At the same time they learned many things from him. It was he who taught them their greatest weak- ness. "My children," said he, "you can trust your legs, you can trust your nose, you can trust your ears, but unless you are careful your eyes may lead you into trouble. As you grow older you wil see many strange things, but don't be too curious. Do you see that scar on my hip?" The twins nodded. They had often noticed it, and wondered about it. "That is there because of curi- osity," continued Fleetfoot. "Curios- ity 1s an Antelope weakness. When- ever you see something strange you are going to be very curious to find out just what it is. This isn't safe ever. When I was young I once saw a queer thing waving above the grass. I couldn't make out what it was. I stood and looked and looked, and the more I looked the more curious I became. I kept going a little nearer and a little nearer, 1 forgot everything else. I just had to find out what that queer thing was. I couldn't smell it. I couldn't hear it. But I could see it. I knew I was foolish to keep going nearer to it, but it seemed to me that I just must find out what that queer thing waving above the grass was." "And did you?" interrupted one of the twins. "Yes," replied Fleetfoot. "Yes, 1 WHAT NEW YORK " IS WEARING By Annchelle Worthington llustrated Dressmaking Lesson Furnished with Every Pattern Of course you'll want one of the new Vionnet blouses.

By that time I was running away as fast as ever I have run in my lite, I was no longer curious, but dreadfully frightened. After 'that whenever saw anything that made me curi- ous I remembered what had hap- pened and looked another way, Then I was no longer curious." "But what was it that hit you?" asked one of the Found eyed twins, "And what male the flash and the noise?" "Just what it was I don't under- stand myself," replied Fleetfoot., "It was something with which those two-legged creatures called men kill when still a long way off. They point a stick at you, there is a flash of fire and a bang and some- thing hits you. Our worst enemies are those two-legged creatures with the fire-stick. There was a time [ have been told, when Antelope people were to be found all over the Broad Prairie in such numbers that go where you might, there would ayways be some in sight. Then came men with the dreadful fire-sticks and now there are but few of the Antelope people left. When you sce one of those two- legged creatures, run until you are sure that you are safe. Don't be curious. There is no safety in curiosity." So it was that the twins learned about their greatest enemy, man, and their own greatest weakness, curiosity, Many other things Fleet- foot taught them. They learned how to follow another Antelope by the scent left in the grass, and to tell just what he had done, even some time after he had passed. They learned where to find the best food and where to find the best water. They learned to use their noses and their ears, as well as their eyes, and to put more trust in what their nos- es told them than in what their ears or eyes told them. So by the time late fall came and the band begah to break up, they were quite prepared to take care of themselves. A great deal, a very great deal had those young Ante- lope learned in just a few months, But that is the way with the child- ren of the furred and feathered folk. (Copyright, 1931 by T. W.

Mrs. Williams, in an interview with Margaret Babcock Mac- Cahren, reporter of The EVEN- ING TRIBUNE said: "It took me two years to persuade Her Ma- jesty to let me leave her service t, come over here to marry Harry and then she was vexed because she could not understand my withing to leave her to come to this savage America to marry a poor farmer and live beyond the outposts oft eivilization." During the eight years she sorved the Queen, Marie Down- ing received no definite salary, but generous cheques and gifts of jewels were given her as pay for her services. Many of the gifts are still in the possession of Mrs. Willlams, while some of tho diamonds were sold to buy North Dakota farm land and other jewels were forfeited to pay for the meagre necessities of life on the Dakota frontier. In addition to the worries of a reigning sovereign, the Queen had many family cares. At times ber disposition would become ruffled, although she was invari- ably sorry a short time after- wards for losing 'her patience. This recalls an amusing incident of the "timepiece," a gift frown' the Queen, which is one of the favorite. treasures of the Willi- ams' home. "After returning from a for- mal reception one night, the Oueen worked on her state du- ties until the early morning hours, instructing me when she retired to appear at nine o'clock for duty. She herself was always energetic and at work early and oxpected the same of her subor- | dinates. Although I entered Her Majesty's room just before the clock had finished striking nine, the Queen reproved me for my tardiness. It was one of my du- ties to choose suitable gifts for the Queen to present to her call- «1s, and on this particular morn- ing I had brought several suit- uble articles for her approval, among them a timepiece. The Queen took this and presented it to me, saying that perhaps this would help me to be more punc- tual in the future. She was quick tempered only when her affairs had been going badly. A fortnight later the Queen reques. ted me to bring the watch to her, and while I thought it strange the should wish it, I secured mY for her. She took the timepiece and placed it in a beautiful man- tel clock case, saying, 'I designed this one day when I stopped in your room and had my silver- simniths make it up. See, it fits perfectly." She gave it to me to make amends for being so hasty' Mrs. Williams added. Marie Downing was evidently a favorite of Queen Victoria's, for when she wished to come to Am- erica to marry, Her Majesty rajsed many objections and tried to discourage her. Twice she got as far as France on her journey to meet her future hus- band when messages from the sovereign royally commanded her to return as her successor had proved unsatisfactory. After a separation of five years the lovers were re-united at Min- newawkan, where she arrived Jan 1, 1887, and married the sams day. GETTING MORE MILK The outstanding fe- ture about cow testing as anp' 1 to dairy herds at the Illr-* ion Stations cperated under the supervision of the Dominion Department of Ag- riculture is the increase in pro- duction which has been made. Records kept for 19 dairy herds in Eastern Ontario and Westen Quebec, totalling 256 head show an average production in 1928 of 4,944 pounds as compared with 7.073 pounds last year; an in- crease of practically 50 per cent during the short period under re- view, Not only are individuai milk records kept, but advice as to feeding rations and the selec- tion of stock is available througa the supervisors. FRUIT SYRUPS In the home canning of fruits the syrup used is an important factor in success. The kind of syrup to use varies with differ- ent fruits. In putting up rasp- berries, peaches and pears use 1 cup of sugar to 2 cups of water; for rhubarb and cherries, 1 cup of sugar to 1 cup of water; and fcr strawberries and plums nse 2 cups of sugar to 1 of wa'er. A'l syrups should be boiled five minutes before being added to jars. Fill jars with fruit, pack- ing as firmly as possible with- out crushing, then cover with syrup.
