GRANDFATHER FROG WATCH.

Copyright. 1913, by j. G. Lloyd.)
grandfather Frog sat among the
bulrushes on the edge of the Smiling
Fond. Over his head Mr.. Redwing
was singing as il his heart would
burst with the Very JOY Of springtime.
"Tra-la-la-lee. see me! See me!
Happy am I as l can be!
Happy am l the whole day long,
And so l sing my gladstone song"
Of course Mr.. Redwing vas happy.
Why shouldn't he be? Here 1t was
the beautiful springtime, the gladdes:
time of all the year. the time when
happiness crept into everybody's heart.
Grandfather Frog listened. He nodded
his head.
"Chugarum! I'm happy. too" said
Grandfather Frog. But even as he
said it a little worried look crept into
his big goggly eyes. and then down to
the of his big mouth, which
had been stretched in a smile. Little
by little the smile grew smaller and
smaller until there wasn't n smile.
No, sir; there wasn't any smile. In
stead of looking happy, as he said he
felt, Grandfather Frog actually look
cd unhappy.
The act is he couldn't forget what
Jerry Muskrat and Little Joe Otter
had told him-that there was some
thing the matter with the Smiling
Pool. He didn't believe it, not a word
of it. At least he tried to make him
self think that he didn't believe it.
They said. the water in the Smiling
Pool was growing lower and lower.
just AS 1t did in the middle OF summer
in the very hottest weather. Now

Grandfather Frog is very old and very
wise. and he had heard of such
a thing happening in the springtimc.
So he wouldn't believe 1t now. And
yet-and yet-Grandfather Frog had
an uncomfortable feeling that some
thing was wrong. Ha. he knew now
what il was! He had been sitting up
to his middle in water. and now ne
was sitting with only his toes in the
water. and he couldn't remember hav-
ing changed his position.
"of course I moved without think
ing what l was doing" muttered
Grandfather Frog. but still the wor-
ried look didn't leave his face. You sec
he Just couldn't make himself believe
VIA he wanted to believe, try as he
would.
III watch my toes!" exclaimed Grand
father Frog.
So Grandfather Frog waded out
into the water until it covered his feet
and then he sat down and began to
watch his toes. Mr.. Redwing looked
down and saw him, and Grandfather
Frog looked SO funny gazing at his
w toes that Mr.. Redwing stopped
singing long enough to ask:
What are YOU doing, Grandfather
Frog"
watching my toes replied Grand
father Frog gr,lfT1y.
"Watching your toes! He, he. he!
Watching your toes! Whoever heard
Of such a thing? Are you afraid that
they will run away. Ora ndfather
Frog" shouted Mr.. Redwing.
Grandfather Frog didn't answer.
He kept right on watching his toes.
Mr.: Redwing flew away to tell every
body. he met how Grandfather Frog
had become foolish and was watching
his toes. The SUN shone down warm
and bright. and pretty soon Grand.
father Frogs big. goggly eye began
to blink. Then his head began to
ned. and then-why then Grandfather
Frog fell fast asleep.
BY and by Grandfather Frog awoke
with a start. He looked down at his
toes? They We're not i'm the water at
all! Indeed. the water was a good
long jump way.
"~Chugarum! There is somethin;
wrong with the Smiling POOL" cried
Grandfather Frog as he made a long
jump into the water and started to
swim out to the Big Rock.

Our Father Is Everywhere.
The ships glide in at the harbor'a
mouth;
And the ships sail out to sea;
And h wind that sweeps from the
sunny south,
1t is sweet as sweet can be.
There's a world Of toll and a world Of
pains;
There's a world of trouble and care;
But oh. in a world where. our Father
reigns
There is gladness everywhere!
The harvest waves in the breezy morn.
And the men go forth to reap;
The fullness comes to the tasseled
corn,
Whether we wake or sleep;
And far on the hills, by feet untrod.
There are blossoms that scent the
air
For OH. in this world Of our Father
God,
There is beauty everywhere!
The ships sail over the harbor bar,
Away and away to sea.
The ships sail in with the evening
To the port where no tempests be.
The arves wave on the summer
hills
And the bands go forth to reap;
And all is right, as our Father wills,
Whether we wake or sleep.

IKE'S A GENIUS.

