The jacket of linen is double breasted, and being double below the waistline' could be spoken of as being “double breasted.” (Copyright, 1024.) Plant Life in District of Columbia BY :: E.Vl—;l—fls.‘.

Instantly rmer Brown's Boy looked up, for this time that whistle seemed to come from | above him. Sitting in the top of a tree | on one "side of the barnyard ~was a plump bird withfa streaked, brownish back, bright vellbw beneath and with a Scent on its breast. Even as Farmer Brown's Boy looked at him_ he opened his bill and forth came that mysterious whistle, clear and sweet For a full minute Farmer Brown's Boy stared as if he were looking at | something he couldn't or wouldn't be- lieve. Then a light br over his freckled face, and he began to chuckle. “As 1 live, it is Carol the Meadow Lark!" he exclaimed. “No wonder 1 | couldn't ‘find any one hiding. He cer- tainly has played a great joke on us. 1 don't suppose he has done it for a joke, but it is a joke just the same. I wonder if he will answer if T whistle to' him?" Softly Farmer Brown's Boy whistled, Carol the Meadow Lark turned his head as if listening. He didn't reply at once. Farmer Brown's Boy kept perfectly still, After perhaps a couple of minutes Carol whistled. A moment later he spread his wings and flew down to the Green Meadows. Almost at once Farmer Brown's Boy heard Carol's own beautis fully whistled song. Farmer Brown's Boy went to hunt up Farmer Brown and tell him what-he had found out. “If it had been Kitty the Cat- bird or Brownie the Thrasher I wouldn't { have been 50 much surprised,” said he. “Both are very good mimics Had it been Mocker the Mocking Bird I wouldn't have been surprised at all. But it is hard to believe, even now, that Carol the Meadow, Lark is the one who has been fooling us all this time, Now I think of it, that whistle of ours is in a way some- thing like Carol's own notes. 1 suppose he has heard us 6o many times that without knowing it he has learned our whistle. We'll always know Carol now when we hear him, for I don't suppose there is another Meadow Lark anywhere around who uses that whistle:” Farmer Brown's Boy was right. All through the summer Carol came often to that tree in barnyard and whistled. Farmer Brown's Boy always whistled back to him, and they became the best of friends. ~ (Copyright, 1924, by T. W.

And the chances are, you know, that it need not be attained at the expense of “pound foolishness,” either. It may be, though, that you are not penny wise at all; in which case you are just the average person of twhom it is said that “the hardest part 5 the dollar to dccount for is the at 5 cents.” Pernaps the best way to eliminate small “leaks” I8 to pay as many bills as possible, even those for small pur- Chases, by check. The check is not Unly a record of the petty cash which you spena merely for personal ex- Penses and which you might other- wise forget,‘but It serves as a re- ceipt. The check stubs are conven- fent for jotting down the amount and date of the purchase, too—a prac- tice quite easy to follow out as you wait for yeur change *pr for your ackage. P harge accounts -are dublous ad- vantages for persons who are trying to check up on their penny losses. For the tendency of one naturally inclined to careless expenditures of small sums is to say “Charge it, please,” and then promptly to forget the matter. However, it you do have a charge account, save the slips on whidh your purchases are noted, and use them to help make up bookkeep- ing records. Perhaps, though, you object to all such ' methods on the grounds that they give you a haunting sense of playing hide-and-seck with the elu- sive penny. In this case, your best plan will probably be to decide on what your petty cash expenditures for a week ghould be, and io draw a check for that amount on Satur- day or Monday. This plan will pro- vide you with “spending money” for a week, and you do not have to check ;/he amounts you spend up_against ‘our bdget, or to worry where the pennies go—that is, so long as you do not exceed the amount you have allowed yourself. More important, however, than all these mechanical means which make for efficiency in penny matters, is your mental attitude toward the small sum. If you consider a penny, a nickel, a dime as a negligible amount, you can expect to have “leaks” in your budget. Remember that the most valuable use of the accounts you keep is that of checking up agalnst a systematic budget. That does not mean you should Jet the “balancing bogey” haunt you into a continual chase after the last penny; but merely that your budget should act as a pattern for spending, and that your accounts, if kept with reasonable accuracy, will show you how successful you have been in following that pattern. . . Huckleberry Pie. Line a ple plate with good pastry and pile three cupfuls of washed and joyous fete held during the entire day and evening in all the streets and public places. The merry danc- ing on the cobblestones, with shop- keepers and their wives auternating n tending store. or dancing together while one of the children remained behind the counter, was fascinating to watch, in the light of hundreds of brightly colored lanterns strung up and down the curbs. Just at dusk I happened to be standing at a street corner when a porter in smock and cap came up and began lighting one of the gay paper lanterns. To my surprise, instead of reaching in and lighting the candle inside the lantern, he touched his ch to ce ‘of coarse cotton ng which was hanging from the end lantern of @ long row. He then quietly walked away. With great in- terest and curiosity T watched that string to see what happened, and so chanced to discover one of the clever schemes for which the French are famous. The tiny blaze ran up the string quickly, disappeared over the metal rim of the lantern—which miracu- lously became dighted within—and then dropped down, still blazing, only to run up to the mext lantern and light that! All the way down the block ran the little flame, lighting each lantern in turn, automatically, until it dropped from the st one and quickly burned out. The lanterns had a | been strung on a wire stretching the entire length of the block, and by this ingenious device the entire row was lighted from one end! I later questioned one of the porters as to how the string was arranged to pro- duce this result and he told me that it was merely looped once around each candle-wick, and tied loosely to the wire at each end of the row. When one end of the string was un- tied and lighted, the flame ran up to the candle and the burning of the loop was sufficient to light the wick. The burning end of the string then dropped _down, ran up to the next loop, and so on. Why the paper lan- tern did not ignite I did not under- stand, and do not yet; but the scheme worked like a charm, and I gazed in admiration. I have néver tried the plan out in operation, as a string of colored elec- tric lights is easier; but I suggest it for lawn parties, outdoor fetes and similar occasions when electric lights may not be available. What Toiiay Means to You| BY MARY BLAKE. Cancer. Today's plapetary aspects -are neither distinctly favorable nor un® favorable. It would, therefore, be ad- visable, while avoiding all risk ideals or speculative business, to devote your attention only to regular daily duties of a routine character. Great care should be taken not to do any- thing that might jeojardize health f conditions and regular habits should alone be indulged. Avold all excesses ; —either mental or physical. A child born today will enjoy nor- mal health, although this result will only be achieved by a proper system of nutrition. It should be allowed as much outdoor exercise as possible and compelled to participate in sports, so as to give it, what it otherwise will not possess, courage when necessary to take defeat, and a becoming mod- esty in the face of victory, If this method of training be adopted, it will have an agreeable disposition and an even character. If today is your birthday you cause much unhappiness to your friends, as you appear to have a grudge against the world, and are dissatisfied with conditions that exist. Life will alway8 be, to a great extent, what you yourself make iz. The cheerful man makes a cheerful world, the gloomy man a gloomy one. You will usually find your own temperament reflected in the dispositions of those about you. If you are yourself querulous, you will find them so; if you are unforgiving and uncharitable to them, they will pe the same to ou. Y°If you .would be at peace with others, and insure their respect, you must have regard for their per- sonality. ~ Every person has pe- culiarities of manner and character, as well as pecullarities of form and feature. You must have forbearance in dealing with them, as you expect them to have forbearance in dealing with you. You may not be conscious of your own pecullarities, yet they exist nevertheless.

