The "Wait-a-Minute' Boy.

By Ardyce Danielson. Aged IL Years,
Keene, Neb. Blue Side.
Tommy was blue-eyed, light
haired, fair.complexioned boy. He
had everything that boy could ever
want. There was only one fault with
Tommy and that was that when any
one told him to doIanything he al
ways would answer, wait a min
ute" His mother had told him that
some day he would be punished sfor
his habit.
One day his nurse called him and
said, Come, Tommy, we are going
over to see grandma" But, as usual,
Tommy replied, "Wait minute" His
minutes became hours.
Soon he saw his mother and ia
ther get into the automobile. Tommy
ran towards them, but his mother
said, "No, you must stay at home
with the nurse" Tommy began to
cry, but his nurse only said, THAT
is the punishment you get for saying
Wait a minute
Tommy replied, II will never say
Wait minute again" And he did
not.

TWELFTH EPISODE.

When Helen, Roy and Webb had
finished that night with the contract
between the Peacock Copper COM
pany and the Eastern railroad, Rose
dale would never have recognized it.
Instead of reading, to the Eastern
railroad, it ran to the Kay & W., Roy's
road and in place Of Rosedale's sig
nature, it bore that Of Roy Wilson.
But their counter conspiracy was
only begun; it was now necessary to
get Hogan to sign the contract and
to get it back to Desmond.
Burke has the original" said
Helen, looking over the revised dupli-
cate. Perhaps the chief of police
could help US out-give us man from
central station that could switch en-
vclopes on Burke"

On the last school day of last year,
the Lincoln school went on picnic
at Prospect park, one and half
miles west of town. We went out in
several trucks, taking our lunches with
US. When we arrived we played base
ball, volley ball and went wading in
the little pond.
Some Of the girls and boys ate their
lunches under the large pavilion. A
group Of girls and l ate our lunch
under some trees, because we thought
it was so hot in the pavilion. After
we had our lunch we braided clovers,
and made wreaths, neck laces. brace
let's, and rings. We also picked a
nose-gay Of buttercups, daisies, violets,
poppies, which were wild, and wild
roses.
When we started for home, we
found that we had some lunch left, so
we stayed to eat it. Some of the girls
had some money; so on our way home
we stopped down town and got some
popcorn and ice cream cones. When
| got home was very tired. Mamma
was glad to get the bouquet I picked

Coney Island.

When at Coney Island we went on
the "airship," which was something
like a May-pole. The ribbons you
hold onto and dance around with were
great iron chains. On the end of
each was big basket. This is what
we got into. Then it started. Whiz!
And around it went.
If you looked out of the basket you
could see the great city down below
you.
When we got off of that we went
in "The Windmill" We climbed into
little boats, and then we found our
selves suddenly in darkness. We
were in cave. There were great
giants heads, ghosts all in white,
water falls. a great black cat, big
windmill-in fact, all sorts of spooky
things. The cave was like this: Two
counters on each side and an aisle of
water. We sailed through with all
the different things on each side OF
us.
The ghosts had electric-lighted
eyes, honey hands and hideous
mouths. ! almost fancied saw them
move! l hid my face when | saw
them.
When we came out of that we
went OH, the scenic railway. We got
in little car, just like special cars
you take during picnic season, and sat
down. Soon we began to ascend
great hill made if iron and steel, with
tracks on it.
