" I have my friends and 1 also have many enemies.' Billie Brownie smiled to himself, and yet no one In the world could help but any that Mother Ocean was certainly great. "You see, there Is a lot to me," said M other Ocean. "Now, when there Is a lot to a person It means that that person has character and brains and all that sort of thing. “ But when • say that there Is a tot to me I mean not only such things I mean there is a great deal of sixe to me. "Perhaps I shouldn't say It In Just that fashion. But I'm not fussy about how I speak. I am too powerful to mind. "W hy, I have had people traveling upon nte and they have talked most beautifully. They have used tine wonts aod they have talker) really very grandly. "But that didn't bother me. I let them know that I was superior to that. So I have tossed and rocked und have told the Wave children to have as rough a party as they wisher) and then It was more than the tine talkers could do to keep up such grand talk. "They just didn't say anything, ex cept : “ 'Oh. dear, but 1 feel poorly? "And there Is nothing very brainy about that. "W ell, as I was saying, I have my friends and my enemies. My Wave children are my family, so I'm not speaking of them. "They love me I Just think what It means to have a mother who lets you be Just as rough as ever you wish. Ua. ha, that's something) “O f course, some might not think so, but I do! “1 want to tell you about my friends now, though. "A little girl was going sailing with her brother In one of my bays. She was talking to an old, ofd naval gen tleman. “ ‘I hope It doesn't get too rough,' she said. 'But I also hope It doesn't get too calm. “ 'I don't care to be becalmed and sit out doing nothing on the w ater for hours at a time.' “ 'I suppose not,' tha old naval gen tleman said, 'but do you know I have lived almost all of my long life at sea "I Am Too Powerful to Mind," Said Mother Ocean. and I have never been bored with the sea for a moment ) “ 'I've always loved It better tliun anything else in the world—no mutter how It Is? "Now, that old gentleman. Billie Brownie, I consider one of my friends." “And well you m ig h t’ said Billie Brownie. “Then." continued Mother Ocean. “ I most tell you of the men who arrived at a little seaport town aome few days ago. “They had been on a long, long ocean Journey. They bad come from the Far East. Some Food Suggestions f B y N E L L IE M A X W E L L | N M ANY homes the price of good * milk keeps the poor mother from buying what her children really need.
