NWYEAR PARTY


Year party?" pleaded Jack Mason of
his sister Dolly. who sat, with her
mother, industriously writing out in
vitations for party on New Years
afternoon.
Yes, Dolly dear. why not invite
your brother and few of his young
friends, the brothers of the little girls
who are to be of your party?"
Because, mamma" said Dolly en-
phaticallly, boys are horrid! And
they spoil all the fun. And, besides,
they eat up everything before We have
had time to get seated at the table.
We do not want any boys at our New
Year party"
Just as you please. my dear. But
l think you make a mistake"
Jack said nothing. but a mischiev-
GUS look came into his face.
On the afternoon of the party there
assembled in Mrs. Mason's parlor
twelve as pretty little girls as you
ever saw; and for an hour there were
games and such high revelry.
By and by a march was played upon
the piano. and then Dolly, at the head
of the grand procession, marched.
with another little girl at her side.
gravely through the parlors, around
the hall and then downstairs to the
feast in the dining-room.
Dolly glanced at the dishes and gave
a cry.
"Oh, mammal" said Dolly. Where
is all the cake?"
And Bridget, coming in at that mo-
mcnt, threw up her hands in astonish-
ment, exclaiming:
where's all the ice cream and the
oranges? And look at thin sticks
and stones on the plates!"
Its those horrd boys!" said Dolly.
1t was a saddened little company
that crept upstairs again after Mrs.
Mason had consoled them as well as
she could with sugar-cakes and bread
and butter. And as the games prog
ressed. there were tears of mortifca-
ton wiped off many a little girls
cheek.
Mrs. Ma On. going out the back door
called the boys and had long talk
with them.
Now, boys" said she, there is
only one thing you can do to be for
given"
What is it," asked the boys, for
they felt ashamed.
do as l say, and all will be WE'LL"
Young ladies'" said Mrs. Mason,
appearing in the parlor later, "you are
requested by the young gentlemen to
come down into the dining room. They
have something nice to give you"
Nov speak your little speech,
Jack" said Mrs. Mason, land then
the young ladies will understand"
young ladies' said Jack, I'VE wish
to ask you to join us at our New Year
feast. We heard (here Jack
stopped to cough a little) that you
were disappointed in yours. and with
in on hour we have prepared this sup
per. George froze the cream. Ralph
stirred the cake. Willie went to the
store for fruit, and as for me, l set
the table, and the other boys ran err
rands. l hope, young ladies, you will
like the feast"
''I think, mamma" said Dolly that
night, that boys are very pleasant and
nice when they want to be. 1 am
really glad that they came to our
party. Next year we'll invite them"

ST, MARY'S ACADEMY,
Notrs Dame. Indiana.


We call the attention of our readers
to the advertisement Of St. Mary's
Academy. which appears in another
column Of this paper. We do not need
to expatiate upon the scholastic advan-
tages of St. Mary's, for the catalogue
OF the school shows the scope OF work
included in its curriculum, which is
of the same high standard as that OF
Vassar and Bryn Mawr. and is carried
out faithfully in the class rooms. We
simply emphasize the spirit of earnest
devotion which makes every teacher
of St. Marys Loyalty strive to develop
each young girl attendant there into
the truest. noblest, and most intelligent
womanhood. Every advantage OF
equipment in the class rooms. labora-
tories and study rooms. every care in
the matter of food and clothing. and
exceptional excellence Of climatic con
dtions-all these features are found at
st. Mary's. in the perfection of develop
ment only to be obtained by the con-
secration Of devoted lives to educa-
tional Christian work in spot IA
yOred by the Lord.

Carriers to Sell Money Orders.

As rapidly as possible the Postotlice
Department is equipping carriers on
rural free delivery routes with IL new
form of money order books. whereby
carriers will be able to take money
from patrons. issue them receipt. pur-
chase money orders ut the end of their
route, and either mail them direct for
purchasers. or turn them over next
day. This is not the complete money
order system that it is hoped may
eventually be adopted in the rural free
delivery delivery service, but is Il first
step in that direction.
The books in question consist of an
order and two stubs. one Il receipt
given by rural carriers upon taking
money from a patron. and another
which is the receipt held by the carrier
when he turns the money over to the
postmaster himself retaining the third
portion of the sheet. or the order made
out by the patron.
This new service has already been in
operation for several weeks in eastern
states. and is now making its way into
the West. Where ii has been tried it
has proven most successful. and is
readily taken advantage of by patrons
of rural routes. So rapidly have they
taken hold. in fact, that ninety per
cent. of the money heretofore sent
through the mails by registered mail is
row sent by money order. Besides be
ing safe. the new system enables per-
sons to send any amount they desire
including odd change. which was not
convenient under the registry system.
The department believes that the in
novation will be entirely satisfactory.
and n great convenience to farmers in
all communities having free delivery.

said man who makes a business of
selling pets. Il have one here that
have been offered $50 for. but the av-
erage price is s25. They are the fines
little acrobats I've ever seen. For in
stance. here's a cage made on purpose
for pocket monkey. You will notice
that it resembles miniature gymna-
sum- There are trapezes, horizontal
bars and all sorts OF things of that
kind. Now, if pocket monkey didn't
find them in his home he would be
heart broken. OF course they don't
perform just whenever one wants
them to- but in the morning, just after
they have walked up. you will find
them doing every conceivable gymnas-
tic stunt. and If you don't laugh. you
are person with no sense of humor."

