You roll one big ball for the snow mau'a
body and a smaller ball for his head, and then
you make two lung pieces of snow, like break-
fast rolls, for the snow man's legs.
'F5ut how do you make the snow man'a eyes
and noee and mouth?" asked Johnnie.
"I ll take two piece* of black cm! from
my oelUr for his eyes," said Uncle Wiggily
' Yon may go and get them. Blllie. As for his
month. I'll make that with a piece of red
flannel, so he will har»» red lips and a red

Johnnie. And for th^ nose, I'll take a little
lump of snow and fasten ft on the snow man 'a
face right between his eyes, in the place
where a nose always goes "
So Johnnie got the pieces of red flaunel for

'Well, I don't know a boot that," said Uncle
Wiggily with a Jolly laugh. But I know some
squinel boys who are hungry, and if you'll
come in my holiow stump bungalow I'll have
Nurse Jane get you some molasses cookies."
'Put wo didn't a-k for 'em. did we. Uncle
Wigg.lyT Mother said we weren't to ask for
anything to eat. and we didn't, did we?"

The Golden Rule
If there be any better guide for human conduct, we have yet to hear
of it. If we were buying instead of selling ice cream, we would like to
know that such cream is made of wholesome materials, under sanitary con-
ditions, and to be had at a fair rice. Now, since we would expect this
standard of another, ire we fair if we do not reach it ourselves?
