PEACE ADVOCATES AT WORK

y CHICAGO, April 21.-The federal
secret service has within the last few
| days brought to light a gigantic Ger
man intrigue intended to disrupt the
anti-German element thru the agency
OF so-Americans. An open propa-
ganda In favor of separate peace for
Russia has been launched in Ameri-
can newspapers printed in Russian.
Advantage is being taken of the po-
litical amnesty granted by the revo-
lutionary government in Petrograd to
create a powerful peace sentiment in
Russian official circles thru the in
fluence of revolutionists and radicals,
who may now return to their old
homes without fear of the bureauc-
racy.

THE INVISIBLE CAP

Jams was an orphan, but he did
not live alone. An old magician
had adopted him and the two ex-
listed In a ruined tower near dark
lake on the edge OF the town. Jams
had a big appetite. but the magi-
clan gave him only stale bits Of
bread and some weak soup.
1t was very lonely up in the
tower all day for the boy watching
the tiny Walls with their hubbling
fluids. Down In the street below
other lads played. and in lovely
garden the daughter of the Mayor
of the city walker daily. The ma
gician said little but spent the day
reading out OF dusty book and
boiling strange-smeliing stuff in
glass jars JAMS noticed that on
his head he always wore an odd
green cap embroidered In gold
thread.

"Silly boy" replied the old man,

room now and sweep the back

stead he leaned far out of the win
dow and saw great crowd in the
streets below shouting at a huge
dragon that sailed overhead. In
it's claws it bore the limp form of
the Mayors fair daughter. Like a
vast black mountain spouting fire
and smoke from Its hideous mouth
lin disappeared In the sunset glow.
Jams was in despair. While nc

from seeing her In the garden. Fill
led with horror, he rushed into the
magician's room. The old man was
