young folks good digestion source of health through the telescope what a wonderful day the- children had when they first found the long telescope that lay on the upper shelf in the spareroom closet jack who lived all the time in the big farmhouse on the hill had almost forgoten the telescope although he had looked through it many times but it was a new thing to the cousins don and ruth it works this way said jack as ho pulled out the telescope to its full length and took it over to the south window oh let mo look teased don and jack gave up his place why the pond over beyond the back pasture seems right hero in the dooryard he cried isnt it strange and there i3 a bird among tho lily- pads a bird with long legs probably its a heron said jack we often see them how surprised it would be if it know we were watching it so near by went on don my how plain the houses are on tho back road in front of one of them i can see a little girl feeding somo hens she is hold ing a baby in her lap no i guess it is a big doll and in the yard of the next house just up the hill i can see a boy and a girl and a dog the dog is watching another dos over in tho field beside the woods that must be the brown place said jack and tho dogs are tiger and togo they look just alike oh see him run broke in don now they aro both dancing and dig ging round a pile of rocks perhaps they are trying to dig out a woodchuek or a squirrel suggested jack and no doubt they are barking at a great rate although of course we cannot hear them its a rabbit shouted don it came out of the rock pile on the other side and has scampered over the hill out of sight im glad it got away exclaimed ruth oh let molook so ruth took her turn and then both the boys again and what strange and interesting faroff things the tele- scopo brought close to their eyes on the slope of a hill in the back pasture just beside the woods they saw a fox lying in the sunshine out side its hole if the fox could hear the dogs that were trying to get the rabbit it did not appear to he worried about them far off on tho horizon was the ocean showing a white sail or two a- gainst the blue water along tho shore many birds were flying in a tree on the edge of the woods they saw a largo bird with a hooked beak which they knew was a hawk in another tree near by was a big dark object that they felt sure was an owl how quickly tho morning passed every day after that the cousins went np to- iaesparstboifl toglaytire telescope game which they decided was far better than any motionpicturo show that they had ever seen the youths companion

crossed the serbian border afmany points and five days later the bulgarians new comers in the war invaded from the east fighting desperately but hope lessly the serbians were pressed back by torrents of heavy shells to which they could not reply and on nov 29 the german general staff was able proudly to announce that the operations against serbia had ended in complete success whhe austria at the same time was finish ing off montenegro but unsuccessful as the year 1915 had been to the allies in the field their will to conquer did not waver at the moment early in december when the german
