PATCH BUT NOT CROSS -
PATCH,
"bfolbel',1 just can't wear this
patched Coat to school," said Fred
flinging himself into a chair, and
sticking out his feet, white his faoe
Was drawn up in snot: an ugly scowl
you v'ould have thought him a
dreadful boy.
"Why, Fred, I am surprised ;
only this morning you looked at
those patches and said, "Good for
you, mother, those sleeves are jolly
now, the elbows are alt in," and
when you put it on you smoothed
it down, and gave me a kiss and
told me I was the beet mother in
the world."
"Y•e•s, so I did," and at tho
pleasant voice of his mo (her the
boy drew in his feet and the frown
went off his face a little.
"But yon don't know bow hard
it is," added Fred ; "every boy iu
my class has a new coat and some
brass buttons and all, 1 can see
the very shine of them now."
And Fred kicked tee poor oat as
it was lying iu the sunshine stream-
ing over the bright kitchen floor.
"Colne, come I" spoke up his
mother, "this will never do. Your
coat is well Enough, if you only
think so. At any rato I cannot
buy you a new one ;" and Mrs.
Green put the baby in his arms,
and began dishing up the soup for
dinner.
Out on the little porch went Fred
with baby. The sun was so bright
and warm, that spite of all trouble
he could not help feeling just a
little bit happy. Sealing himself
on the step, he began talking to the
dear litilo follow, just as he often
did when in earnest about things.
"Baby, wouldn't yon hate to
wear patches-patohes on the elbows,
patches on the knees, patches all
over ? Why, I am almost all patch•
es, and the boys have nicknamed
me "Patch." I tell you, baby, its
pretty bard, but when I get to ba a
man, you shan't know what a patch
looks like."
Here the baby crowed and jump-
ed as though he understood every
word.
"Come 1" called mamma, "bring
baby in, your dinner is ready." '
Fred seated himself at the email
table and waited for his mother,
but she took the rocking chair by
the stove, and commenced singing
baby to sloop.
"Mother, aren't you going to
come ?"
"No, son, 1 feel too tired now."
Fred helped himself to a plateful
of the delicious soup, but somehow
it did not taste good, and there was
a big lump in hie throat, and glanc-
ing around to his mother, he saw a
sad, troubled look on her face, She
had stopped singing, and stroked
baby's hair softly. He couldn't
stand it any longer ; but jumped
up and ran to her, and hugged her
tight around the Steck, boy -fashion,
burst out with—
"Mother, don't you loop so sorry.
I oat wear the patches as well 0s
not, and the old coat is teal warm.
I guess it won't kill me if the boys
do call me "Patch." And Mr. Max-
well said yesterday I learned ever
so fast, and he hoped some day
you'd be pond of mm. But you
can't if I don't got over these proud
fits, can yott ? Como now, mother,
let's eat tip all the soup rind have a

Straawbrsrries,
Hat strawberries three times a
day.
Poor strawberries are bettor than
none.

have come.
Let all at the table sugar and
cream their own fruit.
Blessings on the growers who

In strawberries, as in everything
elss.the best is the cheapest.
Strawberries without the [roam
are like the grass without the green.
A garden without a strawberry
bed is like a bonnet without trimm-
ings.
The man who isn't fond of straw-
berries is fit for treason, stratagems
and rhubarb.
The sandy berry is a failure, as
it makes washing necessary, and
washing spoils the berry.
Strawberries are good served in
any way, but the best way is the
way you like them best.
Dish the strawberries at the table.
It is a treat to eeo thorn taken from
the large dish and put in the small-
er ones.
Do not hurt the feelings of the
berry by using coarse sugar upon
it ; pulverized sugar was made for
strawberries,
No dish is too handsome for the
favorite berry, and they come in a
shape, and designs, accompanied by
the smaller dishes to =toll.
Also every fruit bears canning,
but be mire that the children have
plenty of the fresh berries before
the cans aro filled,
Children should not bo compelled
to leave the berries until the last
course ; sometimes, when eaten
first, they create an appetite for a
good dinner, that would otherwise
have gone untested.
There are ways of spoiling the
delicious strawberry ; and one is to
angor it and let it stand awhile for
the juin to go out of it ; another
way is to take the hulls off quite a
while before pulling them on the
table. The hulls should be left on
as long as possible.
