quite likely that they will become the
carriers for the various salad vinegars
which rest on butler pantry shelves,
where they are handy to use for the diff
ferent salad dressings and marinades
that are concocted there for immediate
use. Or they may deliver their sour con-
tents in person. just bit too large for
olive oil. yet they might be used for that
purpose.
Silver or glass loving cups? It de-
ponds on their shape somewhat. Those
having wide, shallow bowls make at
tractive salad bowls. Tall ones can be
used for flowers. Deep, short ones can
be used for cracked ice. One to be used
for, that purpose has already had the
little claw added to one OF the handles
to hang the little ice tongs on.
Cordial bottles are suggested as
cologne receptacles for the dressing table
and their little glasses to match may be
donated to the nursery, where they will
be highly priced for wee tea party use.
As to the tiny cocktail forks-adorably
useless little trifies-they need not be
sold for old silver, but can be used in
the relish service. where stuffed olives
and eggs. rolled anchovies. stuffed mus
sells. deviled CLAIMS and broiled oysters
require the daintiest of handling.

~ ARNEY BARN OWL was a funny
* little fellow with his great. big eyes
IL with white, rims around them All
the folks around the barnyard claimed
his eyes became that way because he
cried so much he washed the color from
his feathers. The fact was, Barney
Barn Owl did cry a great deal, and all
because he was naughty. and his mama
had to scold Him so much.
Barney never knew what it was to
mind his mama. that is. he never paid
any attention to what she said until one
day Barney Barn Owl had an expert
ence that made him change his ways.
Now. Mama Barn Owl thought prowling
around during the night was enough for
any owl; but Barney wasn't satisfied
with the time given him.
One morning when he heard his mama
calling him. Barney Barn Owl hid be-
hind a barrel in the barn and didn't go
home. When he came out from his hid
ing place the sun was shining so bright
" Barney Barn Owl couldn't see where
he was going. and the first thing he
knew he stepped on to something, and
snap it went, and Barney Barn owl
found himself fastened up in a little
wire cage.
Try as hard as he could. Barney Barn
owl couldn't shake the thing down, and
the sun was so bright he couldn't see
the door. Barney began to cry very
softly He wished he had obeyed his
mama now that 1t was too late, SO he
cried and cried until he heard some one
laugh, and there. looking in between
the wires. Barney Barn Owl saw a little
boy.
Vow I've got you, you little theft
cried the boy. poking Barney Barn Owl
with a stick. You will steal into dad
dy's barn to eat his grain" And he
poked Barney Barn Owl so hard he
Tapped his wings and tried to get away.
