The Hunter Lies in Wait for Lightfoot. ! If ever there was ah angry hunter it yas the one who had followed Lightfoot the Deer across the Big River. When he was ordered to get off the land where Lightfoot had climbed out, he pot back into his boat,1 but he didn't row back to the other I aide. Instead, he rowed down the liig! River, finally landing on the name aide, but on land Which Lightfoot's friend did not own. "When that deer has become rested he'll get uneasy," thought tha hunter. "He won't stay oil that man's land. He'll start for the nearest woods. I'll go up there and wait for him. 1'llj get that deer if only to spite that "That's where that deer will head tor," he muttered. fellow back there who drove me oft. Had It not been for him I'd have that deer right bow. He was too tired to have gone far.. He's got the hand somest pair of antlers I've seen for years. I can sell that head of bia tor a good price." So the hunter tied his boat to a tree and once more got out. He climbed up the bank and studied the land. Across a wide meadow he could see a brushy old pasture, and back of that rome thick woods. He grin ned. "That's where that deer will head for," he muttered. "There isn't any other place for him to go. All I've got to do Is to be patient and wait." So the hunter shouldered his ter rible gun and tramped across the meadow to the brush-grown pasture. There he hid among the bushes where he could peep out and watch the land of Llghtfoot's friend. He was still angry because he had not been allow ed to shoot Lightfoot. But at the same time he chuckled, because he thought himself very smart. Light-' foot couldn't possibly reach the shel ter of the woods without giving him a shot, and he hadn't the least doubt that Lightfoot would start for the woods just as soon as he .felt able to travel. So he made himself comfort able and prepared to wait the rest of that day If necessary. "Now Llghtfoot's friend who had driven the hunter oft .had seen him row down the Big River, and he had guessed just what was in that hunt er's mind. "We'll fool him," said he, chuckling to himself as he walked back toward the shed where poor Lightfoot was resting. He did not go too near Lightfoot, for he did not want to alarm him. He just kept within sight of Light foot, paying no attention to him, but going about his work. You see, this man loved and understood the little people of the Green forest and the Oreen Meadows, and he knew that there was no surer way of winning Llghtfoot's confidence and trust than by appearing to take' no notice of him. Lightfoot, watching him, un derstood. He knew that this man was a friend and would do him no harm. Little by little, the wonderful blessed feeling of safety crept over Lightfoot. . No hunter could harm him there. He knew it PEOB MX. VERSO* PURCHASE. ' Flans to press before Congress a measure providiOg for the purchase by the government of Mount Vernon were discussed yesterday by business men of Washington in informal confer ences with Isaac Gans. Mr. Gans is the author of the resolution, presented at the last meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, urging that the govern ment purchase the home and tomb of George Washington and maintain it as a national shrine. The resolution was not acted upon by the chamber, owing to the volume of other business and the fact that prominent speakers were to be heard at the meeting. Mr. Gans stated today that he has assurances from many prominent business and professional men and public officials that they will sup port and advocate the enactment of such a measure by Congress; while a number of civic organizations here and elsewhere throughout the country also have expressed themselves as fa voring government purchase and con trol of Mount Vernon. saaprT MADE IN Say*, bkiii ItafMfkuk Of EVERBEST N HtrtiHu; TU'i Ktka't cUu, AicmW i % Best Feopla Eat 'Hie Bes t Food ?that'swhy EVERBEST NUT MHRGHB1NE Is Served on thie Tables of the Best Families For your own sake you should forget the word "substitute" when you think of EVERBEST.

"I haven't time," is a frequent ex cuse one hears for neglecting physical Welfare. The Interpretation of that phrase usually is, "X am too busy making a living to bother about liv ing rightly." Good health does cost money. It costs time and thougnt. L,ike every other thing in life worth having, it does not come without expenditure of effort. Good health meann, among oth?r things, a proper supply of food. Hastily eaten meals at irregular in tervals bring about digestive troubles Badly cooked food or diet that is not well balanced in time weakens the body and makes it a prey to disease germs. The body must have plenty of fresh air. night and day. The bedroom win dows should be flung wide open at night SO that necessary oxygen may be obtained. Stale air in stuffy rooms l causes headaches. The human body can live many days without food; it cannot live more than a few minutes without air. ftxerclse is another necessity. Civ ilization has relieved us of many bur densome tasks which primitive man had to perform with muscular force. Our muscles are still primitive. They must be used, or our health suffers. Grownups need play and recreatio-n just as much as children. Walk, swing clubs, do setting-up drills, join a gymnasium class, swim, and do not despise athletic games as childish.
