Mother Brown went to the pantry
and came out with molaSses cookie.
She held it close to the nose of Little
Miss Curiosity. Little Miss Curiosity
tried to back away, but Farmer
Browns Boy held her closely and she
couldn't. Then something delicious In
the way Of an odor tickled her nose.
Oh, my, my. my, how good it was.
Her mouth began to water. Yes. sir,
her mouth began to water. Never had
she smelled anything like that before,
but without knowing anything about
1t she knew it was good. She nibbled
1t. My, it tasted better than it smell
ed! 1t was better than the sweetest
sweet clover she had ever tasted. She
forgot everything that had happened.
She forgot where she was. She for
got to be afraid. Nothing mattered
now but that cookie.
Gently, Farmer Browns Boy put her
down on the floor. She seized the
cookie in her two little black hands
and there she sat nibbling it as fast
as her little jaws could go. She looked
so cute that Mother Brown laughed
Browns Boy wanted. He knew that
Mother Brown wouldn't object to
keeping little Miss Curiosity as pet.
"Well," said he, II guess III take
her out to the barn."
"Why not leave her in here for
awhile?" asked Mother Brown. I'VE
can fix q box with a bed for her in
here"
Farmer Browns Boy chuckled down
inside. 'AlI right" said he, ''if you'll
promise not to let her get out and run
away, we'll try keeping her in here.
I'll fix a bed for her back Of the
stove"
So Farmer Browns Boy fixed a bed
| for her back of the stove and Little
Miss Curiosity, having had so much
excitement and fright, was tired

She didn't know it, but she now had a

said, "Well, you ought to apologize
this minute and Mrs. Stewart said,
mo, Joan. Henry should not have
let the dog dig in your yard" and
Joan said, "Well, Bob didn't have any
reason to cali your husband a liar.
And he can just apologize, and Mrs.
Stewart said, Henry can apologize
first. Tell Bob you're sorry, Henry"
and he said, II will not"
Joan said, apologize. Bob" and I
said, II should apologize to the big

"Who are you calling a bum, you

your words, dizzy, or I'll be over there
after you," and Mrs. Stewart said,
Henry, I'm positively ashamed" and
Joan said, you can't be as mortified
as I am. Bob is acting just terrible"
and so that was the end of that, and
I guess there is law of averages, all
right, on account of when you get in
a scrap with a guy and your wife
takes his side, why his wife comes
along and takes your side. and that is
about the only even break husband

| However, there IL q triteness about
the familiar quotations that gives
them a Dulcinia flavor. or the word is
almost fiippantly spoken. When we
say II hope so" as IL this were but
wish that was of our fitting fancy.
we forget the wonderful germ OF
vitality that exists in the substance
of the word.
There is something in human nature
that is so in accord with the element
Of hope that with 1t wonders can be
accomplished. 1t Is when one gives
up hope existence is hung on a slender
thread that may snap. 1t Is this vital
power that should make every home
maker cling with tenacity to 1t, and
often permit herself to revel in the
hopes she has for her little ones, for
her husbands success, and also for
her own success, too. in stimulating
the hopeful spirit in those with whom
and for whom she lives.
Tonic Quality.
So vigorous is hope that 1t adds a
tonic to existence, courage to en-.
deavors, and stimulus to pursuits. And
while il may seem a passive element.
it can scarcely be that when 1t Is so
compelling in it's effect. People are
willing to work for the things they
hope to get. If, indeed. they did not
have the hope of succeeding in getting
what they work for, they should and
would quit the tasks. TO work with
out hope Is a losing proposition.
Point of View.
Mothers who want to help their
growing boys and girls to accomplish
things in the world must stimulate
them to work with hope. AS soon as
child says, II can't do that sum-"
or whatever Is set before him. there
Is small likelihood of his doing it right.
The idea of II can't" has to be up
rooted or killed by starvation. and
the other phrase, of the same number
of letters, which expresses a domin-
ating power, and that is Il will,
supplant it.
Dynamic Force.
by the hope of success. When these
they will result in the desire to work
to a final completion. Then there is
a dynamic force set in action. And
just so long as work goes on in the
hope and with the expectation of ulti-
mate success 1t seems to have a power
and zest that cannot be Quelled nor
thwarted.
ResOurcefulness.
Such genuine vital hope Is quick
to discover ways and means of inn
provement in methods of work and in
ways Of progress. Otherwise it is a
blind hope, indeed. But even blind
hope can be granted vision. The
matter of importance is to have an
appreciation of the fact that hope is
a real thing and that it Is one of the
marvellous forces of existence. Mothers
should inspire it in children. A hope
full frame Of mind aids health, pro-
notes happiness and stimulates sue
cess. We all recognize hopeful per-
son as a happy one. We can have
such happiness If we but will. Then
life is worth living and its worth is
recognized.

