarked to the Rooster,
"You won't get . 'em up in a hurry.
They don't hear you at all."
To her surprise she received no
answer.
"He couldn't have heard me," she
said to herself. So she repeated her
speech in a louder tone. And still
the Rooster made no reply. Henri
etta couldn't understand it, he was
always so polite to the ladies. Could
it be that he was snubbing her?
Henrietta grew a bit angry as that j
popped into her head. : j
"What's the matter?" she snapped.
"Have you lost your voice?" It was
loud enough to wake me up a few
moments ago."
Receiving no response whatsoever,
Henrietta completely lost her tem
per. "I'll see what's wrong with1
you!" she cackled. And throwing
herself off her roost, thoijgh it was
dark as a pocket in the henhouse,
she flung herself upon the perch just
opposite, where she knew the Roos
ter had slept.
It was no wonder that Henrietta

Hen blundered in the dark. It was
no wonder that she misted her vy
and stumbled squarely into the1
Kooiter, knocking liirn headlong on
the floor.
He et up a terrible clamor. And
he made Henrietta Hen angrier than
ever, for he cried out in a loud
voice something that would have
dinpleaed anybody. "A skunk is
after me," he bawled,

What are the lucky and unlucky
tiays to be married on is fairly well
agreed upon but that the luckiest day
is Wednesday appears to be agreed
upon absolutely. Wednesday is of
course Woden's day, and Woden is
the Anglo-Saxon form of the name
of the great Nore god Odin, the
supreme "All-Father," the patron of
culture and heroes and the source
of wisdom. The Greeks and Romans
made Juno, the wife of Jupiter, the
chief god of their pantheon, the pa
troness of marriage but the Norse
men appear to have made the patron
the chief god himself; although one
of his wives, Frigga, was the god
dess of love in its most constant and
elevated form as Freya, another wife,
was the goddess of love in its fleshly
form. Perhaps it was conducive of
peace in Valhalla that these two la
dies were left out of the reckoning.
Odin, or Wodin, however, was ad
mirably suited to be a patron of
marriage for he was a much-married
person liimselfand had a very nu
merous offspring. Young people w ho
get married on a Thursday in June
may be supposed to conform to both
the Norse and the Greco-Roman
mythologies.

Jack and Jill
He sneejied before he had time
even to unwind his muffler and pull
on hn sloven.
"Jack, said the perfect wife, with
a little frown of concern ruffling her
smooth brow, "Jack, you ve wken
cold."
Her huaband sniffer and snuffled,
and drew himself out of his over
coat. MOh. no I haven't," he said arily,
"I rode home in the smoking car
and got my lungs full of smoke, I
s pose. That a all.
He eyed her uneasily, for when
a man has been married but one
year well, wifely concern bodes
much petting and fussing. And men
are wary of that -even young hus
bands.
' "Nonsense," said Jill. "You've
taken cold. And just as soon as
you've finished your dinner, you
must take a hot mustard foot bath
and go to bed. And I'll make you
some hot lemonade, and"
"Nothing doing," he said, rudely.
"I'm not going to be coddled. I
haven't taken cold. And even if I
have, I'll drop down to the drug
store after supper and get some pills
or something."
A firm little line straightened Jill's
lips, but she said no more.
He sneezed three times during the
soup and twice during the floating
island pudding.
He puffed weakly at his pipe and
tried to read the evening paper, but
hig eyes watered and interfered with
the print, and he felt a flush on his
cheeks.
"Come on, sir," came an author
itative voice from the bath above.
"Your mustard foot bath is ready."
"Aw, say-" he started to protest.
"Never mind kicking, Jack; you
come right upstairs this minute."
He pretended to hesitate, but pres
ently dragged himself upstairs and
presented himself for the torture.
Of course, she coddled him fright
fully , . . But then, they have
been married only a year.
The hot lemonade didn't taste bad
at all, and beneath the heavy blan
kets and the lavender-scented sheets.
Jack closed his eyes drowsily and
his mind was at peace. And present
ly he slept.
His eyes were bright and clear in
the morning.
The sniffles and snuffles were
gone.
And he attacked his oatmeal with
a ravenous appetite. The demand
for the second cup of coffee was
promptly met, and five minutes be
fore his accustomed time he was
ready to march off to the station for
his trip to town. i
"Feeling all rieht. ' lionev?" a-skerf
Jill demurely. ,
Reeling all right?" he repeated in
surprise. "Why, sure, I'm feeling
all right. Why shouldn't I feel all
right?"
"Well. I didn't think you'd get over
your cold quite so easily, but then;
a Kood hot mustard foot bath, and
hot lemonade, and plenty of sleep
and "
"Aw, that's foolish to talk that
way, dear," he said.
The clock struck the hour, and
he stood with his hand on the door
knob ready to go. He leaned over
and kissed her as the program called
for.
"I never had a cold anyway; I
told you that last night. But, of
course, you're just like a woman.
You have to do just so much fuss
ing." ; '
And the brute went off down the
street. ; . , . , . .

WHY-
Is the Steam From a Coffee-Pot
White?
When w consider the color of the
liquid which is being boiled inside a
coffee-pot, it would seem logical to
expect that the steam given off
through the spout would be a deep
brown, just as the steam which
comes from a tea-pot ought to be a
light-yellowish color. But as we
know from experience, this is not the
case for steam is always white, no
matter what the color of the liquid
which is being boiled.
The answer to this paradox lies in
the fact that not all of the coffee or
tea or other liquid is transformed
into steam. Only, the water under
goes this change and it is for this
reason that the longer we boil things
the "stronger" becomes the mixture,
