TAME SQUIRRELS

were greedily devouring a bag of
popcorn they had broken open.
Harry could not help laughing at
the old woman's fright; but he
brushed the squirrels off the basket
and then carried it to her, the little
animals running after him.
The old woman was very glad to
get her basket again, and very much
surprised to see Harry stand still
and let the squirrels run all over him
to get the peanuts in his pockets.

mittens. 1t was great fun for him
and for the squirrels, too; but the old
woman thought 1t very dangerous

Harry had gone with his mother to
market, and had spent the only three
pennies he had in the world in buy
ing peanuts for the squirrels in the
grounds of the State House. There
were a great many of the little ami
mails, and in the trees were boxes in
which they made their homes.
AS Harry and his mother entered
the grounds an old woman with a big
basket on her arm full of provisions
brushed past them. She had gone
only q little way when she noticed
the squirrels skipping over the grass.
She seemed surprised and stopped to
look at them.
The moment she stood still the
squirrels ran toward her from every
direction, thinking she wanted to
feed them. Not understanding this
and terribly frightened, the old wom-

When she thought she was at safe

Here's a Pretty Girdle

One of the newest ideas in crush
girdles is to have the girdle fasten
directly in front with an inverted
bow.
The two soft, short loops of the
bow hang down over the skirt.
The longer ends are cut bias, and
the points are tackled or hooked upon
the waist at about the bust line.
The effect is almost the same as
the much-worn waist model of two
triangular tabs of contrasting silk
on lace or chiffon waist.

One Way to Boil Rice

Rice boiled SO that each kernel is
round and separate from the others Is
done in that way by adding cold water
after the process of cooking has be-
gun.
First wash and dry the desired
quantity of rice and put it into boil
ing water, to which salt has been
added.
When 1t begins to swell add a tea
cupful of cold water.
When 1t boils up again add another
cup of cold water, and repeat until
the kernels are swelled and begin
to crack.
While the grains remain separate
pour off the water and drain the rice
in q colander before serving.

When the sweater is nearly dry put

Had heard lion roar,
And gallop'd off with ali his might
AS he had done before.
Away went Gilpin, and away
Went Gilpin's hat and wig;
He lost them sooner than at first.
For why?-they were too big.
Now Mistress Gilpin, when she aaw
Her husband posting down
Into the country far away,
She pulpd out half-a-crown:
And thus unto the youth she said.

John coming back, amain,
Whom In trfce he tried to stop.
BY catching at his rein;
But not performing what he meant.
And gladly would have done,

And made him faster run.
Away went Gilpin, and away
Went postboy at his heels,
The postboys horse right glad to
miss
The numbering of the wheels.
Six gentlemen upon the road
Thus seeing Gilpin fly,
With postboy scampering in the
They raised the hue and cry--
stop lthiefl-stop thiefl-a high
Wayman!"
Not one of them was mute;
And all and each that pass'd that
way
Did join in the pursuit
And now the turnpike gates again
Flew open in short space,
The tollmen thinking as before
That Gilpin rode a race.
And so he did, and won it, tool
For he got first to town;
Nor stopp'd till where he had
got up
He did again get down. I
Now let us sing. Long Live the
King"
And Gilpin, long live he:
And when he next doth ride abroad.
May I be there to see!

Time was when sequins took their

Improve Your Voice

A sharp nasal voice, squeaky
shrill voice, or a heavy rough voice
can be greatly remedied by speaking
word exercises at the piano.
Using chords to the speaking exer-
cises will help pull the voice into
some sort of musical tone.
Private study can practically
eliminate these defects if a good
teacher is employed.

JOHN GILPIN
CONTINUED from Yesterday


Then might all people well discern
The bottles he had slung;
A bottle swinging at each side.
AS hath been said or sung.
The dogs did bark. the children
scream'd,
Up flew the windows all;
And every soul cried out-"well
done!"
As loud as he could oawl.
Away went Gilpin-who but he
His fame soon spread around,
HE carries weight; he rides q race!
IT'S for a thousand pound"
And still as fast as he drew near.
Twas wonderful to view.
How in a trice the turnpike men
Their gates wide open threw.
And now, as he went bowling down
His reeking head full low.
The bottles twain behind his back
Were shatter'd at q blow.
Down ran the wine into the road,
Most piteous to be seen,
smoke
AS they had basted been.
But still he seem'd to carry weight,
With leathern gtrdle braced;
For all might see the bottle-necks
Still dangling at his waist.
Thus all through merry Islington
These gambols he did play.
And till he came unto the Wash
OF Edmonton SO gay.
And there he threw the wash about
On both sides Of the way,
Just like unto trundling mop
Or wild goose at play.
At Edmonton his loving wife
From the balcony spied
Her tender husband, wondering
To see how he did ride.
stop. stop, John Gilpin!-Here's
the house.
They all at once did cry;
1.-THE dinner waits, and we are
tired"
Said Gilpin, 80 am II"
But yet his horse was not whit
Inclined to tarry there;
For why? His owner had house
Full ten miles off, at Ware.
So like an arrow swift he flew
Shot by an archer strong;
So did he f1y-which brings me to
The middle of my song.
Au,a,, x.ro,1t (stJnt1 o,,t ~ hraotb
And sore against his will;
Till at his friend the Calendars
His horse at last stood still.
The Calendar, amazed to see
His neighbor in such trim,
Laid down his pipe, flew to the gate
And thus accosted him.
What news? What news? your
tidings tell!
Tell me you must and shall
Say, why bareheaded you are come
Or why you come at a1l?"
Now Gilpin had plee SAINT wit,
And loved timely joke;
And thus unto the Calendar
In merry guise he spoke:
II came, because your horse would
come,
And If I well forbode,
My hat and wig will soon be here,
They are upon the road"
The calendar. right glad to find
His friend in merry pin,
Returnd him not a single word,
But to the house went In.
Whence straight he came, with hat
and wig,
A wig that f1ow'd behind;
A hat not much the worse for wear,
Each comedy in its kind.
He held them up, and in his turn
Thus show'd his ready wit,
my head is twice as big as yours,
They therefore needs must fit.
"But let me scrape the dirt away,
