Ti-' THKHR'S a corner in your house
i A iittie dark, you iift the shade; ;
If there's a corner in your heart
A iittie dark—wei!, I'm afraid
You sit and worry, worry thin,
And Just won't iet the sunshine in.
If there's a corner in your room
A iittie dark, a iamp you tight:
If there's a sorrow in your breast,
I fear you sit there in the night
Among the shadows, in the gloom,
When many lamps might flood the
room.
If there's a corner in your house
A iittie dark, the curtain raise,
If there's a corner in your heart
A iittie dark, then buiid a blaze
Upon the ashes that are dead,
Light some new dream, and look ahead.

Some Comfort for Labor
More Pounds, More Smites
Miracle From the Deep
Mr. Shupiro's Dead
Labor that objects to wage reduc-
tions may tind some comfort in tho
fact that a 10 per cent reduction may
mean before long a 100 per cent in-
crease in general prosperity, with
restoration of wages.
Hig industrialists know that it ia
to their own interest to restore wages,
and raise them even higher. Kvcry-
body knows now that prosperity de-
pends on the surplus earnings of
workers and their ability to buy what
they create.

BEDT/ME -STORY FOR CM/LDREN
By THORNTON W. BURGESS
PETER RABB!T HAS
A CLOSE CALL
A CLOSE call means a narrow es-
cape. That is what Peter Rab-
bit had the night he gave the warning
that saved some of the geese in the
pond of Paddy the Beaver. Peter
knew just how much risk he was run-
ning when he thumped that warning.
He knew that just on the other side
of the pond, hiding in the Hlack Shad-
listen. He had run about a third of
the way to the bramble-tangle when
he stopped and sat up. With his ears
standing straight up he listened with
all his might. It was very still there
in the Green Forest where he was, but
back where he had come from he
couid just hear the gabbling voices of
the geese, and so he knew that they
had been wakened in time. lie knew
perfectiy well that the wisest thing
for him to do was to hurry on, but
his curiosity wouid not let 1dm. Per-
haps, after all there was no real dan-
ger. He would stay where he was
and then if no one fullowed him per-
haps he couid slip back to Paddy's
Pond and ieam just what had hap-
pened after he had thumped. He won-
dered if Honker the Goose knew that
it was he, Peter, who had give!

too, that they would be very, very
angry because lie had spoiled their
chances of getting a fat goose for din-

ids warning he started for the nearest
bramble-tangle. It was a iong way
off, but it was the nearest safe hiding

as he ran he listened with all his
might for sounds of some one follow-

NOW IS THE T!ME
*TNIIS is the season when we begin
-1 to iook up our cherished recipes to
use for canning and pickling. That is,
the thrifty housewife docs, for often
a recipe is mislaid untii too late to
prepare It.
Cucumber Mustard Pickles.
This is one of the recipes that will
be cherished, for the pickles are firm
and good up to the iast one. Prepare
a Jar with a gallon of vinegar, a cup-
ful of ground mustard, and half a cup-
ful of salt. Drop the fresh cucumbers,
well washed, daily into this pickle
untii the jar is full. They wiii be
ready to eat in two weeks.
Chili Sauce.
Take twenty-four iarge ripe toma
toes, seven white onions, two green
peppers, five eupfuls of vinegar, two
tahiosponnfuls of salt and one cupful
of sugar. Itring the vinegar and sugar
to the boliing point, add the other in-
gredients whieh have been put through
a food chopper and cook one hour at
the boiling point.
Tomato Catsup.
Take three dozen ripe totatoes,
(hue red peppers, six onions, all
chopped fine. Add fwo teaspoonfuls
CH< h of whole cioves, stick cinnamon
and ground mustard. Tp three cup

with a cioth and lid, but need not be
sealed. T!n<xe cherries are most de-
licious to serve with meats, as are the
pickled cherries.
Spiced Grapes.

knew just as weii as Peter did that i
there was no safe hiding place for Pe-

was just where Peter would start for.

Hy this time Old Alan Coyote was
net far behind him and ids nose was
n Peter's tracks. Now I'eter can run
ver^ fast for a short distance, but for
i io:tg distanee Old Man Coyote can
un \cry much faster than i'eter. Thut :
afe old bramble-tannie was stili some
distai ce away when Peter, looking
back as he ran, saw old Man Coyote j
{almost at his heels, lite sight of those
{Bgrinnitig teeth seemed to give Peter j
imore speed. Never had he run as he :
/ran th<-n. His heart wts thumping so
!that it seemed as if it would burst.
His breath was aimost gone. The
bramble-tangle was oniy three jumps
taway, hut Old Man Coyote was so
close titat it seemed to i'eter as if he
could fee! his hot breath. One jump!
Two jumps! Three jumps! Peter
felt the friendly old brambles brush
against him and then there was a
sharp pui! at his tail. With a little
scream of fear Peter pulled with ali
his might and thorr=he wns sate! He
looked back. Just on the edge of the
bramble-tangle stood Old Man Coyote
and in his mouth was a little bunch of
white hairs. Peter looked at his fun-
ny iittie tail. It iooked funnier than
ever. There was a hole in the middle
where the hair had been puiled out.

it. "Hut he would run, sobbing, if any-

Remember, when you ask for
