BILLS IN TROUBLE.

I've got a letter. parsoa, from MY son away

TO think the boy whose futar' I had once
so proudly planned
Should wander from the path o right an

years ago
He'd ind himself a-plowinf Ia a mighty
crooked row
He'd miss his fathers counsels, an he
mothers prayers. too,
But he said the farm was hateful, an he
guessed he'd have 20 &c.
know fhar's big temptation for young
ster in the west,
But believed our Billy had the eourage 70
resist.
Ar when he left warned him o the ever
waitin' snares
That lie ike hidden sarpfnts IA life's path r
way everywheres.
But Bin he promised faithful to be keerfui,
an, allowed
Had build A reputation thatd make US
mighty proud.
nnt il seems a. how my counsel sort O.
faded from BIS mind
An now tke Boys - troskle o. the very
westest kind
His letters came SO seldom that some

That Billy was trampin on mighty
rocky road
but never once imagined he would bow my
head in shame.

willing That Boys Should Be Boys So
Long a. They Don't Modest Him.
Its a shame the way those boys
SNOWFALL every man that goes by" de-
clared Mrs. Grumpy, as she helped her
husband into his overeoat.
That's the woman OF H. growled
Grumpy. They never approve of any
thing that does not contribute to their
own pleasure or comfort. It will BE
a sad day for the country and the world
when boys cease to be boys. Don't be
grudge them their sport
Then Grumpy pulled his winter cap
down to his ears as though he were a
freight brakeman starting on a trip,
and sailed forth. He was no sooner
out of range of the windows than the
bombardment began. At first this spe-
cial attention pleased his grim humor,
and he made no other sign than to hump
his shoulders as he plodded along. When
a particularly hard ball took him fair
~ on MS bump of combatiyeness and
infamed it, he stoically hook his head
and kept his course.
'Biff!" and for a flash Grumpy
thought that house had fallen on
him. As he dug the impacted snow
from his ear he turned like a wild boar
at bay. It was grievous mistake. y
crack in the eye filled the universe with
twinkling stars, and another on the
nose tapped that sensitive member foi
first blood. Then the onslaught was
a relentless storm. Grumpy howled and
said things that sounded profane, while
he dashed about in hopeless endeayoI
10 wreak summary vengeance. He was
driven to ignominious retreat, and the
asylum Of refuge was his house. Then
be roared at his wife for repeating mild
ly that boys will be boys" though
She was amounting his wounds, and
then telephoued wildly for a patrol
wagon, that arrived after every boy
had disappeared.-Detrolt Free Press.

torial column, next to pure reading mat

a local paragraph. This is a luxury
which we have never felt able to afford

under the circumstances it is pardon
able exhibition of vanity on our part

REFORM IN DlNNER-GlVlNG.
simple Dinners Are Now Considered the
Elegant Dinners.

~ dinner engagement, no matter
whether the dinner be large or small,
formal or informal, is the most exact
ing of social obligations. In selecting
the guests for the small dinner choose
those who are congenial. If among
your friends you number physicians
lawyers or politicians, do not invite one
of each class, nor all of one class, simply
because their professions are the samr
but select eongenial spirits. Then
small dinners, we'll arranged, are much
more enjoyable than one large conven.
tional dinner served TO 60 ill-selected
people The food is better, service bet
ter and digestion better, and even when
trained help cannot be employed the
hostess may enjoy the occasion as well
as the guests. The art of dining, re.
member, is quite apart from the art Of
giving dinners.
"A reform in dinner-giying is being
lnstlgated. Simple dinners are now
the elegant dinners The man who has
studied the art Of living lives frugally'
n hostess must never forget that during
the short time her guests are under her
roof she is responsible for their happi
ness and comfort, a huge dinner of IL
courses OF badly blended food is not con-
ducive TO either Savarin said: The
dinner table is place where men are
never bored for the first hour the in
slnuation that second would prove
bore is rather prominent. If people in
the ordinary walks OF life are to make
such entertainments a success they
must never try new or elaborate dishes
or even new ways Of serving; they
should simply add an extra plate or two
10 the usual number and invite Their
friends. Ladies' Home Journal.
