LITTLE STORIES FOR BEDTIME " , j: Spotty, the Turtle, Keeps Going r ; (Copyright, 1913. by J. Q. Lloyd.) one step, two steps, three atepa bo, Jour steps, five steps, six atepa got Keen right on and do your best. Mayhap you'll win while there rest. j Spotty the turtle said this over to himself eVery time he felt a little down hearted as ha plodded along the bed ofj the laughing brook, And every time no said it be felt better. "One step; tfo steps," h kept saying over and over, and each time be eid It he took a;;step and then another. They were vary short steps, very short steps In- of-a, iot upotty aj legs are very ahort 'But each one carried him forward Just so much and ha knew that he was Just o much nearer the thing ha was seeking.- Anyway, ba hoped ha was. j Xou see the laughing brook was al most dry. There- was only a little tliVead of water left in it And be cause the eralllng pool gets all its water ,. torn the laughing brook why f courae 6e smiling pool was almost dry, too, arid that was a. dreadful state of af fairs for those who lived there. Bo Hilly Mink and Little Joe Otter and crandfather Frog and Spotty the turtle liijd started up the laughing brook to tpr to find out what the trouble was. Xpu see If the laughing brook would iiever laugh any more and the smiling p$ol would never smile any inore there a nothing for them to do but to go down to the big river, to live, and theyi oian t want to ao tnat, especially Grand father Frog and Spotty the turtle. ASo they started out together to hunt far the cause of the trouble In the lighing- brook, but they didn't stay together, because Billy Mink could go faster than Little Joe Otjer, and Little J Otter could go faster than Grand father Frog, and Grandfather Frog could go faster than Spotty the turtle, s)d because each one wanted to be the first to find the trouble no one would wait for the one behind Mm. And so Spotty the turtle, who baa to carry hts bouse with him, was a long, long way behind the others. But he kept right on going- - fone step, two steps, three steps so! . .... ; -fand ha didn't stop for anything. He crawled over sticks and around big stones, and sometimes when he found a little pool of water he swam. He al ways felt better then, because he can fcWim faster than he can walk. f After a long, long time Spotty the Turtle came to a little pool, where the sunshine lay warm and inviting. There in the middle of It, on a mossy stone, set . Grandfather Frog, fast asleep. Hfe bad thought that he was so far ahead of' Spotty that he could safely rest his tired legs. Spotty wanted to climb J right up beside him and take a nap, too; but he didn't He Just grinned and kept right on going One step, two steps, three steps, sol while Grandfather Frog slept on. By and by, after a long, long time. Spotty came to another little pool, and who should he see but Jerry Muskrat busily opening and eating some fresh water clams which he had found there. He waa so busy enjoying himself that he didn't see Spotty and Spotty didn't say a word but kept right on going, although the sight of Jerry's feast had made him dreadfully hMngry. By and by, after a long, long time, he came to a third little pool with a high, smooth bank, and who should he sue there but Little Joe Otter, who had nude a slippery slide down the smooth bank, and was having a glorious time sliding down into the little pool. Spotty would have liked to have taken Just one slide, but he didn't He dldn t even let Little Joe Otter see him, but kept right on going. One step, two steps, three stops, sot By and by, after a long, long time, he came to a hollow log, and Just happen ing to peep In he aaw some one curled up fast asleep. Who waa It? . Why, Billy Mink, to be sure! You see. Billy thought that he was so far ahead that he might Just as well take It easy, and that was what he was doing. Spotty the Turtle didn't waken 'him. He Just kept right on going the same slow way lie had come all day, and so Just as jolly, round, red Mr. Sun was going to. bed behind the Purple Hills Spotty tho Turtle found the case of the trouble In the laughing Brook and the Smiling Fool.

