And they lived happy ever aft erward," so the fairy stories tell us Of the prince and princess who were married
 That cur June bride and her prince may live happy ever afterward, we can help make true if in selecting her bridal gifts we use care and give thought as to their appropriateness
 No matter what your taste or the price you wish to pay our shops have prepared a strong showing of exquisite as well as practical gifts
 It is decreed that if the modern bride has not a wedding ring of gold or platinum which it carved in or ange blossoms or set with a circle of diamonds she is painfully old fash toned.
 Jewelry is just as popular a gift as any, and has the advantage of be- ing the most personal of all gifts. There are many new styles in pins, necklaces, vanities and bracelets.
 Silver and Crystal.
 A gift that will express sentiment all through life is silver.
 One of the newest designs in flat silver is the Rheims, which carries the gothic design of the Rheims Cathedral
 The plain and hammered vegetable dishes and comports are gifts that will last a life time and are useful as we'll as ornamental.
 All-silver goblets such as kings must sip from, may be among our brides gifts, for could not different friends each give one and complete a set?
 There are lovely little silver brides baskets, just the thing for sweet peas, nasturtiums or volets. The more stately baskets are for fruit or heavier stemmed flowers.

Sweetness of Revenge.

Timothy Brown was a commercial

employers.
On one of his periodical rounds he
included in his list of calls certain
yarn merchant, Jonas Perkins by name
"a crotchety. ill-natured individual
who invariably treated Timothy with
the greatest of discourtesy, and who
on more than one occasion had torn
his card UP in his presence and
thrown it on the floor. As becomes

Timothy was undaunted and vowed TO
be reyenged.
In due course he called on his friend
again and presented his card.
"Halloa - shouted old Perkins. Civ

Barbara and Helen were spending
Christmas day thoroughly enjoying
the gifts Santa had left for them.
Barbara, the older sister, had spent
the previous summer in the country,
where her father, a doctor, had
thought it advisable to have her.
Helen showed herself partial to big
toy horse, upon whom she had contem-
plated bestowing a name, when she
turned to her sister with the remark
81 wonder is this girl horse or a boy
horse?"
With an Indifferent shrug of the
shoulders Barbara said: Il don't
know"
Helen's rejoinder came promptly :;
"You ought TO know; you were in the
country long enough last summer"
Just then the children's father came
into the room, and Barbara suggested
they "ask daddy"
To this Helen haughtily replied {:
He amt no horse doctor; he's per-
son doctor"

His First Pay in is Years.

A man who spoke with pro-
nounced Swedish accent appeared at
the income tax. Office at st. Louis and
exhibited two new leather cases which
contained $4,000 in travellers checks.
He said that he had just had his
only pay day in fifteen years and had
heard that an income tax was due. 1t
appears that during the fifteen years
he was employed on a ranch in Wash
ington under an agreement with his
employer for wages. plus board and
clothes. During the fifteen years he
"went to town" only twice a year and
drew no money, he said. because his
employer had bought everything for
him.
When last month he decided to go
10 South America to become a rancher
in his own name. his employer accom-
panied him TO town and bought the
checks for. him. He was told that no
tax was due from him.

YOUR WATCH A POWER PLANT

sufficient radium on your watch dial

As the matter stands. the innocent
looking radiuIn dial does not seem TO
possess any extraordinary amount of
concentrated energy, but this is only
apparently the case, and not actually
so: for the reason that while the
amount of activity manifested by the
radium paint on the dial is small, this

yided the zinc sulphide, with which the
radium is mixed So as to produce a
glow. held out that long. The zinc
Sulphide in most cases gives out in
about eight to ten years.
Now. if we could but find way to
make the radium release all its energy
in a few hours. instead of spreading
it over $500 years, it would not be
difficult to make motor that would
utilize this energy.

200000.000.000 horse power.

WOMEN OF WARSAW HID PETS
Cats in Plenty Produced, However,
When Red Cross Supplies Were
Per;led by Rats.

A picturesque story of the war comes
from Warsaw, where all the cats had
disappeared. One went about the city
and saw never a cat. So completely
had the cats vanished that when the
Red Cross warehouse, just outside of
Warsaw. became overrun with rats
and mice. TO the serious damage of
food and clothing stored in it, almost
every other eXpedient was thought of
and tried before it occurred to anybody
that perhaps there might be a cat or
two still left somewhere in the COM
munity. Then some official of the
warehouse mentioned to Polish
workman that if cat could be found
the animal would be a great help in
protecting the Red Cross property I;
and from here. there and everywhere
came the wives of the citizens and the
citizens themselves. each carefully
hearing 4 treasured cat AS the story
goes, there seemed TO be as many cats
offered for duty in the Red Cross
warehouse as there were rats and mice
at work in it. The emergency had
overcome the unwillngness OF the
people TO admit that they were guard
:rg their pets, and after a guardian
had been chosen for the warehouse
the cats again disappeared from War
saw.

LEFT REST OF TRIBE IN CAVE

The fundamental simplicity of the
American aborigine is Illustrated best
in the Indian myths and legends which
have come down TO us, asserted DR..
Rudolph Rieder in an address before
the Wisconsin Archaeological society.
"These myths" Doctor Rieder said,
cannot be translated into pretty
phrases, as in that case the simple
beauty of the original is lost.
There is q rather interesting leg
end concerning the origin of the Man.
dan tribe. 1t says that once the Man
dams lived underground in a cave from
which a large vine grew. One young
warrior climbed up this vine one day.
and liked the country so well that he
induced several of his tribesmen to
follow him up the vine into the world
outside. Several chiefs and warriors
did so, as well as many women, but
when a fat woman tried to climb out
of the cave, against the counsel of the
chiefs. the vine broke and the rest of
the Mandan tribe had to remain under
ground. This fable may account fol
the fact that the Mandans were a rel
atively small tribe and also for their
antipathy to fat women"
