It flopped around her heels as she crawled over the fast drying leaves. "I wouldn't go a step farther only I know the folks across the river will be glad to hear the good news" and Cheery Cricket, trying to forget her hunger, sat down and began to chirp merrily. Her song cheered her so much, she crawled along faster, when she turned the bend in the patch, fhRre, before her, ppreiid out a lovely white tablecloth Just loaded with good things to eat.

All around it, looking very sad and forlorn, sat a crowd of tumbling bugs. They looked up, as a twig crackled under Cheery Cricket's feet. "Good morning, friends!" chirped Cheery Cricket, merrily, "Having a feast?" "J-ooks like It, doesn't it?" growled a Mr. Tumbling Bug, shifting his one knee ever the other. "Generally folks have something to eat when they have a party." "That's the trouble with you Crickets," snapped another tumbling bug.

"You keep your mouths open so much you cover up your eyes." "I guess you're right," laughed Cheery Cricket. "I do love to sing!" "Well, you'd better hurry and get it out of your system," snapped the third tumbling bug, "for pld Jack Frost will be here before you know it and then you'll have to stop singing." "Not where I'm going," laughed Cheery Cricket. "Pooh!" cried a fourth tumbling bug. "I've heard folks like you chirping before, but when the cold snows rustle tbey stop their songs no matter where they are I intend to live in the chink of a fireplace In a farmhouse," replied Cheery Cricket.

Po sit down, Miss Cricket, and share our feast." Cheery Cricket chirped something about being an uninvited guest, laughed merrily and began to cat "You ste, I was so anxious to tell the glad news to my friends across the river that I didn't stop to pack much lunch "Old Jack Frost Will Be Here." Just the things I had, you know and hurried away," she laughed.

"Good news!" cried the Tumbling Bug family all together. "Oh, surely you have heard it cried Cheery Cricket. The tumbling bugs all put down their knives and forks and shook their heads. "The only tit of news we've had," said a Mr. Tumbling Bug, Senior, "was that we could expect frost before morning." "Maybe so," laughed Cheery Cricket, "but West Wind has held a circle with all the Wind Elfins, and they have deckled the thing to do this year is to have an Indian summer.

So, even if Jack Frost has planned on coming to spend a few days, all we meadow folks have to do is to keep under cover until he goes away, then we'll have the laugh on him.

They mean that envy, that canker of the human heart, has eaten so deeply that the mind of the tormented victim has lost its balance. If I ever found myself even thinking of writing a letter to which I did not dare sign my name, I would throw everything I was doing aside and rush to the telephone, call up the nearest nerve specialist and ask Him to put me somewhere under observation and keep me from going entirely mad, if he could possibly do it.

Doctors are often able to decide from the symptoms what poison has been taken, but this cannot be expected of tho layman. Always send for a doctor at once If poison is suspected, then while you wait, helpful measures may be undertaken.

Immediate Action. In the absence of direct knowledge or what to do givo the general antidote if it is known and at hand. Meanwhile, white of eggs, milk or strong tea may be administered, as these remedies will do no harm and are somewhat antagonistic to a number of common poisons. Administer the antidote and empty the stomach as quickly as possible. The antidote is expected to combine with the poison and render it harmless, but it may not be effective, or the resulting mixture may be harmful if aftenvard absorbed, hence vomiting should oe Induced.

To cause vomiting, tickle the back of the throat with the forefinger or give an emetic. Emetics are agents which produce vomiting. The ones nearest at hand usually are lukewarm water mixed with mustard or common salt To a cupful of lukewarm water add a heaping tea-spoonful of mustard or salt, stir it, and tient drink the mixture. Re peat the dose every 10 minutes until three or four tumblerfuls have been swallowed, unless vomiting takes place sooner. Home Caution.

It is well to cause the patient to vomit several times, and to have mm annK of lukewarm water in the inter vals. This process assists in waamuss out the stomach. One or two teaspoonfuis of syrup or ipecac or wine ot ipecac are soou emetics. Them nre n. few poison cases for which it is not wise to give an emetic, but in an emergency in the absence or a aoc tor and a specific knowledge to the con trary the general rule for giving an emetic holds.

If the pulse becomes rapid and wean hot coffee, one-half teaspoonrui aro matic spirits of ammonia or small doses of whiskev or brandy should be given If the patient is greatly weakened and prostrated, as he generally win De, noi water bottles should be appueu arounu the feet and extremiftes, and measures taken to sustain the general strengui. Poisons, such as carbolic aeia or anu septic tablets, should not be kept In the home much less on the same snen wnn harmless remedies.

In most countries pleasant or brilliant conversation and the graces of hospitality are first of all behind the occasion of tho dinner table.
