natural thing in the world for a

anything to get the child to eat

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
/. What would you do to a girl
who would not accept anything.
such as drinks, cookies, ice cream
or anything they serve at parties?
I think that ] am girl that
should not go, but am forced and
leased to go. Please correct me
and tell me what to do. When ]
am at peoples homes and they
offer me things, always refuse.
Don't you think that l am ter.
rible?
2. Also what would be a good
suggestion for a gift to a sweet.
heart? JUDY.
1. Are you spoofing me, or just
trying to be ''temperamental?" II
you do not wish to eat or drink
anything that you are offered at
parties, you needn't do so, If you
refuse in a gracious way. OF
course, such steady refusal as you
confess to would not, should
think, make you overwhelmingly
popular with your hostesses, who
may begin to think that you con-
slider the food Is poisoned. How
ever, If you are so popular that
you are "teased" and forced to
go to parties, you are undoubtedly
one of those fortunate people who
can get away with" this kind of
thing. AS a general rule. how
ever, it is fairly unattractive. Per-
haps you had better learn the
gentle art of nibbling! Just for
appearances sake!

Fashioned of printed ging-
ham, percale, linen or the popu-

choice of color and design with
which to combine white or har-

our heads somewhere is the notion
that we ought to be a little lem

our heart is in the right place
and that others should under.

covered both towns. He would
prepare copy for one paper in the
morning, hand it in and then rush
over to the adjoining town on
horseback, prepare his copy for the
other sheet mount his horse and
rush back. He was a character in
himself. His name was Frank j.
Mead. He was a genius of parts,
a man of wonderful versatility and
ability. The wagons caught his
eye and he trailed after them,
quiered the occupants about their
trip and destination and made a
sketch of the wagon with the cook
stove in it. The next morning IAN

Der that he remarked: 81 don't
need to ask you where you are
going. There are only two places
where one can go at the present
time, Sank Centre and hell"
When and where Frank Mead
ate and slept was always a pro-
found mystery to me for no one
ever saw him engaged in either
occupation, but he always had a
big black bottle in evidence which
he frequently requisitioned for use.
The young soldier reporter took a
great fancy to me and warm
friendship sprang up between us
that continued up to his death,
many years later.
The trip occupied 81 days, a dis
lance of little over 200 miles,
but it must he borne in mind that
the oxen We're grass fed, with no
grain, whatever being fed on the
trip. We proceeded about two
miles an hour, driving about four
hours when we would stop and out
span our oxen, and when they
were rested and refreshed the
journey would be resumed for an
other four hours when we would
again go into camp and make
things snug for the night.
When we reached St. Cloud we
unwisely took the timber road for
Sank Centre expecting to cut off
several miles of the journey, but
really considerable time was lost
for the road consisted of a. single
track worn hub deep by, constant
travel. Wind was constantly
blowing trees and limbs across the
track, which had to be cleared
away before we could proceed. We
mired down every mile or two of
the way and we were 10 days get
ting through distanceof less than
60 miles. i
After leaving St. Cloud, we
travelled through a wilderness most
of the rest of the distance, Set
tiers cabins were few and far be-
tween, ruins of domiciles that had
been destroyed by the savages a
few years before were scattered
here and there, grim reminders of
that awful tragedy. Small focks
of deer crossed our way almost
every hour of the day; once
remember a huge black bear dis
puted our passage and we had to
halt our journey until his majesty,
bruin, leisurely made way along
the road till he came to an open
ing and numbered away into the
