Bed Time Tales

Mrs. Tommy Plays Hostess.

At first Tommy Tittle-Mouse was
afraid that his cousins would bother
him. He thought he would want to
run In and out the back way all the
time and that he would have to stop
each time and say "By your leave.
But Mrs. Tommy reminded him that,
las he had forgotten all about the
occurred to him, Inc as he> hadn't
used the entrance for weeks when he
could have gone out that way as easy
as not, it was hardly worth worrying
about it now.
ut will be nice to know they are
there to guard the back from dan
ger" said Mrs. Tommy s%ensibly; you
know you v can tell what might
happen"
THAT'S so," replied Tommy
thoughtfully, land now that I'm a B.
K. I ought to be willing to share a log
with my own cousin"
Indeed, yes" laughed Mrs. Tom
my; land, moreover, you ought to in
troduce him to the garden. Just think!
Maybe he doesn't even know MI. Gar
den Toad"
How Tommy did stare at that! It
seemed unbelievable that anyone
should not know kind Mr.. Garden
E"@AS "0o VI VNCly DOuys
'I'll ask slippy," said Tommy sud-
denly, and off he darted toward Slip
py's end of the log.
!, Mrs. Tommy chuckled to herself.
She knew that once Tommy was start
ed being friendly he would be busy
all ay%And with he and Slippy oc
cupted exploring, she and Mrs. Slippy
would have time to get acquainted in
quiet, housewifely fashion.
After Tommy had gone, she finished
Itidying+her house. brushing up every
scrap that didn't belong on the floor,
and then she crept down the passage
toward the other end Of the log.
Good morning, neighbour" she
whispered softly.
How Mrs. slippy did jump! She
wasn't used to having folks creep up
behind her and she was quite taken
off her guard. But Mrs. Tommy spoke
again before Mrs. Slippy had had time
to run very far away and told her not
to be frightened. TITS only I, your
cousin Mrs. Tommy Tittie-mouse, SO
don't think YOU have to run away

Jams and Jellies
For Our Soldiers

There is to be plenty Of sweets for
the brave, if a model Red Cross
kitchen just opened in Indianapolis
proves successful. Instead Of our
American boys in the trenches bring
ing back tales Of bareback, and a lack
of the things that mother used to
make. there; will be stories Of the won
derful jams, jellies and marmalades
that savored of home pantries being
enjoyed right under the fire of Ger
mar guns.
Alfred Potts, a lawyer, whose in
herman probably appreciates good
things to eat, conceived the idea of
supplying the d%elicacies that are not
included In the army fare, and the
idea being proposed to Washington
officials is being tried out, and If sue
cessful similar kitchens will be in
stituted in every large city.
A score Of Indianapolis society
women are daily making jams, jellies,
marmalades and sweets Of like nature,
In the kitchen, under the direction
OF competent teachers. The raw ma
terial is contributed as is the kitchen,
and the expense attached is met by
subscription. If the venture is sue
c%essful, it will not be long until there
will be quantities of the sweets ready
for the soldier hOvs.

FIGHTING FOR THE
WAR BABIES AND
THE WAR BRIDES

For two years after the war in En-
rope began various American manu-
facturers Of products needed by the
allies enjoyed unheard of prosperity.
Taking advantage Of the necessities
of nations fighting for life against the
most monstrous military machine In
history, these corporations charged
all the traffic would bear-and then
some.
The result was an orgy Of WALL
street speculation. The air was filled
with stories of the marvellous earn

Just when the senate hnance COM

administration announced $4,000, O00,-
600 more would be needed this year.
Singularly enough two suggestions
emanated spontaneously from Capt.
Hill, where the grave and rev.
erend senators sit and null and stew
over legislation.
One was that the extra taxes be
taken out Of the hides ofEthe consun-
ers. This did not meet with q very
enthusiastic popular response. So
the second suggestion was trotted
out--raise h extra five billion by
bond issues.
