M VlilUM NI?WH UH'O^ * WINNIE'S WONDERING5 Winnie wondered. y lie wondered whether it was *>etter j to be willing ami to heJp or ! whether it was I bolter to be. clever , and smart. She r e rn oiu bered the time when she had run for the doctor when the little boy next do'ir had , been ill. There bad been a dread- 1 fui storm a;id the ; wires were down j ami there was no j way of getting the doctor save' by go- ! ins; lor him. j How \V : n n i e . had ran ! The little boy's family said Winnie hid really saved his life." Thev had given i ? Rsr.ding Too Lat;. her sueli a lovely bracelet us a reward I -made of real gold. She hadn't known j nr t bought of u reward, 1 'crimps that ; was why she enjoyed the reward so ; | luucli ! ,? Then she wondered whether it was ! more fun to read late and have all that . [Measure, even though she was sleepy ! in the morning, or whether it was bet ' ter to be fresh for games and play lu the ui? ?ruing and go right to sleep at ; night. Sometimes wlu?n the f ?uti H y luiil gone out she had sat up way beyond , be.! lime and had only just turned out , die light before they had come in. | Then tire globe of the light was stili j warm. Kven a silent thing like a light ( globe could be a tattle-tale. But of course that was reading too late. And then she was so fearfully sleepy in the morning. She wondered whether it v.as more fun to < liml? over the great chests in the linen room and have that as a ; [riavroom where she could mak*. t-P a*1 sorts of games, or whether it was more fan where all the toys were and tie* games were all In readiness. She wondered, too. whether she liked the country better than the sea- ; shore. At the scus'to.e there was the s.r . an 1 there were roeUs and tliere was a lovely salty taste to the air. p.ut in the country there was a sunny warmth and lovely, lazy teeling. anil t here were more tlowers.

Winnie used to 'dress up in these Oil .-?iiiiv davs and make low hows, pre te'f.dins; to be the different handsome gentlemen and beautiful ladies who had be -n to the receptions u-bere these lifld been worn. She wondered whether she liked the winter better than the summer. In the winter sometimes the streets got so slippery that the coasting was : really thrilling, and there was skating, j too. She had even been ice-boating, which was ipiite the most thrilling thing In the world. Hut tn the summer the bathing was such fun. and to go out in a boat along | tJie shore and pretend to throw out mail as the boat passed each little eovo. That was a glorious game. Then in the summer there were such nice games to play and one didn't have to bundle up. In the summer the woods were so lovely and cool and the shadows da need so prettily ? ? with the sun and the trees. Hut in the win trr. on the other hand, there were sleigh rides and steaming h"t sup pers afterward. Yes. W i n ? I e wondered. She couldn't make up her mind what she liked best. And then her wonders began to go and she was puzzled no longer. She liked lots of t h 1 n g s y o u \W ?%' She Could Drew lip. didn't have to decide what you likod best when you could tike many things 1 a great deal. So she didn't waste her time won ... I dfering what she liked best or wliut j was best or second-best. She just enjoyed each thing in turn, 1 and when she could be of great help 1 to some one it was well known that Winnie was the one to be relied upon. It was so nice to have this all clear at last !

The iirst tiling to catch the eye is a mosque, a mud dome son)" ."0 feet high, at the far corner of the city, its Isolated position making it coiisphu .jus amid the irregular and i-urioiisty shaped house tops. l-'rom this point of vantage is seen a wonderful moving picture of Arabs. Moors and Tuareg* wandering along the narrow streets; camels with rid ers. rcainels with loads, and donkeys with pack's ; pedest rians shuiiling along with their sandals clattering against their heels', and In re and there the red :'ez cap of a French tirai!!"ttr. From the market place rise the shrill voices of- women and boys calling out their wares. Soil!, one must escape from the sun. preferably to the home of a French ollicer. 'These are charming places, mostly built of mud in true Arabic style." with doors and windows sim ilar to those in Morocco, and divans and cushions much in evidence. Toward evening one may visit the market and the. famous old mosque, the site of the former slave market, and also the present-day settlement of ihe freed slaves. Deep sand lies ev erywhere and roads or paths do not exist. Today Timbuktu' has scarcely more than S.<X*0 inhabitants, aiid many of these are nomads who pass through With entile or enpi.se in the great salt trade from the Central Sahara, once the city was much larger, a vor [table desert metropolis. The market place is interesting but far from pleasant. Meat, covered with Hies innumerable, and all sorts of articles of food nre offered for sale. Four or five languages are distinguish able ai times, the guttural soundsj.f the Tuareg being predominant. The' noon sun is blazing hot. but a stin-um brella affords some relief. The natives sit on mats, under the shelter of little grass shanties.

The telephone and telegraph are likewise in use, the latter being em ployed by the merchants. Before the advent of the French, money was little known, barter and ! exchange serving for all transactions. Cowrie shells are even now used ia the market. f? r silver is scarce and paper money is reluctantly accepted.
