J Probable some of you have read
Ihp story Phoebe Cary tells of the
E n Httle hoy who stopped a leak
| D one of the dykes. You remember
|k|s mother sent him one evening to
Harry a plate across the dyke to the
Lilt of an old blind man. Little Pe-
|ter did his errand quickly and was
K m | Dg home more slowly, stopping
Jjow and then by the side of the dyke
■to gather Mowers. He heard the sea
|| ralnst the dykes and felt
|] g( l that the wall was good and
■strong. f (, r lie knew that if the dyke
[should break the people near would
|,ll be drowned.
AH at once, through the noise of
|tl,e water-, came a low,clear trickling
|sound that made his face pale with
lienor, lie dropped Ills blossoms and
■ hurried up the bank, where the found
Ithe water trickling through a hole in
[the dyke. Even as he watched the
I hole grew larger and the water
poured through in a stream.
I n e gave a loud shout, kneeled
I down o'" 1 thrust his arm Into the

ready to tease everybody. Tne day
was very warm, and his pets had
slept all afternoon. Then he went
to Prince, his dog, and gave him a
kick; then he said, “Get up, you lazy
fellow,” and when he did not get up
he got three more. At last he got
up and walked around.
Prihcess, his cat, also was asleep.
He came to her and lifted her high
in (he air, but the cat gave him an
awful scratch. “Oh, you naughty
cat," he said. “Oh, you naughty boy,”
said his mother, who was sitting on
the porch, and saw all.
"You must go to bed, becauso
you've been bad,” said his mamma.
“Oh, can’t l stay In the hum
mock, please?" he pleaded.
But he had to go to lied. "Show
how good you can be, and go up
stairs.” So he went up to bed. Soon
he was again In the garden, and he
understood the language of the ani
mals. Prince went to Princess and
said, “Don't our master treat us
mean?”
"Yes, I'm not going to live here
any more,” she answered. "He picked
me up in the air, and I gave him a
good long scratch," said Princess.
“Well, I wouldn’t do that, but I
got four awful kicks, and 1 feel it
yet,” said Prince.
"Let us run away to-morrow right
O-ftev he feeds us. We can live in
the mountains, and then something
will tell us to come back when wo
think he'll treat us better,” was
Prince's idea.
“Come, get up and dry your eyes,

He was glad it was a dream, and

AN HONEST DOCTOR
ADVISED PE-RU-NA.
M R. SYLVESTER E. SMITH, Room
Granite Block, St. Ixiuis, Mo.,
writes: “Peruna is the best friend a
■ ick man can have.
“A few months ago I came here in a
wretched condition. Exposure and
dampness had ruined my once robust
health, I had catarrhal affections of
thebronehial tubes, and for a time there
was a doubt as to my recovery.
“My good honest old doctor advised
me to take Peruna, which I did and in
a short time my health began to,im*
prove very rapidly, the bronchial
trouble gradually disappeared, and in
three months my health was fully re
stored.
“Accept a grateful man’s thanks for
his restoration to perfect health.”

A. W. Pefrin, M. D. H., 1*80 Halsey

“I am using your Peruna myself, and
aiu recommending it to my patients in
all cases of catarrh, and find it to be
more than you represent. Peruna can
be had now of all druggists in this sec

OUR DANDY.
Dandy is a little black dog. Tie
always wears a white shirtfront and
four white slippers. He has a tiny
•tut of white on the tip of his silky
'dtuk tail. lie Is a cute little animal.
Besides being cute he is very fond of
Eweet things and doughnuts are his
special delight; you know the kind,
"itli n big hoi: in the middle and all
covered with sugar.
Dandy's mistress does not think
doughnuts are good for him, and she
has expressed herself so often that
Dandy knows quite well what she
thinks.
Now Dora, the cook, did not know,
so tho day before Thanksgiving while
sue was baking Dandy watched her
so eagerly and frisked about so joy
ously that she selected one of the
■ngest cakes and threw it on the
floor for her pet.
Dandy was surprised to say the
( um. | low good the doughnut looked
an< l 'M-m, ’ how good it smelled. He
ookod it all over. lie sniffed at It
aintily. He poked it with his paw.
0 looked up at Dora as if he wanted
" e J', to 8a > r something.
1 hen ho picked up the cake and
catried it in his mouth, trotted sober-
■ away straight into the sitting-
coon, where sat his mistress.
Dandy dropped the cake at her
fJ| ’ fooked pleadingly up in her
af e and waited for orders to eat.
I[ is mistress thought he had stolen
sw oetmeat and calling to Dora,
10 asked, “Do you know how Dandy
E°i this doughnut?”
Shu re, mum; I gave it to him.”
Dandy barked.

