BY FLORENCE E. YopER.

n OILY was never sorry for one
minute that he had found the
pups for his lonesome puppy sis
ter But sometimes they did worry
him. and he did not seem 10 be able
to make them mind as fat Roly did
without their knowing it she made
them DO as SHE pleased
But with Poly il was very different
So one evening when Roly had left
them 70 his care, and had gone off
with the other girls-Oh just 10 have
a good time-Poly was left 70 put the
fat Wriggly things to bed and see that
they were sound asleep before ne left
the house Once asleep il was safe TO
leave then and he had planned TO go
over 10 see Tom Tabby afterwards,
but getting them TO sleep was an
awful task
He petted them and he rocked them
and he told them all manner Of tales.
he rumpled up his fur and played
bear, and barked songs for them, but
they only seemed to set wider and
wider awake They pinched and nib
bic one another and Poly until he
gave up in despair.
What uuisances you are" he final
" said shaking them good and hard
81 viii have 10 give up my visit Might
as well get into bed and take you with
you in"
So with a round fat roll Of pup
under each arm he went yawning TO
bed After undressing himself. he had
10 catch them again. and at last. with
The two under the covers he settled
down 20 sleep I'm earnest
But the pups had no idea OF going
to bed. They were still for several
minutes. and Il was just two or three
before poor tired Poly was fast asleep
He drifted off into the most wonder
ful puppyland OF dreams with the pups
cy the paws. where they could not get
away.
the two naughty puppies slipped out
OF the bed They first played about
the floor. under the bed and chair in
the shaky lovely moonlight then they
vent downstairs. and from there il
was but a step to go out the front door
and tumble into the big road.
They had been gone almost an hour

wanted TO wake him up just 70 see

in his wiskers for a moment. and
then slyly peaked under his eyelids

door forgetting that he was IN his

could help him She always did. Hope

along but there were tears on his face

began 10 laugh, and Poly felt sudden
y very frightened and ashamed I've

out and made Tor the shelter Of Mrs.
Iabby. But she did not rise to meet
him, for there was something in her
lap. and as he threw himself at her
feet 2nds uarted to bury his face in the
folds of her dress he saw that she

The Pork Barrel
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author OF sAt Good Old siWash.s

"THE Pork Barrel IS a name given
10 the Rivers and Harbors bill in
congress by those who haven't
got an appropriation for their own
district.
The Rivers and Harbors bill is very
important It provides money for the
digging Of harbors and canals and for
the improvement Of rivers II IL were
not for this bill, only small sized steam
ships would be able 10 enter New York
harbor and only large sized statesmen
would be able TO stay in congress
After congressman has begun his
career his first duty is TO get an ap-
preparation in the Rivers and HarbOrs
bill Every district IS entitled TO this
We are a free and equal country and
II New York can have a million spent
on its harbor, Wahoo. Neb., has per-
feet right TO a harbor, too.
This makes it very difficult for the
government engineers. because they
must find a stream in each congress
sional district upon which a million
dollars can be spent. Nothing is more
pathetic than the sight Of a govern
ment engineer supporting his throb-
bling head with one hand while he
tries TO figure some way OF making g
ship canal out Of McGoorty's creek,
which rises in Hennessey's chicken
yard. flows ten miles through a mar
fertile country with an aver
age depth Of six inches. and empties
in a duck pond 769 miles from the
nearest ship.
When a congressman cannot find
even a creek in his district TO be i'm
proved he is allowed to take three
nibbles at the Public Building bill,
which is an auxiliary Pork Barrel The
United States is now densely freckled
with magnificent government build

MEAT CHEAPER
IN THIS STATE

notwithstanding the scarcity of
cattle and the prevailing high price
OF beef throughout the United
states, the consumers of the state
OF Washington are getting cheaper
meats than any other part of the
country. Information comes from
Washington where statistics have
been prepared showing the prices
OF meats in various parts of the
country. that the people of this
state are getting their supply for
close to 20 per cent less than is
The explanation is advanced that
this discrimination in favor of
the Washington state consumers
VIII continue so long as the Amer
lean beef trust meets with the
present opposition of the independ-
OFFICIALS admit that competition is
the last hope of the American peo-
pie for holding down the price of
meats. II Is pointed out that in the
few remaining sections of the coun-
try where the American beef trust
mas been compelled to face .compe-
tition the purchasing public has
been able to get their supplies for
from twenty-five to thirty per cent
less. But II Is further pointed out
that the Beef trust has invaded
practically every, section of the
United States, as well as corralling
the meat output of Canada, Aus
tralia and the Argentine and that
the state of Washington Is about
the last spot in the country where
independent packers have not been
routed and compelled to capitulate
to the trust. IF the meat con-
sumers of the country" says one
official. will only come to UNDER
stand that to support the independ-
ent packers Is their very life blood
from the standpoint of holding
down the prices of meats they win
be able to resist the efforts of the
trust to send prices UP to the high
est possible notch" p.
