The Guest of Henor
H. l'm so glad that Betty Lou
O can come to my party!"
Bernice was almost always
happy and her mother only smiled
again at the enthusiasm. Bernice
was to have a birthday party the next
Thursday. Fifteen little girls were
coming at 2 o’clock. or with Betty
Lou there would be 16 little guests.
Aunt Abbie was coming from another
town to help with the games, while
mother and Mrs. Kent would prepare
the lunch.
Betty Lou is Irma Jean's cousin,
and Irma Jean is Bernicc‘s best little
friend. Irma. Jean and Bernice live
in a. little Dakota town. and Bettv
Lou‘s home is in an Eastern city.
Betty Lou has golden curls and dim-
pies and beautiful clothes. Her voice
is gentle and her lau‘br musical.
The first game was “drOp the
Handkerchiet." Nearly evd'y other
time it was found at Betty Lou‘s
feet. Perhaps that was why Aunt
Abbie so soon suggested a change of
games. But in the others, just the
same, Betty Lou was it the lion‘s
share of times.
Then something happened. Eloise
Carter came. She was very late. in-
deed. and she had hurried so. Never—
theless. her curls were tangled. her
face flushed with skipping so fut.
and she was brgthiess. But she
smiled. Needie's be and "the thread
that runs so smoothly" broke as most
of the guests ran to greet the new-
comer. Then they admired the bean-
tiful gold satin slippers Eloise wore.
Betty Lou didn't stir from her
corner where these who preferred a
gold chariot to a silver automobile
were supposed to stand. She was
sullen all through lunch. Bernice's
mother feared the little guest was ill.
"Perm. she's played too hard.”
oflered Mrs. Kent.
But to Bernice. Betty Lou confided
the secret of her woe.
“I think 'it‘s so improper to wear
satin slippers to a children's party."
she complained. The pretty lips
droopcd tnto an ugly downward
curve. ‘
That night as Bernice took off her
sturdy little low‘shoes she sighed
"it was a lovely party. but it would

so nice that almost nothing was left m
for the poor tiger. 50 Mrs. Sparrow
again started to do some cookina
At dusk the tiger came and found
some cakes ready for him on a dish
at the foot of that tree. He fell on
them at once ravenously.
The first one or two that he took
tasted very good and he liked them
so well that he cried out in joy:
"By my faith. whst good taste,
Sweeter far than all I ate!"
The next iew that he seized he
found out were made with only flour
and treacie. He was not so satisfied
with them. and said:
”This is true a common tood.
The first one or two 'were really
good."
The cakes he swallowed mat tast-
ed as if they were made with rub-
bish and in wrath he exclaimed;
"Oh brute! Oh fool: How you dare-i
With rubbish have you cakes pre-
pared."
Now at this stage Mr. Sparrow
whispered. "Vi. I am going to
sneeze.”
Mrs. Sparrow was much alarmed.
She stoutly said: “Oh. no. no. dear,
you can not sneeze now. The tiger
will then surely jump open its and
we will he done for.”
Kr. Sparrow could not check his
sneeze any longer: He sneezed ter-
ribly. At once the tiger gave a big
