There was once a miller who lived on the bank of a little river called the Dee, He was very poor, and had to work hard, but still he was happy. He owned a little piece of land on which his mill was situated, and every 'evening after his work was done, he walked home to his little cottage,.where his wife was waiting for him. His children always ran out to meet him when they saw him coming. This miller was happy because God blessed him and gave him a wife and children to love him, When he was working he always sang a little song, and this is what he sang: "I envy nobody---no, not I, And nobody envies me." One day as he was Working and singing his little song, a visitor came to him. This visitor was handsome- ly dressed, and rode on a beautiful horse, with attendants to wait on him and praise him. He was the King, and was very rich and power- ful. But he was not happy, because he had so many cares and worries that he could not rest. He said to the miller, "Miller, how is it that you are so happy though you are poor and have to work hard?" The miller answered, "I am happy because 1 can work and earn my bread ,and I owe no man, and I have my wife and children to love me." The king bade the miller farewell, and turning, said, "Do not sing any more that mo one envies you, for I would rather be a'happy miller by the Dee than the king on his throne." --Lillian Potts, aged 13 years. . Ln pina A Gallant Rescue. In a narrow street crowds of peo- ple stood looking wup at a burning building. The fire-engines had no. come, but as it was thought no .one was in the house, no great excitement was felt. Suddenly a woman's voice rang out, "Save my children; save my poor little children." , "There they are," she cried, as a girl's frigh- tened face appeared at a window. Just at that moment a boy forced himself through the crowd until he stood, white and breathless, before the burning house. "Stand away there," a burly policeman sald to him, laying a heavy hand on his shoulder. "Are they out?" erie@-Jack. "Are who out?" 'answered the man. "My sister and two brothers on the third floor." "No, 1 fear not; mo one has come out that I know of." Again came the woman's cry, "Save my children." "I'll do my best, Jack. "Wait a minute, my boy, the fire- engines will soon be here, and we will save them all right." "Wait; no, I cannot wait; I must save them mother," said + now." rain.) , Copyright, 1920, by J. H.

"Oh, dear me," sighed Peggy as she sat on the sands, watching the waves wash up over the shore. "What a dreadful lonesome life it must be to live under the sea all the time." | "What mekes you think that?" asked a merry voice, and Peggy look- ed up to see a tiny crab standing in front of her laughing merrily, "Sach ok idea to have! Just then Jack spied a cord hang- ing from the window of the house next door. He snatched off his coat, and befoze anyone could prevent it, he was swinging high above their heads, going up hand over hand. He tried to keep cool, and to think he was only in the gymnasium, but his head swam, and the heat made him sick and dizzy, but still he kept on. The crowd below murmured cheers traveled I'd see so many things' to stop me I'd never get anywhere," laughed Mr. Crab when Peggy asked | him why he walked backwards. They soon arrived at the beauti- ful coral castle, and the king and queen greeted Mr. Crab and Peggy. Peggy thought them both perfectly beautiful with their long, shiny, sil- ver tails end their beautiful faces. They called the royal prince and prin- cess and their cousins and aunts. They all crowded around Peggy, who sat very still upon Mr. Crab's back, Peggy had never seen anything on land to compare with the beauty of this wonderful land under the sea. Grasses of every hue waved Hke tall trees above her head, and in and out among them darted wonderful color- el fish. Just like the birds flying in Peggy's land, they sailed through the water above Peggy's head. The coral castle was ail of beauti- ful pink coral with hundreds of tall coral spires pointing high into the water. Seaweeds and gorgeous sea flowers blossomed everywhere Even the sands looked like jewels glitter- ing in the sunlight. Peggy thought the prince was the most charming little boy she had ever seen, and when he called her to play with him she forgot all about her to Mr. Crab. When she turn- ed around to look after him she found herself once more sitting on TUESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1920. BRITISH WHIG as he neared'the window. Would he reach it? Would the rope hold? Now he was quite close, and the crowd held its-breath in silence. They watched him swing towards the win- dow ledge, then spring from the rope and grasp it tightly, and the next minute he was through the open window and jaside the burning house. "Come, little sister, there is not a moment to lose," he cried as he seized Jim's hand and caught the bably in his arms. Clinging together, they groped their way to the door, and then through leaping flames and biinding smoke, began to feel their way down the stairs. Sometimes the flames almost reached them, and at times it seemed as if they could hold out no longer, as if they must all die in the terrible (flames. But they struggled on, add at last they reached the street in safety. Placing Baby Arthur, unharmed, in his mother's arms, Jack fell fainting at her feet, while the crowd burst into ringing cheers for the noble boy and his brave rescue--Wiliam Campbell, aged 13 years.

At the end of the day the surface «of the earth cools quicker than the air above it. If the ground has enough cold and if the air has enough dampness, then dew is form- ed.' All the dew which we see is not the same. Some dew is pushed up by the roots of plants. On a windy day there. is no dew as the cool stratum of air moves along and there is not enough cold to make dew. On an exjra cold day the dew is crystal- lized and is called boar frost.--Noel Brunswick, Macdonald School. The Winds of the World. In the great oceans of the world we find the water moving in a sys- tematic manner and we call this system of movement ocean currents. The Gulf Stream, the Equatorial Current, the Japan Current and others may be compared to great rivers in the ocean. There are great- er rivers of air in the atmosphere than there are rivers of water in the ocean. The river of air in which we live extends fom Florida to the North Pole. It circles ground the earth from west to east. It is called the great westerly wind system. In the northern hemisphere there is an- other great river of air which ex- tends in width from latitude 35 to the equatorial line, It runs from east to west. It is called the north- east trade wind. In the southern hemisphere we have two similar rivers, one extending from latitude thirty to the south pole, éalled the great westerly wind because it flows from west to east as in the northem hemisphdre and the other from lati- tude 30 to the equator, which flows from east to west: and is called the south-east trade Wind.--Contributed.

Stiff Neck, Lumbago Aches and Pains of Rheumatism Sometimes Almost Unbearable. There are weather conditions that make rheumatism worse. They are not the same in the cases of all per sons. Some victims of this disease suffer more in dry warm weather than in moist cold weather, but all suffer more or less all the time. The cause of rheumatism is an ex- cess of uric acid in the blood, affect- ing the muscles and joints. Hence the blood must have attention for permanent results in the treatment of this disease. Hood's Sarsaparilla has given en- tire satisfaction in thousands 'of cases. Do not fail to give it a trial. If a laxative is needed, take Hood's Pills--they don't gripe.
