This will be the first of a series. in my larder is a nice, fat rabbit," he croaked. Now, Gray Wolf did not know whether to believe him or not. because he knew frogs didn't eat rabbit. "Did it die of old age?" he asked the frog. "Oh, it's young and tender, young and tender," grunted the frog in a voice that made Gray Wolf gnash his teeth in hunger and fury. "What will you take for him?" asked Gray Wolf, in his most pleasant tones, hoping to get the rabbit for his supper. "One hundred buds from the whiffle tree!" croaked the frog, in a deep voice. Now,' Gray Wolf had never heard of the whiffle tree, and he did not think that frogs would eat flower buds any way. But he was so hunrgy that he decided to try and get them. So he told the frog he was going to hunt for the whiffle buds, and trotted off. As he went he heard the frog grunting to himself. Gray Wolf thought he was laughing, but decided to hunt for the whiffle buds. Gray Wolf did not know where to hunt for whiffle buds, so he decided to ask the Owl, who lived in a dead oak tree not far from the frog's pond. He found the Owl and asked him, in his polite tones, where he could find a whiffle tree. "Hoot! hoot! hoot!" laughed the Owl, and shook so hard he nearly fell off the limb of the tree. Gray Wolf did not wait for any more, but trotted away, so mad he did not know what to do, for he knew that the owl had laughed at him. But he hiade up his mind he was going to get that rabbit for his supper. After this Gray Wolf decided not to ask anyone else for information, but to hunt for the whiffle tree himself. So he trotted to all the places he knew but could find nothing that could be taken for a whiffle tree. Then he de cided to go into another wood he had heard of and hunt. This wood, which Gn.y Wolf, had never been in before. was dark and damp. Gray Wolf did not like it, but kept thinking of the young, tender rabbit the frog had told him of, and so kept on. When he had gone a long way he came to a little shallow hollow, and there, half dead, was a young, tender rabbit caught in a hunter s trap. With one spring, jray Wolf caught the poor little animal, as it had Just been suffering before. When the Gray Wolf had finished his supper he forgot about the whiffle tree buds, .the fat frog, and the young, tender rabbit, and trotted home contentedly. It was only a couple ot aays later. however, when he was Just as hungry as he had been before. He hunted all over his own woods, but could find nothing. So he went back to the fat bullfrog. This time the frog told him he had a big. fat duck, which he wouia give Gray Wolf for 100 leaves of the whang-doodle vine. After r.e had hunted all over nis own woods he remembered the woods he had been in before, so away he trotted. He did not find the whang doodle vine, but he found a big. fat duck which had wandered away from home, and accidentally hung himself in some bushes. So Gray Wolf ate the duck and went home, full and happy. When he got home Gray Wolf began to think oyer his experiences, and realized that although he had not found either the -whiffle tree or the whang-doodle vine, he had found both the young, tender rabbit and the big, fat duck. So he went and asked the frog about it and the frog laughed and told him that one could always find what one wanted by looking it for it long and hard enough.

Maxine McDonald. Pearl TJT your Winter furs in the Springtime," say Portland fur riers, and as an inducement to those early shoppers they have reduced their prices a fourth, a third, and in some in stances have cut them in two. The furs are as good as they were last Fall, and tempting displays of the richest are in the Portland windows, in almost limitless varieties. "Don't get novelties in buying furs in Springtime," say the best of fur dealers. They advocate buying plain designs in good fur. Sealskin always is good, no matter what year; a well made sealskin coat will be as exclusive looking next Winter as it was this year. The same applies to moleskin. and a number of good staple furs. This Winter's fashions demanded large, luxuriant skins, with the ex ception of the ball muffs. The only sort of furs that ever really have gone out of vogue have been the small stoles and narrow little collarettes. More over, the large furs may be cut down readily, or when fashion declares new fad may be worn in some novel manner, and again they are smart and strictly in style. With the new leather clothes will come fewer rurs for a time, espe cially short haired fur for coats, is the verdict of furriers. Little ermine col lars that will make any costume nobby, and numerous other bits of excellent fur for no use but trimming are to be had at little cost- One Portland designer showed a new waist with ermine tails dangling from the back of the collar. "I have a strip of ermine," she said, 'that I have worn for 13 years, with the exception of one year. It has ap peared on suits, coats, blouses and gowns, and is still good." It is so with many of the furs that are now on sale in the shops. Mole skin stoles. Beaver sets. Russian blue fox. Fitch and Alaskan silver fox seem to be cast especially for Spring bargains, yet all of them are in high demand every Fall and Winter. TfiESMDmNSTOpyi By Mrs F. A.&lker. Gray Wolf. GRAY WOLF was a thief, as every body knows. In the daytime he would stay close in the bushes, but by night he would prowl around, his eyes gleaming, and woe betide the animals that crossed his path. One night, in the beginning, when Gray Wolf was thin, he went out to take his walk. Hungrily he looked for food, but could find none. But on his way home he passed a little pond, in the middle of which sat a large, fat bullfrog. Of course wolves don't eat frogs, in the first place, and in the second he wouldn't go through the water for him. Just the same it made Gray Wolf mad to see that frog so nice and fat and happy. 'Look at his ribs; look at his ribs!" croaked the frog, as Gray Wolf passed. "I'll eat you alive!" growled Gray Wolf, wlo did not like to be teased. Is that so? Is that so? croaked back the frog. This made Gray Wolf so mad he took a step toward the pond. But the frog paid no attention to him. but went on croaking. LAWYER ANSWERS CHARGE P. C. Dormitzer Says Lynching Probe Brought on Attack. BAKER, Or., Jan. 25. (Special.) Sensational charges are made by Paul C. Dormitzer, a Portland attorney, in his answer filed today to the petition of District Attorney C. T. Goodwin, asking that Dormitzer be disbarred from practice in the Baker County courts. He denies the charges brought by Mr. Goodwin that he has tried to intimidate city officials into giving up prisoners, of coaching' witnesses to testify falsely and of encouraging liti gation. He avers that he came into Baker County because he was hired, by whom he does not say, to investigate the lynching of a stranger near Whitney about July 15. 1914, and that the in vestigation was to be pursued without connection with local authorities, that spies were put on his track, that knockout drops were given him so that he had to go to St. Elizabeth's Hos pital, after which he was arrested for passing worthless checks and was freed by a jury here. lie promises further revelations later.
