well as the ends, so the edges which
 resemble the teeth of a saw are called
 serrate, and those which seem dented
 are called dentate, and those which are
 slightly scalloped are called undu1aae. and those more deeply curved sinuate, etc. The study of flowers. you see, can
 never become dull to a person who is wide awake. Every plant seems to . adapt itself to it's relation to light and air, for it's leaves have to have both.
 and the leaf system and root system are the cooperating systems which make wood and produce fruit. Perhaps you have never thought that this years tree is preparing next years foliage If trees did not make their buds with folded leaves in them. this year, there would be no foliage to clothe the trees next spring. All plants work for the glory of next. year while they are the glory of this. There would
 be no continuous beauty if plants were not designed to do this, and perhaps
 this is a hint to us that to sustain
 beautiful lives we must so conduct our selves this year as to maintain the
 beauty of our character for next year.

UNCLE JED,s TALK TO THE WIDE.
 INTAKES.

Last week we talked about the won
 derfui work of the leaves. and now we
 will chat little about the shape of
 the leaves. The leaves of grass which
 stand upright are narrow and long,
 and the leaves of rhubarb which are held out flat are short and broad. There
 are hundreds of different shapes to
 leaves, but the general structural plan
 varies only a little--the ribbed frame being feather shaped. or palm or hand
 shaped. Man has named leaves after things they remind him of. The leaves
 reminding him of the lance are called
 lanceolate, those resembling an arrow head sagittate. those resembling an
 artists knife or spatula. spatulate,
 those egg-shaped oval, those kidney shaped vermiform, etc. What gives shape
 to the leaves is the rib form, the sap pressure and the resistance or atmos- pheric pressure. The morning glory has heart shaped leaf when 1t grows pendant, or hangs with its edge up; but when it grows on the ground and the surface is fully exposed to the sun 1 it becomes palmate, or broader and cleft. The lower leaf of the ivy is what we call the regular leaf, but the upper leaves resemble lilac leaves 1T
 shape; the pondiily has narrow grass shaped leaves under water. and round | lilypads on the surface. Then ths edges of leaves are very different as

This sham poo permits the hair to dry quickly, is very beneficial and will not cause soap and most shampoos are likely to do.
 Mrs. l. c. It is not necessary that sSsy Ssve mTab y0ar er coua smoother and more youthful complexion if you guilt using powder and tried a good lotion. Dissolve four ounces

p.oay's Dream.


 It was Monday morning and school was to begin on Tuesday when Peg gie's mother said:
 You are to go to school tomorrow.
 Peggy said nothing, but taking her doll went out in the woods to think 1t over" as she told her doll When they arrived in the woods she sat down on a messy stone and began to talk to her doll:
 T won't go to school tomorrow. Just won't" she explained to the doll. why. Dorothy they will make you learn how much five and nve are, and I never could learn that l would a great deal rather stay at home and have grandma teach me how to knit a cap for you"
 She paused for a moment and look ing up she beheld strange sight. for she was surrounded by whole army of dolls. all exactly like her own, and l they all seemed to be laughing at her. Pretty soon one of the dolls said:
 "She wants to knit cap for Doro- l thy and she doesn't want 10 learn 10 count the stitches. Heel Hee!' And another said: She will give l the storekeeper dollar for five cents worth of candy and expect two dollars l in change"
 1 And they all went on explaining the l different things she would do until she began to cry. Just then she heard someone call and turning to see whc it was she found she had been sleep 1 ing and that it was nearly night. She jumped up and ran home, and she never said she wouldn't go to schoo again.
