Minnie loved her pet, and the hen lared Minnie, and would let her mis tress catch her anywhere she hap pened to be, and would eat from her mte trees' hand. Minnie thought Little Brown very smart, and talked of her to every one, and told how cunning she was; but in duo way her pet was a great disap pointment to her she never had any little chickens of her own. "Why is it," she asked of her mother, "that Little Brown has no chickens? Spotty has them, and so does Topknot, and Old Grey has more than she knows what to do with. I think Bhe might give a few of hers to Little Brown." "Well," said mother, "as Little Crown does not seem to think she can raise a family, I guess you will have to be contented with Old Gray's chil dren." But Minnie wasn't contented, and finally she took her troubles to Lit tle Brown herself. "Little Brown," fthe said, "I guess you feel mighty bad that you haven't any babies I would if I were you; and and I'm disappointed that you haven't any Thi real disappointed." The little brown hen chirped cosi ly ia Miaaie's arms as if she were (uite contented with life.

"Ytu mean you'll think about it, ftjmt yeu, dear?" Daw long Little Brown stayed awake to think about it Minnie never knew. Cor when she awoke in the norm fag the chickens were following tkeir i other, and Little Brown was alone. I hope she feels how lonesome she is," sighed Mianie.

In a corner by the door sat a man, whose worn clothes and Shabby shoes were whitened with the lime he worked in. His face was lean and marked with tired lines, and his hands, joint-swollen and blunted, hung wearily between his knees. A large woman, be jeweled and plumed, entered the car with a rustle of skirts and a jingle of finery that attracted all eyes. Swaying un certainly on her high heels as she made for the only empty seat, she was thrown from her balance by a Sudden lurch of the train, and only the laborer's promplty outstretched arm saved her from an ignominious fall. She straightened herself with what grace she could, and turned with a smile to thank the gentleman who had rescued her. A glance at the worJjanjL, however, made her expres- THE JOY OP HOUSEWORK. My title is as brave as that grizzled, old explorer who risked the terrors of miles of pathless jungles. When asked how he endured such a peril ous, wearisome journey, he remarked simply that he never anticipated the end of his journey, but enjoyed every bit of the way as he went along. So the housemother who enjoys her la bors can let the kings and queens and great ones of the world go by, v;hile she contentedly creates an ap ple pie that is an apple pie for her appreciative family. Every one has her own tried and true recipe, I suppose, for the joy of life. Like creeds and dogmas, they read and sound very unlike, but strange to say, lead to the same des tination. Mine begins with early rising. If I am to move among my family with "a glorious morning face," I must have a few minutes alone with the Guest who loved to linger in the sim ple homes of Galilee. I never get over my glad swift surprise that. He cares about the little ins and outs of my daily tasks. It seems to me that lie still delights in a clean, well-ordered home. Perhaps, after all, it is ray Guest who makes the heavy labor light. Chaucer wrote his poetry with the nightingales at Woodstock. I con fess that a couple of blue linen house dresses, with pretty muslin collars and a pair of the kind of shoes that are constructed especially for nurses, help me to live mine. It was a hard task to make a lyric poem of dish washing until I disposed of all my battered, dingy pots and kettles and invested in the pretty blue and white agate ware which can be kept clean with a minimum of labor. Despite custom and tradition, I always wash my kettles first and then with clean hot water dabble lovingly over the. pretty china. j Our little house is built on the hill side and our chamber windows are open all day long, consequently mak-( in? the beds is like approaching Greenland's icy mountains. It took, the icy breaths of several winters to make me put on a sweater, gloves and cap and account bed-making as a bit of outdoor winter sport. Inci-! dentally I have discovered that fresh air and good temper are first cous ins. I never knew a "nagger" who j kept her kitchen windows open at the( top on a wholesome winter day. Grandmother used to say: "Make your head save your heels, child." Housemothers need to realize that there are many legitimate short cuts in housework. The American busi-( ness world is famous for its system;! and system in the day's budget of housework gets the house in the way of running itself. A few weeks ago I went to the in stallation of a young clergyman In a country town near by. A long row of dignitaries from city churches were present and were respectfully listen ed to by the little country congrega tion. At last a man of great pres ence, with silvery hair, arose and said crisply: "Take care of yourself. The church has no use for invalids and worn-out preachers." It is cruelly true of housemothers, too. Just as soon as you cease to relish your din ner, and the sound of the children's voices jars on your nerves and you A county school teacher was cash ing her monthly check at the bank. The teller apologized for the filthy condition of the bills, saying: "I hope you're not afraid of microbes?" "Not a bit of it," the school-marm replied. "I'm sure no microbe could live on my salary!" jPfpOjMMMa Mk Life Saver In a letter from Branch land, W. Va., Mrs. Eliza beth Chapman says: "I suffered from womanly troubles nearly five years.
