A Quaint IceIandic Custom.

In Iceland, that country of gentle,
primitive customs, from time imme-
mortal it has been the fashion to pre-
sent to lad or lassie, when the first
baby tooth appeared, a lamb to be his
or her own, cared for and tended as no
other pet could be, and never to be
parted with. There comes to us in a
pretty story concerning the ways and
manners of that sturdy, truth-loving
and warm-hearted people an account of
such an offering to the bailiff's son. A
winsome, soft-eyed creature was Bot
ma, the queen of the lamb flock. The
pet grew apace, as did the frolicsome
owner, and when he was ten years old,
hardy shepherd lad, Botna had be-
come old, toothless and lame. She
could no longer go away to pasture
with the herd, or eat her fill of grass,
even in the pleasant midsummer
weather. Her faithful young master
was, however, mindful of Botna's
needs. He had not forgotten that
every year she had given him little
lamb, and in her old age corner was
given to her in the family living
room. where she could see familiar
faces and hear the voice of her best
friends Many times a day she was
fed from a bottle, and was never
taken out for fresh air unless the day
was mild and the air balmy. Fortu-
nate Botna!-Harper's Bazaar.

months and carry all your provis-

of the first articles in the popular
creed is to pack as much as you
can in as small space as you can.
The same thing holds good in bust
ness. The man OF 40 is now the
equivalent of man OF 60, two
