CTS Sald one day, when her husband was extricating Solomon from a tight place in the poultry yard fence. "I begin to be afraid that having him so much on our minds and in our com- pany may affect our appetites for our Christmas dinner.
 As the holiday approached the whole yard began to look small for Solomon. Carrie Caruthers. coming in one day from a walk, complained that he had strenuously objected to making way for her on the walk. Really. mother, it makes me feel as if we oughtn't to eat him." she said, coloring a little. He seems too human"
 Dear me, child !" said Mrs. Caruth- CTS hurriedly. Don't mention that be- fore Johnnie"
 The next afternoon Johnnie came running into the house in great excite ment. 1.-The Leonard dog is chasing Solomon" he wept. "Muvver, come and make him go home!''
 Mrs. Caruthers looked out Solomon was certainly having perilous adven- ture. The Leonard dog was circling about him, making vicious charges. Nothing but the spreading of Solo, mons formidable wings and his harsh outcries saved him. "MyI what dreadful dog!" exclaimed Mrs. Caruth- CTS. hurrying to the rescue.
 There was ear-splitting squawking from the terrified goose
 "Muvver! Muvver!" cried Johnnie, bursting into heartrending walls.
 Mrs. Caruthers picked up a stick and made motion of throwing it. "Go home!" she commanded sternly.
 The dog spread his feet and shook his head. 'Bow-wow!' he returned impudently.
 She threw the stick. It seemed to be the only thing she could do.
 The Leonard dog whirled around in an anguish of pain and astonishment. Then, realizing that he had been worsted, he departed on three legs for his kennel.
 You hit him, muvver! You hit him p exulted Johnnie.
 The frightened goose sat hunched under a tree, his head buried in his back. Some Of the feathers were gone from his tail, and patches of fluffy down were blowing about the yard
 'Blest if I can see what there is about that goose to fascinate an en- tire family" said Mr. Caruthers, ap- bearing suddenly behind them. eff you don't look out, Lucy, you'll be re- fusing your favorite hip slice when Christmas comes."
 Hip slice! Solomon's hip slicel Mrs. Caruthers could scarcely restrain a shudder as she glanced at the heap of feathers huddled in corner. What cannibalistic vision! "Oh, please. Austin. don't speak of it !'' she begged Tell father what happened, dear"

SUBSTITUTE FOR ROYAL ARMS
Placing of Gap and Bells on English Paper Was the Origin of the Word "FooIscap."

Several explanations have been giv- en of the meaning of the word fools cap" as applied tc a certain class of paper. One of the explanations is that when Charles I of England found his revenue short. he granted certain priv ileges, amounting to monopolies, and among these was the manufacture of paper, the exclusive right to which was sold to certain parties, who grew rich and enriched the government at the expense of those who were obliged tO use the paper. At this time all English paper bore. in watermarks the royal arms. The parliament under Cromwell made jest of this law, and among other indignities to the mem ory of Charles it was ordered that the royal arms be removed from the paper and the fools cap and bells be substituted. These were in their turn removed when the Rump parliament was dismissed. but paper for the size nf the parliament's journal still bears the name of .foolscap."

 "Johnnie,' Mrs. Caruthers seized him so violently that the end of the preposterous assertion was shaken into inaudibility. It had been to her that Aunt Eunice had made the statement and her heart died within her when she heard it on Johnnie's lips. Well talk about it some other time. dear" she said, trying to smile down her af from ed sons ire and conscious that Carrie and Doctor Arnold were gazing at her in amazement. Don't you think we had better be getting Solomon's supper now?''
 It was an unlucky remark. Johnnie's face puckered. ''I don't want anybody to eat SoIomon,'' he reiterated mis- erahly.

 Don't worry" said MT. Caruthers in his cheerful tone. ''Ive changed my mind.

MICROBES HAVE LONG LIFE
Neither Time Nor Heat Seem to Have Much Effect, on Some Micro
 Organisms.

Eternal youth seems to have been accorded in full measure to some microbes. Before the French Academy of Science Prof. Yves Delage read a paper reporting discoveries by Doctor Gallipe, who is credited with finding in century-old paper organisms still living. According to this report, these organisms resisted heat of 24S degrees Fahrenheit.
 'Time no more than heat seems to have had effect on these little organ islns, as Doctor Gallipe has found liv- ing ones in paper of the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries" said Professor Delage. ''They are capable of cultiva- tion and of movement.
 More than that. Doctor Galfipe has found in fragments of paper of Chi nese manuscript dating before the age of printing micro-organisms still living and able to move and that multiplied under suitable methods of culture

The little face be was looking al contracted suddenly and painfully. It was the first time Johnnie had real ized that Christmas meant eating Solomon. Actually eating him He was filled with the most passionate repulsion. "l won't eat him Nobody's going to eat him won't let anybody eat him!" The whirlwind of defiance ended in a burst of tears.
 Mrs. Caruthers put her arm around her grievfng son. Nobody shall eat Solomon" she whispered.
 "Farver would.''
 Not when he knows how you feel about it. Don't cry any more about it. dear."
 In her absorption in Johnnie Mrs. Caruthers did not hear Doctor Arnold say to Carrie Caruthers: "Wouldn't it be kindness to he child to draw at tention from him? Carrie-giye me leave. won't you?'
 "Oh. if it's necessary for Johnnie's peace of mind suppose you may" said Carrie. blushing rosily.
 Say. Johnnie" said Doctor Arnold. "did you know that I'm thinking of carrying Carrie off to my house so that there'll be plenty of room for Solomon here?"
 Johnnie noticed that this remark seemed to strike his mother dumb. To him, personally. it did not seem an al- together objectionable arrangement, although he thought it very foolish for Doctor Arnold not to know that there was room enough for Solomon and Carrie to0 in that yreat .hnt1So sNar- rie ain't going off to your house to live" he said sternly. "I won't let her."
 "Oh. is that so?" said the doctor. ''I hardly know what to do about it, then, for I've asked her and she said she was willing to go.''
 Johnnie turned an unbelieving eye on his sister. It was shock when
