For that little chap beside me with
the tousled shock of hair
That is always into trouble and his
mothers greatest care
Is the image of his daddy, in his
every act | see
The living, moving picture of the boy
! used to be.
People say that he's just like me an
guess it must be true
For he's simply doin' over all the
things l used to do.
You'll find him gayly swingin' from
the top branch of tree
Or tight-rope walkin' fence tops will
his two arms wavin' free
An he's never really happy till he's
wallowed in the dirt
An he keeps his mother busy SEWN
buttons on his shirt.
The women folks all wonder where he
gets his needless ways,
But | know that they are rooted in
my by-gone yesterdays
An l see in every action what his
mother cannot know
That he's simply Twin over all my
life of long ago,
An they say that ! should stop him
when he risks his precious pate
An change his willful nature, but
it's forty years too late.

DEMAND FOR HOLY PLACES
So Long as Religion Exists There
Must Be Spots Devoted by Men
to Veneration.

As long as religion exists men will
look for its holy places. If they do not
find its sanctuaries ready at hand in
the natural features of the country in
which they live, or If they are not pro-
vided with places consecrated by the
history of the past they win make
them for themselves in their churches
and their shrnes.
Men need some special place where
they can know that they are in the
Divine presence and can offer their
homage before his throne. The places
of mems yeneration are frequently inn
pressive and beautiful, but, on the
other hand they may be the barest
buildings. having nothing of grace or
beauty to please the eye. Yet the
meanest building becomes ablaZe with
Divine glory to those who have met
God within its walls. And where gen
Grafton after generation of men, each
in its turn, has bent in reverence to
worship, or to listen in faith to the
word of the most high in warning, en-
enlargement or comfort as they most
need they have dedicated holy places
with reverence due to the honor Of
God and the memory of his people

AFRAID OF ICE CREAM
French Children Taste New Dish
and Cry, ut Is Hot"
But Young France Soon Learns to Like
II and Hangs About American
Camps.

Paris,-Ice cream is new dish
TO the inhabitants of France.
Some Of the big city dwellers may
have had a passing acquaintance with
It, but the rural folk and those in the
villages saw their first ice cream made
in the American army camps.
Many of the permanent American
camps in the service of supplies have
made ice cream a regular feature, the
regimental canteens turning out the
frozen delicacy for several hundred
men.
The Introduction of ice cream to
the French peasant children has been
productive of much amusement to the
American troops, The youngsters thinl,
1t Is hot.
One of the men of an engineer regi-
ment took a mess kit full of ice cream
to n French farmhouse. One of the
small boys took a big teaspoonful. A
look of panied amazement came over
his face, and, emptying his mouth OF
the frozen cream, he ran screaming
10 the protection of his mothers
skirts crying: "Chaud Chaud !"
(Hot HotD
The other children who had watched
rather horror-stricken the fate of the
first became convinced that the ice
cream was some sort of white fire
and they would have nothing to do
with it. The mother had to eat vlrtu-
ally all of the cream in order to in
duce them that it was cold rather
than hot and that when not taken too
fast was good TO eat. Eventually, the
children ate the last of the dish. But
they partook of it gingerly, evidently
greatly mystiiied that anything which
first seemed hot then cold could be
good to eat.
But in time the kids got to liking
ice cream and they became as great q
nuisance around the camps asking for
Ice cream as they had been before
in seeking chewing gum.

The Ancient Quipu.

The quipu reached its most elaborate
form among the Peruvians, from whose
language the term 'quipu," meaning
"knOt," is borrowed. 1t consists of II
main cord, to which are fastened at
given distances thinner cords of diff
ferent colors, each cord being knotted
in divers ways for special purposes,
and each color having its own signiti-
canoe. Red strands stood for soldiers,
yellow for gold, white for silver, green
for corn, and so forth, while single
knot meant ten, two knots meant TWEEN
ty, double knots two hundred. Such
simple devices served manifold pur-
poses. Besides their convenience in
reckoning, they were used for keeping
the annals of the empire Of the lncas +;
for transmitting orders to outlying
provinces; for registering details of
the army.
