the Evening Fairies-all Of them were
included, and they made great prepara.
tions over the way they should go.
"In the first place they wore lovely
dresses of green seaweed which were
really beautiful, and they put on their
water wings of green too, to help them
when they got tired swimming. The
Fairy Queen wore chain of very fine
sea shells which once upon time old
Mr. Pickerel had sent her. They had
been given to him by one of his rela.
tions who lived in the sea, for of
course Mr.. Pickerels home is always
in fresh water-such as lake or n
river or a stream.
This Swimming Party was given in
a lake, and Mr.. Pickerel was the host,
so you can well guess how tiattered
he was when he saw the Fairy Queen
wearing the present he had once given
her.
1.-THE Fairies all arrived in their
boats made Of glass through which
they could see right down to the
bottom of the lake, which was very
deep. The Mermaid Fairies and the
Fishes were all Swimming around
waiting for them, and when they came
all the Fishes fins wiggled with pleas.
ure and the Mermaids whisked about
their beautiful hair with excitement.
"Splash, splash!' came from Mr.
Pickerel, which meant delighted tc
see you
''Then Mrs. Pickerel splashed too
and after that the little Pickerels
splashed for all they were WORTH
and so on until every single Fish had
given welcome to the Fairies.
"The Fairies sailed about in their
boat which went under the water as
well as on top. and then every little
while they would get out from one OF
their glass port holes and swim
around with great glee.
"'Now for the races. shouted Mr.
Pickerel. When l say one. two, three
go, remember what it means. I vii
give three small splaShes with my tai
and then l will jump away, way vi
and come down with terrific splash
which will mean CO.
"All the Fairies got ready for tn,
big Swimming race, and the little
Fishes all swan around in circles tt
cheer them along, for of course the
Fishes didn't go in the race. Tia,
would hardly have been fair!
"And when Mr.. Pickerel said, Go,
or made the terrific splash all the
Fairies jumped and it was severa
minutes bpfore any Of them actually

Pail Keeps Out Dirt.

loose dust can be easily brushed on
with the hands before milking. Do
not allow anyone to milk wet, as this
is a filthy practice.
The cows keep unsoiled on grass in
a night pasture, while if they are kept
in dry barnyard the loose, ry
manure will stick to their udders and
bodies and drop into the pail If kept
in the barnyard in rainy weather it is
almost impossible to milk them with
out first washing their udders.
A covered pail closed about two
thirds with hood, will keep out at
least rs per cent of the dirt. These
pals are just as convenient to use as
the ordinary ones, and cost little
more.
A strainer will not take out the
fine sediment in milk, but is useful for
taking out hair and other large for
eign stuff and is good for detecting
the dirty mixer. One farmer uses a
strainer made from an ordinary IA
quart tin dishpan. A five-inch hole is
cut in the center of the bottom. A
ring two inches wide and of the same
diameter as the hole is soldered on,
over which another rings slips to hold
the strainer cloth. Huck toweling
makes very good strainer cloth.

FEW PRACTICAL DAIRY HINTS
Pure Food Laws Won't Worry If Only
Clean, Wholesome Products Are
Sent to the Markets.

When counting the by-products OF
the dairy, do not forget the skim milk
allowed to clabber, of which the de.
licious Dutch or cottage cheese is
made. When not all is needed on the
home table, it can readily be disposed
Of at good prices.
Send out only clean, wholesome food
have no worry for you.
Don't feed lice, get rid OF them. II
the stock has been cleanly kept, there
will be no lice to get rid Of. Very
seldom is COW or calf lousy when in
good condition. Keep their stalls and
premises clean. give wholesome feed
and enough Of 1t. and the cows will not
raise lice.
A little corn or bran will not hurt
the cows and will save many steps OF
getting up the cows to milk. Don't
forget the salt at the regular time
Grass requires more salt than did the
dry feed of winter.
Feed the calves enough to have them
do well. Allow them the run of a
grassy, shaded lot, and unless sup
piled naturally with water, be sure to
keep some before them.
Too rich feed may give the young
calf Indigestion. Guard against this
as after once becoming out of fix, it is
much harder to regulate. Keep them
well and keep them growing. This is
true of all young stock, the only way
to make profit of it is to keep it
growing.

Monkeyino With the Universe.

1t has been reliably reported that
two New England men are about to
startle the world with an entirely new
power supply. One of these men is
said to be consulting mechanical en-
glneer, the other an astronomer, both
in very good standing. The story is
that these two men have gone so far
in the realm of infinitive formula that
they have been able to develop n meth
cd that will enable them to stop the
earth at will for 1-32 of n second of
time and to bottle up the energy neces-
sary to stop the earth in its product
SO created and sell it commercially to
the world. 1t is to be hoped that be-
fore the plan is actually put into COM
mission two other men of equal abil-
tiles will be found who will be willing
to cOllaborate with them to the end
that the earth can be started prompt
ly in its revolutions after it is once
stopped. otherwise there will be pain
ful absence of market for this novel

Service Makes Boy Scouts Healthy

People who deride or are concerned
at the employment of Boy Scouts in
the duty Of coast watching will be en-
lightened by the observations of Doc
tor Aldous, chief commissioner for
Portsmouth, who found sickness Is a
rare thing among them and wishes
that more Scouts could be put on this
duty, which is making such big, healthy
lads Of them. He enumerates several
cases of boys of fourteen who have
gained materially in weight and chest
measurement in three months or less,
and the zeal they display is surprising
when 1t is considered what great
change it must be for town boys to
be dropped on bleak and lonely part
