| THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1930 d puts an end to fear and grief. A. ~--Lightfoot the Deer moment Farmer Brown's Boy saw the two Deer lying head to head, unable to get to. their feet, he understood exactly what had ned. He had never seen such hagpene before, but he had read about it kod antlers!" exclaimed Fa er Brown's Boy. "The poor things! Just see how they roll their eyes at me!" He walked around the two fallen animals, and presently they stv gled to their knees and then to their feet. But they were so tired and 0 weak that they trembled. And they did roll their eyes. It seemed to Farmer Brown's Boy as if those eyes were simply begging him to do something. He didn't waste any time. He turned on his heel and began to hurry away. Peter Rabbit, who had been peep- ing out and watching hopefully, was ' spit Farmer Brown's Boy's heart fairly 2 hed With Bity 5 ho looked at them disappointed. Farmer Brown's Boy had been there and had done noth- ing. "I told you he couldn't do any- thing!" cried Sammy Jay. "Perhaps he's gone to get some one to help him," said Peter, try- ing to appear hopeful. "I don't believe it.,'* said Sammy Jay, just to tease Peter. Neverthe- less, Sammy in a few minutes flew away and secretly followed Farmer Brown's Boy. The latter hurried' back home. He went to the barn. Presently he reappeared with some- thing in his hands. What it was Sammy waited only long enough to see that Farmer Borwn's Boy was heading straight back for the Green Forest. Then Sammy flew back as fast as he could go. "He's coming back! Farmer Brown's Boy's com- ing back!" he cried. "What did I tell you!" er, joyfully, Now, the thing that Farmer Brown's Boy had gone home for was a saw. The two Deer were down again. Their tongues hung cried Pet- {Mahaned's brother, died a tragic from their mouths, for they were very, very thirsty. Farmer Brown's Boy's heart fairly ached with pity as he looked at them. He reached out and patted Lightfoot lightly. "Never mind, old fellow," said he. "It won't be long now before you are out.of your trouble!' Then he carefully studied those antlers, which are what many people call horns. . He studied them just to see just how they were locked together. Then he began to saw one of those antlers. It was one of the antlers of the strange Deer, who had chal- lenged Lightfoot. There was silence all around as Farmer Brown's Boy worked. Presently that antler was cut through. Then he cut through the other antler, He had cut at just the right places. Lightfoot, somewhat weakly trying to toss his head, found to his surprise that he could do' it. Ha was free! Farm- er Brown's Boy stepped back. After {a moment or two Lightfoot scrambi- ed to his feet. So did the other Deer. For a moment or two both acted as if they didn't know what to do. They acted as if they couldn't be- lieve that they were free. Light. foot shook his head. with its crown of great antlers. The other Deer shook his head, but only part of his antlers remained. He seemed to sense this, and turning aside, he slowly made his way back in the direction of the Great Mountain, as if in shame because he no long- er had his wonderful crown of antlers. Lightfoot took a step for- ward and blew a faint challenge. But there was no more fight left 'lin either Lightfoot or the other. The stranger stopped at the Laugh- ing Brook and drank and drank and drank; and Lighfoot followed him there, so that the two enemies were side by side as they drank. Then the stranger went his way, and Lightfoot turned to join Mrs, Light- foot, who was waiting for him. They didn't even notice Farmer Brown's Boy, who stood looking on. (Copyright 1930 by T. W.

