Troy .vas a great city of great riches over in Asia Minor. Its- king was Priam. Ulysses bad agreed to help Mene laus if anything hapened to him, but he had married since then and he had a son named Telemaehus who was just a baby when Menelaus, the Prince of Sparta asked him to come to war. Ulysse3 disliked the idea of going to war and leaving his faithful wife, Penelope and his baby ;on, Telemaehus. So he pretended lie was crazy. He got his plow and began sowing salt, which made ev trybody think he was crazy. Ulysses xpccted not to go to war if the peo ple thought he was crazy. But me clever man, much against Penelope’s wishes, took Telemaehus, ihe baby, and put him in font of the tlow. Ulysses would run over him with the ‘plow if he were crazy, and ,f he were not he would turn aside the plcw, anil so he did and they found he was not crazy. Therefore lie had to go to war much against his own will. The journey to Troy only took a ow days anil the war lasted ten years. Both sides suffered great losses, but Achilles, the great Greek warrior, fought almost until the ■lose of the war. He was killed by Paris who slipped up on him while he Was talking to Meneiaus. Achilies was invulnerable except on the heel where Paris shot him. Through Ulysses’ cleverness, a great wooden horse was erected that could hold manv men. The Greeks pretended to leave in their ships and left the horse near Troy as a peace offering. The Trojans were nil asleep the warriors came out o, the wooden horse and sacked the riches of Trov anil then set fire to the buildings.'Troy was burning and the Greeks killing these who were rot burned to death. For some ot tne snips me lasted a few days and others be came lost by the anger of the gods whe sided with Tro.v. Ulysses had many adventures such as meeting Circe, the enchantress, on her islands where she changed many of his mei ui swine. She almost changed hin into a f x, Ik cause she turned them into the animals their characters resembled-. Finally. Ulysses main her change his men into their propel forms. Then he met the Cyclops \\h( had but one great eye in the middle (f his forehead. Ulysses deceives him by putting him to- sleep witr some sweet wine. Ulysses put oul his great eye by putting a burning live stake in Polyphemus’, tlv. Cyclops’ eve. Then all his men ex cept those killed by Polyphemus ii his cave escaped. Polyphemus hearc the shouts of the men as they push ed off from shore, and he hurled large stones through the air which splashed close beside the ships drenching the men in them. Ulysses also encountered the Sirenes, the uTTe-i half woman. They sang so well that it tempted any man to swim out to the island from his ship. Ulysses bade his men put wax in their ears and bind him tight to the mast so he might not jump from the 'hip and be eaten by the Sirens, lie* struggled so at the mast when tbev reared the island, that they had to tie him tighter. Then they moved farther away from these is lands. They had a few more adventures rYPEWRITEP.

BEFORE IT IS COOKED - . - J Believing that a campaign promise of several years ago—“A chicken in every pot’’—was specifically applic able to their particular case, two “young men about town’’ took a rooster and a hen from the home of George Simpson and proceeded to fix them up in the manner that ali fat chickens should be fixed It seems that Mr. Simpson missed his two chicks Sunday morning and forthwith proceeded uptown and j told Sheriff Wood and Chhicf Free-1 man about his shortage. With Sher lock Holmes effectiveness the two officers went to the home of Henry Collins on Kings Creek and there they found one, the rooster, in the pot and evidence of the hen having been killed, cooked and eaten. The two believers in political prophesy as expected, denied having anything to do with Mr. Simpsons chicken shortage but Emmet Bell and Lester Bowen were brought to, jail (against their will) and the | rooster was left a-boilin’ in the pot. j CHEVROLET PEOPLE ARE AT HIGH PRODUCTION j DETROIT, Mich.
