OLD ROSE,

worn next year, but since they are
not so practical as long coats their
popularity is not assured. / ad-
wise you to buy a suit of the

Tree Froqs.

WARN evenings, especially before
W rains. seem to be the happiest times
for the lively little tree frogs. Then
they sound their whistling. musical trills
These tree frogs are smaller and prettier
than other frogs. but that is not their
chief advantage for they have little suck
ers on their lips and on the ends of their
toes SO that they can hang safely from
the undersides of glossy leaves and
smooth branches. These little evening
serenaders can also climb trees and walk
down smooth surfaces head first without
falling. They almost good walk
ers as the fly which crawls on the ceiling.
In the southern part of the United States
where there are green leaves nearly all
the year, these frogs are green This is
trick of mother nature. She gives this
color so that the frogs enemies may
not see them when they are in the trees,
and so that the little insects upon which
the tree frogs feed may not their
danger when approaching the hungry
jaws of their captors. The boys and
girls living in northern United States see
there these animals often cling to de-
cayed tree trunks where green would al
low them to be easily seen. These crea-
lures can change their color to match
that of the old gray fence or the tree
branches. Far away in BorneO there is
kind of tree frog which can fly be-
cause it's toes joined together by a
thin skin. It's feet then make sails,
which carry the creature from treetop
to treetop in much the same way as our
flying squirrels make their Journeys.

Postage Stamps.

Turing our vacation trips how pleas
u ant it is to write to those at home
and to receive letters in return. 1t Is so
easy now to buy a two-cent stamp, put
it on a letter and drop 1t into the box
for the postman to carry away that few
little girls or boys ever think of the
trouble our forefathers had when they
wanted to send letters by mail
In George Washington's time there were
no envelopes. The letter, which was just
one sheet of paper, either large or small,
was folded and then sealed. II the letter
was to go only a short distance the
sender paid cents, but If. the person to
whom the letter was sent lived very far
away, the writer paid 25 cents to have
the message carried. Then there were
only seventy-five post Offices in this coun-
try, while now there about about 60, CO.,
In those days no packages nor papers
could be sent through the mails. as the
mail carrier had to carry everything on
horseback or in stage coaches and there
was no room there for unnecessary mall
Often letters were delayed many days on
account of bad roads or severe weather.
In small towns, such as the country
places where many young folks like to
often held many days before the postmas-
ter would start it on it's way. All postage
was paid in advance to the postmaster,
who would wait until enough letters had
been brought to him and paid for to pay
the cost of sending them.
About seventy years ago most every one
had to go to the post Office for his mail,
as postage did not include the cost of de-
nrfr tIn 1otk> -
whom they were addressed. In large
cities private companies took the mail
from the post Office to the people for two
cents letter. This. of course, was an
extra expense, usually to the letter
writer. In those days there were no
stamps. so when a letter was mailed it
was marked paid by the postmaster.
Then the mail carrier would take it with
the rest of the letters. In large cities.
when a business man wanted to send a
hundred letters at once. he had to wait
long time for the postmaster to write
paid on each piece of mall In order
that the letter senders might be more
quickly served the postmasters in differ
that they could be stuck on letters at
home These stamps meant that the
postage had been paid
AS stamps cost something to print. the
postmasters had to charge enough for the
stamps to pay the postage and the cost
Of making the stamps. Usually nine ten
cent stamps cost dollar. The extra ten
cents paid for the printing of the stamps.
This arrangement cost letter writer's more
than the old way. but they were willing
to pay for saving time. A little later the
government started making postage
stamps and required every one to use them
for sending mail. Now postage is mucn
cheaper than 1t was then. as a two-cent
stamp will carry a letter thousands Of
miles. even across the United States and
then across the wide ocean.

Sure, right you are. sonny" cried
Uncle DAN But we are going to fish
And Uncle Dan went direct to the kitchen
and got a great tin pan. This he filled
with water and carried to the back porch
where no rain could get in. Placing the
pan on the floor. Uncle Dan tossed into
the water several make-beleve fish in the
wood. Then bending a pin into a hook
he tied it to Irvine, and the Irvine in
turn was tied to stick which Uncle Dan
| found in the woodshed
Now sonny. sit here and fish, said
Uncle Dan. placing low stool close to
the pan of water. And try to catch one
of those fishes swimming there. For
every one you draw out on your hook
I'll give you a penny. And you may
spend the money for whatever YOU like i"
"I'll dit tandy wifi it, smiled Chubby,
joyfully.
Then he sat down and fished and fished
ever so long
Uncle Dan sat nearby in the ham
mock, reading. Just as Chubby was
about to give up in despair-for he had
tried and tried to catch one of the fish
with the hook, but all in vain-he noticed
one of the paper fishes floating just over
the hook. Immediately the f1sherman's
beneath the floating bit of twisted paper.
He did so. and 10. the hook caught the
fish. "Oh. Uncle Dan, l dot i'm! / dot
i'm. See?" And Chubby danced about in
glee over catching his first fish, even
though it were a bit of twisted paper
And mamma was called to see the fish,
still hanging on the hook. And mamma
declared it was the very finest fish she
had ever seen taken from a pan of well
water.
