Bedtime Story for Children By THORNTON W. BURGESS >
DANNY MEADOW MOUSE IS GLAD HE IS SMALL IF EVER tn all the Great World there was a startled Bear, that one was Buster Bear when Danny Meadow Mouse ran straight at him. Beechnuts were in Buster Bear’s mind, sweet little beechnuts and nothing else, when he reached out a great paw to rake over that little pile of leave*. It didn’t enter Buster's bead that there might be anything but beechnuts under them. So, when Danny Meadow Mouse with a frightened squeak darted out from under Buster's very paw and straight towards him. Buster was so surprised and startled that for a second or two he didn’t know what to do. Now It seemed an absolutely crazy thing for Danny to run straight st Buster, but the truth is it was the wisest thing be could have done. It wasn’t wisdom that made him do it anny Had Darted Behind a Big Tro* o. indeed, it wasn’t wisdom at aIL It was just pure fright and nothing else. Danny was so frightened that he didn't have any Idea at all where he was running. He just ran, that was aIL And because be happened to be facing Buster Bear he ran straight at him. Now if he had run ■’way from Buster things might no. have turned out at all as they did. Buster would have seen just where he went and the instant he recovered from his surprise would have been after him. As it was. Danny darted right under Buster's big paw and right across the toes of one of Buster's big hind feet. Buster is a Mg fellow and he looks clumsy, but he isn't nearly as clumsy as he looks. In fact. Buster Isn't clumsy at all. Ije is surprisingly quick in his movements for such a big fellow. The instant he recovered from his surprise at the sudden appearance, of Danny Meadow Mouse, Buster whirled about A fat Meadow Mouse would go splendidly ■’-YOU Know— That thousands of white bond-servants sent over from England and bound to serve for seven or ten years, did most of the work in the American colonies until about the close of the Seventeenth century. During the time of their bondage they could be bought and sold like slaves. • M«atu« SnSteata. WXD Sarvtaa.

with those sweet beechnuts he had eaten. „ But by the time Buster had turned about Danny had darted behind a big tree and there he stopped. He stopped because he didn’t know which way to go. It happens that that was the wisest thing he could have done. You see. if he had continued to run he would have rustled the dry leaves and Buster would have known just where be was. But because he stopped as he did there was nothing to tell Buster which way he bad gone. For once in his life Danny Meadow Mouse was glad he was little. Right then be would have been glad to be smaller than he was. Many, many times he had wished he was big. but now be was very, very thankful that he wasn’t Had he beta big. as big, let ‘ us say, as Peter Rabbit the chances are that he wouldn’t have been able to alip out from under Buster's big paw as he had done. He was glad that be was little. Yes, indeed, Danny Meadow Mouse was glad that he was little. ' C T. W. RunrMt.—WMV Sarrica.

MoiHSgOßook SUMMER MEALS DURING the warm weather is the time to let down on all unnecessary work so that mother may have a little vacation as well. Informal serving—letting the youngsters do the work—it will be a change from school work, and it is a good thing to train them to do all kinds of household tasks. The girls, of course, are expected to have this training before they go into their own homes, or how will they know how to deal with household matters and spend the money given to them for the upkeep of the home? Boys, too, should begin early to learn how to cook simple foods, be able to make a good cup of coffee, prepare a crisp piece of toast, and serve a well-cooked egg. These accomplishments are not only helpful but often necessary in cases of illnesa or absence of the housewife. It is not always easy or agreeable sos a good housekeeper to turn over the work to her children, but it is most gratifying in results. Now is the time to serve the meals on the porch or in the garden; the young folks will enjoy taking the extra steps and the novelty will serve to delight the whole family. Serve breakfast buffet style as the English do. Everybody has a few covered dishes to keep things hot, and with hot coffee and toast, one may make a fine breakfast Scrambled eggs, sliced bacon, sausages—even hot griddle cakes or waffles may be made on the porch. A perfect picnic is one where every-
