But Puss was too quick for him. for he
drew his sword. and then Of course TINT
wicked Raven was afred 10 come near

with an angry look In bis eyes, for Puss
had a temper let me tell you, and Il
made him provoked to have the Raven
try to steal his gold feather.

so frightened the wicked black bird that

up to Puss and said.
Come home with us, for we have
a nice little house With three nice rooms
and three nice beds and maybe we can
find a place for you to sleep" For It
was growing dark by this time you
know, and the woods were almost rs

flown away
SO Puss set Oft with the three bears
and by and by they came TO nice little
house, with a red chimney on the roof
and a rose vine over the front door.
"Come in, said the middllng sized

j-l)OD ALONE FAILS
TO REDUCE PRICES
I1di ;atiOn Of Decline in Pro-
vision Market is Seen.

New York, May 24.-Events in the
financial and commodity markets of
the country las week were rated by
competent authorities as the most sig
niticant and momentouS since the ter
nina ion of the world war.
Additional contradiction of credits,
prompted by the intieXible policy of
federal reserve board to further re-
duce loans, was attended, by greater
depreciation Of securities, notably the
Liberty bonds and by wave of price
cutting, which cOmprehended countless
lines of raw and fabricated materials
Foodstuffs and other provisions We're
the only staples to offer resistance to
the crusade against the high cost of
living. Even in that quarter, indica-
tons of a far-reaching decline or re-
action were apparent.
An important element in accelerat-
Ing the cut price movement was the
freight situation and car shortage.
causing further serious delay and con-
Sequent reduction of activity in many
leading branches of industry, particu
iarly steel and iron.
According to well-informed financial
interests, the supply of money now
available for purposes other than ''es-
Sential business" is smaller than at
any period in the last eighteen months,
or since the country entered upon its
era of postbellum reconstruction.
The trade establishment is world
wide is evidenced by the April export
figures. which show decrease of
$135,000.000. while imports fell away
some S30,G00000. Estimates for the
current months foreign trade indicate
further Shrinkage.
Among the more constructive devel-
opments of the week was the action
OF the interstate commerce commission
which in effect places The railroads on
their recent war footing and provides
a revolving fund for purchase of much.