All the time he was talking Farmer
Browns Boy was gently stroking
Little Miss Curiosity. Her heart no
longer thumped so wildly. Somehow
or other she didn't feel so dreadfully
scared. Once more curiosity was TAX

One hundred years after it's dis

placed in the tower OF the church,

A soap may be excellent for a

for the skin. Good compilations are

Much Highway Work Done
By Minnesota During Year
But improvements Hardly Offset
Loss of Gravel by Wear of
Traffic, Babcock Says

The Minnesota Highway depart.
ment has paved 1918 miles,
graded $40 miles and expects to
complete the crawling of $50 miles
of new road before the end of the
year, according to a bulletin re-
ceived by the Herald. The main
tenance division has also graveled
or regraveled 780 miles of high
way. >-..
In spite of this work, Commits
sioner c. M. Babcock says he
doubts that the general condition
of the unpaved roads is as good as
it was a year ago. Besides the
usual loss due to the ever increas-
ing traffic, there was heavy loss
of gravel during the long wet per
iod Last spring. .
The coming of November and
freezing weather usually brings a
.let-up in highway construction
work. The paving program is all
completed, except some shoulder
ing, and most of the 1927 grading
projects are done. In some cases
contractors will be several weeks
more finishing large jobs. Several
contractors have started on con-
tracts to be completed in 1928 and
expect to work during the winter.
Crawling also continues late into
the fall and winter. There is new
>er a total stand-still in modern
road construction.
The new paving is about 80
miles less than built in 1926 and
is much less than built in Wiscon-
sin or Iowa. The Minnesota High
way department is devoting a
large part of it's construction funds
to grading, so that routes which
are intended for paving in the near
future will have ample time to set
tie. -. .-.. ... ..- -..
Much of the paving to be done
during the next few years is on
highways where the permanent To-
cation goes through territory re-
quiring deep cuts and fills. In
such cases it is desirable to give

and two winters to settle. Where

and compacted, cracks and Says

Part of the new crawling has

yards to the mile, is applied. This
not only carries traffic during the

Trial Of Man Charged With
Murder of Bjone Starts
Francis Tucker, Verona, N. D.,
Farmer, Defendant-State Has
Many Witnesses

The LaMoure county district
court at La!Moure, N. D., has OPP
ened the trial of Francis Tucker,
Verona farmer, charged with the
murder of Hans c. Bjone, cashier
Of the Farmers and Merchants
bank at Verona, and the robbing of
the bank Feb. %, last. Tucker is
on trial at LaMoure on a first de-
gree murder charge. The murder
ed man was a nephew of S. c..
Bjone of this city, and was well
known in Sank Centre.
Saturday the Courts time was
occupied mostly by attempts to
verify the states contention that
Tucker had paid 500 on an &C
count owed to B. J. Knudson, Yer
ona feed mill and elevator man
ager, within an hour and a half af-
ter the alleged time of the murder
and robbery. 1t is indicated in the
states examination of witnesses
that the payment of the 500 to
the feed man is decidedly import
ant in the case, because it will, it
is claimed, disclose the where
abouts of the man at known time
and also will show that Tucker had
funds directly following the time
set by state witnesses for the
murder.
Some 60 or 70 witnesses will be
summoned by the state in the &C
tion. These witnesses will tell OF
incidents from which the state will
attempt to weave its case. William

ecutor for the state.
