From Norwich to Dover,

On the 20th of June last summer we tock the 9.02 a. m. train at Norwich for Putnam. At Putnam we took an other train for Boston, where we ar rived at 12.
 At Boston we came to the South station, which covers eleven acres. Over twelve hundred trains leave the station each day.
 At the ticket office we purchased tickets for the elevated railway to the North station. We suddenly found that my younger brother was missing; but we were soon treasured, as we saw him coming down the entrance crying. He said that a man had sent him back. This man was the ticket collector. as there are no conductors on those cars.
 We took the Rockingham express, which stopped at Rockingham and then Dover, N. H., at l p. m. This express travels at the rate of thirty or more miles an hour.
 We arrived in Dover at 2.45 D. m., where my aunt was at the station waiting for us.
 Dover is situated on the Cocheco and Piscataqua rivers, has a fine wa ter power and is about half the size of the Rose of New England. I will write about my stay in that city and my departure next week. PAUL E. MAURICE, Age 12. Vorcai1lcS

STORIES WRITTEN BY WIDE
 AWAKES.
Caught Out in a Storm.

One summer when I was at Fish CTS Island, had a very narrow escape from drowning. My mother, sisters, two cousins and set off one sunshiny day in our little launch, the Juanita, for visit to the life saving station The station is about four miles from our house, situated on the east end of the island.
 While we were at the station, the sentinel in the tower saw a black ob- ject far out on the Sound. He told the captain and the captain gave the order to launch the Hfeboats. In a flash the life savers were speeding toward the object. Soon they returned, as we thought with a drowning man. But imagine our surprise when we saw them towing a large log, fallen ed!
 After a visit to a pheasant farm nearby We started for home. As we were pulling up the anchor we saw black clouds gathering in the direction of New London and the lightning was flashing. Before we had gone half a mile the storm broke, and such a storm! It hailed, thundered, and the lightning was very sharp. The waves seemed mountains high. Then for good luck the engine stopped. We were drifting rapidly toward the rocks and the water was coming into the boat My cousin quickly threw out the an chor
 Luckily we had a rowboat towing behind. Somehow we managed to climb into 1t. My cousin pulled so hard that an oar broke We only had one pair, so one was of no use; but the waves carried us quickly to the shore. How glad we were to feel the land. We all sat under a big boulder, which was as hot as a furnace. and waited until the storm was over.
 We could not row out to the launch and as night was coming on we had to walk home. It was a long walk, and drenched as we were, not a very pleasant one. All the neighbors thought we were lost.
 After supper there was a beautiful sunset and not a ripple on the water Then my cousins rowed back for the Juanita and at night we were all safe and happy.

The Despised EIy.

The common house fly is found wherever man is. It mesawith the warm weather and stays until killed by the cold; but some are saved during the winter in warm places, and from these are raised the swarms which fill our houses in summer. Flies are usu- ally most numerous around stables.
 All house flies are of about the same size. The very small ones and the very large ones, which we often see about the house, belong to other kinds. Among the smaller kinds are the cheese fly, which lays it's eggs in cheese. and makes the maggots that live in 1t.
 The bluebottle fly, which is one of the larger kinds, lays it's eggs in meat and therefore is found mostly around dead animals, slaughter houses and butcher shops.
 People often ask what are flies made for, but if it were not for this little in sect the death rate of our cities and towns would be much higher than it is.
 Flies deposit their eggs in every animal as soon as it is dead, and the maggots feed upon it, and thus act as scaVengers, purifying the summer air by supping up all sors of decaying things which if left to putrefy would bring cholera, dysentery, typhoid fever and other diseases.
 So the fly is one of mans best friends, instead of being a pest ,as it is usually considered

