Our senses deceive us curiously at

second, Yet it seems to last ever so
much longer.
what happens is that the impress
sion remains in the eye or the retina
for about one-eigth of a second or
$4,000 times as long as the flash
lasts. II on dark night train speed
ing along at sixty miles an hour is lit
up by a lightning flash, 1t appears
stationary, yet in the eighth of
second during which we seem to see
1t the train travels eleven feet.
But we really only see 1t during
one-millionth Of second, and in that
time it travels only one-hundredth Of
an inch.
When mans leg is cut off, If the
stump be irrtated, he feels the pain
in his toes. This curious deception is
the same as any one can practice on
himself by striking his elbow on the
table when he feels the pain in his
fingers. OF course, in both cases, the
pain is felt in the brain.
We do not actually perceive differ
ent distances with the eye. but Judge
them from various Indications. When
our judgement is at fault we are de-
celved If you see person In fog,

why, gracious!" exclaimed Marjory,
''it dosn't look bit like our parlor.
What does it mean?" she continued,
when they'd all gone TO the front room.
And 1T certainly didn't look like any
bodys parlor at all. UP in the ceiling
little stars twinkled merrily, while
climbing pink roses covered the walls.
Down on the floor where the carpet
should have been was the loveliest
green grass, and even tiny stream of
water with gold fish in it; and, could it
be possible, or were there actually but
terflies fitting about? Yes, some were
butterflies and some were humming
birds-you'd have guessed that by the
way they hummed.
over and over again they hummed the
same thing, and it sounded like Cant
you guess? Can't you guess?
Guess what?" inquired the per-

Seems like some kind of holiday"

than ever.

terfiies.

ing this morning; you haven't had
breakfast yet" he said, and how plainly
he did talk!
That's So" answered Marjory. Il do
feel the least little Bit hungry"
Then she hurried down stairs, and
Dear, dear, dear! I didn't know we
had company" were Narjory's first
words as she entered the dining room.
Good morning." said a very pleasant
voice with a slightly foreign accent.
Could Marjory believe her own eyes!
Why it was surely her best big French
doll who had greeted her.
Good morning, Zelle Lizette, re-
turned Marjory, I'm so glad you're a
talking doll. / always wanted one that
could talk, but you never said word
before"
At this, a giggle, it surely sounded
like a giggle, went all the way around

"we're all here, even Ruthie Ragglcs
Sit down, please; we're just eating our

Marjory ate an orange and two dishes
of oatmeal.
ooh, don't get up yet" said Gretta
Maurine; there are hot cakes to come;

head
''Then they must be good!" exclaimed
everybody at once; and they were, of
course for the way they went-well,
they went like hot cakes and they
could not do better than that.
WYATT, child" said Zelle Lizette, as
every one prepared to rise from the
table; you've spilled a leetle oatmeal
on your guimpe;" and Zelie Lizette
rushed over to Marjory with a napkin.

n HE first thing that Marjory heard
when she opened her eyes on a
Il certain bright morning was the
singing of bird. "Dick always, wakes
SO early" she said to herself, rather
sleepily. Dickey, you must know, was
Marjory's pet canary.
But somehow the song didn't seem to
sound as usual. Marjory noticed that
after she had gotten wide awake. I
could most believe 1t was a-a-a bird
o'-paradise singing that way!" ex-
claimed Marjory to herself, hopping
out of bed.
OF course, Marjory had never heard
a bird -of-paradise sing-had never seen
one excepting in, a picture, but Mar
jory had very happy Imagination.
MY. Oh, myl Dicky, how your tail
has grown!" continued she, aloud, go
ing up to Dicky's cage. But Dicky
never pretended to recognize her Chat
is,if he really were Dicky at alb.
"Peet, peet, sweet, sweet, sweet, ira
la-la-la- la-la-la-la," trilled the beautiful
bird with the long graceful tail; and
he sang all the way from low to high
C, for all the world like little girl at
singing school.
Oh, yes, he was yellow-at least his
body was; that far he did remind her Of
Dicky, but his tail, it was wonderful! 1t
was green: and red, and pink, and blue,
and well, Marjory said 1t showed even
more colors than the rainbow itself, and
nobody could say more than that.
But he didn't stop with la-la, no, in
deed, for he went right on singing,
Away Down South in Dixie" which, as
you know, is the liveliest kind of song,
and Marjory had to dance, for her feet
ran away with her.
Then the bird quit: "No more dane
