a compass or steering gear.
The grasshopper wouldn't be so bad if
he didn't have the convention habit.
Every grasshopper belongs to a lodge and
early in the summer every lodge holds a
convention. The program of the conven-
ton consists of breakfast, lunch, dinner
and supper, and the meals overlap. After
a farmer has entertained a national con-
vention of the Amalgamated Hoppers of
Calaveras county, he has to begin life
over again with a corn planter, half a
mile of hbbled fence posts and a quarter
section of crops eaten down to the roots.
Thereafter, when the said farmer dis
cusses the grasshopper he has to put on
a water jacket to keep from overheating.
The grasshopper leads a gay life and
does not work. He is neat and stylish
in appearance and graceful in deport-
ment. If it wasn't so hard to support
him he might be popular. So might his
relatives at Newport and other refugees
from industry. Copyright by George

The Grasshopper
By GEORGE FITCH.
Author of AT Good Old Siwash.o

~ HE grasshopper is an amiable in
sect who uses the world as a sum-
= mer resort and is one of the most
prominent members of our leisure class.
He consists of legs and appetite in
equal parts In both respects he is IN
equalled- A grasshopper can jump fifty
times his own length. However, as he
usually jumps back on the second jump
and sideways on the third, this doesn't
do him any particular good.
When the grasshopper isn't hopping,
he is eating. Nature has fitted the hop
per with an appetite so much larger than
he is that in order to keep from starv-
ing to death he has to eat until he dies
of exhaustion He isn't particular about
food Anything that has been planted
by a farmer and which would bring a
good market price if he didn't eat it all
is good enough for a grasshopper. Moth
ing makes the honest tiller of the soil
so disguised with nature as to watch
grasshopper eat up a stalk of corn and
then use up the energy thus formed in

The Real Token Of Love
Girls, Save Your Kisses for the Man
Who Gives the Engagement
Ring: Be Careful.
rr-sr
By Beatrice Fairfax

H@ 0 you think" writes a young
girl, that it is proper for a
girl to kiss a man when they
are merely friends?'
once heard a girl describe Dox
of candy an admirer had sent her
1T was Just sublime" she gushed, 4
never saw a grauder, more magnificent,
more beautiful. more artistic or finer
box Of candy in all my life Words
can't describe it"
what words would you use" I re-
sponded dryly, - to describe the Grand
Canyon?"
She had seen the Grand Canyon,
After moments thought she replied
that she would use the same; that she
knew no words that would express
more than grand, magnificent, beau
tiful. artistic and fine.
A girl asks if it is proper to kiss
a man who is merely friend sup
pose say. entirely proper He is a
good friend; no wrong is thought OF
intended. Go ahead and kiss him."
She kisses him She kisses him often,
Tor that is a pleasure that once in
duIged in knows no limit Some day
she has a lover.
1t is a parallel case with the girl
who exhausted her adjectives on the
box of chocolates. and would have to
use the same on the Grand Canyon
A Proof.
Inc lover asks Tor KISS q pLOOL
of her love, and she gives this man
she loves with all her heart, and who
loves her, the same proof Of affection
she gave a man who was merely a
friend; one who is here today and
gone tomorrow. and kissing all the girls
who are foolish enough to kiss when
on his way
It is a privilege with a price, and
the girl pays. She commits no crime;
she IS guilty only of folly, but 1t is
an injustice for which there is no re-
dress that one of her sex must always
pay greater price for folly than one
Of the other sex pays for a crime.
There is a rule which clever wives
heed It is this, Always leave some
thing untold" Curiosity is the foun-
datiOn of interest, and the man is al
ways interested in his wife If she
keeps him guessing.
There should be a rule somewhat
similar in the game OF love Don't
give all" The kiss should follow the
engagement ring If it precedes it
there is usually no engagement
Long For More
If there are few kisses, there IS
always a longing for more The ca
ress that is given grudgingly and shy
" is the caress most highly priced
Love is all there is in life, but Il
becomes only q passing sentiment II
treated lightly The love that is
greeted with a kiss that was given
the mere acquaintance Of yesterday
never fingers long
Don't kiss the mere friend. my dear.
Somehow, I cant believe that he is a
real friend, or he would not ask it

ROB CASH REGISTER
ON SATURDAY NIGHT
Store of F. G. Peck Mercan-
tile Company Is
Entered.

On Sunday morning when Peter
Lauer went to the store of the F. G.
Peck Mercantile company, he found
the cash register open and from $500 to
$40 90 gone. No other property is miss
ing. The door in the store leading to
the cellar was found open and closer
investigation showed that the thief bad
entered through small window on
the north side of the rear portion Of
the store. The robber had to crawl
several feet on the ground before be
could drop into the cellar. He had
burned small piece of paper TO aid
him in his work and this, of course
was dangerous procedure. After
getting into the cellar it was easy
enough to gain the main floor of the
store. The cash register was not
locked and was not damaged.
Bloodhound on Trail
A message was sent to J. H. Sharp
Of Richland Center who brought his
bloodhound in an automobile driven
by John Walworth. They made the
trip in less than three hours and ar
rived on Sunday night too late to do
any work. This morning the dog was
taken to the store and followed the
trail, at first in q gag course as if
the fellows feet had been tangled with
something, probably liquid. The dog
then went into the street, ecross the
Baraboo river bridge, up The hill to
the Y. M. G. A. building, west past
the high school building to the post
office, down the hill and across the
river again to Lynn avenue, west on
Lynn to the Case corner, north to the
cement bridge, over the Baraboo,
across the bridge and to shed at the
rear Of house in Lyons. The dog
refused to enter the house and was not
disposed to go further. The people of
the house kne of no one entering the
shed and the case was given up. The
dog kept straight ahead as indicated
above except at the Case corner. For
few moments there the animal was
confused and when brought bgck to
where the trail had evidently been,
picked it up aud hurried or. :
Bloodhound Needed
Evidently bloodhound is needed
in This community. A few nights
ago when the clothes line thief was
busy, it would have been an easy
matter 20 follow The culprit to his
lair and clothes are more easily iden-
titled than money. Mr.. Peck says
that during the summer be mis-

barn and when he used care in arrsn-
