Daddy Bedtirne
~ The Little Birch
Tree That Grew
By the Road

- AID daddy. Now, children. I am going to tell you the story of a little
birch tree"
Jack and Evelyn curied down at his feet aud this Is the story he
told them:
The little birch tree grew on n high bank at the edge Of the woods. A
road "a past the bank, a road that wound up ii beautiful hillside.
=. "The road was IA very pretty ne. II u hned with handsome trees When
people came along they generally stopped to admire these There were tan
chestnus up and down which the busy squirrels scrambled in theirs search for
winter stores: there were tall oaks for which the umbermen sometimes called
with sharp saw and axes; there were cedars in whose thick evergreen
branches the hardy birds made all year homes: here were bushy hickoies TINT
the boys loved as dearly as the squhreis; here were maple. gum and sumac
trees whose leaves glowed blood red in the fall: here were slender hirches
whose white trunks swayed IN very breeze.
The little birch was only a young thing. a saplrg. nut he longed TO b.
noticed and praised. But he ws only a thin spindhng plant tin which n o
but the mother tree could see any beauty.
"No n yer stops to admire me- the little birch said TO her

little boughs are reaching out toward the road, If you wish to be admired you
must be ii perfectly straight tree. with bOughs growing III around your trunk
The little birch tree grew tall that summer. and when spring came he was
ready to grow some more. His trunk leaned well oyer the road. and his little
roots chung to the soft soil of the bank as best they could.
'One day there cam II heavy rain. 1t asted till the next day and the next

PRETTY new BELTS
AND CIRDLES.
Exceptionally Smart and AiiraC-
tive Are Styles Now Shown.

If you affect rather seyere frocks the
belt should be Of leather, suede or kid
in black and white, gray and tan or
dark red, moss green and taupe. If
YOU prefer one tone in the leather strap
have It ornameuted with jewels of diff
ferent sorts mingled in an attractive
design.
Black velvet ribbon interlaced with
black metal links, each Il tipped with
a gold pendant, makes an attractive
and unique looking belt. but If you
would have something very stunning
indeed decorate a strip of white suede
with q pattern in seed pearls inter
spersed with emeralds and have q kid
covered buckle with enameled eyelets.
Equally chic and unusual. are the
belts composed Of a row of imitation
canoes of large size connected by a
double set of links and finished at the
ends with metallic tassels.
Bodice girdles are considered excep-
tionalIy smart, and they ~undeniably
are attractive. One very unique model
has a bodice Of black patent kid. ex-
actly shaped to the figure. and a girdle
of heavy black silk braid interlaced
with double strands of white kid and
finished at both ends with n long black
floss tassel. In any color this model
may be attractively worked out. and
1t is especially good in white with sill
yer braiding. Very attractive Is a sash
girdle composed of an Indian red pat
ent leather belt with an ivory buckle
of oval shape at either end. through
which Is run an Indian red surah sash
with q three inch long friDged end.

An effective dough raising device that
a handy man "a make for his wife has
been patented by a North Dakota man.
The heat required for the process Is
supplied by an old fashioned oil lamp
A box with a hinged lid In front is
fastened beneath the kitchen table.
The pan of dough sets In the bottom OF
this box. At one side a sort of small
stovepipe with an inverted hood enters
the box. This hood fits owe the lamp
chimney, and the heat that rises la the
chimney is conveyed into the home
made oven. To regulate the tempera-
ture in the box so that 1t shall not be-
come too hot there is an expanding at
tachment that expands when the tenn
perature gets too high and opens a
valve which let's some heat escape.
