The Ants
Build a
Summer y1otel.

- VELYN had always said that she thought ants were splendid little
MI creatures because they we're so busy and seemed to enjoy working
- over their homes and carrying food to their children.
So daddy told her that be had a story to tell her about q summer
hotel that the ants had just finished building.
young creature. But despite that fact she was very capable and was one Of
the best little housekeepers known to the ant world.
She told the other ants that in order to make their colony popular they
ought to have a big summer hotel where all the fashionable ants could come
for the summer months, wear their best clothes and listen to the concerts
given by the c1ckets every evening near by. v-.
Now the ants thought that this was an excellent scheme of hers.
And she added that of course they must charge enormous prices, because
she said that folks who wanted to be fashionable were always willing to pay
big prices for-wel, just to be fashionable.
Nov, all the ants listened to young Mrs Black Ant with the greatest OF
interest. and they wasted II o time about setting to work. They built their
hotel on the tip # a fine mound with a beautiful. view of the surrounding
country, for another thing that young Mrs. Black Ant had told them was that
they must brag about their magnificent view. The hotel was built in less than
a day. It certainly was large. In fact the ants were almost afraid it was
too large and that they would never be able to get enough guests to come
to it.
"They all went around to nearby ant cities telling the ants about the won
dGful hotel they had just built with all the modern improvements-sunh heat
star light, fresh air breezes, delicious food bought by the ant managers, who
were very fussy that it would always be of the best And last and perhaps
could listen to every evening when they could dress up in their best clothes
Besides going around themselves, they sent notices N little sticks, which they
mailed in the ant poTofce to the faraway ant cities"
II didn't know ants had a postohce," said Evelyn.

George A. Birmingham in London

anxious to visit them and see how they
had ~prospered in their new homes.
Foreign travel has one great disad-

The Green Apple Season; a Moral TaLe

San Francisco Bulletin: One there
was a boy. One day he vent out and
saw a tree with a green apple hanging
on it. The apple seemed to say: Eat
me! Dare you tot" though it mani
testify had no right to a that at that
stage of the game. II the boy had
been a wise boy he woald have gone
away and come back when he was
sure the apple was ripe, but he was
only about as wise as the general run
Of boys. and after q little considera-
ton he climbed into the tree and got
the apple and ate 1t. At first he liked
it, though it puckered his mouth up
some. After 4 while something began
to happen inside OF him. He didn't
know what 1t was, but he was sure
that he was going to die. He thought
that nothing in the world was quite
as ~loathson1e as an apple of any de-
scription, and he wished he had been
born without any stomach, or at least
without any opening into 1t. He re-
solved that the next green apple he
ate would have TO be fired into him
with a shotgun.
After d while ne felt better and
| climbed up into the tree and ate three
more green apples that he had over
looked before.

THE MARKET A SUCCESS

The patronage accorded the new
city market at the opening this morn
ing assures the ultimate success Of
that institution. 1t is true few gard
eners took advantage of the opening
and many buyers who went to the
market were disappointed, but it has
now been demonstrated that the peo-
pie of the city will patronize the mar
ket If the gardeners will bring in their
produce. n undoubtedly the market
Will be crowded with sellers as well
as buyers Saturday.
The impression seems to have been
epread abroad that there would be a
charge made for the stalls in which
the produce is sold. This Is absolute
ly erroneous. This market is free and
open, any person who grows his pro-
dnce being privileged to sell free Of
charge.
The few gardeners and producers
who appeared at the market this
morning found their goods snapped up
by the eager buyers, and this. when

producers eager to share in the bene-
! fits Of this new civic enterprise.
The rumor that there would be a
\ charge made for the use Of the stalls,
kept many gardeners away. Several
gardeners made the statement that
they did not go to the opening for
that reason.
: One fact demonstrated at the open
ing today was that the well-to-do Of
1.-THE city are just as eager to patron
Fize the market as those in less COM
Portable circumstances. There were
many at the market in their automo-
btles this morning, n many we'll
dressed women appeared with their
market baskets on their arms.
One woman who happened to be at
the market just in time to get a good
selection from n Of the few gard
eners who put in an appearance, was
delighted with her purchases. She
stated that h price was exception
ally reasonable and the produce was
the choicest and freshest she had been
able to secure in years.
The agitation for a free central
market has been persistent for many
years on the part of farmers and
gardeners. The city has provided such
a place and the women of the city
have hocked there to purchase. II
would seem to be "up to" the garden
ters and farmers to get busy.

sWIMMER RS cRAMP.

The advice of O New York physician
to a class Of Y. NJ. C. A. swimmers
there may be made useful in North
Dakota. He said:
When seized with cramp, swim
without using the cramped limb,
and, while swimming, alternately
draw up and stretch out the limb
as far as possible, thus helping
nature to overcome the condition.
If the cramp becomes worse, turn
Over and float and exercise The
cranped leg or arm as much as
possible until the pain passes.
To, the swimmer a cramp ought to
be no more alarming than a foot
asleep out Of the water. AS in the
case of the foot asleep, the thing to
do is to keep navigating at reduced
speed and work out the affected mem
Der until it becomes normal again.
Swimmers who are said to die of
cramp, generally die Of fright.
