Annie vogel said she came from
Pennsylwany, but her man, the big,

Fritz Kinsman. came from near the
Spessarts. He had been in America
twelve years and still spoke but little
Of our language and that little very
poorly. Annie prided herself on talk.

could not sound a v any more thar

When the great war began. Fritz
grew stolidly vicious toward every
man who had any Entente blood In
his veins. As it became more and
moro likely that this country might
take up arms against Germany he be-
gan to mutter and glare.
Il amt very happy over FRITZ these

The submarines kept up their wal
against babies and hospital ships, and
ut last the papers announced that this
country had declared war in return,
Annie came to us in trepidation. Her
FritS had sworn in q mixture Of two
languages, that he would aid the alien
enemies Of the United States In their
campaign Of destruction. She had 10.

had taken out and the oath he had
taken, all to no avail.
"BApers and schvearin'! Vat ise

He called that same afternoon and
Annie talked long and loud. Ny study

HUSBAND TURNS THE TABLES
AND WIFE LANDS IN JAIL
Wife, if you contemplate throwing
hguratiVe stones at your hubby in
the court of domestic relations, be
sure you don't live in a glass house.
Lydia Reichstag, 1910 -Larrabee
St, cast rock or two at Husband
Richard in domestic court yesterday.
She said he beat her, got drunk and
would not support either her or their
three children.
When Mrs. Reichstag finished her
story it looked black for Richard, but
Richstag pulled up his pants legs
and won his case so completely that
Mrs. R. is due for some instructions
in spring housekeeping at the Bride
well.
There is nothing but dirt at our
house" said Reichstag.f Run a fin
ger over the table top and you'll
make a gutter in the soil Mrs.
Reichstag never works, she never
does anything but go to the movies
and sit by the front window and f1irt
with street car conductors. She sits
there making eyes by the hour, every
day.
"She won't cook for me, she won't
clean the house. The whole place is
dirty. I'm dirty.
Look at this underwear" he sud
denly exclaimed
Reichstag rolled up his trOuser
legs and exposed the legs of his I'M
derwear. They were coal black from
dirt.
The wife here changed her tune.
When she was telling her story she
insisted she loved her husband, that
she wanted him to continue to live
with her, but wanted a court order
requiring him to give her so much
per week. Now she insisted she did
not want to live with him, wanted
nothing to do with him.

Sporadic outbreaks and border

Reports to the government show

does not mean that they are prepar-

RICH MISS HEN.
~ MARY GRAHAM. BONNER

"Cock-a2doodle-do," shouted Mr.
Rooster.
"Cluck, cluck, cluck," said Miss Hen.
"Cock-a-doodledo," crowed Grand
father Red Top Rooster.
Such noise as there was in the
Barnyard and all because great many
automobiles had gone by. Mr.. Rooster
was the first to complain.
"Once," he said, ''my great-grand-
father objected to these automobiles
because he said that their honk-honk
was noticed far more than his fine
growing"
ITO be sure it. would be, too" said
Miss Hen, who was rather nervous.
poor REORGANIZATION might have
been run over and killed by one and
there is always that awful chance that
an automobile might"
"You are so nervous" said Mr..
Rooster. "But the reason my great
grandfather minded it so much was
because he said he felt it was taking
attention away from him which he
thought he deserved"
81 see," said Miss Hen. "Still can't
help noticing an automobile myself.
It's so noisy and it's more unusual
than growing"
II am not so sure about that" said
Grandfather Red Top Rooster. II real
~ believe that rooster is more of a
treat these days than an automobile.
, Think Of the numbers that go by one
after the other, day after day. And
each year there are more"
''You know" said Miss Hen, who
was really very vain and tried to put
on many airs, II thought of getting one
myself"
"You were going to get an automo-
bile?" asked Mr.. Rooster, who was the
first one able to speak. "And pray tell,
how could you have done such thing?
Who would have run it for you?
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1917-10-04

ITySiOCs
Where would you have gone? How
could you have paid for it? They say
they cost great deal Of real money"
"Ah," said Miss Hen, ''you all think I
am very foolish, but I am not. No,
indeed, I am not foolish at all. I am
very sensible. know what 1 am talk
ing about. / could have had an auto
mobile if wanted. know how to do
things. / have an excellent business
lead for a hen"
The other creatures looked at Miss
Hen in surprise. She had always been
so,fond of putting on airs, they thought
this was one too. Yet they couldn't
understand how Miss Hen could say
such things if she didn't mean some
OF them.
''YOu have asked me q great many
questions" said Miss Hen. 81 cannot
answer them all at the same time. But
I will answer each one separately"
And she cleared her throat.
First of ALL" she said, "comes the
question, how | could have done such
a thing. | would have bought the au-
tomobile with money I can earn and
earn easily too. There! The first an
swer!" Miss Hen chuckled delight
eddy.
Every creature in the barnyard was
looking at her. 1t made her feel very
important.
"The second question, who would
have run it for me. Well, ladies run
their own automobiles. Hens could
run their own. I would have had one
made my siZe-they make them all
sizes you know-and it would have Just
fitted me.
"The third question asking me
where I would have gone can easily
be answered by saying that I would
have gone about the countryside, sell
ing eggs to different farmers, wherever
[ could have made the most money.
That is the main thing with automo-
bile owners. 1t costs so much to keep
them going. They say when they stop
to mend tire here that would need
to make as much money as I could.
And there is my answer to your
folTth question. [ would have made
the'money to pay for it by selling eggs.
They go up in price all the time. ]
could have had an automobile. I am
; no longer a poor hen to be despised
and to be footed, footed at by other
folks horns. No, am a hen, a great
ana useful hen. A >money-making hen.
An egg-selling hen"
The other creatures stared at her in
wonder and admiration.
* "But why didn't you buy one?" asked
grandfather Red Top Rooster. after q
long pause.
Because" said Miss Hen, "they are
too common. I didn't want to spend
my summer doing nothing but stir.
ring up dust!'

Sign OF Local Prosperity

Hughes Bros, local agent for the
National Surety Company, were adj
viscd yesterday that they are one
of the Company's leading 200 agents
in relative amount of business pro
duced so far this year in all parts
OF the United States.
The company gives cash bonuses
to the 200 best producers among its
5000 agents.
Ten agents in our state are at
present leaders in the National
Surety Company's nationwide con-
test.
This may BE taken as a practical
proof of prosperity in our town and
state since the bond and surety bus
mess is SO closely connected with
all business lines that it is recog-
nized to be a sound index t. neral
conditions.
