ADVENTURE OF
THE|:TWINS
MRS. PENGUIN AND. THE SHEATH
By OLJVE RORERT0 BARTON

Peter Penguin was so full of stor.
les that Doctor Bill and the Twins
coaxed him to stay.
"You are such good company!'
said Doctor Bill; ,"and can't tell YOU
when I've had such good laugh"
do tell US another story coaxed
well" said Peter Penguin
scratching his head with his wing
"let me see. Would you like to hear
about the albatross and the jelly
fish or about the penguin and the
sheath bill bifd?"
(Which is the funniest one?" ask
ed Nick.
"Alas!" sighed Peter Penguin
Neither are SO very funny. Indeed
in the story about the albatross bird
the jellyfish put so many singers
into him he was lame for six days
and"
"Then tell US the other story" said
Nancy quickly.
"All right" said Peter Penguin
And he began:
"Once upon a time there was a
penguin called Mrs. Penguin, and
she scolded her husband something
awful. If he said the sun was hot
she said it was cold, and if he said
the sea was rough, she said it was
smooth, and if he said the fishing
was poor, she said it was fine.
And so it went on, day in and
day out until Mister Penguin got a
perfectly hen-picked, l mean pen

He lost his appetite and he swan
SO slowly he never won any races

Fort Worth Star Telegram)
Publicity of an unusual kind is
attained by Texas through the is
suance in London Of special
Texas supplement- of the London
Times, the worlds largest news
paper, with circulation all over
the world. The occasion is the
forthcoming convention in Hous-
ton Of the Associated Advertising
Clubs of the World, which many
British business men will attend.
Sixteen full-size newspaper pages
are devoted to Texas, with articles
by experts discussing every phase
Of Texas geography, history, in
dustry, resources, climate and peo-
pie. Each Of the chief cities of the
state is described, Forth Worth re-
ceiving column notice.
Texas, even more than the re.
nainder of the United States, feels
the tie of kinship with England.
In its youthful days as republic,
Texas received a great deal of as
sistance from government and
financial authorities in London.
Much British money has found in
vestment in Texas development,
and many British citizens have
cast their lot with the new Anglo
Saxon civilization in the South
west. Texas today is the chief
provisioner to the great English
cotton spinning industry, and Tex
as fun nishes petroleum and petrol
cum products to Great Britain in
great quantities. Most of the
English travellers will be visiting
Texas for the first time. Texas
hospitality is pledged to make
their stay a pleasant as well as
and informative one.

its practitioners into quack psyche
logy. The way to tell the quack
from the scientific psychologist is
simple enough.
First: is he recognized by the pro-
fession? Ask the professor of psy-
chology in the nearest university.
Second: has he anything to sell to
you whose chief value is the money
you can make out of it? The real
psychologist will advance your
knowledge, rather than your "pow-
err"
And that knowledge will make you
wiser, rather than richer. Beware
of any psychology that is worth
the money"

+! New York, May 21.-One of the
concerns young Henry Rogers, son
of H. H. Rogers, the Standard Oil
millionaire.
Young Henry was deprived of the
US of on Of the family cars because
he drove too fast along the Long
Island roads. Then he asked his
father if he could have a car if he
bought one out of his. allowance. His
father, believing that he could buy
no high-powered car out of his al
lowance, gave his permission.
Young Rogers bought an old fliv-
yer for $780,. However. he continually
made improvements on it until he
had spent 5000, with the result that
he had a racing body with bright
blue coat Of paint and the engine had
been regeared until it could make
100 miles an hour.
Then, the elder Rogers interviewed.
He arranged with a garage man to
re-alter the car so that it would not
run. There said the mechanic, as
he finished his work. "I'll guarantee
that car won't run mile without
burning out its bearings. It's all out
of gear" Young Rogers took the
car out and made his usual speed
| with no damage to the car.
The next day the young Barney
Oldfield took his remodeled flivver
to the garage to have the oil system
inspected. The garage man drained
off all the oil in the car, told the
youth that his car was all right and
then watched him drive down the
street in the expectation of seeing
the bearings burn out.
Young Rogers is still driving his
car at great speed without any oil
and the bearings haven't yet burned
out.
Another New York success story to
attract ambitious youths from afar:
Samuel Rubel has just completed a
merger Of ice and coal companies in
Brooklyn. involving property valued
between 80 and so million dollars.
Eighteen years ago he was working
Is hours day peddling ice from his
wagon. He came from Russia in

don't depend too much on outsiders"

Just look at poor Mister Penguin!
Isn't it shame? His wife nags at
him until he hasn't any spirit left
"One day his wife said to him,
Mister Penguin, l am going to lay
some eggs. And while I'm sitting on
them, wish you would watch
around and keep the sheath bills
away The sheath-bills are birds
and enemies of the penguins.
"'Sure WILL" said Her husband,
because he was most obliging and
did everything she asked him.
$50 that day she laid an egg and
the next day she laid an egg and the
next and the next, until finally she
had seven eggs in the nest
Then she sat on them.
But she hadn't been sitting more
than two days when two sheath bills
came along. They always go in
pairs, sheath-bills do. Like most
robbers they work in twos, and they
were robbers all right. They were
after her eggs. ~
"One sheath-bill began to peck at
her head.
But Mrs. Penguin never moved.
She knew that if she did, the other
sheath-bill would get behind her and
eat her eggs. A
$50 she called, Mister Penguin!
Mister Penguin! Come here at once
and help me-
Eyes, darling!' said the rushing
up. But suddenly he stopped and
just looked on. :.
Why don't you help me ?" de-
handed Mrs. Penguin angrily.
~ was just thinking said Mister
Penguin. Now you know how feel
all the time. No matter which way
move there you are after me. I
think III let you alone and see what
happens
"'oh! Oh! Do help me- begged
his wife. 4 see how mean have
been. I'll let you alone after this.
Honestly, will"
So Mister Penguin chased the
sheath-bills away and Mrs. Penguin
had no more trouble. Mister Pen.
gum hadn't either. His wife had
learned a lesson"

MARRYING FOR MONEY

Would you marry for money?
And what DO you think of who does?
The other day the girls famous eastern college took
secret ballot this question: Would you marry for love
money?
And almost every girl who voted said frankly that she
would marry for money?
These young women were not the clinging vine type
They were among the most highly educated in the
country girls who leave school and earn good sal
aries as teachers social workers. magazine writer's private
secretaries.
They can into almost any profession where a

And yet they would throw into the discard and
marry for money and ideness!
How do you explain it? Frankly, you can't. 1t is mys
terry to all.
II money could buy Happiness the thing all want
Who would blame for wanting it? But it can't.
AS wise old Dr. johnson said hundreds of years ago:
Money can neither open avenues to pleasure

Adenoids are not difficult to re-

In addition to the loss of smell

ON HEALTH
ADENOIDS EASY TO REMOVE

If your child is finicky eater and
is apparently undernourished there
is possible chance that he suffers
from adenoids.
Adenoids are a superfluous growth,
which form at the roof of the natal
passages.
Because of their location they pre-
vent the passage of air through the
nose, and the child breathes through
the mouth.
Because the air does not pass
through the nose the child possesses
little sense of smell, and also suf-
fers in the sense Of taste.
