"Where am To- she asked, looking
about, and then she discovered that
she did not have her wand.
you are in my cave, and I am the
King of the Gnomes," said the Old
Gnome. "You must become my wife,
for I have your wand and you cannot
escape.
with your wand you can do many
things and 1 wish you to make this
place a palace, such as King should
live in and command all things which
! wish TO be done"
The little Fairy knew 1t was useless
to refuse or make any cutlery, for she
knew that the Old Gnome had her In
his power just as long as he had her
wand, though for him it would not
yield its magic power.
every we'll" said the little Fairy,
meekly. 81 will become your wife, but
if we are to wed, why not have the
wedding in the palace we are to live
in and be married as BELTS your Ma
jesty's station"
This battered the Old Gnome so
much that he decided he would like to
be dressed in rich and royal robes for
the wedding. So he gave the wand to
the Fairy and told her to change his
ragged brown clothes to velvet and
gold.
As soon as the Fairy had the wand
she waved it three times over the Old
Gnome, repeating some magic words
that only fairies know, but instead Of
the velvet and gold suit there appeared
the shell Of turtle and the Gnome
was no longer there. He had disap-
peared and a heavy-Shelled turtle
slowly crawled away.
Out of the cave fiuttered the little
Fairy and hurried to her Queen, to
whom she told what had happened.
II was so sorry to use my power that
way she said, ''but / could think of
no other way to escape from the Old
Gnome, and as turtles live to very
great old age l changed him into that
shape.
So if you happen to find an old tur
tie some day and are told by some
one who can tell the age of one that
it is perhaps one hundred years old
it may be that once it was the Old
Gnome, who called himself the King
of the GnOmes, and carried off the
Fairy to his cave and was changed
into turtle for his wicked deed.

MAKE HOURS COUNT
CAVING time is wasted effort unless
- you utilize the time you save.

GAZING time is wasted effort unless
- you utilize the time you save.
Most people are in a hurry. They
rush to their offices in the morning
They rush to their homes at night.
When they get to the office they sit
around waiting for dinner.
About three-quarters of the aver
age mans time is spent Sitting
around" And time spent sitting
around is always wasted time
You are given about eight hours to
loaf If you want to and eight hours
to work.
Unless you have an unusually easy
job, you can save little out of the
eight hours working time
You can save from one to five hours
out of the eight, at least once or
twice week, if you are careful.
But unless you use that time, and
use 1t wisely, there will be no sense
In saving it.
Most successful men are very care
full to save little time out of the
So-called idle eight hours.
They use this either to add to the
efforts they put forth on their regular
business, or to take up something re-
lated to their business which is incon-
venient to do during working hours.
In other words, use their time az
intelligently as they do their money.
They make it earn dividends. And
time set to work In that fashion Is
always a good investment
Steamships, railroads, rapid transit
lines have together effected an I'M
mense saving of time for the human
race.
No longer does man need to spend
month, practically idle all the time,
going from London to New York He
can go in less than week, with three
weeks saved.
Those three weeks are worth money.
They may mean success. Use them
and considerable share of all the
time you save, and your output will
soon begin to show a gratifying In
crease.

GNOME AND THE FAIRY

once upon a time there lived an
~ Old Gnome, who called himself
the King of the Gnomes because of his
age. He never did any work and lived
by stealing into the homes of the hard
working Gnomes, when they were
away and taking wlfasahe could find.
One day, as he came up from the
underground home of the Gnomes, he
happened to sit down under a violet
leaf at the very time one of the Fairies
was resting in the violet blossom.
EeThe little Fairy was on her way
home from some work she had done
for her Queen and stopped to rest,
and fell asleep in the pretty violet.
She dropped her magic wand on the
ground and it was the wand that the
Old Gnome saw first.
"Ah, there must be Fairy about
said he. II will creep out and look
around"
OF course, he at once espied the
pretty Fairy asleep and he decided to

WHY q
.sssss =
is THERE A HOLLOW -
PLACE IN A BOILED -
EGG

USUALLY the hollow space appears
~ at the narrow end of the boiled
egg and exists because air is placed
inside the egg in order that the little
chicken may not stifle to death be-
tween the time it commences to live
and the moment when 1t is strong
enough to crack the shell and dig its
way out into the world.
The chick Is ready to come out of
the egg almost as soon as it comes to
life, therefore it needs but little air,
which accounts for the small space
left vacant within the shell. When the
egg is boiled, the substances within 1t
become hardened and fit closely togeth-
er-thus forcing the air out toward one
end of the shell and leaving space
which may be clearly seen when one
opens hardbOiled egg.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"DoN'T"

TT HE word don't" Is in gen
L eral use and 1t is recognized
by grammarianS as good Eng
fish word, but it must be remem-
bcred that don't Is cOntrac-
ton of the verb do" and the
adverb mot" and it is equlva-
lent, therefore, to do not" and
not to docs not" Don't"
should be used only where the
two words do not may be put
in its place.
Correct usage permits the en-
ployment of don't" only with a
plural noun or pronoun, or with
the personal pronoun II" or the
personal pronoun you" Never
say "he don't" "she don't" ut
don't" etc. Even the most I'M
trained ear will detect the error
when, for example, "he do not
go" is spoken or written, but
the incorrectness of "he don't
go" is not so apparent.
Such use of the word don't"
as In the sentence, "One swal-
low don't make spring" is
heard frequently; but its incor-
rectness becomes apparent when
"dO not" Is substituted for
don't" and the sentence be-
comes zone swallow do not
make q spring.
The proper wora to use when
a contraction for "does not" is
desired Is doesn't; for exam
pie, "One swallow doesn't make
spring."

WAITING FOR CHOPS

Have you ever noticed that the one and only bust
ntss, which is still using the ancient method Of
serving the public, is the butcher business? They
still use the knife and to cut off slice of juicy
T-bone steak: Why doesn't some inventive genius
bring forth modern method, SO that when you
stand in line for your steak, it be cut off in an
instant 1t is still the old method Of cutting to the
bone with knife and then saving the bone with
the old meat saw, by the strong method. We're
not finding fault, but it occurred to the other
day while waiting in line for few chops, when the
fellow ahead ordered twelve cuts Of porterhouse.
1t took the butcher just twenty minutes. The
chops were fine, when we finally received them
