chin while he surveyed the dinner
table with , a cold and critical eye.
v "Where's the dinner V he asked fi
nally. "Ain't we roin' to eat tonight?"
- "It'a. on the table," Ma answered
weetly, "Just help yourself.'
"What to?" f. Paer demanded dl
UBtedly, "What do you think I am,
a hons. -or a goat?"
i "You've been eating too much meat,"
Ma informed him, "And I'm going .to
give you balanced menus from- now
on. i . . .t:
"What do yoa mean, balanced?" T.
Taer said, "a fellah'd need a hay fork
to derrick this en oil age into hia feed box.
1 can't live on chopped up grass." ,
"You eat too many, animal proteids,"
Ha insisted, "You need more legumes
nd vitamins. .
. "What's legumes 'nd what's vita
mins? T., Paer asked cautiously, "Do
they come in a bottle?" -
"Of" course, not," Ma'answered, "They
grow in plants 'nd vegetables."
"Where'd you get this new fangled
stuffr' T. Paer Bald, "Don't I get any
bread"nd gravy with my hay?"
'"I've been going to the cooking classes
at the Circle," Ma Informed him, "'nd
we've got a modern cook to teach us
how to eat,"
A
VJ - learned how to eat when. I was
weaned.' T.j Paer ( objected, f 'nd I don't
need no modern cook to' learn me over
again." v.'"-,, - . ,
"But your-eating's been unbalanced,"
Ma insisted, "nd you ought to try to
balance it up." ; ..
"The only- thing I can't keep 'on my
knife : is . peas,"- IT.- Paer argued, " nd
I guess I an keep on.eatin' them with
! a spoon." " ...
, "It ain't that J mean," Ma' said pa
! tiently, "It'a what the food's made - of,
not how you shovel It up.""
"Oh !" T. Paer grunted, "What kind of
' fodder's she learned you" how to cook?"
.."Salads," Ma answered enthusiastic
ally. "She's taught us more'n a dozen."
"Gosh," T. Paer exclaimed in dismay,
"Are you goln'-to try 'cm all on me?"
"Next week." Ma continued, heedless
of the interruption, "she's going to dem
onstrate sandwiches 'nd bevenages."
"That eounds. better," T. Paer re
marked hopefully. "Is ahe groin to tell
how to brew emT
"Brew them ?' Ma repeated. "What
do you mean?" i
"The beverages," T. Paer said, "what
goes with the sandwiches.
"We've already been taught how to
make coffee nd chocolate," Ma an
swered Uffly. "The Circle wouldn't use
anything that's brewed."
VWell," T. Paer said uncertainly, "let
me .know before you spring the sand
wiches 'nd maybe I, can invite some
body In that'll .bring what goes with
em." 1 .
"You'll do nothing of the kind," Ma
retorted firmly, "I'm not going to have
anything" like that In my house." .
"Oh, all right," T. Paer answered
hopelessly "What kind of sandwiches
are theygoin' to be, limbtfrger or
garlic?" . .- .
"You're , disgusting," Ma told him.
"The idea of anybody eating such awful
stuff."
"Well." T. Paer said defensively, "L
can't think of anything that'd make a
more balanced menu than limburger 'nd
garlic sandwiches."
"I don't see where you'd get any
thing balanced 'out of tha. combina
tion, Ma said, wrinkling her nose In
imaginary horror, "It'd be Just an
awful smell."
"After you've eat garlic you can't
smell it," T. Paer explained, "'nd after:
you've cat. limburger you can't smell
that." !' - - - - - :'- .
, "What of it?!' Ma asked. "The smell's
still there." . .'..
"If you can't smell a smell they ain't
any," T. Paer argued. "Besides if you'd
eat one of each you couldn't smell either,
'nd if that wouldn't balance things up
I don't know what would." i --
"Anybody that eata garlic 'nd lim
burger in this , house." .Ma remarked
evenly. , ''sleeps in the woodshed 'nd you
want, to-remember that."
"Theyv ain't much danger." T. Paer
grinned.! "if you have to take chocolate
with 'em. But say," ha added coax,
iorly. "don't you think potatoes nd
gravy kinda balance each other?" .
"Maybe." Ma admitted absently look
ing at the traces of her vanished salad,
"them vitamins don't seem rery filling."
"Not iwith ' me, anyway," T. Paer
agreed, i"t feel like I'd et a sofa pillow."
The Twins Are Puzzled

