Bedtime Stories
For Little Folks
BABY GIRL ALICIA.

When Mother said she was going
to name her baby Alicia, the Queer
was there. OF course, Mother did not
know it, and the baby did not know
it, but just the same the Fairy Queer
was there. And what is more, it was
really. the Fairy Queen that put the
idea in Mothers head to call her baby
girl Alicia, but Mother cunt know
that either.
At-any rate the baby girl was named
Alicia, although her great aunt said
she thought she should have been
named Jane, after her. And her moth
er's cousin said she thought the baby
girl should have been named Edith
Just the same her name was Alicia,
and Elizabeth for her two grand
mothers, all on account of the Fairy
Queens having put the idea in moth
er's head without her knowing it.
When baby girl Alicia was S years
old she had big blue eyes and long
golden curls, and if she had been tiny
she would have looked like a little
fairy queen herself, which has a great
deal to do with the story. Because,
you see, the Fairy Queen knew this
and that was why she took enough
interest in Alicia to put the idea in
Mothers head about the name.
Now, Father liked his baby girl,
and he liked her name, which made
the Fairy Queen glad. And of course,
Mother liked the name, so that every
thing was all right. Then one fine
spring day Fathers cousin, a maiden
lady. came to visit Father and Mother
And right here the trouble began.
Now, you must know first of all
that this maiden cousin-let's call her
Cousin Sarah-was very rich. Also.
we might as vel admit it. Father
hoped some day to get great deal of
Cousin Sarahs money. But, anyway.
when Cousin Sarah had been with
Father and Mother a couple of days
she said that she regretted extremely
they're just the words she used) the
fact that their child had been given
such a frivolous name. Now, o,
course, this made Father and Mother
feel badly, and even little bit mad,
but they didn't say anything.
Where did you get it, Nary
Cousin Sarah asked Mother.
why, it just popped into my head,
said Neither little queerly, not real
izing that it had not popped in at all.
but been put there by the Fairy Queen.
'Well, I'm extremely sorry" was all
Cousin Sarah said. But both Father
and Mother could tell by the tone of
her voice that the great deal of money
Father had hoped for would not come
to him.
The next day Cousin Sarah and
Father were talking in the library
about their relatives. Presently Cou-
sin Sarah spoke of her grandmother,
whom she loved very dearly, and Fa
Their agreed with her that her grand
mother Alicia was very nice indeed.

/ slightest INTEREST,"" declared the father
in accents most sincere. And so, my
dear, the best thing that you and John
can do is just to run off and get mar
ried quietly.
mo, your mother and / won't at
tend the ceremony, because people
must not guess that we know a thing
about it. This is really much the best
way And the arrangement will please
everybody, for it will give the gossips
glorious chance to talk, it will save
your acquaintance the expense of CIV
ing you some probably hideous and
quite useless wedding presents: it
will save you the fatigue and the wor-
ry of a big church wedding and enter
tainment and, above all, it will save
my pursei So we ought all to be thor
oughly satisfied with my plant"
And everybody appeared satisfied;
that is the curious part of the whole
proceeding. The bride didn't mind a
little notoriety, for notoriety always
does attach itself to the runaway
match. But think the brides mother
was a little vexed. The other ma
trans kept reminding her of the Won
>derful displays made at their respec-
tive daughters nuptials, until the
dear old lady felt that she had indeed
missed the chance of lifetime.
But the person who was most salts
fed of all was the bridegroom. For
men do hate and detest the fuss and
the display of wedding. THANK
heaven. Pm spared that!" murmured
this bridegroom fervently to himself
The little bride sighed contentedly
For all that she wanted out of the
whole affair was-the man. And she
had certainly secured him.

25o,ooo GALLONS APPLE JUICE.

When the vinegar factory few days ago quit buying and grinding apples it had 25o,o0o gallons of apple juice in it's tanks here. That is not a record run by any means, about half the capacity Of the plant, but t Is 6 very good showing. And when 1t is considered that all of the apples with the exception of a few loads, came from right around Rogers and the average price paid was about 20 cents Q bushel. il has been q very acceptable addition to the income of the local aple growers. The total amount of apples used was some thing over three million pounds, and at fifty pounds to the bushel. the usual average, it means that they bought about 60.000 bashels.-Ros- CTS Democrat.
