WHEN HEINIE RUNS.

When Heinie starts to run, Gee whizf
Hes faster than the rabbit is
He throws away his cartridge belt,
His derby hat of iron felt,
His iron cross, his tr,isty gun
And heads for home upon the run.
lie never stops TO greet his friends
Or ask which way the roadway bends.
He has no time to stop and chat.
And II "A woman old and fat
Gets in his way, she's promptly downed
To dodge her would be losing ground.
When Heinie feels that run he must,
He leaves behind cloud of dust
Along his trail you'll find his coat
The collar that adorned his throat,
The Iackknife in it's rusty sheath
With which he used to pick his teeth.
When Heinie gets running ht
He makes a splendid Job Of II
lie II run in circles and III squares,
And even shed the shirt he wears
For Ieinic, when he $ taking flight,
Believes IT best to travel light.
The dogs go scampcring from his way,
The chickens fec as best they may,
i he frightened pigeons take the sky
And horses turn To let him by.
The widest thing beneath the sun
Is llelnie, whe he starts To run.

MONGOLIA WAYSIDE INN
TOliye Gilbreath in Asia I


The inn Tin Mongolia) was a
typical northern inn such as soon
became familiar to us. On three
sides of the courtyard animals were
feeding in open mud stalls, as they
fed in Bethlehem nineteen hundred
years ago. On the fourth side,
mems quarters were scarcely diff
ferent from those OF the animals,
except in being closed. Our camp
beds had been put up in the innyard,
and we ate our evening meal under
matched caves. Wool caravans
had driven in and stood bulkily
blotting the dusk, pointing toward
the gateway for a start in the first
white dawn.
Chinese interiors are the finest
Rembrandts in the world, and this
innu was a particularly mellow, in
gratiating study. From the open door
of the Chinese stove streamed a
ruddy light, which threw into deep
shadow the broad k'ang where men
sat or suuatted over pipes and bowls
of tea. Our carriers had Joined the
group about the flickering candles
and in the yellow light their faces
shone out like old portraits-strong,
simple, Oriental. A saisen player
began his plaintive note, and from
the inn door poured steady babble
of voices. On every side the plain
swept menacingly iii from the
horizon, threatening to blot out the
one infinitesimal point of life daring
to violate its solitude. But still the
note of the saisen player sounded
and above the walls of the COM
pound shone the deep Oriental
stars. 1t was a vagabond's night.
Our cots had been made up in the
courtyard; consequently we opened
our eyes with the dawn. The wool
caravans had already disappeared;
we saw them, soft blurs in the half
light. descending the road toward
China which we had climbed the
evening before. We paid our inn
bill-fourteen tungtzes (about ten
cents gold) for five travellers, two
servants, three carriers, two horses.

American language and in a German
translation, Franz Sigel, son of the
Civil War general; Judge Leo Ras-

Solicitor General under President

unexceptionable sentiments of 10y

Mr.. Kahn says: To-day Ameri-
cans of German birth are called upon
to rise, together with their fellow
citizens of all races, to free not only
this country but the whole world
from the oppression of the rulers of
Germany"
This pamphlet should prove useful
in combating the subtle and insid-
