Bedtime Stories
Little Mrs. Peter Cannot Be Consoled
BY Thornton w. Burgess
The aching heart finds small relief
That shuts itself against belief.

Peter Rabbit dreaded to 60 home.
My, how he did dread to 60 home! He
couldn't remember ever having dreaded
quite 80 much going back to the dear
Old Briar-patch as he did now. Not
even those times when he had stayed
away longer than he should have and
knew that little Mrs. Peter would be
waiting for him with sharp tongue
had he dreaded to 60 home as he
did this time.
You see, Peter had got to tell little
Mrs. Peter what had happened to their
willful little con. He had got to tell
he4 how Farmer Browns boy had taken
him away, and he knew just how that
would upset little Mrs. Peter. He was
upset himself, but he knew that it
would be worse for her. In the first
place she was not so we'll acquainted
with Farmer Browns boy as he was
She seldom ventured far from the dear
Old Briar-patch and knew little of the
Great World. To her it was a very
terrible place and she would trust no
one in it. So Peter dreaded to go home
and have to tell her what had become
OF their little runaway son.
But it had to be done and Peter
hoped slowly across the Green
Meadows toward the dear Old Briar-
patch. Mrs. Peter was waiting for
him and hoped out eagerly to meet
him. She saw by Peters face that he
had no good news for her.
"Oh, Peter didn't you find him n
she cried.
Peter shook his head. "No," said he.
mo. He wasn't in the old stone wall.
He had been there, but he wasn't there
when got there, and l don't know
where he is. That is, I don't know
just where he is" You see Peter
wanted to be truthful. He believes in
telling the truth at all times.
Little Mrs. Peter noticed that cor
Eection at once. What do you mean,
Peter Rabbit, by saying that you
don't know just where he is ?" she de-
manded, and looked at Peter sus-
piciously.
Exactly what I said," replied Peter,
turning his head aside so that she
couldn't see his face. II don't know
just where he u.s."
"But you do know something about
him!" cried little Mrs. Peter. "xou

The bus raced down the street q
short distance and came to stop at
the curb. The crowd that swarmed
around the bus found that it was driv-
the driver, Eugene Bloom, with q can
of gasoline in his hand, came running
toward the crowd gathered around the
dead man. He declared that he had
left his bus standing at the curb while
he went for gasoline and that some
small boys had released the brakes,
causing the bus to start. He was ar
rested and taken to the Clinton Street
police station, where he was held on a
technical charge of homicide.

1913 Killed by Autos
Here in Sevea Months
DE-. Copeland Informs Hugo
That Many Claaufeurs Suffer
From Poor Sight or HEARING


During the first seven months of 1920
1893 persons were killed by automobiles
in this city, according to figures made
public yesterday by Health Commits
sioner Copeland. In Letter to secre-
that IN addition to other requirements
license be compelled to drive a car to
give evidence of having good eyesight
and good hearing.
DR.. Copeland said that while he was
member of the appeal board during
the draft he learned that many chauf
3eurs licensed in this city had defective
eyesight. He declared that he met a.
number of chauffeurs who could not see
a letter four inches high at a distance
greater than FIVE feet He further
stated that number of chauffeurs he
examined were incapable of hearing a
gunshot at a distance greater than 100
feet.
Commissioner Copeland's letter ia
Secretary Hugo reads, in part:
"In the efforts of this department to
control drug addiction we found many
persons thus afflicted who are drivers
Of motor vehicles. Out Of 7,46A indi-
viduals registered as self-confesse ed
drug addicts 534 were listed as drivers
or chauffeurs.' During certain periods
OF each day every such person would
be menace to society"
During 1919 767 persons lost their
lives In this city in automobile acct
dents. The victims included 579 males
and 1873 females. OF the 1913 deaths
this year, 287 were males and III fe.
males. In 1918 there were SIT deaths.

