AT WlM M1 How Doggie Puck Played Santa Claus IT WAS tlio dny before Christmas, and the sweetest Hiuells were is suing from the kitchen, nnd pack bkcs were being left fit the door every few minuted with loud ringings of the doorbell. Puck had never In all his little doggie life been treated as tie had beon the Inst few days. Nobody had nny time for him. When Daisy, his little mistress, had gono out that morning, Instead of tak ing her dog sue had said: "I cnn'l tuko you today, old fellow. I'll linvo too many packages to man age you." Puck went to tlio kitchen, led there, no doubt, by tlio delightful odors. "Get out ol here!" said Brid- "i can't take you get, and sho flour- TODAY, OLD FEL lslicd Q brOOIU at low." lilm. The InHultl It nearly broko Tuck's heart. Puck walked out of the kitchen up Into tlio play room on tlio top floor. lie crawled under tlio curtain which adorned tlio bed of Frances, tlio last doll to arrive from Paris, Puck grow drowsy, and tho last thing his eyes rested upou before sinking into sleep was a largo book cut In the shnpo of Santa Claim and colored to look like hi in as well. The book con tained tlio Rtory beginning " "X'wns the night before Christmas," and Puck hud heard Daisy rend that story only the night before. What was his surprise to sen that bonk straighten Itself until It looked llko a soldier on paritdo, but of coiirso it was not a soldier, only Santa Clans, tho very being from whom ho was trying to escape Suutn Clans began talking to him. "Puck, I do not llko to seo you show such an ugly spirit this day before Christmas. Christmas Is my day, you know, nnd I llko every living thing to bo happy when it comes around. "If you want to get fun out of Christ mas quit expecting a merry Chrlstinns for yourself. Try to give It to some ono else." went on Simla Clans. "Mr. Sunta Clans," said Puck, look ing offended, "nobody will allow mo to help In any way. All 1 can do is to keep out of tho way until your day Is over." "Nonsense," replied Santa. "You ore all wrong. The festival Is In my hon or, true enough, but that does not shut out other people from helping." Puck was wide awake and polite enough to crawl out from beneath the bed and I In en to his visitor. "You know Daisy Is to havo n party tonight," Bald Santa. "There Is to bo a splendid treo with presents on It, and I have mndo that tree tho handsomest I over trimmed. I had planned to make my nppearanco myself to wish the boys and girls a merry Christmas, but I simply cannot tako tho tlmo. If you would llko you can tako my place. I'll dress you for tlio party. If you will allow 1110 I shall look around and see what I can II ml in Miss Daisy's play room. Good, the very thing. We'll niako a hit!" And Puck looked toward the wnstelmsket, where ho saw a false faco of Santa Clans with Its long while, beard nnd the remains of a glue pot warranted to mend or stick any thing. Santa Clans bent to tho ears of Puck and whispered his plan as a secret. Tho secret seemed to meet with Puck's approval, for ho wagged Ills tall and wriggled his body Just as ho did when Daisy fed him a bit of his favorite ca udy, It grow dark very early, for a snow storm was on the way. Sounds of ar riving visitors came to Puck's ears ns tho bell pealed again and again. Ills nbsenco was not noticed ns beau tifully dressed girls came Into tho next room to remove their wraps, while shouts of laugh ter nnd merry C h r I s t in a ses floated to Puck In his retreat ho neath tho doll's bed. Tho voice of Dalsv's father nf last sounded, and a powmtaim. ns this was tho cue Santa had given him to appear Puck crawled out, ap proached tho wnstelmsket, knocked It over, rubbed his face In tho slowly trickling glue nnd then stuck It Into the Santa Claus false face lying conven iently near. In n minute the queer Puck-Santa Claus ran down the stairs nnd Into the Mom, arousing shrieks of laughter as one hoy screamed, "Why, It's Sunta Claus!" "No, It Is not!" shouted another. "Did you ever see a Sanla Claus with foui legs? It's a dog, that Is what It is." "it's my Puck." said Daisy, taking the queer specimen In her arms, "but how In the world did he ever get him self up In this clever fashion?" Puck was not telling, but the fun this odd looking Santa started made tie party a success. Helen Could, though -H, is not ono of the old maids that can't get mar ried.

