THE LESSON OF "CROOKED
GLASS"

How different we view things In
this world; it all depends on the Ger
tain viewpoint from which we look
An exchange illustrates this in an ar.
ticle headed Crooked Glass;
A party looking through a hotel
window one day counted three
hunchbacks, one after another, on
the opposite side of the street, when
he discovered the window glass had
a queer, blurred streak in it that
made everything crooked. After that
he took pains to look above or be-
low the blur. and he was astonished
to see how many straight, handsome
people came along. There is a crook.
ed glass that often troubles each one
of us; could we just fix our mental
vision above or below the blur and
see clearly. it would show us ou1
companions and associates in a very
different light, and they would be
seen in their natural straightness
The writer Of the article quotes the
Bible, and says we are all compelled
to look at one another "as through
a glass darkly," but there is no need
OF having the glass crooked. The
writer goes on to illustrate and SAYS:
"If this seems fanciful or figurative
there are simple, practical expert
ments that will make the fact plain
enough. When Mary or Johnny
comes in from school with a sputter-
ing. indignant story about the teach
err how are you going to look at the
reported action? Through their
blurred, one-sided opinion? That is
crooked glass-have a care! Wait:
investigate: do little quiet think
ing over the circumstances. When
a neighbor comes in with a They

THE HOME DAYS.

When the goldenrod has withersd
And the maple leaves are red;
When the robins nest Is empty,
And the Crickst's prayers are said;
In the silence and the shadow
OF the swiftly Fastening fall,
Come the dear and happy home days,
Days we love the best OF all.
Then the household gathers early,
And the freight leaps and glows
Till the old hearth in Its brightness
Wears the glory OF the rose;
Then the grandsire thinks of stories,
And the children cluster sweet,
And the floor is just keyboard
For the baby's pattering feet.

Oh, the big voice Of the father,

How they weave their spells

In the farmstead's holy ground!
When the goldenrod has faded,
When the maple leaves are red,
When the empty nest is clinging
To the branches overhead,
To the silence and the shadow
or the hurrying later fall
Come the dear days, come the home
days,
In the year the best of all.

THE ANIMAL SCHOOL.

Did you ever hear OF the animal
school?
No? Then l will tell you about 1t.
Miss Willow was the teacher, and
the reason she was chosen was-why
do you suppose? Because she had
so many switches about. IL anyone
didn't behave. she would reach out
one of her long arms and get
switch, and then-um-m-m-M-M!
The scholars were: the donkey
with his long ears. the owl. always
half asleep. and the stamping horse;
the woolly sheep. the billy-goat, the
black cat, and the curly dog; the
goose, long of neck, the turkey COB
bier, the duck, and the little red hen.
Then there was a row of birds on the
top rail of fence. And-O, yes
there was the frog. I almost forgot
the frog. He sat in puddle.
When It was time to begin, Miss
Willow snapped all her switches. 1t
was quiet in an instant. Now,
said she, "who Is absent?"
The owl cried out, "Whoo-oo'
whoo-oo, whoo-oo." Miss Willow
turned angrily to the horse, "Was
that you who mimicked me?" she
asked.
The horse trembling very much
answered quickly, Neigh, neigh"
