suggestions, and the reasons are plain.
MI Root himself has changed his
mind on Article 10, which would guar
antee the boundaries Of the peace
treaty. In his first letter to chairman
Hays he argued that the article ought
20 be adopted with an amendment per-
nitting withdrawal after five years.
Against Whole Amendment.
Instead Of urging that amendment
he now insists that the whole article
be stricken out BY doing so. he asks
the Republican party to 20 on record
as opposing one Of the most funda-
mental articles OF the whole covenant
OF peace That Mr.. Root himself is
aware Of the immense responsibility
Of such a move is evidenced by his
own suggestion that # any doubt ex-
lists concerning the willingness of the
other powers to ratify the treaty and
covenant after article 10 has been
omitted, our representative at Paris
can ascertain that fact right now. He
believes the big four will assent. but
if they don't. he admits the whole
peace treaty may be affected.

also succeeded in bringing the Saw
Horse to life, Tip did not hesitate
an instant in speaking the three
cabalistic words, each accompanied
by the peculiar gesture of the hands.
1t was a grave and impressive
ceremony. As he finished the in

throughout it's huge bulk, the Gump
gave the screeching cry that is fa-

four wings began Hopping furiously
Tip managed to grasp chimney,
else he would have been blown off
the roof by the terrible breeze raised
by the wings. The Scarecrow, being
light in weight, was caught up bodi-
ly and borne through the air until
Tip luckily seized him by one leg
and held him fast. The Woggle- Bug
lay fiat upon the roof and so escaped

threw both arms around Jack Pump

The Saw-Horse toppled over upon
his back and lay with his legs wav-

And now, while all We're strug-
Cling to recover themselves. the
Thing rose slowly from the roof and
mounted into the air.
Here! Come back" cried Tip, in
frightened voice. as he clung to
the chimney with one hand and the
Scarecrow with the other. Come
