In the exercise of his sovereign au- thority Jesse l.. Hagy, as monarch of Kamram Grotto, Mystic Order of Veil ed Prophets, decreed that a Grotto of the bigness and importance of Kam- ram should have an official mascot, said mascot to be an animal of the male persuasion of the genus ovis, otherwise known as ram. He therefore issued a royal edict calling on the people of his vast domain to furnish the said he sheep, with the proviso that it be of registered pedigreed stock, and whose geneaOlogy could be traced back to the days of the prophets.
 This edict of his nibs, the monarch, was promptly broadcast by his emis- saries to all corners of the earth and in due time came the report that an animal had been found among the high plateaus of the Persian Hills, whose ancestors had roamed the wilds of Asia long before the dawn of history and who filled all the specified require ments. Negotiations were promptly en- tered into and by ways and means, known only to the initiate, the ram was shipped to America and arrived in Bir- mingham in due course. He answers eO IhC SIyptiS hdAiC OI bAAIAhahf anu looks the part.
 Now old Ben Abou Kabal, the Per sian sheep herder, through whom the negotiations were made, vouched for the pedigree of his ramship, and fur ther declared that he was of sacred origin, being no other than a .lineal descendant of the ram found by Abra- ham in a thicket on the top of Mount Moriah, when about to offer up his son Isaac as sacrifice in trial of his faith.
 Notwithstanding the fact that Ben. AbOu swore to this by the beard of the prophet and his hope of eternal bliss in the Garden of Allah, the latter part of his statement was somewhat dis credited, when a cOm-patriot charged him with being the greatest prevarica- tor in all the land between Mount Ararat and the Persian gulf. Be that as it may, however, it was unquestion- able determined that Marmak was of royal and sacred descent; that he is of the royal breed known as Ovis PoIi, kin to the ram in the Zodiac oH Fora aster, and from which Rameses, H., PharOah of Egypt, secured the first part of his name.
 This being the cease it was decided by his internal majesty, Monarch Hagy, that a ram with such distinguished ancestry as Marmak, should be properly housed and attended to, and looked among the prophets for a suitable keep CT for him. After much deliberation he selected Prophet Wallace Durren as the person for this high and exalted office,

LANDLADY GIVES
 CHILD'S PARTIES
Her Flat In New York Now Known As The
 Nursery

A 5-story apartment house in Brook lyn is known as "The Nursery" Mrs. Christine Bliss Seals, who owns the building, likes the title, says the New York Evening Post.
 Better that than The Kennels, as some of these apartment houses might be caIled,' is the way she feels. Bet ter even as a business proposition, if the landlords only knew it. But that isn't the reason for my welcome sign for children"
 Recently Mrs. Seals gave the latest of her annual Tom Thumb wedding parties for children in her apartment house. They all had ice cream, cake and candy in her backyard. There are twenty children in the building, and on the basis of eighteen years ex- perience as landlady Mrs. Seals in- sists that New York landlords are making mistake in barring children or being reluctant in housing large families.
 Wear Theory Disputed
 The common contention, she says, is that the wear and tear on the build ings is greater when there are children. But Mrs. Seals disagrees with this view. A fond father, walking the floor with q crying infant in the middle of the night, shakes the house less, in her opinion, than a dance, and is less annoying to other tenants.
 Mrs. Seals finds that the presence of children reduces the number of wild parties," leads to regularity in pay ments of rent and stability and per manence.
 My apartment house is full and there is waiting list,'' Mrs. Seals said. T am convinced that a house

LAUGH FOR HEALTH

The diaphragm beats tattoo on the stomach when you laugh. Every time you let go a good hearty laugh, this diaphragm pops up and down on your liver, and helps to drive away the very thing that gives you the blues-bi bilious ness.
 Laughter is the, best brand of pills on earth. Laughter strikes in when it comes from without, and instantly comes to the surface when it starts from within.
 You may laugh because you are hapy, and you may be happy because you laugh. It is the one thing where the cause is the effect and the effect is the cause. Any man can be a mil. honaire of good cheer.--Associate Con- tractor.

and found the usual result in deser-
ton and forced self-sale for hire and
the ultimate exposure in the slave
market. Then the surprisingly sur
prising thing happened, for her de-
serted husband brought her back
again to his home where she had never
been absent from his heart. Out O.
those years of passionate wooing her
for a return to purity and the JOY
Of home, Hosea saw God loving Isra-
el with the same passion with which
he had loved and sought to restore.
His love had demanded rectitude as
essential to his care-was God less
concerned than he? Could God pro-
tect His own when life denied rela-
tionship? And if there was such pas
sion in the heart of the Eternal how
could one fail to respond to it? 1t
held no other demand than Amos had
voiced, but it vastly changed the an
gle of approach and the basis of the
appeal. And it more nearly appreci-
ates the revealings of Jesus than any
other voice from that far-off day. The
note was revolutionary enough and
these two mark the beginning of mod
ern prophetism as distinguished from
that of Elijah and Elisha.
DO OR DIE.
These lesson passages call for doom
if the word should go unheeded. 1t
holds full meaning for these days
when responsibility can be substituted
for heart loyalty. Keep the outer
forms of law and live is the attitude
of many who even abhor the viscious-
ness of the bootlegger or the greed Of
the oil grabber.
In that striking novel of Church
ills, "The Far Country" the great
tragedy was in the ability to find
way to break the law legally, to APP
pear as its devotee and hide the plum
der with the Bonded knee. The real
peril today is the inner lawlessness of
the outwardly law-abiding, and the
old doomsday of these prophets is as
sure now as it was then. No bootleg
ger ever built still in his house I'M
til he had first set it up in his heart.
He has debauched his will before he
has destroyed the foundation of our
democracy. And the old mandate of
doing righteousness or dying is the
eternal law that operates in our social
life. Discovered by Amos and Hosea
it must be lived by US or our own de-
mocracy will suffer the same defeat
that their day knew.
