EVERYBODY Shuns Boxer.
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS.
Few SO lonely walk or run
As they whom other p"or'" Shun-
Jimmy skunk


Fimmy skunk knows that. He
k4oNs, too. that loneliness is the
ETc&test of all punishments. Perhaps
il is because he knows these things
that he is SO very careful how he
uses that little bag of scent he al
Ways carries with him. TO Jimmy
himself that scent is not at all un-
people it is dreadful. He knows that
nonc can stand il. not even his
hUnErjeSt enemy. unless it be Hooty
The owl And SO he seldom uses his
little scent gun hastily. He uses il
only whom ht thinks himself in dan
ger or when Ii. is much provoked.
Eoxc5. the runaway little cub. who
hzd foolishly refused TO step aSih"
when Jimmy skunk politely asked
him to- was learning now what il
means to be Stunned. You know TO
shun another is to keep out of their
way-to have nothing to do with
them. And there is no loneliness like
the loneliness of one who is stunned.
Wandering along aimlessly. the
miserable little Bear met Jumper the
fsrc. Boxer just achcd for some one

YOU littl. nuisance. If you cant keep
out OF trouble with Jimmy skunk. go
of some whcrc by yourself and keep
away from the homes of respectable
people" Mrs. Grouse rose on stout
wings and whirrcd away through the
trees. and Boxer didn't even guess
that She had left a nest with ten
eggs not eight feet from where he
Was standing.
The two tears which had gathered
in the corners of his eyes rolled down
his nose as he dropped to his feet
aud wandered on. Presently he met
Eeddy Fox.
Goodness gracious" exclaimed
Teddy Fox. How dreadful. People
who cannot keep out of trouble with

Soap should be used very care

engine trouble going up the Wolf
Creek Pass, over the Rocky Noun
tain, when we reached the top we
were 10000 feet above sea level.
The scenry was great. The mountain
flowers were at their best. | had my
field glasses which l used a great
deal. Ascending and descending this
Pass was very perilous. The road
was narrow with many curves and the
road was very muddy. 1t was 9
miles to the top and % to the bot
tom There was l mile going down
that was very dangerous with a very
narrow road and the mountain wall
of rocks on one side and a deep can
you on the other. Here we met several
cars. They insisted on me staying
in my car, but out | jumped, just to
think of staying in the car when
there were not more thar two feet
margin. 1 said no, never. We met
manv tourists in Fords, some travel
ing very fast, some going, very slow,
some camping, some fishing. We
asked many if they caught many fish.
Every one said no. I have heard many
times that Colorado excelled any
place for fishing, but in my judgment
it is nothing compared to Mississippi.
We found the Laveta Pass all O. H.
good wide roads and not so steep, be-
ing only $500 feet high. I have
always desired to make a trip across
these mcurtai g b t;rt road, after

GIVEN 80 DAYS
Fifteen Year Old Colored Boy Came
Here From Richmond
For Work

About 1920 o'clock this morning
Police Thompson and Miller encoun-
tered a small>colored boy who acted
suspicioasly. The officer said they
thought ne intended to break into the
store at the southeast corner of King
and Payne streets. However, before
the boy did any damage he was taken
in custody and when arraigned in
the police court today he said his
name was Willie Reeves and was
from Richmond, and was fifteen years
of age. The boy said he came here
by sidedoor Pullman in search of
work.
The courts verdict was that he
vii work at the city house for the
next ninety days.

admitted ind:scretions with "one
Charlotte Johnson" prior to his mar
rage.
That he paid Charlotte Johnson a
sum Of money to get rid Of her.
That when she asked him why he
did not don a uniform and serve his
country he flew into a passion, strik
ing and beating her. This, SIZE says,
took place in Miami, Fla, early in
their honeymoon.
That Joyce begged her to fback
him no if Charlotte Johnson threat
ened to cause him trouble.
That his answer to her original
petition is chiefly material for the
newspapers, not intended for use IN
teh courts and constitutes Cow
ardly attempt to defame her"
That all the new charges of init
macy with other men which he makes
against her are utterly false.
That he is worth in excess of So
900 1000 instead of less than $4,000
600, az he claims.
That her only cash assets at this
time are $24,919.92 on deposit in a
Paris hank.
She makes no specific denial of the
bigamy charge made by Joyce, but
says at the time she was married to
Philbrick Hopkins, she believed she
had been divorced and was free to
remarry.
Peggy denies, generally and sepa
rately, all charges of infidclity made
by her husband and denies she ever
threatened him with physical vio-
lence. Furthermore, she denies the
! excessive use of Intoxicating liquors
Sarcastic reference is made to
what are termed the efforts of Joyc2
to make the court believe he was an
unsophisticated boy who was mis?c<!
and scduced into marriage by Peggy
"On the contrary" the answer
states, "the respondent was not the
possessor of this certificate of moral
character which he ha issued to him
elf" Then she goes into detail re-
garding lis relations with the wonl-
an known as Charlotte Johnson,
