out even thanking Happy Gfggles he
hobbled away.
But the further he went into the
forest the hotter the stick grew in his
hand, until, crying in pain, he threw
it from him. But unseen hands caught
the stick and beat him black and blue.
Without the stick he couldn't walk, so
he sat down by the roadside to weep,
and Happy Giggles turned him into a
stump.
The other brother hobbled into the
forest, and after throwing away his
stick he began to weep. AS before,
Happy Giggles inquired his trouble,
and like his brothers he told the same
tale. He refused the silver stick, be-
cause he knew the gold one was far
the more valuable, and when Happy
Giggles came with the golden stick
covered with jewels he claimed it and
quickly started home.
The sunlight shining on the beautiful
gems blinded him, and he wandered
away into the forest, where Happy
Giggles turned him into an owl.
The first brother, through honesty
and truthfulness lived to happy old
age, doing all the good he could.
You can still see the stump shaped
like the figure of an old man sitting by
the roadside, and folks say that the
owl cannot bear the light of the sun,
but only comes out at night to bewail
the folly of his greediness with mourn
full cries.
In the center of the town where they
had lived there stands today statue
of the man who was loved and honored
for his honesty apd truthfulness. Each
brother had received his just reward

HAPPY GlGGLES AND THE THREE
BROTHERS,

Once upon time as Happy Giggles
wandered through the forest he saw
an old man sitting on a stone weeping.
Happy Giggles asked the cause of his
grief, and the old man told him he
had fallen alseep and that some one
had stolen his cane, without which he
couldn't walk, and he didn't know how
he would get home.
There, now" Happy Giggles cried.
Perhaps ! can find it for you
In q breath Happy Giggles was gone,
and before You could count two he was
back with silver stick under his arm.
That's not my stick" the old man
exclaimed, and he wouldn't take it.
Happy Giggles again disappeared, re-
turning with stick of gold studded
with wonderful gems, but the old man
shook his head.
That's indeed "A wonderful cane, but
it belongs to one Weather than l ever
hoped to be-" answered the old man.
With a smile Happy Giggles disap-
.peared for the third time, returning
with an old twisted stick made of wood.
This the old man patted lovingly and
thanked Happy Giggles.
Friend" exclaimed Happy Giggles,
you've proved yourself honest and
truthful. For this l give you both
sticks. Sell them and they'll bring you
money enough to live on the rest of
your days" Then Happy Giggles van
ished from the old mans sight.
The old man hohbled home, and the
gold and silver sticks followed him in o
the house. His two brothers, who were
very selfish and believed their brother
had told them a falsehood decided to
try their luck in the forest.

DANGER EXISTS
 EVERYWHERE

The following is from an eastern exchange:
 War begets hazards from the mo- mcut it is declared. Not only arc che chances of death increased for those embraced in the great mass known as nou-combatants. The thought Is suggested by the acci- dent Che other day which snuned out the lives Of two American nurses.
 Whoever it was in the long ago that said. "u the midst Of life we are in dcath." knew what he was talking about. War may or may not have been prevailing at tho time. Men may or may not have been trying Co take each others fife with weapons of combat. Tho state mcut has been true since Cain and Abel had their discord In the Car den of Eden.
 Death plays peculiar pranks with Che creatures ot the world. He spares one mans life when we cannot ac- count for Che sparing save through thc working of miracle. He takes another whose expectancy seems se- cure. He bcckons at times Co those iu Che rear even as to those in tho front ranks.
 A year ago there lived in Canada two brothers Of military age. The one courageous and dofying death enlisted in the service Of his coun- . try The other loving life and not willing to risk it in battle decided to remain at home. The warrior went Co the front and put in six furious months in the face of the enemy. He returned recently on furlough after having escaped an injuries from shot and shell, from poisonous gas and liquid fire. Hc rau the gauntlet Of the submarine and dodged the darts dropped from thc aeroplancs return home and find that his pcace-loving brother had been killed by a saw log. Sim liar instances could be mentioned by the hundreds Every newspaper carries accounts Of fatalities to those who were not willing to risk the hazards Of war; lt is enough to make fatalists of us an.

