Daddy's Bedtime
q. Thus Good Luck
Goes Ever With
Good Pluck

"fH<Ryt to think that ou ire living in America about 1856 years ago. said
daddy to Jack a d Evelyn.
IF you can TO this then you will think that the best and great-
American soldiers who are fighting against the English.
George Washington vas a great and good man, and me of the best things
about him vas that when he once thought that 1T vas right to do anything be
went ahead till he had done it.
80 when he beheved that the Americans ought to be free from the
erouchy and greedy old king who put his hand into their pockets whenever
he could Washington went right ahead fighting against King Georges soldiers.
Though his own soldiers knew little about fighting and had seldom enough to
eat or wear and often gTunbled, Washington WIS never too doHnheared to
light whenever be got a chance. He kept right O fighting wen when beaten.
and, as people who neverg give up are apt to do, he won.
The British said he Was lucky. but perhaps Providence had something to
do with his luck For instance, after the battle Of Long Island, when thu
Americans had been badly beaten and there seemed little chance for the
army to get away, luck sent n of those heavy fogs that con there's even to
this day ~ANes
While Washington had been in New York another general had charge OF
the Americans In the fight When he found things were going badly with the
Americans Washington went yer to Long Island. Gathering together all the
boats he could, he hastily sent the soldiers to New Yerk. Owing to the dense
fog the English could rot see what las going on.
But there ws a certain woman living near the ferry. Because they
thought her husband a helping The English her husband had been sent
away from home by the Americans
THE woman made up her mind to pay them back for this and she hurried
her negro servant on . tell the English general that the Americans were
crossing the i've lin the fog
Could ANYTHING have looked worsef For the Anedcansa This Negro reached
the British amp and spoke to an officer It happened to be a Hessian, a OF
the Germans who We're hired BY the English to fight the Americans Tho
officer could not speak English, md he thought the negro was a SPY
So he put hsa under arrest, and 1t was only hours after the Americans wss
safely o the other side that the English learned what had happened
You can call this luck, but I call 1t Providence"

NEW STYLES or FOOTWEAR
According TO Rumor There Are TO Be
Many Changes In the voSus
Next Spring.

AS an Indication of the styles of
footwear that will be In vogue next
spring In Great Britain It may be RS
marked that ladies' low shoes will ba
manufactured without O fastening:
and whereas at the present time the
whole sole is black, the upper parts
will be colcred and the lower parts
remain black as before, with the ex-
eeption of the heels, which will be
made OF wood covered with tinseI, eel
luloid on canvas and colored attrae-
lively. which coloring need not coin
eide Oh blend with the upper part OF
the shoe, but may appear as s bright
colored contrast.
A demand has arisen. and IL is
stated to be increasing, for shoes to
match the dress. This Is naturally
favored by shoe manufacturers, as It
involves additional purchases. Soft
suede and glace kids, dyed heIlotrope.
ceriss, blue and other shades. are ex-
psctsd to form exceedingly fashionable
wear IN the coming spring and sum.
