An Old Fable Told In a New Way.

A Shepherd Boy was sen every dag
to watch a flock of sheep not far from
the Village. Every nce in awhile he
would pretend Il Wolf was coming and
would cry out so that the Village Peo-
pie would come running to rescue him
from the Wolf. And when they had
rescued him each time he would laugh
at them for believing.
But n day Il Wolf really did ONE
The Shepherd Boy screamed and
shouted for Help. oh" he cried, "the
Wolf is killing the Sheep! Help
Help!!'
But, of course. since he had told un'
truths so often the Villagers did not
believe him this time and no one NO
ticed his cries. The Wolf killed all the
poor Sheep. If the Shepherd Boy had
been truthful this would V have
happened. for the Village People would
have come when he called and chase.
away the Wolf.

Naaturtiuras For Bare Spots.

Plant nasturtiums wherever there is
a bare spot in your garden; plant them
wherever you think there is going to
be a bare spot. They are among the
most easily grown of flowers, and their
snowy blossoms, which flower until
frost, can be used for cut flowers for
the house all through the summer.
One gardener always plants nastur-
tiums about her hollyhocks. When she
cuts down the stalks of the h%ollyhocks
after the flowers have passed by-a
practice, by the way. which keeps her
plants strong and her flowers blythe
nasturtiunas are just ready to demand
every inch of ground in sight, for after
they pass their babyhood nasturtium
plants are very greedy of room. In a
few weeks more they begin to bloom
and cover what would otherwise be
bare spots in the garden with rioting
color.
Another gardener plants nasturtium
seeds among the bulbs in her hardy
border. She does not remove the bulbs,
but after the foliage of the bulbs turns
seal and yellow she cuts it. Just about
this time the nasturtiums are we'll I'M
der way, and they quickly owe the
bulbs with a carpet of color and bloom.

Early Education,

@0ib
The earliest textbook for the in
%struction of children was the horn
book, invented in 1850 and used up to
the close Of the eighteenth century. A
thin slab of hard wood was covered
with parchment. OH which were print
ed the capital and small letters,
numerals and some elementary sylla-
bles and words. Over this a thin sheet
of transparent cows horn was placed
and firmly bound. This, the Bible
and the sampler on which little girls
painfully stitched the letters of the
alphabet and a border Of h%erringbone
stitch or some conventional pattern OF
impossible flowers and foliage COM
Drised the bulk of the education given
until the commencement of the eight
zenith century.-St. Louis Globe-Dem-

Hint. For the Cook.

Salt tends to darken cabbage. cauli-
flower or brussels sprouts.
Tie caulifower and cabbage in a
piece Of c~heesecloth. It is then easy
to handle and keeps its shape.
Slice eggplant with q silver knife.
Always wash a dozen pea pods to
cook with the peas. This gives them
a better flavor.
Peas are delicious when cooked in
the pod. The pods burst open and
rise to the top: the peas settle to the
bottom.
Vegetables thoroughly ventilated
while cooking are thought to be more
wholesome and Of better favor.
Vegetables should not be cooked in
an iron kettle. ~
Cook vegetables as soon after gather
ing as possible.
Cook dandelions, spinach, green peas,
caulilower, cabbage and brussels
sprouts uncovered.

Animals Seen In the Sea.

Many kinds of animals and birds
have their titles taken by jewellers in
the deep sea
Perhaps the most curious is the sea
mouse. which does not resemble the
land mouse in the slightest. 1t is Il
worm of curious shape and lives on
land beyond the tide mark. Often,
by storms.
Another funny inhabitant of the sea
is the sea owl. 1t is not a bird at all,
but a fish. Its more common name is
the lump sucker. Its c~uriously form
ed mouth, by which it fastens itself
to the rocks, resembles that of an owl;
hence the name.
