"TERRLBLE TEDDY" WORST BOY IN AMERICA,

Homer, who sang of the big crouch

Teddy Kingsley will be four years

years ago. His mother had to put
him in an orphan asylum while she
worked for a living. But she got
work near the asylum and came to
see him nearly every day. And a year
ago, when she had saved enough
money, she took him to East Chicago

py, smiling, blue-eyed boy who loved
his mother.
Last week Teddy's mother became

arrived at night and cried himself to

Next morning Teddy woke, miss

Her Patriotisrn
BY ELIZABETH WEED

Louise Archer was very high
strung girl. Excitement was to her a
necessity, and often she mistook her
excitable nature for noble impulses.
When the Spanish war broke
out she was nineteen years ~old and
had been every day reading OF the
tyranny of General Weyler and the
sufferings of the Cubans.
Louise had lover, Gus Saunders, a
plodding, methodical chap, entirely
different from her. Since she could
not 60 and fight the dons herself she
determined that Saunders should go.
Impelled by the rafting Of drums and
the gathering Of the clans" she went
over to where he was saving wood
and said to him:
"Why, Gus, I'm surprised at you!
Everybody but you Is rallying round
the flag, while you are STOPPING over
a log with a bucksaw. Aren't you go
ing to enlistT

one of such pain that Louise was de-
TERED from speaking the word that

formant out of his hollow eyes with
pain and horror.
Louise married a Spaniard! he
gasped "Why. she"-
"Oh, yes, she was full Of fight on the
other side when the thing commenced.
But, stranger, you seem awfufly taken
back at hearing about her. II you
have any interest In her you needn't
worry about the Spaniard. She came
back a week ago without him. They
say he dug out and left her to shift for
herself"
The veteran turned and staggered
away In the direction from whence he
came.
But this Is not all of the story. A
day came when Signora Gugliamento
secured divorce from the fruit seller
and, repentant, married the man she
had sent to the war. II she was tickle,
she paid for her fault by lifetime Of
devotion to her soldier husband.
