"Well, a long time ago, there was
q huge forest where the fairies and
elves all lived. They had fairy
queen who was always planning sur
prises for them. One day she called
a few Of her favorites around her
and gave them some orders. "Now be
sure and don't tell anyone" she said,
and off they went laughing and
whispering to each other.
"Days passed, weeks passed, and
then months, but still these little
fairies were busy as bees, working
at some big secret, from morning till
night"
"Tll bet you couldn't keep a secret
that long, jean. You'd go an tell
Souzette. You always do," put in
Robert.
"Finally the fairy queen sent out
her heralds and called all her SUBJ
iects about her. When they were
assembled she said: Tomorrow, come
to this place at the same time. Put
on your finest clothes and come happy
as lark, for I have a great surprise
for you"
"Then the fairy queen sent out her
heralds again, and this time had all
the forest folk sent to her. When

the fairies and forest folk stopped
in amazement. They had never seen
anything like this sight before"
"What-what was it," the children
chorused.
"Gee! I almost dropped that great
big ornament" said Robert excitedly.
1T was great, huge pine tree,
decorated with little packages. These
little parcels were wrapped In paper
which looked like a spiders webb so
fine, silky and delicate was 1t. Then
these were suspended from the tree
by q string which shone in the after
noon sunlight like raindrops.
Little stars had given their serv-
ices for the surprise and they
twinkled from among all the branches.
It was too much for the little sub
jects and they sat down about the
tree where they were to admire it.
"Then some Of the fairies began TAX
ing the packages off and giving one to
each member. There was honey for

corn for Mister Rat, berries and seeds

they had wanted. 1t was a great sue.

"So," continued Mrs. Martin, when
Santa began making toys for children

took up too much room, and he wanted
to make toys"
Mrs. Martin nodded.

to get the trees and trim them for

'That's how they thought Of these
ornaments, then," said Souzette. "This,

Old Sol is the real freckle dispenser.
His rays, on their way to earth, fall
alike on the just and the unjust and
so the just and the unjust have

Of fair complexion and hair. Some
people never have freckles because
their skin is not the same as that of
the freckled ones.
The action of the sun on the skin
of persons of light complexion causes
a yellowish or brownish substance to

and forms freckles. Some people
even have permanent freckles, but in

True Thrift.

While it is true that thrift is not
miserliness and that parsimony does
not bring happiness or upbuilding, it
cannot be disputed that judicious saw
ing forms the only basis of economic
progress and lasting happiness.
Thoughtless spending may bring
transitory joy, but such practices also
come accompanied by the torture of
worry and the more tangible realities
of poverty Also the question must be
viewed from the standpoint of social
progress.
We must not live for self alone Our
duty must run further than self-pleas-
ure and individual happiness. We
must be constructive, not only because
it is better for us, but also because it
is better for all mankind. Let us be
extremely careful in discouraging prac-
tees of thrift, even though it may seem
that the individual is denied certain
ephemeral and fictitious pleasures

Find Gold Under Fossils.

In Alaska the bones, and often the
entire bodies, of extinct animals, such
as the mammoth, the mastodOn, the
reindeer and the bison, are found
most abundantly in the layers of soil
directly above the gold-bearing gravcis.
SO intimate is this association between
fossil animal remains and the aurifer-
Gus deposits that many explorers who
have visited Alaska say that the fos-
sis serve the prospectors as indexes
of the metallic richness of the soil.
In ancient times both the gold and
the bones and bodies of the animals
were deposited at the bottom of valleys
by the action of rivers and smaller
streams, many of which have nov
disappeared. Consequently, the APP
pearance of fossils is an almost certain
indication that gold will be found in
the neighborhood. The cabins of many
miners are ornamented with huge tusks
and antlers, unearthed in the dig
gings.

The Law and the Kina.

We remember that, even in the days
of almost universal assent to the di-
vine authority of kings, Justice Coke
could boldly challenge and check the
autocratic Charles with the Judgment
that the law was superior to the will
of the sovereign. Christian teachings
and evolution of two thousand years,
and the slow and laborious develop
ment of the principles of justice and
judgment by proof, demand this crown
ing triumph of ages of sacrifice and
struggle. The closing of the nine
teenth, the most. beneficent and pro-
gressive of centuries, would be made
glorious by giving to the twentieth
this rich lesson and guide for the
growth Of its humanities and the pres
ervation and perpetuity of civilization
and liberty. Depew.

The u. w. Press Bulletin says that
a recent investigation of the methods
of handling eggs by the various dealers
in the state showed no uniformity in
grading or in methods of packing. Due
to this fact Wisconsin eggs were found
to have bad reputation on the outside
markets. Some of the best and some
of the very worst eggs received on the
central markets are shipped from this
state. Market officials report that re-
ceivers on these markets look with con-
siderable suspicion upon Wisconsin
shipments unless they are personally
acquainted with the shipper and know
the grade of eggs he packs. To deal
with the egg marketing situation from
a statewide standpoint they are rec
ommending a statewide egg and poul-
try dealers association. Preliminary
steps for the organization of such an
association have been taken and sys-
tenn of state wide grading and brand
ing for Wisconsin eggs will be worked
out and put into effect if such move
is found to be desirable.
