race for Clorilla's hand. Abraham told
old Minch that he guessed he could
stand a small thing like a pair Of cold
feet so long as he had had fair no
tice, and he went to work Immediately
getting into training. Every night
when he retired he took a 50-pound
cake of Ice and strapped 1t to the
small of his back, hoping thus to grad

perature that Clorilla's feet would be-.
At first the ice gave him shivers, but
in a month or two he had become SO
used to the coldness of IL that he did
not feel 1t at all, and he began COM

Of the third month he sent up north

send further north for his Ice. In a

TALES
Gorilla Minch and Her Lovers.
RSBy Ellis DARKER BuHefI
W. Author of"Pi9s isPias" Etc. 97
ILLUSTRATED By PETER NEWELL

Gorilla Minch was a most attractive
Of Betzville, and she would have been
married long ago If her father had had
sense enough to keep still about Clo-
rilla's feet, but as soon as Gorilla
would get a lover well primed for the
marriage ceremony old Minch would
take him aside and explain about the
Doosenbury feet. He said he had suf-
fered all his life by the Doosenbury
feet, and he wasn't going to have an
other human man step up against
those feet unwarned. Clorilla's mother
had been a ~Doosenbury, and Gorilla
inherited the feet along that line.
Old Minch would say: Now, for
forty year / have had Maria's feet
against the small of my back every
night, and every night her feet were
like ice, and if | hadn't been a martyr
by nature, and meek and mild, never
would / have stood 1t. And look at
me now. My back bone is froze solid
and | can't bend in the middle. Doc
Weaver says it's no use trying to thaw
1t out for Maria freezes it up again
every night. And Gorilla has her
mas feet, only colder" Then he
would call attention to Clnrilla's feet,
which were actually so cold that frost
gathered on the outside of her shoes
in the hottest August weather. In
cool weather they were ten times cold
er. Generally this frightened the lover
away, but not always.
Abraham Wangle was n 1t didn't
brighten away. and Phillipus Googe
was another, and II looked as If they

mass with an ice pick, but gradually
her feet began to warm up, and they
grew warmer and warmer as the
weeks went by, until Clorilla could not
get the bran mash hot enough to feel
comfortable. Even when it was boil
ing hot Clorilla complained that it
felt chilly to her feet, and her feet
became so permanently warm that
when she put on her shoes they
scorched the leather, and she had to
have special shoes made, lined with
asbestos.
BY that time the very thought Of
cold against her feet made her trem-
BILE with fear, and she told Abraham
Wangle that she could never marry
a man with an icy back, and poor Alb
raham had to start in again. training
his back to like heat. He gradually
reduced the quantity and GOODNESS OF
his ice pack, and then began wearing
a small oil stove on the small of his
back, and in a few months he could
lie right down with his back on a hot
stove and never know 1t. 1t was just
then that Phillipus Googe forever de-
prived himself Of all hopes Of Gorilla
by sending her a much larger fireless
heater. Gorilla said this was an in
suit, and that she would never use a
fireless cooker again, and to show her
hatred of Phillipus she discontinued
useing the cooker and began resting
her feet for hours at a time on a cake
of ice. So Abraham Wangle had to
start in once more icing his back.
Abraham iced his back and iced it,

ana then ne began TO be frightened,
for it would not grow cold. 1t re-
manned hot. He went to see Doc
Weaver about 1t, and Doc told him
plainly that the sudden change from
hot to cold and back to hot again had
taken the temper out OF the small OF
his back, and had rendered it imper-
vious to influences of temperature,
and that 1t was like a ~fireless cooker
now, and would remain hot as long
as 1t remained at all. So Abraham
spoke to Gorilla, and she did what
was right and began to heat up her
feet again. But when she tried Ii she
found that her feet were like the small
of Ahraham's back and had lost their
temper and would never become warm
again. They were like a sealed cold
storage vault and would remain cold
as long as they were feet. At present
looks as II Glorilia and Abraham were
to be forever separated, and Uncle
Ashdod Cioots says II is or the
most striking warnings against flirt-
ing he has aver seen. for If Gorilla had
not tried to draw Phillipus on she
would. by this time. have had a good
husband with an ice cold back to place
her ice cold feet against. But old
Minch SCOTS at this. He says that
from what he knows of Doosenbury
feet no one with feet Of that kind
would ever marry a man she could
not annoy with them. The majority Of
the Betzvilie voters agree with him.

San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua, Nov.
s9.-Advices today from Teguicgalpa
state that the Atlantic ports of Hon.
auras and the department of Comaya-
qua have been captured by the revolu-
~tionists under the leadership Of Former
President Manuel Bonilla. Govern
ment forces sent to retake the territory
joined the enemy.
General Bonilla brought about an
unsuccessful revolt against the gov
eminent last summer. Later he sought
refuge in Guatemala from which coun-
try he was deporte1. Recently he was
reported to be in New Orleans, or
ganizing an expedition which was to
attack the Atlantic coast of Honduras.
Bonilla's cause was helped somewhat
by the rebellion of Genera Jose VAL
ladares, governor of the Island Of Am
apala. The latter was recently de-
posed and came to this country.
New Orleans, Nov 29.-It was
learned late today that Manuel Bonilla,
credited with leading the attack on
Atlantic ports Of Honduras, is in this
city and has been here for some time.

MUST CUT DEEP.
President Taft Says Nation Must
Economize in all Departments

Washington. D.. c., Nov. 29.-Presi-
dent Taft today informed his cabinet
officers after scrutinizing the final
draft Of the estimate of the variou
government departments, for the fis-
cal year beginning July 1. 1911, that
there must be a further and deeper
cut in them: that they would not do
in their present form.
In response to urgent demands of
the president, the heads of various de-
partments already held their estimates
down to what they considered rock
bottom figures. The president today.
however. pointed out a number of
places where he declared the pruning
knife could be used to advantage. hi
president went into the details of each
department.
Taft believed he made considerable
Roadway in holding down the ex-
penditures for the current year, but he
hopes to make a still greater stride
toward economy in 1911. In order that
he might take UP departmental esti-
mates the president ordered a post
ponement of the regular cabinet ses-
sion scheduled for today, unit tomor-
row. Tomorrow he hopes to be able
to submit the major portion of his
message to the cabinet for consiGera-
ton.

T%olstoi's Son Very Bitter.

st. Petersburg Russia, Nov. 20
Count Leo Tolstoi publishes a bitter
accommodation of Count TschertOff, the
intimate friend and literary agent Of
the late Count Tolstoi. The son de-
clares that Tschertoff was the worst
enemy that his father had in all edu-
Gated Russia n the civilized world
and that he was directly guilty Of
the tragedy Of Yasnaya, POliana.
THE malign influence of Tsckerton,"
writes Count Leo, caused the pre-
mature death of my father, his super
human sufferings and separation from
his family"
But for his literary agent the son
adds, his father would have lived for
many years peacefully at Yasnaya,
Poliana, with his family who loved
him and whom he loved so devotedly.
The arrival of Tschertoff was the be-.
ginning of the end.
