Ruskin's King of the Golden River" Keep the happy note uppermost in choosing fairy tales for very young children. The Scandinavian tales, such as Grimm and Andersen, are a bit somber in places for the child too young. The Oz books are bright and will stretch the simagination till it aches.

 It's joy to mention Kipling's Just So Stories and his Jungle Books" pr. Van Looms Ancient Man" and other fascinating books of history for children: Robinson Crusoe," Swiss Family Robinson" "Gulliver's Trav- els.'

There are Mrs. Dix's ''Mer- rylips.' a fine book with historical setting: 'Tdylls of the King" adapted for children from Tennyson, Shake speare's "Tales for Children I could go on and on.

 'The second ceremony was prompt ed by conscience" says the double bride.

 And anyhow I like the thrill of being a bride. So we decided to do it all over again, only this time in a church.

 John never mentioned Elaine 10 Marcia. In fact he never had spoken of her to any one. So now he would keep his secret, keep her enshrined in his heart unknown to any one. But thoughts of her would strengtkes him, as thoughts of good women strengthen men.
 When John Aldrich left his den that night-rather. in the morning his romance was locked in his heart He had nothing to remind him of Elaine save a small heavy glove, a sensible glove for a working woman to wear. He had stolen it one night when she dined with him and had kept it in the drawer of his office desk. It was now the only tangible thing he possessed that reminded him of Elaine Westmore.
 Often he would open the drawer and lay his hand on the glove, seem ing to derive strength from contact with the inanimate bit of kid. Oc- casionally when he remaind after the others had gone he would take it from it's hiding place and hold 1t to his lips.
 What in the world has come over you. John? One would think you had lost your last and only friend the way you act nowadays. Talk about an owl being solemn. Why, he's a l joy-bird compared to you.

Of compounds known as hydrocarbons,
which differ widely in their chemical
and physical characteristics. The va
