From 1.-THE Blue Bird"

From "The Blue Bird"
In Maetarlinck's "Blue Bird" little
Tyltyl goes to some far-off heavenly
place to learn that love ab1des with
him at home. There he meets Mother
Love. He says he wishes to stay with
her always, where she looks so beau
tiful to him. She answers: But it's
just the same thing; I am down be-
low, we are all down below. .
You have come up here only to real
ize and to learn, once for all, how to
see me when you see me down be-
low. Do you understand, Tyl-
tyl, dear? You believe your
self in heaven; but heaven is wher-
ever you and kiss each other .
There are not two mothers, and you
have no other. Every child
has only one; and it is always the
same one and always the most beau
tiful; but you have to know her and
to know how to look.

MORE RAIN IN EVERY DECADE
Statistics Give Proof That the Climate
Of Europe Is Slowly but
Surely Changing.

From almost every country in Eu-
rope last year came complaints OF
rainy weather. In some regions the
crops were almost a total failure, and
everywhere the summer resorts had
a poor season in consequence of the
rain.
Many theories-most of them guess
es-have been put forward to account
for the increasing rain of the last

Perhaps Not.

An Instructor in a church school
where much attention was paid to
sacred history, dwelt particularly on
the phrase And Enoch was not, for
God took him." So many times was
this repeated in connection with the
death of Enoch that he thought even
the dullest pupil would answer cor
rectly when asked in examination:
State in the exact language of the
Bible what is said of Enoch's death.
But this was the answer he got:
"Enoch was not what God took him
for" -Brooklyn Life.

Bunch and l had spent our first day
in disguise at the race track as con-
SENATORS of Uncle Peters fortune.
We had schemed to get him to buy
his bets with Ikey Schwartz, specially
engaged by us, in order to get his
money and give it back to him when
he saw the error of his ways
Bunch, as Dago bootblack, had
had a funny sceance with the real
shines, to which I, unknown to Bunch,
had been spectator.
When l reached the hotel Bunch
was peeling off the makeup, and he
was so mad he couldn't tell his own
name.
"Damunclepeter!" he spluttered as
l entered the room.
Hello, old Cherryripe!" I chortled,
pretending not to know anything
about his throw-down. why didn't
you keep your date with me at the
track?"
"Damunclepeter!" he snorted, and
had all l could do to choke off the
laugh. "He can take his money and
his matches and have prairie fire,
for all l care-l'm through"
What, Bunch!" l exclaimed with
well-simulated Indignation; leave me
fiat now that we've got our plan cook
ing fine? Shake me now after letting
Uncle Peter win $500 of our good
money? Bump me to the tanbark
Just when the Wheeze is ready to
pull? What's the matter with you?
"Matterhell!" yelled Bunch, and
then he told it all. Didn't land your
fat-headed old uncle for shoe shine
five minutes after | struck the
grounds! Didn't l work like beaver
to put the sparkle on his ferryboats,
and didn't tell him there wasn't any
charge SOS to get solid with him and
be able to use him later on! And
what then? Why a mob of real Mac
aronis hustled me away from the
main push and demanded to see my
union card. How'd l know that all
the Guinea boot-blowers belonged to
secret society? They wanted to
know what my name was and l had
to keep my mouth shut like beef
stew. How could tell what my
name is in Italian?"
It's strange fact that one has to
bend almost double in order to un-
lace pair of Reub shoes, so Bunch
couldn't see my face, which was just
as we'll.
They kept me there, husky bunch
Of them, for over an hour, wrapping
up Italian compliments in garlic and
hitting me on the nose with them, "
Bunch went on in deep disgust. Then
fresh Cop rolled up and threw me
off the farm. Damunclepeter!"
BY dint Of much patience, persua-
sion, talk, and no laughter at all,
finally succeeded in getting Bunch
down on the earth again, and he
agreed to go to Ruraldene with me
to begin that weeks visit
The trip to the woodlands cured
him, and by the time we reached

Spider Web Prophecy

Some spiders are weather prophets.
Perhaps some of you have noticed in
the fields in summer morning the
grass covered with little cobwebs.
Under each web there is a spider that
comes out of hole in the ground, and
all the spiders are alike. When these
webs are on the grass It is quite sure
not to rain.
