'Ju OHS'S mother docs say the most nkind thing.1?," the young bride sobbed out to her most intimate friend. She told me that John was posltviely uffering for the right kind of food, and hat if I didn't keep house better he would probably die of typhoid or dys pepsia or something of the kind. I think it was positively cruel of her." Later John's mother told the intimate friend that John's wife was so dense one Just had to hit her with a brick to make her take notice. "And then she cries," went on John's mother. 'and says I hurt her feelings and that am brutal. John has been trying to tell her delicately for weeks that he can't eat fried food. He leaves it on his plate. He will tell her he doesn't care for fritters and croquettes and fried oysters and such things. There are certain vegetables and desserts he doesn't like, and when she has them for dinner he doesn't take any. But does she learn by these tactics? Not a bit of it. She goes on frying- the chops and having beans and making pie. So there was nothing to do but to tell her flat that she was as blind as a bat and hadn't the sense of a. guinea pig. And then she says I have no regard for any one's feelings. Many of us are Kke this little bride aren't we? We go serenely on our way. never reading the "signs of the times until we are fetched up short by the brutal statement of some member of the fam ilv or some friend or fellow worker. Then we are dumfounded or indignant or sorely hurt. And we say the world cruel. I know a business woman who had held a position for years who had ner vous prostration from the brutal way. as she expressed It. In which she was dismissed from the office. Yet the firm, and her friends in the office, had given her every hint that it would be well for her to resign. They did not want to hurt her feelings by a curt dismissal. But there was no other way Our own conduct may not always be the cause of the bricks that are thrown at us. But it often is. Ana if we find missiles coming our way that hurt and bruise, it might be well worth while instead of weeping and blaming the thrower to look at all sides of the situation and see if we have given any one cause ourselves for having them thrown. The sharp, bitter words from the hus band about bills that rankle and hurt for weeks may not be because he is ill- natured or Inconsiderate or mean, but because all gentler remonstrances have failed and. he sees that he must forth send a missile that will at last pene trate. The sharp scolding that a mother may give an untidy daughter is not al ways the result of a hasty temper: but because in no other way can the daugh ter be roused to see her faults. The "call downs." as the clerk call them, that she gets from the employe is not because "an angel couldn't sitit him," but because all the mild reproofs about her work have fallen upon deaf ears. If we find that we are getting these "brutal blows" from those from whom we least expect them, let us not alto- gether blame the other fellow. Let' first take a good look at ourselves an our conduct and see if we have show ourselves so dense that nothing pone trates but a sword thrust and nothin rouses but a brick-bat. The cat that is disturbing the night cannot always be driven away by word of mouth. Sometimes bricks, tin cans and old shoes have to be employed. No doubt the cat thinks it a hard, cruel world. Unfortunately some of us are like cats. By Mrs E A"Walker Patsy's Pony. rrrjuui was- DUsy eating his corn X from the box that stood Just out side the yard gate. And, leaning: on his shaggy back, with tears in her eyes. was sad Jtttle X'atsy. Her arms were about his hairy neck and she ild her face in the fluffy mane. Oh! you dear, darling old Ted." she sobbed, "how can I give you up?" Patsy was unhappy because her father, Mr. "Walter, was goinjr to give up his place in a small town and move to a big farm. "TVe are going to leave the seashore and run a farm up in the Virginia mountains," her father explained. The pony is too old to take on such a long trip, and will be of little good n the hills, so he must be sold." Just about half a mile from shore and in front of Patsy's home was a iny island of sand. So when the pony had finished his meal she put on his bridle and strapped a queer thing on his back. It was two big baskets of woven reeds, with a top on. each, and they hung down far on the pony's ide. held by straps. 'I know what I will do." sighed Patsy. "I will take Buster and some unch. wade over to the island, and pend the afternoon getting shells it the last chance before we go." So he put some- cakes and crackers in ne basket, lifted Buster into the other. nd led Teddy down the rocks of the hore, then out into the water until they reached the island. Then she spread the lunch on the ground, put the baby on the sand and let Ted roam as he wished. Time passed pleasantly enough till Patsy fell asleep with the baby in her ap. mow long she slept she never knew, but she was awakened by a peal of thunder which made her spring to her reet. Patsy was speechless with fright She knew that the tide was rising and that the storm would break soon over the island. She and Baby Buster would be drowned. Not a sail was In sight not a boat at hand. Just then Teddy came trotting up. his head high n the air, sniffing the wind. Oh. Ted!" exclaimed Patsy. "I know you can save us you know how to swim. Take us home, dear old boy." Carefully she placed the baby on the blanket in one basket and fastened the openwork lid, for it was of plaited reeds. Then, scrambling on Ted's back. she wrapped her legs strongly in the straps about his body. Home, Teddy home!" shouted Patsy, loud above the storm, striking him a sharp blow with her feet. The pony did not falter. With a loud neigh of joy leaped into the foaming waves and struck out for the shore. The water dashed over the two children, but baby was safe in the basket, that floated though held to Ted by a strap, while Patsy bent her head and held on tightly to the brave animal s mane. Ted fought with a will, but the waves were strong. Slowly he gained his way, till at last, almost dropping from ex haustion, he scrambled to the shore and tumbled far up in the sand above the waves. Patsy Jumped down and. tak ing the bridle, led him toward home. Out in the road she met her father hurrying alone, frantic with fear about the children.

TRIED BUT ABSENT COIRT AXD JTL'RY HEIR 1.IQIOR CASK WITHOUT DEI'E.DXT, Bootleasrers Tw Appealed Canses Are Prosecuted- Bondsman Anxtons About Missing: One. Can a man be on trial for his liberty and still be in parts unknown? "Certainly," was the answer given in the court of Circuit Judge Morrow yes terday. when U E Chambers, alleged bootlegger, was on trial, though h own attorney did not know where he could be found. Not only was the case of Chambers gone into without the Jury being afforded an opportunity to view the defendant, but tne jury re ired and brought in a sealed verdict predicated on the evidence. Chambers had appealed from con victlons in the Municipal Court for maintaining a nuisance and violating the nrohibltion law by the sale of in toxicants at 34 North Sixth street, lie had friven bond of J40D to Insure his answer in case of conviction. The bondsman is the anxious person now. Attorney Wilson T. Hume, who appeared for Chambers, said yesterday that he did not know the whereabouts of his client. As it happened. Chambers would not have been put on tne stana and the defense did not sutrer rrom his absence. But the bondsman is responsible for Chambers. If the verdict of the Jury should be guilty, he must produce the missing man or forfeit the 400 bond. Deputy District Attorneys Collier and Jrlindman conducted the prosecu tion yesterday. RAIL TARIFFS " REDUCED Oregon Electric Absorbs Trucking and Draylng Charges on Carlots. The Oregon Electric Railway has ar ranged to absorb the trucking and dravinsr charge of its patrons at com petitive points in the territory south of Portland on all carload shipments of freight, and tariffs to that effect were filed with the Oregon Public Serv ice Commission yesterday.
