OFF TO SEE THE
Tinker Bob, Silky and Major Pole Cat
went back to the Talace for a night's
rest. The King was not satisfied w-tn
his visit to the Lake so he planned to
return the following day. Jack, the
Wood Rat, had a lunch prepared for
the Kins end his friends. He was a
great little fellow to gather everything
he could find and he had found some
fine big blackberries. Silky surely
liked the blackberries for a change so
they had a 3 east.
After the feast the King made a fire
outside the Palace and sat there with
his friends enjoying the evening. Jack,
.the Rabbit, brought his family and it
wasn't long till Chief Porky came along.
Well, they had a fine evening. But
.Tinker Bob desiring to retire early
soon sent them away for he wanted to
get an early start in the morning and
would need a good rest.
Major Pole Cat stretched out by the
fire and really slept well. It was ra
ther unusual for him to sleep soundly
all night for that's the time he likes
to scout tabout the forest and see what
is going on. I suppose though, that he
was thinking of the good time he would
liave with the King the next day.
You must remember that Silky didn't
Sleep out of doors. He was just a
little to timid and suspicions to do any
thing like that. He slept close to the
King.
Tinker Bob had planned to get up
early in the morning, but being very
tired he knew that it would be possi
ble for him to oversleep. So he ar
ranged witVi the earliest fellow in the
whole forest to call him at sunrise.
"Who do you think it was? Well, it
was Mr. Purple Martin. The' King
knew he could depend on Mr. Martin
to do him this favor for he always an
nounced the coming of the Sun just a
few moments before he came into view.
Well, it seemed only a short time
till the King heard Mr. Martin calling.
Silky had only gotten a good start, at
least it seemed that way to him, and

FISHING PARTY
Jack, the Wood Rat, had a lunch pre
pared for the King and his friends.
he didn't want to wake up till the King
tii'Ulfvl his nose with a feather.
'AV are readv for another day at the
Lakei. This day we will see some of
the other creatures. I have heard that
today is the day for a fisherman's meet
ing at the Lake, and we must get there
early to see all that's going to happen
All rieht. let us set in and go."
Before they knew it the King had
tapped the Stone of Knowledke and the
feature of His uesire was mere wun
the Magis Basket ready to take the
Kin d his companions to the fisher
man's nartv. We will see tomorrow
whether there was a party or not.
Next The First Fisherman Arrives.
WEDDING RINGS
Deauville, France, Sept. 3. A young
American fhi about to enter the rou
lette room at ".he Casino was stopped
a few days ago by the uniformed Cer-l-erus
at the door and politely but firm
ly refused admittance. "Too young-,"
ruled the brass buttoned official.
Dis-ippointed she stood by for a few
moments and noted a yor.ng French
woman aboxit her own age beii:g bowed
into the gambling room by the samo
lackey who had refused her admittance.
A plain little gold Land which the
oung Frer.ch woman wore on the third
finger of her left hand when ahjwn to
the doorkeeper had proved the open se
same. The young American girl called on a
jeweler the next morning and, accom
panied by her i sual dancing partner,
again appeared at the door of the Ca
sino that evening and to the doorkeep
er, again objecting said: "I'm married,"
displaying the wedding ring purchased
that morning. She was admitted.
"We can't ask every woman to pro
duce her marriage contract," said the
"ackey.
The jewelers aie wondering what is
causing the unpi eceden':ed demand for
wedding rings tclally out of proportion
with the nctices of coming marriages
posted at the Town Hall.
TOBACCO SMOKE SEEMS
TO BE LOADED UP
Chicago, Sept. 5. The Board of Man
agers of the Anti-Cigarette league an
nounce that they have procured the re
sults of investigations of American med
ical laboratories and the London Lancet
Labratory which disclosed, that in ad
dition to nicotine, cigarette and tobac
co smoke were found to contain, prussic
acid, acrolein and carbon monoxide.
"These gases were used in large
quantities in the late world war to kill
soldiers," adds the announcement.
"There were also found several other
dead'y poisons, including furfural, an ir
ritating substance said to be about fifty
times as poisonous as ordinary alcohol."

