Nov. Biddy Topknot,7' we heard
him say,
Easter will be here soon;
A dozen eggs, at least, you must
lay
By tomarrow afternoon;
Red ones, Biddy the incest kind
Speckled, and striped and spotted;

But i'm spite of feeding and coax
ing, too,
His biddy would only Cay,
Instead of red and yellow and blue,
Just one white egg a day.
And Harrys patience was sorely
tried,
But he waited and watched the
And stroked his biddy, and softly
sighed,
81 fink she will do her best"
On Easter morning, wasn't it fun
To look at him through crack
He went to the nest as he'd often
done,
BUT soon came caperinng back
With his apron full of Easter eggs,
Striped and specific and gay;
The topknot hddy with yellow tiegs
Was petted and praised that day.
He told mama just how it befells
She listened again and again;
Twas such pleasure to hear hin
dwell
On the skill OF his wonderful
And when he had gone to share

With Susie and Katie and Ned,
His mama smiled and looked ever 81

But never a word she said.

SO, when mama had gone grand

The bees were in the orchard,
too, and only little way from the
apple tree under which Hepsy liked
TO Sit because the branches hung so
low, shutting you in just like a

Hepsy sat down and opened the
bright colored pieces, but Baby

Rice is one of the few raticiles
of diet that has not raised in, price
and as it is wholesome as well as
economical it is wise to use much
rice i'm our bill of fare. The youths
Companion has given several fully
tested recipes for preparing it from
which We CLEAN the following.
1.-The foundation of aSG proper
rice cooking is boiled rice, and this
must be prepared right.
First wash the rice in three or
more waters. Slowly add one cup of
washed rice to two quarts of vigor-
ously boiling water. Add one table
spoon of salt and boil hard twenty
five minutes. Drain it in colander,
rince with cold water and steam it
in the oven five minutes.

TEDDY'S GARDEN.

Asst spring Teddy was as busy
IL as a bee helping grandpa
make his garden.
He helped grandma, too, as she
sorted over the little packages of
seed for the planting, and he ask
ed good many questions while
they were about it.
What are these, grandma" he
asked, these funny black ones.
Grandma put on her glasses. May
be Teddy bothered her more than
he helped, but she wouldn't have
said so for anything.
Those are watermelon Seed she
answered. We'll plant them and
raise some melons"
Soon after Teddy came to another
package he didn't know about The
seed were not like any of the
others.
what are these he cried, hold
ing out the package.
why" said grandma, after she
had looked a minute, that is some
of your Aunt Ellen's canary-bird
seed. | don't know how it came
in here, I'm sure, but | guess we
won't plant any of it,
Grandma laughe6 but Teddy look
ed down seriously at the shiny
seeds. He thought of Robbie Gray's
pretty yellow canary, and his eyes
began to sparkle.
MAY may | have 'em grand
MAJ" he asked eagerly
Il don't care said grandma and
she thought no more about it.
Grandma put some of the packages
in a pan and told Teddy to carry
them out to the garden and give
them to grandpa
AT five O'clock when grandma
came in to her supper she called
Teddy.
What has my little man been
UP to all this afternoon" she ask
ed, as they sat at supper. You
mustn't work too hard dear

WHAT BECAME OF A LIE

WHAT BECAME OF A LIE.
First, somebody told it,
Then the room wouldn't hold it,
So the busy tongues rolled it,
Till they got it outside;
When the crowd came across it,
And never once lost it
But tossed it and tossed it,
Till it grew long and wide.
From very small lie, sir,
1t grew deep and high, sir,
Till it reached to the sky, sir;
And frightened the moon;
For she hid her sweet face, sir,
In a veil OF cloud-lace, sir,
At the dreadful disgrace, sir,
That happened at noon.
This lie brought forth others,
Dark sisters and brotheers,
And fathers and mothers
A terrible crew;
And while headlong they hurried
The people they Hurried,
And troubled and worried,
AS lies always do.
And so, evil BODIED
This monstrous lie goaded,
Till at last it exploded
In smoke and in shame;
When from mud and from mire
The pieces flew higher,
And hit the sad liar,
And killed his good name.

