This traveler sold the feller what wus kweer in the nut a gold brick one day. He charged him fifty cents fer it an told him he wuz gettin a bargain. Wal, the simple feller cum along bout a week later an sold the traveler sum fish all innercent like. The traveler cum down to the post office and showed them to us sayin he only paid a dollar fer them. Rite then 'we begun to suspect: thet the other feller wuzent ez krazy ez he looked.

'| sailed through the air, and set down +! limb rose more than a hundred A Narrow It was a bright morning near the last of April and the dew was still on the grass. A robin flew down from the bran- ches of a tree overhead where he had been singing his song to the rising sun and commenced his morning feast on the fat dew<worms which he loved so much to make his break- fast upon. . A sly young cat who thought he was a lot smarter than he really was, thought it would be easy to catch the robin for his breakfast, so he start- ed to creep slowly towards the robin. But the robin was a wise one and had chosen a 'wide open space for his feeding ground. When the cat had reached the last clump of high grass behind where it could hide, it gather- ed Its muscles for a spring. The robin had just picked up a fine large worm and was starting to eat it when the cat sprang at it, but was not quite quick enough. Just as it rose in the air the cat grabbed at it and just caught a couple of its tail feathers. The robin was so scared it flew a long way before it resumed its in- terrupted meal.--Lyford 'Johnson, age 12 years. Boys' Naval . The Boys' Naval Brigade has two sections, No. 1 and No. 2 section.

Elias' Garden, About an hour and a half's walk from the lnonastery of Mount Carmel in Syria may be seefi on the summit of a hill a barren plot of ground which is known as Elias' Garden or the Melon Field. a > The Prophet Elias was .one day passing by this place when he saw a man guarding a field of melons. Be- ing hungry, the prophet asked the man to give him one of the fruit. "A melon!" said the man; "I have none. Those things you take for melons are stones."

Polly Tastes a New Kind of Drink. "Oh, dear," exclaimed Polly cross- ly;-for Polly was always cross when she wanted something she couldn't have. Right now Polly wanted a drink so badly her throat was parch- ed. She was a long way from home, and not a pump nor a well was In sight. "I'm certainly thirsty. Dear, I wish--" '""You and your wishes!" laughed a' merry voice, and Gocomeback, the travel elfin, hopped out from behind a tree beside Polly. "What are you wanting this morning? A soda water tree or maybe a lemonade tree?" "Well," laughed Polly, shaking Gocomeback's hand, "I don't care what it is so it will quench my thirst. My throat's almost parched." "Of course, if you don't care what your drink is, suppose you come along with me and I'll let you taste something that's mighty fine," and before Polly knew what was happen- ing she was whisked off her feet, under a great, tail tree. Its straight, smooth trunk ran up into the air about seventy or eighty feet before a single limb grew out. | Then the wide branches spread out [on every side until the very tip-top from the ground. . ny AY an "My, what a tall tree!" exclaimed Polly gazing up into its branches. "Isn't it!®* laughed Gocomeback. "I just bet you can't guess what kind of tree it is, either." Polly shook her head. She had never seen a tree like it before, "Well," sald Gocomeback, strik- ing the trunk of the tree with his magic stick, "This is a cow tree." "A cow tree!" exclaimed Polly. 'Now, Gocomeback, you don't mean "Yes, indeed!" interrupted the lit- A Blood-food Discovered That Entirely Over- comes Anaemic Heretofore it has often been a hopelesa task for a thin-blooded per- son fo gain either strength or weight. Neither food or medicine in many in- stances has beneficial effect. 'What is practically a perfect blood- food, containing such elements as Iron, has at last been produced, and when taken after meals will put new life and vigor into people that have despaired of ever being strong again. This truly wonder-working treat- ment consists of taking two small ted Tablets blood-food sup- plies nourishment, vim, energy-- sends a stream of vigorous, strength- making blood to every nook and tle elfin. "I mean that it's the cow tree of South America, and that it really and truly gives milk," and he rapped once more on the smooth bark, and out spouted a sap that looked for all the world like rich new milk. ~ Gocomeback pulled out a tiny mug from under the reat of the tree and handed it to Polly. Polly caught the mug full of the milky sap and ad it, It tasted 80 good that she drank two mugfuls before she stopped. : "And it not only Iagks like milk, but tastes like it & little," she laugh- ed. '"How wonderful to have a tree like this near you. Why, it wouldn't take nearly so much trouble a cow does, and besides, just think, it wouldn't cost a pemny to keep one in your back yard." "Yes, but you comldn't keep one in your back yard," laughed Go- comeback, "for this tree wouldn't grow in your climate, It takes just the kind of weather they have here to keep it alive and flourishing. The natives certainly love it and are very careful that no harm comes to its trunk. Now, in your country the sap of the maple tree runs in the early spring, but the sap of the cow tree is always ready for the fellow who is thirsty." . "Well," laughed Polly when Go-| the comeback once more set her down where he had found her, "Your won- der grove certainly deserves its name. | I always thought that trees were made for wood and shade, but, dear me, I've learned quite a few things about them." "And that isn't all," laughed Go- comeback. 'I've a few more trees SCHOOL REFORMS URGED UPON THE LEGISLATURE BY MEMBER FOR LINCOLN.