JOITRIfAL, glLM, QBEGOlf, How Little Jack Guessed A Christmas Secret T was the after noon before Christmas, and the nlr was full of big, feathery snowflakes. Jack and Mary stood at tho window watching them, and Baby Jane sat on the floor. "Soo how pret tv thev are!" J? ' cried Juck, clap- y ping his hands. "They'ro Just llko fairies going to a Christmas party." Mary clapped her bnnds, too, and Caby Jojio thumped her rattlo on tho floor and crowed. Hut Mrs. Brown looked out of tho window rather anx iously. The store was a mllo away, and the snow seemed to come thicker and faster every mlnuto. "How do you s'poso Santa Claus can get here lu such a storm?" asked Jack, at which Mary's face clouded. Perhaps this thought was troubling Mrs. Brown. Sho didn't answer for more than a minute, not until Jack spoke again. "Pooh 'n' nonsense!" ho said. "This Isn't much of a snow. 1 could go In It myself well's not." "Could you, dear?" asked his mother quickly. "I'm afraid It's a chance If papa gets homo before tomorrow, tho wood road will bo so blocked, and I want some things from tho store to night Do you mipposo you can go with your sled, Jackie?" "Why, yes!" cried Jack, delighted enough, and In a very few minutes ho was ready to start. "Give tills nolo to Mr. Slmpklns," said his mother, "and then you won't have anything to remember. And bo careful, deur, and hurry homo as fast as you can." Mr. Slmpklns' eyes twinkled when ho read that note. "I can't attend to you right away," ho snld to Jack, "and I wish you'd Just JACK STIinOOLED OH. run over to the houso with a lino to Mrs. Slmpklns for me." "Yes, sir," answered Ted. Mr. Slmpklns had tho bundles tucked away In the sled box and covered with thick brown paper, that tho snow couldn't get through, when Jack came back. "Hard night for Santa Claus to get around," he snld, pinching the boy's red cheek. "Do you suppose you'll see him nt your houso?" "I hope he'll come," answered Jack politely, "but I dou't guess I'll see him, Bir." "I saw him once," Mr. Slmpklns snld soberly, "when ho was a littlo boy, about your size, lie looked a great deal llko you too." When ho got home mother had a plate of hot oatmeal pudding with sugar and real cream waiting for him, and sho whisked the buudles out of the sled box and Into the pantry In a hurry. All this time the snow kept falling, falling, and tho wind blew umll the little house fairly shook. If It had been set on a hill there Is no saying what might have hapcned. Jack felt a good deal troubled. He told his mother what Mr. Slmpklns had said about Sauta Claus when she was tuck ing him into bed for the night "Pm 'frnld he can't get here," said he, "and then Mary will be so disap pointed." But his mother laughed, stooping down for the good night kiss. "Don't worry, dear," she said. "Santa Claus won't mind this little Btonn." And. sure enough, when morning came the three littlo stockings hanging beside the chimney were stuffed as full as they could bold. "So Santa Claus did come," said Mrs. Itrowu. laughing at the children's an tUs .lack looked thoughtful n minute Ills eyes dinn ed, lie put his Hps close to his mot tier's ear "I do b'llovo I know what Mr. Simp kins meant." ho said, "but 1 shan't tell Mary. And It's lots of fun, Just the name." Having secured a parcels post sys tem, let us boo how it will affect the cost of living, by giving it a fair and honost tJtaJ.

DECEMBEB ft Ml They Want to Cut Out Holidays That as ntnny holidays as possible ho eliminated from the work of the publlo schools of the stato will be In cluded In a set of resolutions that will be given tin Polk county legislative delegation by the school officials of the county. The officials heartily endorse the supervisory law, and will urge upon their delegation in tho legislature to fight the effort to repeal the law, which has been declared by the Ma rion county delegation, The resolutions were drafted by D. L. Kcyt, F. W. Wilson, C. C. Gardner, J. II. Brown and A. J. Shipley. The recommendations have been reported to tho office of Stato Superintendent Alderman They follow: First We heartily endorse tho su pervisory law, and desire Its continu ance, ns we believe that the country districts should have the same advant ages enjoyed by tho city districts, and believe that tho law should be made stronger by tho addition of ono or more supervisors. Since we understand an effort Is to bo mndo In the next legislature to have tho law repealed, wo hereby In struct our representatives to use their best endeavor to preserve the law. Second We hereby Instruct our representatives to use every honorable means to have the many holidays elim inated, ns wo believe tho time would better he spent In actual school work. Third We hereby endorse the ef fort being mndo to Introduce practical agriculture into the public schools, nnd recommend thnt at least one book on that subject be taught in tho sev enth and eighth grades, supplemental, when possible, by actual demonstra tions. Fourth We hereby commend tho county court, county nnd stato super intendents, supervisors, teachers, com mercial clubs and others, who mnde It possible to carry our county school fair to such a successful termination, nnd urge its continuance. Fifth We heartily commend the system of standardization introduced by Superintendent Seymour, as we know It Is producing good results. Sixth Wo recommend the appoint ment, by tho president of tho conven tion of a legislntivo committee of three, Including the county school su perintendent, to look after educational Interests in t he legislature. tore Come and See Our Such as has Never thing is on display. not.

Seventh We rcoommend the Intro duction of the home credit system In all the publlo schools of the county as ranldly as possible, as we believe such Introduction will result In bringing the school and home Into closer rela tions. Eighth We heartily endorse State Superintendent Alderman's recommen dation that greater latitude be given in the eighth grade examination. Buttermilk Buttermilk will prolong the hiunan life for many years. That assertion has been proved by several of the leading physicians of the world Pasteur and Mitchnekoff, of Paris. Inthe blood are little cells known as leucocytes. Those cells are the scav engers of the body, and in their con cave surfaces are ahle to grasp a germ or a foreign body and force its elimin ation from tho human system. The leucocytes, figuratively speaking, are !the home defenders of the body. Under the microscope the home de fenders can be seen flowing along in the blood streams. Sudednly they will stop as though they sensed some near danger. Changing their shape to that of a v. they will penetrate the blood vessel wall and pick up a stray germ, probably a typhoid or one of the many other varieties. When a person wounds the skin and tho blood runs, the home defend ers niBh to the afflicted part and pro ject themselves to the surface of the abrusion, preventing the entrance of outsido germ life. They give up their lives to obtain their object, and the hard lltle ridges felt on both sides of a slight wound are the leucocyte so tightly Impacted that their lifeless bodies help form scar tissue. As years pass that commendable ac tion of sacrificing themselves so the human body may live ceases and the littlo friends of tho bod once known ns home defenders turn into a lawless element, ravaging the body they once defended. Metclinlkoff and Pasteur found thnt buttermilk contained an element which ! prevented the leucocytes from ravng 1 Ing tho body. Experiments proved they would eat the buttermilk in pref erence to the human tissues. Seems like a great singer should be about tho happiest man; maybe he Is.