I DON'T CARE!
Charley was a little boy who al
ways said "I don’t cure!” no matter
what was said to him. For instance,
his mother remarked at the table:
"You can't have any more cake. It
will make you sick.”
•I don’t care!” said Charley. “I’ll
get well again.”
Sister said: "Please show' me how
to do this example, I can't do it."
“I don't care!" says Charley. "Find
out for yourself and you’ll know how
next time.”
“Don't you see aunt is standing?
Get up, Charley, and give her your
chair.”
“I don’t care! There are other
chairs for her to sit on."
“Come play with baby; he is crying
for you.”
"I don't care! Let him amuse
himself. Mother said it was wicked
for me to frighten the birds, but I
don't care. My cousin beat me run
ning down bill, but I don t care. 1 ni
at the foot of my class, but I don't
care. I missed in all my lessons to
day, but I don't care.”
One day his mother called him to
her knee and said: “Don't carp, did
you say? You surely do not know
the importance of these three w-ords.
When you go to your father and tell
him you are hungry, does he say to
>ou ‘I don’t care?’ When you come
to me and tell me you are sick, what
would you think of me were I to say
‘I don’t care!’ and then go about my
business? You would have as much
right to he hurt as I am at your con
stant repetition of the phrase.”
It is needless to say Charley mend
ed his ways after that.—New Haven
Register.
It Made a Difference.
Hall Caine visited one October the
country residence of a New York man.
It was in New England, on a moun
tain side, and the splendid colors of
the foliage—the scarlets and golds
and innumerable flamelike tints
gave to the still forests an indescrib
able magnificence.
The leaves fell in a rain of color
through the transparent air. In the
garden, one afternoon, he heard a
gardener say to his little son:
"I wish you would rake up these
dead leaves in a pile.”
"Oh, I don’t feel like it,” whined
the boy. "My back's sore, and I've
got a cramp in my wrist, and there's
growing pains in my legs."
"After you've got ’em raked up,”
went on the gardener calmly, you
can make a nice big bonfire out of
them and jump over it."
The boy began to whoop and leap.
“Hurrah!” he shouted. “Where's
the rake?"—Rochester Herald.

GIFTS TO THE BARBER.
One That Was Out of the Usual
Brought In By a Man From
Long Island.
Cash is not the only shape In which
gifts come io the barber. Here was
one in the form of a spray of apple
blossoms brought in by a customer
who lias a country place out some-
whore on Long Island. The barber
ha 1 put lt in a glass of water and
set it In a central place by Itself
among the bottles and things on the
shelf in front of his chair—a spray
of apple blossoms, with all the apple
blossom’s delicate beauty.
It is no reproach to the barber to
say that at first he didn’t know what
they were, for he was born and
brought up in the city; and for that
matter there were plenty of custom
ers In the shop in the course of the
day who didn't know what they wero
any more than he did; as, Jor in
stance, one customer coming in along
In the afternoon who', his eye falling
on the blossoms as he took his seat
the chair, asked of the barber:
“What you got there?”
“Apple blossoms,” says the barber.
“Is that so?” says the customer, as
he surveys them with new Interest.
“Yes,'' says the barber, "that's what
a customer of mine who knows tells
me, and there are two or three bar
bers here in the shop that know and
that's what they say, too.”
And this customer looked them
over again with keener interest still,
his recollection bringing gradually
other apple blossoms back to him
with which to coanpare these, and
these were apple blossoms, sure
enough, some of them not yet open
ed, still of the unfolded blossom's
beautiful pink and some opened, with
(heir petals of the apple blossom’s
delicately tinted pinkish white. And
then he smelled of the blosaoniB, and
they had the apple blossom's deliento
woody fragrance.
Yes, sir; they were apple blossoms
all right, a lovely spray of apple blos
soms here in a city barber shop. And
then the customer sat back and got
shaved.—New York Sun,

ITCHING HUMOR ON BOY.
His Hands were a Solid Mass, and
Disease Spread AH Over Body—
Cured in 4 Days by Cuticura.
“One day we noticed that our little boy
wus all broken out with itching sores. We
first noticed it on his little hands. His
hands were not ns bad then, and we didn't
think anything serious would result. But
the next day we heard of the Cuticura
Remedies being so good for itching sores.
By this time the disease had spread all
over his body, and his hands were nothing
but a solid mass of this itching disease. I
purchased a box of Cuticura Soap and one
box of Cuticura Ointment, and that night
I took the* Cuticura Soap and lukewarm
water and washed him well. Then I dried
him and took the Cuticura Ointment and
anointed him with it. I did this every
evening and in four nights lie was entirely
cured. Mrs. Frank Donahue, 208 Fremont