But she was a city-bred girl, and didn’t like the small town ways. She was lonesome and bored. and she nagged her husband until she made him throw up his job, and go ba with her to her mother's. He has been out of work now for months and | is miserable and discouraged, and it doesn’t take any prophet to foretell | that marriage is going on the rocks. “Now, this girl's mother could have eaved it if. when her daughter | first began talking about coming back home, she had written her firmly. ‘Forget it. ,You have no right to ruin your husband's chances. Stay in the home he has made for you and adapt yourself to the péople among whom your lot is cast.” “If the mother had had backbone enough to do that, the girl would | have got over her homesickness. She would have got interested in her new home and all would have gone well with her and her husband, for there is nothing like knowing that a thing is finally and definitely settled to make us accept it and make.the best of it. | &] HAVE always been glad that when I got married I went a thousand | miles away from home to live. Of course, it threw me oht on my vwn and I neatly died of longing for mother, but I had to stand on my own feet because I had no one to lean on. “I didn’t know a thing about housework or sewing and there were days when T could have made Niobe, doing her well-known cryving stunt. look like a picture of joy compared to'the tear act I put on when I found out how | hard it was to make bread that wasn't a menace to life or to iron a shirt. But there was no one to tell my troubles to, so I wiped my eyes and kept plugging along until T learned how to pe a first-class cook and washlady. | “And one time when we struck a &treak of bad luck T went out and g0t a job rather than write home for money and ask mother for help. “There haven't been many happier marriages than ours, and when I told my husband the other day about this girl who has come running home to mother, just because she didn’t like the place her husband lived in. he said: ‘I am glad I married a woman who is a better sport than that.’ ‘But I said, ‘You had better be thankful that you married a woman who had a mother who had a backbone instead of being a bag of mush' For I had the blessing of having had a Spartan mother, who would never let us lie down on our jobs. She made us finish whatever we started, even matrimony. “Mother love and mother sympathy are the most beautiful and consoling things in the world, but they also are the most dangerous things and do more than any other one thing to break down the'morale of the young. When our sons and daugters are in trouble they do not need to be pitied. What they need is to be braced up to do their duty and to have fresh courage breathed into them. “And the average mother hasn't the nerve and grit to do this. She can’t be cruel to be kind, and that is why there are so many failures in the | world. They can all come home to mother.” DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1924.)
