to a fifty-two mile walk from London

a prize to be decided upon later, each
mother competing to push for the
whole of the distance a perambulator

ther condition is that this ehild must
not be more than six month's old and
all of its Heeds meet be attended to
by the mother en route. .

boys, is no four weeks old.. and .she
calculates that, including' all stops for

How I Make My Rugs. ,
Here is my scheme for dying rug

for black use hickory bark. The inner
bask of white birch makes orange,
hoop gash makes, yellow. The roots and
hark of dogwood make scarlet, and I
use indigo herb for blue. Boil thirty
fn'nutes for either color wanted and
add water to make a solution. To color
oaten a brown, for ten pounds of
goods use one-half pound of catechu
dissolved• in hot ~eater, =and ane -half
ounce of 'bane vitriol. Put all in a tub
with goods and enough waren water to
cover material. Stiry for twenty min-
utes then lift •out and put in another
tub in which has been dissolved tw
ounces of bichromate of potash. Stir
this for twenty minutes, wash and dry,
I braid most of my lugs narrow,
about one-half inch. It takes a lot of
patience but they are much nicer than

Message That Miscarried.
in a certain church one of the duties
of the sexton was to•blow for the -or-
gan. The' pian was deaf. and perhaps
on that account had fallen into thho
somewhat embarrassing habit of quit-
ting his task before a. hymn was fin-
ished.
One Sunday a new minister was cern-
ing, and the young lady who played
Mlle organ naturally wanted to appear
to advantage. As soon as the service
t had started she wrote a note, and,
handing it to the sexton, told him to
,read it at once.
-i vfdently the old nian did not catch
her words, cnarectly, for to her horror
she saw hire id' to the. minister atter
the first hymn and laid. him the note.
The minister opened it and read:
"Keep blowing steadily until 1 tell you

It is easy to have flowers blooming
all summer, by planting hardy phlox.
When once established the plants will
keep blooming better every year, and.
there are se many -colors that any
taste may be satisfied.
There is almost no end to the var-
iety of colors. There are many bril-
liant reds, ora,n+ge-ecaelet, and deep
purple. There are delicate pinks and
rose that will stand full sun, end
there are finer pinks and lavenders
that will be purer and prettier if
grown in the shade •ar partial :shade.
Then the pure white and creamy
white spirts will fill in anywhere.
While the foliage is pot especially
attraetive it is not objectionable, and
the flowers eve borne over a very.long
season --from midsummer until i"'1
and so free as to make the clump a

may not clash when indiscriminately

Romance of Investments told
in Clever Short Story
CHAPTER I.
When James Allen died, he left
two daughters a small bat com-
fortable hone and fifty thousand
dollars of life insurance. He had
been a quiet, taciturn man, taking
no one, not even his own daughters,
into his confidence. Notuntil he
was buried and his will was read,
did anyone have the slightest idea
of his possessions. He had held the
position of Clerk of the Court for
forty years, and had lived comfort-
ably, educated his daughters and
performed his duties as a good citi-
zen. Hiswife had died four years
before hire. It now appeared that
he had adopted early, in life the idea
of living close to leis income, sav-
ing enough each year to pay his
life insurance premiums, and rely-
ing on the insurance to take care of
his family when he should be gone
—rather a dangerous, but not un-
usual, policy.
He had never dismissed business
at ho"nie, and his daughters were
without male kith or kin. There
was no man, no near relative, they
could •go to for advice, and, with,
the instinctive dread of women o$
exposing their affairs to outsidersii
they hesitated to take anyone into
their confidence. • •
It was the evening foIlowing-the
funeral, and the -two sisters,in the
new black gowns, were seated h¢
the little lonely sitting -room, read4
ing their father's last will and tea
tanient, which was very brief, and
