(London Answers.)
Strange though the assertion may
sound, 1t is nevertheless literally and
absolutely true that the German navy
is the child Of the British navy.
There are people still living in
Portsmouth who can recall seeing a
little boy in a sailor suit. who. more
than forty yea ago. used to wander
about the d~ockyard. looking at the
ships there with eager curiosity and
asking all sorts of questions concern
ing them.
This little boy was none other than
the present German emperor, who. in
those days. was a frequent visitor to
his grandmother. ueen Victoria, at
Osborne. The then newly created Ger
man empire had at that time prac-
tically no fleet. and the child, old be-
You'd his years, was frequently heard
to lament this fact.

to remark. indicating with a wave of
his hand the stately ironclads moving
in and out of Spithead. Meanwhile, as
he himself told us, he talked ships by
day and dreamt ships by night, while
at home in Germany his favorite rec
reation was to sail a beautiful twenty
ton model of a British frigate on the

AT LAST FARMER BROWNS 30,
KNOWS THE THIEF.
By Thornton ". Burgess.

Copyright, 1914, by j. G. Lloyd-)
Old Granny Fox trotted back to the
Green Forest where Reddy Fox was
she chuckled to herself. She had led
Bowser the Hound straight to the
home of Old Man Coyote in the far
corner of the Green Meadows, and
Bowser had called his master, Farmer
Browns Boy, over there.
Now I guess he'll know who has
been stealing his chickens and will
stop hunting Reddy and me-" mutter-
ed Granny. I'm ven with Old Man
bother us again very soon."
Perhaps Granny wouldn't have had
such a comfortable feeling if she could
have heard Farmer Browns Boy ex-
claim as he came up to where Bowser
the Hound was f%rantically trying to
dig open the house of Old Man Coy
ote. Hello! Here's a fox den! 1t
must be that those foxes have moved
from up near the edge Of the Green
Pretty clever of them, 1 call it. No
one would ever think of looking here
for a fox den. Those bushes hide it
SO that you could almost walk " it
without seeing it Ha! there are
some chicken bones! We've got to
put a stop to this. Mr.. Fox or Mrs.
Fox, whichever you are!"
But presently as he looked about
more closely Farmer Browns Boy be-
gan to be in doubt, and there was a
puzzled look on his face. "If a fox
made that it is the biggest fox I ever
heard Of" he muttered as he stared
down at a footprint. He must be
the king Of all the foxes"
Now Farmer Browns Boy has
learned one thing that a great many
people never do learn. and which is
most important. 1t is this: never
make up your mind that a thing Is
or isn't so until you have thoroughly
looked into it. So while at first he
had taken that track for the footprint
of a very large fox he was not abso-
lutely sure. The more he looked at
it the less sure he was Looks almost
like the footprint of a small dog"
said he, land it isn't exactly like that
either. Now. I wonder" He paused
and looked very hard at the footprint.
Then he hunted until he found an
other n near it a. brownish.gray

II do believe that I have found the
home of that prairie wolf / have
heard bowling! I've never seen him.
but T know his voice. and for a Ion
time i've been sure that there is one
somewhere on the Green Meadows or
in the Green Forest. This certainly is
his track, and he Is the who has
been taking my ducks and chickens!
Good Old Bowser, to bring me straight
to his home!" He stopped and pat

