tired as a dog is after he has chased
me-" he said. 81 guess l will take a
smoke before Mrs. Fox returns. She
does dislike the smell of my pipe so
much"
Mr.. Fox sat dow: in an old rocker
he kept just outside the door, where
he had to sit when he smoked, because
Mrs. Fox wouldn't let him smoke in
the house.
,Bennie and Pete watched him take
match from his vest pocket and
strike it on the seat Of the chair, and
then he lighted his pipe.
Mr.. Fox took two whiffs, and then
he stopped and removed the pipe from
his mouth. He looked at it and put it
in his mouth again and took another
puff. This time the tears came into
his eyes, but he puffed it again and
drew in a long Whit, and this time he
dropped the pipe and ran into the
house, holding his paws over his
mouth.
Bennie and Pete laughed so they
had to hold their paws tight over their
mouths so that Mr.. Fox would not
hear them.
1--WE had better run away while he
is in the house." said Pete "He will
come out in a minute and he might
happen to think of us and look about"
So off ran Bennie and Peter Rabbit,
but if they had waited minute they
would have seen Mr.. Fox come to the
door of his house, look very hard at
the bushes around his yard and then
listen.
"Yes, heard someone running" he
said, shaking his head. 81 wonder,
now, if l am thinking right"
Mr.. Fox picked up his pipe and
thumped it on the window sill, and
out came the queerlooking tobacco.
Yes, sir" he said, mustard seed
ground up. l was thinking right and
heard them running away. Well,
will spend the afternoon thinking some
more"
Tomorrow I will tell you what he
thought.

BEDTIMESTORIES
FOR LITTLE
FOLKS
PETE AND BENNlE RABBIT PLAY
y A TRICK.

? Pete and Bennie Rabbit were run
ming through the woods one morning,
wondering what they could do to have
some fun, when Pete said: "Oh, let's
so down to old Mr.. Fox's house and
let him tell us a funny story"
When they reached Mr.. Fox's house
he was out and so was his wife, but
on the sill of the window Bennie saw
Mr.. Foxs pipe and that made him
think of something.
"Oh, let us play a trick on Mr.. Fox"
he said to Peter.
Suppose he gets angry and chases
u.s." said Peter, who remembered that
Mr.. Fox could get very cross.
"Oh, he won't know who did it," said
Bennie.
Ibid what" asked Pete.
FIXED his pipe" said Bennie, laugh
ing so hard he had to lean against the
oSuse. .,

Seed" he explained to Pete, "and grind
them up. Then we will come back
and put little bit of tobacco OH the
top so he won't know the mustard is
there"
But if he doesn't know it is there,
what fun will there be?" asked Pete.
"Oh, he'll know it is there all right
after he lights the pipe and takes a
few puffs," said Bennie. Come along;
we will have to hurry"
Pretty soon tney came back, Bennie
carrying something in a paper and
looking all around to make sure that
no one was at home.
Then Bennie stole up to the win
dow and took the pipe. He put in the
mustard and patted it into the pipe,
and then he put a little bit of tobacco,
which he took from his fathers box,
on top, and put the pipe back on the
sill.
"Now, we must hide where we can
see the fun" said Bennie. Fright be-
hind that rock with the bushes around
it is the very place"
Pretty soon they heard some one
coming. Bennie and Peter Rabbit
peeked through the bushes. Here he
is," said Bennie, "now keep very still"
"Ha," said Mr.. Fox, stretching him

