SO GETTY w S
The Old Brown School House

1t stood on a bleak country orner
The houses were distant and few.
A meado lay back IN the distance,
Beyond rose the hills to our view.
The road crossing there at right angles
Untraversed by pomp and array,
Were cropped by the cows in the sum-
mer;
I've watched them for many a day.
In memoEy's hall hangs the picture,
And though years of sad care are
between,
It hangs with a beautiful gliding,
And well do l love it 1 ween.
It stood on a bleak country corner.
But boyhood's young heart made It
It gloried in the sunshine Of summer;
Twas cheerful In winter and storm.
The teacher, oh we'll 1 remember;
My heart had long kept him a place
Perhaps by the world he's forgotten.
His memory no time can efface.
He met US with smiles on the thresh.

And shouted him on, all aglow.
We dashed at his beautiful sculptures
Regardless of all its array,
We plunged in the feather snowdrift
And sported the winter away.
We sat on the old-fashioned benches,
Beguiled with our pencils and slate;
We thought of the opening future
And dreamed Of our manhood,s es-
tate,
o. days Of my boyhood! 1 bless you;
While looking from life's busy prime
The treasures are lingering with me p
I gathered in life's early time.
o still to that bleak country corner
Turns my heart in its WEAKNESS yet,
While leading my gentle young sisters
With youthful companions I met.
I cast a fond glance DER the meadow;
The hills just behind it I see
Away in the charm Of the distance
Old school house! a blessing on
thee!

TOMMY TIT. THE CHICKADEE,
PROVES a FRIEND INDEED.
(By Thornton w. Burgess.)

After Peter Rabbit had saved little
Miss Fuzzytail from Black Pussy, the
cat who belonged way down to Farm
er Browns house and had no bust
ness hunting in the Old Pasture, he
with her as ear to her home
as she would let him. She said that
1t wasn't necessary that he should go
a single step. but Peter insisted that
she needed him to see that no more
harm came to her. Miss Fuzzytail
laughed at that, for she felt quite
able to take care Of herself. It had
been just stupid carelessness on her
part that had given Black Pussy the
chance to catch her, she said, and she
was very sure hat she never would
be SO careless again. What she didn't
tell Peter was that she had been so
busy peeping at him and admitting
him that she had quite forgotten to
watch out for danger for herself.
Finally she said that he could so
part way with her, but when they
were almost within sight Of the bull

Rabbit from the Old Pasture IL he
never ate another mouthful.
My. my. my. those We're bad days
for Peter Rabbit! Yes, sir, those GER
tainly were bad days! Old Jed
Thumper had found out how little
Miss Fuzzytail had been fooling him
by making him think tina Peter was
in parts Of the Old Pasture quite the
opposite direction from where he real
ly was. Worse still, he found Peters
favorite summing bank in the far cor
ner of the Old Pasture, and would
hide near it and try to catch Peter
every time Peter tried to get a few
minutes rest there. He did some
thing worse than that. One day he
saw fierce Mr.. Goshawk hunting. He
let Mr.. Goshawk almost catch him
bush. Then he showed himself again
and once more escaped in the same
way. So he led fierce Mr.. Goshawk to
a point where Mr.. Goshawk could
look down and see Peter Rabbit
stretched Out on his summing bank
trying to get a little rest. Right away
Mr.. Goshawk forgot all about old Jed
Thumper and sailed up in the sky
from where he could swoop down on
Peter. while old Jed Thumper. chuck
ling to himself wickedly, hid where
he could watch what would happen.
That certainly would have been the
last of Peter Rabbit if it hadn't been
for Tommy Tit the Chickadee. Tommy
saw Mr.. Goshawk and just in time
warned Peter, and so Mr.. Goshawk
got only his claws full of oft earth
for his pains, while old Jed Thumper
once more chewed on nothing in rage
and disappointment. Dear me, dear
me. those certainly were dreadful days
for Peter Rabbit and little Miss Fuzzy
tail. You see all the time little Miss
Fuzzytail was terribly worried for
fear Peter would be caught.

she was afraid of what old Jed
Thumper might do to Peter, and
we'll, the truth Is she was afraid of
what he might do to her if he should

WISE WORDS A Physician on Food

A physician of Portland, Oregon, has views about food. He says:
 q have always believed that the with treating the sick, but that we owe it to humanity to teach them how to protect their health especially by hygienic and dietetic laws.
 With such a feeling as to my duty I take great pleasure in saying to the public that in my own experience and also from personal observation I have found no food to equal Grape Nvs= and that I find there is almost no limit to the great benefit this food will bring when used in all cases of sick ness and conva1escence.
 Tt is my experience that no physi- cal condition forbids the use of G1ape-Nuts. To persons in health there is nothing so nouriShing and ac- ceptable to the stomach, especially at breakfast, to start the machinery of the human system on the days work. In cases of indigestion l know that complete breakfast can be made of is necessary not to overload the stom- ach at the morning meal l also kpow the great value of Grape Nuts when the stomach is too weak to digest other food