Getting even never makes less trou-
BILE, and often makes more. Yet 1t is
the most natural thing in the world
to want to get even-to pay back
wrongs that have beer done. Granny
Fox is one Of the kind who never
forgets an injury. If any one ever
wrongs her or one Of her family
Granny right then and there makes
up her mind that she will get even
some day, and having made up her
mind she forgets. You see that
is the way the Fox family always has
been brought up. Granny's granny
felt just the same way. and SO did
Granny's granny's granny.
So, nov when Granny Fox was sure
in her own mind that Old Man Coy
ote was stealing chickens from Farm
er Browns and was trying to make
Farmer Browns boy think hat 1t
was Reddy Fox who was the thief,
she made up her mind that she would
get ven with him. and If possible
show Farmer Browns boy just who
the real thief was. She studied and
studied how to get ever The more
she studied the angrier she grew at
Old Man Coyote. She quite forgot
the time that she tried to put Bowser
the Hound on Old Man Coyotes
track in the hope that he would be
driven away from the Green Mea-
doWs. That is a wav that some PEG.
pie have-forgetting the mean things
they have done themselves and re-
membering only the mean things
others have done.
Granny didn't have to wait long
for a chance. AS before. Farmer
Browns boy started out with Bowser
the Hound to hunt for the thief. Old
Man Coyotes track was soon found
by Bowser, just as Old Man Coyote
had expected it would be. Just as
before he led Bowser straight to the
private summing bank of Reddy Fox.
This time Reddy wasn't asleep, but
he lay still. as Granny Fox had told
him to, until Bowser was almost to
him. Then up he jumped and ran
for his life. OF course Bowser saw
him and started after him. forgetting
all about those tracks Of Old Man
Coyote he had been following. After
q little Granny Fox slipped in behind
Reddy and. the scent of her tracks
being a little the freshest, Bowser
began to follow her without knowing
1t. Reddy slipped away to a place
where he could see all that happened
on the Green Meadows. He saw
Grany u around the Smiling Pool,
across the Green Meadows, and fin.
ally straight over to the far corner
where Old Man Coyote had made his
home. Reddy chuckled. He could
guess just what Old Man Coyote was
saying to himself.
Now. when Granny Fox reached the
home of Old Man Coyote she played

ted Bowser the Hound. who had given
up trying to dig his way into Old Man
Coyotes house, but was doing his best
to tell his master that Old Man Coy
ote was at home that very minute.
Its all right, Bowser, old fellow"
continued Farmer Browns Boy. Its
all right. He's safe enough in there
just now. We can't get him out. but
we know just where he lives, and he
is as good as caught this very minute.
Well set some traps around here, and
then I guess Old Man Coyote will wish
that he had left our ducks and chick
en- alone. I'm glad that it wasn't Red
dy Fox, after all. He is such a hand
some chap that I would much rather
see him running around than to shoot
or trap him. But this fellow isn't so
handsome, and we'll soon make short
work Of him. You keep watch, Bow
ser, while I go back to the house and
get some traps. He's eaten his last
chicken"
All Of which goes to show how little
Farmer Browns Boy knew about Old
Man Coyote.

There is just one way to make
your cakes rise high and keep an
even surface. Have your oven
moderate at first, until the cake is
fully rizen; then increase the heat,
so as to brown it over quickly.
Extreme heat stifens the dough.
If you stifen the outside of the
cake before the rising is complete,
you stop the rising process. Then,
the leavening gas, forming inside,
will bulge up the center, where
the dough is still soft, and spoil
the shape Of the cake. i.
NorE-Biscuits or other pastries
made rom stiff dough, that are cutinto
shapes for the oven, bake IN a hot oven.
is because the cut surfaces of the
dough do not scar over, but rather
leave the pores open, allowing the
leavening gas to escape and the heat to
penetrate readily. Small ovens cool
quickly; therefore they should be made
several degrees hotter than q larger
oven, and the less the door 10 opened
the better. Do not attempt toa6aSAy

A considerable amount of terror has
existed in Marking during the past
few days on account of the operations
Of members of the White Lily sect. It
was only the arrest Of a Taoist which
quieted the ignorant people. who had
been thrown into a state of terror.
The arrest took place in one Of the
lodging houses inside the city, and a
box containing paper dolls and a large
quantity of scissors was seized by the
police.
According to an account the White
Lilly man had on several successive
days mutilated children, but how 1t
was done and for what reason nobody
could tell. The people believed the
man had magical powers. The police
conferred their attention on the lodg-
ing houses. and at last the man want

crime.
He told the magistrate that the pa
per dolls could be made to carry his
Instructions for mutilating children.
The authorities r tracking his fol-
lowers. This case. coupled with the
discovery of Boxers in Shanghai. again
draws attention to the Toist sect.

cestor Of Chang TENSE. about 1875 A.

the doctrine Of curing sickness and

branch of the Tao CHA, springing In
to existence at the close Of the Han

were eventually crushed, but not be-
