The Welsh rarebit represents an
earnest effort to find out how much
the human stomach will stand with
out rising up in open and uncon-
cealed rebellion.
The stomach is given to mankind
for the purpose Of converting food
into brain and muscle. Sometimes 1t
leans too much in the direction Of
muscle and seems to forget that a few
brains will not injure the tout en-
semble, but this is because people in
sist upon eating something which was
intended solely for the adult ostrich. If
the stomach is treated right and not
called upon to digest food which would
appall cement mixer it will perform
its work with the Smoothness and
rhythm of a street ACCORDION, and will
accompany the owner down to old age
without having. to be overhauled and
rebabited every few months.
The Welsh rarebit is composed main
ly of cheese and luck. and If either in
gredient is lacking it Is a total failure.
Some people can make q dozen rarebits
in succession and feed them to trustful
friends without causing single death.
while others do not secure the right
combination more than three times out
of five. When Welsh rarebit goes
wrong it draws down with it a whole
roomful of eXpectant guests who would
be glad to revert to the status quo.

law which prevails in this country.

Well. Billy Bunny did have Jack
Knife in his pocket, just as thought
Only wasn't sure or | would have told
you so in last nights story.
So, the first thing he did after the
big gray wolf put him in the sack and
threw it over his shoulder was to hunt
for his Jack Knife. Then he carefully
cut slit in the sack. But he didn't slip
out just then. Oh, my son! billy Bun
ny knew better than that. II he had
Mr.. Wolf would have known 1t at once.
The weight of the empty sack would
tell him that even If he didn't know how
to talk. And Billy Bunny wasn't going
to take the chance of having Mr.. Wolf
turn around and grab him just as he
reached the ground. SO Billy Bunny
Just peeked out thru the slit and waited.
BY and by Mr. Wolf sat down on q
stone to rest. He let the sack slip to
the ground very carefully. Then he took
out his pipe and filled it with tobacco.
And. after lighting it, he sat and
smoked 4 while.
Billy Bunny then very quietly slipped
out of the sack. But before he ran OH
he put a big stone in it and pinned up
the hole with three pine-needle pins.
Then he hid behind tree. And just IN
time. for Mr.. Wolf got up, put his pipe
away in his vest pocket and slung the
sack over his back.

WOOL AND WAR.

Some months ago one of the Lead
ing merchandi2ers Of this city REFER
ring to the price of wool blankets
marked at a sale figure in his store
window said Buy them now. If we
are able to get wool blanket at all
for next falls market the price will be
twice what it is now. 1t looks as tho
there was 10 be little wool and at alb
normally high prices
Another prominent merchandizer
brings in report from the wooden
mills of which he is a patron which
states that If war continues for one
year it will not be a question of price
but Of wool at any price and that if
We shall have war or preparedness for
war the army would take the wool
which is now in mills for the general
trade.
The wool clip of 1916 sold for 65
cents q pound. This report states that
the WOO. now on the backs OF sheep
has been sold for 81 or more per pound
for delivery next June.
But suppose the war should end?
Their Will be no reserve supply; the
counters Of the world will be bare; the
armies must discard their uniforms
for civilian clothing; the predicted
great commercial warfare for world
markets vii! have begun: the demand
for raw material for clothing will be
enormous.
The wooden manufacturer advises
merchants to buy literally of all wool
en- goods. Perhaps the wooden manu-
facturer IS looking after his own in
terests as a salesman and manufac
turer but he argues we'll and the his
tory Of the years OF the war cor
roborate his assertions and emphasize
his conclusions II his advice is good
for the retailer it is good for the con-
sumner. II il is true that wooden goods
are 10 double in price in the next year
the fact is as valuable 10 the con-
sumner as to the retailer.

the NON PARTISAN LAW.

The non partisan judiciary law s TO
come under the consideration Of the
assembly soon for repeal or retention.
1t is said that the law has many more
friends in the legislature than It has
been credited with and that it may be
able 10 hang on over another session
1t is one of the laws that should be
removed from the statute books The
difficulty with it IS not SO much its
non partisan feature but the opening il
affords TO the supreme bench 10 those
who never should be placed there. If
the non partisan vote came at special
election for supreme judges Il would
afford real choice. BuI the impor-
tant choice between candidates for
Ijudgeships IS confused and subordi-
mated in elections that center on
rivalries between partisan candidates.
The only responsibility involved in the
candidacy Of any person for a supreme
court judgeship is the respons ibility Of
getting enough names to a nomination
petition and conducting a campaign
which may be based on anything but
the professional and personal charac-
Ter Of the candidate. 4 candidate

on non partisan candidates IS always
small, offering opportunity for small
and unfit men with a following Of one
or another character OF PURPOSES
The non partisan judiciary law
should be repealed. Il is beyond fix
ing. Il vas born for purpose which
it fulfilled. Having accomplished it's
usefulness as a stepping stone to am
DitIon il should not reLna in in further
use for similar accomplishment.

Billy Bunny and His Friends

MY, but you've grown heavy and
hard!" cried Mr.. Wolf as the sack hit
his back. I'm afraid you're a very
tough bunny"
After a little while Billy Bunny came
out from behind the tree and started
for home. "If can only get back" he
thought, without being caught by
something or somebody shall be the
happiest little bunny in all the wide,
wide world"
And he would have got home all right
if he hadn't come across something nice
and sweet. And what do you suppose
it was? Why, 1t was nothing more than
a pail full of maple sap. 1t was stand
ing under little spout that was driven
into the maple tree to let the sap run
out.
NY, but that tastes good" said Billy
Bunny, holding his mouth open under
the spout and letting the sap drip onto
his little red tongue. II wish had

sap.
