the pearl and the

' of which, accord

trologers, come
under the planet

the Moon, and
hence possess
powerful psychic
rations.
It was held that when these (rem 9
were worn by right of birth they
Jiftd a profound effect upon the
Intuitive faculties of the wearers,
o that they could not only sense
'the thoughts of others but actually
envision events In the future. They j
were also believed to stimulate
'creative ability, being particularly
favorable to the work of writers
and composers. I
The Orient pearl, which Is form-;
ed by a substance secreted by a
patient little bivalve living chiefly I
In the waters along the coast of
Ceylon, has been cherished for Its
beauty and rarity by the people of
all ages. The early Egyptians and
Hebrews gave It first place among
I precious gems; the Chinese valued
!it equally with their beloved Jade;
the Greeks set pearls In the ears
of their marble goddesses, and the
Christians gave their choice pearls
for the glorification of their altars.
And when the Spanish first reached
this country they found the Indian
natives wearing pearls and setting
them In their ornaments of relig
ious worship.
Incidentally. It Is chiefly to the
pearl thut Americans owe the dis
covery of this continent, since It
was to And a Northwest passage
to India and Us great treasure chest
of pearls that Columbus planned
his voyage.
'Although always valued chiefly
for Its beauty, the peart also held
an Important place In the medical
pharmacopea of the past. Pearls
distilled In water are still used In
the relief of stomach aliments In
China, and at one time they were
given In this form to the Insane
In order to restore their reason
probably through the belief in the
pearl's connection with the Moon,

the Individual efforts of the mem

Many garden clubs have found
It 'n excellent plan to secure the
services of u man from a nursery
or seed house familiar with the
plants and with other phases of
gardening to give information and
answer questions. An Interesting
plan to airange for a garden

As for the Moonstone. H was long
thought that this stone contained
an li age of the Moon, which grew
mysteriously from a mere spot to
a full circle with the waxing and
waning of that luminary. Because
of this characteristic, testified to
by many,- Including Pliny, the
moonstone Is a sacred stone In
India, never displayed for sale ex
cept on a yellow cloth, the color
yellow likewise being deemed sac
red. Like the Moon, the Moonstone Is
also supposed to be very powerful

to the great disappointment of

label should contain the botanical
name as well as the common
name. If one Is to bo admitted
Id it be the latter. Ofien col

