this chat about his being strange yOl

Caller was Il very ordinary little Spar
row.
into the Animal House flew the
sparrow. The Keeper called out tC
him:
"'Wherc are you going, Sparrow?
BIT the Sparrow did not answer. He
tlcw right through the Animal House
until he reached Mr.. Hlppopotamus'
cage. Mr.. Hippopotamus was having
his bath, and he would not be inter.
rupted.
'The Sparrow was rather annoyed
that Mr.. HippopotamuS didn't want Ia
come right III of the wafer to talk to
him and he scolded from his perch or
the wire of the cage. There he sat
scolding away and the Hippopotamus
kept on ~splashing and spluttering n.
he took his bath.
"All the People standing around saw
the Sparrow perch on the cage and
they thought the Sparrow was very
brave. But they did think it a most
strange that the Sparrow wanted to
call on the HippOpOtamus, and that
the HippopOtamus had such a little
Caller so different from himself.
"Soon the Hippopotamus came up
from the water and sat IN the corner
Of his cage and the Sparrow hoped
over to a wire a little nearer.
"'Mr. Sparrow, I am sorry to be late
for your CALI said the Hippopotamus
but the truth is l wanted TO look my
best And his great long funny old
face grinned, and he showed his big
teeth.
"That's all right cheerfully chirp-
ed the Sparrow. 4 have plenty of
time today. My Family have gone
a%-shopping for bread crumbs which
they find every day In a certain back
yard. And I have nothing to do. I've
come to tell you the news Ct the world

$50 the Sparrow told Mr.. Hippopo-
Janus all about the wild scampers the
Sparrows had been having. He told
about their quarrels and how they had
made up again. And he Dragged about
their Friends and Relations, the Song
SparrOws, who had been very friendly
this year.
"When Mr.. Sparrow began to be
hoastful. the old Hippopotamus said:
"'YOu think I'm finer than my
Cousins in that cage over there?' And

"Then the Hippopotamus looked
very lonely and sad and the People
who had been watching the very big
Animal and the very small Bird talk
ing together could not understand 1t.
But they were indeed the best of
Friends. And soon Mr.. Hippopotamus
decided the only thing left for him to

and swim so he'd look his best next
time the Sparrow came to call"

SIMPLE WAY TO GET
RID OF BLACKHEADS

There is one simple, safe and sure
way that never fails to get rid Of
blackheads and that is to dissolve them.
To do this get about two ounces Of
plain powdered neroxin from any drug
store-sprinkle little on q hot. wet
sponge-rub over the blackheads quick
ly-wash the parts and you win DO
surprised how the blackheads have dis
appeared. Big blackheads, little black
heads, no matter where they are, eimp-
ly dissolve and disappear, leaving the
parts without any marks whatever.
Blackheads are simply a mixture OF
dust and dirt and secretions from the
body that form in the pores Of the skin.
Pinching and squeezing only cause ir-
ritation. make large pores and do not
get them out after they become hard.
The powdered neroxin and the water
simply dissolve the blackheads SO they
wash right out, leaving the pores FREQ
and clean and In their natural condi-
ton. Anyone troubled with these un.
slightly blemishes should certainly try
this simple method.

AkAl-SUFFRA6E DOPE"

The Woman's Anti-Suffrage Bulletin
Service is sending out reasons TO the
press why equal suffrage should be
denied Below are excerpts from the
latest "buAerin."
At law. woman without the vote
nearly always has the advantage Of
man. An Iowa jury recently awarded
woman an automobile because her
employer, she said, had promised it in
exchange for a kiss. A Texas woman
who murdered a man who wronged
her has public sentiment on her side
and no woman has ever been hanged
for murder with this excuse-yet no
man voter could offer it. A sufTragist
was fned instead of imprisoned for
smuggling because judge with south
err chivalry believed womans place is
out Of Jail. yet we hear so much about
woman's oppression.
Even the right to fight has been de-
MED poor voteless woman. 4 woman
boxer was recently ordered out Of the
ring Of a New York gymnasium be-
cause she boxed with a man More

Hasn't woman an nalienable right
TO get hurt?

That the government is OF that

this country should not hold the sack
Most Of us expected a dash into
Mexico by a cavalry regiment and the
swift punishment of Villa and his band
But this is a real expeditionary force,
carefully organized and to be trailed
by telegraph lines connected with
Washington. That seems to mean that
Funston may, like other commanders
have been. be hampered and checked
by political eNigencies. Perhaps, like
Dewey. he will cut the cables and like
Dewey deliver the goods before repairs
can be made.
At any rate. if We are to send an
army, II is evident that the march into
Mexico is considered very seriously
both at the national capital and at the
front and that we may await eventual
ltleS with concern.
