IN REEL LIFE

Everything comes out all right in
court. This is one of the most novel
and daring traditions of Filmdom.
Some of these barroom scenes are
the only places in the world where
you can drill up to the mahogany and
drink all you want without making
any move to pay for it.
There. is no end of fun possible by
pretending something is dynamite
that isn't. 1t has been that way since
motion pictures were invented, and
before that since dynamite was in
vented
If the moral ethics of the story are
a little murky it makes splendid
two-part drama, whatever it's about.
In high life a ball is always an am
bassador's ball.
The telephone has been the undo
ing of so many villains that it's
wonder the villains don't become en-
terprising;. get together, and chop
down all the poles.

The wombat looks like a bear that
forgot to grow up, but the chubby
little beast isn't even remotely relat-
ed to the bear family. The biggest
thing about the wombat is its scien-
tific NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and the
best thing about it is that its flesh is
very good food. The Australian bush
rangers would rather dine on roast
wombat than on roast chicken. The
wombat, like the kangaroo to which
it's related, is a native of Australia.
It's gentle and easily domesticated,
and is one of the favorite pets of Aus
bralian children.

Five gallon tin cans shipped to merchants supposed to contain coal oil in real ity contained whiskey, and in few instances it has been recorded how a purchaser of case of coal oil was unintentionally presented with ten gallons of whiskey because of the m slabeling of the shipment or the loss of the mark of Identification known only to the consignee.

FEDERAL MEX|CANS

Right of Purchase in United States Given to Both Sides So They
 Can Kill Each Other Off.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The State department has announced that the privilege of purchasing arms and war munitions in the United States, which has been extended to the rebel Mex jeans of the northern states, has al so been extended to the federal forces under General Huerta, and that the amount that they may purchase is to be limited only by the size of their purses.
 The administration is not taking sides in the civil war in Mexico ac- cordng to 8 close friend of the presi- dent, but is going to treat both sides alike.
 "The rebels now control a large section of the country. have estab- lished provisional government and ar, preparing to administer laws in the sections captured and it is only right that they should be recognized so far as the purchase of arms is concerned by the administration" !" declared President Wilson
 Army officers, while not caring to be quoted, have grave doubts as to the wisdom of the action of the pres ident. They point to conditions ex- isting in the Philippines when we furnished the natives there with guns to fight the Spaniards and later spent four years and millions of dol lars, and the loss of thousands of young American lives in taking the arms from them and putting down the insurrection.
 Army officers fear that in the end the American government must step in and establish peace because of the pressure from European powers, who will demand the protection of the financial interests they hold in the republic and also demand the safe guarding of the lives of all foreign CTS.
 Considerable depends upon the at titude taekn by the rebels under Gen eral Carranza, say the army officers as to the amount of pressure which will be brought to bear on the ad- ministration for intervention.
