For the Children
Tale of Sandy Brown,
a Noble Collie Dog.
Sandy Brown is always happy.
You can't make him cross and glum.
Tease him and he won't be snappy
He's a dandy tor a chum.
Doesn't care If boots are muddy.
Though his eyes and wits are keen.
He's no such a "fuddy-duddy"
As to ask If boots are clean.
Bandy saved my life last winter.
I thought that the Ice was sound
And fell through, but he's a sprinter
And soon had me on dry ground.
Not a single streak of yellow
In him can you ever strike.
Sandy's just the kind of fellow
That a fellow's bound to like!
He sticks closer than a brother;
Right by me you'll see him jog
Rain or shine. There's only mother
Good as Sandy Brown, my dog.
St Nicholas.
The Hypnotic Trick.
If you have in your -ompuny any per
sons good natured enough to appreciate
a joke on himself the following I rick
will furnish much fun: Announce that
you will hypnotize any friend who is
willing to follow your directions. Re
tire from the room and take two cups
and saucers. Put your own carefully
aside. Then take the other saucer and
hold it over a lamp or candle until the
under part is covered with soot. Put
the cup back in the saucer FBI the
cups with water. Then tell your friend
who is to be hypnotized that it is im
possible for the spell to work unless he
follows yourdirections exactly. Present
him with a cup and saucer. Tell him
to hold these in his left hand and. look
ing straight into your eyes and no
where else, to do exactly what you do.
Then dip the fingers of your right
hand in the water, rub Ibem on the
under side of your saucer and make
cabalistic passes over your forehead
and cheeks. The patieot to be hypuo
tized will do the same, and as the uu
der side of his saucer is thick with
soot every cabalistic pass will leave
its murk. The effect on the part of the
company, who are entirely unprepared
for this denouement, soon enlightens
the victim.
Game of Broken Hearts.
Heart shaped red cards about 3 by
2 inches are provided The children
are seated in a line or a circle. Kvery
fourth child is given a pair of scissors
and each, one a heart shaped card on a
book or magazine. Kach child is to cut
his heart twice across so as to make
four pieces. The cuts should be per
fectly straight, hill should intersect
each other and may go in any direc
tion. After the heart is cm once the
pieces should be held together till the
second cut has been made. Kach child
then mixes His pieces and passes I hem
to his neighbor on the right. At a sig
nal each child trios to put his puzzle
together, and the first child who suc
ceeds calls out to that effect. Kach
child then mixes his puzzle and passes
it on to bis right hand neighbor as be
fore. This is kept up for a half hour,
when time is called and the child with
the biggest score receives a prize.

THE SLEEP
WALKERS By M. QUAD
Copyright. 1911. by Associated Lit
erary Press.
The village of Greenberg numbered
mong Its inhabitants one Joseph Tay
lor and his wife. Time was when Jo
seph was a hardworking man and lie
and his wife were respected by all
Then he broke his leg. and tin- acci
dent made a great change in him. i'eo
ple didn't sympathize with him as he
felt they should, and some said lie had
been very careless, and before the leg
was mended he was feeling a martyr.
He was also down on I he world in
general and the people of (Jreeuherg in
particular. What completely finished
him was the fact that he was dunned
for two or three debts he owed.
"Susan, just think of it'." he exclaim
ed. "1 take a job of fixing over Elder
Conrtwrigbt's barn cheaper than any
body else. 1 had to use old boards to
make a scaffold. I hadn't niore'n got
up on that scaffold when the durned
thing came down with a kerwosh."
"She did. Joe; she did."
"And I broke mj' leg."
"Broke it like a stick."
"And I suffered for two months, and
nobody cared a cent. They went l it; lit
on and had a camp meeting and a c.tr
cus same as if 1 hadn't been hurt."
"That's what they did. Joe."
"And now jest because 1 can limp
about ag'in ihey dun me for old debts."
" 'Pears that way."
"But I have it. They shan't keep
me down. I'm going to make a living
right here in this town, and 1 hain't
going to work for it either."
A few days after the above conver
sation Mr. Taylor announced to certain
idlers of his acquaintance that he had
become a sleepwalker. That broken
leg had brought it about. On two dif
ferent nights he had left his bed and
gone prowling about and was so fast
asleep that he would hardly credit his
wife's statement that he had entered
the garden of Elder Bliss and picked
and brought home a basket of veg
etables. There was I he plunder, how
ever, to prove that he had walked.
It was soon known all over the vil
lage that Joe Taylor walked in iTis
sleep and that it would be dangerous
for anybody to suddenly wake him up
That broken leg had left him with a
weak heart, and a rude awakening
might finish him. hi his nightly wan
derings Mrs. Taylor followed him
about, but was careful not even to
whisper to him. She returned home
with him, saw him back to his bod
and -then let him wake up naturally
For a time the village was rather
proud of its novelty. It could boast of
the only somnambulist for fifty miles
around. Various people interviewed
Joe as to how he felt when asleep
l what he thought when he woke up.
if he had any perception at all when
sloshing around, and the local week I v
paper wrote him up to flic extent ft
a column. However, as time pas-ed
the novelty of the tiling wore off. and.
too. the sleepwalker became bolder
There wasn't a field or garden or
smokehouse he didn't plunder. He en
tered cellars, and he stripped clothes
lines. Sometimes he was seen at his
work and sometimes not. His wife
was always with him. and when
caught red handed it was fur her l
say:
"Hush, hush; Yon know, how he is.
A sudden shock maynean death "
That went for a time, but one night'
when was caught with fifty pounds
of pork on bis shoulder he was air
rested and taken to the village lockup
When arraigned before a justice of
the peace a point of law came up A
sleepwalker was a person acting un
consciously. He knew not what he
did. There was no criminal intent, and
therefore there was no crime.
This decision settled matters as far
as the law was concerned, but there
were certain citizens that believed they
had another remedy. No one now lie
lieved that Joe Taylor was a sleep
walker. That excuse was played out.
lu deciding for Joe the court had
decided for others. If it was no crime
for him to sleepwalk then it wasn't
for any citizen of the village. One
eveuing fourteen men. all sleepwalk
ers, called 91 the Taylor house Their
eyes stared. Their lips were tightly
drawn. They shook their heads as if
their dreams were bad. There was a
fifteenth who was wide awake. He
explained to Joe and his wife lhat
sleepwalking had become catching and
that whatever the fourteen somnam
bulists did they could not be held re
sponsive for.
But what are they going to do?"
was asked.
The question was answered by Joe
and his wife being picked up like bags
of oats and carried to the mill pond.
Not a word from one of the fourteen.
Some sighed and moaned in their sleep,
but no talking.
"All have weak hearts and must not
be awakened too suddenly." whispered
the fifteenth.
Mr. and Mrs. Taylor were lifted up
and flung into the water. They were
hauled out and flung in again They
were toyed with until they rheXtH and
gasped aud coughed and stran.!c.' and
were half drowned Then the four
teen silently disappeared, and the fif
teenth whispered:
"You'll get this every time there is
any further sleepwalking. It's a sure
cure."
And so it was. Next morning Joe
Taylor limped to work, and thence on
to the day of bis death a brass band
might have played in his bedroom
without awakening him for midnight
saunter.
