What do you think of that r" Jos has scratched his bead thought fully. -Why. they can't do that ma. becanae I'm going to paint the bull house myself. It's going to be light green, with darker green trlmmlnga. I're ordered tbe paint this very day. HI go m and tatk to Hen and Maria." That ain't all." went on Mrs. Hal lam, with mournful triumph In her tones. "Susan and Jamea was la here, and they laughed at painting the bowse red. and they said they wanted their wing painted yellow, with white trlmmlnga, and Lacy she said abe fa rored a cream color and abe guessed abe and Walter would paint their part that color. It"i a dreadful mess all round.'' T ahall put a itop to that- aald Joshua, arising with dignity and witching his coattaila beyond tbe reach of hia wife's restraining hand. Thla house has got to be painted ooe color or none at all. If going to be light rreen." Joshua Hal lam passed through the ball and entered transrerse passage way that led to the north and south wlnga. where bis sons dwelt In their napectlTe homes. Hia knock at Henry's door, brought Mrs. Henry Hallam'a generously pro ' portioned form, snugly arrayed In tbe latest fashion, before hia observant "Gee, Maria.

"If Maria and Susan hare had their choke I don't see why I cant bare my part painted to suit me. Walter 'says be knows where he can get a lot of cream colored paint real cheap." "What will this place look tiker thundered ber father. "It'll look real unique." aaid Lucy calmly as ber father stamped back again through tbe crooked little pas sageway that led to hia own part of the bouse. "They're craiy, every ooe of them.' he aald to hia wife as they sat dowa to rapper that night "Let 'em paint their houses any old color they Ilka. They'll be tbe laughingstock of the Tillage. As near as I can find out there's four painters coming tomor row, and each gang la going to paint- one of the wings. Well, ours will be light greeu." At that moment Maria waa telling Henry that abe was glad theirs waa to be red, and Jim and Susan were tell lng their painter they wanted -a bright golden yellow, and Walter Pratt had told Lucy that he had secured the bar gain In cream color. ,"" " Late the neit afternoon young daughter. Amy, stood by tbe front gate a a her grandfather came through. She was a pretty girl, with frying yellow curls and bine eyes. Now her cbeeka were dimpling with laughter. "Doesn't It look funny, grandfather V abe cried. Does It?" he asked gloomily, sor- reylng tbe light green bouse, with Its projecting wlnga of red and yellow and cream. It looks Just like a salad," giggled Amy. tucking her hand In hia arm. "There's green for lettuce, and red for beets, and yellow for hard boiled eggs, nd cream for the dressing. I don't believe they know how funny It looks." "Suppose yoo tell tbem, then." sug gested Joshua grimly be led tbe way Into the house. A half hour later Amy retained, still mClng. Tre told them It looks like a salad." she aald. "and I believe they know It but tbey don't seem to know what to da Mother cried and aaid she would never bare thought of hav ing hers different If Aunt Maria hadn't decided on red. Aunt Soe aaid she thought red and yellow waa nlg gery, and Aunt Maria" Amy paused and stifled a disrespectful laugh. "Wnat'd Maria eayr asked Joanna hopefully. "She didn't aay anything, but she threw book at the cat and then got mad because tha pages were torn. She didn't hit the cat" 'Just like Maria to get peerlah be cause she couldn't hit the cat" mur mured Mrs. Hallam tearfully. "I got an Idea," aald Joabua happily. "Ton call all tbe folks in here. Amy; tell 'em I got something to say." When tbey were gathered. Hen and Maria, Jim and Susan and Lory and Walter, Joshua Hallam surveyed tbem benevolently over hia spectacles. "Children, Amy. here, aays the house looks like a salad. Thla won't do. We're the laughingstock of Llttl River tonight . Now, we're a patrhr work family somehow. Each one of us goes to make up tbe boll quilt see? if we don't agree tbe quilt's going to be a crazy one, with all sorts of clashing colors same aa this house. Now. If we're going to have patchwork house, let's have tbe colors look well together. Just the same aa we all have to make our dispositions flt together see?" Tbey nodded shamefacedly, seeking each, other's encouraging smile with furtive glances. Suppose we get Dibble and Jones nd tbe rest of 'em to figure on paint ing the bouse and. let him bring la all the colors each one wants see? Tbey can fix the colors In different P'sces so they'll look all right There's the main body of tbe house and wings no color." Pe green," murmured bla children with one accord.

As with electricity, wt ben her Irate I know only the reuts of theiwwer and some mctbi'd of Its tte. Hewevcr. ur Inquiry suggested tbe question of bow much a small magnet can pull. To test this I tied tbe ar mature to tbe "platform" of an ordi nary weighing scale for fsm'lly use. Then I tied a strong cord to tbe loop of the magnet put the cord through book screwed to tbe table and pulled. When I was .not trying fo take a photograph I could pull It down to Are and three-quarter pounds, and there It broke away. For an ciponure of ten seconds I could not bold it steadily enough at a point much U-voud that shown In the accompanying Illustra tion. .
