WAYS OF WOMEN
BY EARL REED sILvERs.

Ray Gardner and Mildred Flint were
engaged to be married. Everybody
agreed that the match was an ideal
one; both young people We're members
of the Country club; both played ten
mis-, rode horseback and drove their
own automobiles with an abandon and
proficiency which were the envy OF
their acquaintances. And, moreover,
they had been designated by one en-
thuslastic friend of Rays as "the two
best sports in the world"
There's only one danger in the
match Mary Hughson, Mildred's espe-
clal chum, announced. Both have al
ways had everything they wanted, and
If they should ever each want some
thing different, there's bound to be
clash"
Mary's words returned to Mildred
with double force as she sat on the
Country club porch with Ray. They
were talking about the house they
were going to build. The entire fur
nishing Of the big living room had been
decided upon, all except the ornament
which should adorn the ledge at the
top of the massive stone fireplace.
I'VE ought to have something in
keeping with the plan of the ROOM"
Ray announced. "A deer's head, or a
pair Of snowshoes, or something like
that"
Mildred shook her pretty brown head
stubbornly.
Ray smiled into her challenging
eyes.
The cup for the national champion
ships would look good" he answered.
"All that I'd have to do to win it
would be to beat Norris Williams"
"Yes; and all that you have to do
to win the cup is to beat Tom Penning-
ton"
zone is just about as easy as the
other to me. Give me something easy,
Mildred"
The girl lifted her chin the fraction
Of an inch.
Anybody can do easy things" she
answered. 81 think that cup would
look just fine in our living room"
ut sure would" Ray smiled good
naturedly. Lets have a set of ten

The -Four rs of Destiny

Time and Tide and Ty and Teddy
Wait for nothing on this earth;
Each is ever poised and ready
All around the circles girth;
Time and Tide are ancient actors,
Who still move with flying feet;
But as dashing, smashing factors
Ty and Teddy have them beat.
Time and Tide and Ty and Teddy
Set their vision on the goal;
Then move forward, sure and steady
As the onward oceans roll;
Time and Tide across the ages
Have IN edge that can't be chopped,
But on Front and Sporting Pages
Ty and Teddy have them stopped.
Time and Tide and Ty and Teddy
Wait for nothing low or high;
Each one has the bludgeon rc;dy,
Backed up by the Batting Eye;
Time and Tide will be here longer
Time will nick them all ut last;
But today which two are stronger
In the nations all-star cast?
-Grantland Rice.

is contained in the food bill ard other
war legislation of this session. 81
am more disturbed" says he, about
the loss of them in the great arbitra-
ment of war" Mr. Kellogg secs no
danger of a continuance Of the war
powers of the administration after
Germany is defeated, but in order to
insure that defeat it is necessary to
change temporarily some of our in
dustrial and economic principles
Nothing but our vital interest in the
outcome of the struggle would war
rant such paternalism by the govern
ment, in the opinion of Mr.. Kellogg,
and he believes the people will quick
ly reassume their rights after the
need for their surrender has passed.
Protects Storage by Producers
The farmers of the country have
strong friend in Senator George w.
Norris of Nebraska, one of the big
men of the agricultural committee Of
the upper house of congress. Senator
Norris work appears in the commit
tee amendment to the food bill per-
mitting cooperative associations of
farmers to store the products raised
by them. Mr.. Norris holds that there
would be no possibility of saving
enough wheat, for instance, TO last
through the year unless it was stored
at the time Of harvesting, and dis
tributed to the consumer later in the
year "The healthy place for the pro-
duct to be held" Mr.. Norris believes
sis in the hands of the man who pro-
duces it." He claims that, with the
the farmers scattered over the vast
territory of the United States, it will
be practically impossible for them to
so combine as to materially affect the
price.
Remedies for Coal Situation
The soft coal situation m Indiana,
according to Senator Harry S. Now
of that state, is as bad as is frequent
ly described in other soft coal pro-
ducing states. Mr.. Now has received
a letter from the governor of Indiana,
which has also been transmitted to
the President, in which, after rociting
the conditions in the coal fields, rem
edies for the scarcity of coal arc sug-
gested, first, cooperation with the
railroads; second, fixing Of n maxi
mum price; and third, the storage Of
coal by consumers through the sum
mer. Senator New believes the sug-
gestions contained in the governors
letter are worthy Of very serious con-
sideration, and to that end has had
the communication printed in the Con-
gressional Record where it will be
available to all those having TO do
with remedial legislation.

SHE NEEDED NO POLICEMAN
Athletic Young Suffragette Gives I'M
pudent Storekeeper the Sur
prise Of His Life.

An athletic young suffragette stroll
Ing down Fifth avenue, in New York,
the other day gave the surprise of his
life to the proprietor of an antique
shop. The man was in the back of the
store, and the young woman had been
wandering about in the front of it
several moments before he became
aware that she was there. Then he
came forward storming and declared
she could not leave the store without
being searched.
"YOu come sneaking in here to take
some of my things while my back Is
turned" he cried, seizing her by the
arm.
"You impossible person! Don't you
dare to touch me-" said the young
woman cOolly. "Why don't you stay
in the front Of your store where you
belong to wait on people"
BY this time they had reached the
little flight of steps leading down into
the shop, the man still clutchlng at
the girls elbow. She looked around.
There was no policeman in sight. So
she settled matters herself. With one
vigorous push she sent the proprietor
of the antique shop sprawling down
the steps, then continued her calm
stroll up the avenue.

Wrote a. Famous Soma.

Annie M'Vicar Grant is u name that
will always be honOred by ScOtchmen,
as that of the author Of ''The Blue
Bells of Scotland" She was born in
Glasgow 162 years ago, and as child
was brought to America by her father,
On officer of the British army. Her
childhood was spent in Albany. At
thirteen she was taken back to Scot
land, and while still girl became the
wife of Rev. James Grant. Her hus-
band died, leaving her with eight chill
dren to support, and she turned to lit
erature as a means of earning living.
She was q prolific writer of both
verse and prose. Her Letters from
the Mountains" in three volumes, and
Memoirs of an American Lady" in
two volumes, were widely read, and
these and other literary works prOvid'
ed Mrs. Grant with an excellent in
come. OF all that she wrote, however,
only her famous song, "The Blue Bells
Of Scotland" has survived to the pres
cnt generation. Mrs. Grant died in
1888, at the age Of eighty-three.
