CANDYPULLING Nv YME.
BY H. C. DODGE.

If you'd mOlasse5 candy make:
One quart of fine molasses take;
OF vinegar, one-half a cup,
And one of sugar heaping up;
One egg size piece of butter bright:
One teaspoonful of soda white.
Dissolve the sugar in the win,
And with the lasses mix it in;
Then boil with frequent stirring till
1t hardens, like aiwoman's Wilt
When dropped from spoon in water cold.
Stir in the butter, bright as gold,
Likewise the soda, first dissolved
To flavor to your taste comp etc.
Which is by this time too sweet,
Then give one hard and final stir,
And into buttered dishes pour.
Now, as it cools, cut into squares,
For "taffy," or let happy pairs
With buttered finger-tips pull out
The sweetness sticking all about
While pulling candy with your beaus;
Dear girls if they sh ,uld propose
TO ''stick' to you because your ''sweet,"
And smile to think they've said it neat,
Be candid with them-tell them quick,
You don't take "laffy" on a "stick.''

Where Pansy Hid the Sugar.
BY . VEHO.

Her name wasn't really Pansy; but
when she first got up in the morning,
with her long red night dress, pink cheeks,
brown eyes, and her yellow hair standing
straight up all over her head, the boys
said she looked just like one of the big
crimson and brown and gold pansies that
grew under the window last summer.
But / can assure you that no pansy that
ever grew-even in a kings garden-was
ever half SO sweet and loveable as this
unexpected, little blossom that | am
going to tell you about.
1t was maple sugar time in Ohio.
Pansy's father did not own a sugar
camp, but every spring he bought a
quantity OF syrup to put upfor the years
use They always took St part of this
and boiled it down into wax, and filled
egg shells, and made sugar cakes. This
year, as usual, they had big "boiling
down." and it seemed to Pansy that
there never, no never could be anything
half so sweet as good maple wax; indeed
the whole family ate it until their mouths
were sore. One day Pansy said: "Mother,
Pm going to save some of this till George
gets home.
George was her big brother, away at
college, who would be home in a few
weeks.
Every we'll. " said her mother, But do
you suppose you can keep from eating
it?'
81 should fink so-a big girl like me-
most four years old, she replied with
great dignity
"But the boys'll eat it if You don't"
said Jennie.
"No vey won't, - replied Pansy, "1'n
hide it where vey can't find it. "
But you can't keep secret, you'll tell
them yourself. -
81 guess can keep a secret just as
good as you can, Miss Jen, if you do fink
you're 'leven years old. F"
Mother and Jennie both laughed and
then forgot all about it. But generous
little Pansy took two little sugar cakes,
a small piece of paper, and several yards
of string, and after about fifteen minutes

WE have the pleasure this week of pre-
senting an original story for our young
folks by valued contributor She pro-
misses ere long to tell them how maple
sugar is made; which is quite a different
process from that made from the sugar
cane in this State.

You said you would like to have me-
write you another letter. | told papa
that l did not know what to write about;
he said, ''write about that mouse that we
caught in the trap last night. Well, I
tried and tried, but could not think of
anything to say. Then he said he would
have to help me, so here it is:
THE MOUSE AND THE TRAP-A FABLE
Twas midnight, in slumbers profound
The inmates were sleeping in silence around
When sly little mouse, from his home in the
wall,
Just thought he would give them q neighbOTly
call.
But finding them all wrapped in their Sleep
He thought he'd not wake them, but take sly
peep
At the ace where they keep things SO nice and
secret;
Which not only men, but mice love to eat.
He was soon on the shelfwith his dexterous feet
And said to himself: ''Shan't have a treat
AS his hungry NAV and sparkling black eyes led
The way to those heaps OF tempting nice pies.
But our little mouse SO cunning and bold,
Soon had as much as his mouse ship could hold,
And was quietly making his way through the hall
To his sunny little home high in the wall
When close by in q corner as sunny you please,
Lay the daintiest bit of the incest green cheese.
Said he to himself, ''I'll take small bite"
And be here again tomorrow by night"
He had only just tasted when he heard a loud
snap
And found he was caught in a wonderous trap
Thus the soul of poor mOusie was suddenly borne,
To that place of all others, whence no mice
turn.
MORAL.
Dear friends take warning by mousies sad fate,
Though temptation should offer the richest of
bait,
Learn the lesson of life be content with enough,
And you're safe and secure from fortunes re-

last; SO sc slipped quietly down from
her high chair and went into mothers
room. She looked in the stand drawer,
under the bureau, on the bracket-every-
where indeed where she might have put
it; but it was gone. Those boys had got
it! tt was really too much for human
nature to bear She went into the sitting
room, threw herself face downward on the
lounge, kicked up her heels and rent the
air with such a blood-curdling wall that
the whole family rushed in from the sup
per table to see what was the matter.
Poor little girl. She would have shared
the last atom of her own sugar with the
boys, but this she was saving for George
But the boys denied having taken it
and Tom said:
"Do you suppose we'd eat her SUGAR.
''Pd smile to see u.s." said Harry.
''Then the mice must have carried it of, -
said mother, for she had never known
her boys to tell a lie, ''never mind, we'll
open another jar and make some more"
And George said:
'Never mind, we'll see what we can find
in my valise." And they succeeded in
finding such a lovely picture book and
such beautiful lot of Easter cards that
Pansy decided not to "mind" and the
tears were dried once more. Some time
after this, when spring hOuse-cleaning
was in full tide, Jennie (whO, the boys
said, always had to be into everythlng)
asked one day when they were cleaning
mothers room
''Sav, mother, can't [ clean your shoe
box?''
Jennie loved housekeeping time. 81
made such a lovely racket round the
house." she said, besides mother looked
tired and she wanted to help her.
Mother said:
"Why yes, if you think you can do it
nicely. Take it out on the back porch"
So Jennie proceeded to sort over faith
er's and mothers slippers and Sunday
shoes and rubbers and arctics and sundry
tiny fOOtgear belonging to the fOur-year-
old Pansy. Finally when all the shoes
were out and she was digging away in
the darkest corner of the box, she found
little wad of brown paper and long
string. She took it out and examined it
closely, inside there was about a thimble-
full of dark, sticking something, Jennie
could not tell what. She asked mother,
who was passing, but she was in too
much of hurry to stop, so she only
said, 90, don't know what it is, put it
into the stove"
But Mrs. Kelsey-the cleaning woman"
Pansy called her-was never known to be
in hurry, so she took it and smeled it
and said: "Shure, Miss Jennie, it's a bit
of stickin' plaster yer mar put there"
But Jennie 0idn # think If was "Stickin'
plaster" SO she showed it to Cousin Sal
die who likewise looked at it and smeled
it, and then venturesome Jennie
touched it with her tongue, and tasted,
and Saddle touched it with her tongue and
tasted. And then they both laughed and
said i'm the same breath, 'Its Pansy's su-
CARP
And so it was. And to this day those
Wretched boys tease her about it.

