He was learning much and learning it fast, was Runty. But it wasn't comfortable nor in any- way at all pleasant. In fact it was a terrible scary way of learn- ing a lesson. However, some lessons are best learned that way. They are the ones least likely to be forgotten, It was one thing to watch Unc' Billy Possum fool Flip the Ter- rier by playing dead, and quite another thing to actually be the one who was trying to fool an enemy, It was one thing to prac- tice playing dead and wholly a different matter to be playing dead for his life. There could be no mistakes now, Just the cast little mistake might cost him his iife, Now Runty knew just what he should do, He should play dead but also he should bide his time and watch for a chance to escape, There would be just as much fol- ly in letting such an opportunity pass as there would be in letting Black Pussy know that he was still alive. So Runty, lying there looking as dead as a dead Pos- sum could look, was all the time very much alive and very much awake. "Ah must watch out fo' mah chance," he kept saying over and over to himself. Now Black Pussy wasn't hun- gry. ~ She hadn't caught Runty because she wanted him to eat, at least not right away. She loves to hunt and that is why she had caught him, Had she been very hungry playing dead would have done Runty no good; she would have eaten him at once. But not being hungry Black Pus- sy was undecided what to do. Shoe wanted to take Runty home to show Farmer Brown's Boy what a smart hunter she was, and she wanted to hunt some W. Burgess looked up. It wasn't a very big tree. Should he climb it? He couldn't make up his mind until he heard Black Pussy returning, It rad been Jumper the Hare who had rustled the leaves, and Black Pussy had lost interest at once, She would take that young Possum , home. So she had turned back just as Runty had dodged behind that tree. When he heard her returning his mind was made up for him. That tree offered the only possible means of escape, Perhaps Black Pussy couldn't climb, You see this was his first meeting with Black Pussy and he knew noth- ing about Cats, So up the tree Runty scram- bled and he did it in a hurry. (Copyright, 1931, by T. W, Bur- gess' The next story: Handy Tail." "Runty's An old farmer, intending to go for a drive, ordered his man to get the trap ready. When ready ue said to his little niece, who was spending the holidays on the farm, "Tiny, go and see if the horse is In the trap." Tiny went. "No, uncle," she said, on her return, "the horse is not in the trap, but he's standing be- tween two poles close to it!" Mr. Biggs: "So the Dedding- tons are quarrelling again?" Mrs. Monty: "Yes; their latest auarrel was about madam's pet dog and the expense of feeding 't." Mrs, Biggs: "Great Scott! They have bons of contention enought to feed a dozen dogs!"

She was filled with the excitement of the hunt and had no thought for anything else. Very, very slowly Runty rolled over and got to his feet, His eyes were wide open now and there was nothing dead appearing about him, He was a very much alive young Possum, Where should he go? He must find a safe place hefore Black Pusey's return. He knew of no hiding place near. There was no convenient hole, no hollow log or stump, no pile of brush under which to crawl, There wasn't even a tangle of brambles, To try to escape by running would be useless, for Black Pussy's legs were much, oh very much longer, and he couldn't hope to outrun her.

I'll tell you of my experience, YOR know how pernickety Marguerite is, She always does a lot of research work before she even buys a pocket handkerchief, and she does know values, Well, one day, quite casually and apropos of nothing in particular, she re- marked: "I like - Pember's. There is an atmosphere - of cordlality aboutthe place and everyone is so nice." This was a good deal, com- ing from her, and although I had been having my work done at another beauty parlor, just out of curiosity, remembering what Marguerite had said, 1 went into Pember's one day and I really did find them just as she had said--an air of cordiality, and everyone, from the young woman who presides at the appointment desk to Mr. Pember himself, seemingly genuinely interested In me and my beauty prob- lems, That pleased me tre. mendously. You know, Jane, I'm no baeuty, still, if properly groomed, I can pass muster in a crowd, but the grdom- ing must be done intelligently and I figuréd that with his ex- tensive experience (forty years this month, my dear) Mr, Pember's advice ought to be' worth following, Well, I've been going there regularly ever since, and my first impressions have been amply confirmed. Whether it's a permanent, a facial or just the purchase of a jar of cream, they know their job and are all kindness and courtsey itself, with no pal. aver, and they don't talk one to death while giving a treat- ment, I nearly always have. forty winks while I'm having my hair done, and wake up as fresh as a peony in June. You don't say whether it's the first gray hairs, crows' feet or an extra chin that fs worrying you, but then, Jane, you always did keep your own counsel, and I don't blame you, But just you take your beauty problems to Mr, Pember and your secret will be safe, for he'll solve them so effectively that your-closest friend will never guess what they were. Now that you have your own car the forty miles hetween here and that outlandish re- treat of yours in the House by the Side of where a Road ought to be and isn't, means nothing, You can telephone in and make an appointment, and Mr. Pember's advice is free. Remember the address and come soon, No,' 9, Bradley Bldg, : Affectionately, Nancy.
