are"
And how old is that?"

"Then you're wrong, for I'm If

But it is isn't years that count,
sonny. It's the way you've lived
EN-. City life makes a boy older
than he is. You're only a country
boy. What do you know about

that you shoot, not q bird, sonny. II
you've got a few pennies in your
pocket I'll show you how it's played"
While speaking he climbed over the
gate and took a seat on a fallen tree
at Tommy's side. The country boy
felt humiliated by the assumed SUI
periorlty of his new acquaintance,
and, believing he must do something
to redeem himself in the latter's opin-
ion, readily fell into the trap.

CHAPTER III.
Hank BushrOd.

When Tommy came down to do the
chores the next morning he found his
faithful dog waiting for him outside
the kitchen door. Watch was a full
blooded New Foundland, with q noble
head, a great bushy tail that curled
UP over his back, powerful limbs and
black, shaggy hair.
Good morning, Watch!" said
Tommy.
The animal looked up at him with
affection and barked joyously. Then
he began to roll and tumble in the
grass and circle around his young
master, challenging him to q frolic.
The boy had taught Watch to be his
helpmate in all his tasks and now,
when the time came to drive the cows
TO pasture, the dog accompanied him
to keep them from straying into for
hidden fields.
II was | beautiful June morning
and. as the sun appeared above the
tree tops, the woods and fields thrill
ed and throbbed with melodious
songs of birds. A heavy dew had
fallen over night, making visible In
the suns slant rays the silVery gos-
samer webs of thousands of spiders.
1t seemed to the imaginative boy
that fairies had been busy during

tracery.
"They build wonderful cities in the
darkness. he thought, (which the
sun destroys each day"
The cows were all aheld and he
was putting up the bars of the pas
ture lot, when suddenly he heard
Watch yelp with pain and saw him
come limping out of a neighborine
pasture with his tail and ears droop-
ing.
what is it, Watch" he asked,
anXiously.
The dog drew near and held up his
right paw, displaying a bruise that
had evidently been made by stone.
At the same time q voice that seemed
familiar called out from the pasture
Watch had left:
Hello, Sonny Is that your dog"
Tommy turned his gaze in the d.
rection of the voice and beheld the
smart boy he had met the evening
before leaning across the bars Of a
gate.
YES. he's mine" answered Tommy.
We'll if you value him keep him

A Song Requested

Here is the song requested re-
Gently l hope 1t Is the right one.
ROSE c.
THE STORY THE vIoLETs
TOLD.
A wealthy man called on his prom
Used bride,
At her home found stranger
there.
"'Tis only friend of my schoolday
life,''
She told him with careless air.
With a smile then he greeted the
friend of yore,
And his heart grew still and cold;
As he glanced at the violets his
sweetheart wore,
And read the sad story they told
Chorus:
The story the violets told was plain:
All broken and crushed on her
dress;
On her friends snow-white vest was
a violet stain,
That told of fond caress.
They told him she'd only been play
ing a part,
To marry him for his gold;
He sighed as he read with break
Ing heart
The story the vlolets told.
He returned after absence of many
years,
Just to find out his sad mistake:
Tho violets blue brought bitter
tears,
And caused her poor heart to
break.
Twas brother accused of an.
others crime
She had shielded that fatal day: ;
At her grave there one night, In the
pale moonlight:
II was wrong" he then sadly did
say,
Thank you. Rose c. The words
are nothing II not pathetic, particu-
larry the very last line.

An Invitation to a Church
= Wedding ~ 49,. :.

NV dear Miss Doom.
Will you please tell me II it's
proper to send cards, or what reply
should one give on receiving an
invitation to church wedding.
INQUIRER
Here is q rule to guide you con-
corning all Invitations:
The form of an invitation usually
indicates whether an answer is ex-
pected. When the pleasure of ones
company Is requested a reply must
be sent.
An invitation to a church wedding
does not require a written reply,
but 1t Is courteous to acknowledge
the fact that one has been remem-
bered, therefore cards should be
sent to the BRIDES parents, II the
address is known, and to the newly
married pair on the day Of the
wedding or Immediately after. II
preferred, cards may be left later
at the mothers house, but without
asking for anyone Leaving cards
is always more polite than mailing
them.

Another Question

Children are too often little spend
thrlfts. They use up an entertain
ment for which their fathers and
mothers would be grateful then they
look about them for something new.
It is said that while Rudyard Kip.
ing was in England one summer he
became very fond Of Miss Dorothy
Drew, Mr.. Gladstone's granddaughter.
He met her at country house. and.
being very fond OF children, took her
about the grounds and told her
stories. After time Mrs. Drew, fear
ing that Mr.. Kipling must have had
enough of the child's society, called
her and said:
Now, Dorothy. l hope you have
been a good child and not been
wearying Mr.. Kipling"
"Oh, not bit, mother" replied the
little girl, but you've no idea how
Mr.. Kipling has been wearying me"

Centerpieces made of white round

A hairdresser tells me that the
hair may be bleached white with
a certain acid, but that the process
is more or less dangerous and the
results uncertain, so uncertain that
the shop of which she is manager
will not countenance it.
If I were you | would shampoo
my hair every three weeks or so
with liquid green soap, and between
shampoos l would brush it thor
oughly, using about 100 strokes
every night. This will put your
locks In good condition and give
them a gloss that will be admired.

Do not wash your face just before
