If my school report has been good,
Mother she smiles and says, Kathleen,
You may tie on your warm red hood,
And go over to Dorothys house."
CTS only around the block)
And then she gives me a kiss and says,
BE back before six o'clock
Oh goodness! what times have
At playing we're grown up big!
Curly shavings we stick in our hair;
They make, oh. the loveliest wig;
Then Dorothy's mothers bonnets
Are so becoming, with wells.
And big long aprons tied on in back
Make the gracefulest kind Of trails.
And then I call upon Dorothy;
Next, Dorothy comes to see me;
We put on our grandest politeness
And invite each other to tea;
We talk great deal bout the weather,
And hope we won't have any rain;
Then we bow as we sweetly say, Goodbye,
today;
I'd like you to come soon again"

Cook explains his mental condi-

condition when sleep became impos-

this, and right here ] say that any

check our line of march. They cor

of pain engendered in my mind a
conviction which no figures could

Thought IL Was the Pole.
The thing that convinced DR.. Cook
and his Eskimos that he reached the
pole was the fact that they attained

and midnight were of equal length.
AT noon," he says, ''the shadow
represented in its length the altitude
of the sun, about 10 degrees. At 6
O'Clock in the morning IL was the
same. Let us, for the sake of argu-
ment, grant that all our instru-
mental observations are wrong. Here
is condition of things in which I
still believe the eye without instru-
mental assistance places the sun at
about the same height for every
hour OF the day and night"

The stina Of a Bee.

An eastern fable tells of potentate
who demanded that there should be
brought to him the stings of thou
sand bees killed because one of their
colony had dared commit lese majesty
by singing the hand of royalty When
they were brought In u tiny golden
thimble the king was so amazed to
find that thousand of the hypoder.
mic points made such little mass
that he issued manifesto to the ef.
feet that thereafter no person within
the bounds of the kingdom should
complain at the sting of bee. The
lesson of the fable is that petty an
noyances hurt because they are exag
gerated In the mind: that when they
are seen In their actual proportions
they are so slight as to merit only
contempt. How much comfort would
come to the majority of persons If
they could but see The tiny size of the
bee stings that lead them TO acts of
petulance. words of anger. expressions
of reproach. The bee sting annoy
ances have caused lifelong breaches OF
friendship. They have broken up fam.
lies and caused anger and resentment
to take the place of love and fealty.-
