INDIAN RETURNS THE MONEY
Conscience Kept Him Awake All
Night So That He Could Not
Sleep, So Gave Up Coin.

An Indian once asked his neighbor
for some tobacco. The neighbor put
his hand in his pocket and gave him
handful. The next morning the In
dian came again, and brought quar-
ter-dollar which he had found be-
tween the tobacco. The neighbor was
surprised at such honesty, and asked
the Indian why he had not kept the
money.
1T is just like this he answered,
lin my heart I have good man and a
bad man. The good man said: The
money does not belong to you; give
it back to it's owner The bad man
said: 1T has been given to you; it
belongs to YOU The good man re-
piled: That is not true, and such con-
duct is evil; the tobacco belongs to
you, but the money belongs to him
who has given it away by mistake;
you must give it back again The
bad man answered: Think no more
about it and do not let such trifle
disturb you. Keep the money l was
in doubt as to which voice of my
heart should listen to-. At last | lay
down in bed, but the good man and
the bad man quarreled so all the
night in my heart that l had no
peace, so l felt obliged to bring you
back your money"

"RAILRoAD" is JOLLY GAME
Each Youngster Represents Part Of
Train or officiaI-Breaks Up in
Merry Confusion.

A very jolly game which any child
will grasp readily if he or she is not
already familiar with it, is called
The Railroad"
For this the children stand in
ring and each receives the name Of
some part of the train or of some Of
fetal. Thus one youngster becomes
the rails, another the whistle, another
the steam, another the conductor, and
SO forth. Some older person then in
vents Cor reads aloud) little story
into which all the different parts are
mentioned, one by one. AS such child
hears his fictitious name mentioned
he rises and initiates the thing he
represents. For example, the whistle
toots, the steam puffs, the conductor
pulls the bell-rope and cries "All
aboard the wheels begin to revolve,
etc.
At the very end of the story, after
each part has been played couple
OF times, there is a mention of ter
rible collision" Here all the chill
dren break ranks and rush together
in confusion and the game ends in a
merry uproar.

the razor is ground in this lather,
