 She snatched the paper he had drawn from an inner pocket. She began to read it and as she read down the page her lips went white.
 My dear" the paper read, flor many, many years we have been married and until within the last ten days there has been no rift in the lute. no dark cloud on the horizon or single discordant note in the melody of our married life. But I have changed toward you. I feel that it would not be fair for me to go on in my present state of mind without telling you.
 Your wilful neglect of me, of your duty to he. has entered my soul, and day by day the wound grows yet deeper. Li-de did I think when I clasped you close in my arms and told you that I loved you and you swore that you would live but for me and me alone, that would ever have cause to remind you of those words as I do today.

 You do the same thing to me when ever you get a chance, which isn't often,' suffered Chatterer angrily.
 Happy Jack turned his back to Chat terer and continued: He doesn't seem to mind cold weather at all if the sun shines. His noisy tongue is heard on the coldest days of winter. He is the sauciest, most impudent fellow in all the Green Forest, never so happy as when he is making trouble for others. He sauces and scolds everybody who happens along, and every time he opens his mouth he jerks his tail, He is quar- re1some. Worse than that he turns robber when the birds are nesting in the spring. He goes hunting for nests and steals the eggs. Worse still, he kills and eats the baby birds. All the
 birds hate him, and I don't blame them"
 Chatterer could contain himself. no longer. His tongue fairly flew and he jerked his tail so fast that Peter Rab- bit half expected to see 1t snap right off. He called Happy Jack names, all the bad names he could think of, and worked himself into such a rage that Nature could quiet him.
 When at last he stopped from sheer lack of breath, Old Mother Nature spoke, and her voice was very severe I'm ashamed of you, Chatterer." said

WHITE CLOSES HIS
 CAMPAIGN IN CLAY
Claims Prohibition Issue Is Sharply Drawn Which Assures His
 Election

Lineville. May 10.-(Special)-Capt Frank s. White closed his campaign for the short-term senatorship with two speeches in Clay county today. He spoke here this morning and in the afternoon at Ashland, both times to large and en- thusastic audiences.
 Captain White stated that prohibition is the only issue in this race and that the line is definitely drawn between him and former Governor O'NeaY with the prohibtionists almost unanimously sup porting him, and the liquor people ln- ing up behind Governor O'Neal. MT. Rushton and MT. Heflin, he stated, have made no definite announcement of t1er position on this issue, and for that req soE voters are taking their places in either the White or the O'Neal ranks.
 He confidently predicted his nomina- ton. asserting that with the prohibit tionst vote practically solid for him, the ex-service men, the farmers and the working men supporting him generally there could be no doubt of the result of the primary election tomorrow.

LEAVE HEADACHE
 AT DRUG STORE
Money Back While You Wait at Counter if Aspironal Does Not Relieve in Two Minutes. Absolutely Safe.


 Save half an hour or more of headache pain by taking the new Aspironal Elixir instead of the slow acting tablets that have to wait so long to be digested and absorbed Aspirona acts right now and without the slightest danger to your heart or annoyance to your stomach.

 The next time you have a headache go to your nearest drug store, hand the clerk half dollar for bottle of Aspironal and tell him to serve you two teaspoonsful in a little water. With your watch in your hand count off two minutes and call for your money back, as per manufacturers guaran- tee if you can't feel your headache fading away within the time limit.

Old Mother Nature started the morn- ing lesson just as soon as Peter Rabbit reached there. for he was the last one. Happy Jack" said she. you may tell us all you know about your cousin, Chatterer the Red Squirrel
 Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel eyed his smaller cousin with a look that was not wholly pleasant. You know they 1o not get along together at all well. "Te tegin with, he is the smallest of the Tree Squirrelss said Happy Jack. He isn't so very much bigger than Striped Chipmunk. and that means he Is not half my size. His tail is little more than two-thirds as long as his body and flat, but not very broad. Personally, I don't think it is much of a tail.'
 At once Chatterer's quick temper flared up, and he began to scold, Old Mother Nature silenced him and told Happy Jack to go on. He spends more of his time in the trees than l do and is especially fond of pine and other cone bearing trees" continued Happy Jack. He likes the deeper parts of the Gl cen Forest better than l do. though he seems to be just as much at home CT the edge of the Green Forest, espe- cially if it is near farm where he can steal corn"
 Once more Chatterer's ready tongue began to scold, but again he was told to keep still by Old Mother Nature. Happy Jack went on: "I have to admit that he is thrifty. He is very fond of the seeds of the cone-bearing trees. He cuts the cones from the trees just be- fore they are ripe. Then they ripen and open on the ground where he can IIa la. several storehouses, and lays in a sup ply of cone seeds, nuts, acorns and corn, and when he can get it.

Such delays as have occurred. it was
