Now was the time, you think, for
Pumpkin Vine to have revenge but
not in the way you may think did she
take it. Very softly she spoke to poor,
fallen Miss Cornstalk. 'T-.e sun is
nice and warm, ever if the nights are
cool" she said, land it will not be
long before you will be taken into a
nice warm barn, so do not feel so
sad.
You are very fortunate to be able
to see so much of the world, for from
your lofty place you must have seen
many things / have missed and / am
sure you will see many things down
here that will make you glad you
came"
Miss COrnstalk looked at Pumpkin
Vine and saw the big golden pumpkin.
"You were right. Your day OF glory
has come and you are my equal" she
sighed, "and you should have been
queen of the field instead of me, for
you know he > to be kind 20 those who
have been unkind to you, and the real
queen is the one who rules herself
first"
Poor, foolish Miss C%ornstalk; while
she was beautiful she had no time for
wise thoughts, but when her beauty
was gone she found out that beautiful
deeds count for more than silken

i even so far forgot my high station
as to speak to you.
"A queen should speak only to her
equals, and I wish you would not adj
dress me again, for l really cannot
notice one so far beneath me-"
Pumpkin Vine said something about
kindness being the greatest virtue a
queen could have, but Miss Cornstalk
only shook her silken locks that they
might glisten In the sunlight and held
her head higher than eve as her
green sas futtered in the breeze.
But one day when Pumpkin Vine
had forgotten all about the unkindness
of naughty Miss Cornstalk, down fell
something close beside her.
Pumpkin Vine now had a large yell
low pumpkin Of which any vine should
have been proud, but she did not brag
about its gold. She knew that other
vines had golden pumpkins and that
it was not the only beautiful thing In
the world.
But what was it that lay on the
ground beside her? Pumpkin Vine
looked and there was Miss Cornstalk,
proud and naughty no more, for her
silken tresses were gone and her
green sash and all that was left of
her former glory was a long stalk
with husks withered and dry.

MISS CORNSTALK grew very

her silky hair floated over her pale

MILDRED

MILDRED is something of a holy
49, name, since it has a heritage
closely associated with religious
orders. Though said to be of Teutonic
origin, it was exclusively Saxon in it's
early use; indeed it may be said to
be almost Mercian, since it's first ap-
p%earance was in the family of King
Merowald.
Mild was a Saxon word meaning
"mild", and by the addition of "thyth',
another Saxon term signifying com
mand', the feminine name Mildthyth
was formed. Because it was trans
lated to mean mild speech" 1t was
much used as a name for gentle DAM
sells with religious inclinations.
King Merowald lad three daughters
whom he named Mildgyth Mildburgh,
and Mild.hyth-thus employing all
versions of the name then in use. All
three became nuns of a holy order.
The two latter were later ADDRESSES,
one in Shropshire, the other in the Isle
Of Thaner. They were finally can
onized in recognition of their sanity
lives. as Mildburgh and Mildreda.
Thus Mildred, Mildrid, or Mildreda
Gas you prefer came into existence
and ~straightway won great popularity
in Shropshire and, later, throughout
all England. Germany adopted Mil
dred, but it has never had definite
vogue there in spite of its supposed
Teutonic origin. The consonants were
too harsh for France and Spain,
though the latter occasionally en-
ploys Mildreda, accenting only the
vowels in the soft Latin manner.
Mildred was the name given to the
famous daughter of Burleigh and
through her, its place among English
maids was forever assured. Recently
it was revived to even greater vogue
in England and America and etymolo-
gists claim that the record of babies
christened by that name in late years,
would be astounding and unbeliev-
able.
The emerald is Mildred's talismanic

THE ROMANCE OF G R
BOARD"

THE resources of a language
= for the expression of thought
are frequently increased by at
%tributing to the same word a
number of different meanings.
Thus we have "post"-fron the
Latin pono, Il place"-showing
up in such words as postage"
''p~ost-haste," "post-ofice" and
the like, while head and
court" are others of the same
type. But, of all these. the
most interesting is board" orig
inally connected with broad"
and applied to that form of
timber which is characterized by
its breadth rather than its
thickness.
Several boards manifestly go
TO make up a table but, in the
old days, a single plank, rather
fiimsily supported, was sufficient
for this purpose. We, therefore,
have the S of the word in the
of the table itseif-the
festive b0ard"-and also the
meals, board and lodging" The
significance of the table is also
apparent in the use of the word
in such titles as Board of Trade.
Board of Commerce and the like
all of these bodies meeting
around or sitting beside a table.
Again, board" is specifically
used TO denote the plank cover
ing of a vessel, and in this
sense, gives rise to Il new group +.
: of phrases, of which "aboard" /
and "above-board' are typical. {
The paper-maker, too, has his
technical uses for the term. To
him it signifies the stiffest and
thickest-the most bOard-like- !
of his products, and "card- {
board" is the result.

mother told him how much better il
would be for every one if he only left
the cherries until they were ripe, so
they could be enjoyed. She also
warned him she would punish him if.
he went to the orchard again.
Soon she saw him pulling off the
green cherries and she went out and
cut a tiny switch from the tree. Rich

switch in hand, and the little lad said
to her earnestly:

POULTRY NOTES.

A hen is in her best condition only when she is seen industriously at work. Nothing will more quickly make scrubs out of good stock than scrub treatment.
 Pefckes should be built low and ar- ranged so they can easily be taken out and cleaned.
 Uniformity in the size of eggs can best be obtained by keeping one stand ard breed of hens.
 If ducks are oyerfed, they sometimes become so fat that their legs are in- capable of supporting their bodies.
 
 Every poultryman should lay in a supply of alfalfa and clover for his fowls during the winter. Green feed is as essential as grain.
 If every farm flock could be rid of the drones and worthless members that lay few eggs, there would at once be an amazing increase in profits.
 One of the greatest drawbacks to successful poultry-keeping is the att tempt of many folks to crowd 50 fowls where there is only room for 25.
 
 One of the greatest mistakes in feeding poultry is that of giving an exclusive grain ration. Meat. greens vegetables, etc, snould all have place.
 Poultry raising is similar to farm ing in that 1t is not so much the num- Der of acres owned, but the number handled that gives the prof It's. Small, we'll cared for fiocks of fowls always bring the best returns,
