Loganberry Laughs By Robert Qulllen. Now for a solemn rend 'em of treaty clauses. The south wasn't too solid to shrink a little. Pity the Cox supporter who lives with a crowing hen. "Uncle Sam, Private Busi ness Only. Altruistic De partment Closed." Some democrats call Bryan a Dr. Jekyll, and some call him a Mr. Hide. Well, Europe's heart didn't break, but her gall suffered a severe shock. Jack Sprat could eat no fat, his wife could eat no lean. The price 'of meat necessitated porkless pork and beans. And now the little peoples are all nicely divided accord ing to pelf ological lines. It would be just like some ribald paragrapher to exclaim "Wail with Wilson." Now we shall have a double track mind, with switching facilities and a found house. George Bernard Shaw says this play is his last one. Tut, man. Remorse is transient. Why Not a Cat for King? Having rewarded ViSBizelos for creating a greater Greece by defeating his government at the polls, Greeks are to hold a plebiscite to decide who shall be king. It is declared that ex King Constantine will be again enthroned as a reward for betraying Greece to Germany, his mother having already been appointed regent. One thing Americans cannot comprehend, and that is the necessity of any self-governing nation requiring such a use lags and expensive luxury as a king, particularly a monarch who deliberately sets aside the constitution to undermine democracy, and plays at autocracy as Constantine has done. If a king of the Greeks is deemed necessary for geater stability of government, in a land not yet wholly emerged from feudalism, why not secure a Greek instead of a foreign er tn whom dvnastic ambitions mean more than the welfare of the realm ? Is it possible that Greece has produced no one as worthy to wear the crown and therefore must import an idle parasite whose sole claim to distinction is that he is descended from other oppressors of mankind, and whose record is one of betrayal? Mark Twain shocked England by suggesting in his "Yan kee in King Arthur's Court" that a race of cats be substituted for royalty in limited monarchies, wnere tne monarcn is merely a social figurehead, a relic of the pomp and panoply of feudalism. He pointed out that cats would be much more inexpensive and inoffensive to the people and equally useful and ornamental in government. Those whose ambitions it is to play the flunkey, would have ample opportunity to serve the royal cat, while pussy would never conspire against the rights of the people or the welfare of the nation, or bring about foreign entanglements by treating treaties as scraps of paper. If the people of Greece really must have a king, why not follow Mark Twain's suggestion and enthrone a cat? Most any alley Thomlas would be cheaper than the grafting Con stantine, and far more useful in preserving the integrity of Greece and the liberty of Greeks. Besides Thomas would never get the Greeks into war and bring reprisals and loss of territory and the reactionary Constantine certainly will. And a cat is a' good enough king for such a fickle people. RIMOIDS - (Tablets or Granules) p Est INDIGESTION TaW dry on tongue or with hot or cold water. QUICK RELIEF! Pjflt, 28-50-75 MAOB UV SCOTT Si SOWN! , MAKERS OF POTTS EMULSION Two Worthy Efforts Two efforts now underway should command universal support the annual roll-call for the American Red Cross, and the drive for the Boy Scouts. The former calls for the renewal of memberships at $1 each to provide funds to con tinue the Red Cross efforts at home and abroad in relieving suffering and woe, and the latter is to provide a fund to train and amuse youth and inculcate principles of citizenship. The work of the Red Cross is growing in importance with the years. As long as poverty and distress parade the globe, its service will be needed. With a large part of Europe ravaged by disease and famine, with the1 death toll growing by leaps and bounds, with millions in distress and other mil lions of helpless tarving in lands devasted by war, it should be a pleasure as well as a duty to assist relief work and with your dollar. The Boy Scout movement means much to the youth of to day in character building. Boys whose home training is deficient, boys who lack a chance to secure those lessons in service that make for uprightness and manliness, boys who are permitted to run wild acquiring vicious habits and started on the wrong road, are the youth the movement aids. Clean, healthy recreation, supplemented by useful knowledge, help makes the boy grow into a better man. What you spend to help the boy scouts finance themselves is money well spent for city, state and humanity. Dallas Grower Sells Prune Crop DalliiH. Nov. 19. H. G.

