Fridays wind and rain storm struck
Rutland forcibly, many trees being blown
down and buildings unroofed. Much
damage was done in all sections of the
city. Lighting facilities We're also badly
interfered with and electric cars were I'M
able to go from West Rutland to Cas-
tleton from noon until 7 o'clock in the
evening. In Castleton poles and trees
were laid low, many windows were brok-
en- and the storm was considered the
most severe in many years. In Ben
nington the storm ragged SO furiously
that the schools were closed at noon
and the young woman clerks in the
stores did not return for the afternoon.
In Bristol, farm buildings were badly
damaged in some instances and trees
fell all over the town. 1t was estimated
that the wind reached a velocity of
mile a minute.

czARINA ESCAPED THE CROWD
unweIcore Popularity Forced Wife Of
Monarch to Climb Ladder When
Recognized.

The czarinas popularity in Russia
has been enormously increased since
the war on account of the work that
she has been doing for the Russian
Red Cross.
II is interesting to recall that her
majesty once had an extraordinary ex-
perience for a royal parsonage while
ON a visit to Germany. She was out
shopping one day. attended only by
one lady companion. and she had
hoped to remain unrecognized by the
people While she was making some
purchases in a jewelers. shop. how
ever. the news Of her identity got
abroad, and in a very few moments
there was a large crowd outside the
premises.
Exit through the front door was out
of the question. so the czarina asked
the jeweler to let herself and her COM
panion out of the back of the shop.
The jeweler replied that that was
impossible, as the back yard was in
closed by a very high boarding which
would effectually cut on their re
treat.
THAT does not matter" said the
empress. Get ladder and We will
climb over it."
A ladder was brought and the car
ina and her companion rushed up IT,
climbed over the boarding. jumped into
quiet street, and made their es'
cape as quickly as they could.
A minute later the jewelers. shop
window was smashed to atoms by
the surging and excitable erowd.-Re'

PLAY FOR HOT SUMMER DAYS
Modelling in Special Dough Is Anus
inq and OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Mrs
May Be Made Permanent.

There are lots of days in summer
when it's too hot to play rough, noisy
games, and yet blocks and familiar
toys have no attraction.
Some children have found that mod
cling in a special dough is packs of
fun and cool as well.
The dough is made by taking cup.
full Of cornstarch, half cupful of salt
and one teaspoonful of gum arabic.
mixing them together thoroughly. and
then pouring enough boiling water
over them to make stiff dough.
Turn this out on board, over which
a little starch and salt have been
sprinkled, and you will be able to fash
ion 1t into whatever objects you de-
sire. The more it is worked the better
dough it becomes.
If an especially good model is made.
it can be put in the oven and baked
hard, so that it is permanent
souvenir.
All sorts of things, animals, flowers,
heads, dishes, vases. figures. etc. can
be fashioned with just little expert
menting.

A dish of potatoes trotted after it,
dishes of food of all kinds came in
next, and just as one of the flowers
was closing the door loud call was
heard and in rushed pot of tea, putting
steam through it's nose.
ooh, dear" it said, I'm all out of
breath, | ran so fast; | waited to steep
and the other dishes got ahead of me,
but | know the dear old lady would
rather have me than any"
The flowers ran around the table,
placing the dishes upon it, and the
legs ran out the door as soon as the
dishes were moved. They did look
so funny, all those legs running with
out any bodies.
Now said tall sunfower, your
dinner is ready, mother"
And all the flowers crowded around
her chair and pushed it to the table
81 did not know you were so strong"
said the lady.
No" said one flower, "but you knew
we were beautiful; you see more
beauty in us than anyone and you love
us all the year. That makes us strong
in our love for you and we can do any
thing"
While the old lady was eating her
dinner some of the flowers ran into
the closet and looked into the empty
-four barrel and when they put on the
cover it was full of soft white -four.
Then the sugar box was visited and
when they left the pantry there was
food to last for the winter. When the
old lady finished her dinner the flow
ers cleared the table aid then they
began to dance.
They sang as they ~hirled around
the room, and soon the old lady was
asleep. Then the flowers stopped
dancing. They went to the fire and
put on big log and then one of them
pointed to the clock.
Look" she said. at is one minute
OF twelve and we only borrowed these
clothes up to twelve o'clock. We had
better hurry"
They opened the door very softly
but when they reached the steps the
clock began to strike and when the
last stroke sounded there were in the
moonlight a group of fairies; the
flowers had disappeared. The fairies
had visited the dear old lady dressed
as her flower children, because she
loved them so dearly, and they thought
if they disguised themselves as the
flowers they could help the old lady
without causing her to wonder who
they were.

