"Since you're here," said the Sec ret Service man, "and there isn't a war on now, or anything of that kind, I might take you over to see one of our destroyers, 'heap big brave.' My brother's commander of one, in the harbor now." ' "Could I?" ! He smiled at the boy's eagerness. "I don't know why not The navy is there to protect the Indians just as much as it is the white men. fFoiGirls to.Make Homecraft Pretties for June Frock ' CAROLYN. SHERW1N BAILET You 'want to look as flower-like and attractive as a June day, do you not, now that summer is here? And the charm and sweetness of girl hood lies in daintiness, which the girl herself can achieve,. Here are some June hints for it - Crystal : flowers will bloom quite as well on last year's figured or gandy as on a new one, so get it out, press it, and go to work.. You will need some very small crystal or white beads, fine, strong sewing silk, and a bead needle slender enough to go easily through the beads.' Holding your frock in sections in a large embroidery hoop, sew these beads around the outlines of the And, since youVe finding out what this country is, you'd better find out what-is helping to keep it so." So, telling Hunting Eye of all the deeds of the allied navy during the war, he led the way down to the wharf and, boarding the destroyer, he showed the lad all the marvelous mechanism of a modern fighting craft . ) "Here," he said to Hunting Eye, "jump up into the saddle of this tor pedo tube. See, that wheel? That turns the tube to aim. Out of that very torpedo tube, you're sitting on, jmany a torpedo has been fired," land he explained to the Indian lad the workings of that modern missile of destruction the torpedo. "Are there ' any Indians in the navy?" asked Hunting. Eye. "A few," said the commander of the destroyer, who was standing by, listening, "but a good - many more are in the army. Both in the United States and in Canada, your red brothers came to the front promptly. They fought beside the whites in good shape. " But, as the sea-coast tribes get more in the way of civil ized conditions, we reckon i on get ting some good sailors out of them. There are some fine fellows in the British Columbia tribes. Do you want to join us?' 1 "Not now," said , Hunting Eye. "But I wilt fight for my tribe and my country, some day." (Tomorrow Tell Birds by Flight.) printed roses and the leaves, taking your stitches loosely so as not to draw the material. You will be sur prised at the shining result. You will have a jewelled frock., hould you have a new frock, do get the printed net that comes this year in flower patterns like a gar den. This is beautifully adapted to beading,, and looks like the gown of a fairy when you finish. The new handkerchiefs are of all the colors of the rainbow, and are intended to stick out of the pocket of your middy blouse or of your sports skirt. If you buy them, you can have only a few, for they are expensive. But you may make as many as you like. Buy a third of a yard of rather sheer linen in the colors you like. It will be a yard wide and will make three handker chiefs. Roll a very narrow hem, and sew on a tiny edging of lace or tatting,v over and over, with this hem. Or you can draw six threads one inch from the edge and, basting it carefully, make a narrow hem stitched edge. Flower scent bags may be fas tened in your frocks as they hang in the clothespress. Make small bags of ribbon, and fill them with cotton wadding dusted thickly with a good violet and orris sachet pow der. Even better will it be to fill the bags with dried rose leaves. Pin these dainty scent packages in your best things, and the frocks will be as fragrant as flowers when you put them 6ft. 1 s (Tpmorrow Clothes Line Reel.) wins J LUCY y FITCH PEBKIN5 How" the Japanese Twins Pray. The Temple was one big, shadowy room, with t tall red columns all about - - r "It's just like a great forest full oi trees, isn't it?" Taro whispered to Take, as they went in. "It almost scares me," Take whis pered back; "it's so big." Directly in front of the entrance there was another bell. A long red streamer hung' from its clapper,' and under it was a great box with bars over the top. On the box there perched a great white rooster! The Father pulled the red stream er and rang the bell. Then he threw a -piece of money into the. box. It fell with a great noise. .Cock-a-doodle-doo," ' crowed the roosterl He. seemed; very much WHY ? Is the Spilling of Salt Considered Unlucky? (Cbpyrlsht, 1MB, By The Whealer Syn. dict. Inc.) The superstition connected with the spilling of salt duing a meal has the same origin, as that concerning 13 people at a table the Last Supper. But, unlike the tatter belief there is no founda tion for it 'in history. None of the accounts of the Last Supper ecords any eoilllng of the salt by Judas and it is doubtful whether Leonardo de Vinci, in his famous fresco of Christ and His apostles, intended to attach any signifi cance "to the overturned salt cellar beyond indicating nervous ness on the part of Judas. Leon ardo's painting having been ac cepted as an historic replica of the Supper, it is only natural that the incident of the overturned salt should have been implanted in the public's mind as an integral part of the meal and that it should have been connected with Judas and his subsequent ill for tune. . The custom of throwing the salt over the left shoulder in arder to dissipate any evil influ ence has an origin which, ante dates Leonardo by many hun dreds of years. The pagan Ro mans considered that salt was sacred to the Penates, the house hold gods, and that to spill it during a meal would incur the wrath of these gods not upon the spiller, but upon the person toward whom it was ' spilled.. Casting a pinch of salt over the left shoulder the shoulder, of evil was therefore an act of politeness, for it was supposed to lift the curse from the person to ward whom the salt felt and to fasten it upon the spiller himself. It ' was doubtless this ' ancient Latin belief which caused Leon ardo de Vinci to include the over turned salt iq his painting of the Last Supper. 'Tomorrow's question: Why do flowers have smells? pleased about the money, though it was meant for the priests and not for him. "The rooster is saying thank you," cried Take. "Hush," said her Mother. Then the Father drew from his sleeve a little rosary of beads. He placed it over his hands, and bowed his head in prayer while grannie and mother and babv and the twins stood near him and kept very still When he had finished, a priest came up. . , ; (, .. ' The "father; bowed to- the priest "Will you show us the way to the shrine of Kwannon?" he asked. Away off at the farther end of the temple, the twins could see a great altar. Banners and lanterns hung about it, and people were kneeling on the floor before) it, praying. Be fore the altar was an open brazier with incense burning in it. "Come this way," said the priest. He led them to the altar. The father took Bot'Chan front his mother, and held him in his arms. The priest said a pray' to Kwan non, and blessed the baby. Then the father threw incense rings on the little fire that burned in the brazier before the altar. Wreaths of smoke begad to curl about their heads. The air was filled with the sweet odor of it Some of it went up Bot'Cban's nose. It smarted. Bot'Chan didn't like it. He had be haved beautifully up to that time, and I am sure if the iucense hadn't gone up his nose he would have kept on behaving beautifully. But it did?l and Hot Chan sneezed just as the priest finished the prayer. . Then he gave a great scream. Then another, and another. Three of them! The priest smiled. But thefather didn't smile. He gave Bot'Chan back to his mother just as quickly as he could. ; iv He said, "the honorable worship pers will be disturbed. We must go out at once." They hurried back to the entrance and found their clogs, and the mo ment they were outdoors again, in the sweet, fresh- aid, Bot'Chan cud dled down on his mother's back and went to sleep without another sound.
