tugged and tugged, and at last freed myself. and there I was, in ths bright warm sunshine, but mighty damp and uncomfortable, and my wings were all, crumpled, and my legs so weak and wobbly that I could hardly stand. But as stood there trembling, and won dering what it all could mean, my wings dried out, and unfolded little by little, until I had four of the most beautiful wings in all the world. was so happy and proud that I didn't know what to do with myself, so crawled a few steps, and just waited to see what would happen next. In a few minutes I felt stronger, and gave my wings a gentle flap to see if they were really and truly wings, and I found that the motion had lifted me clear off my feet, and before I knew it, I was floating about in the air-a regular butterfly.
 I flew over where there were some beautiful things, that I afterwards learned were flowers, and as I was poking my tongue down in their dewy cups, something sweet touched it, and began to suck, and right then and there I had my first taste of honey. People talk about miracles, but if there was ever a more wonderful miracle than my going to sleep a caterpillar and waking up a butterfly, I don't know what it could be.

leaves didn't taste good any more. By this time I had grown into a great big, fat, lazy caterpillar, with a whole lot of stumpy legs, and a long horn on my tail, but there was not a sign or wings, and how I was ever to be a butterfly, was beyond me. I had a tired feeling, and just wanted to lie around and do nothing. Somehow l had a feeling that something was go- ing to happen, but what it was, l didn't know. and what was more-I didn't care.
 Without hardly knowing what was doing, I began to spin silk threads, around and around my body, until at length was enclosed in a cute little silk case. When 1t was finished, and when was as 'snug as bug in a rug" I got sleepier and sleepier, and first thing knew, I didn't know any thing, as I was fast asleep. Of course, I didn't realize what was going on, but I have found out since that 8 wonder
 full change was taking place, and that
 my caterpillar self was getting harder, and more like a real butterfly. My caterpillar feet shriveled up and dis appeared, and slender butterfly legs
 began to take form. And if you will believe me, real wings were forming too but they were shut up tight like a fan, so they wouldn't take up much room. About this time I walked up, and began to notice how different I was and really I wouldn't have known l my own self, for when went to sleep.

De SlSSn.
 First the hoe. The handle should
 be made of round stock. Drill a hole
 in one end and the wire which is to be attached to the blade.
 The directions call for a piece of wire three-siXteenth in diameter. That is
 not the exact size expression to use as
 a rule, but as it was not intended to
 cause any trouble looking for wire of
 particular gauge, the size is given
 as noted. It should not be smaller
 than indicated, but may be slightly larger. The hole in the handle should
 be slightly smaller than the wire so a tight fit assured.
 Cut out the pattern for the blade
 according to the dimensions, making
 the curves to suit. Next 1atten one end of the wire and bend to shape. The wire is to be fastened to the blade by soldering. To do so, it will be neces- sary to tin the 1attened part of the wire and the place on the blade it is to
 rest against. Solder as usual.
 The making of the rake will be the
 hardest part of the two tools. The handle s not difficult, being very similar to the other handles, so no trouble will be met with here. The pattern for the metal part of the rake, part E, is shown clearly. Lay out very carefully, then cut on the full lines and bend on the dotted

HERE'S something about me, complained Jerry, "that Edward

 - him. don't dast to be or there's no telling what he'd do, but if step out of his sight he hollers like sixty and Mother makes me stay in the yard near his pen all the time."
 'Prety tough" sympathized his friend Jim. Well, t won't be long now before he'll walk. See how steady he is on his feet"
 Maybe!" replied Jerry. "But that wont make it so I can go with you fellers this afternoon. Mother said ] wasn't to go out of his sight,
 The three boys looked gloomily into the play-pen where Edward stood holding on to the side and staring at his brother, all ready to let out a yell at the first suspicious move.
 He's an orful nuisance" said Jerry.
 My little brother walked long be- fore he was a year and half,' said Curly Conrad. 'This one doesn't look g if he was all there."

denly heard a man shout: Hey! Somebody's boat has drifted out!"
 A horrible fear clutched his heart as he looked about him. Their boat was not where it had been on the beach. He looked out and saw it rid ing away on the breakers. He thought of Edward sitting in it alone being drifted off to parts unknown.
 With a cry he darted up and dashed into the water. "Hey, there! What's that kid trying to dol" some one cried.
 Into the surf the boy waded, then plunged down and struck out with all his might for the boat. It hadn't gone far but the waves were deep.
 There was great excitement on the shore and two men plunged in after the brave little rescuer. Soon they had overhauled him and one of them caught hold of the drifting boat.
 "M-my brother!" gasped Jerry, seiZ- ing the man by the shoulder. ''Is he all right?"
 "Oh, is that it?" exclaimed the man, and peered into the boat "A kid, as sure as you ive!" he cried. "Fast asleep too!'
 They helped Jerry Inside and then lowed the boat ashore.
 "Gee,' said the boy, "s'pose he'd been drowned. Guess I'd better hustle home"
 They lifted the sleeping baby from the boat and set him down on the

