Popular Home Journal. One the other

stick of pretty good size, and strong.
Drive these sticks into the ground as
far from the rope as you can. The
sheet will now make a good roof. Two
more sheets are now used for the
sides of the tent. Each sheet makes
an end and one side.
Use safety gins to pin up these sides.
The hole at each end Of the tent under
the roof is necessary to keep it cool
and comfortable. Most tents are very
stuffy and hot, but this tent will be
found very satisfactory and answer
the purpose as well as the average
tent which one is apt to purchase. It
Is advisable to use a pretty strong
rope to tie between the trees; it
should not have any more slack than
is shown in the illustration. The cords
used at the four corners should be
strong, also, to prevent a sudden gust
of wind from wrecking the tent.

CHILDREN WITH SAME NAME
Three Small Youngsters Perplexed at
Old Gentieman's Remark Until
He Explains.

There were once three children
whose names were Elizabeth, Dorothy
and Theodore. They were sisters and
brother. One day an old gentleman
a friend of their mother's-came to
see them and when he had asked their
names he said:
well, we'll; Sc you all have the
same name"
"Oh, no." explained Elizabeth. who
thought the old gentleman must be a
little deaf, 'I am Elizabeth. my sister
is Dorothy and my brother is Theo-
dore."
And those names mean just the
same thing" explained the old gentle
man. Theodore in Greek means gift
of Cod Dorothy is the same name
with the last syllable first and the first
SYLLABLE last. And Elizabeth means
gift of God in Hebrew. But you all
seem to be unusually nice children.

A Princess Prank.

Queen Maud of Norway has always
been the humorist of the royal family.
When younger she was very fond of q
practical joke. One of her efforts in
this direction took place at a cattle
show in the immediate neighborhood
of Sandringham. Accompanied by the
prince of Wales and other members Of
her family. Princess Maud, as she then
was, went toward pen where large
crowd had collected around one Of the
kings prize bulls. Suddenly intense
commotion took place, for the animal
commenced to plunge and something
like stampede took place among the
onlookers. 1t transpired subsequently
that the princess had been proddinS

Wasted Sarcasm.

The Philadelphia milk dealers who
recently raised the price of their
product to nine cents a quart and then
lowered 1t again to eight appear to
have been the subjects of great deal
of unjust censure. They announced
at the time of the raise that milk
could not be sold at eight cents with
out loss. Finding that the consumers
would not pay the new price, however,
they are continuing to sell at the old,
thereby qualifying as genuine philan-
thropists. Every purchaser of milk
at eight cents quart will doubtless
hereafter feel that he is an object of
charity.

each morning! It's meat and bread
to their souls.
Then think of the lordly power, and
don't forget the steady flow Of money
squeezed from the workman's hard
earned pay enevelope.
But when these leaders "tie up" any
industry no man can hold a job who
refuses to pay fines even on trumped
up charges, and steadily pay fees
whatever they are.
The workman Is absolutely at the
mercy Of this band of men who have
secured and hold control.
Many and many an honest workman
has raised his voice and appealed to
his fellows to rise and throw off the
yoke Of Gompers, ct al. But, as one
writes, "At every convention Of the
American Federation of Labor, strong
opposition comes up but at the crit
ical moment the impassioned orator
appears and most dramatically puts
the spot light on the leader and covers
him with mawkish film of martyr
dom and the emotional delegates yell
in delight. forgetting the instructions
Of the peaceful workingmen at home
who desire to free themselves from
the odium of membership under the
great advocates of strike, boycott, vio-
lence and hate"
So we see the unequalled insolence
with which these trust leaders pro-
pose to induce" ministers to pull
their chestnuts from the fire by
