What was found in the book has
caused the wonderment. .-
The report Of the. expedition they
refuse to credit, particularly that part
which described life on the islands,
where everybody devoted himself to
having a good time--no work ideal
weather and nothing 10 do but eat and
drink. They discredit, too, the report
of the fatu iva bird. which is credited
with laying square eggs with queer
markings resembling dice.

Paroled

All over town the coppers
run, to pinch the. man who
wields a gun not wisely but too
we'll; they risk their lives and
strain their thews and wear out
costly cowhde shoes to put him
in a. cell. The gent in jail has
rank renown; he is the toughest
thing in town. a terror to
all men; he is wolf in
human guise and it would seem
a process wise to keep him in
the pen. But in these mad and
maudlin times we would up
lift" the man of crimes and rid
his life of care; he should be
jailed a hundred years, but in a
fortnight he appears, paroled,
as free as air. And when he
leaves the cooler cool, does he
attend the Sabbath school, or,
haply join the "Y"? All, no, he
gets another gun, brass knucks
and sandbags by the ton and
makes some voter die. No won
der that the cops lose heart, or
that the briny teardrops start
! and make their whiskers wet;
| why toll upon the sinners trail,
!, if he, when landed safe in Jail,
becomes the village pet? Why
/ comb the alleys and the slums
for murderous and thieving
buns, hyenas masked as men, if
justice taps them on the wrist
i and sees them by fool women
! kissed and turns them loose
again? We have our carnival
of crime, for criminals don t
serve their time, but get repri-
| mand; and if the reprimand's
severe, a lot of mushy .goops
! uprear and wall to beat the
band. WALT MASON.

this marked for destruction by the McNamaras
who fanatics the subject of unionsm and regarded
themselves doing righteous work innocent lives

The compromise offer which

25 pounds each or more, was ac-
cepted at mass meeting of about
1000 fishermen last night.
These prices are to continue as
long as the market situation per-

without a conference with fisher
men. The packers also cut the

but | haven't had any honey

But l haven't had any honey
moon yet, Duane"
"You don't mean to tell me
that Hal Hammersly has been
neglecting you? told him that
he'd never be able to get away
when poker game tempted, even
during his honeymoon" +"
My heart almost stopped beat
ing. That check for 500 seemed
to burn my pocket. Was it pos
sible that my husband was ad-
dicted to gambling?
"Tell me, Duane" l said,
"what you mean by Halls interest
in poker games. l never knew he
played cards. He always refused
to play bridge when we went out
together
Duane seemed to feel that he
had said the wrong thing, for he
tried to evade telling me anything
more: At last I pinned him down
and found out that Hal had the
reputation of throwing over any
thing else for an evening at cards.
I was very glad | hadn't had
the check cashed, for l made up
my mind then and there that l
would send it back. l was so
deeply engrossed in my problem
that | did not sense what Duane
was saying until heard the wrods
"T couldn't leave you for any
poker game, my dear. / can't un-
derstand why I let Hal carry you
away out of my life"
began to laugh. Good
heavens, Duane, how well you live
up to your reputation. You never
paid me any great attention be-
fore I was married. In letter
received from Hal this morning,
he said making love to married
women was your long suit.
The blood rushed over Duane's
face.
"a man should never make a
confidante of any man who has
not been married five years." he
said, "for he is sure to tell his
wife of it,"
why can he keep a secret to

himself after five years?" l aske,
I curiously.
''The men I know" said Duane
sagaciously, never tell their
wives anything after they've been
married five years, If they. stay
married that long"
Il am not sure, Duane, whether
that makes for happiness or un-
happiness. You know there is a
saying that what one doesn't know
doesn't hurt one."
What makes. you so cynical
this afternoon, Alix?" said
Duane.
"rm not cynical, I'm really feel
ing very happy, because I'm going
home the day after tomorrow"
| surprised myself quite as
much as did Duane by this as
sertion, for until said 1t i had
no intention of going home SC
soon. l tried to think what had
made me change my wind, but my
reasons would not crystallize.

Halls poker proclivities that you
are going home so soon?" asked
Duane softly.

College Ignorance

Thomas A. Edison pronounces college graduates amaz
ngy gnorant-they don't to know anything" the
sented seeking employment this plant. Some $50
questions asked
1t is probable that similar proportion of young who
had not had college training would prove equally ignorant
and the general ignorance be reflected among
full business men, Few have knowledge concerning things
they are not in contact with at their tongues tip
College certainly not ignorant they would
have been without college training which does not and
not increase native ability The college sometimes takes the
youths mind from the study of the practical and
diverts to the superficial and he has to nean lot of
things when he graduates into practical world.
What gets out of college depends entirely upon
the individual No college make silk purse out of
The youth who wastes his time college would
waste it anywhere.

PY1lne PROSPECTS

Prospects that the prne crop will be partial failure
heavy drop reported in orchard sections due
unfavorabe climatic conditions
small crop means better prices and larger fruit and
those who have partial crop will probably realize the
average profit.
Those who have any of their last years crop hand
should the and hold them for higher market
las sure to the sun to shine.
Those whose yield is light should utilize the opportunity
to give the trees heavy pruning cut out the dead wood and
start the growth that produces the big prunes for
future years.
There is apparent misfortune of the present that
