for a while, they changed about,
Janey carrying the books and Jack
putting them in the box.
By eleven o'clock they had filled
five box, and were asking about
luncheon. Goodness ME, how hungry
they were!
What" said Mamma with a laugh.
Are Mothers little helpers tired and
hungry already? Goodness me, it's
a whole hour until lunch and then I'm
afraid Wen have to eat at the kitchen
table-and there won't be much to
eat either. When you're packing, you
know, you haven't time to eat"
But finally luncheon was ready
and the two children fairly devoured
the sardines and crackers and cheese
and cold ham and cake.
Then, somehow, they began to feel
sleepy. And, standing by the big box
they were trying to fill they became
drowsy.
Lets rest for a while" suggested
Janey.
yes indeed" Jack agreed eager
". Wen sit right down here on
the floor"
Twenty minutes later Mamma came
into the room and found both her lit
tie helpers sound asleep. with theii
backs propped up against the box
And, of course. she hadn't the heart
to waken them, for they had really
helped a whole lot, you know, and
they deserved the rest.

Palm SUNDAY -

TF you walk on the street today you
will see very many persons either
\ carrying pieces of palm, or wear
ing strips OF palm-leaf pinned in the
shape of a cross, in some conspicuous
place on their clothing. If you were
TO ask them where they got the palm
they would tell you in church" and
if YOU were to ask them WHY" they
would answer To-day is Palm Sun
day and all Catholic churches observe
the holy day with great ceremony"
They would add 1t is in commemora-
ton of the entrance of Christ into
Jerusalem some two thousand years
ago"
The Feast of Palms was observed
as early as the fifth century, but the
present form Of the observance of
Palm Sunday, with its profuse. palm
decorations, its professions, antiphons
and special prayers, dates back 20 the

soon show you that it's nothing but
the wind"
Her little hands trembled as she
lighted the candle on the night-table
beside the bed and her knees were so
wobbly that she felt they would give
way under her at any moment But
she did not change her mind and jump
back into bed and pull the covers up
over her head as she wanted SO much,
oh so much. to do.
Holding the candle In front of her.
she slowly made her way across the
room, through the door and out into
the hall. How ghostly everything
looked! And how creepy and cold
she felt.
Scratch scratch scratch went h e
noise again at the end of the han.
Helen stopped. She knew that
couldn't be the wind. 1t must be
something-somethi live making
that noise.
who's that?" she called in what
she meant to be a very firm, cOUra-
reous tone. IF you-you're bur
glar you'd better go right away from
here before my Papa comes home
and"
Scratch scratch-scra This time
more loudly than ever.
Helen almost lost her courage. She
took one step forward and was trying
to take another when suddenly. from
around the bend in the hall in front
of her-SOMETHING DASHED OUT
STRAIGHT TOWARD HER!
The candle wobbled in her hand and
she started back, clutching at her
throat and trying TO scream.
Just as she felt herself beginning to
fall. she recognized that SOME
THING.
For it parked!
And it was small and white and
1t was Billy.
Oh. how relieved she was. She
lust grabbed Billy up in her arms and
| Rugged him-she was so glad TO sec
him, Presently she remembered Mary

and called out to her that it was only
Billy. So Mary wriggled out of bed
and came running down the hall.
Then Helen thought OF Billy You
bad doggie." she said. Aren't you
ashamed to scare US this way? How
did you ever get out OF your closet
and out of the ROOM"
Billy ran on ahead of them down
the hall. And when he came 10 the
door of the room he began to scratch
scratch-sc scratch on it with front paw.
Helen lighted the light and put him
back on his pillow, making sure this
time that he couldn't get out of the
closet. Then, two much relieved lit
tie girls, they went back to bed.
The next day Papa said that Helen
and Priscilla must have thought they
had closed the door TO the room tight
" but had not, and then the wind had
blown it open and Billy had gotten
out into the hall; and then. perhaps.
that same misChievous wind had
blown the door fast shut again-lcav-
ing Billy out in the cold hall. Nat
Urally, after a while Billy must have
thought of his snug warm blanket
and pillow and wanted to get back in
again.
But. no matter how it had hap
pened, Helen and Mary were very glad
that--well, Just Suppose it had been
real, live burglar.

way. way after midnight for every
thing was so still and dark.
Now. as Helen sat shivering in bed,
with Mary clinging to her, she thought
OF how she had been a very excellent
Mamma all evening; and now-even
though she was almost as frightened
as Mary-she must not fail. So, pre-
tending to be not in the least alarmed
she laughed softly and said: IT'S
nothing but the wind, Mary. You go
on back to sleep-really it's not-a-
a.
But she did not finish her sentence,
for scratch-scratch-sc scratch came the
noise again, even more loudly than
before.
"Oh-o-o-oo!" Mary was crying now.
Helen hesitated a minute and then
made up her mind. I'm going to
light my candle and see what that Is,
Mary" she said with determination.

she's laid her eggs in it. I'm going TO
climb up and see. I need some Easter
eggs"

Bert needed his cousin, and the two
continued their play. but Bert wasn't
so easily put off. No sooner did his
cousin take her leave than he was
again out in the garden, and before
you could say Jack Robinson" he
was up the tree taking four tiny eggs
out of BRIDES nest. He ran 10 his

Child! Child! How could you do
anything so thoughtless 2"
Mother, | did not know 1t was
wrong to take these eggs answered
Bert. Il didn't hurt any one, did II?
1T has hurt me to think my little
bow could be so thoughtless about the
happiness OF one of Gods creatures.
These eggs mean more to the moihef-

I'm afraid she didn't love me very
much this morning when l took your
treasures"
of course not, for she knew what
those eggs meant to me. See here"
continued the bird. fitting the nest so
where he lay.
The child sazed and saw the shells
of four tiny eggs break. and out
peeped four cute featherless birds.
"Oh. you dear baby birds! Where
did you come from?" he exclaimed.
PIX. PIX" answered one. Il came
from the speckled egg you ld--in

How would you like some one to

"Chirp. Chirp!" sang the fourth.