IN. Looks are nothing to go by in
the average woman.
Once upon a time l heard of a tiny.
cherubic-looking lady, with big blue
saucers Of eyes and little pink but
ton of mouth, whose hubsand used
to go upstairs and turn on the bath
water when she started giving him
her opinion on any subject so as to
drown the sound of her voice. Her
martial spirit was quite as strong as
Boadiceas or any other warrior
queen of ancient history.
"A woman's disposition" said some
body or other recently, when you
come to consider it, is striped. She's
black in parts and white in others.
Some times she's awfully good for no
reason, and other times she's awfully
naughty for lots of them.
You never quite know where to
have woman. She'll stick to a man
when he's accused of arson or murder
or few other negligible little things
like that, and run away from the man
who comes home to dinner at z every
night with the evening paper in his
pocket so that she can study the cook
ing recipes"
Woman certainly is a creature of
impulse. You never can fathom the
real reason for her conduct. What
seems the obvious motive power of
her action is the very thing that has
had least weight with her. And it is
impossible to give any formula for
solving the riddle.
After all, her inscrutability Is pre-
cisely the thing that makes her most
interesting. There isn't any charm
whatever about the expected. What
you can see at a glance seldom offers
anything in the least thrilling.
The freakishness of fashion, then, is
a species of index to the average wo-
mans characteristic outward and Wis
ible sign of those little unexpected
ways of which she is past mistress.

your love of adventure. That is what
makes you enjoy fiirting-the element
Of danger it holds.
A girl who mas the reputation of
being chronic fiirt pays the penalty
of never being taken seriously Even
though she at last meets a man whom
she considers worth while, don't you
suppose her kind friends will say to
him: "Oh, she's a fiirt. She doesn't
mean thing by it''-and she loses
her chance for happiness, while the

CITY CANNOT RID ITSELF
OF LIABILITY LAW

Holding that the injured party can
not be deprived of all recourse for
damages against a, city for an injury
caused by defective sidewalk, but
that a city ordinance relieving the city
from liability in such an action is in
vElid, Judge Kelly yesterday granted
motion for nonsuit made by the
plaintiff in the case of Mary +. White
craft against the city of Woodburn.
Judge Kelly made this ruling favor
ing the non-suit on the grounds that
the city had not been given due notice
to repair the alleged defective sidewalk
and that the plaintiff had not made
sufficient showing to indicate that no.
tice of the alleged dangerous condi-
tion of the sidewalk had been brought
to the attention of the city officials,
or, if such notice had been given, that
sufficient time to repair the same had
not elapsed.
Judge Kelly gave it as his opinion
that any ordinance relieving the city
Of liability in such an action was in.
valid because any damaged person
should have recourse against the city
and if the city was not responsible,
that action for damages against the
city officials on the grounds of negli-
gence could be maintained.
The case Of Mrs Whitecraft for dam.
ages against the city of Woodburn is
one of long standing and has been the
subject Of considerable litigation. She
testified that by reason of defective
sidewalk along the property Of c. r.
Bonney, in Woodburn, she fell and in.
iured herself so that she could not per
form ordinary household duties, and
asked for damages in the sum of So.

WOULD HANDLE AUTO
LICENSES BY COUNTIES
Marion County Delegation Introduces
Bill Making Change in Present sys-
TEN of Licensing.

The Marion county delegation today
introduced a bill into the house prOvid-
ing for the transfer Of the issuance of
motor vehicle licenses from the office
Of the secretary of state to the offices
of the county clerks of the several
counties. The bill is the draft of the
ideas that have been studied out by
County Assessor Ben +. West, of Ma
rion county, after several months of
mature consideration of a plan under
which, he believes, will not only work
"a material saving both to the taXpay-
ers and the owners of motor vehicles
but will prove vast improvement over
the operation of the present law in the
matter of convenience and facility in
the issuance Of licenses and enforce
mcnt of the law.
Ever since the motor vehicle license
law has been in operation the work of
issuing the licenses, tags, etc, for au-
tomobilcs, motorcycles chauffeurs, etc,
has been performed in the office of the
secretary of state, who purchases the
tags in bulk lots and under one con
tract and charges the respective coun-
ties up for the actual cost of the tags
All of the money for the licenses Of
motor vehicles, chauffeurs, etc, is paid
into the office of secretary Of state,
and, at the end Of the year, after de
duchng the actual cost of administer
ing the affairs of the department. clerk
hire, postage, etc, the balance Of the
fund is distributed among the several
counties to be expended solely for road
,urnOgpg
