 At Marion's piercing cry, both Elizabeth and | turned and dashed for the stairs. Rut quick as we were, Lillian was swifter still, She brushed past ns as we reached the top step, and graspng the hanister, she flung herself down three steps at time. as lightly as m athletic young girl could have done,
 By the time we had reached the bottom step she was running through the lower hall But refractory catch npon the screen door brought her to sudden stop. and in the few nic-stricken seconds in which she wrested with it, we behind her were enabled to see the reason for Marion's screams.
 The children, tired of the circus, evidently had been staging Wild West story. They were all attired in broad-trimm straw hats. in evident imitation of sombreros all save little Roderick as ] caught sight of him l had for second no breath even to scream a command, if l had not been afraid it would startle the child. That the scene before us was in- tended to represent a lynching was plain even to any one unversed in the weird things which children can evolve from unbrided imaginations.

"Trees!" Master Meadow Mouse echoed, T can't eat trees, I've never eaten a tree in all my life There must be something that my cousin forgot to explain. So l suppose I'll have 10 run after him again and ask him what he meant"
 The fourth time that Master Mea- dow Mouse found his cousin he took no chances. He caught his cousin by his tail and held -on firmly.
 "You're not going to get away from ne again till I've found out what l want to know" he declared. How can l eat a tree?" Master Meadow Mouse demanded.
 You can't" his cousin replied, struggling desperately to free himself, for he was too busy to stop long.
 Then explain what you mean.' Master Meadow Mouse cried.
 Eat the bark" his cousin an swered.
 Then-and not till then--Master Meadow Mouse let him go.
 Master Meadow Mouse chased his cousin no more. but hurried away to Farmer Greens orchard, where he gnawed ring all the way around one of the young fruit trees. at the top of the snow. It was the first pig meal he had enjoyed for weeks. And he went home feeling that the winter was not so hard as he had thought after all.
 But Farmer Green didn't agree with him. When he happened to go into the orchard one day. later, and e,u free after tree ruined, he was very, very much displeased.

EATING 4 TREE.

AS simon Screecher remarked to his cousin Solomon Owl. it was a hard winter. The snow was deen The days were cold. And the nights were colder. And worst of all food became scarce. It seemed as if there wasn't anything 10 eat anywhere eN- cept at the farm building, which Farmer Green had stuffed full of hay and grain during the summer and autumn. Many of the forest folk stole down from Blue Mountain aft CT nightfall and visited the farmyard in the hope of getting d bite of some thing or other.
 Even Master Meadow Mouse be- gan 10 find it harder and hsrdeu He had stored away stock of food. But it hadn't been big enough And that was great mistake Master Meadow Mouse promised himself that he would not repeat it another time. Unfortunately, all the promises in the world wouldn't give him square meal when he needed one,
 At last he went to one of his cou- sins who had already spent one win ter in the meadow.
 This is my first winter" Master Meadow Mouse explained. I'm run ming short of food And ] wish you'd tell me what to do in such a case
 That's easy" his cousin answered. Get more'" And then he hurried away, for he had important business to attend to.

 Housewives make great mistake in allowing themselves to become so weak and nervous that it is well-nigh impos- sible for them to attend to their neces- sary household duties.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- pound should be taken when you first notice such symptoms as nervousness, backache, weakness and irregularty. It will help you and prevent more serious trouble. Give it fair trial. It surely helped Mrs. Hatfield, just as ithas many, many other women.

THAN CALQMEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets
 are a Harmless Substitute

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets the sub. stitute for calomel el-are mild but sure laxative. and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olive. colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Cslomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong Iiquids. It is best not to take calomel, Let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.
 Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel "logy" and "heavy" They clear" clouded brain and "perk up" the spirits. l5c and BOG.
