Julie stood In the middle of the kitchen and lookeduhuut her; there were the dishes to be done, the beds to be made, tha rooms to dust and the Vegetables to h* prepared for dinner end .Vlra Jones had told her to darn the socks In her work basket. "I Just can’t do all of It,” said Julia, with tears In her eyas; ‘TU get a scolding anyway, so 1 guess I won’t do any of the work; I’ll go Into the garden aud look at the flowers.” Julia took off her long gingham apron end went Into the gurden. .She dearly loved flowers, and while Mrs. Jones had a large garden Julia had never hud a chance to look at the flowers all she wanted to. Jillla had lived with Farmer Jones ami his wife a year; her mother was dead and her father, who was a sailor, had not been heard from tn two years and, us there was no orphan asylum In the town where she lived, a home was found for her with the Jorus family. She sang as she walked among tho flow era. and after sho hud seen them all she sat down under a tree aud then she thought of her work, aud she won. dared what Mrs. Jonas would say- T wish a fairy would come along,” said Julia. Just then Julia felt a queer sensa tion. It was as though sbs was gliding through the air, and she found herself back tu the kitchen, and such s com motion ss there was The dishes were Jumping up and down In the dtshpan. making the water fly In alt directions, then they Jumped out and stood In front of the stove to dry Slid then ran to tha closet and popped Into thcL places on the shelf. Th* broom cams running from be hind th« door where it wa* kept, and brushed the floor. The dust pan and the brush Jumped from their nook by the chimney and took up the dust and put It iq the stove, and the kitchen looked as sygek and span as though Julia had done It herself. Then she felt herself gliding up the Stairs to (he bedroom without her Iset touching the stairs, gnd there were th* mattresses shaking themselves Just as Mrs. Jones had taught her to do, aud w tie ii they were l«ck on the bed the clothes spread over them looking as though they had been smotbsred Into (dace with the broomstick as Julia did every morning Buck to th# kitchen JuMa glided once more, and the vegetables were In a pan of water all ready for tha ket tle. "There are fairies, after all." said Julia "I can go bnck to the garden and sit under the tree,'' Hut Just then she heard a voles say lug. "Little girl, wake up and tsll ms where Farmer Jones lives” Julia opened her eyes, for she had been asleep, and leaning over the fence wa* a man with n bearded face carry ing a bundle of slicks over hi* shoul der. Farmer Jones lives here '• Julia re plied. and then she looked bard at the. man an 1 lu another inst.tnt she weal INDOOR SPORTS - - By Tad running toward him crying, "Father, father, you have come back." The man dropped his bundle and took her In his arms. "My poor llttlq lassie,” he said, as the tears ran down hi:; sunburned face. Julia took her father Into the house, and though ghe did not find the work done as she had dreamed It was, she had no fear of s scolding when Mrs. Jones returned, for her father had come home, and she was going to live with him. He told her how the ship he called on had been wrecked and that after he was rescued he was sick for a long time, and had only Just now been able to reach his native land.

THE WAYS OF THRIFT (Copyrighted, 1914, American Society for Thrift.) SCHOOL THRIFT HARVEBTS. School garden harvests are growing In number, it was seen this autumn. A procession of children carrying takes, spades and baskets marched to ward a public park in Chicago where they had labored all summer in their 4x4 gardens for the general harvesting ceremonies. Here is an interesting cute: Early in the spring many small lots in Dvorak Fark were apportioned among seventy children over ten years ola, who promised to "pet' a garden on four different days each week. The children have raised vegetables and Powers. They have had beets to take home to their mothers almost every picking day, which Is Friday. They have had four crops of radishes, two clops of lettuce, and the Swlsa chard has qever given out during the entire season and Is still abundant. The pep per grass lias been splendid when mix ed with hread and butter, the children say. The children have been able to cut the vegetable bills in their house bolus and the mothers look forward to “picking day” almost as eagerly as the children. Thomas W. Churchill, president of the board of education of New York City, wrote comprehensively on thrift school work to Simon W. Straus, president of the American Society for Thrift, as follows: "The schools of this city, both through their organization and in tha content of their Instruction, inculcate lessons of thrift among the children, although such lesson# necessarily are carried pn (n the face of a great deal of actual extravagance in living on the part of the population nt large. The ways tn which these habits have been inculcated may he summarized “Bale ot Colton” Movement Aids Auto Dealers ot South Gives Profits to Cotton Grower Instead of Middle man. Country-wide Interest In the “buy a-bala-of cotton” movement launched by southern business men In an effort to move thehuge cotton crop of the south. Is bound to react In favor of automobile sales according to J. H. Gordon, Atlanta representative for Dodge Brothers, who has Just arrived in Detroit. "AVlth cotton prices lower than at any time during the past twelve years It is necessary that whatever (mail as follows: “The type of Instruction: Almost all of our girls are taught to cook, and the boys