Sufficient Unto Herself

This:is from a reader who knows

mother was downstairs frying
doughnuts, and the little girl aged 5
was playing near. The grandmoth-
er, who was upstairs, called down:
DO you need any help?"
The mother, busy with fork in
hand over the sizzling receptacle,
fearing the grandmother could not
hear her reply said to the little
girl:
Go to the stairs and say, I'm
sufficient unto myself.
So the little girl ran to the stairs

Freakish Action of a Dog.

Wednesday night dog belonging
to Mr. A. F. Griffith, gave birth to a
pup, but which chilled TO death be-
fore it was discovered. On the same
night an old SOW found IS pigs one
was a runt, weighing about Id
ounces. The weather being some.
what cool for the youngsters, Mr..
Griffith thought it best to place
them by fire. This he did and
not noticing left the dog in the
same room.
Returning in about thirty minutes
to see how his coming shoats were
getting along, he found that the
dog had taken the runt from the
bunch to fill the place of her dead
pup. Mr.. Griffith thinking the runt
would not have much chance of liv-
ing among his IL brothers or sisters,
decided to let the dog keep it and
raise it if she continued to care for
it. Atlast report the two are get
ting along exceedingly well. We
have heard of many freakish
actions in the animal kingdom but
this is the first one that we have
found to be true.

A Curious Nest.

Of all strange nests the strangest
is that of the Indian paradise fish
kept inian ordinary aquarium. This
fish is novel. not only on accoont
of its brilliantlmarkings, but because
it breathessair, and does not, like
other fish. depend for its oxygen on
that set free in the water by ac-
quatic plans. For the most re-
markable thing about it is its meth
cd of building nest. These amaz-
ing nests not only float, but are
formed of air bubbles. With its
mouth the fish blows the little bub-
bles and coats them with an adhe-
sive or mucilaginous substance, so
that they adhere and form a float
ing, fairy-like mass, in which the
eggs are laid and in which the
young are Matched. Occasionally a
young fish will slip out, or appar-
emily tumble out of his home of
bubbles. und circle away. finally
falling to the bottom of the aquari-
um. Then one of the parents, in
serious alarm at what has happened
to the youngsters, swims quickly to
the bottom, draws the little one into
its mouth, swims back to the deli
cate bubble mass and literally
blows him up" because he was so
careless as to fall out Of bed.-St,
Nicholas.

The president would have conferred
with the attorney general regarding
the engagement of these attorneys to-
night but for the fact that his time was
taken UP with a conference with
Speaker Clark on the currency He
believes they will accept. Certainly he
will urge their acceptance
Mr.. McReynolds wrote full explana-
tion of the reasons for postponing the
cases and submitted it to the president
tonight.
WILSON DEMANDS QUICK TRIALS
He explained the postponement OF
the now famous Diggs- -Caminetti case
on the ground that Commissioner OF
immigration Caminetti. the father OF
one of the two young men who are
charged with having taken two high
school girls out of the state for i'm
moral purposes, was needed here in
Washington and yet wanted to attend
, the trial. A postponement, therefore.
was arranged to oplige the commits
sioner
The explanation of the postpone
ment of the case against Sidney Y
Smith and Bruce was that other Off
cers were indicted and the outcome OF
| their trial was being awaited. He
considered the cases of the two direc-
tors less serious.
President Wilson accepted the attor-
ney generals explanation ana ex
pressed his confidence in that officials
good intentions. but ordered that the
arrangement for postponements be
overturned.
President Wilson. in wiring to Mr..
McNab the acceptance of the Iatters
resignation, characterized the form OF
it 'an inexcusable intimation OF inius-
tice and wrongdoing on the part OF
Attorney General McReynolds.
DEVELOPMENTS RAPID
Developments were rapid TO-DAY in
| the situation which was precipitated
by the kilograms of Mr. McNab Satnr-
day to the president and the ATTORNEY
general, accusing the latter of WELD

in ordering postponement of these
cases, the father of one of the de-
PENDANTS being Anthony Caminetti
commissioner general of Immigration
The subject absorbed the cabinet
meeting today and the president came
to his Office tonight to make public
the full correspondence. First. the
president telegraphed Mr.. McNab as
follows:

that his connection with the depart

Il am profoundly glad said Mr..
McNab,. when he heard the news.
