The First Wrong Button.

"Dear mc,' said little Janet, 81
buttoncd just one button wrong,
and that makes all the rest 20
wrong,' and she tugged and fret
ted as if the poor button were at
falt for her trouble.
"Patience, patience, my DEAR
said mama. "The next time look
out for the first wrong button,
then you'll keep the rest all right.
And," added mama, "look out for
the first wrong deed of any kind ;
another and another is sure to
follow.n
Janet remembered how one day,
not long ago, she struck baby AL
ice. That was the first wrong
deed. Then she denied having
done it. That was another. Then
she was unhappy and cross all day
because she had told lie. What
long list Of buttons fastened
wrong just because the first one
was wrong?

A Helpful Friend.

a gentleman living in Bangor,
Me-, tells, in an exchange, Il story
about a little dog which he owns,
that illustrates again the devoted
friendship often noticed to exist
between dumb animals. He owns
cow as well, and the dog and
cow are great friends. Not, long
ago the cow was sick, and the
owner thought best to keep her
gain from her for time. The dog,
however, did not approve Of this,
not understanding it, and decided
to attend to his friends wants him
self, rs his owner discovered one
day when he entered the stable by
chance. There was Master Dog
gle in the act Of giving Boss her
meal, which he did by filling his
mouth as full as he could carry It
from the barrel where the fodder
was kept, and dropping it in front
of the COW, who was eating with
relish the food she had missed.

The Disseminated Bee.

A swarm Of bees had made their
hive in the hollow trunk Of a tree,
The oldest of the bees was never
con>cntcd, because it always wanted
to be boy.
1t used to say: "Oh, dear! the
fairies are always supposed to be
kind. Now, if they are, why don't
they come to me and change me to
boy! ! am really tired Of always
working, and boy does nothing
but play.'
One day fairy did come, and as
he knew that the bee was never
contcntcd, it asked him what he
would like to be. 81 would like
to be boy" he said, "bccausc they
have such good times.' When he
said that he was boy.
He was getting ready for school,
but he did not know his lessons.
"Oh." said he, II wish I was bee
again, then ! would not have to be
bothered with lessons" When he
came home from school he found
the same fairy which had changed
him into boy. oh, dear" said
he, II wish you would change me
into bee again, because boy has
to be bothered with lessons" And
he was changed to \ bee again.
Since that time he has always
been bee, and never complained
about it.--Selected.

How to Make a Chair Sleigh.

lave you ever tried to make a
"chair Sleigh" on which to take
out sister or mother when skating
on the iceG A simple way to make
one is to prepare a low sled of any
sort that will fit the bottom Of a
folding camp chair, one of the kind
that has back to it. The sled
should not be higher than few
inches. BY mailing two pieces OF
board upon two barrel slaves you
can make simple one. If you
want to use this sled simply as q
sled you may add q third board for
a seat, but if you want to have a
chair sleigh on call for use any old
time, then keep it ready to screw
on the camp chair, already alluded
to, whenever needed, and you will
have chance to add TO your pleas
ure the next time you 90 skating
for, let me tell you, it is great fur
to push jolly comradc upon one
of these slcighs. You should faster
to the feet Of the camp chair &
crosswisc board, both front anc
back. This will not interfere will
folding the chair when you want
to carry it along, yet will give yor
a secure hold to screw the chair fast
to the sled.
