The Old Man

Once upon a time there was an
odd man named Charles.
This man was a miser. He had
plenty of money but would not
spend it.
Instead of buying his fuel he
would go out and pick the wood up
off of the street.
His room was very shabby, he
had an old stove that he got at a
sale for a dollar. He had a table
with barrels for the legs. Once
while he. was out picking up wood,
he saw little child coming toward
him crying.
First he thought he would let
him pass on by, but the little boy
came up and asked him to take
him home. He thought about it,
and thinking he might get some
money. he said, yes, he would take
him home. The little boy told him
his address so the man took him
there.
The boys parents were very glad
and took the man into their care
and seeing how shabby he was, or
dered him a new suit. Then they
hired a barber to shave him and
cut his hair. When all this was
done, he looked very good.
The people let him stay there
and the father gave him a place as
foreman in his shop.
The little boy got to calling him
grandpa which made him very glad.
Soon he got to be a partner in
the firm and was liked by every
body.-Kenneth Holtkamp.

WITHOUT MATCHES
By AdeIia Belle Beard

To forget or lose your matches,
or let them get wet accidentally,
will not be the calamity it might
prove if you always carry a piece
Of flint and a strong steel of some
kind in your pocket when you 60 on
a hike.
The use of flint and steel for
starting fire is only going back
several generations to the period
when We had no matches, and all
outdoor boys and girls, you among
them, should know how to light a
fire in this primitive fashion. Prac-
tice at home; practice until you can
make sure thing of it every time,
then you can rely Oh your skill
when when the occasion comes to
use it.
A piece of strong steel shaped
like the one shown in our illustras

tion is most convenient to use and
to carry. but the back of a knife
will answer if 1t must. The flint
should be large enough to hold cas-
lily, and the way to produce the
sparks is to strike the edge Of the
flint a quick, glancing downward
blow with the steel.
This part is soon mastered. The
trick is to catch the spark and keep
it alive. To do this you must use
dry, very dry finder. Hold your
flint so that the sparks will fall into
your small bunch of finder and
when a valume of smoke arises, fan
it with your hand and then gently
blow it into fame. Have ready
shredded Birch bark, or other
quickly lighted stuff. to use as a
match and with 1t catch your
fame Immediately and apply 1t to
your kindling.
1t is safest to carry finder with
you packed in a small tin box to
keep out dampness. You can make
this at home. Tear-do not cut
short strips OF old cotton cloth and
scorch it in the oven, then pull 1t
apart into small pieces. Try 1t and
see that it lights easily. Dry moss,
dry grass, dried willow catkins take
sparks readily; also the dried inner
bark of Cedar rubbed into fine
shreds.

/, the fight said: at is all well enough
to have little fight for fun, but
hate to Sc your dog killed, as he
maybe"
"Oh, don't you worry about my
dog. Leave all your worrying for
the goat"
While the men were talking OF
letting Billy Whiskers and the
bulldog fight the dog had been
pulling at the chain and straining
to get at the goat, while Billy
quietly walked around inspecting
things, chewing anything he could
find.
Wont fix that conceited dog"
said Billy to himself. So he al
lowed himself to be driven into
the back yard. Here the men
formed a circle with Billy in the
center; then the man unfastened
the chain from the dogs neck.
With a rush he went for the goat.
whe quickly stood on his hind
legs, lowering his head and met
the dogs onrush with his horns,
running one of them into his chest,
which sent the blood splitting out.
Then the dog tried to get behind
Billy for another charge, but Billy
wheeled and met him as before.
and no matter which way the dog
tried to approach him, Billy was
always there foremost with his
long, pointed horns sticking
straight out to meet him.
The dog was getting more and
more furious at each failure and
at last he made a blind plunge
at the goat, but, as before, Billy
was too quick for him, and this
time he sent the dog yelping back
to his master.
"Here! what do you mean by
shutting cur goat up?" they heard
someone say, and turning around
they saw one of the men from the
circus who had been sent out to
look for Billy, as 1t was nearly
time for the performance to be-
gin. .--
I'VE did not shut him up. He
walked, in of his own accord: but
you should have been here min
ute sooner and you would have
seen the prettiest fight you ever
saw in your life, between your goat
and the bulliest bulldog of the
town."
II am sorry I did not see it. but
perhaps we can have another
sometime"
Never" said the dogs owner,
very emphatically Il doubt if he
lives through this"
well. goodbye, boys; come and
see Billy Whiskers perform in the
circus this afternoon and you will
see as good performance as
fighting, and I'll give all passes
who bet on him this time.
Billy, would not have given
much for your skin when the ring
master got through with you if it
had not been for this fight; but
now think he will forgive you
for the butt you gave him this
morning. since you whipped Mr.
Pride's dog, for he hates Mr.. Pride
because he forbade him calling on
his daughter.
Next week Billy has an argu-
ment with a parrot

~ FRANCES TREoO MONTGOMERY

Wednesday, Billy was not tied up
and after wandering around the
circus and visiting the different
animals and stopping to chat with
Betty, he decided to watch his
chance and slip into town.
This was not hard for him to do
and he soon found himself on the
main street. At first he walked
quietly along. looking into the
windows, but presently he saw be-
fore him n well-known figure, that
Of the ring-master.
Now is my chance" thought
Billy, ito get even with him for
sl,ng mt ali those cuts win MS
whip. I'll just give him butt and
land him in the middle Of that
mud puddle, and | am going to
do 1t SO hard he will hear his spine
crack and guess he won't hit me
with his whip again very soon.
So Billy started quietly on a run,
going on his tiptoes so the ring
master would not hear him until
1t was too late to get out of the
way. Just as Billy got to him the
man raised his arm to doff his hat
to a pretty girl. and the next thing
he knew he was flying through the
air with his hat in his hand. Still
holding his arm extended, he land
ed in the deep puddle of muddy
water in the middle of the street,
while the young lady threw up her
hands and fled.
1t is needless to say that Billy
Immediately disappeared down q
side street. Here he ran into
livery stable where dog fight had
been going on in the back yard.
Two ferocious bull dogs had
fought SO wickedly that their jaws
had to be pried apart.
One of the dogs had chain
around it's neck and its owner was
going to lead 1t off when one Of
the livery men saw Billy and called
out:
wait minute. Mr. Pride. here's
q Billy goat I bet can lick your
dog. Let us turn them loose in
the yard and have another fight"
: why. man. what are you talking
about? My dog would make just
one grab at the goats throat and
kill him."
II am not SO sure of that" re-
piled the man, "but | am mighty
sure he will lick your dog if he is
the goat l think he is, for believe
he is the trained goat from the
circus"
Lets have a fight" said the
other men that were standing
around. ut will be great sport to
see the goat lick the dog that can
whip every other dog in town.
$50 you think the goat can lick
my dog, do you? will bet one or
all of you twenty. dollars that he,
