leap. Could she believe her own eyes:
There were no marks in the absence
column. The teacher must have made
mistake.
Mamma and Uncle Howard looked
the card over and said they were glad
Marjorie had gone from "G' to "G
plus" in her reading, but neither OF
them thought of the omission.
Then came great temptation to
Marjorie. II she should say nothing
about the mistake the record wouId
remain as 1t was, and the teacher and
pupils would forget by next year ana
Great-aunt Morton need never know
So the report card was returned to the
teacher without anything being said
All the next week Marjorie St"rg'
gled with the temptation She seemed
unlike herself.
Friday came again. the last day OF
school. Marjorie could stand 1t n"
longer. Summoning all her courage.
she came back into the schoolroom ut
recess after the others were all out
and sobbed out her story to her
teacher.
$50 you thought | made Il mistake.
did you?" asked the teacher I'm so
glad you told me. because can assure
you that you are the one who has made
a mistake That day was very cold
one, you remember, and something
broke about the furnace early In the
morning, so we couldn't have school
that day. We sent word to all whom
we could reach easily and dismissed
the others as soon as they came. You
live so far away we could not notify
you. I'm sorry this has troubled you
so much. You should have told your
mother or me sooner"
Marjorie ran around to Great-aunt
Morton's after school with her report
card and then fairly flew home to tell
her story to mamma and Uncle How

Of coincidence" said Uncle Howard
as he heard the five dollar gold piece

Tho Merchants.

A game in which the players person
ate merchants and each guesses from
his country and the initial letter OF the
article what his neighbor has for sale.
The players being seated in line, the
one at the end begins. for instance, u
am an English merchant and sell c."
The next in line must supply the name
of the article. which may be china
carpets, cheese, clothing or any produc'
ton Of England. but must be nothing
not made or grown there. like coffee OF
cinnamon. Any one who violates this
rule loses his turn.
Whoever names a correct article then
announces In like manner his OWL
country and the first letter Of what he
sells, and the game goes on as long as
the players choose. 1t should be played
rapidly

Lie and Lay.

These two little three letter words
have a capacity for making trouble
with speakers and writer's that Is out
Of all proportion to their size. 1t seems
to be utterly useless to remind people
that lie" is an intransitive verb, and
"lay" a transitive; that grammatical
distinction Is entirely too vague. The
only way to correct the abuse Is to
keep on calling attention to it and to
illustrate it by example, as In the fol-
lowing sentences, in the present and
the past tense. 81 told him to lay the
book on the table," 81 told him to lie
down and be quiet;'' "He laid the book
on the table," HE lay down and was
quiet" Gle has laid aside enough
money for his expenses" HE has lain
In bed too long already"

PEAS WITH PARSLEY SAUCE.

A pleasant variety in serving peas will
be found in adding parsley sauce. To
half peck of peas add several sprigs of
chopped parsley and boil as usual. When
the peas are thoroughly cooked strain
off the liquid, of which there should be
two cups. This will contain most Of the
parsley. To this add little cream, but
ter, salt and pepper. The parsley will
give the peas delightful flavor and the
dish will be found unusually palatable.

Marjorie's
Victory.

"Uncle Howard" asked Marjorie,
looking up from the book she was read
ing, "what IL coincidence"
"Let me see," replied Uncle Howard,
trying to think how to make simple
definition. when two things happen
at the same time that have nothing to
do with each other, but seem to have
a great deal to do with each other, we
call it a coincidence"
Seeing that Marjorie still looked puz-
zled, he started to explain further,
when telephone message called him
away. AS he took down his hat In the
hall, however, he paused long enough
to say, "I'll look out for first rate
coincidence to show you, Marjorie, ana
then you'll understand better"
The next day happened to be Friday,
and because there was no one to drive
Marjorie to school and because she
was not able to walk so far she was
obliged to remain at home.
Mamma and Uncle Howard were
very sorry, and they all thought Of the
two shining gold pieces in Marjorie's
bank that meant two whole years with
out an absence and of the third that
was to have joined them so soon. for
Great-aunt Morton, who lived IN the
big house on the hill. had laughlngly
told Marjorie the very first day she
went to school that she should have Il
five dollar gold piece ut the end of each
year that she was neither absent nor

A kitten soft and gray.

What would those pussies say?
Each tiny paw despairingly
Would clutch the slender Dough,
And every little kit would cry:
Meow! Meow! Meow"
But when the sunshine came again
And April days grew warm
I'm sure that all the pussies then
Would quite forget the storm
And stretch out all along the stem
To dry their silken fur,
While every single one OF them
Would pur and pur and pur.
And IL the children. full Of gles

Would spring to share the fun
And through the fields merry race
