Got the Best Of JeffrIes.

A story is told OF an old Puritan and
his encounter with Judge Jeffries in
the seventeenth century. Jeffries
hearing the case against the Puritan
was trying to make fun of the old
man, as was his habit. II honor you
sir" said the Judge, sneeringly, from
your head to your feet And honor
you, sir" said the old Puritan, from
the crown of your head to the soles
Of your feet" Il honor YOU" went on
on the Judge, from Lands End to
John OGroats" And | honor you
from the Equator to the Antipodes."
Il honor you" said the judge irasci
bly, Ito the gates of He'll" The Puri
tan didn't reply at once. Then he
said, Sir, there is a passage ia Holy
Writ that says, Answer a fool accord
ing to his folly have done So But
there is another passage that says,
Answer not a fool according to his
folly Sir, decline to follow you to

r. HE school bag is a great conven-
i fence to school children and a
conserver of books, papers, pencils
and handkerchiefs as we'll 1t is bet.
ter TO carry the burden of books in
a bag than in the arms. A bag leaves
the arms free and does not interfere
with the stride nor the proper car
riage of the body in walking.
Bags are usually made of canvas, or
of canvas covered with cloth. Hard
twisted waterproof worsteds, craven
cites or rubberized clothes will pro-
tect the canvas stiffening which holds
the bag in shape. Remnants of suit
ings or of cloths used for coats, in
plain colors or dark plaids are select
ed to make the most substantial kinds.
Fancier bags of plush, like that shown
In the picture, and bags of leather are
intended for older pupils.
School bags are usually oblong in
shape and measure about twelve inches
in length and ten in width. They are
cut in the form of an envelope, so that
extra width must be allowed on one
side to fold over and form the flap.
The sides ARE joined by straight strip
of cloth from two and a half to three
inches wide, which is stitched between
them. The same are turned to the
outside and finished with bindings of
heavy wooden braid OF strip of
thin leather. All the edges OF the

Ways OF the Sunhsh.

What piscatorial fan does not know
the cursed annoyance OF the persistent
little sunfish? Expert in the stealing
OF bait, he is responsible for many a
disappointing nibble and for many a
haul that brings no reward but the
trouble of unlocking him. The indie
pendent, however, devotes a para
graph to his domestic habits that gives
him a new interest. We use the mas
culine pronoun since 1t appears that
the male fish is the nest builder and
the sssiduous guardian of the precious
contents. Into the saucerShaped hol-
low in the sand he pushes a flooring
OF pebbles. Then he persuades a fe-
male to deposit her eggs. This done,
she goes about her care-free way,
while he remains lowering about the
nest and tanning it with his fms to
keep the eggs free from silt and to
supply needed modicum of oxygen.

bag should be bound in this way.
A long, fat, oblong piece of cloth
stitched to one side of the front of
the bag makes a pocket for pencils,
etc. At the other side a small pocket
is placed, which will carry a drinking
cup. A flap should be provided for
this pocket. The flap on the bag and
those on the pockets are fastened
down with snap fasteners.
The bag of plush, shown in the pic
ture, is made of a single piece lined
with SINNERS satin. A small pocket
is inserted at the front for the purse
and handkerchief The edges are dec
Grated with a narrow plating of satin
or satin ribbon. Three snap fasteners
across the top hold the front and back
together. Silk cord and tassels pro-
vide the handle. This bag may be
used for shopping bag, but made to
match a small neckpiece and muff,
will delight the older school girls or
the young woman in college, and add
much to her comfort.
Before undertaking to make a school
bag II is a good idea to examine those
shown in the shops. Only fairly sub
stantial ones are to be had from a dol.
lar and a half up. The homemade
varieties are cheaper and will stand
more wear than the cheap ready-made
bags.
