An Early Morning Surprise.

Peter Rabbits like great .many
people in the world. He is impulsive.
That is. he does thing when it comes
into his head. He doesn't take time
to think it over. From the hint which
Tommy Tit the chickadee had dropped
about the swamp where the cedar
trees grow Peter had a feeling that he
might find out something about Wei
come Robin there. So here he was
that very night bound for that swamp.
The fact that he was going there at
night shows how little real thought
Peter had given tfIe matter What
could he hope to find out at.snight?
Who was there likely to be abroad at
night who would know anything about
Welcome Robin? II Tommy Tit had
found out anything about Welcome
Robin down in that swamp it had been
in the daytime. for Tommy goes to bed
with the coming Of the Black Shadows.
But Peter didn't stop to think OF
these things. He scampered across the
est, l.pperty-lipperty-1ip as fast as he
could go. then on through the Green
Forest to that part which lies in hol-
low and is protected and has in it
springs which freeze only in the cold
est weather. 1t is called a swamp. and
it is there that the cedar trees grow
Peter knew it well.
When he got there he wandered this
way and that without finding sin
gle soul to speak to. But for some
footprints in the snow it would have
been easy to believe that he was the
very first living creature to visit that
swamp. The footprints Peter recog-
nized right away. There were some
made by Reddy Fox. but they were old
and worried Peter not at all. There

Marines Fully Prepared.

The Marine Corps was fully prepared
when war was DECLARED. the general
testified, and it's expansion from II, ,00O
men of peace strength to the present
enrolment of $1,000 men was anticipat-
cd by early orders, many of which were
placed even before diplomatic relations
With Germany were severed.
He said the day after war was de-
clared he investigated the working of
the Lewis machine gun, and. as the
tests were satisfactory, he immediately
ordered sufficient OF, them to equip the
marines.
The general declared he had no dol
lar-a-year" men in the purchasing de-
partment of the corps and that all
contracts were awarded under the COM
petitive system. There have been no
complaints of shortages, he testified,
and the men are well clothed. Health
conditions are even better than in peace
time, he declared.
Gen. Barnett's assistant. Col Charles
G. Long, and Brig. Gen. Charles L. Nc
Caw1ey also were questioned as to
equipment of the Marine Corps, and
at the conclusion of the evidence the
committeeman generally expressed sat
isfaction with conditions as revealed by
the witnesses.

BARRED FROM HIGHER PAY.
Postmasters May Be Advanced, But
Salary Stays the Same.

Notwithstanding that the law pro-
hibits during the existence of the
present war any increase of any kind
or for any reason In the pay Of post
masters of the first. second and third
class, the post Offices of the second and
third class may be advanced in grade
where receipts justify. The postmaster.
however, will do his work at the same
old salary.
The post offices so advanced are af-
forded the benefits of the more liberal
allowance for operation. This takes
care of increased work reflected in
larger receipts.
The Postmaster General put the prob
lem up to the controller of the Treas
ury. Controller Warwick ruled against

Easy to Make This
Pine Cough Remedy
Thousands of families swear by
it's prompt results. lnexpen-
sive, and saves about y.


You know that pine is used in near
" all prescriptions and remedies for
coughs, The reason is that pine con-
tains several peculiar elements that
have a remarkable effect in soothing
and healing the membranes of the
throat and chest. Pine is famous for
this purpose.
Pine cough syrups are combinations
of pine and syrup. The Syrup" part
is usually plain granulated sugar
syrup. Nothing better, but why buy
it? You can easily make it yourself
in five minutes.
To make the best pine cough
remedy that money can buy, put III
ounces of Pinex GO cents WORTHY in
a pint bottle, and fill up with home-
made sugar syrup. This gives you a
full pint-more than you can buy
ready made for $3.50. 1t is pure, good
and very pleasant-children take it
eagerly.
You can feel this take hold of a
cough or cold in a way that means
business. Splendid, too, for bronchial
asthma, hoarseness, or any ordinary
throat ailment.
Pinex is highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway pine ex-
tract, and is famous the world over
for its, prompt results.
Beware of substitutes. Ask your
druggist for "z5z ounces of Pinex"
with directions, and don't accept any,
thing else. Guaranteed to give abb
solute satisfaction or money pror,1pt-
ly refunded.

be q dangerous neighbor to have about.
But these tracks also were old, and
Peter felt relieved. He ran across the

Once the terrible voice of Hooty the

he was sitting under the snow-covered

frightened to move. Presently, as he
peeped out fearfully. he saw q great
shadow sweep across the snow and
knew then that HootY had been almost
overhead. Peter sat right where he
was for q long, long time. He sat

An Adaptable Sport Frock.

The frock illustrated to day Is one
of these delightfully."- adaptable ar
rangements. 1t Is made of new ma
terial. loosely woven white wool, with
a silk stripe in blue forming an in
tegral part of the fabric and used to
great advantage in three rows around
the skirt. in the soft crushed girdle
and on the collar. This is the latest
version of the old idea Of bordered ma
terial, which used to be the last word
in elegance for summer frocks when
our mothers were young.
This frock admirably fulfills the
varied requirements Of the modern
summer apparel. 1t is loose and COM
Portable for a strenuous sport. and it
is habille enough for any other time of
day before Z o'clock. 1t really merits
the term adaptable, and so recommends
itself to a wartime world, a world in
which the women to whom amusement
was once the be-all and end-all of ex-
istence now snatch little well earned
recreation after hours of service of all
kinds.
