whence the book had come, nor when,
but the kitty boys and girls and puppy
children all used to get 1t and look IN
it when they wanted to find present.
1t was great help Then they would
go down to the little store on the cor
ner and pick out the gift.
Roly, the sister, hustled about and
pretended not to see what he was do
ing, but she knew just the same. and
was smiling to herself. POLY had a
girl, and he was going to buy her
present" she laughed to her self. Il
think that is Fannie Hicks. What he
can see in her is beyond me-"
Poly turned the pages slowly, and
hitched up his trousers now and then
In his fuzzy forehead there was big
wrinkle. and it was several minutes
before it went away Roly looked out
of the door. Here comes Tom Tabby,"
she said quietly. You had better hide
that book, Poly, if you don't want to
get teased to death and have the news
all over town
Poly grunted and pretended not to
hurry. I'm Just looking for fun" he
said; IT don't care who sees me" But

Toms face poked in at the door. He
thought he was in time, but Tommy's
bright green eyes had spied it coming
up the path. Hello, there, Poly he
said pleasantly, 'reading?" He did
not let on he had seen what kind Of
book it was.
yes" answered Poly carefully. He
did not trust Tom, and did not want
to talk to him any more than he could
help. I'm just going out, do you want
to come alOng2' he asked Tom. Now,
Tommy, like wise little rascal, knew
that if he went Poly would not go to
the toy shop, so he shook his head.
mo, I came to see Roly for a minute,
you. just trot along and don't mind
me-"
Poly was relieved and hurried away
before Tom would change his mind.
But Tom had no idea OF doing that He
sat for a few seconds, talked pleasantly
to ROly, and then got up to go Guess
I had better trot along, too" he said,
politely looking at his feet. Il must
get home" Roly looked at him sharply
as he went out She followed him to
the door and watched him down the
road. He's going to follow Poly Is
sure as 1 am puppy girl" she said to
herself She was quite right.
Tom, once out of sight Of the house,
hurried after Poly, not down the road,
you may be sure, but along inside Of
the fields where he would not be seen.
The grasses wet his trousers, and che
crickets tempted him to stop, and soon,
hidden by the bushes, he passed Poly,
and hurried into the little shop, unseen
and ahead of him.
Now the animal person who kept this
little shop was very old dog. he

Tortoise-Shell SpectacIes
BY GEORGE FITCH.
Author OF "At Good Old siWRsh.'

~ORTOISE-S SHELL spectacIes are
now being worn by many men
4 which proves that the limit Of
nerve and daring in personal adorn-
ment has not yet been reached.
Tortoise-shen spectacles are circular
window panes about the size of the
glass in dark lantern. They are
bound in thick tortoise-sheu rims and
are affixed to the face by means Of
huge tortOise-sheu straps which bur-
row into the hair behind the ears.
The effect Of these glasses upon the
public is surprising. A tOrtOiSe-Shell
outfit, costing less than SIS, is often
as effective in creating an appearance
Of intense learning as four years in a
high pressure college. Many a young
American today who has barely
squeezed through the freshman year in
an institution. Of learning and dislOca-
ton has been able to acquire the other
three years instautaneously by buck
ling himself into a pair Of half acre
glasses and peering through them at
an awestruck world.
These glasses have another great
virtue They give the wearer an air
Of almost incredible dignity and fe-
rOcity. Few of US are bold enough to
lean up against a pair of these rein
forced window panes and tell the
wearer to go to thunder. We may in
tend to do so, but our training in dodg-
ing automobile searchlights has been
too painfully acquired
Equipped with these glasses the
weafer is thus enabled TO go ponder
Ously through life, awning half the pub
lie with his plate glass erudition and
soaring the other half into letting him
alone. We have no adequate data upon
the subject, but if the kaiser has not
armed his army with 40 centimeter tor
toise-shelled spectacles he has over
looked a big bet.

INTERNAL REVENUE STAMPS.


Editor FL Paso Herald:
Under the head Of communications,
there appeared in your recent issue a
letter headed, For Two Cent STAMP" -
which, were it not for the fact that
many of your readers, taking for
granted that a portion Of said letter
was a quotation from the New York
Sun, might give credence to its con-
tents and accept same as facts, would
deserve to pass unnOJiced- In the first
place, I doubt if anyone has ever ap-
piled to an internal revenue collectors
office for "A Two Cent Stamp Al
though 1 have handled many thousands
of dollars worth of these stamps since
November the 30th, no such application
has been made to me.
Leaving El Paso out Of the question
for the present, as your correspondent
seems to consider Ell PasO too small for
consideration, the exaggerated per
formance" described by him which, he
states, the taxpayer has to go through
to obtain a stamp of any kind, is a
mere Pigment of his brain. The same
paper, the sun. stated the day after the
stamps were put on sale that 10000
people mobbed the office Of the inter-
nal revenue collector of New York ap-
plying for stamps. In the same para
graph. however, it mentioned distinctly
that 95 percent of those who stood in
line and clamored for stamps were

and Tommy in his close hiding place
was very uncomfortable. He lonEad
to get up and look about him, but wait
ed patiently for Poly. A long case
filled with candies and sweets was lust
above him. The shelves that lined the
room were full Of all sorts of strange
things. Books, and dolls, and clothing
of all sorts, toys both old and new, and
housekeeping things sat on those
shelves.
All of the lost and neglected and for
gotten playthings Of human children
had helped to fill the shop. No one
knew how they got there and no one
cared. There was a real story about
every toy and article in the place, if
any one had cared to try and look it
up. Tom, growing impatient, raised
his head and peeked into the show case:
Side by side with beautiful tiny doll
was a small box marked "Handker-
chiefs" but just as he was about to
see more the door opened and he jerked
back just in time. 1t was Poly.
Il want to look at present for
some one" he said in a very loud
voice and the old cocker spaniel laid
down his book and came forward. It
would take too long a time to tell OF
all the things he looked at and refused,
but at last, just as Tommy had thought,
he bought the box Of handkerchiefs and
walked out Now" said Tommy, with
grin, as he raised up, I'll buy some
argued with the old spaniel and, final
", with two ugly red and yellow ban
dana handkerchiefs under his arm, ne
hurried out His plans were all laid.
