"Yum, yum" said Brother, as h
crammed a big piece of comb
dripping with honey into his
mouth

Bear was a sorry sight. Yes, indeed.
Littlest Bear was a sorry-l looking lit
tie Bear. One eye was so swollen that
she couldn't see out of it at all. Her
lips were swollen. One side of her
face was swollen. One side of her
stung on her body in many places
where the bees had worked down
into her fur. She had been stung on
her paws.
Instead of rushing to join her
brother and sister, Littlest Bear
hung back. In the first place, she
was ashamed. - In the second place,
she was afraid that there might still
be some of those bees around. She
was afraid Of Mother Bear. So Lit
tlest Bear hung back.
Yum, yum!" said Brother as he
crammed a big piece of comb drip
ping with honey into his mouth.
"Oh-oooo!" said Sister, as she
greedily reached for an even bigger
piece. Mother Bear looked over at
sorry-looking Littlest Bear. There
was a twinkle in Mother Bears eyes.
She knew how very, very miserable
Littlest Bear felt. She herself had
been stung much worse than Littlest
Bear. But her skin was tougher
| than Littlest Bears skin. Moreover,
she had been stung many times be-
fore and she knew that the pain
would not last long. She pulled out
a piece of comb and tossed it so that
it fell at the feet of Littlest Bear.
Then Littlest Bear knew that she no
| longer had anything to fear from
Mother Bear because of her disohedi-
ence.
Litt1est Bear thought that she was
too miserable to eat anything. She
had thought that she no longer had
any desire for that food which had
smelled so delicious and made her
mouth water. But she tasted that
honey at her feet. My, such sweet
ness! She hadn't supposed that there
could be anything in the Great
World as sweet as that. She took
another taste. Then she forgot all
about her troubles. Yes, sir, sorry
looking Lttlest Bear forgot all about

her troubles. She gobbled UP that
piece Of comb as greedily as the two
other little Bears were gobbling up
what they had. She licked UP the
honey that had run out on the
ground. Then she took "a few steps
nearer. Mother Bear tossed her
some more. Littlest Bear reached
for it eagerly.
1t was a wonderful feast that
Mother Bear and the triplets had.
They remained right there until they
couldn't find another drop of honey
to be licked up. By that time the
stomachs of the little Bears were so
full that they were almost like little
/ balloons.
AS Mother Bear led them away to
lie down for a nap Littlest Bear kept
close to Mother Bears heels. She
was still a sorry-looking little Bear.
She still ached and smarted, but she
no longer whined. Mother Bear
stopped at the Laughing Brook and
rubbed her face in mud on the edge
of it. She told Littlest Bear to do
the same thing. 1t took out some OF
| the ache from her swollen face. But
when they moved on again Littlest
Bear was an even sorrier-looking
Bear than she had been before.

DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES LIFE
TALKS ON HEART AND HOME

itself that it doesn't notice whose
toes it treads upon is not to have
any vanity. If you don't think that
you call for any kowtowing from
your fellow creatures, or expect
them to get out the band and beat
upon the cymbals at your approach,
you will find that most of the people
you meet are ready to fall on your
neck in sheer gratitude. We all get
so tired of the cyclists whom we
have to be always tanning with hot
air.
When we learn not to take our
selves too seriously we have found
a panacea for trouble. We no
longer say: "Why should my heart
be torn with this grief and loss?
Why should I be called upon to bear
this heavy burden? What have l
done that I should be so affected?"
But we say: why should /, Of all
the myriads of men and women in
the world, be immune from the COM
mon lot? Why should l be exempt
from sorrow while my brothers, and
sisters weep? Why should not my
back be bowed to the same load, UNI
der which others must stagger? Why
should I be blessed above all others
on earth?"
And the realization that we are
just one of the great suffering, sor-
rowing, struggling mass silences the
whine on our lips and gives us cour-
age to fight on, instead of running
up the white flag of surrender.
The greatest cross in life is having
to live with uncongenial and dis
y a hln nnnoln toInc lace orf
and fortitude to meet a great crash
ing sorrow than it does to bear with
patience and courage the fretting
and nagging and complaining of
some member of our own household.
They are the little pin pricks. that
drive you to desperation. and the
only remedy for the situation is not
to take them seriously, and to try to
set a humorous perspective on the
situation.
After ALL nagging wife who tells
man twenty times a day for forty
years not to smoke in the sitting
room because it scents up the carpet,

1t is having to endure wife's nag
ging and husbands fault-finding; it
is having to put up with Aunt James
Whims and cater to Uncle Johns Pc
culiarities and endure fathers and
mothers perpetual meddling, that
takes all the happiness out of life
for thousands of people and drives
them to nervous prostration. Their
only hope is just to laugh instead of
gnashing their teeth, and to try to
see their old men or women of the
sea as figures Of fun instead of tor
turers.
For. after all, there is lots of trag-
edy that we can turn into farce if
only we have enough backbone and
funnybone to do it.