LAWYERS RUN

One Half of State Commissioner of Railroads Are Disciples

Am instructive study Of tho rail- way commissions of tho country has been made by thc Railway Gazette. Inc finds that of the 15S state com missioncrs who have charge Of the railways. exactly one-half are law ycrs. while there arc only ten rail- way men ot any rank whatever. This does not include the Interstate Com mcrcc Commission, which contains several lawyers.
 10 is hard Co believe that men of mere legal training are fitted for thc task Of running a business of which they have no practical knowl- edge whatever. They may be learn ed n the law. but they cannot be expected Co comprehend the consid- crations which enter in transporta- ton.
 10 is not because lawyers are specially fitted that they are made commissioners. but because they arc active in politics. In this country thc law Is the open door to political prcfcrmcut The young lawyer ad- vcrtiscs himself by speaking on an possible occasions. 10 is part Of his trade. The business man sticks Co his job and is seldom heard from, vet it is thc business man who pays Che freight and the railroad man who knows best what the freight should cost
 This is one Of thc reasons why managers of railways are SO insist cut that the federal government take over an regulation which is possible. They do not care to bC ordered around by lawyers and farmers. and that Is exactly what !. the present situation amounts to in !. thc long run. No other business is SO regulated.

MARRIED MEN
 NOT ALL EXEMPT
Those Having Dependents Stand Some Show of Escaping
 SeleCtive Service

" unNlNh hNNlIf 't Nff u hii' "f 't''F married men who have persons de- pendent solely upon them for sup port will gain any consideration in exemption from selcctive service. However Secretary Baker said toe day the department hopes Co cX- cmpt as many married men os pos siblc.
 An official announcement from Che war department today set at rest the general belief that every mar rlcd man would be excluded from the first levy. The announcement means that men whose wives or children have means of support win be liable to military service.
 An estimate from the census bu- rcau revealed the fact that almost ouc-hals of the men available for draft under the law were married. Any sweeping exclusion Of married men would seriously deplctc the available material.
 The announcement prepared to- day by che provost marshal generals office states:
 "The act establishing Che select i've draft authorizes thc president to exclude or discharge from the draft those in a status with respect Co persons dependent upon them for support which renders their cXclu- sion or discharge iuadvisablc. Only those whose dependents must rely solely upon them for support should claim exemption. and, of course an married men between the ages Of 2l to 30, inclusive, must register whether or not they propose to claim exemption"
 The problem Of exemption of men with dependents stands out as the most perpleSing question In the formation of exemption regulations, it was stated.
 Samuel l.. Brown, mythical young American between the ages Of 21 and 30. must be very careful how he answers the inquiries put to him on registration day.
 Uncle Samuel will check every question closely. Another war de- partment announcement today con- tained these registration hints
 Young Brown will first be asked to give his first. middle and last name and his age at his last birth day. He must then give the street number. city, county and state in which he lives. He must also be very careful Co inform himself spe- officially as to his citizenship, whether he is native born, and if not where he or his parents have been naturalizcd.
 The trade or occupation of Young Brown is another important Quos- ton and it is upon this inquiry that the government may base its cxemp- tions from draft.
 Great care must be used in an- swerlng the questions as Co depend cnts. He will be asked if he has a father mother, wife or child under 12 years solely dependent upon him for support.
 When Brown is asked if he is married or single the answer must concern itself with his present con ditlon. The question means, are you married now?
 IT the young man claims oxcmp- ton from draft he must give his reason briefly and accurately. This is not his final claim for exemption. The question is simply to give the government statistical information. Registration is one thing. exemption another.
 There is nothing formidable Co confront Samuel l.. Brown on regis tration day. Franbness and direct ness are all that are required Of him.
