Why DO We Press Hard
On DOUn Strokes
When WritinQ?

One reason for this is the way
in which pens arc made. Whether
we use quill or metal pen il
Is so made that II runs more free
iy, II pressed, coming downward
than II does going upward, for when
il goes upward, II pressed, the poin,
Is apt 10 stick in the paper. That,
however, is certainly not the whole
reason. Even when we use pen
that has a turned-up point, or when
we use pencil, we find that we
tend rather 10 press coming down
ward. This remains true even il we
make the experiment OF writing with
the top end OF the pencil turned
away from US instead OF turned
towards US. There is no doubt that
the real reason is to be found in
the way in which our hands are
made.
The muscles that bend our fingers
are vastly stronger than those that
unbend them. Bending them is, of
course, the important thing that re-
quires strength, because it is by
bending the fingers that we hold and
grasp. The muscles that unbend
are, comparatively, very feeble, just
as the muscles that open the mouth
are feeble compared with those that
close it. So we naturally use more
force on the strokes we make, with
the closing, than the unclosing mus,

One Of my little New England
friends, whose name is Abbie Bod
fish, and she lives in Hyannis, Mass,
has sent me the following recipe for
my cook book. She writes that her
father taught her how to make it,
and it surely sounds awfully good,
and / am going to try it right away.
JACK WAX.
Take one pint Of maple syrup and
cook it until it hardens quickly
when dropped in snow. Then drop it
in spoonfuls over the surface of a
pan Of snow. This should be pre-
pared beforehand and the snow
should be pressed down firmly in the
pan. Be sure the snow is clean. This
will be nice for the Go-Hawks who
live where there is snow to serve
their friends with popcorn and ap-
Piles when they have parties.
"ABBIE BODFISH."
Thanks ever 50 much, Abbie, for
sending this recipe to me. POLLY.

The Week Before Christmas

fun,
Playing together at vacation:
On Monday we went for 4 morning

To visit a distant relation.
On Tuesday we drove again in our

And had a pleasant day.

Papa would lose the way.
On Wednesday we had happy time
Together at home with baby.
We played and played and played

To visit the Christmas shops,
Where mama bought me beautiful

And two big lollipops.

carpets,
And busted off the chairs;
While papa and / played with oui

Three Belgian hares.
Saturday was lucky. I drew 4 pony
At the department store.

After some work the Tennie

taffy from her beak and foot.

Tilly had utterly ruined one pan
of the taffy, but fortunately there
was another pan left and this the
little folks soon pulled until it was
golden brown.
They cut il into small pieces and
that night the Tcenie Weenies all
enjoyed the delicious taffy as they
sat around the tiny fireplace.

Professor Trevcllyn looked at the

Der, you arc fathers brave girl.
Here comes auntie now. Auntfr,

sure she will enjoy what you have
brought her on the tray. My! My!
those blue dishes look like party"
Miss Sallic gently coaxed the child
to eat, and then, as she made ready
| for bed the slender figure she
thought tenderly of another Patience
with whom she used to romp years
before, and to whom also everything
in their little play world was intense
ly real. The sweet memories OF
other days made her place her hand
if possible, more lovingly than usual
on the head of Patience as she knelt
by her side to repeat the childish
| prayer.
"Auntie, would you care if ! didn't

made up my own prayers"
"You may say whatever you wish,
dear"

gan haltingly: "Dear God-my

our pains and make US good girls.
Do not forget to stay awakcl This
is all for tonight. Amcn"
Neither Miss Sallie nor Patience
heard slight noise in the hall. The
child fell asleep almost as soon as
her head touched the pillow, and
then Miss Sallie went to search for
the other little maid to bring her to
bed. She was somewhat surprised
when Prudence also requested that
she, too, might be permitted to
change her prayers to suit the needs
of the hour. She did not know that
the little one had overheard her sis
ter's prayer and that her imagination
had been actively at work ever
since.
Aunt Sallie gave smiling per-
mission. Dear God in Heaven, 1
think by this time you have digested
my sisters prayer. You're not what
folks think you are. | think you
must be like Jacks father, with just
one boy in the family. You should
have been mother and had girls,
and then you'd have watched over
our daughters better and not let
them get 'flicted. It's your duty to
punish those wicked boys, who
most broke our hearts. S'pose you
turn Donald's hair red and never let
it stop growing, and you'd better
make it curl and make Piggy stay
little always. and make him shrink
some like our flannel petticoats did.
Please do these things. Amenv
Miss Sallie felt grateful that II
was almost dark in the room and
that her face was in the shadow
when the child opened her bright
eyes and kissed her goodnight.

Once upon a time there were two
little dogs who lived in a lumber
yard Their names were Jippy and
Jimmy. One day they ran away to
the river where they saw some logs
floating in the water. They thought
it would be fun to play on them.
So it was, for little while. They
jumped about in glec. Soon they
got tired of playing like that SO they
began to wrestle as they did on
lumber. This was too much for
the logs. One OF them rolled over;
souse went the puppies into the
water. Such looking puppies as they
we're when they clambered out. They
never had been so wet and cold.
All the way home they ran crying