Peter Rabbit. He-he-isn't dead, is
he?"
"No! Oh no! He is perfectly well,n
Peter fastened to tell her.
How do YOU know he is ?" demanded
little Mrs. Peter.
There was nothing for Peter to do
put tell her all about how Farmer
Browns boy had caught that runaway
little rabbit and taken him away. He
pretended that he himself was not in
the least worried, but little Mrs, Peter
would not be comforted. She knew
that that they never again would see their
little son. At least that is what she
said. None of those two-leeped
creatures could be trusted and Farmer
crowns boy was just like the others.
In vain Peter tried to comfort her
re reminded her Of all the nice things
Farmer Browns boy had brought them
and how he never hunted them anv
more. He told her of all the kindly
acts toward their neighbors on the
Green Meadows which Farmer Browns
noy, had done. 1t was useless. Such
little faith in him as she had had was
wholly lost. VOC
But Peter tried to make her see that
it would have been much worse had
ne been their only child. There were
still five left and they needed her care
and watchfulness that no harm might
come to them. But the FIVE little ones
left couldn't and didn't make up for
the one little ono lost. So little MRS.
Peter grieved and grieved, and with
all her heart she hated Farmer Browns
boy.

Sawdust Is Converted
Into Food for Cattle
Chemists Say Cows Give More
Milk and Gain Weight
ON New Ration
Special Dispatch to The Trtbun

Special Dispatch to The Tribune
CHICAGO, Sept. 9.-When the dairy
farmer of the future needs feed for
his cows he may get fresh supply by
going out in his wood lot and reducing
o few stumps to sawdust.
BY chemical treatment sawdust may
be converted into a nourishing cattle
food. This fact was brought out to-day
at the sectional meeting of Industrial
and Engineering Chemists, American
Chemical Society, at the University Of
Chicago.
The process Of preparing such animal
food was described by E. C. Sherrard
and G. w. Blanco. White sawdust,
finely ground, is treated with diluted
sulphuric acid under steam pressure.
This breaks up the fiber and extracts
the sugar. The acid is neutralized by
adding lime. The liquid thus obtained.
when boiled down, is rich in sugar, and
when mixed with the fiber produces a
moist feed containing about is per cent
of water, in which form it is fed to
dairy cows.
At the Forest Products Laboratory,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, Madison. Wis, experiments are
said to have proved that cows thrived
on this sawdust ration, and not onlv
gave. more milk but increased in
weight.

At this point the electric current cut

Reds Try to Kill
Minister, Wife,

Angry at Anti Bolshevik
Sermons, Radicals Hurl
Brick Through Church
Window During Service
Turn On Gas i'm His Home
Rev. John e. Lillback, of
Brooklyn, Returns i'm
Time to Save His FAMILY

Within the last eight weeks persons
who resented his attacks on Bolshevik
doctrines have tried to kill the Rev.
John e. Lillback, pastor Of the Finnish
congregational Church, in the Sunset
Park section OF Brooklyn, and wipe out
his family.
Two months ago the Rev. Mr.. Lill-
back was exhorting the congregation
of the Finnish Congregational Church,
at Mariners Harbor, S. l., to beware
OF the Red contagion. In the midst of
his sermon a brick came through a.
window, missing his head by an inch
and crashing against the wall.
Gas Turned On i'm Home
At the conclusion of services in his
brooklyn church last Sunday evening
Mr.. Lillback started for his home, 1911
Forty-eighth Street. Arriving there
neighbors told him that an hour before
an awning fire had endangered his
house. Entering the pastor smelled
gas, and upon investigation found four
Jets in the hallway, living room and
dining room open.
The minister rushed into the rooms
where slept seven of his eleven chill
dren and threw open the doors and
windows. Little of the escaping gas had
reached the children, but the pastor
says they would have been asphyxi
ated had he not arrived. Mrs. ILL
back and four of the children were
calling on friends in the vicinity at
the time.
During the seven years Mr.. Lillback
has been pastor of the Brooklyn
church, he has received many threaten
ing letters from persons who were dis
satisfied with his open denunciation
of lawless radicalsm and agitators.
He has disregarded them all, con-
tinuing to preach the gospel as he be-
lleves men should preach it.
II have challenged the Red doctrine s
as they are challenged in Revelation; "
said the pastor. "People WHO have
heard me preach we'll know that"I have
no sympathy for Bolshevism or it's un-
Christian methods. l have always ad-
vocated strongly a conservative, God
fearing humanity and loyalty to this
our country"
Lives in Foreign District
Mr.. Lillback denies that members
ct his congregation are responsible
for the attacks. The district where he
lives is heavily populated with foreign
