The May Flies

ne Ma1 Ftfes.
 Two large white butterflies flew over a little brook one warm day in May. There were a great many flies dancing over the water as they passed. md they flew around a gew. times and watched them.
 What funny little things" said one butterfly Do you know what they are called?'
 Yes" answered the other; those are May flies. and I can tell you some thing very strange about them"
 Oh said the first. what is it?'
 They haven't any mouthsi" said the second.
 Not any mouths? We'll, that is stranget Do you know if there are many other insects which have no motths2"
 No. think they are almost the only ones"
 And so they never eat anythfng?'
 No, nothing at all; they just live for two or three days, and spend all their time dancing Up and down in the sunshine, and turning up their funny little tails with the three long brfstles at the end, and then they fall into the water and die"
 Well, said the other white butter fly, as they flew oR. we don't eat much, but I. for one. shouldn't at all like to be without mouth" Evelyn Maud Whitaker, in Our Ldetie

Sir Waiter Raieish-ass2. 1s4e.

Sir Walter Raleigh was bern in an cid farmhouse Tn the country of De- ven, net far freza the tewA of PIyna- outh.
 Raleigh's boyfaood was spent wan deTiHg about the green lanes near his home, walking beside the clear streams, often with book ih his hand. He loved reading and lears1ingS and if Is said he often only went to bed fer five hours, reading late at night and be- ginning again early In the morning. He leved te read about battIefelds, exploits on land; far better did he like to read of de4Hgs at sea, and of fierce conflicts en the wide ocean.
 When he was 14 he went to Oxford. There he met Sir Philip Sidney, and friendship sprang up which lasted strong and true till death. Both were fond of learning, both eager for fame, though the gentle and sweeter man ners Of Sidney were a strange con traSt to the somewhat harsh manners and iron will of Raleigh. After three years Raleigh left Oxford without a degree to go to France and help the English to fight for the French Prot estsnts, who were being badly treated by the Catholics. It is very likely that, with Sidney, he was in Paris on the night of the terrible massacre of St. Bartholomew, and from his hiding place saw the ProtestaAtS being killed without mercy.
 When he. had served his time Ra1- eigh left the army and returned to England He went to London and took

Studies and Learns Agriculture.
 One day was at school when a su- pervisor from StefEs college came in He asked us how we would like to study agriculture. Everybed wanted to, so he teld us if we wanted to we could win $50 trip to Washington, D. c. He said: ''The boy in this eeun- ty who gets the most corn from an acre of ground can go te Washington te see the capital, etc.,
 I have planted a half acre of corn and it is about tive inches high.
 l have learned from agriculture how to tell @ beetle from a bug and an in sect from either of them. An insect is a Six-legged creature. spider Is net an insect because he has eight legs.
 beetle has a triangle where his wings are joined to his body. A bug Is an insect that has no triangle and if you tried to stick 8 pin through his body his wings would go out one side.
 I have also learned how to tell a browntail and gypsy moth. There are $700, coo, ,000 worth of crops destroyed in the United States in a year by in sects.
 I haven't learned much more because I haven't studied agriculture ealy few weeks.
 I wish everybody studied agriculture and learned to be good farmers.
 I suppose they have agriculture to encourage the children to stay In the country There are some people who simply waste their lives when they go to large cities.
 am sure would stay in the eeun- try anyhow. The country is more healthy, too.
 I hope most of the Wide -Awakes will be good farmers so they can come te the country to live on farms.

 Abraham Lincoln was born in Ken lucky in a little farmhouse He was born February 12, 1909. His father and mother wanted to name him Abra- ham after his grandfather.
 He did not go to school very long. His first teacher was his mother. She taught him to read and write. She also taught her husband to read and write, for, at that time, there were no schools.
 One day Abraham went to court and after the court was over he went up to the lawyer and said That is the best speech I ever s1eard in my life ~
 After he went home he said to hiss friend, T am going-to be lawyer1 So he began studying law books.

There was 8 pond in the garden and Bobby liked to run along on the Smoo tn border.
 F'ido. always took care that his young master was not too near the border. So he ran along between Bobby and the border as they played. He acted as if he knew there was danger.
 While they were running along, a gust of wind took his hat off, and. in reaching for 1t, he fell into the water. Fido looked at him for 8 moment, then he ran back to his father Carlo Fiae said something to Carlo in their lan- guase. Carlow sprang up. shook him self and ran as fast as he could with Fido at his heels.
 Bobby had sunk twice and his face was as white as the snow. Fido ran to the house and baEked so much Bob by's mother, being disturbed from her work, went to see what could be the matter. FIdo took her by the dress to the pond where Carlo had just brought Bobby to the border.

