After the war the administration

than the woodpecker?

hickory formed?
Answers to Previous Questions.
l. Will woodpeckers make their
nests In decayed branch?
I have never known a woodpecker
to drill its nesting cavity in branch
or limb that was ready to fall. Not
that woodpeckers look the branch or
tree over with view to Its stability,
but that they will cut into tree on

family instinct.
2. Does 9 dog. have sense OF
shamee
/ do not believe even the dog to BE
capable of a sense Of guilt. What the
dog tears, and what makes him put
on his look Of guilt and shame, Is his
masters anger. A harsh word or
severe look will make him assume
the air OF a culprit whether he is one
or not, and, on the other hand, a
kind word and re-assuring smile
will transform him into happy
beast, no matter Ii the blood Of his
Victim Is fresh upon him.
8. How does the tumble bug find

Behold the tumble-bug with her
ball Of dung by the roadside; where
is she going with it, She only knows
that somewhere there is depres-
sion or a hole ia which her ball with
its eggs can rest secure, and she
keeps on tumbling about till she
finds it. or maybe digs one, or comes
to grief by. the foot Of some care

A year after the war a man went
to the war department to sell 1t more
auto trucks. With 10000 new ma
chimes going to ruin in the weather.
the quartermaster general refused to
buy. But Mr.. Baker bought seventy
five new trucks for $4,000 and later
extra parts for $4,000 more.
The administration established a
new artillery camp near Columbus,
Ga, and. as part Of the site, bought
for $4Ss,000 plantation for which
the owner had paid $4,000. 1t bought
SO much land for this site that loo
al delegation came to Washington to
protest that there wasn't enough
taxable land left in the county to
support the county government. Al
ter the war Secretary Baker told
congress he had stopped work on the
camp. When congress adjourned. he
started 1t again. When congress met
again, he said he started it by mis-
take. Congress then passed law
ending this camp. Cost of Mr.. Bak-

At a camp In France, when the
mud got deep, q walk was built by
placing side by side unopened boxes
OF magnetos. It was known as the
million dollar walk.
Secretary OF War Baker was to
make a speech at Nitro, the great
government plant in West Virginia.
To make room for the meeting, new
lumber piled ten feet high was
cleared away from an acre and a
half ground, hauled to a distance
and burned to get rid Of it.
While the democrats were spendS
inE about $500 d ton to build ships.
the British were building them for
about $135 ton. Why the differ
ence7 One among many reasons is
that there were charged UP against
shipbuilding expenses like these:
Band concerts, glee clubs, police ball
tickets, club bills Of individuals.
house dues. athletics, football tickets.
expenses to army and navy football
game, contributions to Chamber OF
Commerce, campaign for a merchant
marine, subscriptions to the Elks'
convention, subscriptions to st.
Johns church. On two ships alone
there was charged OFF for such items
as these, $1,0oo.0oo.
The administration spent $780,
600. 900 near Norfolk. Virginia. the
native state of President Wilson and
Senator Glass. the gentleman who
managed politics for the president In
the San Francisco convention. After
the war. 1t spent $40. 100000 on a new
training camp in Norfolk. The site
OF the camp was a swamp, 80 some
Of tho bottom OF the sea was pumped
up to fill In. Then the camp was
found to be so salty that It wouldn't
grow grass: and now the admins

Those are few Of the instances.
They are multiplied by hundreds in
every department Of the democratic
war administration. II those who
paid it like the system they will vote
for It's continuation.
But Is there anything In the pro-
motion and management OF the AS
ISOLATED and Midland packing plants

and to do this it laid off 1000 men.
When the production sheets for the

Not having shown q single interest

ing disclosed the name of single In
divfdual, how In the name OF common
sense can any Intelligent Individual
reach the conclusion that the interests
are banded together, to buy the presi-
dency or that millions have been con-
tributed to the campaign fund Of the
republican party with sinister mo-
tive? The flinfsy subterfuges behind
which the candidate attempts to hide
will be torn away and the exposure"
will be that he made the gravest ac-
cusation any man can make against
his countrymen on false premises and
unfounded assertions.

AS night. the bandit cloaks his face
And steals away in thwarted
malice,
God spills again His brimming bowl
or morning DER His hills and val
leys.
Like honey bees and humming birds
Who fit among their blossom
bowers,
Wise children scamper off to find
The sweet oblivion OF flowers.
So. when the sun is burning bright
And every road some slope dis
covers
That leads aloft to toll and pain.
I know the happy trail for lovers
Down thru the meadow by the stream
Wherein the purple mountain
lowers
To where the water-lilies breathe
The sweet oblivion Of flowers.
But love. is brief. the afternoon
May keep the haunted heart
aquiver
With aching memories of loss
AS time rolls backward like a river.
Then. in the gardens scented aisles
The lonely lover spends his hours
And finds at last forgetfulness--
The sweet oblivion OF flowers.
And as for me, my friends, when
death
The book OF Life and Laughter
closes,
pray you lay me gently down
Among some Fellowship OF roses
Where still my restless dust. at rest,
May drink the summers sun and
showers
Until my spirit comes to share

A number of charming dancing
dresses have the entire skirt made of
petals of roses. dark brown or black,
on self-tone tulle foundations. The
result is a dress made Of petals, but
in no way looking like a flower dress.
1t gives more the effect Of ruffled
skirt than of anything else and Is won
derfully attractive. Similar effects are
worked out In dresses of pink metal
gauze. The bodices topping these pet
aled skirts are extremely plain, some
times entirely devoid of trimming. The
fluffy appearance OF such costumes fs
made even more pronounced by volu-
mlnous scarfs OF tulle These scarfs
are also worn with the more sedate
type of evening dress, and frequently
the colors are in striking contrast to
the dress For instance, scarf of
brilliant blue may accompany a dress
of rose color.

War on the Oyster Pirates of Louisiana

DATON ROUGE.-Out of the mouth
p of the narrow bayou glides a boat.
Painted pale gray, the color of the
Louisiana marsh and of Timbalier
bay, on which she floats, the craft, long
and low, but broad of beam, without
mast or Flagstaff, is indistinguishable
1t is the hour between daylight and
dark The oyster fishermen, whose
leased beds are marked by stakes set
in the three or four foot water, have
left their work
The gray boat descends on the
staked beds. Here and there she finds
a john-boat, loaded with oysters, tied
to a stake, the surplus of the days
oyster catch by the licensed fisher
man. Her motors stop at the first
john-boat, and its contents are hur-
riedly dumped into the craft. Possibly
three or four such small boatloads re-
ward the marauder. Then out come
the long wooden-handled oyster tongs,
and the men on the gray boat work
ike tigers hauling the oysters from
their beds beneath the waters of the
quiet Timbalier.
Then suddenly, the white waves
breaking in silver cascades from her
long. sharp nose, the white pelican on
the blue field huttering from her