In other localities are applied to

Identify Plants Kow.
Now comes that Interesting per
iod In garden work when wecdllngs
and seedlings aro separated, the
one from the other. Kven If the
weeds appear first, it is well not
to attempt any weeding at all until
wll-defined rows of seedling plants
appear above the ground.
One of the great advantages of
starting seeds Indoors beforo the
outdoor season begins is that one
becomes acquainted with tho ap
pearance of the young seedling
plants, for plants In their early
stages their baby period look
much alike. There Is a certain
weed, which, when it appears
above the ground, looks almost like
a young beet, and many a weedllng
looks and is close kin to some flow
er seedling.
If gardens arc consistently and
persistently weeded from this oarty
time until about tho Fourth of
July, the whole problem of weeding
Is settled.
Aid to Party Ordering
When the menu for the wedding
reception Is to be prepared at
home, the following table will
prove helpful in estimating the
amount of food needed:
A gallon of salad serves 40
people.
A gallon of Ice cream serves 30
people.
A gallon of coffoe serves 30
people,
A loaf of bread usually makes
about 24 small sandwiches. From
the June American Hume.
The Iry Skin.
The dream for the dry skin must
he made from oils very much like
the oils of the face Itselff so that
It will mingle with the gland secre
tions and become a part of them,
according to Marralno de Plnaud,
noted authtorlty on beauty ques
tions. In this way, hIig says, the
dry skin will absort from tho deli
cate oils of the cream-as much as
It needs for lubrication and will
become" soft and smooth. Stimu
lated by the additional oils, the
glands tend to becomo less slug
gish and to function normally.
Hub tho soluble cream on your
face, scoop up a llttlo water and
wash away the cream. That sim
ple process Is sufficient.
For Kitchen Kfldency
A word of advice to the new
bride regarding the care of cook
ing utensils: After a certain
period of usefulness has passed
and they become burned and
broken, do not retire them to a
far corner of tho kitchen shelves,
but as a systematic housewife, who
keeps only on hand those In good
working order, discard the old and
broken utensils, kettles and odds
and ends that are no longer useful
and make space for the remaining
articles, which In these days of
small kitchens, uro all that should
be retained.
These should be kept near the
sink or the range, or wherever
they arc most needed, with the
knives, spoons, frying pans, ket
tles and their covers, and similar
implements, where the cook can
reach them easily. The larger
and heavier pieces should then be
placed on tower shelves, and those
that are only used occasionally on
the shelves that arc mure diffi
cult to reach.
Humane Society
"There is a Hand of Mercy at
Cambridge, Mass., fostered by the
police force, and It has 300 mem
bers, children of Mast Cambridge.
Not a boy In that locality dares to
maltreat an animal, because," says
tho lioston Tost, "the whole Hand
of Mercy is on his neck It he
tries It."
This Is how It came about.
Patrolman George Patten caught
a boy tying a ran on a dog's tall.
Mo took the boy tu the police sta
tion, where nn Impromptu trial
was held, with ('apt. Timothy F.
Ieaby acting hh judge, and the boy
was sentenced to go out and per
form a kind deed In behalf of an
animal. He was told to report
back when he had done it,
The following day ho appeared
with a sorry-looking pup with a
bandage around his Injured leg..
Two of his pals worn with him and
on the Hpol the Hand of Mercy was
organized.
Patrolman Patten promised to
furnish membership buttons to the
boys and he kept his word.
Soon all the youngsters In the
nelKhborhood wanted to Join and
wear the coveted button. The
police statloii "fiojnbled an animal
hospital any morning. All kinds
j of pets were brought to the sia
' Hon and cared for with the help of
the humane association.

mat today taken hi life In his

Dear Mary Ann Here is a story
I thought you might like to pub
lish in your Children's Column.
Betty ami Tiny Timmie'H Father.
One day Timmlc thought be
would go for a walk and take Hetty-Ann
with him . Now Tinimy and
Rot ty-Ann had no mother, but
their father was gone and they did
not know whero he was. They
stayed with a woman named Mrs.
Hase. M rs. Base would not tell
Tlmmy or Hetty-Ann what their
names were but she knew what it
was.
Tlmmy and Rctey-Ann went for
a walk. They went a lot further
than they had ever went before.
Tlmmy did not carei but Hetty
Ann was getting tired. Hetty-Ann
saw a house and they went into
the yard.
They went Into the bouse, but
they found no ono there. "What
do you suppose this Is? Look at
the bed and everything. 1 bet some
one had to leave here In a hurry,"
said Betety-Ann. "Ves, that may
be IJ," said Tlmmy.
Hetty-Ann and Tlmmy stayed nt
tho little house for a week without
anything happening. Hut one night
there came some thing on the
porch. Betty-Ann went to the door
and there was a little dog. The
little dog came In and wngged hi
tall. They named him Hob.
One nUht, Hetety-Ann. Tlmmle
and Hob went down to tho cellar
to see If anything was flown there.
"I have always wanted to come
down here, ever since we came
here,' said Tinimy. Tim my and
Betty-Ann were twini ami they
were fourteen years old.
Afler they bad been in the cellar
about half an hour, Hetety-Ann
was playing near the wall where
Iherc were some shelves. AM at
once Betty-Ann disappeared. "Hetty-Ann,
Betty-Ann, where afewmi?
Please come here." "Why. I am
right here. Tlmmy." Tlmmy hunt
ed for Botly-Ann. but he could not
find her. Bob was with her and
Tlmmy was left alone.
Hetty-Ann said, "Why don't you
come over hern where I hiii?"
Tlmmy went over to where Vetty-

