BOY SCOUTS
iContiuued from Yesterday
VOL. l.. NO, 3.

Loyalty.
LOYALTY is also a scout virtue. "A
scout ought to be loyal to all to
whom he has obligations. He ought
to stand up courageously for the
truth, for his parents and friends.
Self-Respect.
Another scout virtue is self-respect.
He ought to refuse to accept gratui-
ties from any one, unless absolutely
necessary. He ought to work for the
money he gets.
For this same reason he should
never look down upon any one who
may be poorer than himself or envy
any one richer than himself. a
scouts self-respect will cause him
to value his own standing and make
him sympathetic toward others who
may be, on the one hand, worse off,
or, on the other hand, better off as
far as wealth is concerned. Scouts
know neither q lower nor higher
class, for u scout is one who is q
comrade to all, and who is ready to
share that which he has with OF h
ers.
Honor.
Inc most important scout virtue
is that of honor. Indeed, this is the
basis of all scout virtues and Is
closely allied to that of self-respect.
When scout promises to do a thing
on his honor, he is bound to do it,.
The honor of a scout will not permit
of anything but the highest and the
best and the manifest The honor
of scout is a sacred thing, and cam
not be lightly set aside or trampled
upon.
Faithfuiness.
Faithfulness to duty is another one
of the scout virtues. When it Is "a
! scouts duty to do something, he dare
not shirk. A scout is faithful to his
own interest and the interest of
others. He Is true to his country and
| his God
Cbcerfulness.
| Another scout virtue Is cheerfuness.
AS the scout law intimates, he must
never go about with sulky air. He
must always be bright and smiling,
and, as the humorist says, must al
ways see the doughnut and not the
hole" A bright face and a CHEEKY
word spread like sunshine from one to
another. 1t Is the scouts duty to be
sunshine-makeri in the world.

Lad Who Went
to North Wind
AS TOLD BY AUNT GERTIE
CHAPTER III,

When the house was as still as a
mouse the landlord crept downstairs
and put an ordinary Ram in the place
of the wonderful money coming Ram
which the North Wind had given to
the lad
OF course, the lad did not know the
difference. The next day he started
out for home. When he reached his
mother he ran happily to her saying:
Look what / have here, Ram
which coins nothing but gold ducats.
Watch this!"
1cred the Ram to coin ducats II stood
perfectly still and stupid.

Back he went the third time. The

third, time
"What can you want here this

corner. Take that with you. When

The lad took up the stick and
started home, hoping this time that
he really had something which would
aid him in some way or other. AL
though he could not imagine how the
stick could do him any good.
When he reached the inn, where he
had stayed before, 1t was growing
dark He went in. He laid the stick
down and retired. The landlord, who
had got into the habit of watching for
the lad saw the stick. He guessed it
was worth something so he decided to
put another stick in its place.
But what do you think? The lad
was wise this time. He made believe

A great disturbance in the bird seed
market is the direct result of the
Balkan war, for the simple reason
that the greatest sources OF the worlds
supply of canary seed is in Turkey, in
the province of Rodosto, which was
ravaged by the warning armies with
the result that planting was prevent
ed, crops were destroyed and ship
ments of stocks on hand delayed.
With various intervening tluctua-
lions Turkish canary seed went up in
this market from 81 to 5A cents q
pound, and the supply here is still
small
Next to Turkey, the greatest source
of canary seed is the Argentine Re-
public. Canary seed is also imported
in smaller quantities from France and
from Morocco. OF other bird foods,

CHILDRENS STORIETTE.

Tessie and Bessie were getting
ready for a garden party. 1t was to
be very small party, for they had
only invited Bertha and Harold, who
lived next door.
Tessie spread tablecloth on the
big fiat stone under the great oak,
and Bessie put on the sandwiches and
chicken and grandma's pretty cake.
Bessie set a saucerful of berries be-
side Bertha's plate, and Tessie put
another beside Harolds, and two
saucers for themselves.

they came back to the table, "some-
body has stolen the berries

Well, there are plenty more"
They hurried away to fill the sau-
GERS, at the same time keeping watch
of the table. Nobody seemed to go
near. it, yet the berries kept disap-
pearing.
So they hid and watched. They
did not wait long, however, before
they saw the prettiest little squirrel
imaginable helping himself to the
berries.
This made the children laugh and
how could they refuse such cute
little guest, and they let him have
his fill while they stood near and
watched him.

very griny, though it is scrubbed
often.
If you can spare the space will
you also tell me how to keep the
rubber rollers of clothes wringer

from colored clothes, and then the
color rubs on other pieces. / am a

Gathered Muff

The huge granny muff made of
gathered and corded silk, velvet, bro
cade or chiffon is very fashionable
this season.
1t is, besides, quite simple to make,
and looks much more chic than a
muff of poor imitation fur. Blue and
red shot taffeta are used for a pretty
model.
Two thicknesses of wadding form
the lining on to which the silk is
gathered and divided into sections
with piping cords. Wide frills of thu
silk finish off the muff on either side.

best way to clean violin that has

Your request is unusual. but not
at all difficult to answer. The hard

rub. Cleanse the interior with dry

WAR RAISES BIRD SEED PRICES

Germany and millet from Turkey and
from Persia. Persian millet is mostly
distributed from London.
1t tales but a trifiing amount Of
sseed to fiji the cup in canary birds
cage but a canary would probably
consume or waste in the course of a
year ten pounds of seed, so that the
amount required for all the birds in
the country is enormous.
There was imported into this coun-
try in 1912 canary seed to the amount
approximately of 100000 pounds, or
about $500 tons. at an average normal
price of 31a cents a pound, about
$175.Q00. The value of all the bird seed
imported in year is from $350,000 to
100000. 1t would probably be put
ting it very moderately to say that
the bird-lovers of the country pay out
for bird seed, as they buy 1t in retail
form, more than 100000 annually.

Handbags are smaller than for

There is very new fad for black
bags beaded in jet and fin
ished with jet fringe. says the De-
lineator; but. of course these are not
particularly substantial. With the
semi tailor-madc or the afternoon
dress a velvet or silk bag is beaut full,
