Did any of you little people ever
know where this nickname of the peo-
pie of the United States originated?
Well, one time during the Revolu

sore need Of supplies and ammunition,
at a council that was held General
Washington demanded funds, which
were, however, unavailable. At length
Washington said in despair, "Well, we
must consult Brother Jonathan about
it." referring to Governor Jonathan
Trumbull of Connecticut. Now, 1t hap
pened that the governor was % sue
cessful in raising the necessary money
that after that when there were any
difficulties to be met the soldiers used
to say, "Go to Brother Jonathan" And
after awhile when the origin Of the
phrase was lost the expression still
was popular and is in use at the pres
ent day.

Cut q large fish out of very stout
writing paper.
In the center Of ii cut small round
hole, and from this hole cut narrow
slit extending straight out to the tail.
PuI n few drops OF oil in the round
hole and then quickly but carefully lay
the fish fiat on the water, making sure
that no water reaches the upper sur
face of the fish.
The fish Will then be seen to move
slowly along through the water, al
though it has not received the slightest
push.
The explanation is that the oil which
you have dropped into the little round
hole tries to expand.
AS the paper does not absorb it quick
ly it starts to spread along the narrow
slit that you have cut in the fish from
the hole to the tail. And in doing this
1t pushes the fish forward.

FOR THE CHILDREN



There are many kinds Of balls for
sale in the shops, but most OF them are
too hard for ordinary hand playing.
The writer OF this has never seen any
thing TO equal the balls be used to
make for himself when he was q boy,
and be wants to tell tie other boys
how he did It.
Get perfectly round orange and cut
the peel into even quarters, numbering
them at one end SO as to be able 40 put
them together again in their proper
order.
Ask your mother or your sister for a
pair OF discarded Kid cloves with long
wrists and out of these wrists cut four
pieces exactly like the four pieces of
orange peel. Number them as you did
the pieces OF peel and with linen
thread sew over and over three seams.
thus putting the four pieces together,
but leaving one seam open. This is the
cover for your ball.
Get solid rubber ball about three
quarters of an inch in diameter, and
OH it wind the common woolen yarn Of
which stockings are made. You can
buy the yarn at a shop, or, If you can
get an old. stocking, ravel it out. DO
the winding evenly, so as to keep the
ball perfectly round, and try it now
ard then to see if it is large enough
for your cover. You must make it so
that It wiz fit in the cover exactly, and
then you draw the remaining edges to-
gethcr and sew them over and over as
You did the other seams.
The boy who uses ball Of this kind
will never willingly use any other 1t
is plenty hard enough and yet is soft
to the touch, and the rubber center
gives it all the needed bounce.