Bert was ready to cry by this time.
He stammered: I'm aw-aWfully sor-

Mamma looked at the two children
for a moment. Perhaps I will" she
replied presently, If I can find some
thing they can do"

enthusiasm. why not let them dust
the pictures after I have taken them
down from the wall tomorrow night?
And then-then, too-they might

books tomorrow! Now I'll bring
several OF the big boxes up from the
. cellar tomorrow morning and I'll
show them how to line them with
paper and put the books in, with wads
of paper here and there to keep the
books from rubbing against each
other. How about that, youngsters
Would you like TO pack books"
OF course they would. of course.
What jolly good fun it would be!
Really, they were almost as excited as
though it were going to be a regular
party. And it was quite while after
each of them had been tucked into
his snug little bed that they were
able to so to sleep.
Bright and early the next morning
the household was awake, for this
was the day on which all the packing
was TO be done so that the moving
men could come the following morn
ing and find everything all ready fol-
them to pick up and carry away &c
the new home.
After a hurried breakfast Paps
took one of the smaller boxes ant
showed them how to place thick news
papers around the inside of it; ant
how TO put the books in so that the,

HE NOISE IN THE FRONT HALL

which Mamma had discarded; and on
top of this came Billy's pillow, a large,
soft one that Billy knew for his very
own.
He curled up upon it and then Helen
and Priscilla placed his nice soft top
blanket, all trimmed with blue rib
bon and bows. over him and set the
door to the closet ajar, as usual, prop
ping it open a few inches with a
chair That done, they turned out the
light and left the room, closing the
door behind. In few minutes Helen
had undressed and was in bed beside
Mary, already asleep, and Priscilla
turned out the light and went to her
own room.
1t was half-past eight o'clock when
the two little maids had gone to bed;
but what time 1t was when Mary was
awakened by the scratching noise in
the front hall, neither OF them knew.
1t seemed. though. that it must be

- ELEM. Helen. Wake up"
~ whispered little Mary, nudging
lily beside her.
Helen! Please wake up-pul-
lease" she whispered again, her quiv-
ering little mouth close to her sis
ter's ear.
Hum NM" Helen answered
sleepily. Instantly Mary's hand closed
over her mouth TO deaden the sound.
Naturally this made 1t difficult for
Helen to breath and she awoke with a
start.
"Sh-sh-sh!" cautioned Mary. Don't
make a sound. Listen-you hear
that? III think there's a burg
burglar in the house,
BY this time, you may be sure,
Helen was wide awake. She listened.
From the front hall came peculiar
scratching noise. 1t was most terri
flying.
ooh, Mary" gasped the older girl.
"Oh, Helen." breathed Mary. And
they clutched each other tightly,
trembling and shaking, their little
eyes wide with fright
Presently Helen began to remember
to remember that she was really
Mamma for that night, at least so far
as Mary was concerned. For both
Mamma and Papa had gone to spend
the night with Aunt Rachel, who was
very, very i'll, thus leaving the TWO
little girls alone in the house except
for Priscilla, the cook, who slept in a
room on the same floor with them
but way in the back of the house
And so far, Helen had played
Mamma" very well indeed At dinner
she had sat in Mammals seat and
acted very dignifed and proper as
Priscilla had served them. And. once.
she had corrected Mary about the
careless way in which she was holding
her fork
Then after dinner she had taken
Billy, their little poodle. out for a
Walk-a thing Papa usually did. She
helped Mary with her arithmetic and
studied her own lessons for the next
day at school. And when bedtime
came she stopped studying on the
minute and, with Priscilla helping, un-
dressed Mary and put her to bed.
Then she and Priscilla picked I'D
Billy and carried him to the closet
in Mammals room where he always
slept. Now Billy was indeed a spoiled
little doggie. He had, first of all, a
thick warm blanket which Papa had
formerly used to cover the engine of
his automobile; this was spread on the
floor of the closet. On top of it was
placed another blanket, an old one

whatever with their work.
That's fine. children" she said
I'm quite certain your Papa couldn't
have done better"
The second box. somehow. didn't
fill up so rapidly. First of all, Janey
developed an awful pain in her back
from STOPPING over and picking up
the books from the floor. And Jack
got mighty tired of lifting them from
their cases and carrying them all the
way across the room to Janey. So,

IN THE MIDDLE AGES.

In the Middle Ages plague spread
over Central Europe and many, many
persons died from it. The first symp-
tom was sneezing. AS soon as one
person heard another sneeze he would
quickly say to him a phrase. which
translated meant May God Bless
You" In most European countries,
In fact here in our own, today.
sneeze is usually greeted with some
such blessing, while the sneeze means
nothing more serious than slight
cold in the head.

bird he had almost robbed of her
eggs.
"Oh, sparrow, are you very angry at
me?" cried the boy. Il did not know
you loved your eggs so much, or
else"
Does not your mother love you?"
asked the bird.