 Maybe he's half-witted," said Jerry. "I hope not! But if he was clear in his head seems to me he wouldn't act this way. I haven't never done any thing to attract him and we've got girl who's crazy about him but he can't abide her. He wants me around. Whats the good being here at the sea- shore on a vacation when all do is sit here and suffer!"
 Jim had been looking very thought full. Now he moved over to the baby and gazed into his eyes.
 q don't think he's cracked exactly, was the verdict. "He needs training. Take him out of that pen, Jerry" Jerry lifted the untidy and port1y little fellow out and stood him up in the grass.
 'Now, Edward" said Jim firmly. "waIk! Nobody is going to hold you and we're all going to the beach Jerry tool"
 Then he winked at his friends so they'd understand that they must pre- l tend to walk off. They sauntered to

 of threatening yells and slept harder
 than ever.
 Come on. fellers.' said Jerry, 'yon gotta help me carry him home"
 They all agreed willingly and Jim
 and Curly made a stretcher out of
 sweaters and couple of stout sticks
 It was long hot walk and Jerry was
 dry before they reached home. Into
 the play-pen they gently lifted Ed

 the road.
 'No, no, Eddie," coaxed his brother wont you stay here with Jerry? You wouldn't go off and leave your old Jerry, would you?" Edward shook his head violently, tried to hit his brother, stamped his feet, screamed and pointed at the road. Some one in the house hearing the awful commotion stuck her head out 1 of the window.
 "Now, Jerry" warned his mother. Don't think of going off and leaving l your little brother" 'I'm not" replied Jerry. "He wants to get out and leave meE' Curly snickered and rubbing his two first fingers together, he taunted: "That kids getting little sense now"

 The bending of this piece will be the hardest part of the whole set and much patience will be required. If a good wise is at hand the operation

 The part marked M on the pattern is to be folded back and rest against the handle, to which it is fastened. one each side. Small holes are drilled in each of the parts. through which to insert the brad for fastening. In putting the parts together, the end of the handle is inserted into the hole, parts NJ brought into place on the handle and the brad inserted, riveting on one side.

was going to be pirate, but Curly wanted to be on a submarine chaser and finally the rest decided in his favor. It wasn't long before they sighted a submarine and had to man the guns. It was an exciting moment for all, especially Edward, who sat chewing a bit of seaweed in the bot tom of the boat.
 Suddenly Jerry cried: "Oh, boy! The tides coming up! Look!"
 Sure enough! A wave broke and glided up and touched the boat. This

Your mother said not to go out of his sight and you aren't going to-" said Curly, taking one of the hands.
 So Jerry took the other and they all moved slowly out of the yard and down the hot sleepy road to the beach. Edward gave a cry of delight
 '1 bet he'll be a good sport when he once gets a little sense," remarked d Jerry proudly.
 A shout summoned them to the wa ter's edge where a boat was beached. From the boat Danny Squire looked

T bet this big old sandhopper could beat any other on the beach," said Curly, holding a whopper in his hand.
 Bet he can't!'' cried Dan, Because I've got a bigger one"
 They took the two up to the dry sand and put them down. Of course, they hustled for the dear old water. It was awfully funny to watch them, and Curly's won. The others then got "racers" and the game began in earn est.
 In the midst of the fun, Jerry sud-

made it all the more interesting. Up came another wave and washed all around the boat, leaving a dark trail on the hot sand as it ran back into the ocean.
 "Gee!" exclaimed Jim. I'm hun gry. Let's gather some food"
 He had seen the clans and sandhop- pers scuttling about in the wake of the wave. Out of the boat tumbled the boys, followed by the two girls and then what a gay time they had, filling a. bucket with all kinds of sea creatureSi

 LAW, how cunning!" cried Eva. "Help him in! He's going to be my baby.
 Edward was hoisted into the boat, where he fell down and bumped his head, but didn't cry, because every thing was so new and interesting he couldn't spare the time necessary for a good old-fashioned. squall.
