Our word "salary" comes from the Latin word for salt! In the body, salt is stored chiefly in tiie skin. When a person has a salt-free diet, the blood loses its salt.

Then the skin has to give up its reserves of salt to the blood, so the blood can have a constant concentration of salt. Sometimes, this loss of salt by the skin has a good effect on certain skin diseases. A salt free diet has been used in some cases to help people with such problems.

2427 Anita Drive Dover RD 4 Brown-Eyed Glen Rock Youngster Joins Club (Happit (Birthdc ay SATURDAY, JIH.T 31, IMS helping the body obtain a substance it needs. The body contains about 50 quarts of water. But this body fluid is not pure water. It is a salt solution. And the body is constantly losing salt in its waste products, in perspiration, and in tears.

So man must take in a certain amount of salt to make up for the loss. The animals that live on land today (including man), are believed to be descendants of creatures that lived in the seas of the earth. The body fluid of these creatures was sea water. When they emigrated to dry land, they still had this kind of fluid in their bodies. So while land animals live on the earth, which doesn't have too much salt, their body fluid is still salt.

So they have to add salt to their bodies to keep this fluid, in balance. Animals that do not eat meat, constantly need salt because plant life does not provide enough of it. But animals that eat meat get enough of it from the body fluid of their victims. This is somewhat the same among human beings. Eskimos, for example, who eat a great deal of meat, have no great need of salt.

But many inland people regard salt as very valuable, because it may be hard for them to obtain. Did you know that the ancient Mexicans used to have a salt god and sacrificed a beautiful Grandma Helps Timothy Report His New Address By THORNTON W. BURGESS Peter Takes His One Chance Who never takes a chance you'll find To opportunity is bHnd. Peter Rabbit. There is such, a thing as being too ready to take a chance and such a thing as being too slow to take a chance.

Those who never take a chance never get far in the Great World for chance enters into everything in some degree at least. The wise will avoid taking a chance when there is no need, but will not hesitate when the need is great for after all it often happens that what seems like chance is in reality opportunity. Tight Situation Peter Rabbit just inside a hole under Farmer Brown's hen house was in a bad situation and he knew it. Just outside were Flip the Terrier and Bowser the Hound who bad chased him there. Inside was Robber the Rat, the outcast, ugly and dangerous, a doer of evil deeds.

Against him Peter would have no chance at all. He might not attack but Peter didn't like the way in which he was sneaking around and gradually getting nearer. Peter was frightened, afraid to stay and afraid to go. He was close to that entrance hole where he could peep out without himself being seen from the outside. Flip the Terrier was still dancing about just outside and barking.

Bowser the Hound seemed to have lost interest. He sat down and scratched his head. He yawned. Presently he got up and began to walk away towards the farmyard. Out of long experience he knew the uselessness of wasting time there.

There was. no getting under that hen house and no chance that Peter Rabbit would come out while they were about. He said as Good Reasoning "When you drive a Rabbit into a hole and there is no one around to get him out for you, you may as well' save your breath and go off," said he. "That is what I am going to do now." And he did. Flip stopped barking and stood still looking after Bowser, bis back to the hole.

He was undecided what to do. Should he go with Bowser or stay and keep Peter a prisoner under that hen house? He knew he couldn't get at Peter. He had been all around that house and there was no place he could get under. Bowser was right; it was useless to stay there. Yet somehow he hated to give up.

So he stood there watching Bowser. Slight Chance Feler Rabbit, waldiiiig Hip, saw" a chance. Flip had started after I JOHN H. ANOPRSOW, 9, Dover, RD 4 R93ERTA JOANNE BAKER, I.

He might not have taken it had he not discovered Robber the Rat too close for comfort and looking uglier than ever and apparently ready to rush at him. That decided Peter. If he were to be killed he would rather be killed by Flip the Terrier than by Robber the Rat. His long heels would at least have a chance to save him from Flip, but under that hen house they wou'd have no chance at all to save him from Robber the Rat. Matter Of Timing Flip looked back at that hole, then once more looked after Bowser.

Robber the Rat rushed. Out from that hole shot Peter and those long hind-legs of his were doing their best. Straight behind Flip raced Peter and he was going so fast that by the time Flip had turned at the sound of pattering feet he was so far that just for a second Flip didn't see Mm. Then he caught sight of the bobbing white spot that was Peter's tail and with a yelp he was after him. And how Flip can run when he sets out to! Peter was going fast but Flip was traveling faster.

Peter was heading for the old stonewall on the edge of the Old Orchard. Would he make it? Would he? Not if Flip could help it and it looked very much as if he could. Had Peter taken too great a chance? (Coowiht 965 VT. W. Burgess) The Tree Toad The tree toad Is a creature neat, With tidy rubbers on bis feet.
