And Even Jean Laughed
Jean and Jenny boy and girl
twins were on the whole very good
children, but they would not be hu
man Jf they did not sometimeti quar
rel.
The day before Hallowe'en they
hat' got into a quarrel over Jenny's
doll. Jean declared it was a fright.
Jenny stood up for it and said she
wuld not speak to him until he
lagged Dolly's pardon.
' Then Jean went off In a huff, say
ing no lady would ever catch him
begging pardon of a doll.
Hallowe'en night he went out
and set a terrible Jack-o'-Lantein
on the gate post to scare Jenny.
It seemed a long time before Jen
ny came out but when it was dark
she' said, "Dolly likes the night
aliV' eo putting her in the carriage j
she went off.
Jean crept after her, he would
uot have mtesed seeing her fright
for anything. When they came to
the turn In the path from where
the Jack-o'-Lantern could be seen
Jean gave a gasp, and Jenny a
shriek. The Jack-o'-Lantern was
gone, and In Its place stood a white
ghost with red eyes and nose, and j
a faint red streak for a mouth.
Trembling, Jenny touched it, then
burst into « peal of laughter. The
ghost was nothing but Aunt Lucy's
shawl, which had been drying on a
lilac tush near by and had blown
over the Jack-o'-Lantern.
Jenny ran laughing in to tell I
mother, and ofter thinking it over,
even Jean laughed.
FLORIS CLARK, Fifth Grade.
And Even "Grouchy" Laughed
"No, eir, I never did like babies
and anyway, they all look alike to
me," eaid the "Grouch." Ho had j
boon nicknamed that, because he j
was sullen and would not laugh. I
"But now, I think your wrong, not!
all* babies do look alike. I tell >
you what you ought to do. Put an
advertisement in the paper that
youwiU give $100 to the baby that
does not lock like other babies."
He followed his friend's advice.
On'"the night Of the stated tinie,
people came flocking in with ba
bies. Some carried, others wheeled
them. '•Among the crowd came an
Irish woman held was inspected. It
the 'top of her head, and a shawl
over her shoulders. In her arms
she oarrled a baby wrapped iu a
blanket.
The time had arrived when
"Grouchy" was escorted in to look
at the babies. Baby after baby
passed, but each time he shook his
head. Then tie baby that the poor
Irish woman held was Inspecte. It
was the most comical thing that a
person could lay eyes on. It had
red hair, gray and green beady
eyes, its ears stuck out, and
its mouth was altogether too large
for Its head. It was yelling at the
top of Its voice "Ma."
To the surprise of every one ev
en "Grouchy" laughed, and said
—that the reward was well earned.

And Even the Teacher Laughed
Miss Blodget, a school teacher
in the town of Pumpklnville, had
one boy in her room whose name
was Jimmie Redbug, who was al
wayB writing foolish poetry. He nev
*r knew hia lessons well, because
he spent his study time writing
these foolish poems about his
claas-matec, and then teasing them.
One day when they were having
their arithmetic lessen the teach
er saw Jimmie Rebdug put a pen
down the neck of the girl that sat in
front of him. • She thought that if
she was going to do anything to
him she might as well do it then,
so she called him ud to her desk
and told him to come out into the
hall with her. When she got him
out she eald, "Now Jimmie, if you
don't make up a real good poem in
half a minute, I'll whip you." Lit
tle Jimmie thought a moment, and
then answered.
"Here I stand.
Before Mi— Blodget;
She's golne to Btrike,
And'I'm going to dodge It."
Th'at*"'Was too much for Miss
Blodget She buist Into laughter
and laughed for two minutes or
more. Aftar she had finished
laughing she said, "Well Jimmie,
you may go, I «hall not whip you."

When the Joke wns on Dot.
Uncle George certainly was an old
grouch, he had beeu at our house
lor two weeks, aud hadn't laughed
once. That was too much for us
to stand; so we put our heads
together aud thought out a plan
tor making him laugh.
Mother had to go to the city for
a few days, and our fourteen year
old sister, Madge, had to look af
ter the house aud cook the meals;
these tasks didn't suit her very
well, and when us children offered
to take them off hc-r hands, she
was delighted. So tlie second day
after mother's departure, Madge
went to spend with one of her
friends; and ten yea-: old Dot was
to oversee the cookiug. Dick, Ted
»iud X were to get in the wood, see
to the fire, carry water, help Daisy
set the table, and do whatever else
But Dot had never J ad any exper
ence in cooking, onlv for her play
house; and as, we had often dined
with her, and considered her meals
very good; (after eating one of
our mother's wholesome meals.) We
had faith enough to consider her a
capable cook on this special oc
casion, even though no mother's
meal came before it.
But alas, Uncle George's sense of
taste was vt-ry delicate, and when
ho and father sat down to a din
ner that they thought would be
suitable for hard working men;
what was their surprise to be
hold before them, plates about
three inches in diameter, cups the
size of thimbles, and scattered all
over the table dishes evidently of
the same set. Daisy was acting as
waitress, and before they had got
ever theip first surprise, she was
saying in her gentle way. "Won't
"ou have some potatoes and gravy,
rTncl» George?" Uncle George look
«(1 first at the quaint little fig
ure In tlie hig apron, with her face
flushed and eyes shining; then at
the potatoes, (which were merely
small potatoes that had been left
on the ground after the potato
harvest) bat he didnt' wait to
look at the gravy, instead he burst
out laughing, and so did father.
We looked surprised, but started in
laughing too, hardly knowing what
we were laughing at, until father
said, "I didn't know that we had
so many cooks in this bouse, but
instead of eating this dainty meal,
we will all go to the restaurant,
and save this meal for some other
time. Then there was a real laugh
from us all, even Dot laughed.

U. S.y Not U. si A.
Do you know what Is the proper
abbreviation of the United States? It
is U. S. It is not U. S. A. There is
widespread and apparently ntler ig
norance of this fact The initials U. S.
A. are the officially accepted abbrevia
tion for United States army and do not
under any possible conditions ever
mean United States of America. At
this time, when so many manufactur
ers in this country are branding their
goods as made in the United States,
this Is important. The brand of U. S.
A. upon anything means that it was
manufactured for the United States
army. "Made In U. is the brand
which should be put upon ail goods
manufactured in this country.—Albany
