q honeymoon was spent. He had been
unable to take his bride with him to
the camps and the barracks Of the
South and West. After his return to st.
Louis his father-in-law presented him
with small farm. a house and three
negroes. The farm was just outside
st. Louis. 1t was in the cabin on this
farm that the honeymoon of u. S.
Grant was passed. The period had its
troubles, though, for the great leader
failed to make farming pay and he
dabbled in the real estate business in
st. Louis as q side issue. Some st.
Louis historians assert that the house
In which General Grant was married Is
still standing in st. Louis, but none

At Tacoma while in some lines the
supply of skilled labor is equal to tho
demand, there are others in which em-
ployers complain of lack of help and
could employ more men if the right
kind offered. Men employed on scrap
ers and graders on the streets are paid
$1.75 day, while men in positions
requiring somewhat harder work get 80
a day. Skilled artisans, such as car
penters for finishing work, get from
1925 to So q day, Machinists' wages
run from 1925 to $3.50, depending
largely upon the ability of the man and
the nature of the work.

The proverbial horse which can be
led to water, but which cannot be made
to drink, exists In great numbers In
the Hawaiian Islands. Among the
cattle he has thousands of cousins OF
the same proclivities.
1t is surprising statement to make,
and yet one that is literally true and
SO commonplace that no one there
thinks anything about 1t, and there are
hundreds of. horses and thousands OF
cattle which never take q drink OF wa
ter throughout the whole course or
their lives.
On all the islands the upper attitudes
of the mountains are given up to cattie
ranges. The cattle run wild from the
time they are born until they are
rounded up to be sent to the slaughter
r-rse. Except during possibly two or
three months of the rainy season, there
are no streams or pools Of water In
any part where the cattle range.
But everywhere there grows re-
cumbent. jointed grass. known by the
native name of MAMMA. This Is both
food and drink. Horses and cattle
grazing on 1t neither require water nor
will they drink 1t when offered.
Our first experience with this fact
was on a trip to Haleakaia. A party
were mounted on horses which had
tust been brought in from the range.
The journey they made was fourteen
miles, in which distance they ascended
about 1900 feet.
The party started In the afternoon,
and about sunset halted for supper.
They thought it strange that the horses
should leave feed of grain to nibble
the scanty grass which grew near by,
but were willing to trust their instinct
in the matter.
However, before starting they In
sisted that they be given water. The
native guide demurred to this. saying
they didn't need 1t, but, with the good
natured complaisance Of his race,
Welded to requests, and led detour OF
about a mile, which brought the party
to a ranch house, where there was
well. But to the utter amazement and
stupefaction of the travellers, the horses
would not drink.
They took it as another case OF In
stinct, and assumed that the water.
for some reason, was not good. and SO
refrained from drinking it themselves.
It was not until the return, the second
day, to Kawaapae, that the travellers
learned the secret OF the wonderful
MAMMA grass.

KEY IS sADpEa AND WISER.

Eve. Opening Experience or SmaFs
Man from New York.
aYou know my brother Ikey, of
course p, said the New York man. "lkey
andI have been partners In business for
twelve years. He has always stuck TO
the desk, while have done the travel
ing. Ikey had an idea that New Aork
couldn't run day without him. he
also thought himself the cutest, smart
est man In the big town. Other New
Workers who never get ten miles out OF
town have the same idea. Things hap
pened to me on the road now and then,
and / told key about 'em, but never
could get him to believe that there was
a man outside of Gotham who knew
enough to rake in poker pot with
straight flush In his hand. A few weeks
ago got hurt, and Ikey had to go out
or lose customers. When he finally con-
cluded to go he went with his hat on
his ear and pocketful Of 5O-cent ci-
gars. He was prepared to dazzle
everybody.
"Ikey,' says I, as he was ready to go,
look little out for gum games. You'll
run across chaps who know crowbar
from a clock
".Bahr says key, as he picked up his
grip and started OF with smile Of con-
tempt on his face.
"Well, I'm near dead Of laughing over
his adventures. He got of at Albany
and was Juggling his grip uptown. when
q boy steps up and says:
Hello, Senatori Glad to see you. I'll
carry that grip and make no charge
"It tickled Ikey to be taken for Sem
ator, and it tickled him to save a dime,
but the boy got away with the grip,
and Ikey was hung mp for two days
until the police found 1t. At Rochester,
as he was standing around the station,
a stranger fell against him and said:
"'Beg pardon, but amt you the man
who is going to build the Panama
eanal?
'I'm thinking of IT, said Ikey, sober
as judge, but three minutes later he.
finds his watch gone.
..In Buffalo, as he came. out of his
hotel, stranger asked him If he wasn't
the Governor, and then added: Excuse
me while 1 knock that fly Off
"Ikey rather carried the idea that he
was the Governor, but the stranger had
got his diamond pin. In Cleveland one
of our old customers set out to make
things pleasant for my brother, and af-
ter dinner said to him:
"'Say, Ikey, we've got new game
out here, and maybe you'd like to take
a hand in? It's called poker, and
there's great chance to show your
nerve by bluffing.'
A new game! says Ikey. as he
throws up his hands. Why, we've been
aging poker In New York for the last
20o years!
"And Ikey took hand in, and when
the Buckeyes got through with him he
was $40 out of pocket. Getting along
to Toledo man worked $25 out of him
on bogus check. and in Detroit he
was let in as sure winner on horse
race and lost $35 more. That same
night thief entered his room and stole
all his clothes, and he had to telegraph
me TO get others to go home In. While
he was on the way pickpocket got his
last dollar, and he couldn't even pay
car fare home from the station. It's q
sore subject with Ikey, and you fellows
must handle him gently, but 1t will do
him heap of good in the end. The
swelling in his head has gone down by
a third already, and he is almost ready
to admit that he isn't infallible."
