 Learn to go to your good time, when you have earned it, with the full ex- pectation of enjoying yourself; and when it is over, let the happy memory of it keep coming back to bless and sweeten the subsequent days.
 To great extent, wherever you go, you bring your own happiness with you. You will have the best time by giving it to others, contradictory as this may seem. You will look back with most satisfaction on the occasion, when you were "the life of the party" when you entered into the fun and made most of it yourself, and did not sit back and expect to have it made for you.

 Long time ago, all of the animals lived up in the world above the arch of the sky. They lived there so long that 1t was hard to find room for all of them, and so the water beetle was sent down to the water earth beneath, which is the earth we now live on, to see if she could find more room for them.
 The water beetle didn't find another earth, but only a wide, wide sea of water. so she dived to the bottom of the water and brought up tiny bit of mud which grew and grew until it be- came the earth. For long time this new earth was too soft for the ami mals to live upon, but they waited until 1t became hard, and then came down and set to work to make it a good place to live in.
 Why, it's dark down here!" said the lizard, who loved plenty of sun light and heat.
 ''Who cares," said the boot owl and the horned owl and the whip-poor-will, who all liked the dark and could fly better when there wasn't much light.
 We all care!" cried the animals who lived in the fields and forests and got their living by daylight. One after another, the grasshopper, the bluebird, the bear, the meadow lark, the long-eared jack-rabbit, the cotton tail bunny, the little buffalo, the teeter- ing snipe and the squirrel came to the Great Beaver and said that. they wanted light.
 "The only way to have light" said the Great Beaver, 'is to send some one to get the sun and set it on a track overhead so that it will travel across the earth from east to west every day"

A Standing Doll.

For creeping baby who spends a good deal of his time on the floor, big sister can make pretty plaything. Cut round out of stiff pasteboard. about four inches across, and cover with velveteen on one side. Make a bag of sateen, or other strong mate rial, about six inches high and as large round as the circumference of the cir cle of pasteboard. Do not close this bag at the bottom, but sew it's edge to the edge of the pasteboard circle with fine stitches, keeping the velveteeen on the outside. Have ready a cheap doll, about nine inches tall Put dol ly's legs into the bag and fill up round them with sawdust, or bran; pack it tight and draw in the gathering-cord closely around the dolls waist and fasten securely to prevent any saw dust escaping. The doll is now fin ished and looks like an old-fashioned lady in hoop-skirt and petticoat and will stand on any flat surface. It can be dressed in any way preferred, but the dress should be sewed on and should have no buttons or ornaments for little fingers to tear off or put in baby's mouth.

 My breakfast usually consisted of oatmeal, steak or chops, bread, coffee and some fruit.
 Hearing so much about Grape-Nuts. l concluded to give 1t trial and find out if all had heard of it was true.
 So l began with Grape-Nuts and cream, soft boiled eggs, toast, a cup of Postum and some fruit Before the end of the first week l was rid of the acidity of the stomach and felt much relieved.

to look after feeding the animals with what they had brought down from the world above until they could raise you would send some one for the sun at once, for I find it hard to set the table at meal time, and the fox is all ways stealing some of the corn cake off the table before lam ready"
 ''Who will go for the sun?" asked the Great Beaver. No one was anx- ious to go, for the sun was so full of light that it would almost make any one blind to get close.
 Let the fat 'possum go-he spends nearly all of his time anyway with his eyes shut" said the rabbit.
 ''No," said the 'possum. T will not go and get half melted!"
 One after the other, the animals all refused to go, until the Great Beaver said:
 T know what to do; 1 will send the Great Hawk, who flies high and high until you can no longer see. him, and who will not be afraid to go close up to the sun." So he whistled for the Great Hawk to come down, and said to him:
 GO and get the sun and set it in a track one ha:ld's breadth above the earth" But though a hands breadth in those days was very much greater than it is today, it was too close; the sun gave too much light, and was hot so hot that it scorched the shell of the crawfish red and spoiled it's flesh for food.
 So the Great Hawk raised the sun higher by one hands breadth. Still it was too hot, and the Great Hawk went on raising the sun until it was seven hand breadths above the earth. And that was just right-there is where it has stayed to this day.
