You must heed me while I tell you

They listened politely but they

or. she is growing old. She does NOT
know IS much as we do. We are young
and brave and we want wild escapes
from dangers. We will listen to her
because she is old, but we will do as
We like"
But the mother told them Of the
things she had learned through eype-
riences and adventures. and she taught
them the lessons all wolves must
know.
She thought her children were going
to be perfect and that they would not
have some of the narrow escapes she
had had. The little wolf who though
he was the wisest of the lot paid nc

danger Of the gun which the creature
called man always carried.
Il will not be shot by a gum no
said to himself. Il will not let the biz
men get me, no indeed And so b
boosted TO himself.
Little wolf, my beautiful child :
said his mother looking at him. 'Th
gun is very apt to get you. Be careful
Do not feel you know ii ALL
And the little wolf said, 81 will do
as you say, dear mother" Though he
still felt how wise he was. He felt
that his mother was nervous-toO
nervous and little bit foolish.
Now" said the mother wolf. there
are fine things for us to hunt for, but
the finest we can get in the real coun-
try not the v'ilds. What is more de-
licio;IS than anything else is nice,
juicy lamb o. even Il tender colt"
Mother Wolf smacked her lips and
showed her great strong teeth. And
her eyes looked wild and her face very
cruel.
The children began to feel that their
mouths were watering for some Of the
fine food their mother had talked
about.
"When can We go hunting?" they
asked.
Tomorrow night" said their moth
er.
"Good." they all called.
Remember" said the mother, "be
careful of guns. Keep out of danger.
Have sport, 60 hunting. but try to
come away safe, for no food is good
if we are too wounded to eat II, and
of course If we should be killed there
would never be any more hunting"
And at this the wolves looked a
trifle serious and decided they would
be careful. They did not want to be
killed. Certainly not! Life was far
too sweet for that, and the thought Of
nights and nights Of hunting and of
delicious sheep dinners was too nice.
or course Mother Gray Wolf had
warned them even more than she
needed to, for the wolves are very clev.
or and not apt to get caught. They
can destroy many sheep and colts and
calves and still they will not be
caught.
lust one more thing" said Mother
Gray Wolf, eff you are caught or
brought right up to a fight, never be
Il coward, and remember yOrr great
jaws. They are very powerful and
they will protect you. Remember.
Be careful. but be a fighter! This is
for everyone of YOU"
For she had noticed that the little
wolf who thought no gun would ever
get him had not been paying atten-
ton.
No one had ever been able to get
Mother Gray Wolf, and oh, how many
had tried, for she was very dangerous
and the farmers all dreaded the times
she came around. For she had fought
the dogs and won every battle, no trap
nor gun had ever captured her, and
still she had sheep dinner whenever
she wanted one.
The following night they went hunt
Ing. And the little wolf who had fell
he knew so much was killed. He hat
been foolish and had gone too nem
where the sound of gun had corle
from.
The others had gone to another sheer
farm where they hunted and killed
and ate the rest of the night.
As for Mother Gray Wolf she waa
more victorious than any of them and
they realized that she was a wise wolf
and very great huntress.

JUST WANTED HIS LAUNDRY
But Methods Employed by New York
Man to Get II involved Him
in Serious Trouble.

II any one had spoken to Charles
Turpin the other day at two O'Clock
II is just about ten-to-one shot that
no answer would have been forthcom-
ing. For at that hour MFR. Turpin was
being removed, feet up. from the
rathskeller laundry of Charles Fung,
West Fourteenth street, followed by
the ruin of his own laundry bundle,
the imported imprecations of Mr.. Flung
and two policemen, who were ready
at a moments notice to repeat what
had already been transacted regard
ing Mr.. Turpin's skull. says the New
York Herald. In brief, Mr.. Turpin
was as busy as witch.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Turpin has made
no statement other than that the re-
naming days of c. Fung upon this
earth are numbered, 1t Is difficult to
learn what started the typhoon. Mr..
Fung speaks number of dialects
which no one cares to listen to. and
aside from gestures his descriptive
powers seem VIGOROUSLY weak.
All that Is clear is that Mr.. Turpin.
having lostshis check, demanded his
laundry at once, and during the indeci-
sion of G. Flung, began to open bundles
and try on anonymous shirts. Mr..
Fung blew police whistle once. after
which Mr.. Turpin, is alleged to have
sent the whistle in one blow from Mr..
Fung's mouth to a point off Sandy
Hook. 1t took three policemen to con-
vince Mr.. Turpln that in matters per-
taining to laundry he is all wrong, and
In the Jefferson Market court he was
held In $500 bail as an unusually
disorderly customer.