Chambers) But what now secretly thrilled the girl was that Jim, for the first time, seemed to be proud of her, not to tolerating her as an Immature member of the family, but welcoming her as an equal, on n equal footing. And, with inexpressible delight, sne remem bered her determination, long ago, to overtake him; and realized that she was doing it very rapidly. So she went to a football game at the stadium; she took tea in the quarters of these god-like young men; he imotored about Cambridge and Boston, she saw all that a girl of fifteen ought to see, heard all that she ought to hear, and went back to New York with John Cleland in the seventh paradise of happiness fulfilled,! madly enamoured of Jim and j every youthful superman he had introduced to her. Every year while Jim was at college there was a repetition of this programme, and she and John Cleland departed regularly for Cambridge amid excitement indescribable. And when, in due time, .Tim prepared to emerge from that great university, swaddled In sheepskin, and reeking with Cam bridge culture, Stephanie wen again to Cambridge with her ad opted father a girl, then. of seventeen, still , growing, still in the wondering maze of her own ndolescervce, exquisitely involved in its magic, conscious already of its spell, of its witchcraft, which lore she was shyly venturing .to investigate. She had a "wonderful" week In Cambridge more and more ex cited by the discovery that young men found her as agreeable as she found them,, and that they sought her now on perfectly even terms of years and experience; regarded her as Qf them, not merely with them. And this en- chanted her. Two of her school friends, the Hildreth girls, were there - with their mother, and the latter-very gladly extended her wing to cover Stephanie (or the dance, John Cleland not feeling very well and remaining in Boston. And it chanced that Stepryinic met there Oswald Grismer; and knew him instantly when he was presented to her. Even after all those years, the girl clearly re collected seeing him m the rail road station, and remembered the odd emotions of curiosity and disapproval she experienced when he stared at her so persistently disapproval slightly mitigated' by consciousness of the boyish flat tery his manner toward her Im plied. He said. In his easy, half-mischievous way: "You don't remember me, of course. Miss Quest, but when you were a very little girl I oneo saw you at the Grand Central Station in New York." Stephanie, as yet too inexper ienced a diplomat to forget such things, replied frankly that she remembered him perfectly. When it was too late, she blushed at her admission. "That's unusually nice of you," he said. "Maybe it w(is my bad manners that impressed you, Miss Quest. I remember that I had never seen such a pretty little girl in my life, and I'm very sure I stared at you, and that you were properly annoyed," He was laughing easily, as he spoke, and she laughed, too, still a trifle confused. "I did think you ratfler rude." she admitted. "But what a long long time ago that was! Isn't it strange that I should remember it I can even recollect thflt you and my brother had had a fight In school and thut dad made you both shake' hands there In the station, before you went aboard the train. . . Natuiyilly, I didn't feel kindly toward "you," she ad ded, laughingly. "Jim and I are now on most amiable terms," he assured her, "so please feel kindly toward me now kindly enough to give me one unimportant dance. Will you Miss Quest?" later, when he presented him self to claim the dance, her re ception of him was unmistakably friendly. He had grown up Into a spare, loosely coupled, yet rather grace ful young fellow, with hair and eyes that matched, both of a deep amber shade. "Good morning!" the old fellow wouldn't (To Be Continued.) SLEEPY-TIMETALES M THE TALE Or i l er subject to prior sale and change In price The Unsold Portion.

One Half Price Samples of Wheat There was s much said Sandy Chipmunk's store of and grain thut a few of the forest people began to wish they had some of Sandy's winter food for themselves. Uncle Sammy Coon, an old scamp who lived over nea the swamp, was one of those who began to plan to get Sandy's hoard away from him. It was the gram that Uncle Sammy wanted. If he had spent in honest work one-half the time he used in planning some trickery he would have been much better on. out ne nateel work more than anything else in the world. Uncle Sammy Coon scarcely slept at oil for several days, he always passed his nights in wan dering through the wods, he be came almost ill. The trouble -was, Uncle Sam my was far too big to crawl in side Sandy's house. And he knew that the only way he could get at the grain was to persuade somebody to bring it outside for him. At last he thought of a fine scheme. And as soon as it came into his head he hobbled over to Sandy Chipmunk's home. I say hobbled, because' Uncle Sammy had a lame knee. He -(always eVilmed that he was injured in battle. But almost every one knew that he hurt his knee one time when Farmer Green caught him stealing a hen, When he reached the pasture Uncle Sammy found Sandy Chip munk just starting away to hunt for nuts. gald. He spoke very pleasantly, though he was go sleepy that he felt disagreeable enough. "I've come over to buy something from your store." "My store!" Sandy Chipmunk exclaimed. "Yes! said Uncle Sammy Coon. "I've heard you have a store here with a heap of nuts and grain to ell." Now, it had never occurred to Sandy Chipmunk to sell any of the food he had gathered for the winter. But when Uncle Sammy put the idea in his head Sandy rather liked It. "I have a fine stock, to be sure" I he said.. "The nuts are speedi ly good. How many would you like to buy?" But Uncle Sammy Coon told him he didn't want any nuts. "I never eat them." he said. "It's grain that I want. And I'll buy as much as you care to sell. Bring a sample of it up here," he urged. "I'd like to see if it's ,is good as people say So Sandy Chipmunk darted into his. house. And soon he appeared again with his cheek-pouches cramed full of wheat kernels. "There!" he creied, when he had dropped the grain in front of Uncle Sammy. "Just try a little of it! You'll agree with me that it's, very fine." I Uncle Rjimmy not only tried a little. He gobbled up every single kernel. "It seems to me to have a queer rste, he said. Bring up some more!" And Sandy scurried down into his house again, to hop up in a few moments with another sample of his grain. Once more Uncle Sammy ate it all. "It's a bit damp," he remnrked, as he smacked his lips. "I hope ibOUtJ its not mo,3y, . . You'd better nuts ' ,et me fiee another sample." kind with you, started to tnink or buying thut I guess I can't trade after all." And he hobble away. When sanay heard that, and saw the old fellow leaving, he be gan to scold. t yuu guine to pay me ! for what you've enten?" he asked "What! Pay you for the sam- . fries?" Uncle Sammy asked. "I self. " a t3 chiPmuilt J 1 nde Sammy had "m "'inter's supp,v guess young man, you dont know Sammy Coon r, ' Uncle Sammy declared the next heap of kernels to be altogether too dry. And he kept ordering Sandy to fetch more for him to "taste," as he called it. Some of the wheat he considered too ripe, and some too green. Some of the kernels so he Slid were too lit tle, and others too big. And fin ally he even told Sandy Chipmunk that he was afraid Sandy was trying to sell him last year's wheat. Now, Sandy knew that his wheat was fresh iall of it. So he went down and brought up still another load. Uncle Sammy ate that more slowly, for by this time he had a good meal. "How do you dike it?" Sandy asked him. "It's fair," Uncle Sammy rep lied. "Bu,t I believe it's next year's wheat.
