THE HOUSEKEEPER Tho frugal snail, with forecast of re pose, ' Carries his house with . him' vhwe'er he goes; Peepu out and if there comeaa show er of rain, o Iletreats to his small domicile again. Touch but a tip of him, a horn 'tis well He curls up In his sanctuary shell. He's his own lundlord, his own ten ant; stay Long; as ho will, he dreads no quarter day. Himself he boards and lodges; both invites An'l feasts himself; sleeps with him self o nights. Ho snares the upholsterer trouble to procure Chattels; himself, is his own furniture, And his solo riches. Wheresoe'er he rocom, Knock when you will he's sure to bo at homo.

"Most children are kept back by their parents' love of the ridiculous start, your neighbors are going to say, that sounds like an amazing state ment; nevertheless it's a true state ment. Let me explain. "Mothers like to hear a child talk broken English what is called 'baby talk.' They are captivated by mispro nounciations and mistakes in general. It's so 'cute,' so 'adorable.' "It's the same love for the ridicur lousv that humanity displays in gen eral when the clown at the circus stumbles over his own feet. "And that has been, vso far, the basis on which most children grow up. "If you insist on accuracy from tl 'You are robbing the child of its child hood' my mother heard that on all sides. 'Or people will say, "What did the other children think of you? Were they not jealous?' "No, they were not. 1 1 never thought I knew anything there's too much to know to get away, with a thought like that." And what does Miss Stoner think of men and love, and marriage. Men are great fun to romp with to observe. Love? Something to be unafraid of. Marriage? Well there's plenty of time to think about that. Heart decorated booths will be placed about the rooms and from these a menu of ices, cakes, candy, lemonade and sandwiches will' be served during the evening, tho customary colors of the holiday to be observed as far as possible.

When Peter FInigin went out to do the chores one morning recently he was mystified' by the sight of a large number of huge snowballs scattered over his farm. On the 20-acre field there were hundreds of them, ranging in size from six to 18 inches in diameter. Leading up to each snowball was a streak of bare ground showing the distance it had traveled in forming. Mr. FInigin and neighbors who gath ered to study the odd spectacle, decided that the wind which had blown a gale the night before had whipped up small particles of "good packing" snow and started them down the field, some of the particles gathering up additional snow until balls had been formed that were too heavy for the wind to move further. All the paths of the snowballs were in the same general direction that th wind had been blowing. To record the unusual freak of wind and snow, Mr. Finigin sent lor the cor respondent of u Buffalo newspaper, who counted more than 1,000 snowball3 of more than 10 inches in diameter.
