ONELINESS and lack Of syste-
matte occupation may cause one
L. to change ones views and Opin-
ions. When Fanny Hedden had settled
in her little room in a fiat on West
SSrd street she thought she wished TO
break away from her former associates
from the young people who had
known her as the companion Of an
over indulgent grandmother and had
spozen Of her as that lucky girl who
doesn't have TO go out TO work" Now
that she needed work and could not
get il. she was at first averse TO see
ing these acquaintance OF her more
prosperous days and shrank from ex-
planning TO them her present condi-
ton.
Yet. when at the end OF a week, she
had found no employment, her loneh-
ness became almost uncomfortable, and
when she came face to face on the
street with Nellie Benson, who had
lived in her neighborhood several
years ago. she smiled cordially in
greeting her. Nellie kissed her rather
noisily, regardless Of the amused com
ments Of passersby.

herself TO Fanny.

told her Of her various experiences

LlaL OF maintaining utuAEdlAl4
Neutrality consists Of remaining so
sympathetically fair minded between
two or more belligerent nations that
the said nations will not be inspired to
step over and hand the Outstanding
country a few hearty pokes.
This is somewhat harder than walk
ing over Niagara Falls on a tight wire
but not so hard as balancing on the end
Of feather. After a diplomatic corps
has maintained neutrality with Few
hostile nations yammering on either
sid and inQuiring what il meant by
coaling this cruiser and ejecting that
one. the members Of said corps usually
retire to rest cure for a few months
When France and England we're at
war in the first breadths of the last
century. the United States maintained
neutrality for a few years but finally
went to war for relief.
During the Civil war, England main
tanned neutrality by fitting out Confed-
crate cruisers and ejecting the United
States merchant marine from the seas.
The United States got Sl5,OOO,O0O Tor
this bum and spurious brand OF neu-
trality. but the merchant marine never
came back-which made the affair
great bargain for Great Britain
Neutrality has been q speciality OF
Switzerland. and II has stood success
fully on the side lines for $50 years
This has been easy for ii, however, be-
cause it would take q mighty deter
mined enemy to climb up into the 1lOOth
story OF Switzerland and bust its neu-
trality.
Belgium IS also great for neutrality.
It has fought harder to maintain Its
neutrality than France did to get the
heavyweight title in 1870.

bright morning with Miss Flax,
Il the dolly who lived with Grand
mother Tabby, TO take a long walk
she was very fond Of Miss Flax and
thought that everything that she did
was just exactly right
Now when a dolly and kitty start
forth in Tabbyland there are so many

her before they started that she should
not run too fast or go too far, but
she did not pay much attention 10

GRANDMOTHER, but she admired Miss
Flax so greatly that she almost agreed

1T is hard TO mind grown up folks, a"

had gone far from home They should
have known better than TO play in the
