MR. MOON.
"I hoard a little creature talking the
other day." said Mr. Moon, "aud this
little creature I'm
~1 speaking of was
a little girl named
Anne.

Doesn't he look

B??ks. "Of course that
pleased me. Even
a creature as Important as the moon
likes to he considered handsome. So I
looked my brightest and best when I
came through the clotnl at lust.
"Then she begged her mother to let
her stay up a little longer so she could
see more of me, but It seems she had
already stayed up beyond her time.
"I could see. though, how she wanted
to stay up longer. 1 have heard that
It Is not only children who do not want
to go to bed as early as they should,
but that grown-ups, too, aren't very
fond of going to bed as soou as they
I should go!
"To be sure, children and grown-ups
l must all go to bed before they want
to in order to be strong and well and
happy, but none of them want to go
to bed I do believe.
"Nm, I don't believe nil grown-ups
I want to go to bed as soon as they
should, and that they tiud It hard, too,
\ to make themselves go.
"I've peeped into windows when
| they've been reading interesting books
| ?for you know books aro most inI
terestlng.
"You know that, eh?" Mr. Moon
looked about at the stars.
"We don't know much about books,"
said the stars, "even though we are so
bright."
'Til tell you about books," said Mr.
Moon. "And I'll tell you something
of the way people feel about them.
"I'll tell you ahout books and put
my little speech into verso!"
So Mr. Moon said:
"Books have stories In them.
Hooks have pictures, too.
Whatever In the world
Without them would we dot'*
"Now," said Mr. Moon, "the first two
lines of my verse told you what books
\\;ere, or what hooks are.
"1 gave a very good description. I
think, of hooks, not using too many
words.
"I didn't want to use too many
words, because I thought I should
leave the words for the books.
"That was good of me, I'm sure.
"Now, the last two lines describe the
| way I think people feel about them,

"But I wanted
to tell you about
Anne, and how "Fast Asleep."
uhe hogged tostny
i wp. This I* what she said to her
mother, after she had already stayed
' up a little bit longer still:
| '"The Moon 1b lucky! That's what 1
say!
He's not sent to bed at the end of the
day!'
"I laughed when I Jienru mm, ana

stood:
; " 'But then, of course. It's also true.
That he sleeps all day unlike girls, and
boys, too!'
"I do hope she understands me when
I said that, and I think she did, for I
heard her say us she went off to bed,
and as she was talking with her
| mother:
I '"But then, of course. It's also true,
1 That he sleeps all day, unlike me and
you!'
"And a little while Inter I peeped In
her window and I found her fast fast
asleep, with the Dreamland King
perched on the end of her bed."
Not Necessary.
A little girl wanted to p'jtht some
seeds that she found, so she took them
to her grandfather to read the list.
She is six years old, so he read: Limn
leans, corn, salad, etc,, next horseradish.
She said: "Oh, grandpa, we
haven't any horses. What Is the use
of planting that?"

Fruit Bud* All Right So Far.Examination
of toe fruit buds in the
Cumberland-Martinsburg - Winchester
fruit belt since the late snowstorm and
winter weather shows the buds to be
in the best of condition, with the prospect
excellent for one of the biggest
fruit yields, including both peaches and
apples, according to H. W. Miller, of
Paw Paw. a pioneer in the fruit industry
in this section. He said he
has made a close examination of a
great number or buds cut from trees
in his own orchard and found them
uniformly healthy, well formed, with
the trees' growth and sap coursing so
held back bv the winter weather that
there was little immediate danger of
the buds being pushed forward and
opened to the dangers of later winter.
The opinion of Mr. Miller was echoed
by other growers in the fruit belt.
Apple buds, according to the growers,
seem further advanced toward maturty
than do the peach for some
reason which is not plain to the growers,
although the fruit men interpret
the fact as not indicating any dangerous
condition. The apple yield usually
follows the peach yield by two
months and the apple buds come somo
weeks after the peach buds in the normal
course of events. The advanco
apple growth is particularly true of
certain varieties, the growers report.

Congressman W. G. Brown, who has
been prominently mentioned as a candidate
for Congress from the second
district Of West Virginia, and who
made the nomination speech for John
W. Davis for President at the San
Francisco Convention in 1919, has
been elected president of the Preston
County Farm Bureau. She is the first
woman to head a farm bureau organization
in West Virginia and is probablv
the first woman to head a county
organization of farmers in the entire
country, it is said. Mrs. Brown is the
owner of a large and flourishing dairy
farm in Preston county, taking grcal
interest in pure-bred stock-raising, and
last year was one of the West Virginia
women delegates to the national
meeting of the American Farm Bureau
Federation at New Orleans. Before ?hc
became the bride of Congressman
Brown, Mrs. Brown was rcgnrded as
one of the most popular actresses that
Washington has ever known.
George K. McCormick, lt> years old,
son of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. McCormick;
Ernest Lloyd, Jr., 14, so', of Mr. and
Mrs. Ernest Lloyd, and Richard Ncwcold,
about 18, all of Brunswick, Md.,
; have disappeared from home and arc
being sought by Sheriff James A Jones
1 and his deputies and officials of other
counties along the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. The lads left home December
30th. Newcold once before ran
away and cot as far as Texas before
he was captured and returned to Brunswick.
Some time ago Newcold was
committed to the Maryland School for
Boys, but had recently had been at
' Brunswick. Parents of McCormick
i and Lloyd have offered a reward for
information leading to the discovery
of their sons.

Some people have such wonderfully
good health nothing seems to hurt
them. Others could so easily have flno
cotor and more strength and vigor if
they wonld help nature with Gude's
Pcptd-Mangan. It is a splendid iron
j tonic that physicians have prescribed
for thirty years. It is not an experi
mcnt. It is not merely a temporary
help, because it makes plenty of red
blood and, as evreybody knows, red
i blood is the only sure foundation of
' permanent health and strength. Get
Pepto-Mangan of your druggist?and
take it a few weeks and see how much
! better you feel and look. Sold in liquid
i and tablet form. Advertisement.
The Spinster's Age.
The census registration officer had
learned the spinster's name, occupation
and parentage and at last broached
the dangerous subject of age. Then,
I says the Kpworth Herald, this con1
versation took place:
"Have the Misses Hill, who live next
door, given you their ages?" she
,snapped.
"No, Miss Brown?"
"Well, then, I'm the same aec as
, they."
"That will do," murmured the officer,
and he pmcecdcd to fill out the
space with these words: " Miss Brown,
as old ns the hills."
