MARKET BASKETS.
Wartime Measures About Deliveries of

fruit in her basket without wrapping.
What! You would save ME a cent?"
he exclaimed.
Some grocers will ask you if they
shall deliver your purchases, which
may number half dozen or more, but
they will not let you have big bag to
take them home in. You ask, THE big
bag costs less than delivery, does it
notT Yes. but we have 10 pay for
the delivery anyway" Not willing to
drop the subject, you say, you ought
to charge everybody 5 cents for each
delivery" The grocer replies: But
that would not pay for what it costs
us. Our wagons cost us $3.50 q month"
OF course the grocer adds this cost to
our foods, and he allows a safe mar
gin. Those who are willing to carry
goods home pay equally with those who
do not. Customers could work change

How much more sensible it is to use
these than TO buy paper at present
prices, which is used but once! We
cannot expect market development to
be so one sided thing as most of us
have allowed 1t to be to the great ex-
pense Of our pocketbooks. We have
gone to silly lengths in the free de-

WOULDN'T MARCH.

I hope you will always take an In
terest in the marching. Little Tommy,
q boy have heard about, did not care
to march. He was fat and would
rather sit still than run about.
Tommy's mother had told the teach
er that he must take part IN the march
ing or any exercises that might take
some of the extra fat of his lazy bones.
SO the teacher tried her best to get
Tommy interested in marching. He
was a new boy in her class.
But one morning when Tommy had
missed a good many words in spelling
and had not had the right answer to
many of his arithmetic questions he
was bit sulky. Instead Of blaming
the mistakes on his own carelessness
he was vexed with the teacher and
cross with the children who had done
their work right 1t was very silly OF
Tommy.
And when the teacher threw up the
windows and said, Now the class will
stand up, ready for the march," Tom
my planted his feet stubbornly on the
floor and settled back in his seat.
The teacher looked surprised when
Tommy did not rise with the others.
She said: Tommy, please rise. You
know we are going to march now"
But Tommy growled, II don't want
to march,"
, The little girl at the piano began
playing the march. The other children
stepped briskly around the room, and
when the last child passed Tommy's
desk the teacher was behind him. She
whisked Tommy out Of his seat and,
with her hands upon his shoulders,
pushed him into place and walked him
around the room with the rest Of the
children.
At first Tommy was too taken back
to object, but when he found himself
being marched around the room against
his will he squirmed and struggled SO
much that the rest Of the children
who had been trying to keep sober
burst out laughing.
Don't you think you could march by
yourself nowT whispered the teacher,
and Tommy murmured, YES"
With his eyes on the ground he
tramped briskly after the other chill
dren, and from that day to this the
teacher has had no trouble in getting
Tommy to join in the marching.

accessories from apparently nothing
save a few scraps of material and a
yard or two Of lace. One Of the most
fascinating little negligees was made

unusually large supply Of handker-
chiefs. Four of these bits of linen were

an edging was run around the whole

neck and under the arms, and the re-
suit was a cunning little negligee.
