Resolved to run away.

And everything looks grand,

Edna's Holiday.

EQf1d 3 F1OllQdy.
From the Observer
Oh! she was so tired of school.
That very morning she had begged
and begged to stay at home, but
mamma had said:
"No, Edna, you are perfectly we'll,
and there is no reason why you should
not go on now until school is out.
Vacation is only six weeks off, and
then you can play all day and every
day."
"But, mamma, I do get so tired.
And when | sit by the window and
watch the birds flying about and hear
the bees humming it seems | can t
stay in that stuffy little room.''
"Do you ever think, DEAR" said
mamma, gently, "that the bird and
bee are both busy? Instead of max
ing you idle they incite you to work,
for everything in Gods world has its
appointed task, and they who shirk
are drones and oilers. But kiss
mamma and run now, for you have
barely time to get to your desk be-
fore school opens"
And seeing there was no use teas
ing, Edna tied on her little pink sun
bonnet, gathered up her books, and
walked slowly down the front walk,
bordered on each side by sweet nod
ding roses.
Such a cross little girl. She did
think little girls might be allowed to
have their own way sometimes. Why
should grown people always know
best? If ever she had little girl she
would remember how to treat her.
And then when she stopped at Bessie
Bailey's gate, and Bessie's mamma
came out to say that DR.. Brown had
said her little girl was not strong
enough to go to school any more that
session, that did seem more than she
could bear. Why, she always came
by for Bessie, they sat at the same
desk, were in the same classes, and
bad as school had been before she
just didn't see how she could manage
to stay at home, and suddenly, just
before the noon recess, she thought
of plan. Miss Margaret, her teach
er, had sister living about twenty
miles away, and once, when the sister
was i'll, school had been dismissed,
and Miss Margaret had gone to nurse
her. So very carefully and deliber-
ately Edna made her plans.
When school was out for the day
she would take all of her books home
and tell her mother that Miss Morgan
had gone to stay with her sister until
Monday.
OF course it was q lie and she never
had told one before; but it was not
her fault, mamma would make her do
what she did not want to, and little
girls must rest sometimes. AS for
beng found out; well, she must risk
that, but it was not probable; they
lived quite away from any one. Nam
ma was an invalid, often not leaving
Woman's chronicle. (Little Rock, Ark.) 1888-1???, 1889-08-03

since Bessie was sick it was not likely
she would have any little girls coming
to see her. "
When school was dismissed Edna
gathered up books, slate, pencils,
everything, and was just slowing
them away with difficulty into her
schoolbag, when Miss Margaret said,
"Why, Edna, what are you taking all
your books home for?'
All! This was something she had
not counted on. What should she
say? Quick as flash, so surely does
one sin lead to another, came the an
swer.
awe are all going out to Aunt
Edna's to stay few days" for Aunt
Edna had lovely country home few
miles from town, and they frequently
went out Friday afternoons and
stayed until Monday.
"Why, isn't That little unusual?
Your mother is always so particular
to have you lose no time from school,
however, / suppose it's just as well,
for [ noticed in the geography class
how flushed your cheeks were. l
hope you will have pleasant time, :"
and Miss Margaret smiled kindly as
Edna walked away.
At home her story was not ques-
tioned-that her little girl would tell
lie did not once occur to Mrs. Har-
ris, so Edna settled down to have her
"good times. But somehow things
weren't half as pleasant as she had
expected. Every time the bell rang
her heart would give great jump
and then seem to stand still, and if a
visitor came in she was in terror, fear
ing that something would be said, and
her mother discover that Miss Mar
garet had not been away at all. She
was SO restless and irritable, that her
mother said to her one morning
"You see, Edna, staying away from
school isn't as much fun as you
thought, is it? l think you will be
glad when Miss Margaret returns and
lessons begin again"
All! it wasn't that. But that mis-
guilty feeling that went to bed
with her at night, walked up with her
in the morning, stood by her when
she went to say her prayers, and even
made her afraid to stay by her dear
mother She had told two lies
Would any one ever believe her
again? Would God forgive her?
And so it went on for two or three
days, the child so unlike herself as to
cause her mother genuine alarm. On
Friday evening Mrs. Harris had
called Edna to come out on the lawn
with her, the fresh air would do her
good, and they were standing near
the gate, when happening to glance
up the road, Edna saw Miss Margaret,
her hands full Of wild flowers and
ferns, coming towards them.
"Why," she called, cheerily, II
thought you were in the country.
Edna told me you were to go, When
did you return"
81 have not becn," was the reply,
"but you'll am glad to see you back.
Was your sister i'll that you had to go
to herr"
"My sister-go to her, repeated