We do not have to be continually
on our guard to maintain a dignified
pose, because we have arrayed our
selves in the FOOLS motley by choice.
We do not have to make martyrs of
ourselves being consistent, because
we frankly admit that we change
our minds as often as we do our
clothes. We do not have to pose
as something we are not, because
We have never climbed up on a pedes-
tai.
Also we deprive OH family and
friends Of their favorite indoor
amusement by confessing to our
faults and acknowledging our pecu-
liarities. For there is no pep in
criticizing an individual who is
amused at your stabs, instead of
wincing and weeping under them.
There is no fun in laughing at those
who laugh at themselves.
Nothing saves us from such ag-
gravation of spirit as not to take
ourselves too seriously. There are
no people so miserable as those
whose selfesteem is q passion that
consumes them. Every moment of
their lives is poisoned by the fear
that they will not get all that is
coming to them.
Their presence at a dinner table,
their being put on just the right com
mittee, their being invited to small
party instead Of a big one, the size
type in which their names are print
ed in a newspaper are Notwithstanding
incidents to them. And if, by chance
we call such one captain when he
is colonel, or mistake Mrs. Smith
for Mrs. Brown, or spell name
wrongly, or forget just what honor
airy letters of the alphabet go after
it, we have made an enemy for life
You can never explain to those
who think they are the hub Of the
universe that the balance of the uni
verse doesn't spend it's time watch
| ing how they revolve.

Using Carbon Bi-Sulpkide on I'm
Shucked Corn

c. NJ. o., Westminster, S. c.,
writes: Will carbon bi-sulphide
have the same effect on weevi1s
in corn in the shuck as when
it is shocked?
Carbon bisulphide can be used to
destroy weevils in unshucked corn
as well as in that which has been
shucked. 1t is much more difficult
to make the treatment when the
corn is in the shuck, however, and
it will call for the use of a much
larger supply of carbon bisulphide.
Where the granary is comparatively
tight, the use of two pounds of car
bon bisulphide per one thousand
cubic feet of space is considered sat
isfactory provided, of course, the
temperature is around 20 degrees
Fahrenheit. When corn is in the
shuck, however. it may be necessary
to use as much as six pounds. The
treatment should be continued say
for twenty-four hours before the pro-
cess of aeration is started. 1t is i'm
portant to air the building very
thoroughly after giving such a heavy
treatment with carbon bisulphide
not only so as to make an intake of
air to individuals, but also to lessen
the danger from fire or combustion.
It is important to remember in this
connection that lighted cigars, pipes
or matches should not be used in or
about the granary where this mate
rial is being applied as it is inflam-
mable in the presence Of light. Re.
peating the treatment in two weeks
will probably be advisable in the
case of unshucked corn.

ALICE MORGAN.
Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: have
written once before and my letter was in
print. My subject was Florida, now it
is about the man who discovered Florida
1t was Ponce de Leon. He was one Of the
men that went with Columbus on his second
voyage. He was Spanish and was as brave
a soldier as there were in that band. He
conquered the island of Porto Cleo for Spain
Before Ponce de Leon decided where to go
he heard from the Indians, telling him there
were lots of gold and fountain of youth
whose waters would make young forever all
mOrtals who should drink of it, Ponce de
Leon got permission from the king of Spain
to conquer Bimini, that was in 1912. He
sailed in 1913, it was an Easter Sunday that
re sighted land. The way Florida got it's
name was that there were so many beautiful
flowers and then Ponce de Leon lrnded on
Easter Sunday and the Spaniards called it
Pascua Florida, md Ponce de Leon named
it Florida. but he did not find the fountain
or did not find any gold or silver, and he
was very much discouraged and returned to
Porto RIGA. In 1917 Fernandez landed on
the western shore of Florida and was at
taacked by large band of Indians and was
seriously wounded and soon died. So many
voyages had been made until it proved Flor
ida was part Of large continent, but lie
Leon always thought and wrote of it as an
island. De Leon determined to make the
conquest of Florida, 80 he laid out all his
fortune in fitting out two vessels to hear
himself and his companions to Florida. This
was in 1921, the voyage was rough, stoI my
one, but at last the Florida coast was
reached and Il landing made. He carried
with him colonists and domestic animals for
their use. The Spanards had hardly time
to be landed when they were attacked. Many
were killed and the rest forced to retire
to their ships. Ponce de Leon was wounded
by an arrow, soon after reaching Cuba he
died. He was always brave and true SOL
der. Well, as my letter is getting quite

Dear Aunt Julia and All: have been
wondering If you would admit a girl from
the state of North Carolina into your long,
long chain of cousins. I guess ALMOST all
the cousins have heard the song, Coming
Through the Rye" AS I have learned the
origin of this song l want to pass it on
TO other boys and girls. The Rye is a
river in Scotland it is wide and shallow
with stepping stones to cross on. great
many farmers had their dwelling on one
side of the Rye. and their farm on the
other. And the girls would cross the river
to milk in the evening. On their way back
they would have pail of milk in one
hand, and would have to hold their skirts
with the other TO keep them from getting
wet Their skirts We're made of plaid
which they thought a great deal Of. The
boys would meet them coming through the
rye ana KISS tl&m-they being defense less
with their handy full, And rather than
lose their milk or get their skirts wet
they could not do anything but cry. Hence
the lines:
"Gin a body meet body
Comm through the Rye;
Gin body kiss a body,
Need a body cry"
1 will not describe myself this time. for
fear 1 have already broken Aunt Juia's
rules, but will say I will be fifteen the
4th Of May. I will be glad to correspond
with some OF you lads and Iassies. II
see this letter in print will come again. I
hope this long. long chain of cousins will
continue to grow in friendship and love- as
We are commanded. Glove We one an
other.")
Roses may weave q garland,
Friendship may link a chain,
But love alone can form clasp
Unbroken to remain.
Love.
