thing to eat. and when Sunshine asked
her for something she replied: III
you were silly enough to give away
your share do not think am silly also.
] shall keep this for myself
Sunshine cried herself to sleep that
night more because of her sisters
unkindness than because she was hun
cry, and the next morning when she
awoke she found herself alone. Clouds
had gone away before she was awake.
Poor Sunshine walked all day and
asked at each door for work. but none
could she find. and she was afraid to
sleep under a tree alone, so she
crawled between two rocks and pulled
the bushes over her to hide herself
from the animals that lived in the
wood.
When she awoke the moon was
shining, and she heard voices, and
looking out from her hiding place, she
saw some queer-looking little crea-
lures sitting on the ground. They
were the little brown men. and they
were talking of the king who lived in
"a big castle not far away.
II could tell him what would restore
his daughters sight" said one, but
what good would it do for me to go to
the castle; l am so small that they
would not see me, apd IL they did l
do not know what would happen. No,
I am not going to take any such risk.
but I will tell you what would cure
her."
What is it?" asked one.
III the princess would get up early
in the morning and go into the woods
while the dew is still on the bushes
and get cupful OF the dew and then
find the well of fire that is on the top
of the mountain and set the dew to
boil over 1t. and when It is cool
drink It. that would cure her"
Sunshine listened, and when the
little brown men went away she re.
membered what she had heard, and
the next morning she ate some berries
and started for the castle, where the
blind princess lived.
IT want to see the king" said Sun.
shine, when the gate of the castle was
opened.
What do you want with the king?'
asked the kings servant.
THAT / cannot tell to you" replied
Sunshine; "but you must let me see
him or the little princess will always
be blind"
When the servant heard that he let
Sunshine In, for everyone loved the
little princess.
When Sunshine told the king the
cure she had learned from the little
brown men he did not have much
faith, but he wished to try everything,
and so one morning the little princess
set out with Sunshine and gathered
the dew in cup.
All day they walked, for it was q
long way to the top of the mountain,
and just AZ the sun was going down
they came to the well of FIRE.
There was q grating over the top
and on this the little blind princess
guided by Sunshine placed the cup.
and as soon as the dew boiled Sun
shine took II of to cool.

The Farm Boys Creed.

believe that the country
which God made is more beau
tiful than the city which man
made; that life out OF doors and
In touch with the earth is the
natural life OF mar. ] believe
that work with nature Is more
inspiring than work with the
most intricate machinery. / ne
lieve that the dignity OF labor
depends not on what you do but
how you do it; that opportunity
comes to a boy on the farm al
often as to the boy in the city;
that life is larger and freer and
happier on the farm than in
the town; that my success de-
pends not upon my location, but
upon myself; not upon my
dreams, but upon what actual
ly do; not upon luck, but upon
pluck. believe in working
when you work, and in playing
when you play, and in giving
and demanding square deal in
every act Of life.

or the various methods of financing
road projects the one most generally
practiced for raising a substantial fund
which will be available for immediate
expenditure is through the issuance Of
bonds. Experience. say the road spe-
cialists of the department, has shown
good roads to be sound investment,
both from a business and economic
standpoint. II properly proportioned
and managed bond issues are made for
their improvement. the roads them
selves will pay off the Indebtedness
thus created through the utility which
they afford and the saving which will
result in the cost Of hauling.
Some Reasons for Failure.
Instances are not lacking where
bond issues for highway purposes
have proved failures. These failures
are due to mismanagement rather than
to defective principle. Where coun-
ties have issued highway bonds the
proceeds of which have been spent
to construct temporary road surfaces

and maintenance. Too frequently Ill
advised locations are adopted.
Need for Highway Engineers.
Highway plans for bond issues re-
quire expert skill and professional
service. Before the amount of bonds
is determined, thorough study of
the needs Of the county should be
made and careful maps of the pro-
posed highway system should be pre-
pared The sum to be issued should
not be fixed until 1t is reasonably
known what it will accomplish. 1t is
customary for many counties to ap-
point a commission of business men
under whose Jurisdiction the bond
money is expended. In other cases
the county supervisor or county COM
missioner has the direction of expendi-
lures. The best results have always
followed where such commissions or
county boards have secured the serv-
ices of competent highway en-
gineer.
Guided by the costly experience of

LACK OF FAT IS SERIOUS
People of Germany Are Losing Weight Being Deprived of Fatty
 Substances.

LONDON Oct SO.-Germany's food situation is dealt, with at length in another iustaument Of D. Thomas Curtin's articles in the Times. based on his observations in the war-bound country. He says the lack of food is not yet serious but very uncom- tortable Until recently, he says, the situation has been exaggerated In the Allies newspapers.

 Chocolate and cocoa are abundant everywhere, said Mr. Curtin.

PASTOR STEVENS PAID A TRIBUTE
 BY HIS FRIENDS
Presbyterian Church Is Crowded by Business Men and Fraternal
 Organizations.
A FAREWELL GREETING

The First Presbyterian church was unable to accommodate all those who last evening sought admission to its services. which were in a nature of a farewell to its pastor Rev. John B. Stevens, who leaves this week for California to take up postgraduate work.
 The service was also somewhat of a surprise to Rev Stevens, for the gathering Of so many citizens was entirely informal and prompted purely by the high esteem in which Rev. Stevenst is held by men and women in every walk of life throughout this vicinity As an act of respect and honor to the pas tor, the Methodist congregation closed their house of worship and attended the Presbyterian church in a body In the congregation was also noticed over four score of business and traternal associates Of Rev Stevens who had gathered to pay honor to the services he has rendered the community and man kind generally. during the seven years pastorate in Juneau.
 On the platform with Rev. Stev- hns were seated Rev. J. T. Mcqueen, pastor of the Methodist church. Rev J II. Condit, in charge of Presbyterian Missions in Alaska, and Rev David Waggoner, pastor of the native church in this city, who each paid a high tribute to Rev Stevens as a man and fellow Chris tian worker. Rev. Stevens was mo- ticeably affected by the honor paid him and responded with a few well chosen words.
 The music rendered by the choir, under the direction of Mrs. L P. Dawes, was also of a special nature and high order.
 The citizens of Juneau paid them selves a high tribute, as well as Rev. Stevens, by the unusual dem onstration last evening, for it is too often the case when a man renders community or people mer- .torious service it goes by unrecog- nized
 A public farewell reception is to be given Rev Stevens and his family by the church on Wednesday evening.
