around
Now, the frog, who was so hoarse
that he could scarcely make any noise
at all, had to come out of the pond TO
get close enough to the woodcutter
to make him hear. So when the wood
cutter looked around the first thing he
saw was the big old frog making the
funny "coa-a-a-k" just like frogs do
nowadays.
Then the woodcutter laughed very
loud and looked at the frog.

Detroit, July 8.-The "Bersagliere"
is to be the very last word in head
gear for the fashionable woman of
America, according to the millinery
jObbers who held a convention here
last week. While the name looks for
midable, it means nothing more
strange than the feathers of the CON-
mon barnyard rooster. Italy's jump
into the European War is responsible
for the expected popularity of the new
military creation. The "Bersaglieri" is
the name of that oval crowned medium
brimmed black hat worn by the Italian
soldiers with a large bunch of jet
black rooster feathers trailing over
the right side of the brim. The varied
hues produced as the light plays upon
it is an effect that the millinery
savants are quick to bring before the
American public. The creation will
be inexpensive.

Bedtime Stories
For Little Folks
BILLY BILLS CROAk.

IL the middle of great big wood
there was a small pond in which lived
a frog. He was very big frog and
was very proud of his voice. All night
he would keep on making a strange
tie and a cough. 1t wasn't at all like
the noise that frogs make nowadays,
because if it was there wouldn't be
any story to tell of how they hap
pened to begin to croak.
One day along came a woOdcutter
who was going to cut down the trees
in the wood to build a house with.
When he saw the little pond he
thought it would be very pleasant to
build the house on the edge of the
pond. So he started to work cutting
down the trees. Now when the old
frog saw what was going on, he got
very mad, because he wanted the pond
anu inc NOOu dlI " lllIlSClLs Out IlC
didn't know just what to do he just sat
in the middle of the pond and made
the noise that was a cross between a
whistle and a cough.
When the Woodcutter heard this
noise he could not imagine where it
came from. He looked up in the
trees, and even in the pond, but he
didn't see the old frog.
q wonder what that is?" said the
woodcutter to himself.
"Whir-r-r chem-w-w," said the frog,
just as loud as he could.
When the woodcutter heard the
noise again, and so very loud, it fright
ened him. So he decided to stop work
that day and come back when there
wasn't anything to scare him. But
when he came back the next day there
was the frog sitting in the middle of
the pond where the woodcuttel
couldn't see him.
Il will do a lot of work today" said
the woodcutter
"Whir-r-r, chem-w-w," said the frog,
just as loud as ever he could.
There is that noise again" said
the woodcutter, very much frightened.
So he took up his AK and decided to
come back the next day.
But every time he came there was
the little old frog sitting in the middle
of the pond making a noise that was
a cross between a whistle and cough
just as loud as ever he could. And
every time the woodcutter heard the
frog he became frightened and decided
to come back the next day to work.
Now. of course the frog knew that
as long as he could scare the wood
cutter he would not lose his wood and
his pond, so he decided to keep on
soaring the W0Odcutter every llne ne
came And he did, too.
Now it happened that the woodcut-
ter had been coming back for such a
long time, and the frog had been max
ing the noise that was cross between
whistle and cough just as long as
he could for such long time that he
began to lose his voice.
Then one day the woodcutter came
to the wood and started to work.
Soon he heard the noise. 1t wasn't
the noise that was cross between a
whistle and a cough at all. but was
just a kind of "croa-a-a-k," just like
frogs nowadays make. At first he did

This condition works a great dis.
