see. It was about as big as big
mouse, and its tail had two curls in it.
One pleasant afternoon the little boy
went out in the yard to play. He took
his sugar pig with him.

If he were mine l would eat
him up," answered the neighbor boy.
'That's what pigs are for-to eat
While they had been talking the sun
had gone behind cloud, and soon big
wet snowfakes began to fall.
If it rains we will be called in the
house.. said the neighbor boy. "Come

and climbed into an old doghouse

Hughes of Australia:

As SEATS TO G00D
Notable Test of Democ-
racy Says Premier
Borden of Canadian
Election

ottawa, Ont. Dec. 1S.-Election re-
turns received up to noon today indi-
cate that the. government will have
clear majority Of 4S seats with three
in doubt, two of which had been pre-
viously credited to the government and
one to the opposition. Their, are four
seats in which the election is deferred.
Sir Robert Borden said today the
election was "a notable test Of democ-
racy."
The Canadian people,, he said,
after more than three years Of heroic
devotion and untold sacrifice, were
called upon to say whether Canada
effort in the war should be maintain
ed. In the midst of the campaign, the
test of compulsory military service had
to be applied. No secret trial of the
courage, self sacrifice and endurance
of a democracy was ever made.
constitutional writers Of Central
Europe had predicted during the past
quarter of a century that under some
test democracy would fail. The Ca
madam democracy has given a tri-
umphant refutation to every such pre-
diCtiOn."

PECULIAR ACTIONS
.OF SPECIAL MEXICAN
ENVOY CABRERA

Washington, Dec. 1S.-Luis Cabrera.
special envoy Of the Mexican government
sent here to seek modification of restric-
tons upon American exports to Mexico,
has departed for Buenos Ayres without
troubling himself with the Formally Of
good-byes to the state department. He
goes to attend the so-called neutrality
conference in the Argentine capital.
Mr.. Cabrera sailed last Saturday and
the state department heard of it at the
time. but it did not become generally
known until today. when Ambassador
Fletcher arrived from Mexico City to par
ticipate in the conferences which the
Mexican envoy came here to hold.
The failure Of Secretary Lansing to take
the initiative in beginning the negotia-
tons is understood to have Ssended Ca
brera, who Is said to have resented the
idea of having to deal directly with the
War Trade Board which controls the ex-
port situation. The state department has
not been advised on the subject but 1t is
assumed as Mexico is sorely in need of
American corn and other products the ne
gotiations will be taken up by the embas-
sy here, assisted probably by some other
special commissioner.
Cabrera's trip to Buenos Ayres at
tracts peculiar interest just at this
time, when German propagandists are
doing their utmost to hold Argentina
in line as a neutral and to spread
antagonism against the United States
in Latin America. While his profess
sions have been most friendly, he is
generally accounted here a determin-
ed enemy of the United States, and
dangerous, one. because he is one of
the shreWdest of Carranza's advisers.
Little is known in Washington about
the proposed neutrality conference.
further than it is called by President
1rigoyen. and is to be attended by the
Mexican representatives. Some of the
few other Latin American countries
that have not entered the war or de-
clared their support Of the United
states probably will participate.
When another representative Of
Mexico resumes the export negotia-
tions the United States will have sew
eral requests of its own to make in
connection with proposals for modifl-
cation of it's export restrictions. One
OF them will be for a change in Mexi-
cos decree restricting expectation of
mine products. especially copper ores.