Successful Diplomacy.

for the claims against Turkey. $4,000.

stantinople.
| The money was paid by the Turkish
government to Mr.. Leishman. our min

placed in the Ottoman Imperial bank.
and drafts remitted for the amount
These drafts have just reached Wash-

claims in the aggregate considerably

for the distribution, the Turkish gov

S95.000 and leaving 1t to the State De-
pnrtment to distribute 1t among the
| claimants. at its discretion. and after
| its own fashion. 1t Is stated that as
soon as the department officials can
prepare the list it will communicate
directly with the claimants.
| These claims are principally based
on losses suffered by the American
missionary and educational instltn-
tions in Turkey. notably those at Har-
poot and AIarash. but there are a num-

fortunate Cyclist Lenz. the Pittsburg
| man who was killed by Turkish sol
diers while attempting to go around
the globe OH his wheel.
The State Department officials feel
the greatest satisfaction mt the settle
ment of these claims. Secretary Hay
had been told by diplomats skilled i'll
the ways of Oriental diplomacy and ex-
pericnccd in the political conditions of
southern Europe. that he never would
be able 10 collect them. Among other
difficulties the State Department had to
contend with was the jealousy of the
great European powers, most of whom
had claims against Turkey vastly
larger in amount than ours. and whose
total was beyond the ability of the
Turkish government To meet.
For more than IL decade the Amcri
can claims have been pending. Minis
ter Terrell initiated them: DE Angel
went over to collect them. expecting to
be 50 engaged only n short time. but
he returned unsuccessful. after several
years in Constantinoplc. Then Minis
ter strauss took them up. and when
he resigned he passed them along to
youu" Mr. Griscom. The latter only
recently committed his heavy charge
TO Mr. Leishman. and while to the lat
ter belongs the credit of actually col
lccting the money, it is said mt the
State Department that every one of
the officers named has contributed val
uahlc services toward the final settle
ment.

She Suffered for Years and
Felt Her Case Was Hope.
1ess-Cured by
Pe-ru-na.

Mrs. Judge McAllister writes from
1917 West 33rd st., Minneapolis, MINI.
as follows:
II suffered for years with q pain in
the small of my back and right side.
It interfered often with my domestic
and social duties and / never supposed
that l would be cured, as the doctors
medicine did not seem to help me any.
Fortunately a member of our Order
advised me to try Peruna and gave it
such high praise that l decided to try
It. Although l started in with little
faith, felt SO much better in week
that l falt encouraged.
II took 1t faithfully for seven weeks
and am happy indeed to be able to say
that l am entirely cured. Words fail
to express my gratitude. Perfect health
once more is the best thing l could
that now."-Minnie E. McAllister.
The great popularity of Peruna as n
catarrh remedy has tempted many
people to initiate Peruna. A great
many so-called catarrh remedies and
catarrhal tonics are to be found in
~pany drug stores. These remedies can
e procured by the druggist much
cheaper than Peruna. Peruna can only
be obtained at uniform price, and no
druggist can get it cent cheaper.
Thus it is that druggists are tempted
to substitute the cheap limitations OF
Peruna for Peruna. 1t Is done every
day without a doubt.
We would therefore caution all peo-

Pocket
Monkeys

The latest fad in the way of pets is
the pocket monkey. 1t is only about
two years since the little fellow made
his first appearance in this country in
his present capacity, and he might be
said to have taken the hearts of pet
lovers by storm. Now his popularity
has become SO great that the men who
make business of catering to the
whims of the people who like pets say
that the demand for the pocket mon
key is five times as great as the sup
ply. They predict bright future for
the new favorite just as soon as the
people down in Brazil can be made to
understand what a good commercial
article they have and thus be induced
to make regular business of captur-
ing these monkeys and shipping them
up here.
The pocket monkey dwells so far in
the interior of Brazil as to be almost
out of the reach of traders. He is
perhaps. the smallest member OF the
honkey family known, being about
Ave inches long. but with tail that is
sometimes three times as long as his
body He belongs to the marmot fam
lily of monkeys. and is extremely neat
in person and cleanly of habit. If it
wasn't for those characteristics. he
would not be holding the place he does
in the hearts of those who have in
vested in him.
