TO RETURN MONEY

e7ps.2o6.63 to Be Refunded to coun-
ties Contributing State-Aid Money.
Olympia.-When the last Legisla-
ture passed the bill creating a per-
manent highway fund which contained
the state-aid road money and directed
that the money paid in by the coun-
ties for state-aid roads and never
spent by them be returned to the
counties. the lawmakers placed on the
state authorities the task Of appor-
tioning $7os.2O65s among the coun-
ties. During 1907. 1908, 1909 and 1910
o1e-half the tax levy for state-aid
roads totaled $1.17S,75o and of this
sum less than 100000 was used by
tie counties. Now the balance must
be returned to them.

Centralia. - Rejecting the senti-
ment Of the residents OF 10 counties,
more than 100 members of the South
western Washington Development
League, in executive session, admin
istered a keen rebuke to Seattle and
Tacoma for permitting the defeat of
tho Pacific highway bill in the Legis-
lature and for failing at all times to
give proper recognition to the bust
ness interests Of the southwest.
Two sets OF resolutions, dealing
with the same subject. were pre-
pared. but for purposes of harmony
the milder OF the two was adopted.
BY the resolutions as passed the
league demands the building OF the
Pacific highway and invites specifi-
eaily the assistance of King and
Pierce counties.

Humor Himself.
In the smoking room of the Hotel
des Hes Britanniques at the lovely re-
sort of Mentone, on the French Ri
viera, some three years ago two Eng
lishmen met. After half an hours
conversation the Englishman from
Manchester said to his new acquaint-
ance from London:
Il say, old fellow, would you mind
taking a small parcel for me to Paris
and have it sent to this address there?
I'm leaving for Milan in the morning"
The Londoner willingly consented to
do this much for one Of his country
men.
lawfully good of you. I'll have the
boy take the parcel to your room in
the morning." acknowledged the Eng
lishman bound for Milan.
In the morning the package was left
at the others room.
$50 that is what he calls a small
parcel" he exclaimed. And what
might it contain? a package of such
size the custom officers would certain
ly want opened. What-cigarettes and
1900 of them! Is it possible that any
one could have the audacity to ask
such a favor-to smuggle 5000 ciga-
rettes into France. That chap shall
pay for this, for l shall declare these
cigarettes and leave them to be called
for when the duty is paid"
The Londoner left Mentone that aft
ernoon. The following day he was In
Paris at the Care de rEst, his luggage
ready for examination.
Anything dutiable?" asked the Gus
toms officer
Nothing" replied the Englishman'
excepting in that parcel there"
"What does it contain"
"Three thousand cigarettes" said the
Londoner, with a smile upon his face
"a smile OF embarrassment at having
such a parcel with him.
The Frenchman raised his hands IL
the air and laughed heartily. He, too
was as ready for good joke as an!
one. and on each piece Of the English
mans luggage went his O. X. cross.
Hardly realizing what had happened
the Londoner found himself riding il
a taxicab along the streets of Pari
with the parcel of 5000 cigarettes un
der his arm and nothing left to do bu
to deliver it as he had been asked.

How to Make Christmas Ball

Take two wooden hoops and, after
placing one inside the other 50 they are
at right angles, make a network of
wire around them so as to form hol-
low ball. Stick into this countless
punches of holly and stud it with ber-
ries frosted with snow powder. Fasten
ribbons to it from which to suspend the
presents. Hang the ball from the cell,
ing by piece of ribbon, which can be
run through hook so the ball can be
raised out of the way until 1t is time
to distribute the presents. The Christ.
mas ball is a pretty and inexpensive
substitute for the Christmas tree.
