Where 1t Was Needed.

Nine-year-old Helen had a birthday
the other day. In the evening her
Aunt Mary and her rather elderly
"beau'' came out to the house to call.
After Aunt Mary had bestowed her
present on her small niece, she gave
her the licking" which is always a
part of a birthday ceremonial in this
family. After her niece had escaped
her grasp Aunt Mary called her to
come back. 81 gave you lick to grow
on" she said, "but forgot to give you
one to get married on. So come right
back and get it,
Helen still eluded capture. ooh,
Aunt Mary she called, "don't give it
to me. I have lots of time. You'd
better give it to Mr.. W" (the visit
ing cavalier).
