like to have it, Benny?"
"Oh, if you pleased" cried Benny,
eagerly.
you can set it at the corner
where the orange tree died." said his
father
Benny planted his tree with great
care. He dug the hole, partly filled 1t
with rich. mellow earth, leaving a
little mound in the center. Then he
set in the tree, spreading the roots
carefully over the mound. filling up
the hole with rich earth.
He went to visit it often, and when
a week had gone by, he saw that the
swelling buds, instead of being
green, were of pinkish hue. And
the next time he found some little
pink blossoms, and was nearly wild
with delight.
20, papa" he cried, my little tree
is going to bear this year!"
IT'S brave little tree" said papa,
"but it must not bear so young.
You'd better pick all the blossoms
off,"
Benny was disappointed, but follow
ed his fathers advice. Soon the leaf
buds opened, and the tree began to
grow.
When the second spring came the
blossoms appeared again. And after
the blossoms dropped there were lit
tie fuzzy balls, and papa said, ut will
do Lo harm to leave few"
The peaches ripened in June, and
were great red-oheeked beauties, and
there was one for each Of the family.
During the second season the peach
tree made a great growth, and the
third spring the branches were thick.
Then it blossomed once more, and set
full of little green peaches, and Ben.
ny said, Il shall leave every one on
the tree"
His father came to look. 'If you
leave every one on" he said, your
peaches will be small and worth but
little should pick half Of them off. "
The peaches began to swell. They
grew to wonderful size, and as they
ripened, the sun gave them a rich
color. When the buyer came to lool,
at them, he said they were so fine he
would give an extra price.
Il think that half of the money is
for peaches and the other half for my
patience" he said.-Mattie Baker in

And how did you like it?" mamma

"Yes, mamma, they we're all very

After luncheon they started, Claudia
holding fast to mammals hand. AS
they turned the corner, the little girl
pointed ahead.

Mamma stared, and then laughed,
for down the street the road-roller
was at work, and there was a sign Of
-"DANGER"-in big letters!
"And it's up the other way, tool"
Claudia cried.
Mamma looked and sure enough,
there was another sign of DAN

Famous Numbers.

The Famous Numbers game is al
ways entertaining and exciting to

number should be repeated several
times on different slips.
tumble the fragments thoroughly in
the basket. The leader selects a pa
per at random, unfolds it and an
nounces what number is written
there. The player first to call ont
some reference appropriate to the
number called wins the slip.
A few references applicable to the
numbers are given here to show the
possibilities of the plan. Say, ior ex-
ample, that the leade; names trc
nu4 oer 3. The quick-witted player
will recall:
The three Virtues, the three Graces,
the three Fates, the brave Three who
kept the bridge with Horatius, the
three Wise Men of Gotham.
Four recalls the Four Georges, the
Four Seasons, Fourth of March,
Fourth of July.
Seven suggests, We Are Seven, The
Seven Sleepers, Seven Wonders, the
Seven Sages.
Twelve, Twelve months of the year,
Twelve Caesars, Twelve Disciples,
Twelfth Night.
Numbers to which less reference is
attached may be given but once on
the slips, but almost all will furnish
at least some literary, legendary or
historical connection, or some popular
catch.

Little Fathers.

some one should speak a word for the

sive features of child life in New
York is the devotion of older boys

Nowhere else, l believe, do boys re-
veal publicly uch affection for little
tots and so willingly take care of
them. With no shamefacedness does
the New York boy wheel the baby
carriage or go-cart, or tote the youngs-
ter in his arms. The tender thought
fulness with which they guide and

An Odd Use for Bread.

Perhaps the most novel use to
which bread is put, says the Amerl-
can Food Journal, may be seen in the
great factories of the Elgin National
Watch Company, at Elgin, Illinois,
where more than forty loaves of fresh
bread are required each day. Super
intendent George i. Hunter, of the
watch factory, is quoted as saying:
There is no secret regarding the
use of bread in this factory, and l am
willing to tell all can concerning It,
From the earliest times in the history
of matchmaking, it has been the Gus
tom of watch-makers TO reduce fresh
bread to the form of dough- This is
done by steaming and lkneading.
They can use this dough for remov-
ing oil and hips that naturally ad-
here, in course of manufacture, to
watch. There are many parts of a
watch. There re many parts of a
watch, by the way, which are so small
as to be barely visible to the naked
eye. The oil is absorbed by the
dough, and the chips stick to it, and
there is no other known substance
which can be used as a wiper without
leaving some small particles attached
to the thing wiped. This accounts
for the continued use of bread dough
in the Matchmaking industry. The
Elgin National Watch Company uses
something over forty two-pound
loaves per day, or about 24,000
pounds year"

Cheese Cloth Uses.

Cheese cloth should be used more
commonly for household purposes than
it is. The material has the special
merit of being firm, yet so loosely wo-
ven that grease comes out readily in
washing, thus it is more easily kept
clean than linen or crash for which
it may many times be substituted. An
unbleached quality that costs not
more than five cents yard is quite
as good for general use as more ex-
pensive fabrics.
The best kind of dishcloths are
made of it. The material should be
doubled, raw edges turned in and
stitched on the machine. This will
wear, and because it cleans so easi-
ly is most sanitary for warm weather
in that it will not become saturated
and smell of grease. Rinsing in soap
and water will be all that is necessary
for cleansing.
For nice furniture it is the best kind
of cloth for cleaning, and all cabin
etmakers keep threes sets for work.
The first is used for applying the oil,
the second to rub it off, and the third
is the polisher Similar treatment for
dining room tables viii keep them in
the pink of condition.
Cheese cloth will save the daily use
of an egg in boiled coffee merely by
having small bags of the cotton kept
in the kitchen. Put the grounds into
one and twist the top around tight
with thread, a spool of which should
be handy for the purpose. The same
bag may be used many times There
| is nothing in the cleaning line for
which it is not good.
Windows and mirrors will never
have a speck of lint on their shining
surface if cheese cloth is used, and
for all kinds of work it will be found
invaluable. A bag made of it should
always be kept in the kitchen for
straining soups.
Tissue paper is another valuable
household asset that all housekeepers
do not appreciate. All of it that comes
into the house should be saved
Moistened with alcohol, it polishes
mirrors to perfection, and even dry
will make them shine. Silver, all hard
woods used for furniture, and steel
also brass, if not badly tarnshed, will
respond Immediately to treatment
with tissue paper, and for packing OF
all kinds it is most useful. Lace, silk
and al ribbons should always be
iron between two layers Of it, for the
materials will not then be shiny

Ingenious Johnnie.

Mother had a bright red apple
which she wished to give to the chill
dren, at the same time teaching the
little brother lesson in generosity.
Johnnie had a peculiar fondness for
apples.
Calling him to her side, she said:
Nov, dear, mamma has a nice, rosy
apple to give you, and she wants you
to be generous" That word was not
in Johnnie's vocabulary, so he said:
"Maman what do you mean by being
generous?"
"Oh, dear, that means you are to
divide the apple into two parts, and
give sister the larger"
Johnnie was silent. Suddenly his
face frightened, as he handed the ap-
pie again to his mother saying: Ma
ma, give it to sister and tell her to be
generous. The Delineator.

How Voices Are Ruined.

Many excellent voices are ruined,
according to communication which
DR. Weiss has made TO the French
Academic du Medicine, by practicing
in too small room. A public sing
or must throw every intonation of his
voice distance of 80 or 40 yards,
he says, but student practicing in
small room is only able to throw
it yard or two, and the consequence
is that the voice, instead of expand
ing, becomes telescoped.
