Now, before start this story, l must
tell you about three golden apples that
were the cause of Miss Alta Ian ia losing
the race. For 1t is very often that little
things keep us from winning the big
things we're after.
Now the young man who was to run
n foot race with Miss At-a-lan-ta, as
told you In the last story, was very
much afraid he would be beaten, for she
was swift of foot and had won every
race she had ever entered. So he went
to the temple Of the Goddess Venus and
begged her TO help him.
And at once she walked into her gar
den and from tree with yellow leaves
and yellow branches plucked three beau
tiful golden apples ana gave them TO
him, at the same time telling him to let
no one know he had them, and when he
had promised. she told him how to use
them. And after that he hurried TO the
place where the race was to be held.
And, oh my. there were thousands and
thousands Of people there to see the race,
and little Puss Junior had a front seat
so be could see everything without
standing up on his tiptoes.
Well, pretty soon the race started,
and away went At-a-lhn-ta and the
young man, and before very long he was
all out of breath, so he dropped one OF
the golden apples and At-a-lan-ta
stopped 10 pick 1t up, and while she was
doing this the young man kept on as
fast as he could and so got way ahead
OF her But pretty soon she caught up
TO him. so again he dropped a golden
apple. and again this foolish girl
stopped to pick II uu.
But, Just the same as before, she
soon caught up 10 him, so he droppea
the third apple, and 81 was right IN
front OF the spot where little Puss Ju-
nior sat. Don't stop Don't stop" he
called out: but oh, dear me, Alta Ian Ia
didn't hear him. or else she wanted that
beautiful golden apple so much that she
Just couldn't help 1t. And then. just
because she stopped. the young man, NIL
out Of breath, managed to win the race
and carry or the prize.
But what happened after that shows
that At-a-lan-ta had good disposition.
for she wasn't angry in the least at be
ing beaten, but went W to the young
man and told him so: and then he
thought Il was so sweet Of her that he
asked her to be his wife and they were

a result of this campaign at least one arrest Is expected when certain ship arrives in New York.
 There are % lines under the ship ping board which have vessels calling at ports in this jurisdiction. There are on an average % vessels on hand at all times. The average cost for maintaining these Is from $500 to 30 600 each per day. Before the war an American vessel on the River Plate was a curiosity.
 S3oo,ooo for Repairs.
 "Since the shipping board has no of fees of it's own to take charge of its vessels in ports throughout the world" continued Captain Garden, "it was usually necessary to lntrust the care of Its ships 10 established nGen- cies. Many of these steamship agents had already for years been representa- lives of foreign and possibly compet- ing lines. The result has been that in many cases American vessels have been held back, while other ships were given the preference, causing the eX- nenScs Of American ships to mount up through port charges and lost time.
 "In all River Plate ports losses from this source have been very great as well aS those through OycrcharCeS for supplies, repairs and so forth. There is one case on record where an Amer ican ship was held up for months for repairs and charges totaling S3OO,O0O were piled up against her. But we are seeing to it now that shipping board vessels get Into port and get away again without unnecessary de- lay. The saving to the shipping board from this attention undoubtedly will be several hundred thousand dollars annually"

 He testified to that amazing , fact before Judge Cummings In
 defense of a suit his wife { brought for an accounting of

 , fed the family and paid for : property Improvements. Law yers say the bank deposits total
