Her father was greatly distressed.
In vain he tried by splendid balls and
ice carnivals to draw the Princess
back into court life. She would only
sit in her own apartments and think
how wretched everyone must be.
Now, as she should be Queen on her
father’s death, and he was growing an

Watering Cows.
How often shall the cows be wa-.
tered? Our best dairymen water their
cows at least twice daily during the
winter months. There are many who'
cldim that once a day is sufficient.;
but such a claim smatters too much*
of an excuse for lack of energy on;
the part of the owner. At least the
facts do not warrant any such con-
clusion. Careful experiments have
proven that the cows consume more
water when watered twice, and that
is the real test after all. A tempera-
ture of from 70 to 80 degrees is quite
desirable, and many prefer to warm it
to body temperature about 100 • de-

Our country can well be proud of them.
They have taken an idea, probably as

I subject the Wrights and thousands of
i others are most interested in at this
I time, I happened upon an account of
| the first recorded attempt to navigate
in true bird fashion that great, void
i above us.
The old document told graphically
of the longing of a pious friar to rise
in the world and soar above his fl-
lows. It told of the long years he
spent in nerve-racking research for an
apparatus that could be attached to his
person and with which he could attain
the heights his ambition led him to. It
told how the credulous populace gath-
ered on the morning of the trial to see
the good man make his getaway from
the top of the town-hall. The rest of
the account dwelt on the virtues of the
deceased and the plans for a great
public funeral to be held the next day.
This occurred»in the year 845 A. D.
We can, and have done, as much as
this in our time.
How another attempt was made to
solve the problem some time later is
related in another part of the vol-
ume. It tells of an ingenious farmer
who lived on the outskirts of Nice.

•nd scratched by carelessness; but
it has still virtue enough in it to make
the kingdom a lovely and a happy
place to whoever carries it."
Joytully accepting the Great Gift,
Ulf thanked the giver, and set out
again towards the city of the King’s
palace.
Soon while he traveled, the youth
became aware of a new, delightful
power within him. He could see un-
der the snow to where the roots of
all plants were kept safe and warm.
He saw into the hearts of trees and
shrubs and felt that they were gath-
ering strength, and dreaming of sum-
mer whilst they slept under the snow,
He could see that beneath the ice the
little fishes swam, warm and merry,
at the bottom of the water. And the
icy air was no longer hateful to him,
because he knew it swept into nooks
and crannies and killed all evil things.
Every snowflake was a fairy on some
good mission. «
Coming out from the forest, and
passing through the villages, Ulf
knew in some magical fashion that
those who had been idle in the abund-
ance of summer were now constrained
to work; that the wasteful were
forced to be careful;, and that the
kind-hearted were more than ever
moved to deny themselves that they
might help others.
So that the same cold'season which
kilted evil insects and purified the
air, killed also selfishness, and made
hearts brighter, warmer, and purer
than ever, and well content to lose
their pleasures for a season, as the
trees and plants lost their leaves.
Therefore, it seemed to Ulf that this
was the very pleasantest land in all
the world.
And because of his thoughts his face
was so bright and noble that when
he reached the palace the servants
I took him at once to their mistress, the
J Princess, for they knew that he had
some happy secret for her.
And when he had entered the pres-
ence of the Princess and had given to
her the crystal heart, she rose up
from her couch with a face as bright
as an angel’s, and said:
“Now I know that to have a pure
heart, clear as crystal, is to see as the
angels see, and to see even a little as
the angels see is to know that the
land is always beautiful, because it is
what the angels are making for God.”
So Ulf and the < Princess, being of
one heart, were married, and they
lived happily ever after, because they
knew the Happy Secret.
“But ghat is it?” asked Ulf.
"When you find it you shall know,”
replied the Fairy Queen. “I think it
is very near to the Princess already.
Go quickly to the city."
Upon this Ulf begged his master to
give him a holiday, and set out as fast

her friends by doing kind things for
them. It was a beautiful book With

The story in the book appealed to
Dot particularly- because she had en-
emies herself and it struck her that
applying kindness to them was a very
simple cure, within the reach of any
one. )
Her enemies were ten little girls
who lived on the next street and
passed her house in a troop every day
on their way to school. Generally
they contented themselve with mak-
ing faces at her, but sometimes they
stopped to talk, which was worse.
They asked her name, but when she
ventured to ask theirs they answered,
“Puddin’ ’n’ tame, if you ask me again

she was so kind!
The afternoon of the party was all
that heart could wish. Dot, however,
did not 1 feel con teht. The small guests
invited by her mother on entering re-
ported a mob at the entrance -that
commented freely upon their costumes
and asked questions not usually rated
as polite. Upon one little girl’s arriv-
ing In tears, Dot’s mother dispatched
the maid to the front walk and there
seemed to be a commotion there im-
mediately afterward. As Dot refrained
from looking out of the window, she
was not sure who was responsible for
the chorus of yells and whoops that
accompanied the scattering of the
mob, but in her heart she thought she
knew. •
Not one of the ten little girls she
had invited'put in an appearance at
the party, though Dot looked for them
all, one anxious eye regarding the gen-
erous plates of ice cream with fear
lest the missing ones should not get
any if they came in later.
The party was a joyous success,
however, and Dot forgot for a happy
hour her friends th enemy. These
were brought to her remembrance
again as the guests departed. Deri-
sive hoots from across the street
greeted their departure. Dot then
heard her mother speaking about
something.
“I don’t know where those little ruf-
fians heard about the party,” said
Dot’s mother. "They have given us
such a lot of trouble! One of them,
stole a loaf of angel food and they
have left all sorts of trash on our
back porch labeled birthday gifts for
Dot. Two of them dug up the lilac
bush and another broke the cellar
window. It has been dreadful."
Dot stole softly upstairs and then
came down a moment later, clasping
a book with a violent red cover and a
gold title, “Coals of Fire.” On the
landing she met her small brother.
"Here, Tommy,” she said, thrusting
the book at him. “You can have thia

girl who made the witty remarks
which were received with cheers by

Now that revenge was within Dot’s