THE GOLDEN RULE
We have the wisest teacher, and she
has this rule
That helps us in our lessons you can
use it in your school.
Always add a smile or two when things
are going wrong.
Subtract the frowns that try to come
when lessons seem too long.
Then multiply your efforts when the
figures won't come right.
Divide your pleasures day by day with
everyone one in sight.
Now if you always use this rule you'll
have a happy day,
For lessons then are easy, and the
hours fly away.
Last night was a great night to sleep
and just what have you done to de
serve it?
Statistical sleuth advocates bobbed
hair for women because he says girls
waste 6.545,000,000 hours per year "do
ing up" their tresses.
The Office Cat advocates clipping the
noses because girls waste 9.657,987,309
hours per year powdering that organ.
"I wane twenty miles on a gallon
yesterday."
"That's nothing; I went two months
on a quart."
Farewell, brides of June, hy now the
first glamor has departed. Honey, once
a cross between a motion picture hero
and a plumed knight, is now a lot like
other men, inclined to be careless in
his dress, and eternally hungry. Dust
gathers in the new home much as it
does in mama's, and the grass needs
cutting when the plumed knight gets
up the necessary steam. After June the
bride becomes just another married wo
man. A man will chase a golf ball all over
the links because it's too not to go
to church.

AN INTIMATE NOTE STRUCK. !
"How's Dr. Pate?" asked Ned of his
secretary, by way of changing the sub
ject. "Peter? Oh, as well ,as ever and as
self-satisfied. Do you know, Ned, some
times I think that I shall never marry
Peter at all. In fact, that I il'iall never
marry anyone. Yes, it's a fact. I don't
know what makes me feel this way, but
there it is."
"You not marry?" laughed Ned. "Why
you are about the very last girl in all
the world that one would pick out for
an old maid. My dear, three years
from now you will be settled comfort
ably out in Darbyville with Dr. Peter
and just as domesticated as possible.
Mark my words."
Here Arline made a wry face. "You
certainly dispose of me and my fu
ture calmly, Ned. Reminds me of old
times," this reflectively.
At her words Ned winced and turn
ed away. It was as though she had
brought up some subject that lay like
a ghost between them.
"Old days are dead days. Arline. I
think we agreed to that many a moon
ago," he answered after a pause.
"True. But how the memories do per
sist. Sometimes I seem to slip out
of the present into the past willy-nilly,
and it is then that I feel that 1 can
never marry Peter," said the girl wis
fully.
"Dr. Wilson is a fine man and will un-
A WASTE OF WIND.
There's a young gentleman
In our block who is learning
To play the bugle. I have
Never been able tr; figure wrhy
Anybody would want to pla5'
A bugle. It certainly
Has been a very painful
Experience for all concerned.
He has got so now that he
Can give a rough sketch
Of most of the bugle calls
And he attempts to regulate
The. life of our neighborhood
On the regular army plan.
At 7 in the morning
He sounds the reveille, or
Something that approximates it.
But it doesn't do any good.
Nobody gets up at 7 o'clock.
That's the middle of the night.
At noon he sounds the mess call,
But nobody eats at noon.
At 9 o'clock at night
He sounds what we suppose
Is taps. He gets one or two
Notes correctly, but nobody
Ever goes to bed at 9 o'clock.
So this young gentleman
Is wasting a lot of time
And wasting enough wind
To run all the windmills
In Holland twenty-four
Hours a day. Or to run
Congress steadily for years.
THINGS TO THINK ABOUT.
The unicorn has one horn and would
be a queer looking animal if there
were such an animal.
Many a man is never heard of until
he gets into the cabinet and even
then he isn't.
One of the largest pieces of concrete
profanity in this country is the Croton
dam.
If the Rocky mountains were spread
out fiat on the ground it would be
easier t,o fly over them in an air
plane. If a room in the apartment is too
small it can be made larger by taking
the wallpaper off.
California has the most wonderful
climate of any state between Mexico
and Oregon.
If all the gunpowder in the United
States were put in one pile and a
match were touched to it it would blow
up.
A JAZZ POET.
I used to write sonnets lugubrious
And looked upon wit as a thief.
Since then I have become more salu
brious; This life has sufficient of grief.
I toiled upon measures ephonious
The classical world to endow,
But as a Jazz Poet trombbnious
I'm very much happier now!

claim not to be fond of the sort oi iue

surely Dr. Wilson must represent just

seems to elude me at every turn. No,
I'm not a success at all. even, I seem to
be a singularly dismal failure.
"Nonsense," answered Arline,' sharp

as wonderful as you ever were, and
it's certainly not your fault if you find
out that you have married an ambitious
wife. No, indeed. You're not the fail
