As TOLD BY AUNT GERTIE
CHAPTER I.

OtlAG 4.
a long time ago, on an early
Christmas morning. the great King
OF Norway made up his mind To send
a friendly greeting TO the King OF
Denmark
Now. what shall I send?" asked
he Of his court attendants.
Why not send one. OF our fine white
bears" asked Norseman Gunter,
chief hunter.
''F'fnei" answered the king. But
how shall we get the bear TO my
royal brothers cOurt?"
That is easy" answered the hunt
er. Il will take him there"
Good" replied the king of Nor
way. You shall start tomorrow"
So it happened that, the next morn
ing, Gunter and Master Bruin set off
on their journey. All day they trav-
eled over country roads, through
dense woods and over lakes. the
nearest way to Denmark. But to-
wards evening the wind began TO
whistle through the trees; the clouds
gathered angrily; the road was very
rough and Bruin and Gunter grew
very, very tired.
Where should they spend the win
try night?
While they considered this import
ant question a wOodsman appeared
on the road. Right away Gunter ap
preached him, asking for a nights
lodging
mo" said the woodman. my wife
would be frightened TO death if that
big bear were TO stay in our home
over night"
But. I'll tell you what. You may
go over to the cottage on the other
side Of the hill and stay there all
night"
"All right" said the hunter. WHO
lives there"
mo one" replied the woodman,
except a spiteful pigmy who blew in
one midnight a few months ago with
the storm. He simply took posses
sion of the house and there was no
end TO his monkey tricks. When the
linen was hung out to dry he cut the
line. When he went to get a cup OF
ale for himself he left the tap run
ming, and when the fowls were locked
up for the night he unfastened the
door and let them run out. Finally
we had to move out and leave him in
entire control OF affairs,

reminded that electricity annihilates

THERE are times when there ap-
pears to be certainties in baseball, but
it is always before or after the game.
BEFORE the worlds series opened
it was certain that New York's pitch
ing department made victory certain
for the Giants. McGraw said so. 1t
was also equally certain that the bat
tin strength of the Athletics would
win. Mack said so. Having had
demonstrations of the correctness Of
each diagnosis we are still uncertain
as to the outcome.
STILL there may be some funda-
mental reason why the doctors should
favor the recall.
THE roads in st. Joseph county are

WE read in South Bends greatest
newspaper that the missionaries who
fell into the hands of the Chinese brig
ands were three days without water.
1t seems incredible when we con-
slider that we waste more water than
we drink, that more water flows over
the dam than goes through the wheels
and that there is more water in the
sea than land on shore.
Yet being reminded that men will
sit in a boat all day and fish without
touching a drop of the water.
THE thought occurs to old E. II. NJ.
that the contractor has been enjoying
the public comfort station all summer
and that the public may enjoy it next
summer.
The Town of No Good.
(Kendallville News-Sun.)
Kind friends, have you heard of the
Town of No Good,
On the banks of the River Slow.
Where the Some-Time-o Other
scents the air
And the soft Go Easies grow?
1t lies in the Valley of What's-the-
Use,
In the Province OF Let-her-Slide:
It's the home Of the recklessI-Don't-
Care,
Where the Give-It-Ups abide.
The town is as old as the human
race,
And it grows with the flight Of
years,
It is wrapped in the fog of the idler's
Dreams
Its streets are paved with discarded
schemes
And are sprinkled with useless tears.
WE seem to be indebted TO the vigil
lance of the Hoboken police for dis
covering who put the Teyte in pants.

DIARY OF FATHER TIME.

1t makes me laugh when hear
people speaking of Atlas" as a book
of maps. 1t is not he world, but the
heavens that the Atlas" Of mythol-
ogy upheld. Mercator, the Dutch
geographer. who made globes for
Emperor Charles V. of Germany, was
the first 70 use the nname in this
connection, choosing it as a conven-
lent and in some way, an appropri-
ate title, because Atlas, the demigod
figures with a world on his shoulders
as a frontispiece of some early works
on geography.
Atlas. ii is said, made war with
other Titans upon Zeus, and being
conquered, was condemned 10 bear
heaven on his head and hands. Lat
er traditions represented him as a
man changed, by means of Medusa's
head. into mountain, upon which
rested heaven and all its stars. In
any case, Atlas was always associated
with a heavy burden, heavily borne.
Thus Shakespeare makes Warwick
say to Gloster. Thou art no Atlas for
so great a weight"

SIMPLE RULES FOR WINTER
TIME,
BY a Physician.
son Is changingl

The season Is changing.
Do you realize it? Are YOU prepar-
ed for it?
An old-time physician once said.
begin the winter right. before it
starts. and you'll be pretty apt 20 keep
right till summer comes again" There
is more in that than may at first ap-
pear.
Beginning right means preparing in
time.
Don't wait till you have caught a
first cold before you put on your
warmer underwear
Don't wait till your feet have been
soaked in the first rain, with the prob
able cold and rheumatic twinges af-
terward. before you buy and put on
your strong winter shoes,
Don't leave the small but necessary
repairs TO the basement furnace until
after the first cold snap,
Don't forget that exercising briskly
in cold or even damp air. is usually
harmless, but that sitting in cold or
damp house. or in wet clothes, is very
likely TO be followed by any one Of
number of winter ills.
Keep the house well ventilated even
in the stormiest weather, always re-
mem boring that the sleeping apartment
should be the ARREST IN the house.
Keep as great a variety Of food or
the table as you can all winter long.
not forgetting that nutritious food
makes heat.
If contagious disease is making
Roadway in your neighborhood, keep
yourself and the children out OF over
heated. stuffy places where large num-
bers of people congregate.
Have a care OF the drinking water.
A good filter is a safe device.
In short. begin the winter with the
doctrine of prevention, and the ques-
ton of cure will very largely take care
of itself.
