to the winds and howled Justify.
1t was not long after that the COWS
came home driven by a knight with a
sore back and a bruised soul.
That night he could not lie on his
back long at a time, and so he tossed
about and thought deep and bitter
thoughts. He told himself che didn't
keer about the hurt" although he was
not at all comfort bic. but it was the
idea that he, a brave knight, should
be whipped. And, worst of all, he had
shed unmanly tears. He said to him
self that 1t was fun to fight, but the
story book heroes never had to take a
lickin'. But they wouldn't have cried
anyway. He had disgraced himself.
He wondered If he could ever regain
his honor and self-respect.
Finally he fell asleep, but in the
morning the thought Of his humilia-
ton still haunted him. He brooded all
day, and toward night he made an aw-
full resolve. He would leave home.
He would go out and win his spurs.
At supper that night an enormous
amount of cornbread disappeared, but
he did not eat it. He slipped most of
1t into his pockets. He went upstairs
early, but not to sleep. Instead, he
lay on the floor and listened breath
lessly for his parents to come up. Aft

DOG THAT USES The PHONE
Really Remarkable Animal That In
diana Man Owns, and He ls
Proud of Him.

Francis D. Craig, Of Indianapolis,
who owns a farm in Brown county,
near Heimsburg, says his tenant has
a dog that displays as much intelli-
gence as any singing or piano playing
"houn' dawg." Watch, is the dogs
name. and it is just a cur, without a
pedigree. Watch strayed a mile or
so from home some time ago, and
calling the dogs name did not bring
It back. Finally the tenant tele-
phcned to H~elmsburg.
Yes, Watch is here" was the re-
ply in answer to an inquiry.
Watch heard the telephone bell ring
and became interested. The receiver
was put to the dogs ear. and when
1t heard It's masters voice, 1t barked
with delight.
Come home. Watch" said the ten
art when he heard the dogs bark.
Watch made a leap FOR the door,
and was home In a few minutes. Since
then the dog has learned to use the
phone. When 1t is away from home,
and wishes the owner to know where
1t is, 1t enters a house or store, goes to
the phone, and barks until the receiver
Is taken down. When this Is done, the
exchange operator, who knows the
voice, makes connection with
the owners house, and Watch barks
I'm here" or I'm coming"-at least,
the barks sound something like that,
Mr.. Craig says. Watch has even been
known to take the receiver down with
It's paws. but as 1T finds difficulty in
the receiver to its ear, the
log prefers Observation-Disclosures

to the elevator man. But, whether
they do things somewhat leisurely in
city hall or whether they have orders
to go slow, the elevator did not start
until the mar with the young woman
said again: Fourth floor, please. He
repeated this several times as the
elevator went upward. When the
fourth floor was finally reached the
mean elevator man cried in a loud
voice: "All off for the Marriage Lii
cense Bureau" and the man and the
woman were the only persons who left

Aged Players

Chicago, Dec. 2.-Fielder Jones,
who at n time was the manager of
the Chicago White Sox, and is now
the president of tho Northwestern
league, believes that the players share
of worlds series money should &c
into a common fund to take care of
broken-down ball players. He states
that this should he one of the first
things the Players Protective ~associa-

Jones shared in a big heap of money
in 1906, when his club got in on the
winners end OF s33.4O1.7O besides a
bonus by President Comiskey of S15,-
0O0. Jones brought up the subject
when he was asked what he thought
of Garry Herrmann's proposition of
rewarding each of the winning clubs
players with $1,000 each, and each of
the losers with $3.50, and then dividing
the rest equally among all the other
major league ball players.

Sold in Grand Forks

TO some Grand Forks women it will
be news that "Minnesota" Macaroni,
besides being SO delicious, is also four
times as nutritious as beefsteak and
Six times as nutritious as potatoes.
minnesota" Macaroni contains
more proteids than most foods and is
therefore more strength giving, and it
gives the body great power of endur-
ance without overlooking the stomach.
If 1t is served often in place of meat
the whole family will be much health
Ter. And. besides. it will reduce the
cost of living. as " Minnesota" Maca-
roni costs only about one cent a dish.
Try the handy Minnesota Cut
Macaroni. which Is cut into uniform
pieces-it cooks more evenly and is
quicker to prepare.
