ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY Olive Barton Roberts

Nancy and Nick met a green-sugar
pig in Sugar-Plum Land. Hello"
cried Nick.
'Hello!" grunted the pig. "Thc
top o. the mornin' to you both"
"Thank YOU" said Nancy. But
why is the top better than the bot
tom, sir?"
"Sure an don't We be askin me-"
replied the pig, Strengthening 'his
green silk necktie and tapping his
nice green silk stove-pipe hat. "Only
the best of milk bottle comes to
the top, doesn't it, and SO | suppose
the best of the mornin' does, too.
Where are you going?"
1--WE are on our way to the house
of the Cut-Out lady," explained
Nancy. "She does mending for the
Gingerbread Man and sews all his
buttons on crooked every time his
knick-knack dog bites her cocoanut
cat. She gets SO cross she can't see
out of her one eye, and that's why
she sews the buttons on wrong"
"Begorra, what of that ?'l asked
Pat GreenlSugar Pig, good natured-
ly. II wear no clothes at all, at ali,
and sure if did / wouldn't mind 4

"But don't you see?" explained
Nancy. "When the buttons are on
crooked they won't 60 into the but

gets upset. As he is boss of Sugar
Plum Land, it hpsets everybody else,
too, because he makes silly laws"
That's too bad!" said Pat Green
Sugar Pig. But don't let's worry.
I'll tell you secret. If you pull
hard, my head comes off and down

head on again or III be no ornament
to the community"
"Oh, we will, we will" promised
Nancy. So the pigs head was taken
off and very shortly put on again.
"Thank YOU" said the Twins.
"The drops are delicious"
"Now I'll be going" said Pat i.
"Give my love to the Gingerbread
Man, and tell him not to worry about
trifles like buttons"

COUNCIL FIXES
FRONTIERS between
RUSSIA AND POLAND

Paris. March II. (By A. P.)-The
Allied council Of ambassadors today
finally settled one Of the most irri-
tating problems left over from the
peace conference by fixing the from
tiers between Russia and Poland.
The councils action was on the
surface mere perfncutory sane
tioning OF tie terms OF the Riga
treaty between Russia and Poland,
and acceptance Of the existing situa-
tion. but il was really the ending of
an uncertain situa ton, which IL has
feared might develop serious trout e.
In fact the Allies had never for
maily accepted the territorial divi-
sions made under the Riga treaty,
and questions had been raised as 10
the fate Of Eastern Gallicia. ThTis
matter had come up on several Oc-
casions before the assembly o. the
League Of Nations, twice on a res
olution introduced by the Canadian
delegation to the effect that the
council Of the league do its utmost
to urge final settlement OF the sta
tus OF the province.
Count Sqrzynski. Polish foreign
minister. said the decision removed

long run, might have developed
