What Johnny Finds Easy to Do

He can scamper mile to the baseball
field,
And ne never feels the heat;
But, oh, it's so far TO the corner store
So far for aching feet,
He can run to see the circus come in,
And stand and watch by the hour;
But the postofice buildings so far
away,
And there might come up a shower.
He can get up at on the Fourth OF
July -g
It's really no matter at all;
But is too early on all other days,
And his mother may call and call.
He can sit up at all hours to frolic. ana
not
Get sleepy or tired a bit.
But. if there's lesson or problem to do,
He goes fast asleep over it.
o Johnny. dear Johnny. how funny you
arei
And when will grown-ups understand
That hard things seem easy, and easy
ones hard.

But the street was so awful wide
He couldn't cross, cause nothing would

So he sat on the curb and cried.
When a great big man, all gold and
Said "Hullo, Buster; now what ails
you?"
And picked him up and carried him
through
Now, wasn't that kind of the Plees-
mann
So. now when he goes to the grocery
store
He calls out as loud as he can
When he comes to that street. that's so
awful wide,
Here's Busteri Pleesman! P-L-E-E-S-
MANI ~
And he goes over feeling so big and
grand.
AS he holds on tight to that white
gloved hand,
For even the horses understand
And stop stone still for the Pleesman.
And the Pleesman's told him to study
hard
His lessons and never tease
His sister, and say Good morning, Pa
And Thank you" and IF you please: |:
To mind his mother right straight
away,
And not be afraid in the dark to stay,
Then when he grows up perhaps he

hind like kite. All at once 1 began
TO swallow, and the ribbon began go
ing down my throat The more l swal-
lowed the further the ribbon went
down, until 1 was choking to death,
which was as bad as being killed by
cat. Fortunately for me, the nurse
came in just then and said: l"Dicky
Lee, what are you doing with all of that
ribbon around your neck and legs
again?" not knowing it was down my
throat as well. She began pulling, and
after a quarter of a yard came it stuck
fast and she could not move it. She
twisted it and pulled it every way, and
it seemed just as tight as ever. I was
wild with pain, but 1 kept very still
and did not utter even a peep. After
a few moments nurse held me firmly
in her hand, looked into my eyes and
said: Dear little Dicky Lee, you will
surely die if I leave the ribbon in your
throat, and it will probably kill you
if 1 pull it out, but 1 will do my best
TO save you" So she began to pull, and
finally the end came, and it is hard to
believe 1 had swallowed 35 inches Of
the pink baby ribbon. We have the
ribbon now, and often show it to peo-
pie. 1t did not kill me, and 1 have been
as lively as cricket ever since and
happy as the day is long. But 1 would
not advise any little bird to try swal-
lowing baby ribbon, for a good nurse
might not be at hand to pull it out

linking that a little variety will
render the puzzle problems more
interesting to the young people who
are striving so hard to solve them cor
rectly, the puzzle editor has decided to
offer an entirely new proposition to-
day, namely, the Patchwork Picture
Puzzle, which will surely please and
interest the younger Juniors, who are
asked to remember that the completed
puzzle must reach the puzzle editors
desk not later than Wednesday after
noon, and that the prizes are awarded
TO the first 20 correct solutions that
are in the editors hands.
L VERYBODY who knows how TO nrt
Together the popular mosaic puzzles
will be able to solve the patchwork
puzzle, for patchwork and mosaic are
very much the same after all. The
verse at the side Of the puzzle tells
the story which the picture that is to
be made from the Is pieces illustrates.
First cut out the entire mosaic and
paste it on heavy wrapping paper be-
fore cutting out. the separate pieces.
This is merely to make it easier to-
handle the pieces and it will also make
the puzzle last longer. After you have
thus reinforced the mosaic cut ont the
separate pieces. The gray part IS to he
cut away. The parts which make up
the puzzle are inside the fine black
line. This line should be cut away so
that when completed the picture will
not be intersected by lines, but be very
careful not to cut away too much
space with the line or the pieces will
not fit neatly.
The answers to the gate puzzle are.
Litigate, profigate, instigate, Newgate,

The Car of Toys

6 ONE children have a way of tearing
y and breaking their toys to pieces as
soon as the newness has worn off
them. These children have the same
small regard for their clothing and
their rooms and books. Now, the
thoughtful boy or girl will never abuse
a toy just because 'it can't feel" as I
heard destructive boy say once in re-
gard to beautiful toy he had demol-
ished ruthlessly. The thoughtful boy
and girl will know that there are many
poor children who never have toys un-
less some of their more fortunate little
comrades give them their wornout play
things, and will therefore. keep their
toys as nicely as they can while enjoy
ing them and as soon as tired of them
or they are replaced by newer and
more interesting ofies-will give them
to those who will appreciate the gifts:
1 have seen little girls willfully pull
the hair from a beautiful French dolls
head, merely giving as an excuse. ooh,
we've had her since Christmas and are
tired of her and want new one." Now,
those same little girls might have made
some poor child very happy by present
ing to her the beautiful doll they had
grown tired Of. There are little, girls
who are obliged to play with empty
spools, balls wrapped of bits of twine
old barrel hoops and any odd piece of
gay colored cloth that may fall to their
hands A real toy, new and pretty is
never theirs, and seldom do they have
