Sir Joshua Reynolds Makes Silhouettes

The "Burn" W'here the wee "burn" goes winding its way to the Pea, Down hillside, and roadside with laughter and song, Of the moon in the pools, and the wind in the tree, And the mist on the moors, as it hurries along, I'll build me a house, and by night and by day, Tho voice of the water will sing to mo still, Where the mountains are bathing their feet in the bay, And the white waves are drenching the skies of the hill.

can use as soon as you get into the water. . , A good stroke for the beginner is the variation known as the "trudgeon" or "double overarm" stroke. Strange as it may seem, the first steps of swimming can be learned best, not in deep water, but on dry land! A piano stool, or a kitchen bench that allows for easy play of aims and legs, makes a first-class ":-vimming pool" for the beginner.

for the hoys. She found them however, and opened the envelope. The boys were crowded around her so tight, that she said, "Please brothers sit down and I will read ft aloud." So they sit down, and Marie read the letter. It said: Dear lar.'cT" . 1 suppose when you ai Uis letter you will wonder who Is wrhiT; to you. I will satisfy you now. I am the daughter of the Mayor. As I passed by your house two days ago I saw your brothers working hard in the field, and I inquired of them where they lived, and why they worked so hard, and if they had any relatives. I am going to invite myself for dinner tomorrow. Yours, truly. Mayor's daughter. P. S. My name is Florence. Please call me by my first name. I will be there tomorrow 12 o'clock sharp . Florence. The. children stared at one another till Marie broke the silence. What shall we have for dinner. Oh I know said Marie, "I will take that fivo dollar bill I found and buy something fit for, a Mayor's daughter.

So Marie went for her hat and started. In half an hour she came back with, a large chicken, potatoes, sweet pc-Tafoes, fruit, and a cook book. Marie said, "Wluu kind of cake do you want?" Rob ert sair, "Oh, let's have angelfood cake." But Marie said, "We can'-, afford that Robert." How about doughnuts?" Oh, cried the boys together, let's!" So after supper the children got the things ready to make doughnuts. When they were done they tasted them, and found that they were very good. Next day at noon they were ready for the mayor's daughter. When she came, she shook hands with them. Marie said, "Would you like to eat now?" She said,

"Yes." Then they set down to eat. When Florence tasted the food, she said, "Did you cook it all alone?" They said, "Yes." She said It was very good. After dinner the children told their story of their parents to Florence, Florence cried and said, "I am your mother." She took them home with her, and they lived happily ever after.