Not all in this cruel world are fly
swatters. We have discovered a man
with a heart. Ike Smith raises
ducklings, and is utilitarian of note
ALSO" says the Bolton (Mo) Herald
Gray hairs have come with advanc-
ing age and bald spot has appeared
on his poll where the festive fly is
wont to feed when Ike takes his Sun
day dinner siesta. But he has made
fly traps out OF his fluffy young duck
lings. They gather in squadrons
round his head when he lies down
to snooze and the patter of the little
red bills as they pick the flies off his
bald pate soothes him into pleasant
dreams and makes a better show for
the family audience than en- be found

1T IS GROWING BETTER.

Argue pro and con and you will
come soon to the conclusion that
humanity is earning now its right TO
exist by industry, perseverance and
general tendency to be good and
self-respecting. Our antics and cap
ers are not SO numerous in this day
and age, only prominent. The lime
light of the press makes indecent per-
formances perilous.
OF course the world is growing bet

lively happy in America at least and

THAT TIME IS PASSED.

The democrats of Hammond have
honored Mayor Smalley with a re-
nomination after spirited campaign
and by a big plurality. To many
Lake county democrats this action of
the democratic voters spells the po-
litical downfall of ex-Mayor Becker,
who backed the candidacy of one of
the defeated aspirants. Time was in
Lake county when the word of
Becker was law litically.-Michi-

UNPROTECTED CROSSINGS.

The accident in which Mr. S. Os-
good Pell and others lost their lives
on Sunday adds one more to the long
list of disasters that have occurred
at unprotected railroad crossings At
the crossing in question, which is on
the Long Island Railroad near what
used to be called Jackal Island sta
ton, there were no gates; and appar-
emily the flagman, after being on
duty, it is said, for twelve hours, had
just quit work. There seems to be
some doubt as to whether the train
carried lights forward, and it Is evil
dent that the chauffeur failed TO hear
the whistle announcing its approach
says the New York Sun.
These questions will be determined
at the coroner's inquest. They are
by no means irrelevant to the issue,
but they are not of the first import
ance. That is that the only possible
way of insuring against accident at
railroad crossings is to have them
protected by gates. The tale of kill
ings up and down the country as a
result of the neglect of this precau-
tion is mighty long. The Interstate
Commerce Commission ought to look
into this common form of butchery.
The Lake County times., 1913-08-08

to great extent at least if not Who'll
ly for power can be obtained from
the coal without burning it and then
transmitted to electricity, which is
no doubt possible.
Take humans away from slavery,
vice and bad habits and our troubles
would all disappear. On a Saturday
night in any city it seems az II we
were long way from that stage of
perfection. But gradually we arrive,
for competition is so severe and jobs
so hard to get and keep that no time
is left for dissipation. The Saturday
night booze-tighter and spree-taker is
getting scarcer each day.
Therefore work looms up as the
salvation of mankind. Work and re-
ligion. In agreeable surroundings a
man can labor fourteen hours a day
and enjoy it and If on his own re-
sources he can labor for himself and
his family about sixteen hours. Only
once and occasionally do men break
down from overwork 1t is more
often over worry, overeating or over
drinking.
Our freemasonry is remarkable. II
is safe to say that in the cities here
abouts eighty out of every hundred
front doors remain unlocked all night
and in the summer time are left
open. This may not be true in the
parts where the rich dwell but it is
where the laboring man lives. He
goes to bed with all of his salary that
is not spent in the right-hand front
trousers pocket or else his wife has
| 1t in her stocking
1t is very seldom that hold-ups oc-
cur, so seldom that they furnish
sensations for the papers. 1t is the
exception when our debtors do not
pay us, not the rule. We have happy
homes, good wives, innocent children
and plenty of the where -with-all and
yet they say that the world is grow
ing worse. They are badly mistaken

A TERRIBLE STRIKE.

The secret is out, The present
strike of the IL, 900 BARRIERS in New
York is the deep, dark plot of a firm
of safety razor manufacturers, who,
to gain their own selfish ends, are
willing that masculine New York
shall go unshaved until it decides to
use the "hoe" razor, so-called.
Was ever a plot so diabolical
hatched before? The strikers pro-
fess to see the fine Italian hands of
the willy boss BARRIERS in this latest
tonsorial upheaval, and accuse the
bosses" of being in league with the
manufacturers of the safety razor.
When man discovers his favorite
barber shop closed because of the
strike, he will not permit his beard
to grow Cor perhaps his wife will not)
but will simply go to the nearest
drug store and invest in one of the
safety machines. It's the simplest
thing in the world!
