Every night v -!ten the moon was round end shining brightly in the sky, little Margaret and her mother would walk on the lawn to breathe the pure sweet air L•ef..re going to sleep. Vaud in hand they would walk tip and down on the lawn and around post the fountain. A little stone deer stood at the foun- tain. Margaret was very fond of the Mlle deer; she wished very much that it was a real live deer, like the deer in the park. "Mamma," sail Margaret, "why Mai'( we have a live deer instead of a alone deer? A live deer could drink the waster . at the fountain, and 1 think it would be niuch prettier than a plain w hite stone deer." But mamma thought the stone deer was nicer, because it could not run about e nd trample the grass. Ono night, when the moonlight was flooding the lawn and making the water glisten and sparkle, little Margaret ran out on the lawn alone, to talk to the Utile deer. "1 wish you were a live deer," Mar- garet was saying, ns she stood by the little stone deer. "You would be my pet, and you could run and play with me." "You are very niuch mistaken if you think 1 can't run and play," said the little deer, and. oh! he began to run end prance about the lawn. Margaret was delighted. "Oh, can you, do•erie, can you really?" she cried, running after him as he pranced about. "Papa has often told me that I could run as fast as a deer -let's try; let's run a race across the lawn." And the little deer ran, and \largnret ran as fast as the deer. "1 cant 1 can!" cried Margaret, clap- ping her hands. "1 can run as fast as a deer !" "1 can leap, loo 1" said the little stone •deer *"1 can skip!" sold Margaret. So away they went, skipty-leap, all around the lawn. Lithe Margaret laugh- -- ed with glee, and tossed her arms in the moonlight. Site was so happy to have the little deer play %vita her. "Now wo are tired," said little Ma ;'acct, "let's sit down by the fountai and rest." "1'm not tired," said the little ston deer. "You may ride on my back i yell like." "Oh 1 mny 1?" cried Margaret. And the little stone deer kneeled down and \tnrgnret jumped up on his back, arid a ay they went like the wind. Little \largnret clung with all her might to the (leer's neck. She had never taken such a fast ride before in her life. "I wish you wouldn't go quite so fast, if you please," she snit!, at Inst. "That is one way 1 used to run when the hunters chased Ire," said the little stone deer. "Orn, little deer," said \inrgaret, did the hunters ever chase you ?" "Of course they chased Nle," said the deer. !'That is the way they caught ane h Ming me hero to stand at your foun- tain." "Pell nie about It," said little Mar• gnret, letting go and rolling down to the shpt grass. \Well, you know 1 was brought up in the forest." began the deer. "Margaret 1 Margaret 1 what are you doing asleep byre oil the damp grass," said her mother, stooping so to lift tillle Margaret. "Come in, and be put lo bed." "1 haven't been asleep," said Margaret, robbing her eyes. "I've been pinytng with the little dune deer. ire ran and played with me, and 1 rode on his hack; and he was going to tell me about the 11111' when tic lived In the. forest."

"Mimics" in British Army Victims of Interior Cooking. There are very few (nen in the Brit- ish array who aro satisfied withthe manner in which army cuu}.ing is done; and w lie can wmrdcr? The secret of Indifferent army li)'sy- Ing lies in the unpreparedness and un- willingness of soldier -cooks ter their work. Men ore selected at randomfrom the ranks, totally regardless of their qualifications, and are thrust into o it ,ok•house to prepare, per•hnps on the very day of appointment, dinner for a company of men. It says much for the soldier's ndnpinbility and the car purity for extraneous work of the one ttalned conic in a battalion -the serge- anI-eook---that meals are cooked as well e: they are.

Eventually, dei ndont made an offer of 21 to settle the matter in court, which proposition the judge &roigte advised plaintiff to accept. The n: Ger,uu, however, disdainfully refused or. the ground !hat his income was 201 per month, and that 21 was no commen- surate with the injury done to a man o! his position. A widespread conver- sation then ensued between the judge and the clerk of the court, who consult- ed the local tax register. This led to the discovery that the German was as- sessed on a ridiculously small amount. Th. judge thereupon trade a note re- commending the tax surveyors to assess plaintiff henceforth on his full income of 2401 per annum.
