Letter From John Alden Prescott,
Ncwlywed, to His Bachelor
Friend, Sydney Carton.

Dear sgd:
/ wanted to have talk with you
before ! left, but you know how
rushed we all were.
/ tried to explain to Leslie that my
second marriage would be a quiet
one.
Isn't it strange, Sgd, that women
have no sense of humor? She didn't
see the joke of that remark. Her
great eyes filled with tears and she
asked me plaintively, Jack, you
couldn't marry any other woman If
/ should die or go out of your life ?"
OF course / said, mo, dearest, !
couldn't. Don't you see / was jok-
ing?" when l wanted to say, Il don't
know whether / would or not. Other
men have been married more than
once, you know
Sgd, ] wonder how long 1t takes
for people to be married before they
can be perfectly honest with each
other.
Leslie is a wonderful girl. and we
arc perfectly happy - I am finding
out however, that my wife is very
sensitive. The other night in the
hotel there was very fascinating
looking widow whom | made the
mistake of admiring 10 Leslie I
wish you could have heard my wife
lay me out. The poor woman had
done nothing except smile at me
once or twice.
l guess, Sgd, ! have got to mind
my "P's and Q's' from now on, You
know | wouldn't hurt Leslie for the
world.

They crept inside.

Cuffy explained. But we did catch
squirrel and porcupne."
They'll do said Mr.. Bear. Just

I'VE ate them where we found
them" Mrs. Bear told him.
Mr.. Bear was terribly angry when
he heard that.
You knew was starving" he
complained.
But you asked for rabbit" his
wife reminded him. Il didn't sup
pose you'd care for anything else"
MY goodness" he growled. Il need

I'm SO weak / can hardly stand. But

doors and go a-hunting. If I don't
come back you'll know I've dropped
in my tracks,"
With a roar of rage that was 30
loud as a lions. Mr.. Bear rushed from
the den and went crashing down the
mountaihside.
Now, Cuffy Bear looked frightened.
And his sister Silkie began to whim-
per.
Don't worry, children" said Mrs.
Bear Il know your father. He'll be

Mrs. Bear and her two youngsters,
Cuffy and Silkie, started for the
brook after their eyes had become
used to the daylight. AS soon as they
could stop blinking they saw that
spring had surely come. There wasn't
a cloud in the sky. Now and then Il

heads. In many places the ground
was bare; and such snowdrifts MS they
found had softened under the bright,
warm sunshine.
Except along its edges, the brook
was free of ice. And all three of

IOvEILTES RECEIVE $500
ARREARS THRU MONDELA

Mr.. and Mrs. Ben L. Leithead OF
Lowell, have been notified by Ex-
congressman MOndell that they are
shortly to receive approximately
$500 and $50 per month for
the balance of their lives, as COM
%pensation for the death of their son,
James H.. whose death resulted from
his service in the world war.
Back of this is a story of more
than usual interest to the people of
Wyoming, and particularly to the
friends of this worthy couple and to
admirers of the man who for more
than a quarter of a century repre-
scented Wyoming in the House.
This case was originally taken up
In Washington, more than a year
ago. These early efforts were un-
successful, and friends OF the Lowell
parents were told that nothing could
be done for their relief. Early last
September. however, the case was
brought to the attention of State
Commander A. B. Tonkin, who then
worked in cooperation with Con-
gresham Mondell.
From the official records and the
adverse reports above referred to the
case appeared hopeless. Neverthe-
less the case was thoroughly investi-
gated. AS a result, the Wyoming
Congressman discovered a condition
which had not been covered by EVIL
dence previously filed, and with the
said Commander Tonkin set about to
secure the evidence necessary to pre-
sent the case from that angle. The
evidence was finally secured, and
one of his last acts as Congressman
was in notifying the worthy couple
at Lowell Of his successful %presenta-
tion OF their a AS a result Mr..
Mondell's work. and the helpful CO.
operation of DR.. Tonkin. 1t Is still
possible that the parents will receive
full insurance payments Of $4,000.