centuries to recover. They became
divided by internal strife and were
soon conquered by Char s the Great
That great imperial ruler forced
them to adopt Christianity in place
of their Pagan religion which they
had brought from Asia.
They worshiped out doors under
trees and led by the head of the
families. When they commenced to
build churches they adopted the
Gothic style instead of the Roman
style OF architecture which suggested
the arching limbs of great trees,
OF the forest
Even in the United States today
we adopt this same Gothic Arch for
most of our churches,-but how
many people know what its origin
was. :.
Just as in England and other
countries where Christianity had
to displace am ancient pagan re-
oms and holy days which could not
be got rid of by the religious Lead
ers were readopted into the new ue-
ligion. Thus in Germany we find
the popular belief in FAIRIES ,imps and
many other supernatural beings re-
main and even now when you walk
- fnr of
that it is peopled by all such strange
! creatures.
The early Germans made demigods
of the military leaders just as the
modern ones have. The reason for
! this was the same then as now;
they looked upon their leaders as
their saviors and on the soldiers as
their protectors. The modern German
leaders have worked this fee ing for
all it is worth and thus we see
the German people making untold
sacrifices for their army. Out of
/ this apothesis of the so idier grew
an abiding faith in the divine right
of kings. Divine powers and virtues
were attributed by the admiring
people to the rulers and alter the
rulers assumed those powers and
virtues as a matter of course. Grad
ualy the idea was developed that
| the King represented God and
ruled as his vicar and could do
no wrong. So.
| This is an important thing to bear
in mind in ana izing the German
character We find this divine
/ right idea in the whole German
thought beth at home and in this
Country.
Thus the German Americans fully
believe what the Kaiser says even
though he knows it isn't so. This

Early in the tenth century the
Franlish power waned and Germany
which fer some time had been a
part OF France revolted and began
to assert herself.
1 Duke Henry of saxony as leader
of the German tribes seized Lorraine
from France. That province has
passed back and forth between
France and Germany and has been
, a bone of Contention fer thousand
years, and will be demanded back
again if the allies win the present
war. Henry also extended the Ger
man domain by conquerirg parts of
Bohemia Hungary, Denmark and
other border lands. Henry was sue

tended the German conquest to

What do you mean?" asked
grandma; and then, all in minute
she knew.
She looked across the table at

hide the twinkle which came to
their eyes, though they tried, for
they knew Teddy did not like to
be laughted at.
When supper was over and grand
pa had gone out to do the chores.
she took Teddy on her lap. Dear
child" she said, Il did not mean
that you could raise canaries from
the seed. 1t was what your Aunt
Ellen used to give her birds to
eat" ~,

his face in grandma's dress to hide

But she didn't say amy more, and
Teddy wondered what she meant.
The very next week, when grand
pa went to town with butter and
eggs, he brought back pretty
cage, with yellow canary in ii
which locked so much like Robbie
Gray's that YOU couldn't tell them

the little one wandered away. When
she did notice it she thought: Well
she can't get far away, and it
won't take me but just a minute
to sew this square
But it did. think it must
have taken her as many as twenty
minutes, because the stitches were all
lover and over, and very short at
that.
When Hepsy had finished it and
looked around no baby was to be
seen.
Mel, she called scrambling up
where are you, dear? Baby. Baby
Mel 90.
All at once she heard the soft
little voice, half frightened, hiatt
g'eeful, do way, bad flies; Do
way, tel %.
She ran toward the bee-hives, and
there there stood Baby Mel
close by them, with a cloud of
bees around her curly head and
sweaty lit e, face.
For an instant Hepsy was too
frightened to think what to do, for
she was desperately afraid OF the
bees but in minute she had
made up her mind.
Don't try to brush EN- off, baby
she cal ed starting brayely forward
Maybe they viii bite you if you
do"
Baby Mel understood. She came
stumbling through the grass toward
Hepsy, with the bees al around
her.
In another minute Hepsy had
caught her up and was running
away as fast as she could. A bee
stung her ON the cheek as she ran,
and hten another stung her on the
hand
And it hurt like every thing
she to ID mama when she came
soon after. But grandma put some
pnenmouia on the places, and l
didn't cry. Amt you glad they did
not sting the baby, mama?''
Yes said mama, "omy- and
then she stopped.
