to the lapel of his coat, not at all

a minute. The gas jet in the hall

He flung her off and dashed out,
only to fall over rustic chair. Mr..
FURRY swung the chair on high, banged
it against the side of the house, and
pitched it over the back fence. Dur
ing that psychological moment, Mr..
FURRY felt something crawling across
the back of his hand.
1t was nothing but a wasp, a little
creature that God created for reasons
of his own.
Mr.. FURRY had seen hundreds of
wasps before, and as a class he cares
nothing for them. He is not afraid of
them. Indeed, he has been heard to
say that he would not hesitate to walk
into a swarm of them If he wanted to.
The wasp crawled slowly up to his
elbow, browsed around and crawled
back. 1t did not walk very heavy,
still Mr.. FURRY could hear and feel it's
steps clear back to his teething time.
Mrs. FURRY came to the kitchen
door. She saw him kneeling, with one
hand in the grass and the other rigid
in the air, an expression of prayerful
contemplation on his chastened coun-
tenance, and she felt more kindly to-
ward him and happier than she had
been since the day before she was
married. She went to him end kissed
him.

happened, because we understand each
other better, now. What is the matter
with your arm? Is it paralyzed? Let
me see. What is that wasp doing up
your sleeve? Why don't you shake it
out?"
Shaking before taking is the nat

tone. THE wasp is already there; ii
has arrived; and l want it to feel free
to leave without mutual unpleasant

While he was making himself out a
modern Siddartha, in a kind of mono
tone that wouldn't offend the wasp,
Mrs. FURRY got it by the head anc
dropped 1t in the rain barrel.

Range Probation Officer Everett is making a
campaign for rigid censorship of moving picture
shows at Hibbing. He believes they are respon-
sible for many of the cases before the juvenile
court. At the same time we suspect that
the great majority of cases that arise
for the juvenile court in this county can
be traced to parental neglect resulting from the
liquor evil, still having in mind the case of the
two children who were burned to death at Spna
last fall, when left alone by their mother who was
a patron of unlicensed drinking places The other
five members of the family are now in state in

FORTY CARLOADS OF PRUNEs
SHIPPED DAILY OUT or IDAHO.
That Amount Shipped From Points
i'm Southern Idaho Between Boise
and Weiser, According to Man Who
Has Charge of Shipments for s. l..

An average of 40 cars of prunes
daily are being shipped from southern
Idaho points between Boise and Wei
ser, according to G. ]. Sinsel, who has
charge of the fruit shipments for the
Oregon Short Line for this territory.
He states that while yesterday there
was shortage Of refrigerator cars, a
large consignment was received today
ard shipments continued without in
teruption. Mr.. Sinsel believes that a
majority of the prunes shipped prior
to this week were shipped too sgreen,
but from now on, he states, they will
lie in good condition and be much bet
ter for sale on the market.
From reports received by him, the
demand for the famous Italian prunes
grown in Idaho, is becoming greater
every year and their value as a food
is becoming appreciated to such an
extent that prunes sell all over all
ether fruits and within few years
he believes that the consumption will
be more than double what it is at
present.-Capital News.
