The pay checks were regular enough ex cept that one showed one hour lew than the rest "Look here," said the boas sus piciously. "I thought everybody put in full time last week." "All exct-pt Abe Martin, the night watchman," the tltnekeeiier an swered. "He was off duty one hour Wednesday night." "Man alive!" exclaimed the as tonished boss. "That was the night Abe discovered the burglar setting Are to the commissary building after he bad robbed the storekeep er's till. Why. didn't you hear about it? Everybody is calling Abe a nero, and," be whispered confi dentially, "the railroad company Is talking about rewarding him hand somely for what he did. If he hadn't captured the fellow, thousands of dollars' worth of supplies would nave gone up In smoke." "Yes, I know." agreed the tlme- teeper. "I estimated the loss and figured that It would have run Into as much as this lob Is worth." "And Abe chased the fellow up into me miia, tne Doss continued. "The fellow was desperate and took two or three shots at Abe. They struggled desperately before Abe finally overpowered him and forced bim back to camp. It was an hour before he got hlra back, too." "Sure," responded the timekeep er triumphantly. "I docked him for the hour he was gone."

Tickets $1.25 Cheetah Described at Masterpiece of Nature We call the cheetah the hunting leopard, but lopurd he certainly If not. The leopard is heavier, more truly, catlike. The cheetah Is light er In the body and mounted on ab normally long legs. Tbe cbeetab is a catlike greyhound. No other animal so oddly combines sugges tions of such totally unrelated groups as the cats and dogs. With a body about four and one-half feet In length and a tail half as long, the cheetah stands about thirty inches high at the shoulder and with his long forearm and hocks reaching al most down to the foot be la built exactly as man has tried to build the greyhound during hundreds of years. So far as we know no records ex ist to tell the speed of this won derful beast, hut hunters agree that for a short distance the cheetah is beyond comparison the fleetest crea ture that treads the earth. It Is masterpiece of nature. To the Hon, the tiger and the leopard It is what the airplane is to the ocean liner, the swift destroyer to the battle ship. London My Magazine.
