thrown about everywhere.
Its something like mothers
scrap box where she puts anything
she doesn't need but never knows
when she may" David thought. He
liked it here, though, and he felt
rather fine to be at the tipmost point
of England where the land walled
off into the sea and didn't care about
her appearance or anything so long
as she could reach so far to the
sea.
"Geo, it's great I'm to have this
trip" David began. He felt he
should say something polite, but
Geo waved an arm and said:
"DOn't bother TO say anything.
I'm happy enough that you like me
well enough to call me Geo instead
of by my whole name Geography.
But my Right Hand Man was very
anxious, too, that you should have
this trip"
who is he?' David asked.
"He's a Map person." Geo an
swered. "And this trip will be as
the other one. You'll not meet any
real world people, but you'll just
meet Map people. And you can
choose to 60 one place rather than
another. We know you won't have
time for everything and none of
us will feel sighted. We only want
sou to have a feeling Of friendli.
ness and liking for us all. No ad,
yenturer can go everywrere-they
must do some choosing-but we
want our adventurer to enjoy him
self. Come now. sit on this rock
and have the good things that
they've sent. Some Of them sent
great deal that won't be needed
but they were so anxious to take
part"
as the Right Hand Man coming
to the dinner?" David inquired.
"No, he sent his regrets. You'll
see him later on" Geo said.

A Trick to Try

Have you ever tried to cut an ap-
pie into parts without breaking the
skin? Pass a needle and thread
under the skin for distance of
about an inch-more or less, &C.
cOrding to the size of the fruit, and
Just sufficiently deep to prevent the
mark of the thread being seen.
Continue to insert the needle In
the same hole at which II was pre-.
yiOusly taken out, and so on until
sou have gone around the apple
Then the two ends of the thread
having met, take both Of them In
your hands and draw out, by which
means the apple will be separated
into two parts.
In the same manner you may di
vide II into several parts by simply
altering the course Of the thread.
and yet the rind will remain entire
Present the apple to anyone to peel
and directly the skin Is broken II
will fall to pieces.

Alderman Nalr informed the
council that compensation costs IN
the last month have amounted 20
