/ / FAYETTEVILLE NEWS, FAYETTEVILLE, GEORGIA. JACK FROST O NE clear, cold night Jack Frost looked out over the land from his home away up North. “I am going to keep out of sight tonight,” said he. "I will go from tree to tree and house to house and I will go so softly that no one will suspect me and spoil my fuu." Jack Frost was in a mischievous mood and bent upon having what he was pleased to call v. good time. “I guess people will open their eyes in the morning,” he said, as lie gilded up the side of the mountain. Jack Frost rolled in the snow until he was white and sparkling, not at all the glistening Jack he was usually when lie went abroad. “Now for the fun,” said naughty Jack; “I will begin wltt the little trees." In a few minutes the trees were all frosty looking; then to the big trees he went and covered them, giving the "1 think that will do for outside work tonight,” said the mischief- maker. ‘‘Now I will look inside the housps, and see what I can find to do there,” but he could not resist the temptation to paint his frost work pictures on the windows, temples and flowers and birds and tali trees. Then through the rooms he crept and on a table in one room Jack spied a vase of flowers. He touched it softly and snap, snap, the pretty vase fell to pieces, but the flowers stood beautiful in tne ice which had once been water. “They will be surprised when they see that,” said bad Jack Frost, “and now I know there must be something worth while spoiling in the dining room, hut there in the fireplace was a log of wood which was still burn ing. Jack felt its warm breath and quickly ran into the kitchen. “My, It is lucky I got out of there,” said he. “I wouldn’t live long in a place like that. Now I will, take a look in tlie pantry; there iniisi lie something I can do in there. “All, ii pitcher of milk and I am thirsty.” His frosty lips touched the 'milk and soon-it Was frozen solid, and when tills was done Jack saw a bas ket of fruit on the floor close by tiie pantry door. "They thought the fire would keep in the stove all night, but it didn’t. They left the door open thinking I would not dare to come in,” said Jack. "Won’t they lie surprised in the morn ing when they find this fruit hard as stone?”' I-Ie tou^ied encli with his frosty finger tips; and just as he was think ing the water pipes In the kitchen would be the next upon which to work Ids frostf tricks he heard n sound that made him tremble with fear. It did not take him a second to run out of the house, for Jack knew the sound. It was the crackling and snapping of the new fire in the kitchen stove. He had been so intent upon doing mischief that he had over stayed Ills time and it was daylight. Jack Frost is’a fearless fellow, but then* is one tiling from which he will always run, and that is a good hot fire, so lie could not stay to see if every one was surprised by ids visit, which served him right for spoiling so many tilings. Don’t you think so? (Copyright.) tfps of some of the branches a dash of ids old-time brilliancy; and when the moon was up it looked as if some one had hung diamonds on them. Jack could not help making things beautiful even when ho was bent upon mischief, but the poor trees itad not expected bis visit and most of them were spoiled. Then Jack crept along to a singing brook, rippling softly in the moon light, and here the bad fellow threw over it an icy cover and stilled its voice, and the jolly little brook looked through its glassy roof wondering what happened when only a short time ago it was so happy. THE BRIDE’S GIFTS Thanks, good friend, for thy much goodness.—Shaknopeare. YX7HETHER a bride receives one VV present or several hundred, she must write a personal acknowledgment for each, and tills must always take the form of a cordial note and must ntver be couched in formal or stereo typed phrases. This task of writing gratitude letters must never be dele gated to another person, save in the case of illness, when a sister or other relative or close friend may write notes by way of acknowledgment; and even then the bride should, if possible, write a personal note of gratitude as soon as she is able to do So. The ac knowledgments should never be by the bridegroom.’ There is a growing feeling against the present custom of lavish gift-giv ing at weddings. It is not infrequently something of an embarrassment to the guests who feel that they must give expensive presents, and quite as em barrassing to the brides, who. if they issue many invitations to a large wed “What s in a Name- r\ i MILDRED MARSHALL FACTS about ylour name; it’s bistort; meaning; whence it as derived; signifi cance; your lucky! day! and lucky? jewel ding, find themselves after their mar riage the possessors of a collection of household articles, silver, bric-a-brac, crystal and miscellaneous possessions that are more of a burden than a sat isfaction—things that do not corre spond with the rest of their furnish ings and things that they would never have selected had they themselves been consulted. The only way to avoid receiving a