To think that you don't recognize ra e when I'm small but'of course It's natur al then. "Did we ever meet you when you were bigger?" ! asked the girl. "Have you any thing special 'to tell us'" ased the boy. "N o w you've Quite Full Grown. nsked a oonple of Interesting questions," snid the 1 Brownie, "nnd I'll uf.tiwer thein. Don't look disappointed, for it really is nice of me to talk to you when you've ; treated nio so shamefully." "What have wo done to you?" asked the boy. "We were in a hurry to go on with our journey," said the girl. "That was all." "you've treated me shamefully, I re peat It," said the Itrnwnle. "Not a bit of it," said the hoy. "You're, really too sensitive." . "No," said the P.rmvnic. "I'm not too sensitive. I will tell you my s'ory, though you do seem to want to get on your wn'y, in Mich a hurry. Iiut you'll never yet very far unless you listen to me. . , ' "My niinii; Is Joy. Lrounie Joy. My father's niune was Merriment and my mother's uanie was Contentment.' Beautiful names, oh?" "But you're sueli a little fellow, Joy." Said the girl. . "You wade me sinall, you truly did," Mid Joy. "Yon both said you weren't fining to pay any attention to any- tiling that wasn't serious. You said you were point: to enjoy hard things you hail to do because you knew they would be good for yon. "Iji the first place yon won't pet much pood out of the hard things you , do If ynu keep sn.ving to yourselves: Now that added two quarts of char acter to me." or whatever you say ', whenvynu speakif nddmg character. I)ou't always be thinking of your selves. It's not n pood thing. ! , things that are hard because you won't i let them pet the better of you and -beat you. Io things that are kind be- ! cause you like folks and creatures so . much. But this much remember, most of nil: 'You will never pet along on the : road to the House of Secrets If you ; treat Joy as you've treated him. I i always prow small when I'm treated j like that. I grow my full size ugaln when folks n-alie that it's just as im- j portnnt to be fond of Joy as of any- : thing else. , "ee ! I'm big now. You've changed your thoughts about Joy. That's '.he ; reasou." The boy Smiled. So did the girl. And Joy, tho' Brownie, was quite full- ; grown once more. "Have you ever been nfrnid that you ' would shrinkito nothing?" kod the i girl. "I mean when folks were behav ing like we were, getting entirely too serious' and too Interested in doing ' tilings to Improve ourselves, too in terested in ourselves In other words, nnd When we were forgetting what an Important part Joy hail to play?"' 'No," said Joy. "I've never been worried that I would shrink to noth ing. Because folks aren't so foolish as to ever really put Joy aside. "I was lying in the Forget-Me-Xot brook, w hich is quite dry owing to the wwilher," ex pin i n e d .To y, "when you began to talk 11s you did. I tried to come up and stop you. But I grew smaller and small er, as you saw- afterward, nnd then hid behind the stone to bide Being Foolish my tears. Kven Joy, you see, can sob ! "It's so wrong to think yon nuts: po along with great long faces and stri ous ways. Gracious ! "That's not being line or unselfish or anything else. It's being foolish. It's making yourselves miserable nnd others too, which Is sellish. "But I won't talk about it any more. For now you' understand." "We 'do indeed,' snid the boy, "and we're mighty grateful to you, Joy. for coniing and telling us your s'ory." "WeH," said Joy, "I wouldn't mis being friends: 'with two adventurers like you for anything." "IMiTali," sdrouted the girl. "Isn't It nice to have Joy say that?" 'New Dith for Bobbie.

"Yet you must admit that women have s yellow streak," protested the low-browed ukiu. "They are great people In a general way, and If they were abol ished It would be little short of a calamity, but they are cheup sports. That's the worst I know about theiu. "Last fall about a thousand women came to town as delegates to some sort of a talkfest, and the cltl.ens w-ere askeil to furnish them with board and lodging during their stay. These dames came to town togged out in purple and tine lien and bespaiiKled with precious stones, and most of them had money in every pocket, yet not one of them thought of going to u liutol and paying her wuy like a little man. In the hunch wire the wives of bankers and hiundrymen nod editors, and other notoriously wealthy citizens, rjid they were such poor sports that liey were willing to accept u handout rather titan loosen up a few bones at the caravansary. "There were six of these female del egates tit our house. Aunt Julia goes the limit when it comes to hospitality. When she first heard that the women of the town were expected to take euro of the delegates she said she would take cure of two of them. A day or two later she sent word that she could provide for four, and then she conclud ed she could bundle six, and if she hud bad a few more days, she'd have vol unteered to take charge of the whole convention. Shy's a good spurt, even If till the rest of the women are four flushers. "The six women arrived on time nnd the look of them gave me chills and fever. They were tierce old relics with tortolseshell coails in their hair. I was hoping our delegates might be young nnd attractive, but these women all had false teeth and large feet. "I was expected to live in the cow stable during their stay, and befjire they came I protested bitterly, but af ter seeing thorn I was perfectly satis fied with the arrangement. Aunt Julia actually gave up her comfortable bed room and slept on a cot in flu- kitchen. She had been busy for days fixing up things so the women would be comfort able. "You should have seen those six women when they came down for break fas 1 the first morning they were there. They looked as sour ns though they hnd just been given ten days on the roekplle. They began grumbling among themselves, taking cure to talk loud enough for Aunt Julia to hear. One said she had always been used to a good big pillow, nnd she couldn't sleep on a pillow the size of a pin cushion. If strangers ever stayed ovr night at her house, she snid, they would ho given real pillows, nnd not graven images. "Another old hag said (he bed she slept in kept her awake all night with its creaking and groaning. It evidently needed oiling. She didn't believe that any woman with proper self respect would let a guest have such n bed. Aurt Julia listened for a while, anil I could bear her teeth grating like n coffee mill. After a wlfile she went t:ps!.i;rs and gathered nil the h.inrt bugs and other traps' belonging to those beldames, and put them on the porch, and when the women were done eat ing she led them out and show ed them their Junk, and Invited them to go down to the railway yards and find lodging in a box car." Bees Ea'.en for RevenQe. RtH's are usually employed as manu facturers of honey, which is every where considered n delicious food, bui there are places where the bees them selves serve us a food. The negroes of Guiana, when stung by a bee, proceed to cutch as many us they can anil In revenge eat them. It would be interesting to know wbat happens as an effect of the sting flius tnken Internnlly. In Ceylon the natives hold a torch under the bee swarm hanging to a tree, catch tberu ns they drop, then carry them home, boil Ihetn nnd eat them. Popular Science Monthly. Left an Opening.
