Afraid OF the Geese.

"Georgie, do you want to go to the
orchard with me while l hang up the
clothesp"
"Oh yes, yes, yes, Barbie." said
George, clapping his hands. He was
always glad to 60 to the orchard with
some one; but he was afraid to go
alone, he was such little fellow. He
felt sure Barbie would take just as good
care of him as mamma always did, but
when the clothes were hung up, Barbio
went to the house without saying q
word to George.
The little boy very soon found that he
was alone, and set up loud cry. This
drew the attention OF flock OF geese,
who were nibbling grass near by, and
they all came around him. No doubt
they wondered what small thing il was
that stood so still and made such n
noise. 1t couldn't be goose, though
George was not much bigger than
goose, and, you may think, acted much
like one. Was it something good to
eatp
They quacked to each other these
questions, anu tnen lney Degan 10 MD
bic his fingers. Georges cries grew
louder and his tears fell faster, and oh,
how far away the house seemed, a0d
there were no windows looking out
upon the orchard! He would run, but
he was afraid the geese would knock
him down with their wings If he
stood still he was afraid they would eat
him up, and mamma would never
know where her little boy had gone to.
Oh, he must get home to mamma;
and giving one great, big. frightened
yell, he started and ran, expecting the
next moment to feel the strong white
wings beating him TO the ground but to
his great surprise the geese made no
objections TO his going, and he was soon
showing his bleeding fingers to mamma
and telling the siory of his wonderful
escape. Mamma listened, and kissed
the little finger-tips and bound them up
carefully. She rocked her little boy in
her arms and sang TO him. The geese
in the orchard went on quietly nibbling
the grass. They had forgotten all about
him. Little ones.

tree, and its leaves and stalks give

used as well as the buds. 1t is very
important article of commerce, and
thousands Of pounds of the little buds
are gathered annually and shipped to

The nutmeg comes all the way from
|the East Indies and from South Amer
lea. It Is the kernel Of the fruit Of the
nutmeg tree, which grows to 2 height
of about twenty-five feet. The fruit
which incloses the nutmeg is Of the size
and appearance Of a small pear. Inside
Of this fruit is a thin covering to the
nut, which Is the mace of commerce,
also used as spice; enclosed in the
mace is hard nut, and when the shell
is cracked open, out comes the nutmeg,
which thus has three separate cover
ings g.ftls.
Ginger is brought over the seas for
our use from the East Indies and other
tropical countries. 1t is made from the
roots Of o little plant which never grows
more than three or four feet high. The
roots are taken up when the stems have
withered, and are prepared for the
market either by seething and scalding
In boiling water or by boiling and
washing. When dried 1t is ground in
mills to fine powder for use. .
Black peapper, the most common kind
Of spice, is made from the fruit OF a
climbing shrub which grows in various
tropical countries. 1t is extensively
cultivated in some parts of India, where
large fields of it may be seen, the plants
being supported on poles or trees. The
fruit is about the size of pea, and OF a
bright red color when ripe. When the
berries are gathered they are spread on
mats, and separated from the spikes, OF
outer covering, by rubbing with the
hands. Cayenne paper, the sharpest
kind, is the ground seeds Of a plant that
has its home in South America and in
some parts Of Asia.
We might take many other articles In
common daily use and trace their his,
tory through all their forms and
changes, but I have told enough to
prompt you to search out their histories
for yourselves. Such study will reveal
to you the fact that not only what you
eat aEd what you wear, but all the
comforts and luxuries that surround you
and make your life happy, are each the
product of much labor, and that they
come from all parts Of the world. In

WASHINGTON, April 24-The news

The alliance 1T Utica settles this point. 1t
