MY PARTY.

My birthday was on the fifth Of
June and my mother told me I might
have a party If I wished SO I began at
once planning. My father went to
town on the day before the party so
sent for some invitation cards which
wrote to my friends which I wanted
to be there invited twenty of my
friends and told them to be at our
house at $50 p. m. on the evening of
the entertainment which was Tues
day. And to my great wish it was
fine evening.
We were very busy all the day. My
mamma made me very nice birthday
cake and as my age was II years there
was, ~ small wax candles burned on
the cake For luncheon we had cake,
ice cream, fruit salad, fruit and candy.
After luncheon we went out on the
lawn and played games. At dark we
came into the house and played games
such as chess and dominos. All the
guests departed at ten o'clock saying
they had very pleasant time. I re-
ceived many nice presents. Among
them were a gold bracelet from my
mother a pair Of ribbons and a nice
velvet purse from my cousin and many
other presents.

One day she borrowed Rosa Lees

She kept on getting worse. She did
not care whether she ever learned to
take care Of her things or not.
One day her aunt sent her a new
dress. Mary put it on and went skating.
She fell down and broke the Ice and
got her new dress all wet. She forgot
to thank her aunt for it. One day her
aunt sent her letter asking her If she
got her new dress. Mary had forgotten
about 1t so she wrote no.
Mary's aunt sent her another dress
as soon as she heard from her.
Mary put on her new dress and went
down town.
When Mary got there she saw her
aunt coming down the street. Mary did
not know she was coming. Mary's aunt
asked her where got her new dress.
Mary said she bought it. Mary's aunt
said that the dress was the one that
she sent to her. She would not let

task and end the suspense for both
He sighted the animals breast and
fired, but bounding leap at the mo
ment led the bullet to pierce the
muscle of fore leg and thence to
pass directly through the strands OF
the rope. Thus weakened, they parted
with the strain, and Prince fled wildly
down the slope, leaving in his wake a
trail of blood. A second shot went
wild.
At the house David had been missed,
and the alarmed parents instinctively
turned in the direction Of the grove.
When the reached the pond they be-
held with agonized eyes, far out on
the water, the floating canoe-the
morning sun shining on its upturned
keel.
With sickening dread they hurried
along the path to the opposite shore.
Jensen from the slope, and the par
ents from the pathway, sighted at the
same moment two objects on the
grassy bank close to the waters edge
"a dog and child. Prince, dripping
with water, and faint from the loss OF
blood and great physical strain, lay
with head heavy on the turf, dim
ness over his half-closed eyes. David
with torn blouse, showing traces or
rescuing teeth, was unconscious-h1s
pretty head close to his friends
breast.
The picture told its own story. Lit
tie more need be said. The child,
David, was restored to consciousness,
to life and health. With grateful
hearts the loving parents watched his
+ ecovery. And upon Prince was be-
slowed scarcely less care than that

ried to the bed beneath the same roof
that covered his little master; the
limb was carefully dressed,
and everything done for his comfort.
And so it came about that his return
to health, though slower, was In the
end quite as complete.
The second morning David was per-
mitted to visit him. The stubby tall
wagged more feebly but with the
old welcome, and the honest
eyes lighted with the glad loving look
that made David think him "beauti-
full"
The boy put his arms around the
stretched out neck and his hands
touched something hard-a collar. He
pushed away the rough hair and be-
held it's bright newness, it's silver
He turned 1t gladly to the
light and read the words on the silver
plate: "A Prince that belongs to

NY FRIEND ELIZABETH,

'Lizzie," called Mrs Grey, where
are your
I'm out in the yard, but if there is
anything l hate it is to be called
Lizzie. My name Is Elizabeth"
Mrs. Grey sighed and went back to
the kitchen. II don't know what l
will do with her." she said, "she gets
saucier every day" Mrs. Grey had
tried every way to punish Elizabeth
but she was as bad as ever. Pretty
soon Elizabeth came into the kitchen
and ask II she could go to the woods
and gather flowers.
II would rather you wouldn't 60, my
DEAR" Mrs. Grey said. There are
snakes in the woods"
Elizabeth said nothing, but turned
quickly and went out with deter
mined look on her face. Mrs. Grey
watched her go out but she didn't go
away then. She knew her mother was
looking at her and she waited till she
would go to her work. After she knew
her mother was not looking she start
ed for the woods as fast as she could
run. She ran on and on and at last
she reached the woods.
It was just as Mrs. Grey said, there
were many snakes In the woods. Some
of which were very poisonous. There
were many flowers on the edge Of the
woods but they didn't satisfy her. SO
she walked a little way in among the
tall trees. She was very tired and sat
down on log to rest. There was
a flower by the log and she put her
hand down to pick it.
She heard q noise like rattlesnake
and she thought it was a bug.
She put her hand on a rattlesnake
It sprane at her and bit her hand. She
screamed and ran towards the en-.
trance Of the woods. She reached a
path and fell unconscious.
Just then some hunters came that
way and saw her fall. They hurried
to her and lifted her up. One man
held her on his horse and took her
home.
Her mother was looking every
where for her. When she saw her
with her arm spotted and swollen she
cried out, "Oh, my poor disobedient
child" She tainted and fell at the
horses feet. They called the doctor
and Elizabeth was taken to hospital.
Her mother was left at home with an
other doctor and friends. It was not
long until she recovered and was TAX
en- to the hospital to see Elizabeth.
Meanwhile I will tell, you what l
think Elizabeth dreamed Of In her deep
sleep. l think fairy came to her
and said. "Ah, Elizabeth, you have
been very bad girl. A very, very
bad child indeed The fairy was very
