said.

scowled, turning up his coat collar
and looking ferocious.
"What is?" she asked
"Yo won't sit on the sofa with me?'

John" she gently reminded him.
And you won't let me hold your
hand?"
"Why, John. How can when I've
sworn off holding hands?"
Plump, cozy and divinely short was
she, and when John tried to envel0p
these contents of charm her manner
of movement was never so graceful
nor her eyes so bright as when she
eluded his grasp
''Sworn off that. too, have you?'
bitterly cried John, embracing the air
'Sworn that off. too. John" she
smiled from a distance.
And as for John, John slammed the
door open, passed out into the vesti-
bule and banged the door behind him.
From the hall inside she pleasantly
waved her hand at him and turning
to annlhilate her with an awful look
his eyes fell upon the solitaire that
cleaned from one of her fingers.
Here! l want my ring back" he
pantomimed TO her through the glass
of the door
To which she pleasantly panto-
mined back:
I've sworn off giving rings back,
John.
And pleasantly drew down the
blind.
And as for John. John sat down on
the top step buried in thought from
which he emerged at last, saying to
himself:
Il wonder If I'd better get some
flowers and candy and come right
back or telephone her in the morning
that I'll call for her tomorrow night
and take her to a show"
And as a certain picture arose be-
fore him of two persons sitting on Il
sofa. discussing cabbages and kings
and eating candy together. he hur-
riedly turned his steps to the candy
shop and hurriedly muttered:

BICYCLING IN AFRICA.
Jungle Has Smooth Paths on Which a
Seven Mile Speed Is Possible

If President Roosevelt should happen
to read an article by Winston Churchill
lthe British one) in the Strand he will
be for laying out a cinder track on the
White Lot buying a wheel and begin
ming to train
According to Mr. Churchill, ''the best
of all methods of progression in Central
Africa-however astonishing it may
SCENTS the bicycle. In the dry season
the paths through the bush smoothed by
the feet of the natives, afford au excel
lent surface
Even when the track is only . feet
wide and when the densest jungle rises
on either side and almost meets above
the head, the bicycle skins along. swish
ing through the grass and brushing the
encroaching bushes at a fine pace. AL
though at every few hundred yards
sharp rocks, loose stones, water course,
or a steep hill compel dismounting, a
good seven miles an hour can usually
be maintained
"And think what this means. From
my own experience l should suppose
that with a bicycle twenty-five to thirty
miles q day could regularly be covered
in Uganda, and if only the porters could
keep up, all journeys could be nearly
trebled and every white officers radius
of action proportionateiy increased.
Nearly all the British officers | met al

even native chiefs are beginning TO ac-

1t doesn't pay to stick too closely to

A Wis. couple examined an idea
new to them and stepped up several
rounds on the health ladder, The hus-
band writes:
Several years ago we suffered from
coffee drinking, were sleepless, nervous,
sallow, weak, and irritable. My wife
and both loved coffee and thought 1t
was a bracer" (delusion).
Finally, after years of suffering, we
read Of Postum and the harmfulness of
coffee, and believing that to grow we
should give some attention to new
ideas, we decided to test Postum.
when we made 1t right we liked it
and were relieved OF Ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the change
--fresher skin. sturdier nerves, better
temper, etc,
These changes were not sudden. but
relief increased as we continued to
drink and enjoy Postum, and we lost
the desire for coffee.
MANY of our friends did not like
Postum at first, because they did not
make it right But when they boiled

A BIRD FAMILY,s HIGH VALUE.
In the Number of Insects Destroyed the
Little Creatures Earn Money.


A county farmer with taste for sta
tistics has made calculation of the val
ue of tie forest bird to the farmer and
gardener.
He computes, says the st. Louis
Globe Democrat, that on the average
each bird nest contains about five fledg-
ings and that during the period of four
to six weeks when the young birds are
fed by their parents each nesting con-
sumes about fifty worms, flies or other
insects every day. Now, suppose that
the consumption last d month During
that time one brood will eat about 1900
insects. Suppose that each insect de-
stroys during its natural life only one
apple, pear, peach or plum; the farmers
will save 1900 individual fruits by the
tabors of one pair of parent birds. This
estimate he considers very moderate, for
there are some insects, each one of
which does great deal more damage
than he estimates.
One small fly, for example, causes the
dorsts great loss every year by piercing
she young buds of the chrysanthemum,
and thus causing the flowers to become
deformed and worthless. One of these
dies has been known to bore into sixty
chrysanthemum buds in single day.
and thus cause the florist a loss of $25
or $50. BY protecting the bird nests
and eggs the ravages of insects would
not indeed be stopped but they might
be lessened in such a degree as would
greatly increase the income of the farm
er and gardener, for, as insect destroy
ers, robin or jay is superior to the best
spraying machine ever invented, aud,
what is more to the purpose, they work
without pay, begin before sun up and
keep on until dark.
