Father" is usually the person ap-

and therefore father speaks for the
mother and himself. In some cases
1t would be easier to speak to the

I would say. in reference to the case

was very disrespectful to the parents.
When asked to consult the mother, he

Here are the remainder of the batch
of recipes sent in the other day:
Cracker Bonbons

These are better than they sound.
Try putting a little soft, candy-like
fudge or pinoche ON tiny crackers and
see how good they are! Other small
crackers may be dipped in melted
sweet chocolate or any kind of
fondant.
In selecting crackers for prepara-
tion in any of the ways just sug-
gested, the housewife should give
especial attention to their size. Select
those small enough to be disposed of
at a single bite, or, at most, in two.
| There are many little round crackers
as we'll as tiny cubes, oblongs and
squares. With a little thought given
to details any woman with ingenuity
and the necessary time can concoct
all sorts of cracker novelties for her
table at the minimum of expense. Re
member always that these glorified
crackers must be as appealing to the
eye as to the taste

THE STORY OF UF-GUv UN-GER.

self where there is talking.
Uf-guy had become very much in
tercstcd by this time, and forgetting
that he was an unlimited listener he
stepped up higher on the ladder.
which brought him right in front of
the window.
The children saw something move
and all looked toward the window.
Scream after scream sounded. and out
of the room ran the children, shouting
as they went, "'rhe goblin man, the
goblin man. We saw him in tie VIM
dow"
1T was only shadow" said one of
the gentlemen. you should not have
blown out the light"
There he Is now screamed little
girl, pointing toward the window
where Uf-guy stood on the ladder.
quite unconscious that he had caused
all the commotion.
Uf-guy was not pleasant to look at,
and for a second even the grown-ups
We're startled. Then one of the gen.
tlemen came TO the window and
opened il.
WHO are you?" he asked Uf-guy,
'and where did you come FROM"
81 am Uf-guy Un-eer." replied the
dwarf. ''I came from the forest
why, it is the dwarf" said an
other gentleman. Let the poor fell
low come in"
Uf-guy did not need a second in
vitation. He hoped from the win
dow sill into the room and stood gaZ-
ing at the children who had gathered
around him, looking at the strange
guest with wonder in every feature.
| Uf-guy was given a good supper
and then he amused the children by
his curious antics. He danced about
on his queer short legs and stood or
his head and did many other things
which only a dwarf can do.
When the party was over and the
children started for home. Gf-guy
went out with them.
"Where are you going?" asked one
of the ladies.
Back to the forest" replied Uf.
guy.
"But you cannot reach there to-
night" replied the lady. stay here
tonight and in the morning you can
start early"
SO Uf-guy was given n blanket, and
! he rolled up in it and tried to sleep
but he was not used to a soft COW
ering or sleeping in a house, and he
was glad when it was morning and he
could start for his cave in the forest
The children still talk of Old Unson
the goblin man, and firmly believe he
appeared in answer to their call
(cfQ16)
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser., 1916-01-08

You may think from the title that
you are to hear about a mountain or
a very large man, but you are not;
this is the story of very little man.
Uf-guy Un-ger was a dwarf. He
lived in a cave in a forest which was
so thick with bushes and briars that
no one but uf-guy ever attempted to
enter it.
The forest in which Uf-guy lived
was in Norway. One morning, when
the sun was shining, he made his way
out of the forest, pushing aside the
bushes with his strong hands and
hopping over rocks like an animal.
Uf-guy made a long journey that
day, and it was night before he
reached the town for which he set
out.
The lights were shining from the
windows of the house, and all the
people were in holiday attire, and the
shops We're trimmed with eVergreens,
/ for it was Christmas eve.
Everyone seemed to be happy, ana
If Uf-guy had never seen anything
! like it before, he stood before the
shop windows and feasted his eyes ON
the good things to eat and the gay
decorations.
After while he came to a house
where ladder had been lett leanlne
against il by a carpenter or painter,
and Uf-guy climbed up on this, TO get
a better view of the tree.
The children in this home were nav
ing party and Uf-guy wanted TO get
nearer to the window. He got down
from the ladder and moved it closer,
hut by the time he had got up on IL
again the room was dark, and Of-guy
felt like crying, he was SO disap-
pointed.
/ But Just as he was about to gel
! down he heard someone say, NOV
| YOU must all sit very still and nol
speak q word while / am repeating
the verse"
BY this time Uf-guy's eyes had be,
come accustomed to the darkness ana
he could see the children sitting In a
circle on the floor, while one of thc
larger boys sat in the center, and VI
guy heard him say;
"Old Ole Unson. goblin man,
Come and catch us if you can;
Show yourself to us tonight
In this room without a light.
All was quiet for few seconds
after the boy stopped speaking, and
then one of the children said, oh, |

ever saw him?"

Buying an Engagement Ring

Dear Miss Doom:
VIII YOU kindly settle an argument
about buying an engagement ring?
y says that both parties should
be present when the purchase Is
made. b says that 1t is bad luck for
the prospective bride to witness the
purchase. M. Il. E.
According to custom the purchase
Is made by the gentleman and is pre-
sented to the girl, who has nothing
TO say about it until she received it.
In some cases the young lady is
present when the purchase is made,
but 1t is not considered good form
however. I have never heard of the
superstition attached to it and doubt
very much if it is an omen of i'll luck.
