done.
Now there was one thing that kit
ties and puppies, and even human
children. know very well. That Is
that they must not put things up
their noses and in their ears. So
when Tom picked up pea and pre-
tended to put It in his ear, and then
put two in his little nose. Teddy
knew at once that he was just max
ing believe. Tom would show his
empty paw aftervard, but wise
Teddy knew that he had let the pea
roll down into his sleeve.
Binkie looked astonished then
Teddy put a pea to his nose. one %
his ear, then showed his empty paw.
Binkie was not 10 be outdone. He
was sure that they had really COM
mitted the awful sin, and he wanted
to be in It, too. So he really put one
pea in his nose and one in his ear.
They all laughed. not dreaming that
they had fooled him into really put
ting them in his nose and ears, and
then he waited. Grandmother Tabby
came out into the yard, and Binkie
punched Tommy and asked anxious
ly, But when do you take 'eIn out?"
Tommy began to laugh, and laugh,
and Teddy rolled on the ground, and
even Miss Flax laughed SO hard that
she split a seam. Then Ted and Tom
saw Granny Tabby coming, and
without waiting for anything else TO
happen they got up and hurried OF.
BY this time Binkie was in tears.
What's all this7" asked Grand
mother Tabby. Binkie sobbed:
They all put peas up their noses.

went after the pea with q knitting

Binkie, for playing with those two
rascals. but they are bad, and ought
to be spanked
But by this time the two rascals
were running far down the road es

a spanking. out Of sound for a scold-
ing, and in one second more they
were also out OF sight, too.

-HERE are many mothers OF I'M
agfnation and education and va
rious other admirable character
istics who are at loss for
names for their children.
Family jealousy often makes it neces-
sary to avoid family names. The first
grandson can onlv be named for one Of
its Rrandfathers-so the. result is that
it is named for neither. And II there
are seven aunts-the first niece honors
them all by singing Uut none of them
as a nattern-so far as the name goes.
The danger OF confusion makes 1t ad-
visable often not to repeat the mothers
or fathers name. Every one has known
the household where the sounding Of
some name brought three or four per-
sons-perhaps Julia the daughter. Julia
the mother and Julia the grandmother.
Then personal dislike. through associa-
ton makes other unusual names unde-
sIrable The father once knew a Mar
garet he did not like-so that name will
not do. A little boy who used TO pull
the mothers braids when she was a
SCHOOLGIRL was named Frank-so that
disposes Of Frank and It's allies for
names.
The state Of doubt Of the young moth
er who cannot decide a name for her
baby is understandable in view OF all
these things:
Here are some names to help such a
young mother out of her predicament
