home last night operatives found
$3.50 in internal revenue stamps

So she quickly rubbed her forehead
and the bandage fell of.
Then she sprang to the ground just
as Rina, white with anger, came gal
looping up. The bad sister saw that
the Queens eyes were unbandaged
and knew her power over Tina was
gone. So she fell at the Queens feet
and asked for pardon. But her plea
was useless, for the Queen intended to
punish her properly for her deceit and
wtckedness. She touched Rina with
her hand, and the bad sister began to
shrivel up. Little by little she grew
old and wrinkled and into her withered
hand crept a knotted cane, and on her

suttons Open Program.
The program In the lobby was open
ed with banjo and guitar number by
singing by George Hodge, with Miss
Susan Crowell at the piano. Then
came Ray Needham with series of
lightning crayon sketches, one of
which was an inverted drawing of an
elderly spinster. Miss Maude Van
Zant played during this number. Joe
Dill sang Mother Machree," Miss
Crowell plaing the accompaniment.
Kendall Wilcox gave character imper-
sonations, chief among which was an
excellent depletion of Harry Lauder.
A piano duet by Miss Crowell and
Mrs. Van Zant was followed by the
singing Of "A Little Bit Of Heaven"
by G. j. Elston.
After another number by the SUIT
tons came what was perhaps the most
unusual number on the program, Os-
valid, the hypnotist. He chose for his
subjects George Pfafflin and Buck
Green. Green was backward about
performing antics in public. but after
he had been drawn out OF the crowd
by Oswald's hypnotic eye he didn't

The program In the gymnasium was
opened with five fast boxing rounds,
with Clell Morrow and Don Gordan
as the principals. The bantam weights,
with Jerome Ball as referee. gave a
speedy demonstration, the bout being
Gordon's by shade. Cy Brown and
Arthur Stoner then went three rounds,

laughter. But, crouch and all, he
made Stoner realize that he had been
somewhere The final bout was be-
tween Harley Ashinger and Buck
Green. This was before Green had
been hypnotized, and he managed to
plant a firm one on Ashinger's jaw In
the second round that took the fight
out of his opponent.
After the youngsters had been given
their fill of candy, and the grown-ups
too, had partaken of sandwiches, cof-
fee, ice cream and cake, all went to
the gymnasium to see e. d. Hineline
demonstrate with wireless and X-ray.

the Queen. Every morning Rina would
have to sweep the red velvet carpet
that led to the jeweled throne and
every day she got madden and madden
at the fact that her sister, and not
herself, sat in state, as Queen. So
she made plan to be Queen herself.
One night, when the Queen was
sleeping, Rina crept softly into the
royal bed chamber and stole up to the
Queen. Selling her sister suddenly,
she tied a siiken scarf tightly about
the Queens eyes; then, taking Tina in
her arms, she rushed to the stables
and saddled two of the swiftest ponies
in the stalls. On one she placed the
Queen, having tied Tina's arms behind
her back, and on the other she mount
ed herself. Then she struck the ponies
with a whip and they dashed out of
the courtyard and across the wide
lawn.
Tina could feel the night wind
sweep her cheek and knew that her
sister meant to get rid of her and be
Queen herself, but there was no way
she could help herself. Suddenly she
remembered that at short distance
from the castle there was low tree
with sweet, white flowers that she
often plucked, and she was sure the

So the Queens DOny dashed over
the moor toward the wood and Rina
came galloping on behind, calling to
the pony to follow her steed. For the
wicked sister meant to throw the
Queen into the sea when they got to
the shore. But Tina's pony kept on,

CONFIRMS CONTRACT
HELD BY MUELLER

Doubt regarding the contract held
by Bridge Engineer Mueller and the
ment from the state board of accounts.
The question arose over the fact that
the county is paying Mr.. Mueller a
percent of the contract price of every
bridge built under his supervision. His
present contract calls for 31s per cent.
The state board ruled that the coun-
ty may enter into a contract Of this
kind without question. Several cases
were cited to prove this statement.