Then she climbed up on the sitting room
table and put it behind the looking glass,
saying to herself:
They'll never fink of lOOkin' we're"
When the boys got home it seemed as
if she must either tell her secret or it
would tell itself, or else why did Tom say,
after supper, as he was standing by the
sitting-room table,
" 1t seems as if smell maple sugar."
| suppose Tom and Harry loved their
little sister, but O! how they loved to
tease her. Of course no boy who reads
this story ever leases his sister, but I
grieve to say there are boys who are Just
that bad
Pansy screamed when he said that, and
danced up and down, and pounded him
with her little fists Then Harry came
up and held her and said
"You get it down, Tom, while hold
her, and we'll take it cut to the barn and
eat it all up"
Tom got it down and ratified the pa
per and pretended to be eating it, when
the kicks and screams and laughing be-
came SO violent that mother called from
the dining-rOom:
"Chldren, what are you doing? Pansy
stop screaming. Boys let her alone.
should think you would be ashamed to
act so-big boys like you "
They didn't look half as much ashamed
as they ought to, but finally pretended
to let her get the sugar and then went
laughing out to the barn.
Pansy looked at the sugar (Which had
not been touched-they would not have
eaten grain of it for anything) and it
looked so nice that she could not help
taking nibble herself.
"Just alittle taste that George wouldn't
miss, she thought.
| Then she hid it in another place.
Later when they had all settled down
for the evening Harry went into mothers
room for something. Pansy began to
hop around like drop of water on
hot stove and screamed:
CHOW Harry, don't you go near the
wash-stand drawer! Don't let him
mother Stop! Stop!!"
Neither of the boys had known untilnow
where she had put it, SO they both ran to
the drawer and began to rattle around
as if they were devouring every grain of
sugar in the house, while Pansy kicked
and yelled and shrieked until you would
think she was being skinned alive to say
| the very least.
! Father at last restored order by making
! the boys sit in opposite corners of the
room and keep perfectly still until bed
| time, and giving Pansy very sober talk
| ing to about screaming. Pansy took
another look at the sugar before going
to bed, and gave it another little nibble
Things continued in this way for several
| days-the boys finding the sugar, and
Pansy hiding it in fresh places, and each
time taking "Just a little taste.
But one morning Tom came in with
the news that there was little new calf
| in the barn, and of course that put every
| thing else out of Pansy's little, yellow
| head.

east wind blowing and a winter over coat necessary his enthusiasm was not diminished. AS we reached a tollgate in the suburbs of the city MT. Bowser asked of the old man who took the toll:
 How far is 1t out to where we can pionic?"
 That's according to when you want to pionic," he replied. "If you want to picnic now I'll hire you that shed, which has a stove in it. If you want to wait six weeks you can find a piece of woods about three miles on."
 None of us sad any thing in reply, but I noticed MT. Bowsers lower jaw take drop. I noticed, furthermore, that as we passed tree after tree with. out sign of bud he began to hitoh about uneastly. finally inquired of him:
 MT. Bowser, how far Is it to the green forest7''
 "You will probably get there when the rest of us do," he sweetly replied, as he returned up the collar of his over coat.
 We got there at last. That is, we reached piece of woods. There was nothing green about them, and Mr, Smith seemed bit disappointed. MT. Bowser wouldn't give in, however, but declared that he felt like . new man. He said that the scent of wild flowers which came to him carried him back over Q period of twenty years. We couldn't sec any of the flowers men, tioned, but after making the team secure we set out to look for them. We hadn't gone nve rods before MT. Smith discov- cred bunch of green moss, and MT, Bowser found Q leek. These discoveries filled them with enthusiasm, and they pranoed around like two colts. The only mishap which occurred before luncheon was brought about by MT. Bowser's friAkiness. He saw An old bird's-nest on bush and galloped oil to get 1t, and falling over log he broke both suspenders, ripped his coat up the back and covered himself with black dirt helped to brush him oil, and he appeared to enjoy the joke as much as Smith did, but as soon as he could find opportunity, he said to me:
 Ut has turned out just as I said it would"
 Well. didn't tell you it was too early to oome?"
 "No, ma'am! But for you l never should have thought of comingr'
 We ate our luncheon sitting on a log. The children's teeth chattered as they waited, and when Mrs. Smith found her feet wet she insisted that Smith build Q fire. He complied, and was rewarded by thanks all around and tho fall of a few snow-fakes. We should have gone homo but for MT. Bowser. He Insisted on culling the wild flower, and after 8
