Because, you know, so many peo
pie look down on bugs, To be sure
they must look down on them, in a
way. Bugs aren't up. but they are
down.
But not only are they looked down

down upon in thought, too.
People think that they aren't much
Perhaps they aren't much, but they're

Bug, as all of our family have.
THAT makes me sound rather fine,
1 think.
But the thing that has pleased me
especially. has been this:
There are two people who are very
fond of each other, and for pet name,
one of them calls the other Ladybug.
"Now, what do you think of that,
Miss Laura Ladybug?"
THAT is a most noble thought" said
Miss Laura Ladyhug, and one TO
make you very happy"
Yes said Lcdybug. ''the very first
time 1 heard it, l could hardly believe
it."
But I have heard this person calling
the other person by that pet name
again and again. And l know it is a
pet name.
Il can tell pet name when I hear
1t by the way it is said. Oh, yes, l
have made no mistake 1t is a rare
compliment TO the Ladybug family"
"A rare compliment" said Miss
Laura Ladybug.
"And another thing" said Ladybug,
was the verse that a little girl named
Nelly, made up about bugs the other
day.
This was the verse, Miss Laura
Ladybug.

BREAD" OF STARVING RUSSIA
Called "Lebeda," the Stuff Is Made of
Leaves and Grass, Boiled
and Dried.

A peasant IN the government of Sa-
mara (soviet Russia) told me of how
they make lebeda bread. Here is the
story:
"In our village they take some lin
den leaves and grass, chop them up TO
the size of a flea, and then boil the
mixture. After the water has boiled,
they squeeze it out and put the stuff
again into boiling water Then they
let the water run off through sieve.
and keep the mass until it is dry
After that they grind it fine and add
One-third -four.
1.-The bread you get is green in color
and indigestible. And when there is
no flour, they just bake the ground
mixture as it is. 1t does not taste
very badly; but after a man eats it
for a while he sweIls up and gets
worms in his stomach, and soon after
that he dies. Moscow Pravda.

serves as a diversion drain. Some
times a short concrete dip is used for
the purpose of passing the water over
the road in a comparatively wide and
shallow flow instead of under it. A
dip Is simply a pavement extending
the full width Of the roadway and
protected at each edge against under
mining by a cutoff wall extending 1S
inches below the bottom of the pave
ment. Instead of attempting to build
up a grade for this pavement, so as
to raise it above the flood water, the
dip follows the grade Of the wash, and
the water passes over it In time of

and the country so undevelOped as to
