They stood apart, and Bouncer panted soft- ly, while Bray ',Squill -el patted him and said something that made bis eyes still brighter. "I don't know who won," said Grandpa Coon, one of the judges. "I was watching Prong Horn, who was behind the others." "Neither do I," said Roundface Owl, another judge. "The sun came out and blinded me just as ,they leaped over the log.'" "Well I know who won " said Grandpa Fox, still waving his big handkerchief. "It was Bouncer Rob - bit. I was watching the finish line and the sun did not blind me. Bouncer Rabbit won, and I am glad of "So aye all of us!" cried the others in a chorus, for they suddenly gemem- was—friendly to all and never boast - And that is how Bouncer Rabbit, with the help of his good friend, Gray Squirrel, won the great race 'through the forest that the wood folk talked' about all the rest of the winter,:— Youth's Companion.

Cleaner and eneier to use than =nosy plastero or ointments. It penetrates READY-MADE THOUGHTS. and Independence. The world --men, women and 0111- dren—turns at least in this country, more and more to ready-made clothes. Of course, as the number of those who demand such things becomes larger, the supply becomes' better. Production on such an immense scale insures something that will fit any need. There is a great saving of time, of strength, of physical and mental ef- fort. Repeat,ed sessions with a allot or a dressmaker are wearisome to hurried nerves and muscles; but to walk into a shop and walk out again freshly, if not quite perfectly, array- ed gives you a joyous sense of the triumph of spirit over matter. Then, too the democratic instinct is not to accentuate differences, but to remove them. To' dress and to live very much as others do is easier and kinder, The same tendency is manifest in thought. More ,and morm we incline to take our thoughts, and still more the dress of them, from others. Uni- versal common -school education , has great advantages; but it has this dis- advantage tnat it tends to difft st ready-made thinling, to extinguish originality and independence under a vast garment of commonplace.
