would do. Old Mother Nature.
 Chatterer the Red Squirrel could hardly believe his eyes when he saw that tall stump, which mad been his biggest storehouse, lying flat on the ground, split wide open and with not a seed, nut or acorn anywhere about. The shock was so great that for a few minutes he could only stare at it.. He couldn't find his tongue, and that is state that you will seldom find Chatterer in.
 Of course. he knew at once that that stump had fallen and split in the great storm All about were other fallen stumps and trees and great branches. But what had be- come of those seeds and acorns and nuts? They should be there scat tered about on the icy crust. But there wasn't one. No. sir. there wasn't one.
 Just as soon as he was sure of this Chatterer knew what had happened. He knew that some one had found that storehouse before the great storm and had taken all those seeds and acorns and nuts. He found his tongue now. My, my ,my, l should say so. Such a rage as Chatteret flew intol There was no one in sight to scold. but he scolded just the same. He scolded so hard he jerked himself off his feet. He jerked his tall so hard it is a wonder it didn't snap right off.
 He was in such a rage that he couldn't stay in one place if he trieA He ran about this way and that, and not once did his tongue stop. He called the one who had taken those seeds and nuts and acorns every bad thing he could think of-wretch, sneak. robber. thief. He made dread ful threats of what he would do if he found out who had emptied his storehouse. He was so busy being angry that for a while he actually forgot that he was hungry. And he didn't once stop to think that this un- known taker of his food had done nothing that he himself would not have done had he been in his place.
 Yes. sir had Chatterer found a storehouse like that he would have emptied it, and so far from feeling that he had done anything wrong he would have thought himself smart. You see, among the little people of the Green Forest and the Green Meadows taking things another has hidden Is not considered wrong, as 1t would be with us. It Is not thought of as stealing. Those who hide things are supposed to be smart enough to hide them where no one

International Alliances

International Alliances" constl- tutes phrase which means many thinrs: not alone political and eco nomie. 1t social, the particular angle hay, in mind being international marriages"
 Just a few weeks ago the an nouncements were thick and fast in the daily press regarding the mar riage of the Duke of Marlborough and Miss Deacon of Boston and the mar riage of the dukes former wife, Con suelo Vanderbilt. and a distinguished Frenchman, and many comments were l made regarding the outcome of these marriages.
 The duke and Miss Vanderbilt had made a mistake of their marriage. while the Frenchman entered the bonds of international marriage for the first time. as did Miss Deacon, who has been one of the greatest beauties and belles that America has ever known and who has had prob | ably more suitors for her fair hand than any other American.
 One evening at the Metropolitan opera, when she was the exposure of all eyes, I saw the Duchess of Marl- borough with her mother, Mrs. o. H. P. Belmont, and the late MT. Bel mont; the party occupied a box, and the Duchess with her tall, slender. graceful figure, her swan-like nec4s and youthful face, sat well to the front of the box, while Mrs. Belmont. wearing the wonderful Vanderbilt diamonds augmented by the Belmont collection. with her Titan hair and statesque figure. was a fine foil for her distinguished daughter; Mir. Bel mont. who 1t may be recalled always wore brass buttons on his dress suit up to his last appearance before his death, sat very far back in the box little observed and seemingly quite out of the running, as 1t were, with the fair Ava, his wife, and the aris- tocratie Duchess of Marlborough.
 These two International alliances the Duke of Marlborough and Miss Deacon. and the former duchess and the Frenchman. bring to mind the oft mooted question of whether such marriages ever really bring happi- ness. Of course, there are a few ex- captions to the rule, but in most

reached eight games before 1t was
