Senator LaFollette during his
twenty five years as political
leader in Wisconsin. and what
they therm the reactionary prin-
ciples of his political enemies.

Pet Canary Flies AWay ButLost
Ad in West Vi1gi11ia1 Finds Him

Hello" he said fitting over
the edge of the cage and sitting
nonchalantly, as much as to say:
"Oh, L could get in all right. I'm
a wonderful fellow. I'm just sit
ting outside here to keep you IN
suspense a while"
Miss Canary looked up shyly and
said:
How do you do?"
Mr.. Canary Immediately tried
out his lungs for her benefit. SO
remarkab Bile was the effect that
Mrs. Buoy, inside the house, came
out to Sc eho wit was that her can
ar4 was singing new kind or
song.
Mr.. Canary moved discreetly
away at her approach and refused
to get within catching distance
Mrs. Buoy knew how to handle
Mr.. Canary, though. She took
Miss Canary indoors. leaving the
door standing open.
Sure enough, Mr.. Canary came
sailing in presently Mrs. Buoy
shut the door and the capture or
the strange canary was the matter
of few moments.
The rest is simple. Mrs. Buoy
saw the "lost adj in The West
Virginian and soon Mr.. Canary
was back in his own cage at home.
He will probably not be given an
other such opportunity to make his
escape.