school: for while he was the son Of
a poor farmer, she was the daughter
of a shopkeeper In the town, and,
moreover. she was the prettiest girl
In the locality. Prosperous youths from
the surrounding villages paid court to
Der; the farmer boy had never dared
to aspire to her hand.
Then the war came, and the farmer
put on his uniform, took up his rife
and went to the front. He was wound
ed three times, but each time was able
to go back. Then, at the Aisne, in
the summer of 1915, he was mutilated
by hand grenade when on a night
raiding party headed for the German
lines. He lay in No Mans Land for 20
hours, until the following night. when
his comrades crept out to the shell hole
Just In front Of the enemy barbed wire
entanglements where he lay, and car
ried him back to the French lines.
Surprised the Surgeons.
He lived through it. to the surprise
OF the surgeons who attended him.
News of his mutilation reached his
home town, and few weeks ago he
received letter from Mile. Marguerite
Lavenue, just twenty years old and
the belle of the village, telling him
that she had heard of his misfortune,
that his duty for France was finished,
but that hers had just begun, II he
would consent to marry her.
Sergeant Georges Roy, himself only
twenty-three. was stunned at the pro-
posal. He could not believe it was true
until she came to Paris, to the great
hospital located in the Grand Palais
on the Champs Elysees, and told him
she meant 1t. They were married soon
afterward in the church of st. Pierre
de Challlot, and then took honey
moon trip to the south of France.
George Kessler. the champagne man.
nfacturer, and Mrs. Valentine Webster,
widow of an English officer killed early
in the war. are carrying on relief work
Tor blinded French, Belgian and Brit
lsh soldiers. And 1t is from their fund
that Sergeant Roy and his bride went
on their honeymoon. And from the
same fund Mr.. Kessler has purchased
4 home In Normandy fer the blind,
armless soldier and his bride. They
are going down to the country In
few days.
Mr.. Kessler and Mrs. Webster are
going to continue to look after the
couple and already Roy has been grant
ed a pension of 1,500 francs year.
But there are 5000 other blinded

KNEW WEAKNESS OF WOMEN
French Police Minister Played shrewd.
iy on Weli-known Characteristic
Of the Fair Sex.

During the reign of Louis XIV of
France. the light chaise came into
fashion, and great ladies of Paris were
accustomed to drive In them about the
city. But beautiful hands are not al
ways strong ones; accidents began to
occur more and more frequently in
the streets. Consequently, says Das
Buch fur ALE, the king besought the
minister of police to do something.
since the lives of pedestrians were
constantly In danger.

En-" replied the police minister. "Your
majesty desires that these accidents
cease entirely7'
The king replied. Certainly. See
to It that they do"
The next day there appeared royal
ordnance that ordered that, in the fu-
lure. ladies' under thirty years of age
should not drive chaises through the
streets OF Paris. That seems mild
restriction; but II is said that scarce
y woman from that time on drove
her own chaise. The police minister
knew that few women would care to
advertise the fact that they were over
thirty, aud that the rest would prob
ably be too old to drive

WOMEN ARE URGED
TO TRAIN AS NURSES
Needs of Our Army and Navy
Must Be Met to Utmost
Extent.

"In the United States today is found
large proportion of the available
nursing service Of the world. Our
allies in this war are looking to US to
supplement- their nursing service. If
the women of America fail to realize
their duty at this time the American
men who have been called upon to
offer their lives for their country may
suffer accordingly"
This was statement recently made
by Miss Jane A. Delano, director Of
the American Red Cross nursing serv-
Ice.
''If this war goes on we shall be COM
PEELED to extract aid to the last frac-
ton of trained nursing material avail
able in the United States" said Miss
Delano. "The men on the fighting
fronts must be nursed back to health.
They are relying IN large measure
upon the American nurses for this
service; the nurses must not fail
them.
'The problem confronting us Is to
meet to the utmost extent, with the
trained nursing personnel available in
the United States, the needs of our
army and navy and the armies of our
allies, protecting as best we may the
welfare of our civilian population.
Several thousand American nurses
are now in France assigned to duty
In the various branches of the military
service and almost as many more are
needed for our own cantonment hos
pitfalls. II we are to continue to meet
the demands made upon us, the women
of the country must be willing to &C
cept equal sacrifices with the men. The
public, too, must be willing to sacri-
flee the service of nurses who are re-
quired for military purposes.
"For many years to come, the de-
mand for women trained for nursing.
including woman welfare work and
health service, will increase tremend-
ously, and to meet this need women
of ability and education can do no bet
ter than to take seriously the work OF
training as nurses believing that they
are not only qualifying themselves for
most important service on the compile
ton Of their course, but that even dur
ing the period of training they are
helping to solve the nursing problems
confronting u.s."
