Why not have a debate? The woman suffrage question is a mighty interest- ing topic and something every woman should know about. Mrs. R., Aunt Jule and A Dreamer are making great strides for woman's rights, and they are all right, too; but in order to interest another class I think a debate on “What has the So- cfal Corner done for me?” would be an Interesting topic. I also hope to see the domestic de- partment hold its own, for there are new readers and writers all the time, and many fine recipes have been pub- lished and saved by members. We can hardly afford to lose this department FRANK. Moosup, FOR THE HAREM-SCAREM SUIT.

The road lay. across a rough, hilly country. And in those days the traveler was brave, indeed, who would travel the roads after nightfall. $5, night having overtaken Robert and his uncle Jack, they stopped at a wayside tavern for the night. “Well,” gaid the tavern keeper, “what will you have for: supper?” ‘mething good to eat and drink,” said Jack, “Will you have some tea?” . of all things for you to ask to talk Do vou ! No tea for me! me vl What, with the taxation on | and other stuff! No! Bring me | some cider!” “And the boy “Oh, give ifm wiet he wants—now hurry up! After cating supper they went into | the big Fall, where two large fires were ning and looked very cheerful and comfortab| round the fireplaces sat four men. Twe of them greeted Un- cle Jack, The other two men were strangers in that part of the country. One was from London, with a strong Cickney accent. The other was the new tax ccllector, sent from Boston, The two men who greeted Jack Brown were men who worked for t tavern keeper. Both were coarse, clownish fellows and kept casting vgly glances at the tax collector. All seemed glad to see a newcomer. The host passed around apples, nuts and cider; and soon the talk became more general. At last Rob's eyes were closed and he was fast in tne land of dreams, where_apples, cider and nuts seemed to be dancing before his eyes. He triea hard to catch them when—crash! over he went on the floor. “All right, lad. Nothing hurt!” It sounded like his uncle's voice, but it seemed to be miles away. “He's had too much cider,” he heard a voice say. Someone else was talk- ing, " too. “You say you saw your mother's ghost?" was all ho heard, for his uncle spoke up then, good and sharp: “Hush! The laddie will hear you and he has just buried both father and mother.” But Robert was wide awake now with a terrified look i1 his eyes. His uncle turned to his host and asked him for a light and requested to be shown where he was to sleep. Then, taking the poor frightened child in his arms, he followed the landlord upstairs to bed. The following morning they were up at sunrise, and took leave of their friends of the night before, Sunset found them at Grandmother Brow homestead. She cried and kissed Rob and told him that she and Uncle Jack would love him now. Aft- er a few days Robert became more contented and loved his grandma and Uncle Jack both dearly. The homestead stood in a_clearing with woods on all sides. Near the house was a small graveyard, with a few headstones to mark the resting place of those that were buried there, In one end of the yard was a hollow tree in which an old hoot owl lived; and he would spend his time at night hooting. The country people in those days were very superstitious—much more so than we of the twentieth century. They were fond of telling about see- ing hobgoblins and ghosts and even of seeing an’ apparition of some dear departed. Now, Grandmother Brown had an old dame that lived with her and help- ed with the work; and she was very fond of talking about spirits she had seen walking in the graveyard at night. One day, when Robert was in the kitchen, he.,’isked old Mollie to tell him a story. Story telling was her delight. So one story after an- other was told. Finally, she began to tell a story about the old tree in the graveyard and the hoot owl, And she ended the story in this W “And every night the owl changed into 2 hobgoblin, and he walks With your grandfather’s ghost!” If his grandmother or uncle had been around they would not have let | Old Mollie tell such a 'story to the child, ' knowing how they would frighten and terrify him. But old| Mollie thought that him, and did not notice the look of horror on his face. If she had, she would have been very sorry, for she was a kind old lady, ; “Robert, why don’t yoy go upstairs to bed? It is an hour after your bed- time.’ “Oh, Granny! sobbed Rob. “What's that?” seid Uncle Not go to bed! Why, you nev make a man. ‘Barly to bed and 1 don‘t want to go,” Jack. wiil early to rise will make you healthy, wealthy and wise’ So up to bed you go!” Robert’s chamber was just under the attic. In those days there was no plastering, so one could see the broad | beams that were overhead. From the window you could see the moonlight cast its beams on the headstones of the graves. “Grandma, please move my bed over to this corner,” said Robert. “I don’t like the mooniight to shine in my eyes.” So the trucklebed wa: the room; and at la tucked up in bed “Good night,” and sleep. But what was that noise? Bang! Bang!! Bang!!! Oh, it was dread- ful, the way it banged! Robert screamed with all his might: “Unc Grandma! Mollie! Oh, dear “What is it, child?” said Uncle Jack, coming into the room. “Hear it, uncle. It's hobgoblins and ghosts walking up stairs. Mollie said 0. 1am so afraid!” and Robert trem- bled Tike a leaf. Jack Brown stood still, with a on_his face. “What nonsense, Robert” he said; but if old Molile had been anywiiere within reach that moment, I am afraid that Jack Brown would have had something to say to her. Still the banging went on and Rob- ert kept crying. : “Mother, I em going upstairs to see what all that noise is about,” sald Jack. In the middle of the attic lay an old grindstone. And running back and forth was a large gray squirrel, The grindstone was just balanced 'right, for every time the gray squirrel ran around, it would hit the floor, and, of course, made a dreadful racket. In the corner of the attic was & small neap of walnuts left to dry; and the window being open Mr. Squirrel smelt the nuts and climbed the tree which stood close up to the house. When Jack Brown saw this gray ghost he could do nothing but laugh for & moment. But he crossed the room and shut the window, then, catching this disturber of the peace, he carried him downstairs to show to Robert. “Here he is—your hobgoblin and grandfather's ghost! You did not think he would look like this, did you, child?” Uncle Jack was latighing so he could hardly speak. After that time no one could ever frighten Robert with tales of hobgoblins or ghosts, wheeled across Grandma Robert tried to frown _— ond thought I found that would not prove pleasing, as we all wish to keep others guessing “who is who?” and I was sure to know Glenwood as my neighbor, is an old resident of Col- chester and dear old lady who owns property there now, and is well ac- quainted with many.
