CENTRAL PARK SQUIRRELS.

Dear Little Men and Little Women: I am
going TO tell you about the dear little SPUR
rels that have their home in Central Park.
Every Sunday morning [ go over TO see
and feed the squirrels. They are the tam
est ana prettiest little creatures 1 have
ever seen, and when I feed them they come
right up on the bench I am sitting on ana
take the peanuts I give them and go right
away and bury them. Last Sunday one OF
them came right up on my lap and took
the nut I gave him and ran away and
buried it. The next minute he came right
up my lap again, popped his head in
the bag OF nuts that was lying there and
took 4 peanut. It is very interesting TO
watch them go and bury their nuts in
many different places, and if any of my
readers live in New York City they ought
TO go and see them do it. Very sincerely
yours, VIOLET MACQUEEN aged 10)

TROLLEY, THE GROUNDING.

Dear Little Men and Little Women: | am
going to tell you about one of my pets. d
little tame grounding that one OF the
Inotormen on q trolley picked up along
the track put in a tomato can and gave to
me on June II, 1909. He was a wild little
fellow for about week. then he got tanner
and in a few weeks l could pick him up
and play with him. He is very shy and
afraid of strangers. We named him Trolley
He would be away all day beneath the
stone wall at the back of the yard. but
When called toward evening would come
into the house He would eat about every
thing except meat and when hungry would
chase my mother around the room. chat
tsring all the time.
When eating d ginger snap he sat upon
his launches, took hold of it with his fore
feet ana ate through the middle till the out
side OF the cake came up to his ears. We
have two pet cats which he annoyed very
much chasing them about from one place
to another He played just like a kitten and
went from one room into another, running
with all his might and then turning and
he began TO dig a hole in the lower part
of the barn and carry leaves to it. He
was by this time very fat and lazy. He
went into the hole one noon and did not
come out till the next noon and finally
out at all. We are anXiously waiting for
him To appear again Yours truly.

Aeroplane Terrors,

While that well-known medical au'
thority, the London Lancet, admits
that mechanical difficulties in connec-
tion with aero travelling are rapidly
being surmounted, it points out that
even were they all disposed of a trip
through the air would still involve a
good deal of nerve. "The giddy
height" it says, will have to be
faced the sudden swoop down or rise
upward, with its disagreeable effects
for great many people, will have to
be reckoned with.
"Seastckness," it continues, "is a
terror to many people, and the
chances are that air sickness will be
worse. Most persons, again, have ex-
perienced the unpleasant feeling in a
life when it commences it's descent,
or in a swing when, like the pendu-
lum, it swings back.
Not a few persons refuse to stand
close to the edge OF a cliff or to trust
themselves to look down into a vast
chasm Immediately beneath their feet
owing to vague feelings Of giddiness,
fears of falling arising out Of a sense
Of a jeopardized equilibrium"