and it was also plain enough that he had not got out on the other side, for we could see no signs of him for forty rods in either di- rection.
 We finally decided to divide our party, two of us going down stream-an the other two up until we struck the trail again. It is curious, but this curious bear had got into that stream and stayed in, following it down for at least half ynile, and finally coming out of the water on the same side that he went in. When we found his track again we fired gun to let our companions know, so that they could follow us. Do you know that the firing of that gun brought the bear out to meet us? We found him in less than ten minutes after that, following his own track back towards us, and we concluded that was what brought him. When the bear saw us he stopped and sat up to takesa good look. saw at once that he was the same bear that had met on the road to Harris vile. He had the same look that he had when I saw him before. The other two boys hadn't come up yet, but we concluded that we could kill one bear without their help, SO we went at it. Sam Cheney, who was with me, drew up his rifle and let drive. The bear gave big Jump and looked awfully sur prised. The bullet tickIed him, but it didn't do much damage. He looked around for @ second or two and then seemed curious to know why Sam did it, for he started after ulu WILL VouReauCe' Gueu put HI Suo6 which gave him something else to look alter. Sam vast slow in getting in another cartridge and firing shot that was effective. We had him down in about no time and the glory was all our own. The critter was dead be- fore the other fellows caught up with us. After we had settled the animal I felt de- sire to know about him, and followed his tracks until I came to place where he had lain under fallen tree. It was about thirty rods from where we met and killed him, and his bed was yet warm. The curi- osity which believe started him out to find what the noise meant when we fired the gun brought death at our hands. In all my ex- perience with wild game it was the greatest thing ever saw.''

 From the Boston JournaIl
 Miss Le Row, of Brooklyn, who as a teacher has had practical experience with the vagaries of the youthful mind, pub lished some time ago little book entitled "English as She is Taught" The book con tains specimens of the absurd blunders made by children in the use of language in att tempting to fulfill the requirement of mod- ders were so amusing and ridiculous as to 1 surpass the most rollickine inventions of the | witty newspaper paragraphers. No one could read the little book without laughing | till the tears came; yet after the humor of the thing was appreciated there must have remained in any serious mind 6 sense of the painful and the pathetic involved in the system of oramming young minds with l words and definitions which they could not understand, and which no one apparently l thought it necessary to explain to them. To call such 6 process "education" is certainly 8 misnomer. Miss Le Row has now published second | compilation containing veritable specimens of definitions written by public school chil- dren. Here are some samples of them:

BLACK BRIDAL LINGERIE.
Fashions Last Whimsical Decreef
 Startling Revelations.

Fashions Last Whimsical Decrees-
 Startling Revelations.
 Just little startling to old-fashioned ideas of bridal outfits is the modern idea of black underwear. It was looked upon at first as the momentary freak of some aspiring fash- ion leader, but there is no denying it's popu- larity. Black hosiery and petticoats are a fixture; night robes, chemises and drawers soon will be. Forming part of a unique
 bridal set, made in one of the large cities for an expectant bride, are some of these som-
 Der hued garments The black night robe is of China silk, made Mother Hubbard. A
 short, shirred yoke is drawn up with orange
 ribbons, these to be removed-at washing. A coat sleeve with puff at the top, black lace frill at the neck and sleeves and bottom founce, finish the novel garment.
 These black night robes are startling, but they grow on one. They are well adapted for travelling, for sleeping cars and for possi- ble accidents. They neither catch dust, wrin- kle or advertise their use. To be mashed up in that sort of garment would be no humi- 1iation. The black night robe is garme- of destiny. The chemise to match is a low- cut, sleeveless thing, trimmed with black silk lace, through which runs orange ribbon. At the waist line runs 8 shir, through it tL orange ribbon to tie it down. The bottom o1 the chemise, finished with lace rufies, makes the underskirt.
 The drawers are also of black, and the trim ming curves upward on the outside seams, where the ribbons meet in little fluffy knots.
