:. Why Never Raised Rabbits,

r When we came to the country to live I had a pair of rabbits given to me. intended to raise little ones to sell. The rabbits were kept in a corner of the yard that was fenced in by wire.
 One day when I went out to feed them I discovered that my mother rab- bit was gone. I hunted every part of the yard but did not find her hearing later that she had been stolen.
 The loss of my mother rabbit was great to me, but I decided to get an- other one; so one day I visited a chicken peddler, who had rabbits to sell. told him I would trade him a hen for rabbit which he agreed to do. When he brought me the rabbit was well pleased for it looked like my other one.
 - had the rabbits four months and was expecting sto have little ones, but was disappointed. the reason you will soon find out.
 One day my father coming in to the yard. said he. was going to find out why I couldn't raise rabbits: and or picking up the one I got from the peddier discovered it was a male rab- bit; this is why I never raised rabbits

PRECEDENT SENDS GREETINGS TO NEW JERSEY DEMOCRATS
Calls Upon Them to Commit Them selves to eisinterested Service For Humanity.

Newark, N. J., March 20-New Jer- sey democratic leaders assembled here tonight for a reorganization banquet were greeted by message from Pres ident Wilson as national head of the party. calling upon them to rise to the test of a new time when old party slogans have lost their signif1- canoe and to commit themselves to .disinterested service to humanity.
 In letter presented by Secretary Tdmllty, the president said the peces- sity for his staying "on the iob'' made it impossible for him to be present but it was clear that in the present posture of affairs in New Jersey he could not overlook his responsibility to point out what he believed to be the duty of the democrats of the state in a great, hour of crisis. He re- viewed briefly the record of the party while he served as governor, declaring that in every act of legislation I've cut a clear pathway of public service" and gave the people a government they could feel was their own, unhampered by special privilege.
 Grave Crisis in Life.
 "A dime of grave crisis has come in the life of the democratic party in New Jersey" the president wrote, "a time when its friends and supporters must face the facts of the situation if they would serve tbe cause of free govern ment in New Jersey.

A Good Lesson.

Last summer while visiting at my
 grandfathers farm my cousin Alice, a girl about my ags and myself had a
 great deal of fun; but On one occasion
 on which am about to write we were
 really frightened. Down the country road about mile from my grandfathers farm stood an old hut once a beautiful farm house which everyone said was haunted. One day my cousin Alice and myself
 walked down that way and curiosity led us, before we knew it, up to the weather beaten steps at the front oi the house.
 We thought we would like to look into the house so ventured to open the front door. As we opened 1t the tor hinge, which was eaten with rust, gave way and the door almost fell. Right at the door there were steps leading upstairs. I started to go uI and had almost reached the top when ny foot broke through the wood and down I went. giving my ankle terri ble wrench
 Alice came to my aid and we man. aged to free my foot. We both resolved that this was . good lesson for curious girls GERTRUDE PLATT, Age 12. Norwich.
