The farmer recognizes his obliga-
ton to produce food, Tor people must
eat 20 live. He demands that both
the owners of the coal mines and the
coal miners recognize their equal OBJ
legation to produce coal and he de-
mands that the management of the
railroads and the railroad workmen
recognize also their equal obligation
to keep trains moving, for unless the
food he produces is moved promptly
to market the people will starve.
If the various groups In this coun-
try are determined to prey upon one
another and abandon law and order
for strong arm methods, the farmer
can take care Of himself. He can re-
duce his production to his own needs
He can follow the example of some

that sort of thing. He knows that
such a policy would bring about in
this great Republic exactly the same
sort of conditions that exist in Rus

 "There." she cried That's the first time a child of mine has played that trick on me Let it be the ast.'
 And it was. Nimble was very care ful, after that. to prod only those that didn't mind such pranks.
 Luckily he soon found that the oth- CT Spike Horns liked the same sort of fun that he did. They were just as proud of their new horns as he was of his And (sad to sayD there was d good deal of boasting among them. Each one declared that his own horns were the longest and strongest.
 All the Spike Horns, including Nim- be, were forever putting one another in play. And they had just dscov- cred d new sport when Nimble met with what he feared, for time, was d terrible accident.
 Late in the fall. before the deep snows came, both his horns loosened ard dropped off his head.
 "Oh, Oh." he cried when he saw what had happened. I'll never be able to take part in another mock battle again." For the Spike Horns had had gay times pretending to fight one another in most savage fashion.
 After Nimble lost his horns, he carefully avoided all his playmates. He didn't want the other Spike Horns to sec him At last, to his great dis may, one day he came face to face with one of them. They both tried to dodge out of sight But the other, whose name was Dodger was not quite quick enough. Before he hid behind a thicket, Nimble saw that he had lost his horns. too
 Then Nimble guessed the truth He knew why 1t was that he had man. aged to keep out of sight of his friends Every Spike Horn in the neighborhoo1 had lost his horns! And every one of them had been trying to keep out Of sight

A SPIKE HORN,

Nimble didn't mind losing his spots when he grew older. He had some thing else that gave him much more pleasure than they ever had. He had la new toy Or, to be exact, he had two new toys, And everywhere he went he carried them with him.
 He carried them on his head And he couldn't have left them behind in the woods even if he had wanted to- at least not until he" had enjoyed them for a whole season.
 Of course you have. already guessed that he had pair of horns. They were not very big. But neither was Nimble for that matter. So they suited him well. A little deer like him would have looked queer wear ipg great, branching horns such as his father owned.
 Nimbe's horns were merely two spikes which struck up out of the top of his head in pert fashion.
 It was q proud day for him when an old deer spoke to him and called him young Spike Horn." About that time the forest folk had begun to speak of him as a ''yearlng." But there was something about Spike Horn" that sounded much more inn portant. ..ts
 Somehow there was a new crop of Spike Horns that summer-Nimble's IS second summer. And every one of them had been--like him-a little spotted fawn the year before.
 At first Nimbe had thought it fun to use his new horns to jab anybody that happened to be with him. One day he even stole up behind his own mother and gave her a sharp prod with them.
 He never did that again. His moth
