anything else, to the best possible ad-
vantage To be economical, therefore,
means, apparently, to manage so that
one will not have to do without things
that one ought to have, but will be able
to satisfy ones reasonable desires. 1t is
the people who get things and do things

not those who do not spend it at all"
1t is not usually because women do not
know how to economize, that they cannot
manage their household expenses with
the amount of their allowance, but be-
cause their allowance is niggardly in
proportion to the husbands income and
the style in which they are expected to
live.

husband is known to have a large in

so small she could scarcely make ends

Where the chickens and birds drank early and late.

For Jack Frost last night had notion to tease.

A hole in the ice big enough for her head .g-st
Which she plunged i'll at once without any dread.
She drank and she drank never thinking of fear,
Not knowing an enemy lowered so near.
When a sparrow flew at her. gave her a peck
First side, then the other, then the
neck.
Speckled Hen calmly looked around at the bird
And then such scolding. l wish you had heard.
The hen raised her voice, then the sparrow spoke,
The hen spoke the louder so away sparrow flew.
Speckled Hen thought he'd gone and would not
come back.
"And 1 shall have peace" quoth she but

few minutes after not only the first one
Came back in hurry, but what think you he'd

He's summoned his neighbors-yes, twelve did 1
Each eager to peck her as ever could be.
They came with rush and gave her fright
For poor Speckled Hen was ne'er in such plight.
Twelve sparrows fighting one lonely old hen,
She turned ran, nor stopped til she reached her

From "Old Indian Legends" Retold by Zitksla-Sa.
Affair off upon a large level land, a sum-
ner sun was Shining. Here andNthere over
the rolling green were tail bunches of coarse
gray weeds. Iktomi in his fringed buck
skins walked alone across the prairie with
black bare head glossy in the sunlight
He walked through the grass without fol-
lowing any well-worn footpath.
From one large bunch of coarse weeds to
another he wound his way about the great
plain. He lifted his foot lightly and placed
it gently forward like a wildcat prowling
noiselessly through the thick grass. He
stopped q few steps away from very large
bunch of wild sage From shoulder to
shoulder he tilted his head. Still farther
he bent from side to side, first low over
one hip and then over the other. Far forward
he stopped, stretching his long thin neck
like a duck, to see what lay under fur
coat beyond the bunch of coarse grass.
A sleek gray-faced prairie wolf, his
pointed black nose tucked in between his
four feet drawn snugly together; his hand
some bushy tail wound over his nose and
feet; a coyote fas asleep in the shadow of
bunch of grass!-tflis is what 1ktomi