to work In a shop, so that they will not be victims of an idea lligt work Itself is drudgery. This in struction is farther supplemented by a considerable amount of actual teach ing in the trades in certain schools for boys and girls. These trades in clude practically all of the leading oc cupations. "We fiave a very extensive scheme of instruction for wage earners by Vhi' li they may become more efficient yiwkmen, and in that way learn to in crease the value of their own services. “A strong point Is made In all the schools of neatness and cleanliness in dress as well as in simplicity. Jewelry, ornaments, extravagant methods of personal adornment are severely dis couraged. “Savings Banks: The extension of schcol banks' Is being constantly en couraged. At present many of our schools conduct savings banks for pu pils, and a special committee has been appointed by the board of education to report upon the organization of these banks and the rules governing them "Even - attempt is mad® for sim plicity In school celebrations, especial ly in the matter of dress. In a cir cular letter legued by the city super intendent, he requested the principals to advise teachers and pupils that in preparing ffcr graduation exercises, the pupils should appear neatly, but as Inexpensively clothed as possible. As an example- 009 of largest Jilgh schools graduated last year a class us glris who made their own graduation dresses at a cost of not mare than apiece." ThrUt ha* more active this summer than last. What may not be expected from the children pent fa 11 . profits are to bp made, should accrue direct to the planter," says Mr. Gor don. "his Is the direct object of the "buy a bale of cotton' idea which is being backed with such energy by business interests in general and the automobile industry In particular. THi* Year’s Crop. "The south this year has a cotton crop of some 16.000.000 bales to dis ppse of and faces the prospect of a completely closed European market, for months to come. Europe annually takes two-thirds of America's cotton auppy. but the war has effectually stopped foreign exporta The differ ence this makes to the ootton grow er is clearly shown by a comparison of prices for this year and last. In 191 S, plamtera were receiving about 14 1-! cents per pound as against S 6-S cents per pound quoted by At lanta buyers on the day I left that city. '*To relieve the situation, the news papers and business men In tbe south ern states have been boosting the sale of cotton to private Individuals and firms, at the rate of 10 cents par pound. This price Is paid direct to the producer, and nets him 050 per bale, thus eliminating the cotton bro kers and mill buyer's proflf on tbe transaction. Thousands of planters In the south found themsetves well stocked with cotton at the beginning of the European war. hi} l without a dollar for Immediate necessities. It was to relieve this situation that the private sale of cotton was encourag ed end Is bslng carried forward so successfully. Prompt Response. "Xo class of business man have re* sponded more promptly than the au tomobile dealers In the southern cities Kv ery salesroom tup» its halo or bales of cotton in the window, and many dealers are taking cotton In part pay ment for cars. In addition, a great majority of motor car manufacturer* are buying great quantities direct, and this all serves to strengthen tba ."landing of the automobile men with their laraeet class of purchasers tbe men who grow the cotton. "If the present low price of cotton results In nothing else. It has taught the planters a most valuable lesson in economics. Heretofore, the ownere pf DEIMEL LINEN-MESH UNDERWEAR ' HAS ARRIVED The ideal undergar ments for winter. Warm in* the coldest weather and comfort able when the days are warmer. 'We can get no more of it until the war is over. DORR Good Taste Apparel. big tracts of land, have devoted every available acre to the raising of cotton Except in rare instances, the planter buys his entire food supply from out side sources, depending on the profit able sale of cotton to pay his bills. If more of them had set aside a small part of their property for raising cat tle, wheat or vegetables, they would now he in a position to sit back and wait for the raise in cotton pricejs, which is bound to come sooner or la ter." Despite the present trend of condi tions in the South, Mr. Gordon Btates that automobile dealers are preparing for a big selling season, many having increased their orders for 1915 cars. He reports all territory assigned to him closed up on the sales rights for the new car w-hich Oodege Bros, will bring out this fall. HEADS UP—NOT HANDS UP. A Good Slogan for All of Us. At a time such as the present some people are wiljing to throw up their hands and to acknowl edge that things are in a terrible condition and that everything Is going rapidly to . the bow-wows. On the contrary, we are "chuck full” of optimism. We believe In OIIRSELA'ES: we believe in YOU, and we believe In YOUR ABILITY to meet the present sit uation AS MEN. \A r e belieye in the ASSETS and the INTEGRI TY of the South. We believe in the BUY-A-BALE MOVEMENT and have bought ours, both as a cotppany and as individuals, and at 10 cents per pound. We have also succeeded in interesting a number of our Northern friends and business associates in mak ing similar purchases. To us every day looks brighter than the one just past. We are living in the best country on earth, at peace with all the world, and in a time all of us have more of the comforts and luxu ries of life than we have ever enjoyed before.
