IAStory for
|Childrens'|
THE SWAN CHILDREN,

Many years ago in Ireland there
lived King Liz, who had three sons
and one beautiful daughter. Now
the mother of these children had
gone to live with the angels. and
their queen stepmother was very
jealous of the kings love for the
little ones.
One day she took them out to
play in the woods beside Lake Kill
larney, and while the children were
running and playing she tried to
bride the servants to kill them. Of
course they refused, for they. too.
loved them. Then she went to a
Druid who lived in the woods. and
asked him to bewitch the children.
He told her to lead the children to
the lake. saying that as soon as
their feet touched the water they
would be changed into swans.
She did as she was told. and sure
enough, instead of children they
now appeared as four graceful.
snow white swans. The Druid
called from the bank, Swans. We
shall be till long ages from now.
when We shall hear bell rung by
Christian"
or course as soon as the king
found this out he punished his
wicked wife. He and his foIlwers
thereafter spent hours on the bank
watching the swans swim about
and feeding them, but he had not
the power to remove the enchant
ment.
At last. ages after the king and
his friends had died, st. Patrick
came to Ireland preaching the
blessed gospel and building
churches. One of these churches
was built near Lake Killarney, and
great bell was hung in it's tower.
Then one day 1t rang out, and the
swans on hearing 1t were imme-
diately changed back to children
and lived happily for many years.

BY PARA DALTON.

What have been the handsomest
gowns designed by Spokane's dress
makers, and what about them?
That's the question asked, and 1t
was fully and interestingly an
swered by the "molders Of form
and fashion,"
Eyes, indeed, this has been a busy
season and most prosperous one
for our profession" said Nine.
Campbell, proprietress of one of the

ioiis expression as she tried to re-
call mental vision of the numer-
GUS handsome gowns which have
graced the many social functions
afforded this season by Spokane
debutantes, young brides and So
ciety maids and matrons. 'The ex-
penditure for one wOman's ward
robe for this short season has ex-
ceeded the $1,000 mark, and we
have turned out many single cos
tunes which have ranged in price
from 500 to $500.
"One of the handsomest gowns
we have handled this season." said
Nine. Campbell, was a gunmetal
chiffon, beautifully hand embroid-
cred with jewels and iridescent
trimming. 1t was a Paris design of
the new style girdle effect, made
over undertakings Of pink satin
and gold net. The bodice was elab-
orately trimmed with velvet of the
same shade and gold ribbons, with
undertakings of gold net. 1t is one
of the most expensive gowns worn
in Spokane.
Another beautiful gown made
for charming society girl to wear
to the coming out party of a late
debutante was an apricot crepe me-
teor made in sheath effect, decol-
lete, en- traine. An over robe of sill
yer and pearl trimmings added to
its beauty and charm.
"A noticeable costume was pale

For evening wear, satins of more

The all around slight blousing

Aside from this, the general effect
Is more or less flat and smooth.
Nets of all kinds are popular in

made up plain, naturally. but are
most effective over their white lin

THE FRESH AIR SCHOOLS
American Cities Are Adopting Plan
for tuberculosis Children Which
Has Worked Well IN Germany.

Fresh air schools, started and still
conducted to care for tuberculous
children, promise to have an impor-
tant influence upon the entire pub
lie school system. They are still
new in America, having been in use
in Providence two years, in Boston
something more than year and for
shorter periods in Chicago, Pitts
burg, Rochester and Hartford. They
have been fully tried out in Ger
many, where they have been varied
into open air summer schools and
forest schools. In no place where
they have been tried have they been
abandoned. In most places they are
being extended. Thus far the
schools have included only the ply
sically weak and the mentally back
ward. With plenty of fresh air and
sanitary surroundings, these weak
and defective children have been
able to accomplish more than nor
NAL children in the ordinary schools.
In some cases progress has been ex-
ceptionally rapid. While the minds
develop as they never developed be-
fore, the bodies grow strong and
children are given a chance in life

Our Thanksgiving Dinner.

Thursday morning as we sat
Illuminating upon the goodness Of
God and how fitting is this custom
,of thanksgiving instituted by our
pious forefathers; called to mind
the many happy feasts we had sat
down to upon this day; saw the
steaming dishes, the trembling
jellies and.the numerous kinds of
good things woman can make of
flour; heard the ring of laughter
and recalled the jokes that were
bandyed across the table, in walk
ed our neighbor, Judge Stow and
asked us in to dinner. The glad.
hour at length arrived and we sat
down to sumptuous meal, the
Judge at the head of the table and
Forest Merlin. ]. F. Moore and
r. L. Dillman seated about .thes
board.
The Judge explained that it hap
pens once in several years that his
birthday comes upon Thanksgiv-.
ing and that this was one of the
times. He told us of each of the
Thanksgiving dinners he had en-
joyed for many years back. One
year it was in Kansas, another in.
California, several in Minnesota,
and Wisconsin and couple in
New York. He said that I85I-II-
"a subtracted from 1o1o-II-24
certainly made him 50 years old
though he could hardly believe it.
The meal finished we arose and
in due time departed. Each had
received an inspiration by the ex-
ample of IMAM of 50 speaking
with such hope and assurance of
the possibilities of the future and
each one of us earnestly wished
that the Judge would enjoy the
coming of many more birthdays
and whenever it fell on Thanks
giving he would have occasion to
be truly thankful.

A TREE THAT WEEPS.

During the driest months of the
Rbodesian year-August, September
and October-a tree called by the
natives Mukololo exudes moisture in
large drops from IFS topmost leaves
and gives the traveller who happens
to be standing in the immediate Vi
cinity the impression that shower
of rain is falling. When the natives
see one of these trees dripping they
say: "The mukololo is weeping fol-
rain" Even during the hottest day
the tree weeps copiously.

OLD PENNSYLVANIA TAVERN
Noted Hosteiry Where Great Stage
Coaches Put Up Half a Cen.
fury Ago.

The old Stone house at the juno
ton of the Franklin and Pittsburg
pike with the Erie and Pittsburg
pike is one of the noted historic
spots in Butler county. Half CEN
fury ago the great stage coaches
over these noted highways put up at
the. Stone house for the night.
Buckwheat cakes, honey, country
ham, sausage, Indian mush, dough-
nuts, roasted potatoes and mince
pies formed the larger part Of the
menu at this noted hosiery.
The building was erected in 1917
and is still occupied. It stands at
the crossroads and is surrounded al
most entirely by a dense forest. 1t
was the first house built, possibly,
on the thousand-acre tract of land
taken up by the Mcclure family and
is still in their name.
There are many wild and weird
stories connected with the famous
house which the old people in the
neighborhood tell, but they lack the
element which make them true his
tory. However, it is not too much
to say that. previous to the Civil war
strangers were known to enter the
old Stone house who were never
again seen. These were in the days
of counterfeiters, stage coach travel,
open gambling and open barrooms-
