Give me the house where the toys are
strewn,
Where the dolls are asleep in the
chairs,
Where the building blocks and the toy
balloon,
And the soldiers guard the stair;
Let me sleep in the house where the
tiny cart
With it's horses rules the floor,
And the rest comes into my weary
heart,
For l am at home once more.
Give me the house with the toys about
With the battered old train of cars,
The box of paint and the books left out
And the ship with her broken spars;
Let me step in a house at the close of
day
That is Uttered with children's toys
And dwell once more in the haunts of
play
With the echoes of bygone noise.
Give me the house where the toys are
seen,
The house where the children romp,
And I'll happier be that mas has been
Meath the gilded dome of pomp.
Let me see the litter of bright-eyed
play
Strewn over the parlor floor,
And the joys l knew in far-off day
Will gladden. my heart once more.
Whoever has lived in a toy-strewn
home
Though feeble he be and gray.
Will yearn no matter how far he roam,
For the glorious disarray
OF the little home with its Uttered
floor
That was his in bygone days,
And his heart will throb as it throbbed
before,
When he rests where baby plays.

ANIMAL HABITS NOT CHANGED
Sheep Run to the Hills, Hogs Grunt 40
Signal, Dogs Fashion
Their Own Bed.

Sheep, when frightened. always run
to an elevation, because their ances-
tors originally came from the noun
tains. They always follow a leader.
because in the dangerous mountain
passes their ancestors had to 20 In
single file. Hogs grunt because their
feeding grounds were thick woods,
where they could not see one another,
and sound was necessary to keep them
together.
Dogs have n way Of turning around
several times before they lie down.
This looks VERY foolish now, hut when
they were wild things centuries ago,
they slept in the tall grass and turned
around several times to hollow out a
bed. md they have never outgrown
this habit, but to this late day they
will turn around on rug Just as II
they were in the tall grass.
Cats have, perhaps. the most traces
of old ancestral habits. Many times
they do have truce Of the lion or
tiger very near the surface. Their un.
certain temper, their purring and grow.
ling. their sudden bounds, their ten.
dency to scrntch, all come from the
