Emna,s Pets

My little friend, Emma Maynard. keeps a number of pet birds. She has a canary, parrot and two doves. The doves you must know, do not like to be alone. They are quite sad unless they have a companion. They are gentle, quiet birds and easily tanned.
 Emma has name for each one of her doves; Norma is one and the other Daisy. Emma feeds these birds twice a day.
 The other day the two doves left the place where they were kept, and it was long before Emma could find them. At last she found them in her fathers library They were seated on one of his large books. The sunshine streamed through the window and the sight was very pretty to see. You pretty birds!" said Emma. You dc not have to read big books to be wise
 In the dining room hangs the parrot in a cage. Emma had given the. par rot nalne-Bob. When the folks were eating dinner the. parrot would say ''Give me a cracker!o She kep1 on this way, talking every day unti ] finally the folks went away. Wher the clock would ring 12 the parro1 would know; but she missed her din | ner for a long while. She had some thing on her plate to eat, but did no' 1 like it.

Bob Sleds aud Hay Racks
BY MeLLIE gkEcE COOK

Grandmether looked es.t of the win dow at the heavily fallen snow. Its fine time for, bob sled ride" she said. When I was a girl we had sleighing parties all winter iong.''
 The girls thought over grand mothers suggestion and decided to give an sip-to-date, old-fashioacd sleighing party. First they went to the livery stable and hired big bob sleigh with seats along both sides. The livery man said they could have two teams of l.orses.
 The girls figured that by taxing each guest and securing a small donation from their parents they could meet eS- penses. Three of the girls mothers offered to furnish 'doughnuts, apples and cocoa.
 Everybody was warned to bundle up in the warrnest dress to be found. They all met at one p1acesand piled into the waiting sleigh. The harness was covered with sleigh els so the tingling of the bells and the happy songs of the girls attracted the atten- tion of everyone.
 They rode into the country and back, and just a minute before they were ali stiff with cold they were deposit cd, a. bevy4 of rosy checked girls, on Mahle Lane's doorstep. Mables mother received them and soon tt1awed them out with hot cocoa, fresh doughnuts, and juicy apples. The girls said that their sleigh ride was the best sport of the whole year.
 A HAY RACK RIDE
 Girls in warmer climates where there is no snow, will find it fun to rent a hay rack instead of bob sled. They all wear broad brimmed hats and gingham aprons to look like farmer cites, and one or two of the girls dress in oWeralls to play farmer The girls plan refreshments to suit the time and place. A wiener roast" is always fun, if arrangements can be made at some picnic for fire.
 A hay rack ride can be the source of much merriment-the amount of sport depending upon the ingenuity of the girls who lay the plans. Do not miss sleigh ride this winter, you girls in the North, andsdon't forget the fun of hay rack ride, you girls of the

A TRUE STORY.

f Bernice Bradley was watching a group of khaki-cIad girls marching along the street. They looked so neat and happy. and contented that Bernice felt envious as she turned to the can dy store near. A young lady across the street was watching her, and as Bernice came out of the store carry ing well filled bag she crossed over and accosted her.
 Why, Cousin CIara!" said Bernice. Where did you come from?' 1 From headquarters. was the an swer.
 Bernice inquired till she found that Clara was speaking. of the Girl Scout headquarters and she made an ap- pointment to go to her cousins house that evening to hear about that or gan1zation. BeFnice was the daugll- ter of a Wen-to-de merchant in a town of northern Illinois. His wife was toos busy with social affairs to look after Bernice, who consequently chose her own friends and occupied the time to suit herself, instead of go= ing to school Her cousin Clara kritsch, an active, healthy girl of 20. was one of two lieutenants of troop of Girl Scouts
 After supper Bernice went to her cousins house, and Clara led her to the library. where q fire was burning in the. fireplace, for it was chilly, though May had come.
 Now for a nice talk" said Clara, drawing up an armchair. ''Sit down, Bernice. and tell me why you were not at school today
 Bernice blushed as she replied, My teacher is too cross.''
 Clara adroitly changed the subject and said, You wanted to hear. about the Girl Scouts Well, the girls are put into patrols of eight girls each, and these girls elect a patrol leader and a secretary. The patrol leader chooses 3. girl from her group to be her corporal.
 What do the patrol> leaders do?9 asked Bernice
 T was just going to tell you. There Is also captain and as many lieuten- ants as is necessary to direct the troop. When the girls gather for a meeting the captain orders them to fall in, which means that each patrol must form a straight line. The patrol leaders must then inspect; that. is,

The SIX Umbrella.

Some time ago, little Henry was sitting on the step, thinking of what he wodld do. to make his mother a birthday present. when all at once a sudden thought came to his mind, he would go and ask for a job to pass the morning papers. s.
 He asked for the job, and he got it just as soon as he asked for it.
 His mothers birthday was to be in October and it was already the first week Of September, so he had to hur- ". He got 30 cents a day, so that made enough money to buy the pres eTft. .-.....
 The night before his mothers birth day he bought the present, and he hid it in his bedroom until morning. His mother called him to come down to breakfast, so he dressed up. washed his face and hands, and put on his clothes, and hurried down stairs with the present.
 What do you think the present was? It was a nice, red silk umbrella. ISoLA BLANCHARD. Age 13. Taftyilie

There are several of them, and away goes the, dog at his masters command. carrying them into the street. Seizing a mat by the corner with his mouth he beats it against the pavement until he is in such a cloud of dust that you can hardly see Towsef at all.
 If artyoTEe attempts to touch his work he will bark and growl.
 When he has finished his task Tow ser will carry the mats in and put them into their places-not exactly as they should be, perhaps; but each mat on the spot where it belongs. He then creeps up to his master who pats him on the head and gives him a piece of meat
