But who minded that? There was
Aunt Jessie waiting for them on the
station platform and, they were soon
tucked up beside her in her pretty
little car, which she had learned to
drive herself.
Then followed days of fun and
jollity until Peggy, in an adventurous
search in the hay-room for eggs,
slipped and sprained her ankle. She
looked so queer and white as she lay
on the floor, that Flo ran crying to
Aunt Jessie, who soon had her in the
house, and teIephoned for the doctor.
"A quiet week on the sofa for you,

careful that none are driven where

A PRETTY EASTER IDEA

part ef the work"
And when Easter Sunday dawned
and the many farmers and the good
minister arrived al the little school
house their establishment and admira-
ton were great. The little room
bloomed with spring-like blossoms.
and few could be made to believe
that the lilies were made of paper
till they really touched them. so very
natural they were. Katie and Min
ME had done their work amazingly
well. and they were amply repaid
when they saw the happiness their
pretty decorations gave to the small
congregation.
After the services 1t was found
that the thoughtful little girls had
made Just enough pots and baskets
of blossoms to give one to each fam
lily present, and the result was that
each farmers table in that neigh
borhood had its pretty floral centre
decoration at dinner.
Where there's a will there's a
way" smiled the good Dr. Dash
after the service was over and he was
making inquiry into the herefores
of the wonderful Easter lilies.

and tell Peggy all the wonderful
things she saw and did.
The climax came when old Blackie
proudly strutted about with a brand
new family of fluffy little yellow
chicks following her, all scram bling
for the grains of yellow cornmeal that
Aunt Jessie and Flo scattered around.

see them" said Peggy. giving a wry
little smile.
Have a little patience dear" said
Aunt Jessie, Il think the doctor will
let you walk a bit next week, if you
are obedient."
Flo slipped away very quietly. Sud
denly a splendid idea had come in her
head, and she ran quickly down to
the chicken house.
Old Blackie was in the coop. but
two or three of the little fluffy yellow
balls were busy taking a sand bath in
a corner.
Flo tiptoed over to them, and MAX

Yes, 1 did" said poor Flo. almost
in tears.
well, that is a perfectly lovely
idea" said Aunt Jessie. But we must
be careful not to do harm or hurt to
anyone else by the kind act. Run
Flo dear. and take her little truants
back to her.
Back ran Flo to the chicken-yard
and as soon as Blackie saw her, with
the little chicks, she darted at her,
and pecked at her legs, in a very
excited way. Poor Flo was dreadfully
frightened, and it was a lucky thing
that Aunt Jessie came along and
drove old Blackie away.
Wasn't she dreadfully angry" said
Flo. after Aunt Jessie had soothed
her Il would not have hurt her lit
tie chicks"
Well, dear. You know Daddy's
and Mummy's are meant TO take care
of their little ones, and keep them
from harm. If your Mummy saw a
big giant come and run away with
you, she would fight and try and keep
you from harm. Poor Blackie did
not understand and was just taking
care of her babies

IN poor Western community.
where the Sunday services were
- held in the little wooden school
house. there was very pretty Easter
idea carried out. A few days be-
fore Easter one of the good women
of the neighborhood called on an
other good woman and put before
her this question: How shall we
arrange about decorating the school
house for Easter service? II seems
sad to make no special preparations
for that occasion. and good DR.. Dash
will have such a splendid sermon for
us. We should in some way make
the place used as our temple of wor-
ship attractive on that day. Of all
days"
The good woman appealed to was
very quick at getting inspirations"
She thought for a moment. then said:
my Katie and Minnie are splendid
at making paper flowers. How would
1t do to make paper Easter lilies and
put them in little baskets and pots
to place about the room?"
Splendid" cried the first woman.

BAKED HASH WITH EGGS

eff there is doubt about an egg being
perfect, open each separately over a
sauce dish and then slide it from
the sauce dish into the hash.)
Season with a bit of pepper and salt
for each egg.
Put into the oven and bake till the
eggs are done which will take about
fifteen minutes. If there is a very
large dish of hash, it better be baked
some 10 minutes before the eggs are
put on so 1t will be hot and the eggs
will not get too well done.
