CLEVER MADAM HEN

IF MADAM HEN had not been tempt
J. ed to leave her nest that morning
all would have been well with her.
Madam hen knew she ought To SIT
on those eggs, for they were nearly
ready to hatch but for one little run
she felt. IT would not matter; she
would not be gone long.
But Madam Hen knew not OF the
dangers that awaited her. For MT.
Fox had left his home that morning
with the intention Of bringing back
for his dinner Il nice plump hen, ana
Madam Hen was very plump.
Mr.. Fox was hiding right back of a
clump of bushes near the moist place
where the worms were, and hardly
had Madam Hen begun To scratch
when, pOunce! Mr.. Fox had her and
into his bag he put her, head first.
But when Mr.. Fox came to stream
he had to cross he sat down To rest
and then he heard something about
chickens and listened.

he asked.
Madam Hen told him then Of the

 On Economy and H. C. of L.
 The failure of the administration to retrench during the poSt-war period and the addition of thousands of swi- vel chair warmers are derided and the party pledges itself to a policy of economy and carefully planned re adjustment.

Johnscn's Sponser a Failure,

Charles s. Wheeler of San Francisco had been deputed to place Senator Johnson in nomination, and much was expected of him, because reputation for fiery eloquence had preceded him. But though his address was smooth and his voice pleasing, he scored the worst failure of the entire convention. He evoked some cheering from the gal leries by denunciation of the League of Nations, but soon after made the gross mistake of twitting the reserva- tioniSts on having been worsted by Johnson in the committee on resolu- tions. The delegates did not relish that, nor did most of the others in the hall. Then he made an unfortu- nate allusion to the campaign expendi- ture revelations, and as those had hit most of the candidates, their friends resented it with boos and misses. Mir Wheeler smilingly waited for the row to cease, and proceeded to finish an address that was fully twice as long as it should have been. His poor per formance cast wet blanket on the planned demonstration, and the Cali fornia delegates, accompanied by few others, marched rather sadly through the aisles, listlessly waving flags.
 Far better than Wheelers was the speech for Johnson by Thomas D. Schall, the blind congressman from Minneapolis, and better, also, were the

ised in order to prevent monopolieS. Re sumption of trade relations with every nation with which America is at peace was pledged. No changes were prom ised in the existing immigration laws, hut the bettering of naturalization ias9s vas pledged, and the party went on record as favoring a policy by which American women who marry foreigners shall not lose their citizen ship. The governments authority to deport and exclude undesirable aliens was upheld, but assurance was given that the rights of free speech. free press and free assembly will not be abridged.
 What They Said of Mexico.
 A large number of minor topics were handled in the platform, and then came the plank on Mexico. It dealt very severely with President Wilson's policy and pledged that the party will not recognize any Mexican govern ment unles the lives and property of Americans there are protected. Ar menia came next in the list of blanks. Deep sympathy was expressed for the Armenians. but the president was condemned for asking for authority to accept an Armenian mandate and it was added that the Republican party was unalterably against the acceptance of mandte for any country in Eu- rope or Asia.
 The men who fought in the great war were assured of the party's deep gratitude and were promised liberal legislation for the care of the dis. abled, infirm and dependents.
 Though William Jennings Bryan was present throughout the entire life of the convention with the avowed pur- pose of persuading the Republicans to insert a "dry" plank in their plat form. he failed-possibly because the timely decision of the Supreme court seemed to render unnecessary any ex- plicit declaration. The convention merely declared that all laws should be enforced, and let it go at that Women and Irish Displeased.

 Woods Feathery Ovation.
 As the governor ceased speaking storm of applause broke out, and an other storm of red and green feathers
 from the rafters all over. the house. The Wood delegates marched tiif0ag!a the aisles, led by Beveridge of Indiana and Frank Hitchcock, and the tumult continued for half an hour If Wood drops feathers, 1 suppose Johnson will drop light wines and beers from the rafters," laughed Mir Bryan, and someone said: Get your cup ready then, William"

She was Mrs. Corinne Roosevelt Robinson of New York, sister of the late Colonel Roosevelt. With much of the coon6l's fire and vim, she told why Leonard Wood should be the next president, and she told it so well that prolonged ap- plduSe rewarded her efforts
 Governor Lowden's turn came next and the honor of presenting his name was entrusted to Congressman Roden- berg of Illinois, big man with big voice who made an old-fashioned speech that hit the audience in the right way. He, too, had an excellent subject, whose cause was handicapped only by the revelations of excessive expenditures brought out by the sen ate committee at the instigation of Johnson and his friends.
 Lowden's ovation outlasted that for Wood, but was no more enthusiastic It was featured by display of ban nerS and DOrtI-aitS of the candidate and by a pretty girl in cerise sweat CT who was carried on mems shoulders at the head of the paraders. Lowden, too, had woman among his second CTS, Mrs. Fletcher Dobyns of Chicago, a clever politician and good speaker. Then Governor Morrow of Kentucky told why the Republicans of his state loved Lowden and wanted him for president.