and say to your neighbor, Have you
heard the king cannot do that with
this finger?"
The inevitable answer comes
No, why can't hep
And you reply
Because it is minen"
Another little bit of fun is to ask
your neighbor to place one hand upon
himself or herself in such a position
that the other hand cannot touch it.
Some amusing contortions generally
take place before this little difficulty
is solved The answer to this Ques-
ton is illustrated by Fig. 2.
Another trick with a tumbler, and
one that not always, but nearly al
ways, succeeds, is to borrow silver
quarter from one of the company and
invert a tumbler and place it upon
the top. You then ask the owner of
the coin if it is on the top or the bot
tom of the glass, and he will hesitate
before he replies. When he has given
his answer, you say
"Oh, shall not go on with this
trick. / see you know it." and at the
same time you hand him back, not
the quarter, but nickel substituted
for it, In nine cases out of ten, the
nickel will be pocketed without the
change having been noticed. and that

INEXPENSIVE SULPHUR BATHS
AT HOME

People travel long distances and
spend large sums of money to secure
the benefits of sulphur springs and
baths because for generations sulphur
has been known to be one Of natures
most valuable curatives unequalled as
a blood purifier. BY dissolving to 4
tablespoonfuls of Hancock's Sulphur
Compound in hot bath you get the
same effect and your system absorbs
the sulphur through the pores of the
skin. For prickly heat and summer
skin troubles of infants and children
use teaspoonful of the Sulphur Com
pound in bowl of warm water. This
makes a refreshing bath and quickly
alleviates the pain. Sold by all deal

THE FAIRIES DISGUISE

Once upon time there lived an
edge of the woods. She had little
garden back of the house and in front
grew the prettiest flowers of all kinds.
There were golden-glow, sunflowers,
pansies, petunias, marigolds and all
the gay-colored flowers you can think
of, and she called them her children.
The old lady loved them dearly and
gave them the best of care
She had plenty to eat in the summer
when the vegetables grew in the gar
den, but when the winter came it was
very hard for the old lady to get
enough to eat.
One night when the wind was blow
ing around her little house, she sat be.
fore the fire wondering what she would
eat the next day, for all the food was
gone. IF only had my flower chill
dren to look at" she said, that would
be some comfort, but they are asleep
under the cold ground and will not
show me their smiling faces until
spring"
Suddenly the door opened and lit
tie creature, or, | should say, flower,
for she looked like a pansy walking
about. entered the room. Then rag
ged sailor came dancing in, then a
marigold followed, and a golden-glow
sunfiower walked very stiffiy into the
room. and soon the place seemed like
flower garden. 1t looked as though
all the flowers had come to visit the
old lady from under the snow.
why, my children, how did you get
here?" the old lady asked. Il did not
know you could get out of the cold
earth before spring"
I'VE do not leave there often" said
one flower, but we knew you were
lonely and wanted us and we begged
to be allowed to visit you just for one
night" Each flower had smiling face
and the old lady quite forgot her
hunger
I'VE will get supper for you," said
one flower. you take care of us all the
spring and summer and for one night
we will wait on YOU"

platter with a roast of beef upon it.
