DON'T ASK TOO MANY QUESTIONS,

Some inquisitive woman has started
the inquiry as to how the common
wrapping paper used by grocers is
made and whether it is so cleanly in
its makeup that it is a fit covering
for food which we buy to eat The
making of wrapping paper is a good
deal like the work of some books-too
many questions should not be asked.
The paper generally in use for this
purpose is made of straw, which is re-
duced to fibrous condition by the
use Of alkali and maceration. 1t is
not always that the straw is as clean
as it should be, and we have seen ma
terial go into the nav of paper mill
the less said about which the better.
When the paper is used and kept dry
it is probably all right, but If the food
product which it incloses moistens it
well, if you don't know how the paper
is made you probably won't object.
AS we said before, people can ask too
many questions about things of this
sort

THOROUGHBRED BOYS.

We read lots about the thoroughbred
horses, cattle, swine and chickens, but
we never recall seeing anything about
the thoroughbred boy, when a boy
should be worth far more than any
horse, hog. bull or rooster. The thor
oughbred boy is not very plenty. When
found it will be seen at once that he
comes of no scrub stock. He will have
a good father and mother, particularly
a good mother. He will be well fed
while he is young and his training will
begin before he is weaned. He will
early learn that a good, strong, phys
ical system is one of the most indis-
pensable of manly attributes, and so
will avoid those vices which make
ornery scrubs of so many boys. He will
be a nice fellow round home, kind to
his mother and sisters, and, while full
of fun and gimcracks, as such boy Is
bound to be, will withal be tractable
and helpful. The thoroughbred boy
will early show his breeding just as will
the standard bred colt, and, as with the
colt, the earlier he is broken to harness
the better man he will make. He, like
the colt, will be ambitious, will not like
to let any other boy pass him or beat
him in a competitive race, and 50 he
will make good scholar and try to
stand at the head of his class. Just
as the thoroughbred animal needs bet
ter care and more attention than the
scrub, so this boy will need the best
that good father and mother can do
for him, and they will be rewarded by
seeing their boy grow up into thor
Onghbred man.

Ore. The favorite pastime of this re-
markable canine consists in leaping
from the roof of the fire house to the
street, a distance Of thirty-five feet.
or course, Joker does not land on the
hard asphalt pavement, for a blanket
is held out by his admiring friends to
catch him as he makes the jump.
AS soon as the little dog sees the
fremen make for the street, blanket in

excited that it is hard to keep him
from bounding to the roof and leaping
off before the men are prepared for
the circus feat. He runs back and

until the signal is given below, when
up in the air he goes and down

Home History,

Every place, no matter how small,
has history, and in this history you
will find much of interest. Your
school histories" are, for the most
part. too general to find room for all
the little details that make past times
real. Go to your librarian and find out
what he can advise about reading up
the story of your town. If you live in
city, select some building or special
part of the city, and in the same way
try to find the interesting happenings
connected with it in the past. Per.
haps the leading clew may be found
by learning the story of some promi
nent man and his ancestors-the
earliest settler or most celebrated ma.
tive in your own city. After you have
thus made acquaintance with some OF
the real stories connected with his
tory. you will find general histories
helpful.

HARD TO FIT TOGETHER.

These are puzzles in which you
have to fit together number OF
little squares, triangles and other
figures that make single large square
or some other figure. Here are two
such puzzles which you can make
very easily and puzzle your friends,
and perhaps even yourself, with them.
OF course, when you have made such
a puzzle by cutting out the little
figures yourself, you cannot help
knowing just how to put the pieces
together, but you also cannot help
forgetting this, SO that the puzzle will

along the other lines and you will
have four triangles of different sizes

of them over and ask some one who

Heroism Of a Horse.

While lost in snow storm near
Stanley. Idaho, last February. Mrs. A.
M. Robbins was attacked by hunger
maddened gray wolves, who would
have devoured her alive had 1t not
been for the courage and intelligence
of her horse. She became lost and
wandered aimlessly for several hours.
She finally became aware that several
wolves were following in her track.
Driven mad by hunger, they attacked
the horse and rider. A sudden iump
by the pony threw the women from her
saddle and she fell to the ground and
the wolves rushed at her and would
have torn her but the pony brought
both fourfeet down squarely on one
of the wolves and then turning, used
his heels. One wolf had its. skull
crushed, the others attacked their fall.
en- fellow and Mrs. Robbins then re-
mounted her horse and galloped away.
Two hours later she reached a ranch
house in safety.

Now comes the real trick-to get

you try to do this by throwing the
die upward as you threw the first one
you may catch it in the cup all right,
but at the same time you will be
pretty sure to throw the first one
out of the cup. AS for catching both
together as they come down, you will
find that almost impossible. The
proper way TO get the second die
into the cup without losing the one
that Is already there is to let your
hand drop suddenly. at the same
time letting go the die which you
have been holding.
