THE cook found the bread-sponee
that Mrs. John had set for her bak-
ing. and fire in the stove and every
thing, and he couldn't resist putting
the bread into pans and baking it.
The next thing he thought of was
the king. He wanted the king TO

where Daddy is now. In Yum Yum

"Thieving, ! call it," cried Mother
Goose. 1T wasn't the cooks bread

Goose.

In this season when the first colds
of the year are likely to make their
appearance, it is pretty good idea
to give the youngsters list of
"Eon'ts" and be sure they heed them.
The Jones' of Anytown were a bit
careless, like most people, but it's
good plan to follow these rules
with either little Mary or Billy if
they have colds:
Don't let them kiss anyone.
Teach them to cover their mouth
and nose when they sneeze.