WOULDN'T be quite truthful to say
that the twins enjoyed that first bath
and swim. They didn't. In the first
. place they had gone in all over with
out the least intention of doing so. In
fact, they had tumbled in. This had
frightened .them. They had, opened
their mouths to yell and bad swallowed
more water than was at all pleasant.
' Some' of it had gone down the wrong
, way and this had choked j them. No,

and swim a all. j
They climbed out on the dam of Paddy
the Beaver and shook themselves, mak
ing, "the water fly from their coats in a
shower, i Mother Bear had started back

safe she grinned and went on about
"This has saved me some trouble,"
. muttered she. "I probably, would have
had hard work to get them in the water,
unless I threw them in. Now they will
not be afraid of it. An accident some
times proves a blessing." i
c Meanwhile the twins ha J shaken them
selves as nearly dry as they could and
were now sitting down Bide by side.

Woof-Woof poked Boxer and pointed
into the water.
gravely; staring at the water. There
was something very mysterious about
that water. They felt that somehow it
had played them ' a trick ; that it was
its fault that they had fallen in.
Suddenly Boxer remembered the two
little stranger Bears. What had become
of them? In the excitement he had
forgotten all about them. He remem
bered that it was while striking at one
of them he had fallen in. That little
Bear had struck at him at the same
time. Boxer couldn't recall being struck
nor striking anything ' but that water.
Then he had tumbled in. ,
But had he tumbled in? Hadn't he
been pulled in? Hadn't that other little
Bear grabbed him and pulled him In?
The Instant that idea popped into his
head Boxer was sure that that, was
how it all came about. . He glared as
much as such a little Bear could glare
all around in search, of that other little
Bear. But no other little Bear but his
sister. Woof-Woof, was to be seen. She
was solemnly gazing at the water;
Now, ,of course, the splashing. of the.
twins had made a lot of ripplea on
the surface of the water and these de
stroyed all reflections. But by now the
water had' become calm again. Woof
Woof happened to look down into it
almost at her feet. A little brown Bear
looked back at her. .It was the same
little , brown Bear with whom she had
tried to touch noses just before she fell
Is the water. '
"Woof-Woof poked Boxer and pointed
down jn the water. Boxer looked.
There was the: same provoking little
black Bear! Boxer lifted his lips and
snarled'" The other little Bear lifted
his lips in exactly the same way, but
isoxer heard no - sound save his own
snarl. Boxer opened his mouth and
showed ' all his teeth. Whatever Boxer
did the other little Bear did. And It
was just the same with Woof-Woof
and the little brown Bear.
Boxer was tempted to strike at that
little Bear as he had before, but just
as he was about to do . it he remem
bered what . happened before. ' Thla
caused him to back away hastily. He
wouldn't give that other fellow a chance
to pull him In again. When he backed
away the other little Bear did the same
thing. " In a few steps he disappeared.
Boxer cautiously stole forward. Tha
other little Bear came to meet him.
ir ever there were two puzzled little
Bears they were Boxer and Woof -Woof
as they tried to get acquainted with
their own reflections in the pond of
Paddy the Beaver.

President's Hopes
Of Vacation Vanish
Amid Lots of Work

(By tiiited .Nm.)
Washington, April 2. It looks Uk .
hard and hot summer In Washington
for President Harding:.
Despite the couhUess offers of "sum
mer white houses" tendered him by soli
citous friends from coast to coast, the
president has made no plan for moving
far from Washing-ton during the annual
torrid spelL Few of the party leaders
believe congress will finish its program
before September unless the high tem
perature drives through legislation. Un
til congress leaves, unless it becomes
involved: ' in endless debate over the
tariff, the president expects to remain
on the Job in Washing-ton.
