to record peoples impressions of those in
teresting animals leach person to draw his
own without being allowed a glimpse of
any one else's work., has an amusing COM
panion in a geography sketch book.
In this ones friends are to record, in a
rapid. off-hand drawing, their best recol-
lections of certain very familiar outlines,
such as the coast of Massachusetts,, or
Italy. or England, or North America. To
be even fairly correct Is difficult and rare,
II one is long past daily geography lessons.
The five great lakes of North America is
one of the best tasks to set, this to be
drawn in outline with at least the larger
bays and connections indicated, all to be
done without seeing. first, any other sketch
or map. A correct map should accompany
the book for easy reference and comparison
with the amateur work. The curiously
vague droll, mental maps that ones friends
carry about with them, thus revealed, are
funnier than even the sea serpents por-

paper dolls But Ned, with the dolls,
bounded out of the room. into the hall, the
children after him. Then race began, but
was cut short by mammals appearance,
who told Ned to let the little girls play in
peace. Here, children, take these bananas
and cakes and have a tea party. You can
get some real tea from the kitchen, and
some sugar and cream and have a nice
time"
This comforted Bertha and Amy, and af~
ter putting the dclls on their beds. for. of
course, they must sleep off the bad Effects
of their thrilling adventure, they began to
set the tea table A box covered with a
towel did very well for the table, and with
the bananas cut in slices, the cakes OH
plates, and the teapot, pitcher and sugar
dish in place, the table looked splendid"
both little girls declared. Now, Rosalie
must have on her green cashmere gown for
the tea party. isn't 1t cute?' the little
girl said; "it has pointed lace yoke and
green ribbon rosettes round the waist"
There is hat to match this frock-green
felt with dark green ro5ettes and canary
wings-but Resale did not Put 1t on then.
Of course, as she was going to sit down 20
the table. Winnie, too had a pretty dress
put on her by her mamma, and then the
party began. 1t did not take very long fer
the two little girls to finish all the goodies.
To the outsiders, the mothers seemed to do
all the eating, while the paper dolls sat IN
most sober fashion stiff in their places.
But. alas! Resale was sent up stairs 10 her
room for splitting tea on the front Of her
brand-new dress, and upo1 coming ont
from her punishment looked very sweet
in her white rufied organdie frock trimmed
with turquoise blue ribbon. 1t had a dou-
BILE skirt and the sleeves were very ruff

over the front and ended in rosettes at the
waist.
"Oh! Isn't that lovelyr' cried Amy again.
Bertha, won't you make Winnie dress
like that, please?
II will ask sister to paint you one just
like it," said obliging Bertha.
So, leaving the paper dolls to take care
Of themselves, the two little women got
out their pencils, moist water color boxes,
paper and scissors. and with sisters willing
help, they soon made very pretty frocks,
coats and hats for both Winnie and Rosa
lie, and the time passed SO quickly that
o'clock came before they knew It," and 1t
was time for Amy to go home.
Now, children, as the story Is finished,
you may cut out Rosalie, May and her
gowns, and by coloring them you will have
a new paper dell Perhaps you would like
to paste the doll on large visiting card
this will make her stronger. Then you
could paste her coats, gowns and hats on
letter paper which would mako them all

plainly getting into deep water. 1t was
the literary member who finally came to
the rescue.