QUARRY 1S FOUND BY HUMAN HOUND Moslem Trails Slayer of His Niece Halfway Round World Cleveland, O.--Sam Mahaned, a Mohammedan of Palestine, found the end of his long and tortuous trail in Cleveland---found and ecap- tured tha man he had trailed with the tenacity of a bloodhound half round the globe. Many months ago, in the Islamic village of Abwan, Sam Mahaned stood over the dead body of his be- loved niece, Zobaide, and promised Allah that he would not rest his feet until he had found her slayer. Zobaide, 17-year-old daughter of death. But the story begins ear- lier. In this Palestine village of Ab- wan lived a man named 'Ahmed Abed., Ahmed met and fell des- perately in love with Zobaide. He proposed marriage but : Zobaide's father rejected the offer. So Ahmed came on to America for a while, He tried to make a go of it here, but his love for Zobaide was so great that he had to go back, Upon returning his offer of marriage again met with a rebuff, Then he decided to seek revenge. _He instigated a political plot against Zobaide's father. There was an uprising. A mob gathered at Zobaide's father's home, bent upon taking his life. The girl flung herself in front of her father just as the shooting started. She was killed. The fury of the girl's relatives was such that Ahmed fled. And Sam Mahaned took his vow to bring him to justice. Across the continent of Europe Quietly he called a policeman and Cleveland. So the dead girl's un- cle did not let his feet rest. In "the concourse of Union Sta- tion, fam Mahaned sighted Ahmed, Ahmed was placed under arrest. Sam. Mahaned told his story ana Ahmed is being held for deporta- tion. GOLDFISH PRODUCT OF CHINESE SKILL Dr. Berthold Laufer Claims Orientals Mastered Breed- ing Principles Chicago .-- Goldfish were un- known in BHurope before 1691. In that year they were imported from St. Helena. They had come to the island of St. Helena from Batavia, Chinese settlers who emigrated to Java had originally brought them from China. Dr, Berthold Laufer, curator of anthropology at Field Museum of he searched, frequenting the places where Turks were gathered. His trail finally led across the Atlantic and he went from city to city Somewhere in Minnesota he cal that Ahmed Abed was in! Natural History, traced the history and development of the goldfish as a household pet in an article in the September issue of museum periodi- According to Dr. Laufer, Charles Darwin knew that goldfish had their origin in China and believed they had been kept in confinement there from an ancient period. The gold- fish 'still occur in Chinese rivers in a wild state. Not only has it been.brought by the Chinese into a complete state of domestication, but also the numer- ous varieties and the many fantas- tic and grotesque montrosities with protruding eyes or with three and four lobed tails are the products of Chinese skill and industry. These varieties were produced by a studi- ed and conscigus method of inter- breeding. As early as the 11th century, the Chinese understood .perfectly the principle of breeding to a point and the experiments to which they have subjected the fish are practically identical with those carried on by our modern biologists. The plastic material of which the goldfish is shaped, can, within certain limits, |p be molded into almost any thing in the hands of a skilful breeder, The great variability in the color of the head, fins and tail, is the result of many centuries of domestication. In China the goldfish is kept in garden ponds or in large pattery of percelain basins, but never in glass globes as in the new world. AT THE REGENT Outstanding in every respect, a massive production with a story which for tenseness and human in- terest has seldom been told on the dialogue screen, and every charac- ter played by a thorough stage art- ist, the Pathe picture, "Holiday," which comes to the Regent Theatre, Thursday, doubtless will be acclajm- ed as being perhaps the finest co- medy drama of high society and wealth ever filmed. Sophistication and smartness-- these are the terms that truly des- cribe the charm and scintillation that marks every scene of "Holi- day." Set in the background of a Fifth Avenue mansion of unlimited wealth, a most gripping story is de- veloped with intelligence and sa- voir faire. The brilliant dialogue of Philip Barry's stage success, has been retained in the screen version almost in its entirety, Five stage players of great pron fnence are featured--Ann Harding, Mary Astor, Edward Everett Hor- ton, Robert Ames and Hedda Hop- er. Final screenings of "Romance," Greta Garbo's second all-talking success, will be given this evening. An added attraction that is drawing feminine attention is Lock's Au- tumn Fashion Revue on the stage for the last time tonight. Beauti- ful mannequing parade the latest chic creations of milady's season- able attire for eager eyes to behold: The man who complains that he never has a chance would probably be afraid to take one.

SKINS ate not aly BARBIES' SKINS/ A FEW years ago the most beautiful woman in Canada would hardly have claimed that her skin was as fine or as tender as hei baby's. Yet she probably thought that her face was too tender to wash with soap, and she plied this temperamental tissue with all sorts of oils and astringents. S' e did not think of using them on baby's skin because she knew it would be both dangerous and expensive. Daily she washed baby carefully and thoroughly with the gentlest and most effective of soaps--Iinfant s Delight. Nowadays she is applying this wisdom to her- sell. She will tell you that she uses this soap for baby, because itis a pure, mild soap. She knows ' that the addition of boracic makes it a gentle antiseptic and healer for abrasions and erup- tions. Therefore, she says itis obviously the ideal answe, to her own facial cleansing problem.
