My First Huntinn Trip.

One Saturday afternoon my father, Norman Baker George Noel and my self went out hunting. Norman, fath- CT and l each had a shotgun.
 After we had gone little way, papa shot gray squirrel just as he was go- ing into his burrow. A little way ahead we saw three large chestnut trees. So we watched them awhile to see if a squirrel would show his head We did not see any there, so we went on.
 We went a little way farther, when papa shot woodcocl. We then start ed for home
 At the end of an opening was an old hollow tree, 1 went down where it was and saw gray squirrel. I fired for the first time with a shotgun and kill ed my first gray.
 After while our dog, Nellie, started up a partridge, and it flew into a swamp. It was so far away that we could not get a shot at 1t. So we went after it.
 A gray squirrel ran down a tree that grew right side of the brook that ran through the swamp. Norman fired at him, but missed him. I did not aim, but fired in that direction and hit him enough so I could catch him and kill 1 him.
 George then went up and pulled a 1 grapevine that ran through nest. Out came MT. Squirrel Norman fired, but missed. I fired and missed Then Nor man fired and killed him. l I turned around and saw a squirrel run down tree, but before I could 1 fire he had run too far to shoot at; but fired just the same. l did not hit 1 him.
 l I looked up and saw a partridge whiz by me with feathers flying out i of her, for Norman had given her a dose of sixes (6's). She flew over a l hill out of sight. Just then I heard papa shoot and found he had killed a gray.
 George saw a squirrel on a tree over 1 his head. Papa let him take his gun and shoot the squirrel. We then went after the partridge Norman had hit but we couldn't find her. We went home feeling tired, but full of joy over 1 our good luck.

GET OUT THE VOTE.

Apathy is a serious political malady, and the quicker it is dispeled the bet ter it always is for the possessor and his interests. The republicans have the opportunity next Monday to elect the city ticket, and. being the big year 1t will carry with it the control of tho city government It is highly important that discretion should De exercised by the voters at large in the selection of men who are to take control of the city's business. Too often has the municipality suffered from the inclination to let the contest 60 by default which is an ignoble and un-American attitude.
 The republican ticket embraces men who are well and favorably known in the party, who are accustomed in many instances with the operation of the city's business and have the i'm portant qualification Of having made a success Of their own personal business. Being men of affairs they have the welfare of the city at heart and full reliance can be placed upon their abil- fly and intentions.
 The opportunity of being given the privilege of voting for a ticket which bears the full sanction of the unani- nous republican caucus should arouse every republican voter to the full realization of the importance of every ono participating and to the keenest interest in the welfare of the party and the city.

 brook, Josie and me, with a fishing hook And the very same birdies sang again Over and over, and just as plain, "Naugh-tee May! ran away" And Josie heard him, too. Now, how do you suppose he knew? Josie, she guesses what heard Was just my conscience, stead of a
 bird; But the water looked so scowly and
 black, We took hold of hands and ran right
 back;
 And all the way we heard it say: That is the best thing to do,' And mamma, she said so, too,

An InvaIid,a supnsr.

T can't eat any more of this nasty stuff" said Phoebe to her nurse.
 Phoebe had been i'll with the measles and while in bed had been given oranges and jelly and all kinds of nice things, and when she got well again she did not at all like eating her usual supper of bread and milk.
 Don't be naughty, Miss Phoebe" re- piled Nurse. but finish your supper without any more nonsense!
 T can't and won't!" cried Phoebe, rubbing her eyes to make the tears come.
 Here's the Master coming upstairs! . cried Nurse warningly. T wonder what he'll say when he sees such an ugly face!"
 The door opened and in came Father with a brown paper parcel in his hand.

 Father united the cords, and with eager haste Phoebe opened the box and beheld the loveliest doll in the world.

Two Little Feet,
ANON.

When James White was a very small boy his papa bought him a pair of button boots. They had cloth tops and kid toes and heels. James danced for joy when he saw them.
 You shall wear them tomorrow, said his papa.
 James went to bed early that night, for he wanted tomorrow to come quickly
 The next morning his sister put on the boots for him before he went to school James went about saying:
 Two little feet, two little feet" all the morning.
 They must be good little feet, and not get into mischief" said papa.
 James mother was expecting some friends to tea.
 T must make some cake" said his mother, land James can come into the kitchen if he will be good"
 James promised to be good It was great fun to see his mamma beat the eggs. He had a little taste of the sugar and butter when 1t was all beat en up white.
 Then he saw the flour put in slowly.
 At last it was ready for the oven. When it was done his mamma wanted the frosting to grow hard. She put tuS NeAAAS S4 S4AS FA0Sno WNCA IL W elS cool.
 Do not touch it with your fingers" :" said she to her little boy, Mamma wants it to look very nice"
 James mamma went back to the kitchen to make a salad.
 James was playing on the piazza.
 He came in once or twice and said: Two little feet. mamma, two little feet
 Yes, my dear; I know the little toots are pretty"
 By and by Mrs. White went out on the piazza, What do you think she saw? Her little boy had been stand ing on the loaf of cake. She could see the shape of both little boots.
 James looked at his mamma and said
 Pretty boots; two little feet make mammals cake all pretty" Mamma did not think so, When she told the company, one of them said: T must have a piece of James cake. I want the stamp of the two little feet. He thought he was help ing mammal"
 Then all the visitors ate a piece o1 the cake and said:
 May the little feet always walk ir the right way, and climb over al things as easily as they climbed over | the top of mammals cake" l GEO. D. HOLLINGSWO Age 10 l Norwich.