j "Betty-Ann. are you here?" "Yes.
I am rinht here. What happened?
It's so dark in here. " "Well, the
door went shut and I don't know
where we are," said Tlmmy.
They sat there for an hour try-
ing ti get out, but they couldn't.
At last Mctty-Aiin sain, i-eis sec
where this place goes to." They
got up and started out to sec where
11 let to.
Botly-Ann. Timmy and Hob
walked about half an hour when
the tunnel stopped and didn't go
any farther. "I wonder where this
,l Mlops so funny, ".said Tlmr
my. liotty-Ann bumped her head
on the celling and it raised up a
Hide bit. "I will lift you up, and
then you help me up." "Alright,"
said Betty-Ann. "I wonder whose
house this is."
Thew got out alright and when
they did get out they found that
they were In a large house. Hetty
Ann found a door and they went
Into another room. There they
say a man, lie was looking at
somo pictures. When ho saw Betty-Ann
and Timmy ho said, "Who
arc you, and how did you get In
hero?," They told him how they
had run away. "What did you say
that woman's name was?" "It Ik
Mrs. Base," said Timmy. "We'll go
and sec the cellar first thing, and
then we'll go and see Mrs. Base,"
All of them went to the cellar
and the man told them that bo
knew nothing about the cellar, lie
told them that his name was Mr.
Van Ness.
Mr. Van Ness was their father
and Mrs. Base did not have to tell
Tlmmy who he was.' They sure
had a fine and happy time. The
first night In the big house they
sal up till eleven o'clock. Hetty
Ann and Timmy had a little house
for a play house.
Their father told them, "I left
you In Mrs. Base's charge nutlll I
could find a home for you two, but
when I went back for you, Mrs.
Base, was gone and so were you. I
have found you nad I mean to
make the rest of your life happy."

Pointers for Parents
Complied by the Kditors of Child
ren, the Parents Magazine.
A fear ridden personality is
doomed to bafflement and failure.
Don't make your child afraid.
Dally children ara brought to psy
chiatrists, suffering from a fear or
giult born of parents' threats.
Keonomts security Is among the
most difficult things for persons of
small and moderate Incomes to
achieve under tho present indus
trial organizations. Hut the family
can at least take the first step to
wards it by applying tho methods
used by business corporations to
achieve the same end. Planned
spending makes savings more like
ly and -more systematic, and less
liable to cut into what are really
(U'seirablc and essential expendi
tures. A fallacy commonly believed
is that a child must have certain
infectious diseases, anyway, and
the earlier the better. As a matter
of fact, there s no such necessity
and there is no communicable dis
ease that a child Is not much bet
ter oft without. There Is the possi
bility that the child will not re
cover and unfortunate consequenc
es of contagious diseases may last
a lifetime.
However great your chcild's am
bition and enthusiasm (in antici
pation) for garden work, I would
urge you to seo that tho child's
first garden Is small; and to con
fine tho planting to two or a tleast
three kinds of plants. This Is not
because more than two or three
kinds cannot be properly taken
care of by children, but because
it Is Important lo keep effort much
below tho limits of capacity, both
mental I and physical. Kemember
that children tire easily and it their
gardens are to ho a success they
must not overtax these young en
thusiasts, i
Very bright children show a
keen and early Interest In words
and nuni hem. They aro likely to
learn very easily to read, and to
devote themselves to reading when
tho mechanics of tho process have
been mastered. Thoy aro likely to
keep account of the passing of time
and to understand the uses of
clock, calendar and almanuu be
fore they aro seven years old.
They manifest unceasing curiosity
concerning their environment, par
ticularly with reference to the be
ginnings add the ultimate disposal
of peoplo und things.
For tho summer months tho wise
parents plan clothing that Is cool,
attractive and serviceable for tho
chilrden. A change of scene In
summer Is good for any family.
Clothes for such a sojourn should
be simple, washable and of suffi
cient quantity to Insure neatness
and comfort. They may be made
at home at little expense and with
a minimum of effort.
Whenever a house Is being
looked over for safety's sake, the
stairs come to the foreground for
consideration. They need to be
well lighted, an do all oilier parts
of the home. A switch at the head
and foot of the stairways Is an ex
cellent Investment. Children can
be taught when quite young o
make use of the lighting facilities.
The buttons which control the
lights should ho placed toy ouough
for children to reach.
