winter long, and didn't wake until
, she begun to smell the violets in
the spring. Down in coy little
home beneath the roots of a great
oak tree, she spent her winters in
quiet slumber.
But as soon as the violets peeped
forth in the valley She awoke and
put on her little green gown, such
as all little wood fairies wear, and
played joyously with the other lit
tile wood fairies through the sun
ny days and moonlight nights.
| But the violets only lasted lit
tie while and when they were gone
the little fairy had to go back to
sleep again, for at her birth the
fairy queen had decreed that she
was to be permitted to view the
outside world only during violet
time.
ooh, l don't want to go back to
sleep" She cried, one lovely, lovely
day, when the little valley was blue
with the open violets. "Just think,
have never seen an outdoor June.
Tell me-, She asked Of a flutteriug
,moth, is it any lovelier than A
pril or May?"
Much more lovely said the beau.
tiful moth, fluttering her gauzy
wings" You wouldn't need your lit
tie brown cloak then at all, and
| every night the FAIRIES meet ON the
hilltops to dance with their sha-
dows."
ooh, violets, why can't you stay
longer?" cried the eager little
fairy.
Come with me-" said a little
canary who had been singing in the
oak tree. Il know, place where vic
lets always bloom"
| SO the little fairy perched upon
the back of the little bird and
they flew away UP into the blue sky
b long, long, way off till they came
| TO a big mouse OF glass, and through
THE open windows were hundreds
and hundreds OF violetts who greet
ed the little fairy with open arms.
| Come and live with u.s. they
begged. Your mother was a violet
and we will always care for YOU,
and you can be happy all summer
and all winter, too.
So now the little fairy doesn't
have to sleep all winter, but plays
with the little violet children all
the year round. She has almost for
gotten THE time when she slept be-
Meath the oak tree, awaking only a
few weeks in the spring.

little heat as possible be applied.
Too much sugar gives the preserves

The Baby Lio1s


Mark and Monk were baby lions.
They were born in city park in
Can. fornia. Their mother did not
SEN to want them and tried to kill
them, bat her keeper, who was very
proud of the baby lions. took them
from her befoe she could harm
them.
He took them to the house and
made a warm bed for them. Mona
the dog, shifted and shifted and
her master feared she would
mot be kind to them, and watched
her closely, but she soon became
accustomed to them and did not at
tempt ito hurt them.
Then a funny thing happened.
Mona adopted them, and cared for
them as though they were her very
own babies. She was not very
much bigger than they but she cud-
led them and licked their soft coats
and seemed to love them dearly.
She took such good care of them,
They grew 50 fast that they Were
soon bigger chan she, and they
played so roughly with her that
she didn't know exactly what to
think of them.
They romped and played on the
grass and children petted them
just as they would pet a kitten.
But after awhile they grew so
large and strong, and were SO rough
with their play that their keeper
was obliged to shut them UP in a
cage for fear they would hurt some
| body.
OF course they didn't like that
and sulhed, and acted very much
disguised. They didn't understand
why they were not allowed to run
AMI play any more.
| But bye and bye a beautiful thing
happened to them. l am sure you
could not guess what it was SO l
will tell you.
They We're given a nice, long auto
mobile ride to large and beauti-
full park away out in the country
among the hills, where they would
have room to play as much as they
chose.
There they are happy and SEEM
ingly contented. AS they never lived
the wild free life of wild lions they
know nothing about such freedom
and don't miss it,
They are very much like spoiled
children in their behavior. When
their food does not suit them they
pout and unless very hungry will
not eat it. They put it down in a
corner and go away to another cor
ner and feel sorry for themselves.
But usually they are given good
food and good care and seem happy
lamong the trees and hills of their
beautiful park.

THE RAINBOW FAIRIES

Two little clouds one summer day
Went flying through the sky.
They went SO fast they bumped
b their heads,
And both began to cry.
Old Father Sun looked out and said
20, never mind, my dears;
I'll send my little fairy folks
To dry your falling tears .
One fairy's dress was violet,
And one was indigo,
In blue, green, yellow, orange, red,
They made pretty row.
The cloudlets tears they wiped away
And then, UP in the sky
Inc sunbeams made a line, and
there
They hung their gowns to dry.

Will You Read This Twice?

very important question
to-day which every housekeeper
must decide for herself is whether
she prefers pure, cream Of tartar
baking powder like Royal or
whether she is willing to use alum
baking powder in food.
One kind is easily distin-
guished from the other, since the
laws Of various States require
the ingredients to be printed
upon the label. If anyone is in
doubt which to use, it is worth
while to ask the family doctor.
Then decide.
And when once a decision is
reached let no advert isement, or
DEALERS argument, or canvasser's
solicitat ion, change the deci-
sion. It is not question Of
few cents or Of pleasing a sales
man. It is question Of health.
If this appeals to you as rea-
sonable and sensible advice, it
is worth reading twice. And it is
worth remembering.

BASE BALL.

Interest in league base ball playing
in Wausau this year is at present
lacking. No enthusiasm seems man.
ifest in that direction. The public
pulse has been repeatedly felt in refer
ence towards its continued existence,
but the club members have met with
every encouragement. Those usually
interested in the game seem to be
otherwise busily engaged and cannot
spare the time and money to assist
in making go of it. The conclusion
seems to be seriously reached, that
the club will abandon further at
tempt in the matter. 1t is hoped,
however, that some one or some set
of fans will, before the season is too
far advanced, put their heads toge ther
and plan differently.

A JOINT MEETING.

The local Medical and Dental Socie-
ties are planning to meet jointly on
the evening of Monday, March 18th.
This meeting is to be held at the
Wausau club at $50 p. M, and will
be in the nature of a social gathering
as well as business meeting.
A program is being prepared as
follows:
Business methods in medical and
dental practice-Miss Anna Monahan.
Recognition of precancerous LESSONS
W. ID. Sentons, NJ. D., Marshfeld.
Treatment of immature cataract
and other eye diseases by mercury
cyanid-H. T. Schlegel, M. d.
Some points of contact-B. III. Con-
lin, d. d. S.
Diagnosis and treatment of coughs
e. Roy, M. d.
AS the two professions meet upon
common grounds touching at many
points and each acknowledges the i'm
portance of the other, there will doubt
less be a free discussion which will
prove instructive as we'll as entertain
ing. The day is passing when the
public regard such societies as ''a
trust" for they recognize that the
friendly interchange of ideas at such
meetings is of value and brings a
profit in which the laity as well as
the professions share.
