' The Alarm Clock. '
All .summer long Farmer Green

"before the Sun : climbec over the
mountain fo Hood rleasant Valley
with his galden light. Si

Every morning, without fail, Rusty
Wren sang his dawn song. ' a '
, Onev might think that ' Farmer
Green would hve had some trotible
awaking so early in tljie morning.
And, perhajis he might have . over

No! Farme Green had something
much oleasanter than that; and it
was hot in his bedroom,' either.

yard, for it was Rusty Wren him
self who always warned him that
day was breaking and that it was
time to get up and go to work.
- Every morfti'ng, ' without fail,
Rusty sang his dawn' song right under-
Farmer.. Gfeen's window. His
musical trill, ; sounding -very much
like -the brook that rifled its way
down the side. 'of Blue Motlntain,
always made farmer Green feci glad
that another day had come'. j
"If that .busy little chap is up"
he oftem said, meaning Rusty Wren,
of course "if 1 he's up there's no
teas'on why' I. should he here and
sleep." . ' t '
And since everybody else in. the
house followed Farmer Green's cus
tom of 'rising early, i happened that
sp small a bird as Rusty Wren
aroused the whole hoKSehold o&i f
their beds. . .' v ''. ". '
To be sure, Johnnie Green sitting

since he hated Jo -rake medicine, and

perhaps it wa,s.just as well, after all,
to follow Kusty Wren's example.
' Now, Farmer Green spoke so of
ten and so pleasantly of Rusty
Wren, saying .that nobody could
want a better little alarm clock than
he, that Rusty began to take a great

hardly be called a task, however,

My husband and I walked slowly
down the pathway leading into ihfJ

the cottage was he grove, so wind

three minutes of ' smilling we were
compleely out of sight of the house,

"It's like the Catskills, isn't if?" I

sniffing judicially. "Rather like a

could get a' baby jag on with enough
of it."
I made a saucy motie at him.
"I knew it," I declared. "Sooner
or later. I was sure somebody1 would
tell me' this air was like wine." '
"Sure thing," my husband returne,d,
placidly uiiresentful of. my gibe.
"That's the prooer thing to say in
any strange place where it isn't

phrased it differently. But, then, I
always was an unappreciated cuss.

By J. J. MUNDY. '
You city folk who eo to the conn
try this summer to visit your cousins,
don't - emphasize the fact of how
much they are missing by not living
in ine cuy.
Don't carry discontent into their
lives: .
You know the drawbacks of city
life as well as the advantages. Be
fair
If you lived in a small place once
upon a time, you know that no mat
ter how absorbingly interesting your
life in the metropolis, you long for
the old friends back home the
friends whose greeting always rang
true the dear friends. J
When you get a bit lonesome in
the big town you do something ex
citing to rid yourself of lonesorrie-
ness so that you may forget.
Your cousins are happily sur
rounded by thefr friends and ac
quaintances. - ( .
Don t bring dissatisfaction into
their comfortable homes.
Who knows but a word from you
may cause them to break uo the as
sociations of a lifetime, the homeies,
tne peace ana tne wholcsoraeness.
Are tou sure that what they will
get m return will be worth all that
your oveddrajvn picture has led thern
to tninkf ' - i
' Be careful and weigh your, words
when you wax eloquent over the ad
vantages of xthe city, which may be
outweighed by many a countryside.