collection of pres ents is not to have a large wedding. The custom of having a room set aside at the time of the wedding, and there having the gifts displayed with the cards of the givers attached, lias come In for considerable criticism. It might prove embarrassing to the guest whose offering was very small to see it tagged beside the far more costly present of some one else whose real af fection for the bride was considerably less than his own. If you do have the gifts' on view, do not have them tagged. Many persons prefer not to have tills sort of exhibition at all, but a day or so before the wedding to ask very close friends in to see the pres ents. (Copyright.) O Elizabeth North MINNIE 'T'HE simple little name of Minnie A has a most devious history. It or iginated away back in Teutonic myth ology, where, according to the story, when creation began, the cow An* dumbla licked out of the stones a man named Bur, who was the grandfather of three primeval gods, Odin, Will and Ve, and It was these three who gave life to the first pair of human beings. Will was the Will of man. His name echoes down through the ages of Norse mythology in various combina tions, which savor boldly of Valhall and prefaces many other names. The Frank Queen Bilichilde was really AVillihilda, meaning resolute battle. Her name Was popular among Norse maidens and even had vogue in Teutonic countries. Willhelm was “made in Germany” and signified “res olute helmet.” The feminine counter part of this name was Wilhelmina. Always popular in Germany, it was adopted by England and penetrated Holland, where the most famous mod ern woman who bears the name is Queen Wilhelmina, beloved of the Dutch. England found the name a trifle cumbersome in spite of its regality and it gradually changed under Brit ish influence to Wilmet, Wilniot Mina and finally the popular diminutive Min nie. America has reached out and extracted Minnie from the numerous derivatives, discarding almost all oth ers, with the occasional exception of Wilhelmina, which invariably changes to “Willie” or “Billie” under our pref erence for diminutive. France makes the name even more ponderous by calling it Guillerume, Gulllemette, Minette, Guilette, and Mtml. In Spain Guillemina is popular and in Italy, Guglielma. Wllhelmine is preserved in Germany, interchanged with Minna. The regal diamond is quiet little Minnie’s talisinanic stone. It promises her fearlessness, Invulnerability, and victory in any endeavor. To dream of it signifies victory over enemies, and to wear it on the left hand is said to enhance the love of a husband for his wife. Saturday Is Minnie’s lucky day and six^her lucky number.

AX IS BEST FOR EGG EATERS Habit Spreads From One Fowl to An other and Unless Checked Affects Whole Flock. (Prepared by the United States Departmenl of Agriculture.) Egg eating sometimes becomes a se rious vice in a flock, the fowls becom ing very fond of eggs when they have learned to eat them. The habit spreads from fowl to fowl and unless checked will often spread through the whole flock. Egg eating usually begins through accident, by eggs being broken or frozen. See that the nests are prop erly supplied with, straw or other nest ing material and have them darkened, j so that if an egg is accidentally broken the fowls will not be likely to dis cover it. Supply plenty of lime in the form of oyster shells, bone or similar substances to insure a firm shell. As soon as it is discovered that a fowl lias formed the habit, the fowl should be removed to prevent the spread of the vice. Once formed, it is difficult to eradicate, und the safest remedy is the death penalty, say poultry special ists of the United States Department j of Agriculture. Fowls sometimes pluck feathers from themselves and from each other. This is often caused by too close con finement, by the presence of insect pests, or by improper feeding. When some of the fowls of a flock have formed .the habit slightly, a wide range with a change of diet, including a plentiful supply of animal feed, and freedom from insect pests, will usual ly correct the evil. Above all, see that the fowls have plenty of induce ment to exercise. If the habit becomes well formed it is very troublesome and may necessitate the killing of some of the fowls in order to stop it. Important to all Women Readers of this Paper Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney bladder trouble and never suspect it.

YEARLY EGG LAYING PERIOD Increase Made at Massachusetts Ex periment Station by Selection of Pullets. Dr. H. D. Goodale, research biologist In poultry at the Massachusetts Ex perimental station, stated that the yearly egg-laying period of a flock of hens at that place had been increased by an average of 58 days by egg- selection from early-laying pullets. This, lie said, had resulted in an in crease in the number of winter eggs, raising the ,annuul egg average from 121 to 185. Poultry breeders should aim to eliminate broody hens from breeding stock: also the birds idle longest in the winter months. Probably the Only Day.
