To say the least it was a very queer
place 10 which Mr.. Sandman had In
vited Ronald and Dorothy.
The palace, TO which they first went
TO get their admission, cards to Topsy-
Turvy-Land, stood upside down on its
towers and one entered by means OF
the chimney instead OF the doors. All
people wore their clothes inside out
and even walked backwards or on
their hands, like acrobats, instead OF
on their feet.
Now the two visitors were TO hunt
in this land for great wild "um.
phigre," queer animal that roamed
the jungfes.
They obtained their cards at the
castle duly giving them to the clown
ticket taker at the gate.
Along rows of purple, red and yell
low trees they passed, sometimes stop
ping to pick queer green flowers.
What wonders they saw! Parrots
swinging by their tails and monkeys
singing squeaky songs. While they

Why Nor Haze Memory- Garden

One of our earliest childhood mem
cries is the hair wreath under the
wonderful glass globe on the marble
top center table which stood in the
exact middle of grandmas parlor.
And the log cabin" the star" the
Martha Washington" and the saw
tooth" quilts-who doesn't remember
them. and how grandmother said:
This Is a piece of Johns first boy
dress. and these pieces are from
Mary's wedding gown" And so on,
until she has perhaps included the
entire family, past and present, in
the making OF the Quilts into which
she has stitched many fond thoughts
Of her dear ones.
And the autograph albums OF our
own school days-how we 'reminisce"
as we look over the names OF our
loved schoolmates, which are inscrih-
ed therein! This one lives abroad,
and that one has accomplished great
deeds, another died years ago-and SO

"Mary's mighty smart woman,

a wise old man say the other day OF
his great-grandson's new wife. And
he sighed and shook his head rue
fully, as much as to say there's trou-
BILE ahead for John"
And there probably is-for the tact
less woman is always unwittingly
treading on some ones toes. John will
in all probability spend much OF his
life in hot water because Of Mary's
thoughtlessness.
We all know that If the tactless one
had thought twice before speaking,
the feelings of the other person would
have been saved. fo- it's true that IL
is usually the good-hearted, impulsive
woman, who's guilty OF this offense.
In a mixed assemblage there's no
telling where casual criticism will
light nor whose feelings will be
wounded. The words: BE on guard,
should ever be the motto of the tact
less.

sired than that of tact. The tactful

The three men sat In Sim Patrick's
dhgy little Office. Beside Patrick the
others present were Ted Larrimore,
son OF the late Senator Larrimore,
and Jimmie Price who. with Patrick,
was a member of the legislature which
elected Larrimore senator.
When my father died. shortly after
beginning his first term as senator IS
said Ted, he left an oblong box ad.
was a list OF the Legislators whose
votes he had purchased and the
amounts he had paid for their votes.
Patrick and Price started In alarm
at Ted's words The latter unmoved,
carefully drew from his pocket q
small piece OF paper which he con,
suited.
II see." Ted went on, that my
father paid each of you $1,000 apiece
for your votes. Now ! want that
money back"
What" cried both OF the men in
amazement

emphatically, that want my father
bride money back. If don't get 1t I'll
give all these documents TO the paper
Remember, my father Is dead and
you're living and you know L never

Patrick and Price considered the
matter for considerable time. Al
length, Price wrote Ted check fol
the amount while Patrick handed him
$1,000 bill.
Il didn't even get a chance to bust
II before your dad up and died." he
muttered mournfully But | must say
that for a BLACKBOARD and a skunk
you've even got your father skinned.
Thank YOU" replied Ted, apparent
ly pleased. This makes $4,000 OF my
fathers money that I've recovered
And now, another thing. I'm going To
be a candidate for my fathers place
and II you two Dribe-takers don't vote
for me I'll expose you both"
Again the two men were dumb
founded with establishment.
Never" cried Patrick at last.
"Oh, yes you WILL" declared Ted
smiling. Think 1t over. I've done
nothing that you can prove on me
while I've lot that I can prove on
you. Think IL over and vote for me-

ny CYNTHIA GREY.

There Is just as little excuse for a
frown on woman's pretty face as
there Is for the man in the moon to
think. he eau frighten the people on
earth by frowning
A scowl or miiady's face Is full as
distressing as would be a scowl on
the man In the moons face, too!
No man with spark OF life In his
veins but thaws at the sight of pretty
woman. We are all cheered by the
pleasant-faced man in the moon.
There Is no more Justification in a
woman's frown than there Is In a mild
little house cat trying to roar like a
lion.
1t Is absolute idiocy for anybody to
rty to impress others with their i'm
portance or learning by frowning-and
many of them pucker their pretty
brows for this very reason.
One can conceive of only one per-
sonage who has anything like legiti-
mate right TO frown: the very old phil
osopher who has earned his place in
the world of knowledge At that, gen.
uine philosophers usually smile, /.
But the young man, or the young
woman. or the pretty girl, or the baby,
cherishes a fond delusion II any of
them hope to impress the world with
their Importance or intelligence by
cooperating the hoafy-headed old phi, :
copy-catting the hoary-headed old
philosopher whose labors have soured
him.
