Peter Tells Spooky the
Screech Owl All About It.
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS

/
On. purpose Of your tongue. you'll find.
Is to relieve 4 troubled mind.
| Peter Rabbit.
Somehow. when you have some
| thing on you mind. something you
cannot understand, or something that
| troubles you. or something that you
feel you must believe. yet somehow
| cannot believe. it is relief to just
tell some one else about it. even
you or to understand any better than
you do.
| After Peter Rabbit popped out of
Jimmy Skunk's house in the far cor
ner of the Old Orchard in such a hurry
he knew that the wisest thing for
him to do would be to go home to the
dear Old Briar Patch. But he didn't
so. No, sir, he didn't go. He didn't
! even start. Somehow he couldn't
| leave the far corner of the Old
| Orchard.
Peters curiosity had been quite sat-
! isfied for the time being when he had
discovered that Jimmy Skunk. or Mrs
Skunk. or whoever it was down there
| IN that house. was not such a sound
sleeper as Johnny Chuck. His one
house as fast as ever he could. and
he had done just that thing. When
he was two or three good jumps away
from the doorstep he had turned and
looked back. No one had followed
him. There wasn't sign of anybody
down that long hall Peter waited
and waited. but no one appeared.
Once more curiosity took possession
OF Peter Rabbit. There was a mys-
terry in that house Of Jimmy Skunk's.
II he hadn't been down in there and
discovered it for himself he couldn't
and wouldn't have believed it, But
he had been down in there and dis
covered 1t and he had to believe it
But even though he had to believe it,
he couldn't understand it. And some
how he couldn't leave the far corner
| OF the Old Orchard, because ne hoped
that something would happen that
would explain that mystery.
Late that afternoon, when IT was he.

SIDE II Is WORN WITH ONE
OF THE NEW COLLARS THAT
costume. If it is gay and rakish, one
sees an attempt at those qualities by
the wearer; sometimes a very sad at
tempt, it is true.
An ill-advised woman can achieve a
more foolish appearance by the wrong
nat than by the wrong gown. An old
lsh woman with spectacles wearing a
helmet of purple velvet with rakish
cock feathers rising upward in the
breeze. its brim pushed well off her
wrinkled brow, is a far too familiar
sight
Therefore. the well wisher and the
artist are not too sanguine of sue
cess with picturesque fashions. They
scent danger. They fear that ridicule
may become rampant. Their feelings
are well founded on experience. To-
day they must get ready for the work
of educating human nature, pruning
human desires. repressing human will
fulress. The picturesque is here. 1t
Will be worn wisely and none too well.

vocates and Americans accept. If you

to buy it. remember that it demands

prove abortive the attempt to show

the query of the milliners. Not that
they care, except as 1T affects the
continual changing of shapes by the
public which snstains trade.
Hats of all types are OF especial in

is stirred to conjecture what is to

by the opinion of the Attorney Cen
eral who says in part:
The osteopathic physician who
complies with the educational quail
ifications of the General Code which
requires of an osteopath a prelimin-
of applicants for examination to prac-
tice medicine and surgery, and which
enumerates the subjects in which he
is examined by the State Medical
Board, and who passes such exam
ination, receives a certificate from
such board. Such certificates shall au-
thoriZe the holder thereof to ractice
osteopathy and surgery in the state,
but shall not permit him to prescribe
or administer drugs, except anesthe-
tics and antiseptics.
1T will be noted that there is no
limitation as to the diseases an oS-
teopath may treat. He takes the same
examination in diagnosis as is taken
by the physician for the practice of
medicine He is as fully equipped un
der the law for the diagnosing of any
disease or ailment, if he meets the
educational requirements outlined by
the statute, as any other person can
be. The present statutes relating to
Osteopathy refer to the practitioner
thereof as a physician, the only quail
ficatiOn thereto being the term 'Oste-
opathic 1t is reasonable to believe,
and perhaps apparent, that the sta
tute recognizes him as a physician
and further uses the word 'osteO
pathic' to designate the school to-
which he belongs in the same sense
as 'allopathic' physician is ordinarily
distinguished from Homeopathic
physician. ''osteopathic' indicating
that the use of drugs is not permitted
or desired, where allopathic and
homeopathic prescribe drugs for the
treatment of a patient, the distinction
as between the last two being in the
prescribing itself.
From the above considerations
no reason is apparent why the osteO
pathic physician is not included
within the terms of Section 21O G. |

SURPLUS STOCK RAILROAD
 HORSES SOLD IN ALASKA

The completion of construction work in the gap between rail ends on the government railroad has made available a large number Of horses and the Alaskan engineering commission has been endeavoring to dispose of this stock in Alaska so that it would become a future asset to the country.
 Twenty-two head of these horses were recently bought by a mining concern at Ruby, Alaska, and what they thought of the stock secured and the railroad work under obser- vation during the process of the purchase is aptly set forth in the following letter which Mir. c. F. Kill roy had the courtesy to address to Colonel Mears:
 "In appreciation Of the manner in which your commission delivered the horses purchased by the Inuoko Dredging Co.,, I desire to thank you. Anl also glad to state that the hors- es came through to Ruby in excel lent condition. They are a fine bunch of stock, in fact, the finest bu nCh of horses seen on the Yukon.
 "On behalf of myself and the men had with me, wish to state that throughout the entire trip in your territory We were treated with the utmost consideration.
 "Aside from the purchase Of stock and equipment. We were amaz- ed at the amount of construction work your commission has done un- der adverse conditions. IL is truly a wonderful undertaking, the na- ture of which the average interior sourdough does not realize.
