A DANGER SIGNAL.
AS expected, that stalwart champion of reaction, the

Socialist members from the New York state assembly,
although the expulsion is a violation of the Bill of Rights,
un-American and destructive of liberty. -
If Socialists can be ousted, merely because their pol
itical tenets do not meet the approval of the Republican
majority, so ca nthe Democrats, whose opinions are equal
ly distastefuland so can Republicans in states where
Democrats are in a majority. Political toleration the
safe-guarding of the rights of the minority, are funda
mental principles of the republic. Violation, under what
ever excuse, is fatal to democracy.
That the action of the New York assembly is recog
nized as a danger signal is shown by the storm of protest
aroused in the east The New York bar association, un
der the leadership of such eminent Republicans as Charles
E. Hughes and George W. Wickersham has adopted reso
lutions declaring that the action "destroys the very foun
dations of representative government, and appointed a
committee, headed by Judge
ing the political rights of Socialist assemblymen and their
constituentsa committee the
to participate in the hearings.
The expulsion is recognized, no; as the fight of the
Socialists, but as the fight of every citizen who believes in
representative government. That such action is possible,
shows how far the nation is drifting away from the ideals
of its founders, lhat it is done

HlNTIXG FOR A BEE-TREE.
It was a very hot summer's day. Ev
en up on Blue Mountain Cuffy Bear
felt tha heat And he wished that he
might get rid of his thick coat But tho
Cuffy was beginning to believe himself
a very wis little bear, he could think
of no way to slip off his heavy black
fur. So he- sat down in the shade of
a big tree, where the breeie blew upon
him; and tried to be as cool as he
could.
Except when he was as'.eep It was
not often that Cuffy was still for so
long. But now he sat motionless for
some time, with his bright red tongue
hanging out of his mouth like a dog's.
Yes, he was quite still all but his lit
tle, beady, bright eyes. They kept mov
ing all the time. And they saw many
things, for something or other Is al
ways happening in the forest.
Cuffyvsaw a gray squirrel stick Its
head up from the crotch of a tree
nearby and peep at him. And he wat
ched a wary old crow as he rested
high In a tree-top and cawed a greet
ing to some friends who were flying
past on their way to Farmer Green's
cornfield. And Cuffy noticed a bee as
It lighted, on a. wild-flower right in
front of him and sucked the sweetness
out of It. But Cuffy didn't pay much
I was dead, but Immediately I found
that It was Alice who bent over me,
her arms laden with flowers.
Tries To Smile.
I tried to smile at her, but my Hps
felt stiff. I was however, Invigorated
by the woody Bcent of my favorite
flower. .
' "Why did you bring so many?" I
whispered.
"Because, when I was going to buy
them," she answered, "I met Karl
Shepard at tho door of the florist
shop and he insisted upon buying all
they had. 'Tell hef how we all miss
her.' ha said- 'The old Country Club
isn't a bit like itself, and we expect
her to get well just as soon as she
can, and make us all happy again."
"But what about me, Alice?" I ask
ed. "How can I make others happy
when I shall never be happy again?"
"Yes you will, my dear, yes you
will. Whatever you teel now, the time
will surely come when you will know
that 'whatever Is, Is right!' "

attention to that And since he soon
began to feel cooler he was just won
idering what he would do next when it
occurred to him that several bees had
'lighted upon the flowers near him, and
ithat they had all flown off In the same
'ilirertlnn.
All at once Cuff? forgot how hot
nnrt iincnmhnrtsble he had been; for
now he was wondering If those bees
weren't all of them flying home to
make honey out of the sweet juices
thev had drawn from the flowers. And
iif they were and if he could only fol
low them then he would find the tree
j where they lived and he could have all
I the honey he wanted to eat.
j So Cuffy followed on a little way in
'the direction in which the bees had
1 disappeared. And then he sat down
! again and waited and watched very
carefully.
! For a long time nothing happened
And Cuffy was just about to give up his
plan when a bee came buzzing past
him and lighted on a mulberry blos
som right above his head; And wnen
the bee flew away, Cuffy followed him.
i until he lost sight of him.
And then Cuffy sat down once more
Again he waited and watched. And
again, just as he was getting discour
aged, another bee flew past him and
Cuffy jumped up and followed him
just as fast as he could.
Cuffy Bear must have spent as much
as two hours doing that same thing
over and over again. But he didn't
mind that. In fact, It didn't seem long
to him, at all, because he kept think
ing of honey all the time, and it made
a sort of game out of what he was do
ing. If he won the game, you know, it
meant that he was going to have some
thing very nice for a prize.
And sure enough, finally one of the
bees Cuffy wa3 following lighted on an
old tree, and Cuffy saw him crawl into
a hole in a queer nest which hung from
;a limb, and vanish. And as Cuffy stood
there looking up at the nest, he saw
as many as seven bees come out of
that hole and fly away.
Then Cuffy smiled all over his face,
; he felt so happy. At last he had found
a bee tree. There was no doubt of It

"Under the general laws of our state

in my mind establish a dangerous pre-

How Much More Tobacco
Will My Heart Standi
A Question Vital Ta Eyery Man Who Smokes Or Chews
May Cost Life to Hnd Out
By Experiment
The heart of every user of tobacco
tears a double burden. It does its al
lotted task and then fights nicotine
for supremacy. As long as the heart
wins he lives; when it loses he dies, but
before the final victory of nicotine
you pass through many stages of de
fine and decay and suffsr many pangs
Hearts sre like human beiugs some
are stronger than others, therefore
some hearts will stand more tobacco
-nan others, but there is a limit to
what any heart can stand. Tho man
who puts this additional strain on his
heart a dozen times a day by smoking
cigarettes, a pipe or cigars or chew
ing tobacco b taking a madman '
nance with health and life to lose
and nothing to win but the chance that
he may lose them He is indulging in
a costly habit at the expense of pre
cious health. Ask any doctor anywhere,
and he will tell you that using tobacco
is injurious and that it is far better to
quit the .hnbit than to experiment to
find out how much tobacco our heart
will Btand without serious results.
But the thought of quitting is un
pleasant to most men even to those
who know that tobacco injures thetn
and to really quit takes more will pow
er than they have and eauseg more
suffering than they can voluntarily en
dure. To qnit the habit, make it easy
for yourself by getting Nicotol tablets
"Some Men Don't Know It Yef
says the Good Judge
This class of tobacco
gives a man a lot more
satisfaction than he
ever gets out of cnlin
ary tobacco.

taste lasts and lasts.' ,
