BIG Hats Defended.

Those big hats are all right, all
right" said the man. II want my
wife To wear one on week days and
sundays, night and morning. Why?
They keep her from getting her head
knocked off, that is why. All her
life she has had the habit OF poking
her head through cab windows, car
windows. the windows OF any old
thing she happened to be riding in.
Pillars, posts and passing vehicles
grazed her nose, but possible behead-
ings had no terror for her But
since she has taken to wearing big
hats she has 10 keep her head inside

crazy by those whom he was seeking
to benefit by an operation that justi-

where the ClermOnt was building.

The Little Girl Who
Didn't Like Her Name

She talked to the flower and had II
moved many times day SO that IT might
nod its head toward her. but the proud
lily would not be friendly. 1t would not
even look at Daisy. for its only pastime
was peering out of the window or nodding
it's pretty head to the trees ana birds
outside. The lily plant was little COM
pany for poor. disappointed Daisy. so
gradually she grew to dislike the selfish
visitor
One afternoon troop of merry children
from sDaisy's school came to visit their
playmate. Their laughter could be heard
long before their CHEEKY faces could be
seen. No wonder they were happy. for
each carried a large bunch of daisies.
Into Dasy's little room they rushed. fair
ly covering the white bed with pretty
flowers. Daisies, daisies. daisies. every
where.
Even a little Daisy in the bed"
laughed Marjory. The sick girl Rugged
the punches of yellow and white flowers.
After the children had gone home Daisy
did not feel as lonesome as she had be-
fore because now she had company
Every morning the blossoms woke up
when Daisy did and seemed to talk back
to her when she petted them and told
them stories of her doll babies at home.
The child and the flowers grew to be
such friends that Daisy called them her
little sisters. Every day Daisy loved the
company more and more. Gradually the
proud lily in the window was forgotten
altogether and the girl was heard to say
that she would rather be Daisy" than
any flower in the world.

THE PRESENTS
FROM TOWN

HE farmhouse was far away
from the city, so Uncle Rob-
ert and Aunt Janet had to
make an early start ito go
to town. as they called their
shopping trip. The night before Fred
and Wallace promised to stay close by
the house and also to keep an eye on
the risky colt down in the pasture 1t
seemed very strange for the little visitors
in the country to breakfast alone that
morning. but by the time they were up
Uncle Roberts horse had Travelled sew
eral long miles toward Urbton The
boys aunt and uncle at that time hap
pened to be busily planning what pres

to their little relatives. The morning at
the farm went very slowly
Both Fred and Wallace had longings
to roam into the woods. Neither men,
toned 1t at first, but 1t was the for
hidden swimming branch that was tempt
ing the children away from the house
and their watch of playful Dick. II
the cclt was not made to content himself
in the pasture. he would scamper away
to find field Of sweet green corn.
Let's go down to the road. Wallace .
suggested Fred.
We'll. that surely could be no harm.
I'm ready"
The truants walked of slowly at first,
for they really knew that they were do
ing what was wrong. After while their
steps grew quicker and quicker until be-
fore they realized II they had reached
the branch where the clear. cool water
sang It's happy song. Just little wading

Fred and Wallace actually bundled their

knew that was wrong, but little by little
they had forgotten all about their prom

Uncle Robert had always said was very
dangerous.
Help. help" cried Fred. for he had
stepped into a hole SO suddenly that in
his fright he could not swim. Wallace
went to his brothers rescue. but could
give him little help. Soon he too shouted
very loudly. By good chance II happened
that a workman who had been busy
splitting rails close by saw the danger the
boys were in. SO ran to their aid. Ii 1t

JACK. neither Uncle Robert nor Aunt
Janet would have ever seen either of
their nephews alive again When the
grown folks came hcme they expected to
have such good time in seeing the
children happy with the bathing suits
they had brought. Uncle Robert had de-
cided to take the boys in bathing in
part Of the branch which he knew to be
safe. He knew that would please the
boys.
Instead of this happy surprise for the
children the boys had given their aunt
and uncle surprise. for when the re-
turn trip from town was made Aunt
Janet was badly frightened to find the
two boys In bed and the good oiu coun-
try doctor standing near them with a
bottle or bitter medicine in his hand. The
boys soon got well. but I am afraid that
they never got the bathing suits from
town, as their poor aunt was too wor-
ried to ever let them go into the branch
again. They enjoyed the candy and other
good things which Uncle Robert had
brought them. but they felt very sorry
when they heard that the pet colt had
gotten into the corn and eaten itself sick.

Earth'S Sun Shades.

DROUD little girls like to carry parasols
= or sun shades when the great ball Of
fire in the sky is shining down on their
heads. Boys like to sit In the shade Of
biz leafy trees or steal away into their
little tents which shut out the sun.
Mother usually closes the shutters or
draws the shades when she wishes to
keep out the hot rays of the sun furnace.
All of these shades are good, but how
small they seem when We look at the
earth's great sun shades. Have you ever
seen them? Well, perhaps you did not
call them sun shades, for most boys and
girls call them clouds. Have you ever no.
ticed how cool and pleasant 1t is in the
summer when a nice big cloud hides the
sun from the earth? These sun shades
are made of air and moisture. Do You
not think that summer would seem very
long If Mother Nature gave us no sun
shades?
