that almost half OF our order has not
been delivered, said superintendent
Roncovieri last night. I'VE have been
delivering to each school about half the
number REQUIRED. and will continue to
do until our present supply is ex-

LITTLE DOG TRIX

Trix was little dog, a very lit
tie, dog, so small that his little
mistress made him a bed in her
fathers slipper.
He was a great pet of the whole
family and as is so often the case
he became badly spoiled. Outside.
of his own family he did not like
children.
The school yard was across the
street and Trix hardly dared to
leave his own door for fear of the
children who loved to play with
him and tease him. They did not
intend to hurt him; oh, dear, no.
but sometimes they were rough
in their play, and anyway Trix did
not like to be leased.
One day a lady came and brot
her baby with her. Trix resented
the attention which the family gave
to the baby. He felt neglected and
lay in the easy chair which was
always his, on the red cushion
his head on his front-paws and his
sharp little eyes watching his mis-
tress, who, with the rest was quite
taken up with the baby, and when
she stopped and kissed it his out
ragged feelings would not be con-
trolled. With a yelp he bounded at
the group landing at his mistress
feet.
She picked him up and soothed
and petted him but she could not
persuade him to make up with the
baby who was a fine little fellow,
and laughed and crowed and fairly
captured the hearts of the group
around him, at which the little
dogs resentment grew. They tried
to get him to look at the baby at
which he jumped down from ihs
chair and marched from the room.
The lady stayed several hours
but no persuasion would induce
TriX to enter a room where the
baby was.
am sorry to have to tell you
that he became so eXacting that
his little mistress was obliged to
let him go, although it almost broke
her heart. He even resented the
presence of her little playmates
! and would not allow her to play

thinking must lie the secret of
health, of yout, and of life itself.
Clean living and deep breathing

This is only another way of ex-

FANNIE ANGELINA

Our Fannie Angelina
Didn't want to go to bed.
Would you like to know the rea-

Then this is what she said.
At eight o'clock precisely,
On the eve of yesterday,
Her Mama in her little, bed
Had tucked her snug away
1T isn't time to go to bed,
The sun goes down too quick;
1t hurts my back to lie in bed,
And almost makes me sick.
want to show my Uncle John
My pretty birthday ring,
And sing him, Jesus Loves Me-
Cause he likes to hear me sing.
My dolly Arabella
Her yellow dress is thin,
left her on the horse block,
/ forgot to bring her in;
l want to go and get her,
She'll catch a cold and die;
want to get my nankerchik,
i guess I've got to cry
said I'd wait till papa comes;
/ wonder what he'll think.
, There's something hurts ME- in my
throat,
want to get drink;
/ guess I'd rather get it
In my little silver cup;
What makes me have to go to bed
When you are staying up?"
So Fannie Angelina
Was determined not to do it;
But she drifted off to dream-land,
Poor child, before she knew it;
The queen who reigns in ream-
land,
Shut her willful eyes SO tight,
They quite forgot to open
Till the sun was shining bright.