I'oor lady! I'arhupa she lived to find consolation when, during the War of 1012, the Brit lull drove Dolly in flight from that very White House and devoured with com placency a dinner of forty covers she had prepared for other diners alto gether.' j AlHdlson ' succeeded Jefferson In the presidency. His wife continued her social triumphs. She had the knack not merely of making people seem at ease, but of leading them to put forth the best that was In them, so that at her parties folk scintillated who else where were bores. Without the dignity of Martha Washington or the intel lect of Mrs. Adams she had enough of the one to maintain her position and of the other to be a true help to her husband. She said she was no poli tician, but of her James Q. . Blaine wrote. "She saved the administration of hr husband; held him back from the extremes of Jefferaonlsm, and en a lled him to escape the terrible dilemma of the war of 1812. But for her De Witt Clinton would have been president in iJ2." During that war the American people suirerea the ignominy or having a for eign Invader In their capital, and the British generals Incurred the infamy or wantonly Durning an enemy's un- rortiried city. There waa practically no defense of Washington when the aruisn marcnea upon it such feeble re' aistsnce as there was, was at Bladena burg, and thither President Madison went In person while Mrs. Madlaon re matned In the White House, preparing mat ainner or 40 covers, and packing up in ase or neea. The . need came. With a carriage load of cabinet papers and. all the White Houae allver ahe departed, knocking off with an axe the frame about Stuart's Portrslt of Wash ington and taking that along. "I lonaed rather," said she with spirit, "to have a cannon at every window of the White House." In time the British retired. In fur. ther time the war was ended by the treaty or unent. not knowing of which Anarew jackson prodigiously slauarh ierea tne unuen at New Orleans when peace should have abode with them. The president and his family returned to 'Washington and made their home within eight of the smokin walla of me wnite Houae in a structure known as "the Octagon House," which still stands. There .the treaty of peace waa signed and there waa held a a-reat re ception In honor of the event Ob served of all observers waa Mrs. Mad Ison, who circulated among the brilliant unlforma and gay dresses, as blithe and debonnalre as though she had never been driven from the White House and re fused admission to a tavern because she was wife of "Jimmy Madison, who brought on this damnable war." "Mm Madlaon was every Inch a queen," said me new British minister. Followed then a time of pleasant re tirement at Montpelier, then the death of her husband and new aorrow brought upon her widowhood by her son Payne Todd, who gambled away bis own for tune and the greater part of hers. In her later days Montpelier was lost4 to her and she lived In a house fronting n Lafayette Park in Washington, now oc cupied by the Cosmos club.

(Copyrighted, 1913.) rJOf course her name was Dorothea, but the world knows her as "Dolly." A typical Virginian, accident caused her (4 be born In North Carolina. Famous for gayety and splendor of dress, she wss born a simple Quakeress, and bred rellalouslv to the tonnet and the drao kirtle. Destined to be the first lady of the . land, she for some time kept a Ivmirding bouse in Philadelphia. Re duced to poverty because her father's Quaker faith Impelled htm to sell his slaves, she returned to wealth when she married James Madlnon, whose slaves were counted by scores. Marrying twice lor isurely practical reasons, she learned tft- love both husbands dearly; risking h r life to carefS one dying of yellow fever, and becoming the greatest aid and rrtainstay of. the second w-hen he became (resident of the united States. .With this brief summary of some of the points of Dolly Madison's career let ns tell in more detail of her life after --being left a widow at twenty-four Fhe, with her mother, set up a board ing house in Philadelphia, then the na tional capital, for such statesmen as cbxild be lured from the groser Joys of the tavern. Her beauty attracted at tention wherever she went. "Really, I lolly," said a discreet Quaker friend, 'thee must hide thy face; there are o many staring at thee." Among the ttitrer was James Madison, a substan tial Virginia planter, member of con cress, and a man of such mark in the .-(institutional convention " that men lalled htm "the Father of the Consti tution." Among those who knew Dolly MK-lally was Aaron Burr, also a mem W of coiirrfKS, . and a gentleman of :lYmlng manners destined later to win aatMsV We9v94teVe(Msssae lsVeSeWH(CAeMpV- Madison were won foes, but love that .aiishs st locksmith)! ignored the poll 1 1 '' fmM and lliiilmn Induced P.urr to ntrwluce him to the dirty. "Aaron Burr says that the great little MaW son has asked to be brought to me this evening,' wrote pretty Dolly all In a fluster. Madison was forty-three, a bachelor, scholarly but not slow In lovemaking. News of his suit came to the ears of Lady Martha Washington, who sent for the Widow Todd. ; ' "Dolly, is Untrue," she asked, "that you are engaged to James Madison V "I think so," answered Dolly wlVh becoming hesitation, i "If It be so do not he ashamed of it. We both approve. He will make thee a good husband, .and be the better for being so much the older." With this approval from royalty the courtship progressed apace and a scant year after her first husband's death Dolly was ugaln arlde. An..end- then to all Quaker simplicity. Mr. Madison wanted her to shine In society, and she, nothing loath, became the gayest of the gay. At the presidential mansion "in the later years of Washington's admin istration she was the favored guest. But his rejection of a third term sent her back to retirement at her husband's no ble estate at Montpelier In Virginia, for John Adams, the next president. Was too sturdy a Federalist to have the Re publican Madison about his councils.. . The retirement was scare long enough to teach her the pleasures of a great Virginia estate. Thomas Jefferson was elected president , and Madison recalled, as secretary of state. The . president's wife was dead, his daughters married and living far away. He made the charming Dolly, now approaching her fortieth year, mistress of the White House.
