Deworai Bellefonte, Pa., March 22, SS Mothers Might Learn Antidotes. A young mother, during the iniancy of her first born, set herself the task of committing to memory antidotes for the commonest poisons known, es- pecially those that it might be pos- sible for children to come into contact with. In addition to this, she mem- orized methods of aiding drowning and injured persons. In fact, learred | sort of a “first aid to the injured” set of rules. Would not this be an excel | lent plan for all mothers?—Good | Housekeeping Magazine. Test for Diamond. To test diamonds the following 1s given: “Make a hole in a card with | 2 needle and look at the card through ! the diamond or imitation. If it is a | genuine stone you will see but one | hole; if it is an imitation you will see | two holes. Or, place the object to be examined on your finger and with a | magnifying glass look through it. If | genuine you can not see the grain of the finger; the grain perfectly,” i Providence in Human Affairs. | If a great change is to be made in human affairs, the minds of men will be fitted to it, the general opinions and feelings will draw that way. Ev- ery fear, every hope, will forward it; and then they who persist in oppos- ing this mighty current in human af- fairs will appear rather to resist the decrees of Providence itself than the decrees of men.—Edmund Burke. Nothing To It. Patience—This paper says that the French language is more suitable for use when telephoning than the Eng- lish has been discovered since London and Paris were linked by telephone.

Gude—"Isn't there some one here who will help us to keep up inter. est in the church?” Deacon Tightwad (suddenly awakening)—"1, for one, am prepared to raise the rates to 8 per cent. on real estate loans and 10 per cent. on chattel mortgages, if the other money lenders in the congregation will co-operate.”—Puck.

A whoop of mingled rage, terror and pain penetrated to the upper re- gions and heralded the coming of Elizabeth, Elizabeth's mother, for whom the sound, familiar though it was, has never been robbed of its terrors, ran out of her bedroom and half way down the stairs to meet her waiting offspring. She sank down upon one of the steps and instantly a pair of frantic arms were locked about her knees and a Dutch cropped head and a huge pink hair ribbon were buried in her lap. Elizabeth's mother gathered into her protecting arms the head, the pink bows and as much as possible of the plump, pathetically heaving body. “What's the matter with mother's baby?” she asked tenderly. “Wow, wow, wow!" Elizabeth. Elizabeth's mother clasped her lit- tle daughter closer to her. “Are you hurt, darling?” she queried, anxious- 1y. “Wow, wow, wow!” The pink bows vibrated violently, but indefinitely. “Elizabeth, dear,” said her mother, rying to uncover the hidden face, “you must stop crying and tell me Are you hurt?” The head merely burrowed deeper into the friendly lap. “It's—it's my tooth,” gasped Elizabeth, finally. “Your tooth, sweetheart?” ex- claimed her mother. “Does it ache?” “No, 1 don't guess 0.” The answer came in a tone that was something between a bellow and a sniffle. answered “Then what's the matter?” Eliza- | beth's mother was growing slightly | peevish under the strain. “Elizabeth, you've got to stop howling and tell | me.” * She raised the tear-stained face and held it firmly between her two | hands. “Now, tell me,” she said, authori | tatively. “If your tooth doesn't ache, | what are you shrieking about?” | ‘There was a fresh outburst of tears, but with the flood came the words: | “It's=—oh, it's coming out!” Elizabeth's mother gave a little sigh She, kissed the top of the | of relief. anguished head. cry about, precious,” fortingly. new one in its place.” “Oh, 1 don’t mind the tooth,” wail- ed Elizabeth, “but Tom said—oh, dear! Oh, dear me! We was all out playin'—" “We were out playing,” Elizabeth's mother, gently. “Yessum. We was all out playin’ and Tom he come along—" “Tom came along, baby,” Elizabeth's mother said, patiently. “Yessum. And Tom he come along and he said—" The remainder of the story was lost in another whoop of woe, Elizabeth's mother rose and led her small daughter to the bathroom and bathed her face thoroughly. “That's nothing to she said, com- After that she took the very woe- | begone infant into the mother’s own room and sat down in the big rockinz chair with Elizabeth in her lap and rocked her until the sobs had ceased. When the much-to-be-desired result had been gained she went to her dresser and took out a paper bag of soft molasses candy. Elizabeth's eyes glistened. “Now,” said Elizabeth's mother, “we are going to have a perfectly beautiful treat, just us two.” Fairly radiating joy, Elizabeth bur- ied her more or less uncertain little tooth in the piece of candy. Then she removed the candy hastily, gave it one lecok and immediately set up a shriek that made the plaster nearly start from the walls. “Wow, wow, wow!” She took up the cry where she had dropped it a short time before. “Wow, wow, wow! My tooth's gone, and Tom said—" The shriek ceased as suddenly as it had begun. Two large tear drops were arrested midway down her fat cheeks and a smile, beginning in a very small way, grew and grew until it threat- ened to bisect her face. She ran to the mirror and regarded intently the gap left by the departed tooth. “Why, mother—Tom thaid, he thaid that when my tooth came out—he ‘thaid that he knew a girl who looked just like me, with little poppy eyes and pink hair ribbonth, and when her tooth came—that when my tooth came out—that when her tooth wath gone—that 1 wouldn't know how to do anything but just whithle! He thaid that when that girl's tooth that look- ed like me wath gone she couldn't ever talk again. And, mother, it waithn't tho! It kind o' hitheth when 1 do it, but I can talk! [I can talk jutht ath much ath ever!” Elizabeth's mother fled hastily into the next room and buried her head in a thick bath robe which was hang- ing in the corner of the closet. “The eternal feminine!” she chok- ed. “How her father would enjoy it if I should tell him! But I don't be- lieve I'll tell him. [I think this is a case in which only a mother can thor oughly sympathize.” The Cause. “How do you account for chose aalf dozen houses of yours m the lLlock going off so soon?” “Hecause in them " nnd the six ~ellarg."” : €3 Nature's Blunders.
