the frog broke and scattered about

That would be pretty. and there is
great good and use in pretty and oeau-

when you might want flower to do
you a favor"
Favor. Har laughed Bully. How
could flower or a Jack-in- the pulpit
do US a favor7-
Il don't know" answered Uncle
Wiggilys but think they might, some
day. Don't break any more, Bully"
Well. Bully said he wouldn't though
he did not see Jack-in-rhe-p pulpit
flower could ever do him a favor. But
let us wait and see what happens as
they say in books.
Uncle Wiggily went back to his hol-

he gave Bully
Never mind perhaps III have an adj

Surely enough he did.
Uncle Wiggily was out walking in the

defence because they can't sit on it all.
Nothing is more pathetic than a banker
who. is trying to gather in all tie
money in the country after a bumper
crop has been paid for and to guard it
in his vaults, shaking a solemn head
whenever a manufacturer wants a
small loan. He can't do il any more
than hen can set on "a eggs.
The Spectator also has a good excuse
for examining the prospective wheat
crop with earnest care. More men have
become milliOnaires by guessing how
much wheat we are going to raise IN
this country than have got the same
result by raising wheat, clad in over
ais and an old straw hat; and a sud-
den, unexpected drop of 10 cents in. the
price OF wheat crop which will not
be ripe for three months has ruined
more men than the chinch bug ever
has.
The only people who do not need
to worry about the wheat crop are
the ordinary Americans who are going
to eat il next year The crop may be
big or small. expensive or cheap, but
IL is going 10 be sufficient. The Ameri-
can citizen who sits down with a fur
roWed brow and wonders whether the
wheat supply is going to last through
June is not only borrowing trouble but
he has gone into the manufacturing
end.
