the city stood several pine trees
4 and three big naples.
All winter long the pine trees had
eioried in their beautiful green dresses,
while the NAPLES stood shamefacedly
by. bare and cold in the bleak winter
Finally when the warm spring sun
shine was felt in the air the naples
could stand 1t no longer.
I'm Just SO ashamed, murmured
the biggest maple tree. "and this spring
sunshine makes me feel very queer
some new clothes" whispered the mid
die sized tree.
Everybody else has new clothes for
think we should, too"
Eyes, you're right" admitted the big,
pest tree, and he looked over the yard
and saw the fresh tints on the lawn.
He looked in the garden and saw the
bright crocuses and tulips. Even the
people passing along the street looked
fresher and brighter in their new spring
clothes.
81 think we really ought to do some
thing about some new frocks, said the
Vets ask the pine tree; her dress Is
always fresh and green. Maybe she
can tell us how to get some for US"
said the middle sized tree hopefully.
So the littlest tree piped up and
asked.
"Oh, Friend Pine Tree" he called,
~can you tell us how to get some pretty
new green frocks like yours"
Certainly can" answered the Pine
Tree cheerfully. go to work and make
yourself some"
But the naples did not like that adj
vice at all.
I'VE don't want to work SO hard or
wait so long" they declared.
Maybe the South Wind will tell US
where to get new clothes suggested
the biggest maple.
So the next time she came past the
yard they asked her.

dresses" replied the South Wind go

When Miss LaFollette is not acting

because of the attitude of the mind 1t

The point is this Each wanted to
curb the others liberty of action.
Neither was content to have liberty for
himself and grant it to the other Each
wanted to forge chains out of love and
bind his mate down.
Half the unhappiness In married life
comes from just that attitude.
Love and freedom are two Of the most
beautiful things In the world. Can't
we have them both? Must we make up
our minds which we want most and
give UP the other?

Cutting Scrape at Norwood

Sam Jones, aged IS, was
brought to Hartville Saturday
and lodged in Jail. Reports vary
as to the exact occurrence and
it. is unable for US to obtain the
facts. RumOr says that Jones
had been drinking and that he
had gone to the TwOhig hotel
and asked for a bed and had
been given a cot in the office.
While asleep on this cot some
one came in and poured a bucket
of cold water on him. This
awakened and frenzied him to
such an extent that he started
out to hunt the miscreants. In
front of one of the drug stores
he found Herbert Martin and
Lawrence Connolly eating a
watermelon and at once accused
them of having thrown the water
on him. Soon a quarrel ensued
in which he called Martin a liar
and received a lick in the face
which knocked him down. AS
he got up he drew a knife and
began cutting on Martin with
the result that Martin is expect
ed to die from two wounds, one
nine or ten inches and one five
inches in length, each just above
the hip and both reaching to the
hollow. In some way Connolly
came in for a knife wound which
one report gives eight inches in
length Democrat.
