Professor Irving and his small son were constructing a magnificent kite in the cool shade of the orchard trees. “Now, son, our kite is finished all but the tail—we need something bright and fiyaway for the end of our tail— suppose you go up to the house and ask Mrs, Keppy for a bit of red ribbon ! or tape or something.” Sammy darted away among the trees, ‘dodged under the fence and made a detour through the hayfleld. Professor Irving whistled over his task, and when it was completed he threw himself back on the grass and, pipe in mouth, dreamily watched the clouds. “I have gotted a fiyaway, daddy,” an- nounced Sammy’s voice. Professor Irving sat up, yawned, and in the very act paused with his mouth wide open. He stared at the trophy in Sammy’s grimy hand. “What is that?” he thundered at last. “It's daddy.” “Where did you get it?” sternly. “I found it,” evasively. “Where?” “Garden!” “Well, of all the amazing things!” commented his father, taking the long silken curl that clung to his fingers in the most annoying manner. He smiled as he folded the curl carefully and tucked it into his note- book. “Sir!” Here was a peppery tempered voice ! indeed. The professor turned mild eyes upon the speaker. She had advanced upon them from behind the trees, and she was a veri- table Goldilocks, albeit her hair was & shower of red-golden curls that hung far below her waist. She wore a faded lawn frock, and about her neck was tied a huge bath towel. Professor Irving had struggled to his feet, his puzzled face partaking ol the embarrassment that clouded: his son's. “What do you mean?” he asked. “What has Sammy done?” “That!” she pointed tragically to the curl. Slowly Sammy's father opened the | book, took out the dainty silken curl and regarded it with bewildered eyes. “My curl, if you please!” she de- manded haughtily. “I am very sorry for what Sammy has done,” said the professor gently. “You see, we have been making a kite, and I sent him up to ask my house- keeper for a bit of rihhon for the end a pretty curl—er, flyaway, -:n*-m»*wm-wm | usurping nesting places. { but is noisy and vituperative.

And the professor neglected to re- turn that curl to Rose Allen. In fact, he kept it always. “For,” said he aft- rd, “a man may keep a curl of his wife's hair!” ‘Even if he doesn’t use it as a fly- away,” added Rose, as she hugged lit- tle Sammy. (Copyright, 1915, by the McClure Newspa- paper Syndicate.) Those Pestiferous Sparrows. Mr. Dearborn says the English spar- row reduces the number of some of, our most useful and attractive native birds, such as bluebirds, house wrens, purple martins, tree swallows, cliff swallows and barn swallows, by de- stroying their eggs and young and by It attacks the robin, wren, redeyed vireo, cat- bird and mocking bird, causing them | to desert parks and shady streets of towns. Unlike our native birds, whose place it usurps, it has no song, It de- files buildings and ornamental trees, shrubs and vines with its excrement and with its bulky nests. Original Turnpike. It was formerly the custom to ob- tain the funds to maintain principal thoroughfares by collecting a toll from those using them. Pikes or gates were set across the roads by the keep- er or toll collector. To prevent people who traveled his road from passing without paying the toll he was armed with a pike, a long- handled stick with a sharp iron head. This was put across as a barrier, and when the toll was paid it was turned aside to permit the carriage or wagon | to pass on its way. Hence the name turnpike. Full Skirt. Now that full skirts are actually showing, it will please most women to find that the full, circular skirt is here. After all, the circular skirt is the most graceful of all and goes par ticularly well with the redingote and other basque and moyen age walst effects now in vogue.

Therefore, as the task is one within the power of all, let us carry it out well and cheerfully. The girl who goes through the day with a kind word and a cheery smile for all whom she knows has much the same good effect on others as has sun- shine. A warm, real smile, a friendly glance of sympathy, are the things that cost no money, yet how powerful they are in bringing courage and trust into life. At best, life has hard moments and difficult days, 80 each of us should do what we ‘can to brighten them or oth- ers; by so doing we also brighten them for ourselves.
