His persistent harping on the niaftei finally became unbearable to the othei members of the family. When Johnny mentioned the word ''watch," they became severely silent. But Johnny kept right on. One evening he was sitting In the drawing room with his father and concluded it was a good opportunity to do a little lobbying for himself. "Say, pa." "Pa" laid down his paper on the table and looked sternly at the boy over his spectacles. "Now, Johnny, I am going to put my foot down on any more of this watch Ik. You are making life a burden for t rvst of us. So, if you were intending to ai k mo about the watch, you had better not say anything further. Don't let me hear the word again." Johnny was repulsed, but not defeated. It was the custom In the Whlppen family for each member to quote a verse of Scripture at family worship each morning. The day following Mr. Whippen's ultimatum the family met for worship. It was Johnny's turn to quote a verse. Ha waited until ho was sure all present were attentive, and then ho slowly repeated with great emphasis the following verso: "What I 6ay unto you I say unto all, I Watch." Johnny wears it In his top vest pockit. ?Buffalo News. A PtUient Patient. Flossie's doll was a very patient little .thing. It never cried or screamed or made any trouble. It was just as content with a bed on the floor as In the crib. One day Flossie thought Dollie was sick, and of course she felt very badly about it, and hardly knew what to do. A happy thought came to her. She dressed hastily and took Dollie to get aome medicine. She found Dr. Guy In his office, but all ready to ride out. Be gave her some medicine and promised to call and see her. Flossie was very glad for his cheering words and the medicine. Dollie was soon better and has hot needed any medicine since.?Our Li* tie Folks' Magazine. A Strange Pet. Perhaps the strangest pet ever kept by a man was a wasp which Sir John Lubbock caught in the Pyrenees and resolved to tame. He began by teaching It to take its meals on his hand, and In a very short space of .time It grew to expect to be fed In that way. Sir John preserved this pet with the greatest care. True, It stung him once, but then it had every excuse for doing so. Sir John was examining it while on a railway journey, and, the door being opened by a ticket collector, he unceremoniously staffed it into a bottle, and the outraged Spaniard, not feeling quite at home during the process, gave him a gentle reminder as to the proper way to treat a guest A Great Hearted Little Man. There is an 8-year-old boy in Emporia with a heart In him as big as a man's, says a Kansas exchange. Observing for suocessive Aaprs another boy 6 years old carrying big Dundles of clothes, which hla mother washed in order to earn a support for him and her, an idea struck him that a nice little red wagon would lighten his burden. So he went among .his friends and collected $1.60 In nickels, and with thia ha bouorht the little wasron and Rave It to the washerwoman's boy for a Christmas gift. Th? Robin's Red BreaJit.
