The toma- toes had cooked . little too long, and came out pretty much huddled, but good for Ill that. They were eaten to the last street.-the steak also looked brett ghostly ct the finish

Miss Kate Douglass Wiggin, known in private life as Mrs. George Riggs, says that story telling for children has assumed such importance as an element of education that she thinks it ought to rise to the dignity of profession.

Wheeler, president of the Association of Commerce of the city of Chicago. In commenting on their findings the president says:
 The report discloses a most ex- haustive and critical inquiry into the subject of second-class mail matter after adequate notice to all the par ties in interest Extensive hearings were held by the commission, at which the Postmaster General and the Sec ond and Third Assistant Postmasters General appeared and submitted for nal statements presenting the various contentious of the Post Office depart ment, together with all the relevant official data and evidence relating to the cost of handling and transporting second-class mail matter Certain of the leading magazines were represent ed by counsel, while various other pub lications appeared by representatives.
 The findings of the commission confirm the view that the cost of handling and transporting second- class mail matter is greatly in excess of the postage paid, and that an in- crease in the rate is not only justified by the facts, but is desirable"

nai-It 10 Worked With Spoons.
A variation Of blind mans bluff may
be played in this fashion: Get n lighted
candlestick, handkerchief and two
tablespoons. Blindfold one Of the party,
give him the spoons, one in each hand.
and place him in the middle of large
ring of chairs on which the rest of the
party are seated and tell him that he
must try to blow out the light rs it is
passed quickly from hand to hand by
the others.
The blind man will find this diff
cult task to accomplish, and even when
be has done SO his troubles are not
over. He must then try to guess who
the person is who was holding the light
when 1t was blown out. But he is not
allowed to feel the person, as in ord-
nary blind mans bluff; that would be
far too easy. He can only feel with
the spoons.
He feels the PERSONS head to see il
he has long or short hair, and he feels
how the dress is trimmed and tries to
remember who is wearing a dress
trimmed that way, and lie puts the
cold spoon down his neck. and then
the person says "Ouch!" and the blind
man cries, why, it's Billyw and tears
of the bandage. And then it is Billys
turn to stand in the circle and blow
out the candle and try to guess who is
who with the help Of cold tablespoons.

WHY you SIGH.
The Result Of Not Taking Enough
Oxygen Into the Lungs,

When any one signs uncOnSciOusly
IT means that he has been taking short
bre:.ths and not drawing sufficient
oxygen into the lungs. Finally the
lungs must have more oxygen, they
are hungry for 1t. and so the lungs ex-
ert their right and actually force you
to take in great breath of air.
This gives them the needed oxygen.
and they can go on with their work
for awhile longer. when they will
force another sigh" which is in real-
gen in spite OF yourself.--New York
