"I ruew you got to cut my hair.-" "No," said Emil soothingly, "l don't got to cut It. You grot to get It cut." "You've got It," T. Paer agreed, "I've 'got to set It cut or I've sot to sleep in the woodshed." "It ain't so. Is it?" Emit asked sym pathetically. "That's no place to sleep in." That's where Ma says I will." T. ; Paer answered gloomily, '"Nd," he 'added grimly, '."the Lord knows what'U . happen to you if you don't do the Job Tight" - "The lobs I do," Emil purred as he tucked a towel around the little man's neck with professional deftness. -The ! ,"Jobs I do." he repeated, "are always . right 1 "You ought to've been behind the -:door when I got home the last time." ., T. Paer grinned. "You'd a started right , An learriin' your trade all over again." ! ''It can not be," Emil exclaimed. "The t missus, did she not like it?" "I don't guess so," T. Paer answered. ' "She said I made her think of .SI .Slocum's mule Maud when I stuck my .head In the door." "No'!" Emil exclaimed incredulously. "It was a good haircut" "Ma said it was. too good," T. Paer v answered. "She said you cut too much of it off." t " "But," EmU insisted, "when your hair vis cut it must be cut oft" '. "Ma said," T. Paer contended dog "gedly, "they wosn't no use of cuttln so v Tituch off n 'round the ears that they ' looked like the wings of a airplane." ' "It is your ears," Emil argued. "They can not be cut" "I know it." T. Paer admitted gloom ily. "The stuff they're made of must ta been awful cheap when the Lord " gimme mine." - "They are generous," Emil mused, ey Jng them closely. "They are for a big ger head." fV; "They wouldn't be so bad if they'd : '. lay back, T. Paer muttered., "When I was a kid every time I'd see a horse get mad I'd get jealous." "There are things," Emil consoled. "worse than big ears. , "Maybe." T. Paer conceded doubt fully, "but they don't stick out so." "We will make-the hair long this time," Emil promised, "and then the ear they will be bid." ' "Ma wants," T. Paer suggested, It to be : long on the sides, - nd , long on the back 'nd long on the top Where they is any lid, he concluded disgustedly,; "she wants it combed back like the wind was blowin' In my face all the time.". "It is the way," .Emil smiled, "that all women want it cut when it can't be." "She 3orft want the skin to show on the back of my neck." T. Paer con tinued, "but they' a some sense in that." !."When It is long: behind." Emil re marked.- "it must be trimmed often." "It's easier to ret5 it trimmed." T. Paer replied, "than to see if I've washed behind my ears. "So," EmU coincided, "the long hair t bides the dirt" "Have yon got any stuff," T. Paer asked hopefully, as EmU paused in his snipping to squint at his handiwork, to take hair out that'll work better n the stuff you got to put it in?" "My customers," Emil answered can didly, "they-want to put it In, not to taka It out" "I know." T. Paer said, "but can you take it out?" "It can be done," Emil admitted, "but it is not done. "I was Just thinkin'," T. Paer con tinued thoughtfully, . "it'd be a great comfort if I didn't have any at all." "It would be." Emil searched for his word. "Alluring, is it not?" he asked. "It would -be comfortable," T. Paer insisted. "I wouldn't always be gettin It cut wrong 'nd I wouldn't have to keep combin it back before every meal. "Your head," EmU suggested, "I could shave it" "I cut it long unless I can cut it out," T. Paer answered firmly, "but I wish I didn't have any." "It is strange," . Emil observed," "such a wish." - ' "Maybe," T. Paer admitted, ,"mit It I didn't have any maybe Ma'd get use to my ears." i. -sg35Kl -ML. 'Ug LJ? Bedtime s kii--hr TORIES ", - Farmer Brown's .

" Parmer Brown's Boy.' - TT HAPPENED that Farmer Brown'sH ;JL Boy decided to go berrying on the very day that Mother Bear led Boxer and Woof-Woof to the berry patch on the foot of the Great Mountain., Farmer Brown's Boy knew all about that berry patch. He knew that the biggest and best berries for miles around grew there, so it was straight for this very patch that he headed that, morning with a pail in each hand. V He got there just about an hour after the . Bear, family : had left in such a hurry. He began picking at a place where none of the Bears had been. Be Was a rapid picker and he soon had one pail filled. He put It under a bush out of the sun and with the other moved on to, another place. "i "Hello!" he exclaimed, "somebody has ,been here before me. Stow, I -wonder who it was? Whoever it was, it was a mighty . careless picker. - Just look at those berries 'on the ground! He must ..have knocked off as many as he picked. And just see how he trampled down these bushes! It is a shame to break them down like this. There isn't any reason for it. I'd like to tell him what- r" - Farmer Brown's Bioy didn't finish. In stead, he gave a long, low whistle and ' abruptly stood up for a look all around. In a soft spot he had discovered part f a big footprint and the marks of big jclaws. ' : ' "So that's it ! Buster Bear has been ; fcerel he exclaimed. - ,, Bight, away Farmer Brown's-Boy was more Interested in what Buster Bear had ' been doing than ip picking berries hlm : self. He wasn't afraid. He knew that .if Buster saw him first he wouldn't get .so much' as a glimpse of Buster's black coat le conld see all over the berry patch, and no one as big as Buster Bear could possibly hav e been there and kept least nere mis very morning," mut- tered Tarrner Brown's Boy. "I should think. ;by the looks, that half a doaen Bears had been here. I wonder if he heard me coming and that frightened him away? I would like to see him eat ing berries. Quels !

He could see Yellow-Jackets fly ing about a certain little bush growing from a mound, and knew at once that their home was there. Then he grinned. "Those Yellow-Jackets are in a dread ful temper," said he. "Looks to me as if they had been disturbed very! recently. I wonder what Buster Bear knows about it? From the way those bushes over there are broken, I should say that some one left here in a great hurry and didn't look where he was going. My, I wish I had been here! I certainly do. ft U)5,-.

Hello, here is another track and, unless I am greatly mistaken, it Is different from that other one. Now what does this mean? Can it be that there are two Bears here? It certainly does look like it. I think I will have to watch this berry patch for a few days and see what I can see. Now I've got to get busy if I want to get this pail filled. I can't let. a couple of Bears have all the berries." So , Farmer Brown's Boy once more set to work and, picked steadily, only looking up from his work now and then to. see if by any chance Buster Bear had returned. But Buster didn't return, and after a while the paij was filled and Farmer Brown's Boy prepared to start for the long tramp home. It was then that he heard a queer sound in the woods back of him. He turned and stared. "Sounds as if there is some one crying in there," thought he. - (Copyright. J 921, by T. W. Bnreaa) The next story -Bear." "A Queer Kind of Jordan Classifies Rare Fish Captured By Newport Doctor Newport, Or., Oct. 3. According to letter from Dr. David Starr Jordan of Stanford unlversitty an authority on fish, a photograph of an odd fish cap tured by Dr. Walter M. Berry in the Pacific near here, which had been cent him by Joseph Patterson,' shows a rare specimen. He classifies the fish as a subatka called plagyodus. or, more often, alepisarua. From the photograph, which obscured the ventral fin, he said ft was impossible to determine . whether it was an alepisaurusaesculapius or plagyodus borcalie. The' former 'has: eight rays and the ' latter four In the ventral fin. Only four speciment of the latter have been captured, and but few of the for mer. 1 A rare crab, not pictured In natural histories found here, was forwarded to Dr. Jordan to be classified.
