Walled Chinese Municipality of 3oo,-
900 People, Most Attractive
to Tourists.

At the land end of the Shantung
railway lies Tsinan-fu, a most inter-
esting walled city of 100000 inhabi-
tants. 1t swarms with picturesque
and malodorous scoolie life and boasts
of many oriental allurements that
charm the traveller, who never ceases
to be enthusiastic. Although not Wis
tied by many tourists today, it may
eventually become popular place for
seekers after the curious.
Few Chinese cities are more fasci-
mating. A magnificent wall surrounds
the city, which is eloquent of the
greatness OF the past.' There are sew
eral imposing gateways through which
all traffic must pass. The flowing
waters of yelling springs assist Won

Judgment of Modem Solomon That
Proved of Some Benefit to
the Red Cross.

The Milwaukeem chapter gained S5,
due to the fact that Nichetas BeltosoS
is a diplomat as we'll as peacemaker
and philanthrnpist.
One day two women entered his
store and as they were leaving the
shop mic" noticed a So bill on the
floor" says the Red Cross Courier.
Did either of the ladies lose it?"
he asked. '"rhey did," the ladies'
agreed.
They were uncertain at first, but
as their certainty increased Mics per-
pleXty did likewise.
There are three ways to settle
this" he said. 1--WE can tear the bilE
in two and give each of you half
which would be foolish. l could keep
it myself, which would be wrong
Since. you can't have it, and l can't
have it, let's give it to the Red Cross"

Satisfaction All Round.

Things sometimes turn out in rath-
er unexpected manner. Cornelius Cor
dite one day set out into the jungle to
hunt big game. BY a strange coinci-
dence panther also set out in the
same jungle to look for some dinner.
II must have a fur coat" said Cor
nelius.
II must have something to eat"
said the panther.
After both had prowled about for
some hours they at last caught sight
of each other.
''Ahal" said the hunter, leveling his
gun, there is my fur coat"
He fired, but the panther, lodging
behind tree, escaped unhurt.
Then the panther rushed out fell
upon the hunter, and devoured him.
SO both were satisfied. The panther
mad his dinner and the hunter his fur
coat.

He stayed away while you were so
very tiny.
1T is best that way. Mother Fox
wants to be all, all alone with her
babies when they are so very tiny.
And all alone in her three-room
ground apartment she stayed with
you"
Daddy Fox will teach you lessons,
too. He will also show you how you
must hunt and do the marketing.
You will learn just little at a time.
THAT will be enough to do. No
little fox should learn too much at
a time, for we do not want you to
adventure far.
"a very little hunting at a time
will do.
You must beware of Great Horned
Owl. He's wild fellow and he
doesn't care in the least for dar-
ling little baby fox.
perhaps l should say he cares for
a little baby fox too much. Much too
much
''He doesn't really care for a baby
fox or he couldn't catch the little dar-
ling and put an end to its sweet fox
life.
You must stay most of the time
safely in your soft grassy bed in the
Home Den, 1st Bank, The World.
you must beware of the strong
Weasel who loves little foxes in the
same cruel way that Great Horned
Owl does.
"The Weasel knows how to hunt,
too. He knows how to take short
cuts, and he is tireless.
"Once a darling little fox was
saved from a Weasel because old Rat
tlesnake saw him in time. Old Rat
tie didn't want to protect the baby
fox, oh no, you must watch out for
Old Rattle and his family.
But Old Rattle wanted that Weasel
and fight they did so that the baby
fox got home to safety.
you must be careful of men-and
guns and rattlesnakes. Copperheads
you must beware of and field mice
you must smile at. For you are an
enemy of field mice. You can catch
them!
Beware, too, of the Goshawk. He
is on enemy"
''All that your mother tells you is
true" said Daddy Fox. And then
Daddy Fox began to give LESSONS In
what they must beware of and what
they must learn.
"Be sure you learn to climb tree
this summer. Daddy likes to see his
children climb trees and you must be-
ware of dangers that are always about
the wild animals.
Eat breakfasts and lunches and
suppers of blueberries and meadow
mice and garter snakes, but leave Old
Rattlesnake alone, as your mother has
said.
I'm years time-yo will be old
enough and wise enough to choose
your own mates and start out house
keeping and homemahAng for your
selves

For the past

they love each other so much, so

Then Daddy Fox suggested a good
game, and they all had a most Won
derful Fox frolic for all of them loved
TO play!
And Mother and Daddy Fox said
that play was a most important part
Of life!
