What Glutton the Wolverine
Did.
A wolverine is very smart,
A fact which no one can deny.
A pity it's his nimble wits
In better ways he does not try.

1t is always a pity when nimble wits
are used in wrong ways. But they
often are. 1t is so with Glutton the
Wolverine, and it is lucky thing for
the little people of the Green Meadows
and the Green Forest that he lives
only in the Great Woods of the far
north. Otherwise they would have far
more troubles than they do now, and
goodness knows they have enough as
it is.
AS Buster Bear said. Glutton is very
smart. and Busters eyes twnkled as
he prepared to listen to what Honker
the Goose had to tell him about Glut-
ton. You know Honker had stopped
just for the night in the pond of
Paddy the Beaver, deep in the Green
Forest. and was full of news from the
Far North. from which he had just
come on his way to the Sunny South
to spend the winter.
You know those trappers who are
forever trying to catch you people
who wear fur coats began Honker.
Il should say | do!' growled Buster
Bear in his deep grumbly -rumbly
voice II never could understand why
these men folks can't be content with
their own coats instead of trying to
steal ours
Honker chuckled "I've always said
thdt coat oI feathers was betlef
than coat of fur. They never try to
trap me-
No but they try to shoot you to
eat, and that is just as bad growled
Buster.
Honker stopped chuckling. That's
true" he admitted. i've been Won
dering if it is quite safe for me here"
Perfectly safe, for tonight any
way" growled Buster. Now, what was
it you saw Glutton do
Well" began Honker once more. "a
little while before l left my summer
home in the far north one of those
trapper men came to live on the shore
of the lake where ! lived and built a
queer little house there. He made it
out of logs and put a roof of bark on
it When he had finished that he took
lot of traps in his canoe all around

Will Not Cause Relaxation of
Grip on Germany, London
Paper Says.
ADDS THAT THE ANSWER
WILL BE POLITE BUT FIRM
German Press Commends the Energy
With Which President Wilson
Handles the Issue.

LO~DON. November II, 1910 pm
THE American note causes us little
concern as Englishmen," says the
Spectator, commenting on the recent
note of the United States to Great
Britain relative to interference with
American trade. Its harsh and un-
synpathetic tone will not make us re-
lax in the slightest degree the grip on
the throat of Germany which our sea
power gives us. We shall answer the
note politely and in mucn more
human spirit than that which inspired lts
words. but we shall answer 1t hrmly-
That we must do whatever the con-
sequences. but there will be no con-
sequences"

of Americans would not tolerate seeing

woods and along the brooks that fiow-
ed into the lake. He had ever and ever
so many traps, and it took him days
and days to set all of them. I could
see him when he was at work close
to the shore of the lake. but l never
could find any of the traps after he
had set them. though l went straight
over to the places where he had been
at work just as soon as he had left.
Sometimes I found the food he had left
there to tempt the little people for
whom he had set the traps. but 1 never
was very smart, was that trapper.
"Of course, 1 told everybody whom
met, but you see I sleep at night, SO
didn't see many. Every once in a

Looks to the Future.

The paper continues:
When history comes to be written
Americans of the future Will feel any
thing but pride when they remember
the official action of America during
the great war. They will note how.

neutrality on the moral issue-the hru-

called it: further how the Washington
government bore the outrages commit

sinking of the Lusitania, until the eff

the underwater menace. and again.
when in the supreme moment of Eng
lands agony they thought it had found
certain technical infringements OF their
rights they pushed their paper case.
The Spectator says the British have
not torpedoed American ships, nor
have they killed American citizens.
The British embassy has not been the
center of plots and conspiracies, yet

Note to Britain as Viewed in Cologne
What is said to be an inspired dis
patch from Berlin to the Cologne Ga
zette on the American note to Great
Britain says:
"The energy with which the Pres1-
troversy with Germany. has taken up
the settlement of the Anglo-American
question is acknowledged unreservedly
here. There could be no more con-
vincing documentary proof of the I'M
portance of American interests and the
extent of the British violations of
rights than this note.
America, it must be conceded, has
spoken thoroughly and energeticaily.
The immediate future will show how
strong is the political determination
behind these words"
ClaSSed as "1rrefutable.
BERLIN. via London, November 12.-
The Vossische Zeitung says it regards
the American note to Great Britain as
an irrefutable document from a legal
standpoint, but that everything de-
pends upon the practical things the au-
thors intend it to achieve, for they
cannot have been in doubt that they
have placed Great Britain between two
alternatives-of politely rejecting the
all the advantages which the navy
gives Great Britain in her war against
the Germans"
The Hamburg Nachrichten, comment
ing on the American note. says:
Pirates. commercial robbers. law
breakers and inelegant' eXtortionists
are pilloried before the whole world

mands are xhaustively. based on ex-
listing treaties. That is the chief

Die Post of Hamburg saws the note
