she did get some lovely presents from friends, of whom she had many.
 A half hour later Emma passed Bob his hair, she said:
 T know what I'm going to give Mother. Wouldn't you like me to suggest something for you?' { No. l have decided on my gift already, and it's a sumner. Wouldn't you like to know what it is, smarty ?" ] At that moment Laura joined them and she said that she knew that none of them could possibly have thought of anything half so nice as the one that she was going to give, but that no power on earth would make her divulge the secret, and then all three ran away in a hurry for fear that it

were all hard up, and that they all felt their presents to her were not nice enough, so they had taken ad- vantage of the New Years Day to make amends With that each one handed her box and each wished her a very happy year.
 Mother was greatly surprised. and thanked her children heartily for their good intentions. Then she un- wrapped Laura's present first and gave an exclamation of surprise and pleasure, for there in an oblong box, nestled two lovely hat pins.
 T knew you needed them" said Laura, pleased with herself and with her mothers delight, but she did not notice how Emma and Bob gasped.
 This is my gift said Emma, 'but

It must have dropped out of my purse when I was trying to close it. Have you seen it, Mister?" And she looked up appealingiy at the street vendor.
 The vendor-who wasn't a bad fel- low at heart-came out from behind his box and helped her look. NO, Missy" he said, q aint seen no dime. Maybe you ain't lost nothing-look in yer pocketbook an make sure T. T." He stopped short and looked searchingly at Patsy. Hey, you rat, ? he continued, you ain't seen nothin'

 Christmas present to Mother.
 said Laura, after that great day,
 especially as she and Father stretched point and gave us so much."
 Same here! But how can we make it up at this late date?" asked Bob, to whom the remark was addressed.
 Then Emma chimed in: Lets each give Mother real present for a New Years gift, but keep it quiet until that day comes."
 Good idea," said Bob, "but what?" Shall we ask her?' said Laura, but she was sQuelched so hard by the

 The little girl and her brother moved slowly away, she trying to hold the two packages under her arm and at the same time close her purse.
 Suddenly Patsy had an idea. Now there was nothing bashful about Patsy. With him, to think was to act. "Say!" he exclaimed, touching the little girl on the elbow "wouldje min lending me one of them Dancin' Men fer erbout CT hour? Hones' I'll

 You bet I am, especially giants. At least I would be if they existed now" But they do," quietly said Miss Smith.
 Jack grinned dubiously.
 Indeed they do. Big ugly giants,

would pop out before they knew what was happening.
 The next few days excitement ran high, and Mother would surely have suspected something hadn't Uncle Nick arrived from the West and taken most of her attention
 On New Years Day Emma, Bob and Laura met in the hall outside Mothers room with their presents in their hands, but so eager were they to be secretive to the end that each one instinctively concealed their pres ent.
 Who's going to make the presen- tation speech?" asked Bob.
 You. of course," said Emma, and Laura shook her head in approval.
 To a knock at the door Mother said: Come in," and in trooped the three.
 Bob advanced, and in a neat speech explained that before Christmas they

 Two hat pins were inside the pack age.

 Bob hung back.
 Now open Bob's," said Laura She did so. and To! his also was a lovely hat pin.
 TT thought heard you say the other day that hat pin was one of the few things that you did not get for Christmas, so I bought you this
 Mother laughed very heartily and there was nothing left for the three to do but to join in. At any rate their presents had point to them, and Mother was pleased.

Prevent Hog Cholera,

The B. A. Thomas Hog Powder
has a record of 95 per cent cures of
Hog Cholera. If you feed your hogs
as directed, you need never fear hog
cholera nor any other hog disease.
And the directions are very simple,
just about what you are doing, plus
few cents worth of B. A. Thomas
Hog Powder in the feed twice week.
Usually, though, Cholera gets in
before we know it. Then it requires
close attention to each hog-each hog
must be dosed-and if you will dose
them as directed, you will save better
than 80 per cent. II you don't, the
B. A. Thomas medicine costs you
nothing. We-not some distant man.
ufacturer-pay your money back.

Two Producers Brought In.

There was considerable excitement
in the Calcasieu oil fields Monday
over the development of two flowing
wells.
The Victory company brought in a
3,OOO-barrel producer on the billiard
tract in the Edgerly field.
The Gulf Coast Oil company Sc
cured a 3,5OO-barrel flow from a we'll
on the "Big Ten" tract in the south
part of the Vinton field.
Reports from both wells state that
they are yielding pure oil and are
gliding up to the initial flow.
