 Is To Blame, Says Winona

 But in love he remains what Nature intended him to be--a dupe
 Love blinds him to the flaws in the beloved for a long time before he complains-something like this:
 My wife is artifical.'' This parti- cular letter comes from a husband of a year. T have to look twice to find the dainty sweet-tempered girl l married" Then follows half a column of criticism which might have been dictated by Adam The wife is ito blame" the young husband hon. estly believes.
 But he is wrong. Nature is at fault for the brides sad slump
 This is a scientific fact and if it could be impressed upon the minds of lovers. it would save a considerable part of the first-year domestic mis- cry.
 The period of courtship is a period of sex manifestations. A girl in love will powder the lily and apply rouge to the rose. A man will parade his opinions and work wonders with his voice, causing it to thrill with emo tion-but never to betray impatience.

Little Stories For Bedtime
 BY THORNTON w BURGESS
cHAITERER WORKS HARD.
BY THORNTON w. BUR

When Chatterer the Red Squirrel had left the Green Forest because of his terrible fear of Shadow the Wea- sel he had been fat. At least he had been fat for him. All through the pleasant fall, while he had been gathering his supply of nuts and seeds to store away for the winter, he had eaten all he could hold, and had filled his red coat out until it actual ly felt too tight. But now that same red coat hung too big for him. Yes. sir. Chatterer had grown so thin that his coat actually looked too big for him. And he was growing thinner every day.
 You see, most of the food had been collected and stored away long ago, and Chatterer had to run about a great deal and hunt very hard to find enough to eat day by day. while as for filling a new storehouse, that seemed impossible. Still. Chatterer kept trying, and day by day he man aged to add a little to the supply of seeds But it was pretty poor fare at best. There were no plump nuts or tasty pine seeds such as filled his 1storehouses in the Green Forest, be- cause no nut or pine trees grew near the Old Orchard, and Chatterer didn't dare go back to the Green Forest for fear that Shadow the Weasel would find him and track him to his new home. So he patiently did his best to find food close at hand. But 1t was discouraging. terribly discouraging, to work from sunup to sundown, run- ming here, running there, running. everywhere, until he was so tired he was ready to drop, and knowing all the time that the snow might come any dav and bury what little food there was Chatterer the Red Squirrel there was. Oh, those were hard days for Chatterer the Red Squiddel, very hard days, indeed.
 One morning he started very early and made a long journey by way of the old stone wall and the rial fences down to Farmer Browns cornfield. Of course, Farmer Brown had long ago taken away the corn, but in doing 1t great many grains had been scat tered about on the ground, half bur- jed in the ground where they had been trodden on, hidden under leaves and among weeds and under the piles of stalks from which the ease had been stripped. For the first time for days Chatterer felt something like cheer in his heart as he scurried about hunting for and finding plump yellow grains First he ate all he could hold. for he saw that then there would be plenty to take home Then he stuffed his cheeks full, scrambled up on the rail fence, and started for his new home in the Oid Orchard.
 Tt is a terrible long way to have to carry all my supplies thought he as he sat up on the top of a post to rest. q don't see how I ever can do

is no more to blame than the moon for its halo on a misty night. The man is no more responsible than the western sky for it's glory when the sun is setting. These are little bits of nature, but one may mean rain to- morrow and the other a torrid day.
 Science has proved that a fuller crimson comes upon the robins breast in the mating season. But science forgets to say that the brightness of the birds plunage does not keep it's gay promise. It lasts only half the summer.
 In the same way, the unconscious sex manifestations of lovers imply twice as much. They are a kind of involuntary lying.
 The bride does not stay as lovely as she seemed. Perhaps her first baby steals her freshness The man becomes irritable. Perhaps his new responsibility for the support of a woman and babe worry him to dis traction.
 One ego complains, T deserve a better fate" The other ego murmurs, I've missed something"
 Each planes the other when neither is altogether blamable
 The great hope is that they will stay married far better than they do when they comprehend better the little tricks by which nature conceals her purpose, the clever schemes of nature which science is constantly revealing to mankind.

SISTER MARYS
 KITCHEN
COOKING FOR TWO

The woman who has cooked for many persons finds as much diff culty in preparing the right amount for only two as the inexperienced housekeeper. After mixing batter for six or even four, it's amazing how little 1t takes to make enough and no more for two.
 Perhaps these rules will help you to gauge proportions.

it. Well, certainly can't if I sit here all day." With that he jumped down to the rail below him. He was half way across when he noticed a crack in it. It looked to him as if that rail was hollow part way. A great idea came to him. His eyes grew bright with excitement. He ran the length of the rail and back again. looking for an opening. There was none Then very slowly and carefully he worked his way back, stretching his head over so that he could look underneath. Almost over to the next post he found what he had so hoped to find. What was it? Why, a knot hole. Yes, sir. a knot hole that opened right into the hollow in the rail. It wasn't quite big enough for Chatterer to squeeze through, but that didn't trouble him. He emptied the corn from his cheeks. and then he went to work with those sharp teeth of his, and in little while. very little while, that knot hole was plenty big enough for Chatterer to slip through.
 His eyes snapped with pleasure as he explored the hollow rail. "I'll make this my storehouse!' he cried Tll fill it full of corn. and then when I am hungry in the winter I can run down here and fill up. It will be a lot better than trying to carry the corn up to the Old Orchard And with that Chatterer began the work of filling the hollow rail with corn.

Zero Hour Is Approached
"But the zero hour has been ap-

Truly the old Mediterranean saw trans

"It has been stated in the past that
wars do not come as the result of an
openly declared policy and the speaker
was correct. We know that the next
war will come as the result Of covert

This will be because We are not gov

reasons for exploiting in Siberia and

terials are there and consequently a

But there is further problem.
Japan has problem with us. We do
not want them to own land here, we
have set aside special schools for them,
we do not naturalize those japanese
coming to this country, we have immi-
grafton laws affecting them and tax
laws as well. But these five prob
lens are to be settled by us. The con-
troll of immigration Is not ground for
grievance because we believe that each
nation has the right to effect such
laws which will act to the advantage
of the nation concerned. We have no
special prejudice against them and this
was handed down to us when George
Washington advised against inveterate
hatred and passionate attachment.
Shortage of Materials
I'VE might tell them we do not like
some of their policies and ask them
to give up their idea of an, empire:
They have come too late to dream of
a world empire and 80 have the rest
of the nations. But the Japanese may
ask us about the Philippines and our
policy towards Mexico and it would
be only reasonable for us to square our
policies with the Monroe doctrine and
the open door,"
Concluding his speech, DR.. Devine
stated that the world Is In the throes
of the aftermath Of war and conse-
quent peace and the response that has
come Is all that can be expected Some
demands will be made, he stated, which
will make it impossible to continue the
aggressiveness of tho past and with
the proposed reductions Of navies it
would make it impossible for any ma
ton to carry on IN aggressive cam
paign against another. The meaning
of 1t all is more than we can realize,
said DR.. Devine, and it Is possible that
militarists may play havoc with what
has been started, but that the people
