Tha Loving Cup.

There are Il great many stories told
of the origin of the loving cup. and
perhaps the following is the most in
teresting:
In the eleventh century Margaret
Atheling. the wife Of Malcolm Ken
more, became disgusted with the way
In which the Scotch mobiles left the
dining table before her chaplain had
time to say grace. SO she promised all
those who could be induced TO wait for
this ceremony Il draft of the ch0i est
wine from large gold cup. which
was passed from man to man around
the table after grace had been pro
nounced. The bribe offered by the
beautiful young queen was too inviting
for the mobiles to refuse, and they all
stayed in consequence. The custom of
passing around the grace cup" as II
was called at first, became so popular
that 1t was observed all over the coun-
try, and every person of Importance in
the middle ages could boast of being
the owner of one.

FOR The CHILDREN
Birthday Surprises.

The little girl who liked to sew
But couldn't bear to read-Oh, no.
Last birthday found, strange to relate,
A row of books beside her plate
Instead of a new WorkboX-dear!
She thought ii was 50 very queer
And cried a bit At last she took
Tie very smallest, thinnest book,
Ana though she thought her heart would
break,
She read it through for mothers sake.
And then she read them all and, 10,
She likes TO read as well as sew!
The little girl who liked to read
But not to seW-oh. no, indeed
A lovely Wori,boX she received
Upon her birthday. How she grieved
At thIrlbc needle Gaze and thread!
She wanted picture books instead
And thought She surely never could
Say THANK YOU! for them and be good
At last III teas she set to work
And seWed and seWed and did not shirk,
Till now no clothes her doillos need.
She likes to sew as we'll as read.

greeted by the junior class numerals
painted on the sidewalks. The seniors
had painted their letters all around

done by some one not in either of the
