laugh. (which shows he wasn't afraid,
doesn't it?
AMI then who should come in sight but
the giant himself. And he was so tall and
big that Puss Junior couldn't see the top
of his head, and neither could the Giant,
unless he looked in his wife's mirror.
Whore did you come from, kitten?"
asked the dreadful big creature in a
thunderous tone, which almost blew off
Puss Juniorsl hat.
II am Puss In Boots Junior, and you
can't frighten me!'
Rum, rum, dunn, dumI" yelled the
Giant, and the feather on our little pussy

CHAPTER XIII.

Well, 1 wouldn't have been able to tell
you what would have happened to little
Puss Junior If he had taken another COB
letful of water from the fairy's spring, as
promised you in the last story, If
hadn't asked the little fairy last night,
when the moon was shining.
And what she told me was that sec
ond glass of water from her spring 1nade
person grow Sc small that you couldn't
see him, unless you had a magnifying
glass. Now, wasn't 1t lucky that Puss
Junior didn't take another drink? Well,
1 guess it was.
"Now," said the little fairy, don't you
climb up that mountain, for on the top
lives a giant, whose name is Thunder
voice, and he'll scare you to death, and
maybe deafen you"
Never fear, my kind little fairy" an
swered our little hero. II once met the
Giant Of the Beanstalk, so why should l
fear the Giant of the Mountain" And he
bowed 30 the Fairy of the Spring and
started Off
Anc by and by he heard a dreadful
noise. The mountain shook and trem-
bled and the air rushed by like hurri-
cane, and the trees bent and the grasses
shivered and great pieces of rock tumbled
down the sides Of the mountain.
II guess old Thundervoice is talking to

Criminals Are Made, Not Born
Illinois Expert Declares Ninety Per Cent Could Be Kept
in Right Path if Reached Early

Criminals are made, not born, according to a prominent Illinois junst
who has studied the juvenile question from the bench for nine years and
who ought to know. This ii what he says:
Criminals re made and not born" he says. "Ninety per cent Of
those made could be kept in the right paths il reached early enough.
LACK of parental control or home conditions which cause the boy to
seek amusement or companionship elsewhere, almost invariably end in
trouble for the boy. He gets in bad company and the next thing he is
in court charged with petty thievery or destruction of property, the usual
juvenile misdemeanors.
Certain Kinds of moving pictures, too, have a bad effect. The glamor
of lawlessness and crime should never be seen by the growing boy, as they
tend to influence a desire for imitation.
keep your boy away from the gang spirit That is where most of
the trouble comes in. There are organized groups of boys who go around
together and get into trouble. These groups or gangs have some meeting
place in a shack or barn somewhere. This is due to the neglect of the par
ens, who should have the boys home where they can be properly supervised.
Iii S up to the parents to break up these gangs They can do it easier than
any one else.
"Few cases come into court where the boy is of good family, a regular
attendant at school and living in good surroundings. When this happens
the boy is generally a mental deficient in so manner or another"
Explaining the purpose of the juvenile court, the jurst said:
"The primary object is the welfare of the child. We try to impress
that upon the parents and to secure their cooperation. Boys are paroled
always when it is their first ofense. If brought in a second time and they
show no signs of doing better we take them from their parents and put
them where someone will see that they have proper supervision and care.
We try to keep them out of institutions as long as possible. When they are
paroed We try to go further through visiting their homes and advising
BILE. We do not want to take the children from their parents, but instead
try to keep the home intact. When it comes to a point where the parents
won't cooperate with us and there is apparently no hope of reforming the
boy in his home, W e take him away. There is nothing left then, but that,
for the boys own good"

Arabian Inventor Said to
Have Been First to Devise
AirpIane and Make Flight

Abbas Ben Farnas, an Arabian in
ventor, it Is said, was the first human
being to invent and fly an airplane. He
dice as n result of his first flight in the
year 1873 a. D., during the reign of the
Caliph Haroun al Raschid, history
records.
Abbas is supposed to have con-
ceived the idea Of ~effecting mechan-
ical flight as a means Of approaching
the heavens and aiding astronomical
observations. from historical docu-
ments still In existence in Bagdad.
With the consent and assistance of the
Callph he set to work TO construct n
machine In the likeness of a bird. with
n clockwork motor TO actuate the
wings.
In the presence OF n great multitude
Abbas actually effected n flight which
lasted several seconds. but In landing
his machine was wrecked, and the In.
ventor was hurled headlong against n
tree and killed instantly. The secret
of the construction of the first airplane
died with the inventor. The Callph nj
Raschid offered huge inducements 10
other eminent scientists To pursue the
study of aviation. but none was found
with sufficient genius 10 repeat the pio-
neer flyers exploit.

UNABLE TO IDENTIFY MUMMY
London Officials II Something Of q
Quandary as to Disposition of
"Old Jimmy"

One OF London's problems nj the
present hour Is what TO do with a
mummy that lies ut the back IF the
Mansion house in one OF the oldest
churches of that ancient city. No one
knows where ii came from. and the
~jocular element around the Mansion
house describe ii as "Old .Jimmy-a
former lord mayor of London" The
rector Is in n quandary over its dis
posal. The figure is perfectly pre-
served; eyes. hair, nose. teeth. nails
and ribs.
Inside the door OF the muinmy's box
is a glass lid. which was removed II
few days ago for the first time for
many years. The mummy was covered
with cobwebs. but was still in good
condition. 1T feels like leather said
an onlooker rs he touched odd jim
my's'' elastic ribs. The rector invites
suggestions from the public as TO what
to do with the mummy. The mystery
rs 10 its identity arises from the fact
that during the great London fire in
1866 ii was hClriedly removed from
another church and placed where IL
now lies, so as 10 escape the ravages
of the conflagration.

TIME TO BE WISE

Yes; / write verses now and then,
But blunt and flaccid is my pen,
No longer talked OF by young men
AS rather clever:
In the last quarter are my eyes,
You see II In their form and size:
Is ii not time then to be wise?
Or now or never.
Fairest that ever sprang from Evei
When Time allows the short reprieve.
Just look at me! woul you believe
Twas once a lover?
| annot clear the ive-bar gate:
But. trying first it's timber's state,
Climb stifrly up, take breath, and wait
To trundle over.
Through gallopade I cannot swing
The e~ntangling blooms of Beauty's spring:
l cannot say the tender thing,
Bet true or false,
And am beginning to opine
Those girls are only half divine
Whose waists you wicked boys entwine
In giddy waltz.
/ fear that arm above that shoulder;
l wishNhem wiser. graver. older,
Sedater. and no harm IL colder,
And painting less.

In former days when starchly mild.
Upon her high-heeled Essex smiled
The brave Queen Bess.
