and settled upon the adjoining forest
You will have to get away from

reservation. I'VE were here first and
you have no right to come SO near us"
But we have selected this land as
ours and have as many rights as you
have" said the fox, acting as leader
SO the first settlers went before the
council of the forest and said in a plea
presented by the wolf:
Sir. we are disturbed that the fox
has come so near us with his friends
They are Objectionable, and we want
you to send them away and give us
that land"
"Oh, no." replied the Owl, acting as
chief of the council, "we cannot run the
fox and his friends away merely be-
cause you are annoyed by their presence
They may not be as nice or as good as
you and your associates, but the law of
the forest says that all kinds of ami
mails have rights SO long as they do not
disturb their neighbors."
''Yes, but the fox and his friends are
very noisy; besides, they have too many
visitors who make a noise, also. Now,
we are willing to let the fox remain if
he won't make any noise at night"
Whereupon the Owl decreed that the
fox could remain if he made no noise.
But soon the wolf appeared before
the council and again made complaint.
What is your trouble now?" asked
the Owl.
well, you see, we Just can't stand to
be near any one we know is vulgar and
common, SO we must drive out the fox"
Then the Owl, twisting on his bench
turned his head almost entirely around
to survey the scene, adjusted his spec
tacles with his claw and said
No, | shall not grant your request
because it is unjust. You said you would
be satisfied if | curbed the fox. [ did
this, but this is all you have a right to

Then the wolf went home to think it

A DAINTY TOILET ARTICLE.

Every lady who desires to keep up
her attractive appearance, while at the
Theatre, attending receptions, when
shopping, while travelling and on all
occasions should carry in her purse

Leaves. This is dainty little booklet
of exquisitely perfumed powdered
leaves which are easily removed and
applied to the skin. 1t is invaluable
when the face becomes moist and
flushed and is so far superior to

soil the clothes.
1t removes dirt, SCOT and grease
from the face, imparting a cool deli

Among those who are to take part

abouts. He took passage on the steam
er Montrose, disguised and under an
assumed name The captain of the
ship suspected him and sent his sus-
picion by wireless to Scotland Yard.
Before the vessel landed an English
detective went aboard and arrested the
much sought fugitive.
The fact that DIR. Crippen was located
far from land, that tidings concerning
him were flashed by wireless without
him knowing it, and that the officers
warned in advance were waiting to
seize him the moment he landed on
Canadian soil, affords signal proof of
the efficiency of this method of COM
munication as a means of capturing
persons wanted by the police.
1t is an extraordinary pectacle-that
of a vessel blowing westward through
the Atlantic with daily news transmit
ted TO the centers of civilization re-
garding one of it's passengers, while
he is in entire ignorance of the pro
ceedings. Oceanic cables have aided
immensely in police work. But any
cable system is far inferior to the meth
