Jappy Ca Japanese dolD and

such as Andrew, the ~rocking-horse; Major,
the woolly watch dog; Lord Of the Jungle,
a fierce, glass-eyed lion. The evening

and no child was there to see that the little
electric bulb was turned into a flash of
light. The toys--man, woman and animal,
every factory's son and daughter OF them
was in a moody mind. old Lord Of the
Jungle had shown his dissatisfaction OF
things by roaring loudly three times.
Major, his little tail dropping. had barked
angrily twice. Andrew paved and rocked
TO and fro, neighing as though he smelt
fire-or some other sort OF danger. And
the man, woman and child dolls were in
the same unsettled state that fretted their
brother and sister f~our-leggers.
Something is in the air" declared Jappy.

I'm really as silly today as a woman. I'd
cry II anyone said scat to me-"
"Scat!' sharply repeated Rosalind.
Now, why don't YOU cry, Mr.. Jap? l said
scat"
But Jappy only bllnked and smiled and
said nothing. He admired Rosalind too
much to quarrel with her. And he felt
that she, like himself, was nervous tonight.
The whole playroom seemed qulvering with
nerves,
"WHl, I'm in a state!' cried Toodle-

Jay Bird was in a humor TO wrangle with
any member OF that small world. The
fact is, Miss Jay Bird had been miser-
able all day, and the evening shadows
were not conducive to a happier condition
Of mind.

"oh, aren't you a bird" roared Toodle-

About . year and eight months ago

It went all over one side OF the baby's

TO chemist who told us to get doctor,
which We did. He tended her week
and gave me some STUFF like lard 70 put

the baby was disfigured for LIE. "A
woman close beside me told me TO try

boxes and It was wonderful howit healed.
In shout five weeks it was better and

GAME Laws ARE
TO Be ENFORCED

Fargo, N. D., April 13.-North Da'
kota is to have a double strength,
double rivited game lid from now on,
according to members of the newly
appointed game and fish board Of con-
troll who are holding their first formal
session in Fargo today.
every member of the board with
whom have talked has been unani-
nous for the strictest sort of game
law enforcement said one member
of the board this morning, "and you
can take it from me that the day OF
easy evasion of the game law is gone
forever in the Filckertail state"
The board will continue their ses-
sion tomorrow and it is probable that
no decision will be reached regarding
the appointment Of wardens until to-
morrow's session.
Under the new law the game and
fish board, which is appointed by the
governor, has the. full control and ap-
pointment of the two chief game war
dents of the state and as many depu-
ties as are needed for strict en-
forcement of the game laws.
The state is divided into two Sec
lions. Section 1 being the north
half of the state and section 2 being
the south half. Each section is to
have a chief game warden and there
is to be a fish commissioner for the
entire state. Each game warden re-
ceives $500 per year and the fish
commissioner will receive $1,000. Each
deputy will receive SIS per month, and
expenses.
There are many applicants for the
wardenships. While the board has
given no hint as to their Appointments
it is believed that w. N. Smith, the
present commissioner of the north
half of the state, will be re-appointed
for that district, while Capt. r. w
Main of Cando is looked upon as the
successful applicant for fish cammis.

SPRING WORK ON

Fargo, n. D., April 12.-N is ex'
pected that by May rs the new cut
off road around Valley City on the
main line of the N. p, will be ready
for passenger trains as we'll as
freight. ~
Word was received at Fargo divi-
sion headquarters this morning that
a second steam shovel has been as
signed to this division and that It was
now on its way from Spokane. This
shovel will be put at work at once on
the high line of the Valley City cut
of and with this shovel and a big
crew 1t is expected that the track will
be put into shape for passenger trains
by the date mentioned. @sss# .
Spring work is opening up in ex-
cellent shape on this divisionsof the
N. P. according to local officials. Big
crews are being put at work and q
great deal of improvement work will
be accomplished this year. The Sec
ond steam shovel is at work near

MIXED IN THE SPELLING.
Box Of Cigars MAY Decide Tangled
Up Appointment.

Grand Forks, N. D, April 13.-Thos.
Grimths, who was recently appointed
member of the state board of game
control, Is unable to verify the fact
that he is it. 1t comes about in a
peculiar way. The governor had In
mind the wrong way of spelling the
appointee's name and when he mailed
the commission it came to Thomas
Grifith, of the Ontario. He is an en-
thusiastic sportsman and the commits
sion looks good to him. Besides the
commission he has a stack of letters
from all over the state asking for ap-
pointment as game warden.
It seems probable that the matter
would be amicably adjusted Mr.
Griffith was willing to relinquish2 claim
to the Office on condition that Mr..
Griffths set up a box of cigars to eel
citrate his good luck. The latter was
said to be weakening and it is con-
sidered probable he will soon have
the commission.
