He Liked Sugar. The story that I am going to tell you is about a pug that lives down in Dev onshire. This pug was a father pug who has a wife and two baby pugs. Papa pug was very fond of sugar, and his taste was shared by the rest of his family. One morning when she was in the storeroom, in the middle of giving out the stores for cook, the mistress of Mr. and Mrs. Pug was suddenly called out of the roomi, leaving not only the outer door, but also the lower door of the store cupboard open. It was quite a quarter of an hour before she was able to return. Imagine her surprise on r'eachring the doeor to see the whole fanrily of pulgs-mIirs p)aa---stand lng near the cupboard, with a very expectant look upon their faces. Just inside the cupboard stood Mr. Pug-and-whrat do you think Ire was doing? Handing out lumps of sugar ini turn to each member of his wvait ing family. Ils mrisiress was very amused. She pr-etenrded to be very cross wvith him, burt she really thought him a very clever doggie. I thought so, too, whren I was told th story, and I expect you will all of you agree with mre.-Home Chat.

Good Humor Returns With Change to P'rop)er Food. "For iany years I was a constant sufferer from indiigestion, and ner vousness amounting almost to pros tration.'' writes a Montana man. "My blood wasH imlpoverished, the vision was blurred and weak, with moving spots b)efore my eyes. This was~ a steady dlaily condition. I grew Ill-tempered, and( eventually got so nervous I could not keep my books pos'tedl, nor handle accounts satisfac torily. I can't describe my suffer.. ings.

"Jt wasn't long before I was re stored to health, comfort and ,hap)pi ness.

Two fine. noking horses attached to single bug les were hitched ne:ar the entrance o the St. Louis Merchants' Exchange. hey were hitched several feet apart, ut the hitching straps allowed them ufflcient liberty of movement to get heir heads together if they so de ired. The owner of one of them had taken he opportunity of a prolonged stop o give the horse a feed of oats, which vas placed on the edge of the sidewalk n a bag. He was contentedly munching his ats when his attention was attracted )y the actions of the other horse, vhich was evidently very hungry. le yed the plentiful supply of oats wist 'ully and neighed in an insinuating nanner. The horse with the feed pricked up its ears politely, and replied with a leigh, which must have been, in horse anguage, an invitation to the other ellow to help himself. Evidently he accepted it, for he noved along in the direction of the ag as far as the hitching strap would permit. But the strap was not long mnough, and his hungry mouth fell ibout a yard short of the bag. The host noticed and seemed to ap preclate this diflicult.y. Fortunately there was some leeway to his strap. So he moved slowly along the curb, pushing the bag with his nos? until his guest was able to reach it. Then, ifter a friendly nose-rub of salutation, the two horses contentedly finished the oats together. Philip of Pokanoket. Massasoit, Chief Sachem of the Wanpanoags, died in 1660, leaving two sons, Wamsutta and Metaconi. Wamsutta drank too heavily of New Eigland rum and (lied, but Metacom lived long enough to make the New l:nglanders remenhber him forever. It is not by his name of Metacon but by that of "Philip," or, as he was vften called, "King Philip," that Mas 3asoit's younger son figures in history -a name that was for near a genera 'ion a terror from Cape Cod to the Berkshire Hills. For thirteen years after he became Thief Sachem of his tribe Philip usied himself with the problem: 'How shall we red men get rid of the people from across the great waters, who have come here to drive us from Dur homes and the graves of our fathers?" It was simply a matter of patriotism. Prom all accounts there was no par ticular reason why Philip should have gone to war. Conditions in 1674, wlen "King Philip's War" began, were i.s fair for the Indians as they were in 1660, the year of the death of his rather. No contracts had been brok en on the part of the white men, no hostilities had been entered into by the settlers against the natives, and 5o far as any one could see there was no reason why the peace which Massasoit had maintained for half a 2entury should not be indefinitely pro. Longed. But Philip was a patriot, he loved uis countr-y and his peopl)e; lie saw, as plainly as lie saw the sun in the tueavens, that that country was rapid ly being taken away from them, and that lisa people were slowly but surely b,eing exter-minated, and lie resolved to strike, let the consequences be what they might. The "savage" chieftain stood exact ly where Patrick Henry did a hundredi vear-s later, when he said: "Give me Liberty or- give me death!1" The storni broke on Sunday, June 20, 1675, and for tree years New Eng land was in the gr-ip of a mortal ter ror! United by the eloquent appeals gf Philip, the r-ed mn were battling for their right to live as freemen in their- own land. Thme historians of the (lay--and their mitator-s since--uniitedh in consigning Philip and lisa confeder-ates to the hot est cornerm in Hades. They were, we ire told, a pack of "redl deviles," human >nly in slfape, at hear-t so maniy fiends, xulting ini blood( and( tottre-; but iistory, like its cr-eator's, is anything ut infallib)le. As might have been expected, Phil p's fight against the "New England Confederacy" was a failure. The chil Iron of the for-est wer-e brave andl had 1. goodh cause, but the white men had lie organuization and science which nadle them proof against the i-ed man's 'alor.
