Something Lacking.

For the first tine Louis was hearing
the cherry-tree-andhatchet story. It
was very dramatically related by a
patriotic aunt, but Louis was not SO
deeply impressed as he might have
been. When the climax was reached
and George Washington said. II can
not tell lie," Louis displayed his first
glimmer of enthusiasm.
Couldn't he?" he asked. dWhat was
the matter with him Philadelphia

IMPERIALISM MUST
Be OVERTHROW
DECENTRALIZATION OF GERMANY
WILL BE INSISTED UPON BY
PRESIDENT WILSON.
Restoration Of Belgium Will Also Be
Required. = Allies to Exchange
Views Before Any OF Them Reply
Formally to Peace Note.

Westinghouse official opinion
In Washington has crystallized appar-
emily on these forecasts of the pres
ident's reply to Pope Benedict:
The reply will await conference
Of the allies but the attitude Of the
United States will in no manner be
CONSTRUCTED by determinations of the
allies as to dispositions of European
territory necessary to peace.
The sine qua non upon which the
United States will consider the cessa-
tion Of hostilities will be the lberali-
zation and characterization of Ger
many herself.
Matter Left to President.
1t is an end not regarded here as
hopelessly remote. This is only semi
official opinion. The men with whom
the president advises directly are
maintaining the most remarkable bar
rier of silence on all matters relating
to peace. But it is an opinion so uni
versal among men who are in a posi-
ton to sense the direction in which
the administration moves, that it is re-
garded as important.
The whole matter has been left to
the president alone in a most unprece-
dented manner The president is be-
lieved to have induced this attitude on
the part of the cabinet and congress
only because he has been able to as
| sure them that he has a satisfactory
solution of the peace problem.
The delay fits nicely into the presi-
dents plans as outlined. 1t viii per-
nit Of the conference of the allies told
of by Lord Robert Cecil in London.
Decentralization Real Solution.
The very simplicity Of the demands
of the United States will also give
them force which the demands of
the other allies may lack They may
be considered at first glance more diff
ticult of attainment than the compli-
Gated questions which the rest of the
entente is endeavoring to solve. But
the democratization of Germany is
said to be in the presidents opinion
the real solution of all of the many
things which the allies may quarrel
! over.
The one exception of the rule
against interfering in European poll
tics today attributed to the admins
tration is the restoration of Belgium.
This exception is made not because
of interest in Belgium herself-that
interest is sentimental and not politi-
cal or diplomatic-bu because the vio-
lation of Belgium was the most strik-
ing instance of Prussian militarism
disregard for all law.
Leaven Is Working.
The apparent gains of the Hungari-
ans and rabid militarists in the ex-
preston of German sentiment which
reached the state department were
not regarded as extremely discourage
ing. The state department has indis-
putable evidence that the heaven OF
democracy is always powerfully, If
quietly, at work in Germany. 1t will
need only smashing defeat of Ger
man arms to make Its power felt from
one end of the empire to the other

cuFFY MEETS A MAN,

And then how Cuffy Bear did roar
just one second after he had stuck his
paws into the steaming pan. You see
he was so greedy that he had never
once stopped to think that the syrup
was boiling hot.
Now. usually II you pick up any
thing hot you can drop 1t at once. But
It is not so with hot maple syrup. Cuff
fy's paws were covered with the sticky
brown stun. He rubbed them upon his
trousers. and he roared again when
he saw what he had done.
Then Cuffy had a happy thought. He
would got out and shove his paws into
a snowbank. That would surely' cool
them. So out OF the sugar-house he
dashed and across the clearing he ran.
screaming "Ough! ough! ought" at
the top of his voice, for the hot syrup
made his paws smart terribly. In his
haste Cuffy did not notice that he
was headed in the direction in which
the man had disappeared.
Now it happened that the man who
tended the sugar-house fire had gone
only to the edge Of the clearing: and
when he heard Cuffy's shneks he look
ed around in great surprise. He and
Cuffy saw each other at the same
time. And like fash Cuffy turned and
fairly flew the other way.
The man ran after him for q few
steps But he soon saw that he could
never catch Cuffy. So he stood still
and watched the little bear bob into
the woods and vanish.
Poor Cuffy's heart was beating as II
1t would burst. He was so frightened
that he forgot all about his burned

on, until at last he came in sight OF

again Cuffy began to nibble at his snow
