"Bow-wow," barked Gyp, another Dog. "I am wagging my tall," said Pat. "I would like -so much to play with you." And I am shaking my paw at you,' said Gyp. "I would like to play with you Just as much as you would like to play with me." "Qood-good-good," barked Pat. And Gyp danced around very hap pily. They were both young dogs and they loved to play and frisk about. It was a snowy day, nnd the snow was soft uud'tlght. Gyp and Pat were both white fox terriers; Pat had one black spot on bis back, and Gyp had u brown spot over one eye. But In the snow they looked almost as white as the snow did. "Let's play snowballs," snld Pat. "Do you mean throw snowballs?" said Gyp. "That's Just what I mean," suld Pat. So they began lifting the soft snow with their paws and throwing It at each other. Such fun as they had! They frolicked In the snow, and they put their hends right Into the snow banks. Then they would take turns In play ing Dead Dog, and one would lie down while tho other covered him up with a llttlo snow. Then he would stay quite still until the dog who had covered him up would burk, "Wake up, wake up you sleepy head, "We're all through playing that you nro dead." With a bound they'd both start play lug and frisklug In the snow again Such a time as thoy had. Soon two little gills came walking by. Thoy were both carrying books anil pencil boxes, for they hud been to school. "There's Pat," snld the little girl, named Helen. "And there's my Gyp," said the sec ond little girl, whose name was Doro thy. "How did they ever happen to be together I wonder?" asked Helen. For while Helen and Dorothy were the very boBt of friends, and their dogs loved In piny with each other, still they lived quite far apart. They didn't usually go to each other's homes unless Dorothy (mil Helen were going to play together. "Well," suld Helen, "I say we'll hove a tea party. I'm sure mother will be willing. She snld I could ask you very soon. That wns this morning, anil this iiftei-noon' means very soon." "All right," snld Dorothy, "I'd love to come."

The English teacher was in the habit of reading the day's lesson aloud before the pupils recited it. They were studying Macbeth. In this tragedy Shakespeare Introduces several storm scenes. The one preceding had been a mighty one, where Macbeth curses his luck and fate. Everyone was very much impressed with his wrath. The teacher read on, not noticing the change of scene. "Thunder!" she exclaimed, and stop ped. The class laughed, but almost as soon as the young teacher realized her mistake in accent, it would be hard to say which laughed the hard est, the pupils or the teacher. Indian apolis News.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streakod and faded hair la grand mother's recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living In an age when a youth ful appearance is of the greatest advantage. Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the massy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready to use product, improved by the addition of other Ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" for about 60 cents a bottle. It Is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with It and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morn ing tne gray nalr disappears, but what delights the ladles with Wyeth's Sage nnd Sulphur Compound, la that, be sides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, tt also pro duces that soft lUBtro and appearance of abundance which Is so attractive. This ready-to-use preparaUon Is a de lightful toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appearance. It Is not Intended for the cure, mitigation or prevention of disease. It Works! Try It Till! how to loosen a lore, tender corn so It lift out without pain. No humbug! Any corn, whether hard, soft or between the toes, will loosen right up and lift out, without a particle of pain or soreness. This drug Is called freezone and Is a compound of ether discovered by a Cincinnati man. Ask at any drug store for a smatl bottle of freezone, which will cost but a trifle, but Is sufficient to rid one's feet of every corn or callous. Put a few drops directly upon any tender, aching corn or callous. In stantly the soreness disappears and shortly the corn or callous will loosen and can be lifted off with the fingers. This drug freezone doesn't eat out the corns or callouses but shrivels them without even irritating the sur rounding akin. . Just think! No pain at all; no sore ness or smarting when applying it or afterwards. If your druggist don't have freezone have him order it for you. Experience.

Sparkling and vivacious merry, bright, alert a good, clear skin and natural, rosy, healthy complexion are assured only by pure blood. If only every man and woman could be induced to adopt the morning inside bath, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls, with pasty or muddy com plexions; instead of the multitudes of nerve wrecks, rundowns,'" brain fags" and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of roBy-cheeked people everywhere. An inside bath is had by drinking each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kid neys and ten yards of bowels the pre vious day's indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons, thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Those subject to sick headache, bil iousness, nasty breath, rheumatism, cold; and particularly those who hare pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store which will cost but a trifle, but Is sufficient to demonstrate the quick and remark able change In both health and appear ance, awaiting those who practice in ternal sanitation. We must remem ber that inside cleanliness is more im portant than outside, because the skin does not absorb impurities to con taminate the blood while the pores in the thirty feet ot bowels do.
