A CAT SHOWS HER CLAWS

AS I made the catfish remark
about the futility of Mrs. sBert's
husbands paper she laughed, not
quite naturally. THE fortunes of
war;" she answered, ARE shed
first on one side and then on the
other in political battles"
Then you think the next vic
tory will be yours?" asked
pointedly.
"Oh, mercy no." she fastened
to disclaim. Personally l know
nothing about either side of the
controversy. l never NEEDLE with
business or politics. do not
think they are meant for women.
That is why | am here today, my
dear Mrs. Waverly. / want to
show everyone in the city that l
take no part in these foolish con-
troversies."
/ wonder then. my lady, said
to myself, why you are so anxious
to make Alice's acquaintance, and
I grew a little cold as l looked
into this woman's calculating
eyes. What if she knew or sus-
pected any of Alice's story.
l was glad that Harvey was
dead, in that southern cline
where he moved to recover his
health, but already | had found,
in the case of Harry Symone, that

do you know, Margie," said
Alice, II have been looking at
your face from across the room
and its peculiar expression called
me over to you. Would it be
permissible for me to ask you
what you were thinking about?"
81 trust Mrs. Bert will forgive
me-" l answered, IF l disclose
the tenor of my thoughts. As
she has just disclaimed the
knowledge of politics in any form,
even those of the city in which
she lives, she will probably be
surprised to know that something
she said of her husbands connec-
ton with the paper that has op-
posed Mr.. Symone made me think
that perhaps the man who said

their bones, the good lives after

Mrs. Bert, as we'll Dis Alice,

Dear Miss Grey: l do not
know whether you are versed in
the art of reading character
from handwriting; but il so,
will you read the character OF
the person whose handwriting |
enclose? II Is that of a girl I
am thinking of making my wife.
Will you tell me, IL you can, II
you think l have made good
choice? PETRUCHIO.
The small, uniform handwrit-
ing indicates that the girl Is neat,
and Of an even temperament. Her
writing also expresses some artis-
tic ability. As 1 am not an expert
at reading character in this man.
ner, / cannot advise you further.
Isn't il strange, reads?
This man didn't ask me to study
his own handwriting and read HIS
character, IL 1 could.
He didn't seem to be anxious
to find out whether HE would he
a suitable husband.
He seemed to take that for
granted.
Now would you say that he was
egotistical?
And is that the angle from
which men usually figure the mat
rimOniaI problem deep down in
their hearts?

columns last week appeared a
letter from Mrs. ]. H. S. in
which she stated that war mo-
vies tended to demoralize and
intimidate the youth of our
land.
| disagree with those senti-
ments. A few may be intimi-
dated, but only a few. We
should know the war and its ter
rors in order to meet 1t as Amer
leans should, and to encourage
us to do our utmost to defeat
kaiserism.
To have these scenes enacted
before our eyes by surprise
when we get lover there" with
the boys in khaki would he far
more demoralizing. These mo-
vies help to remind us to do our
duty as they are doing lover
there"
What manner of man is he
whom the sight of our boys be-
meath the Red, White and Blue
would terrify? What manner
of man is he whom the sight Of
Old Glory sweeping on to victory
would intimidate?
Any man who would let such
scenes as these on the screen
five thousand miles from the
battle front intimidate him is
unfit to be called American.

Tell the Worst

The Times has said, and now takes occasion to re-
peat, that it is against the pocyof concealment or
curtailment of news casualties in the military es-
Enlistment of the nation.
Every mother and father friend and relative Of
the men in the trenches is entitled to know whether
their loved ones have given their lives, been wound
ed or captured by the enemy.
We do not believe in keeping the public in the
dark
1t would be the most barbarous kind of torture
to keep parents and friends of our boys in ignorance
of their fate until the slow-moving ponderous ma
chinery of government gets around to sending tele
grams to bereaved families.
Giving out merely the names of the men is far
worse than nothing.
Let the nation know the truth
The souls of the mothers of this country should
not be tortured on the rack of military necessity

would say.
was sorry to call up to Alice
the tragedy of her life, but ! had
to put her on her guard against
this woman. who, felt, had some
plan maturing in her brain
whether it was of social better
ment for herself, or some under
hand work for her huNband, l
could not tell.
Alice was very quick to under
stand, and she came back very
quickly from the unhappy
thoughts my reference to the
dead had brought her and talked
with Mrs. Bert with just that de-
gree of warmth that would make
her feel perfectly at ease.

Billy Sundays Way

A suit in the New York courts over the book,
"Great Love Stories of the Bible'' to which Billy
Sundays name is attached as author, reveals the
fact that Billy didn't write it but draws part of the
profits for permitting the use of his name Billy
doesn't allow his right hand to know what his left
hand puts into the pocketboek.

Digestive troubles ruin the COM

gassy contents poison the blood,
draw the corners of the mouth,
rob you Of sleep, give the face
that hungry, haggard, mournful
expression in the morning and you
are tired all day. 1t is not what
you eat but the fault of digestion
that hurts. Eat anything you
like and let Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets digest your food, tone
your stomach, supply your blood
with nourishment, then good
looks, a healthy appearance and
bright eyes will soon return. Get

STA Tablets at any drug store.
They are real health makers.
