The Scin1itar
The Brides introduction.

They had been married only two
weeks and were going to spend the
evening with friends. They were to
meet friends of their friends there. 1t
was expected that there would neces-
sarily be show of dignity when the
bridegroom and the bride arrived. All
of the company were there and sitting
around looking their sweetest when the
bridegroom and the bride arrived. A
bride always makes dignity essential.
It happened that the bridegroom was
the particular friend of the host The
latter had never met the bride. She
was coming into an entirely new cir
Gle. 1t was expected when the Newly.
weds arrived that Mr.. Newlywed
would stammer and blush when he
introduced Mrs. Newlywed as his wife.
Not 80 for this boy. He sauntered In
preceded by the dignif1ed bride. Ev-
erybody in the parlor bristled up. But
It wasn't to be bristling affair at all.
Mr. Newlywed simply swept around,
caught the host by the arm and led
him before the bride.
"Dave, meet the old lady," he said.
Dignity exit Everybody laughed
and got acquainted In hurry. The
good natured introduction of the host
to the bride loosened up the strings Of
social stress The "old lady" found
herself among friends.

the Aztecs had domesticated the fowl
to quite an extent and that it was also
plentiful in its wild state
North Of the Rio Grande the bird
was equally well known, and the ad.
venturous Coronado found it among
the cliff dwelling Indians and other
tribes he met on his expedition through

Dr. Constantin Theodore Dumba, the Austro Hungarian ambassador to the United States, was required to ex- plain to Secretary Lansing why he believed it proper for him to formu- late plans to call out the Austro-Hun- garian workmen at the Bethlehem Steel and other munition plants. The ambassadors purposes were brought to the attention of this government through the publications of the letter addressed to Foreign Minister Burian of Austria Hungary, which was found by British authorities on J. F. J. Archibald American war correspond ent. Secretary Lansing received from Ambassador Dumba a telegram ask ing for an interview. MT. Lansing directed tht a reply be sent granting the request. It was concluded, from the statements attributed to the am- basador at Lenox, that he would bring a copy of the letter to present to Sec retary Lansing, in order that he may show precisely what it was he con- templated doing.