How i Was Friohtened,

One hot summer day I thought 1 would take @ walk in the woods. It seemed as if there was not a breath of air stirring. The branches of the trees did not move, unless a bird, tired of flight, stopped to rest on them. The trees were decked in their green foli- age, and the flowers were strewn about on the ground, dressed in their bril- liant colors
 I followed a winding path which led to bubbl1ng brook, sparkling in the sun. As 1 walked onward the woods became denser and the air cooler. The birds were there, singing their gay songs, and occasionally a squirrel tering and scoIding, if things did not go right. l stopped in the cool shade of these trees and rested before I jour- neyed homeward.
 After I had rested for a while, l started back, following the same wind ing path I had taken. As I walked leisurely along, I thought I heard the bushes moving farther ahead of me. stopped and listened. Sure enough, there was something; whether it was man or beast I did not know, but I did know that I was frightened.
 l gazed around me, but no refuge could I see. As it came nearer I de- clded that it must be an animal by its step; but what I could not imagine By this time my heart was almost in my mouth, but I dared not move for fear of making a noise, which would o1 course attract the creatures attention I watched the bushes in the direc- tion from which the animal was com ing. All of sudden from among the bushes there appeared a little white head. I sank to the ground and could not keep from laughing, for there ahead of me stood my pet sheep. Ii had often followed me on a Journey in the woods, but never before had Il given me such a scare as this. LAURA M. GREENE, Age 15. Willimantic

The Happiest Boy,

Once there was a king who had a little boy whom he loved. He gave him beautiful rooms to live in, and pictures and toys and books to amuse him. He gave him a pony to ride, and a row boat on a lake and servants. He provided teachers who were to give him knowledge that would make him good and great; but for all this the young prince was not happy. He wore a frown wherever he went, and was always wishing for something he did not have.
 At length a magacian came to court. He saw the boy, and said to the king:
 T can make your son happy, but you must pay me my own price for telling you the secret.''
 Well" said the king. what you ask I will give.''
 So the magician took the goy into a private room. He wrote something with a white substance on a piece ot paper. Next he gave the boy a lighted candle, and told him to hold it under the paper, and then see what he could read. Then the magiciar went away and asked no price at all The boy did as he was told, and the white letters turned to beautiful blue. They formed these words:
 Do kindness to some one every day"
 The prince made use of the secret and became the happiest boy in the kingdom.

A Walk in the Woods,

A week ago last Sunday my moth CT, brother and my sisters, two little girls and myself, went for walk in the woods. We started from the house about two o'clock. We went down the road a little ways and then turned onto a path There we had to get over a fence. It was very hard to get over because it was made of barbed wire. After we got over we went on past the old oak tree into a lot which my father owns called "the Rye lot.'' There we crossed a little brook and went on up the hill. Then mamma stopped beside the path and cut off some little branches of laurel there. She sat down and took a cut a leaf in two and put it into the split in the twig.
 We stood around wondering what it was. What dc you think it was? It was 8 laurel whistle. She made each one of us one. As we ran through the woods blowing our whistles mann ma said we sounded like crows.
 We wont down into the maple swamp where MT. Swan is cutting wood for papa. After we saw how much wood he had cut we came back into the path that led through MT. Swiders lot and over the stone bridge, up the road to my sisters house where we left her little girls. Then we went on down to our house
 We were very tired when we reach ed home.

Another Orphan.

Another Orphan. Les Wallace in Denver Post. I'm only q colt and I don't under
 stand I wonder if ever I may?- But there's something wrong, some
 where, I know, For they're taking my mother away. We were happy together, my mother
 and I.
 But we'll be together no more, For last night they said-tho I don't
 understand More horses are needed for war! -"The mare goes tomorrow,"-ny
 mother they meant; And now tomorrow is here, And they're leading her off-oh, what
 will I do When it's dark-and mothers not
 near? She nuzz1ed me softly and kissed me
 goodby- There were tears, bitter tears, in
 her eyes 'Be brave" she bade me, tour masters
 are men, And whatever men do must be wise!'' But something is wrong-my mother
 is taken Forever and ever away I'm only colt, so don't understand wonder if ever I may?

Kite EIvind.

Dear Uncle Jed: One night after school I went out to fly my kite. At first I had trouble in getting it up, but at last I succeeded. The wind was blowing very hard and the kite darted very much in the wind. It had very long blue tail which made many grace full curves and turns.
 A little girl looking out of her win dow said:
 Mamma, see the pretty kite.'
 Her mother looked, too, and said:
 'I think it is beautiful, too"
 They were watching very long time. Once the wind stopped little and the kite almost went into the trees but the wind began to blow and the kite went far out.
 One day as was flying my kite heard a great shout. I went to see what it was, but when I came to the spot saw lot of boys up in a tree untangling a kite. So I went back where I flew it before. put 1t up again. When it was growing dark took it down and went home.