Tine RIood- Root and Its Cousin.

Dear Uncle Jed: I wonder how many of the Wide Awakes are inter ested in studying flowers? I suppose some do not live where there are many, but I happen to.
 One year in school we kept a flower calendar to see how many different flowers we could bring in. One of the first flowers to come in the spring is the bloodroot. It is found by the roadside and in the woods. It has snowy white petals and long hairy stem. The bloodroot has been called Natures Easter lily" The bloodroot lasts but few days. When we pick it the red juice stains our hands. The Indians used it for war paint
 Another flower that is connected with the bloodroot is the ceIandine. The celandine has the same red juice as the bloodroot, except it is a little lighter. Before the celanoine has ceased to blossom long pods have taks- en the place of the flowers They stand erect and are swollen as if they were too large for the seeds they hold. The celandine came from Europe. The English name of the plant is swallow wort, because It's flower comes and goes with the swallows.

Ina Mays of Plants.


 Meadow grass thrives in rich moist soil, but thistles often spring up in sandy places
 Clover seeks the warm sunshine while ferns grow best in shady woods. Mosses cling to the hard surfaces of rocks but water lilies take root in the soft mud at the bottom of ponds. Many trees thrive in swampS, others on dry hillsides.
 Sometimes seeds of swamp plants blow to dry sandy fields, but there they will die If thistle seeds blow into swamps they perish
 Some kinds of rice grow in flooded fields, but cactus plants thrive in des- erts.
 Every kind of plant grows to suit it's haunts. By its roots, stems, leaves and blossoms it Is fitted to get it's food and ripen it's seeds.
 The stem of the water lily grows long enough to reach from the mud to the surface of the water, where the seeds may ripen In the sun and air Some grasses send their roots many feet into the ground in search of wa ter.
 Plants have enemies, but they also have means of defending themselves against some of the enemies.
 Thus worms and bugs destroy po- tatoes, tomatoes and other vegetables; CdC0TpEAdES OkAGn SWdTHl III dPplS II6OSP eating the leaves and sometimes kill ing the trees.
 Birds destroy many seeds, using them for food.
 In defense, the. thorns on roses often prevent animals from breaking the stems or eating their branches.
 Some plants protect themselves by secreting poison juices; some by bit ter sap; some by sending out to their surfaces silky gums.
 Many plants by meane of their seeds, roots or stems can spread over. wide areas.
 The light tufts Of the thistle seed sometimes enable 1t to travel for miles in strong winds, and then fall in some place far from the parent plant.
 The sunshine enables plants to grow.

Dora was a little girl, six years old. She loved her dear mamma very much. But the little girl had one fault, which made her mamma very sad. If her mamma told her to get the scissors she would say:
 Yes. mamma. in a minute"
 If she told to do anything, she would say:

 Dora had pretty pet canary. She was very fond of the little birdie. be- cause it could sing so sWeetly. If Dora called 1t, it would leave it's cage and hop about the room
 One day Dora opened the door of the cage and called her birdie. It came out and hoped about the room Dora's mamma told her to close the door, for the cat might come in and kill the birdie."
 Yes, mamsna, I'll close it in a min ute.'' said Dora
 Just then the cat came and took birdie between its sharp teeth. Now Dora ran to close the door, but it was too late. The cat had killed the little bird, and it was her fault.

 One pleasant day in the late sum mer father was out on the water fishing in his boat made by burning the inside out of a large log. Mother took the little B's and went to the clearing to pick a few bIackberries which she had been watching eyer since they bloSsomed weeks before She placed the children on a soft messy bank and then began to picGl the berries carefully one by one ami put them in the wooden dish she brought with her.
 Once she stopped and listened. thinking she heard someone step on the other side of the' bushes. All seemed quiet and the bushes were so thick and tall she could not see ove.. @ them. It was land cleared by her hus- band and herself where they planted their few peas and potatoes.
 Still wondering what the noise was. she walked cautiously along, for it might be some wild beast looking for a stray chicken or young pig. The baTnyaFd animals were allowed to roam at will in the clearings As she advanced the sound became louder.
 It is certainly some person or per sons, and they are making free with my nice ripe fruit said Mother B.
