easured and beat and stirred. "That will make it another kind of
red-letter day--S for S'prise."

The cake came out of the oven light and flaky and beautiful.

"Wouldn't it be nice," sighed Betty, "if it could _only_ have a red S
right in the middle?"

"It can," said Nora. "Make it of those tiny red candies of yours. You'll
have to work fast before the icing dries."

When the S was finished it was pretty crooked, even for an S. But there
was no doubt at all about what it was.

When dinner was on the table Betty brought in the cake and set it before
her mother.

"Well, well, well!" cried Mrs. Arnold. "What a fine little cook I have!
But what is the S for, Betty?"

"It stands for Saturday, mamma," said Betty. And then she told all about
the red-letter plan.

"It was a dear plan," said her mother. "And I did finish the mending.
And now I'll tell my little girl something else. S stands for Saturday,
but it stands for another word, too--it stands for my Sunshine," she
finished, giving Betty a loving kiss.

"WILLIE WON'T"

It was baking day at Willie Wright's house. Willie was on hand, as
usual, to scrape the dish and tease for raisins.

Suddenly Jennie the cook threw up her hands. "Oh, dear," she cried, "I
forgot to order baking powder! Willie, will you--"

Bang! went the door, and off ran Willie d
