Now watch their naughty knowing

As they build up q great brown bAar.
No wonder Johnnie yelis with fright,
And scatters books to loft and right
Six tsddies under an old bear skin,
Can hardly hold their laughter Ia.
Some OF the books spill on the teds
And slap hard aches into t!,eir hears.
Then Johnnie SECS into the trick,
And feels much better mighty quick
In fact, he laughs III he II sore.
But the teddies sit about the floor.
And glumly try to figure out.
Just what there II to laugh about!

GRUMBLE DAY.

No salt in the oatmeal" srowlea
.,F1atter than sawdust." sighed Ger
Itruds.
"Of course" said mother, quietly.
What else did you expect on Grumble
Day"
children at the same time.
Yes. Grumble Day. l have decided
TO observe 1t as often as there Is a
demand for It."
What do you mean" asked Ger
trude.
We have Thanksgiving Day" re-
piled mother. Then we count mp our
lblessingA On that day We have an
unusual number OF temporal bless
Itngs. We rest. and feast, and have a
good time. Grumble Day is just the
opposite. II we feel like grumbling
0rumble Day. On such days We shall
have only the most necessary things
to eat. the plainest food. and the
hardest work"
Gertrude and Ned looked at each
other in dismay. Will lust one
grumble mean that we shall observe
Grumble Day." asked Ned.
"One grumble is enough" said
mother. when we have so much to be
thankful for"
Does everybody have to go without
because one person grumbles?" asked
Gertrude.
DO you thing 1t would be polite
for part OF us to eat more and have
a greater variety than the others
even II we deserved more?" asked
mother.
This is excellent toast" said Ned.
without waiting for Gertrude to reply
| Yes. too good for Grumble Day"
said father. slyly. as he slipped
anothed piece on Neds plate.
At dinner they had only one or two
substantial dishes, with no desert, and
for supper brown bread and milk; and
the children made no complaint. They
knew that mother could be relied on
to carry out what she undertook
That night Ned and Gertrude made
a vow not to make one word of COM
plant ever again
Next morning. Ned, being in a hurry.
took large spoonful of hot cereal
In his mouth.
'sPhew," he exclaimed. that oat-
meal is''--here. Gertrude kicked him
under the tablets lovely and hot"
he added, and the family laughed.
They both remembered after that.
and for three or four days no com
plant was heard In the family. They
were both sure that they were com
pletely cured OF grumbling.
Bread rolls" whined Gertrude.
I'm sick OF them: why don't We ever
have wafles7" Then she clapped her
hand over her mouth. Ned was look
inexpressbly Disguised.
But the bread rolls are lovely and
light" she added cheerfully
Too late" said mother and they
had another Grumbie Day.
That night mother talked It over
with them. II want to give you just
what you like best" she said, pro
vided II IL food for you I try very
hard to plan to have you suggest
things that you would like. But when
everything is served. and 1t Is ,mpos-
sibIe to change it for anything diff
tferent. complaint does no good. and It
certainly does the complainer harm"
| Three Of four Grumble Days com
pletely cured Ned and Gertrude, and
now Gertrude says that they have
Thanksgiving Day every day In the
year.--The Christian Guardian.

NELLIE's BIRTHDAY

The first thing that Nellie remem-
bered when sho woke was that II
was her birthday. and she said to her
SELF II am so glad 1t is Saturday"
Nellie was nine years old. and she
felt that she was a real big girl now,
AS soon as she had rubbed the
sleep out OF her eyes. she jumped UP
and dressed just AZ quickly as she
could and went down stairs.
The first thing she saw, as she en-
tered the dining-room, was a pile OF
packages OF all Shapes around her
plate.
After she had kissed the mamma
and papa, she started opening them.
There was a pretty silver bracelet
from Aunt Fannie. a ring with q real
stone from Aunt Mary, books from
Uncle Fred and Uncle Jack. dear
little work basket with the cutest
scissors. needle case, pin cushion. cot
ton, and everything that a work bas-
ket should have. from grandmother.
There were pencil boxes, hair ribbon
and many other things. But. strange
to say. there was nothing from ma
ma and papa
When Nellie had looked at ana ex-
claimed over everything, and had at
last settled down to eat her break
fast her papa said:
Nellie. wonder where mammals
and papa's present is7"
Nellie did not know what to say,
for she thought they had forgotten
her birthday
Then papa said; After you have
finished your breakfast we will show
you our present"
You may be sure that after Nellie
heard this she did not take long to
get through.
When breakfast was over. her papa
said, Now. girne. ! am going to
biindfold you He then tied up her
eyes with his handkerchief and led
her into a little room just off the
dining-room.
When she got in the middle Of tho
room he took off the handkerchief,
and what do you suppose she saw?
Her papa and mamma had fixed the
room so beautiful that she did not
know 1t.
The floor was covered with a pretty
mat. A low table with six OF the
cutest little chairs around 1t stood
in the middle OF the floor. On one
side was a sideboard, Just like man.
mas, only smaller. with glasses, water
pitchers. salt and pepper set. arrang-
ed just like mammals. In one OF the
drawers in the sideboard were two
table cloths and six dear little nap
kins: in the other drawer were
spoons, folks and knives. On the
other side OF the room was a china
closet, and in 1t was a whole set OF
china. with pink rosebuds on a white
ground.
One corner OF the room was screen
ed off Behind this was a perfect
little kitchen. with a cooking stove
with oven and flour holes for pots;
a little box filled with wood. and in

A Teddy Bear Story In Rhyme

Once upon a time . little boy had
six Teddy bears. He said to them:
'"reddfes, don't you run away,
Ilf be back and then VEN play"
Thus Johnnie speaks and goes indoors
to help his mother with the chores
The teddies. just to have some fun.
Climb in \ barrel, one by one
They think they'll have their master

When he comes back and finds them

The Elder Duck.

The name elder Games from lee

duck and goose. It liz bird that

found in Labrador. Greenland. and

The elder Is valuable because Of Its
very fine. sole down. The mother
plucks this from her breast, and
makes her nest Of 1t. Then when she
is sitting upon her eggs and has to
leave them to find food. she covers the
eggs with more down. to keep them
warm. The father elder never feeds
the mother when she Is sitting on her
eggs. but lets her hunt her meals for
herself. When elder hunters rob the
nest again and again. and tho mother
haS rsed all her own down. tho father
will pluck that from his breast to Give
for the nest.
The down Is soft gray in color. It
is SO very light that threc-fourths OF

while two or three pounds may be
crushed into q ball that one can hold
in the hand Since an elders nest
Yields only one-half pound in q whole
year. you can readily understand why
a real elder down quilt costs q good
deal Of money.
The men who raise elders for money
dig holes In rocks facing the ocean.
and In largo numbers the elders make
their nests in these. Before the eggs
are laid. the owners robs the nest Of

of pots and pans. On one side was
a dresser for washing up dishes and
cake or bread on.
Nellie flew around with screams Of
delight. Every now and then when
she saw something particularly cuts
she would rush up to her mamma
and papa and give them a hug, then
off she would fly again.
After she had seen all the wonders
OF her room she dropped on one Of
