see" says Aunt Johanna, they
gotter give in to me. I've got all
the money"
"Ah| says |, several different
and assorted things becoming clear
on the instant. You give 'em the
gold cure?'
Right you arer' says Aunt Jo-
hanna. you can bet if anybody
with money or without ever talked
to me as | talk to them. there'd be
corpse to show for it. But they
amt got no shame, so they de-
serve every bit of it. And | just
sit up nights thinking of what I'll
do to 'em next. I'm getting so |
amt got no shame neither. Funny
thing though, that Amelia sent for
me. She must just know she can
come nothing or me. | guess there
amt any body-scars left. but on
Amelia's S, lily white soul there must
remain some memory of when l
explained to her about the poor
heather"
When we wheeled to take the
last turn around the cottonwoods
by the creek, | see a saddle horse
just peeking his nose out from be-
hind the calf-pens and | realized
Jimmy Mas hiding there, ready to
make a quick get away. So |
waved my hand kinder careless as
signal that it was all right. l
thought Aunt Johanna was looking
straight ahead, but she caught me
and asked so quick, Who you sig
naling?" that | couldn't lie.
Jimmy says |, very meek.

But you didn't think it neces-

landed in Heaven. But Amelia
Dye think she played with EN-?
Not she! She waited till lunch
time and then cried all over my nice
clean napkins and tablecloth, be-
cause she felt so sorry for the poor
heather! 'Jo,' says her mother to
me. whatever do you suppose ails
her? What am l to do with her?
"Amelia's mother allus looked
like a scarf rooster dodgin' a pup.
and she had just about the same
amount of sense.
WELL" l says, Mari, | don't
know, but you let ME have Amelia
for minute, and I'll kinder ex-
plain ID her-I can't see no just
reason for her being sorry for the
poor heather on my nice clean ia
ble-linen.' So took her out. and
explained to her about the poor
heather with one of my house
slippers-and | allus had room
enough to stand on, when | was
standing on my own feet. | ex-
planned it to her good and hard,
and she was moderate cheerful af-
ter that, when she come to my

Jim come out like a sunrise-told
stories and laughed and carried on
like a boy. And the other fellers
blossomed a bit, too. so take it by
and-large, it was a champion meal.
There was only one hitch. OF
course, Amelia didn't approve of
all this. You can't be fond of the
heather and enjoy seeing your own
folk happy at the same time, it
seems. She waited for a pause and
then said in her most cultivated
manner and most chilling tones,
what books have you been read
ing this summer, Aunt Johanna?"
The old lady dropped her knife
and fork and fastened Amelia with
her eye. Cook books, Amelia =
says she: and after that you could
have heard most anything drop.
But we didn't hear anything out of
Amelia.
Well sir, Aunt Johanna fitted in
to ranch life. She sized up the
colts and gave advice. Seems she
knew pigs and calves and all kinds
of critters-and | mean she really
did know. One COW had been all

have made medicine for Amelia
from the jump, for that very aft
ernoon, instead OF sitting around
and being company, the old lady
! shucks her fireworks makeup and
tries the commissary department,
working both hands like one. for
there come spell of things to eat,
and the sight of a bustling in that
kitchen, the like of which was
never known before; and through
the banging and the Gathering of
pans and tins you could hear Aunt
Johanna singing her one and only
song.
IT'S the ooooold shiii-vip of
Zion hally-loo-YAHT The way
she come out with that yah" at
the end made poor old Nose, Jim's
pointer dog, go a foot in the air
with his headquarters every time.
He was a nervous old devil and
that Yah was speciality with
the old lady.
And that night, my boy, we sat
down to the result. Let me dream
again! There was doughnuts, bis
cults, steak, steam-fried potatoes,
fresh bread, pie-and everything
Just the kind that mother used to
make when she was at her best.
And we, that had. starved on
Amelia's blaspheti,ies. just waved
both arms like windmills and the
expression all the way round that
table was something to really
make Amelia weep. No more pale
mush, that should ha' been took
through a tube; no more bread like
the sawed-off end of a cottonwood
log; no more biscuits that would do
for ammunition for a mountain
howitzer; Ouanitehee! Here was
food

GERMANY EXPECTED
TO pEp')D|ATE ACT
(Specill-to tie ArsIs)

Washington. - Germany probably
will repudiate the action of the cap
tain of the Prinz Eitel Friedrich in
sinking the American ship William p.
Frye, loaded with wheat consigned
from Seattle to Queenstown, and make
reparation for the loss of the vessel
and cargo, in the opinion of German
officials here.
Captain Thierichens. Of the Prinz
Eitel, stated that his only guide while
at sea and for months out of communi.
cation with his government was the
declaration of London. This would
permit the destruction of neutral
prize If carrying a cargo more than
half of which could be proved to be
contraband, provided it was impossi
bic to take the vessel to a home port
without endangering the capto: war
ship.
Since the outbreak of the war the
German government has defined its
views on shipm snts of conditional con-
traband and has argued that food.
stuffs must be proved without any
doubt TO he bound actually to a bel.
ligerent force OF an enemy before they
can be seized.

WILSON TO ENFORCE
DEMANDS ON MEXICO
(Spc cial 10 The Argus.)

Washington.-Presi Wilson has
determined that all the rival factions
In Mexico shall be compelled IL neces-
sary, not only to respect the lives and
property OF foreigners, but to insure
freedom % commercial communica-
tion between the United States and its
southern neighbor.
This policy, enunciated In the last
two notes sent to General Carranza
concerning the situation at Mexico
City, was further developed by the dis
patch of. a communication informing
the Mexican chief that unless the gun.
boat IaragoZa was recalled from its
attempted blockade of the port of Pro.
greso, the president of the United
States would be constrained to issue
Instructions to the commander of the
armored cruiser Des Moines ito pre-.
vent any interference" with American
ships going to or from that port.
The purpose of this note apparently
was achieved before It reached Vera
Cruz, for the navy department receiv.
ed word that the zaragoza had put
back to Vera Cruz "on account of the
stress of the weather" Tho opinion
of officials is that there will be no
further attempt to blockade.