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN

We are assured on all sides that sii- ence is no enemy of religion
 Maybe not. But 1t is certainly an enemy to woman.
 The devout scientist may still wor- ship the Deity. but there is ground for the fear that the young psychologist and anatomist will cease to believe that the female of the species is an angel.
 He knows the composition of her material frame and the laws govern ing her mind. Instead of calling her a pale, sweet lily, he says she's anae- mic. She Is no more the dove, the rose, and the star. She is cataleptic phelgmatic or authenticated
 It is not the style to believe in sin now a-days. Woman lost much when she ceased to be a sin.
 It seems strange to the poet to see woman clamoring for equal rights. It is like a queen crying to be released from her palace so that she may go down and cook.
 Why does the angel of my dreams, the star of my existence, whose foot should be proud to kiss, why does the lady want to be equal of the natter and the butcher?
 Go on, o scientists and liberty seek CTS, with your iconoclasm; smash the immortals and snatch away all veils if you will but spare my Sophronisba.

AVOID sPolLs SYSTEM.

At a time when the president is ad- vocating that the postofices be placed in the classified service to do away with the federal patronage wrong, there should be an inclination to strengthen the merit system, which is threatened by the rider in the legisla- tive. executive and judicial appropria- ton bill under section five. This passed the house providing that the terms of ali persons now in the service shall expire on July l, 1917 and that all appointments made on and after July i 1913, be for terms of five years. Reappointments may be made without examination at the end of this term n the discretion of the head of the department of persons who are at the tune up to a fair standard of effi- ciency" and who are capable of rem dering a full measure of service in return for" their salaries.
 In it's comment on the bill, Good Government says: This is the sys- tenn ostensibly for securing efficiency in the public service which 1t is pro- posed to graft on the administration Of public business. The proposition is made in the face of full experience of nearly a century with the operation Of tenure of office act in the face and almost, it would seem, as the an swer to the urgent recommendation of the president that terms already es- abolished by law for local offices be abolished as the first and essential step toward efficiency in these offices. It is a direct blow at efficiency. It IS an insidious attack on the integrity of the merit system"
 The bill at once offers the oppor- tunity for pernicious legislation, step backward instead of forward. It opens an additional avenue for political pat ronage and but for the striking out | by the house of two provisos in sec ton five it would still have been more dangerous. Had the house been re- l publican, the rider would not have 1 passed and it is important the senate | should block it.

AUTO DRIVING.

It is not necessary to set trap te discover instances of reckless auto erivlhg each and every day not only cn the outskirts where good reads tempt the drivers to speed but in the eengested portions of the city the same spirit Is manifested by the chauffeurs and owners of the auto. Auto drivers acknowledge that they take all the chances possible and that instead of the law being a deterrent 1t Is an accident or a close call for one, that causes them to consider the course they are following,
 There are plenty of laws on the statute books of the state to stop the reckless driving of the machines which threaten the life and limb of those within and without the car but they are not properly enforced. The daily winkng 1t the law is an encour- agement to continue it. and, like the riding of the bicycle on the side walks, it will be done until it Is shown that the authorities intend that the law shall be enforced, Thankfully. all auto drivers are not in the reckless class. but it is those intended to be reached who have no respect for the law.
 On the subject of reckless autoing, Governor Baldwin joins ex Mayor 1homs of Waterbury in the latter's utterances against so many reckless automobilists and there are thousands who will agree with them, but the suggestion that the legislature should enact more law or further restrictions would hardly accomplish the end de- sired, since the present laws are not enforced. There are enough auto laws now to keep the drivers within bounds if they are made to respect them,

The Little Green Tents

HE Little Green Tents where the soldiers sleep,
 and the sunbeams play and the women weep covered with flowers today; and between the tents walk the weary few who were young and stalvart in 'sixty-two, when they went to the war away The little green tents are built of sod and they not long, and they not broad, but the soldiers have lots of roo and the sod part of the land they saved when the flag of the enemy darkly waved, the symbol of dole and doom. The little green tent is thing divine the little green tent countrys shrine, where patriots nee and pray; and the brave men left so old, SO few were young and stalwart in sixy-two, when they went to the away.

The Bundle of Rods.

A man had seven sons who were always quarreling. They left their studies and work to quarrel. Some bad men were looking forward to the death of their father to cheat the sons out of their property by making them quarrel about it.
 The good old man one day called his sons around him. He laid before them seven sticks which were bound to- gether, and said:
 T will reward the one who can break this bundle"
 Each one tried but could not break tt. After long but vain trial they said it could not be done. And yet nothing is easier" said the father. He then broke the bundle, one by one, with perfect ease, "Ah!" said the father, "as it is with these sticks, so it will be with you, my sons. So long as you are united you will prosper, and no one can injure you; but if the bond of union be broken it will happen to you as it did to the sticks"

A Rainy Dsv.
Taftville.

It was raining hard and there were few people on the street In a man sion at one of the windows was a girl with her face pressed hard against the pane. The rain had spoiled their pleasure, so you know why she looked so desolate. In the room was the nurse, with the baby; and the other three children were cuddled at her feet.
 There were five Richard. Myrtle, John, Francis and James, the baby. The oldest girl said;
 70 dearl I wish l could think of some games"
 Then nurse said to her: "No games to play? Couldn't you play you were actors and actresses ?'
 "Oh, yes; we could do that! We'll ask mother if we can have some of the clothes in the garret"
 Away they went and soon appeared carrying colthes. They were soon ar rayed in them and their first play was Beauty and the Beast" and they played other games. Soon the tea bell rang. and they said to one another that they would know what to play on another rainy day.
