and he was quite put out to think he
had been frightened by quiet Mrs
Bat in the first place and then that
he had found nothing interesting IN
the hollow of the sycamore tree from
which he had watched the bats come
out.
"Of course, Of course" agreed Mrs.
Willy sootI.ingly: 'and there should
have been something in that hollow.
Willy, you are right about that. Bats
must be stupid, careless creatures. The
very idea of not storing up food shows
that" Little did Mrs Willy guess
that the bats would have called her
stupid, They would have said, How
silly to lay up food. If one cannot go
and get food one ran simply sleep.

Old Fred Keister Says:


The champion hard luck story of
the season comes from Sparta, where
enc of the native citizens labored all
the spring to build himself barn,
and just as he had finished and was
standing back admiring it's beautiful
outlines, the darn thing toppled over
onto him.
They took the strongest man in
Kent county away to the state hos
pital the other day. While it is true
that he was able to lift a 500-pound
weight with ease, the poor cuss went
crazy trying to raise a family on
dollar and a half day.
They were trying one of the natives
down at Ionia not long ago on some
charge or other, when the poor 'hick"
unexpectedly made the plea that his
troubles came because he did not I'M
derstand the law. But ignorance of
the law excuses no one" said the at
torney. well, then, I pity you if you
ever get into trouble" was the quiet
rejoinder.
Taking the JOY Out of Life.
Having a next door neighbor who
owns one of those cute little woolley
dogs that snap at your shins.
Being on the calling list of twenty
five or thirty life insurance agents.
Having some kind old lady show
tintype of you when you were five
years old and wore curls.
Reading a flowery obituary of
man who had owed you $27 for an
equal number of years.
Lending your safety razor to the
man upstairs.
Going on your first automobile ride
of the year and blowing out a tire
nine miles from home
Having several relatives from out
of town drop in unexpectedly just as
you are starting for a weekend ex-
cursion.

Possibly Mr.. Bryan is right in his
suggestion that the debts being Great

heavy over the heads of the people
of the belligerent nations for no less
than 500 years. But why should he

and North Caroline, where he has ex-
tensive estates and summer and win
ter and between-seasons' homes which
must eat up goodly sum each year in

On the Spur
of the Moment
By ROY X. MOuLTON.

An Ode to PortIy Brothers.
Now is the summer of our discomfort;
We get a taste of future punishment;
We fry, We boil,
We seem fire,
And perspfre,
We who are fat.
We long to lose our all too solid flesh.
And madly yearn fer one small breeze
that's fresh
We wilt, we melt,
We reef our belt
We have fun
Out in the sun,
Wen tell you that.
The lean and lanky should no malice show
BY hooting us who dire misfortune know.
We suffer now
Enough, we VOW,
We're in no mood
For satire rude,
Far be it from.
But still, the port1y brothers should cheer
up;
They've not yet reached the real dregs Of
the cup.
It's some warm now,
But We'll allow
It's but the first
And that the worst
Is yet to come.

Mamma! Don't You
See Your Child Is
Sick, Constipated
Look at Tongue! Move Poisons from
Liver and Bowels At
Once

Mother! Your child isn't naturally
cross and peevish. See if tongue is
coated; this is "a sure sign its little
stomach, liver and bowels need a
cleansing at once.
When listless, pale, feverish, full
of cold, breath bad, throat sore, does
MT eat, sleep or act naturally, has
stomach-ache, diarrhoea, remember,
a gentle liver and bowel cleansing
should always be the first treatment
given.
Nothing equals California Syrup
Of Figs for children's ills; give a
teaspoonful, and in few hours all
the foul waste, sour bile and fer
mentiay feed which is clogged in the
bowels passes out of the system, and
you have a well and playful child
again. All children love this harm
less, delicious 1'fruit laxative" and it
never fails to effect good inside
cleansing. Directions for babies,
children of all ages and grown-ups
are plainly on the bottle.
Keep it handy in your home. A
little given today saves sick child
tomorrow, but get the genuine. Ask
your druggist for 50-cent bottle of
California Syrup of Figs" then look
and see that it is made by the Cali
'fornia Fig Syrup Co." 1871
