A utility bag which answers the pur- | pose of a laundry and shoe bag, with two other pockets for various articles, will be found very convenient when traveling. This bag can be taken from the frunk or suit case and bung up without disturbing its contents. Cretonne is perhaps the best mate- rial for such a bag. It would require two pieces for the foundation of the bag. One piece should be a yard long and twenty-one inches wide, the other a yard and one-fourth long and twen- ty-two inches wide. Before joining the two strips attach pockets to the longer piece. Turn up one-fourth yard | at the bottom for the flap of the laun: dry bag. Slightly round it and bind the raw edges with tape. When the bag is completed this flap will snap or button over the back of the bag. Across the bottom after the flap has been measured off attach shoe pockets, Bind a long piece of material with tape across one side, then lay it into four box plaits, dividing them by means of a stitched piece of tape; also stitch a piece of tape across the bottom after the pockets are basted in place. Above these pockets. attach" another bag the width of the strip underneath and any desired depth. Bind top edge with tape divided into two sections and stitch fape acorss the bottom. Now. lace the long strips to a depth of five inches with satine and stitch a casing for double drawstrings. Stitch the two pleces together on the right { side and bind with tape. Snap the flap at the bottom over the back of the bag. Candy Apples on the Stick. Select nice apples that are not too large. Mount them on thin sticks meat skewers will do.

Once upon a time the Three E. Children went with a little friends to | visit a chicken farm. It was just after Easter and there were several hundrei of tiny, fluffy little chisks runaing around in.the big yard. They wel¢ so tame that the children were able to catch as many as they wished and to hold them in their hands while they fed them with bread crumbs, Ethel wanted to take one Home, but Edward told her she had better not for he said he knew rabb'is ware very fond of little chickens and Le guessed their new pet rabbit. Eve, would make a meal of cne very quickly if it was taken home. So Ethel gave it a parting pat and let it down with the others, and then ran off to see the bigger chickens After they had looked about all they want- ed, the man who owned the farm said he had an incubator that was hateh- ing some chickens and asked the children if they didn't want to ge into the incubator house and wgifa some chicks hatch. They were deo- lighted and went into a large build- ing where on all sides were queer looking cases with glass on the froat side. He took them to one end of Some people are very much concern. ed about their possessions, while all the time the only things that it will ever be possible for them to own are scarcely worth having. Because, after all, the only things that belong to you are the things that you are big enough to love and appreciate, not the things that you can pay money for. To be sure you can go out and pay money for chairs and tables, for coats and diamond sunbursts, and they will belong to you after a fashion. But in the exd it's all a matter of chairs an tables, isn't it? x Not so with the ticket to a concert or the price of a book. You can buy your way into a violin recital or pay money for a poem. But the man or woman to whom the poem truly belongs, and for whom it was meant, is the man or woman who loves it and understands it.' And once having that sort of a possession no ope can take it away from you. "I get to the opera once a year," said a woman who is not often able to meet E CHILDREN AND THE te eri Tans po : the building where a big incubator | stood filled with eggs laid on long! trays, As the children stood looking at] e eggs one of them moved just a le and then from one side to the other and the man told them to | watch it very cavefully. It rolled! from side to side and suddenly at one | end the shell began to break and in a minute a little fluffy head came out' at the opening. Boon more of the! eggs begaii to bob and other chickens | came out into the world. i The children thought this was: wonderful and wanted to Watch awhile longer but when they saw the | aan take the chicks out of the incu-| bator and put them in a box that he] called a brooder, they wefe all once] interested to see what kind of a home the little chicks were going to! have. we When they got to the brood house | they found it very warm and filled | with boxes where the chickens were put to be kept warm and dry until | they were large enough to care for | themselves with the larger chickens. | By this time Edna said it was time | to go home and they thanked the! man and ran home to tell the rest of the family all about the great day they had had. i grand opera prices, "but the opera is mine all the year. It bel to me, not to the people who have season tick- ets and sit in the orchestra circle and the boxes and go as often as they wish, unless, perchance, they, too, go because they understand and love the music." Bo what is the use of wasting time envying people thelr p fons? Let them roll along in their autos and lean back in their furs. It's yours to look at them and laugh if yours is the capacity for owning one fine thing they can't buy with their money. "The furs," you may say to them, "are yours--! stenciled line of that rugged tree, sketched against the gray of a winter sky is mine, all mine be- cause I have eyes to see it." , So why get excited about possessions, after all? The big possessions of life, the things that are most worth having are within yourself, and no matter how slim your purse the world always holds fair riches that are made especially for Fou if you kilow how to own them. A woman once moved to the country from the heart of a busy city. "But I miss the flowers so," she wrote back. "Flowers! 'What, flowers in crowded streets 7' you ask. "Why, the flowers in the shop win- dows, for whenever I wanted to," she explained, "I could walk a block or two and feast my eyes -on some florist's window. They were always there the year round; always where I could see them, and they belonged to me as much as to anybody." Taste a Guide to Health. Modern Investigation has shown that no article of food is good for a person if he dislikes it. If a child has prac- tically a fixed notion that he does not like eggs they will do him no good and may do him harm.

A pleasing form of address that was common in the seventeenth century has gone quite out of use, probably because of its restriction to "inferior persons." The "Mr." was then a pre fix to which unly gentlemen were en- titled, and among the Puritan fathers of New England the deprivation of the right to be so addressed was inflict- ed as a punishment. "Goodman" or "Goodwoman," by contraction "Goody," was the address of thuse low in the so- clal scale. The term is preserved in some old songs.
