MEANT VACATION FOR MOTHER
Her Idea OF Relaxation and Complete
Change Was Entirely Within
Her Own Mind.

Mrs. Emberson did all the cooking,
washing, mending and other house
work for her family OF five. Among
her other duties was the making and
baking of five loaves of bread three
times week, for Mr.. Emerson and
the growing children had hearty ap.
petites.
AT last Mrs. Emerson decided she
must have vacation.
Il feel" she told her husband, that
II | had to stand up to that bread
board and make one more batch OF
bread | should drop dead. I've got to
have change
Mr.. Emerson was more than will
Ing. He had often urged her to take
a rest. II was decided that she should
pack up that very day and 60 to visit
her younger sister in Kansas.
Nov, Laura" said Mrs. Emerson,
as soon as she had got into a loose
house dress and dropped into an easy
chair, I've come to rest and visit.
don't want you ever to ask me what /
want to eat, or expect me to turn my
hand to help with thing. I'm sick
and tired of homework, and | don't
want even to hear it mentioned
"All right" said Laura, laughing
you can depend on me. I've always
wanted you to rest and let somebody
else take the work and worry for a
little while"
At dinner the second day Mrs. En-.
berson said to her brother-in-law,
John, do you like bakers bread?"
NO" confessed John. 1--WE don't
any of us like 1t, but Laura has so
much to do that insist on buying the
bread"
You bring home some yeast this
evening" said Mrs. Emerson, ''and
I'll make you some home made bread"
Two weeks later, when Mrs. EN-,
berson returned home. her husband
was delighted to see how fresh and
rested she looked. Nevertheless, he
tried to speak severely:
Now see here, Martha, | thought
you went for a rest and change Laura
wrote that you had been baking bread
for them ever since you got there.
I'd like to know what change there
was in that"
o." and Mrs. Emerson laughed
happily, ut was a change OF bread
boards!"-Youth's Companion.

Gribbllna.

They have coined a new word in
England, aud that word is "gribbling.
The word has taken it's rise. from the
writings of Francis Gribble, an Eng
fish author. who spends most of his
time in writing up the love affairs OF
distinguished persons, and especially
of those love affairs that We're more
i or less sordid, or ended unhappily
Mr. Gribble is. indeed, an expert at
this sort of thing, He does it much
better than anybody else; much bet
ter, by far, than Richard lie Caffeine
even did it. For one thing, Mr. Crib,
BILE has passion or what appears to
be passion. for the truth in these
matters, and If we must have love
episodes written up, il is far better
that they should he written up truth
fully than that they should be writ.
ten up falsely But we cannot avoid
feeling that gribbling is mistake
when 1t becomes the main passion OF
mans life, as it is in the case OF
Francis Gribble.

G. q. s. DEFINES Socialism.

George Bernard Shaw says: Social
ism means equal division of the ma.
tional income among all the inhab-
itants of the country, of the main
tenanee of that equal division as an
inysrlsble social postulate to the very
root of the constitution The prob
lem socialism offers to politicians and
economists is how to make this pos
tulate workable
Mr.. Shaw believes that the process
of redistributing income already be-
gun by legislation, together with the
pooling tendencies of capital. miIi
lead to an examination OF the over
whelming objections to income liz
