NOT THE ONLY ONE.

Little Ona was doing what her
Aunt Sue had hidden her-"a tall
lot OF thinking"
Although the outcome of this
thinking was, in Ona's brain, haZy
and unrealized, she was determin-
eddy working for results. She had
been punished and shamed, and the
primitive element, revenge, was
seething for outlet.
Today was Sunday; Saturday aft
ernoon had been a half day of tor
ture. During all the long hours
she had borne upon her back a
mark Of disgrace that had outlaw
ed her. No one took any notice of
her, until her little heart was de-
spaiTing in lonesomeness. Ona had
a very bad fault-the worst there
was, Grandmother Holt had said
and she must be broken of it.
Aunt Sue, who had 'high-flown
IDEAS" said Ona had great imagin-
alton. Aunt Sue had been to col
lege and had studied psychology;
that study had taught her that ly-
ing was simply vivid Imagination.
Grandmother said: Its just plain
lying" and mother agreed with
grandmother, so Ona had big sign
fastened to her back that read:
This girl is liar! Have moth
ing to do with herr"
At first it did not seem so bad,
but when she went out in the yard
to play, all her playmates looked
in wonder at the sign and hung
around to discuss the matter in
whispers. Even grandmother said
it was harsh medicine, but Ona had
been incorrigible, SO drastic meas
ures were just. 1t would be worse
to have Ona known as the cham.
pion liar among her schoolmates
and friends when she had grown
older.
AS the long afternoon was end
ing, Ona had begun to sense the
enormity Of her crime. When she
went to Sunday school the next
day. the experience was revolving
in her brain. The lesson was:
Love ye one another" This text
she considered over and over. She
did not feel that anyone loved any
one else While she had been wear
ing the sign she had heard a vio-
lent quarrel between her big sister
Molly and Ted Jenkins, her beau.
She had heard, distinctly, each of
them say his love was dead Molly
had told Ted she hated the ground
he walked on, and Ted had replied:
There is no love lost"
And Ted had forgotten to give
her the chocolates he had always
brought her Saturday afternoons.
They would have helped make the
horrible punishment more bear
able.
When the lesson was over, the
teacher handed her card with the
lesson subject on it. After reach
ing home and putting away her
Sunday clothes she hunted for the
box in which she kept her lesson
cards and ran across the sign she
had worn that afternoon before. A
brilliant ideal She went to the
storeroom and found two pieces of
pasteboard On each of these she
printed in large letters:
Love We one another. This girl
is a liari"
Then she scratched out girl on
one and replaced it with man. She
LAS very proud she could spell

The Daily Short Story

man. She then procured some big
safety pins from her mothers pin
, tray. Looking out the window, she
saw Ted Jenkins among the flow
ers on his side the hedge, and Molly
on her side, both gathering flow
ers for the coming Memorial day.
Both kept their backs Stubbornly
turned to each other. Ona stole
! carefully over to Ted and pinned
the man sign" on his coat tail
while pretending TO hang on to it
After a moment or so she stalked
cautiously up behind Molly and
similarly decorated her. Then she
sat down to await results But no
change in attitudes seemed proba-
BILE. SO Ona took another pin from
her apron pocket and attacked
Molly from the rear. The resulting
scream sent Ona flying to the
house.
Ted turned and viewed the won
drous sign, printed in bright red
water colors. Molly's pain and
Ted's exclamation caused her to
turn, when Ted's antics displayed
the information on his own coat
tails. The righteousness of the sit
uation dissolved the quarrel. The
affair was too good a bit of fun to
keep secret, so Ona's operations
were made public to the two fam
lilies that night. Ted bought Ona
a whole box of chocolates.
The small girl waved them tri-
umphantly in the air and informed
her elders that she was not the
only liar in the neighborhood. for
Molly and Ted did not hate each
other, as they had said, for she saw
them kiss each other in the hall
more times than she could count.
Grandmother sighed and hung
the sign away for further use,
greatly distrusting its efficiency.

They were built extensively and their operation,
under American laws, is expensive. Trade may
revive, providing cargoes. but will that suffice
to produce attractive profit? Foreign ships
are operated more cheaply and most of the for
eign ships have also the benefit of government
subsidies. If American shipping is to survive
it must be enabled somehow to compete on fair
terms with foreign shipping. The president
urges rather moderate subsidy and the re-
legation of operating restrictions. Both RENE
dies are unpleasant, but it remains to be proved
that there is any other way of saving the pa
tent

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Diphtheria

We are having an epidemic OF
diphtheria in our village. IL a
family is quarantined with diph-
iberia can mail be taken from the
house? Can one in the family who
is not sick carry the germs?-(N
B. o.
Answer-Letters or papers do not
carry disease. A third person
who comes in contact with a
diphtheria patient, may become a
carrier" that is, he may harbor
the germs in his nose or throat
and communicate them to others
who, if susceptible, may contract
the disease, although the carrier
himself remains immune.
The Patellar Reflex.
Please tell me what is indicated
by a response to a light blow on
the tendon just below the kneecap
when one sits with the knees cross
ed.-(A. M
Answer-The kick of the leg
which follows the tap on the ten
don indicates a normal nerve con-
Quoting path and the absence OF
certain LESSONS Of the spinal cord
Such a test is intelligently employ
ed and interpreted only by a ply
stefan, and for any one else to at
tempt to draw conclusions from it
can lead only to error.
The Sex of Nature.
The initial sentence in one OF
your health talks was as follows
Mature is very good surgeon if
you keep sharp eye on him" In
all seriousness, when did Mother
Nature change her sex-(W. L.
s.
Answer-Who said Mother Ma
ture? A poet. 1 was personifying
nature as a surgeon, and ordinarily
we think of a surgeon as mascu-
line. All the old poets were of the
masculine sex, and when they wish
ed to rave they had to have some
thing feminine for inspiration, so
they made nature feminine. To me
nature is masculine, and I claim
the right to keep him so.
