Stickytoes the Tree Toad, who, as have told you before, is really d Tree Frog. felt as if he just couldn't wait for Scrapper the kingbird to come back and tell him about his cousin Big Stickytoes, who lives down in the warm country where Scrapper goes every winter. It was two days before Scrapper came back to where Sflckytoes was, in a certain apple tree in the Old Orchard. No sooner had Scrapper settled himself than stickytoe6 began to tease for more about his big cousin.
 Scrapper tormented him for few minutes by pretending not to know what he was talking about Then he took pity on Stickytoes. Your big cousin" said he. ought to be called Big Stickytoes. and that is just what I am going to call him. Along in the latter part of the dry season Big Stickytoes begins to think about a mate. just as you do early in the spring. But Big Stckytoes knows that he cannot find a mate by look ing for her, and that she will not come looking for him until he has little pool for her to live in So. just ss birds build nests. Big Stickytoes, makes a pool.
 He hunts up the bed of a brook that is pretty well dried up. and he finds nice little sandy bar close to tho little water that remains. Then he digs a little hole in the sand close to the waters edge. With his front feet he pats the sand into a lit tie sort Of dam all around his little hole. After while the water comes creeping in through the sand and by and by there is enough in there 10 partly fill that hole. which really is then a little pool. The work of Rig Stickytoes ie done then. He sits in the middle of that little pool and calls. He does this at night. His voice can be heard quite q long dis lance. There he sits and calls and calls all night lon gfor Mrs. Sticky toes. When daylight comes he climbs a tree, and there he sleeps and stays the whole day through. Al night. down he comes 10 sit Tn his pool and call and call. By and hv Mrs. Sticky toes answers.
 Big Suckytoes invites her 10 come and see the pool he has made. Some times Mrs. Stickytocs has to be teae- ed quite | bit. But al last she comes. and if she likes the litle pool Big Stickytoes has made. then that be- comes their home. By and by Mrs. Stickytoes deposits her eggs there, and q little later that little pool is full Of tiny tadpoles. It's the safest kind of place for thrm.'
 Pooh" interrupted Stickytops. ''1f there is water in that partly driedup brook l don't zee the sense In going to work and digging a little pool. l should think those pollywogs would much prefer a bigger place to live in."
 That is because you don't know about conditions down there" replied Scrapper. Personally. l think it is very srnar! Of Big Stickvtoes to make . little pool like that. Your tadpoles have enemies ir the Smiling Pool, dc they not,"
 8fickyioes nodded. "Of course '' said no. ! guess all ba Dies have snemisA But :here are plenty Of hid tag V'aess n the sml,ing Pool for ths 'AApoies 70 4-so out Of the way o. :hs.S CT sm:es.

water that remains. So tadpoles would have very little chance there. That is why Big Stickytoes makes a little pool all his own. In that there are no enemies to eat the baby tad poles. By the time the rain comes l and the dry season is over. those tadpoles are big enough to look out for themselves. Then the water ris- ing in the brook overflows the little pool and they swim out to take their places in the Great World" Thank you, Scrapper.' said Stickytoes. 'Its hard to believe but do believe it." Scrapper chuckled. "I could tell you of another cousin Of yours who does something stranger still,' said 1 he.

Such a literal mindedness might be considered
strange in states where political labels are handed
down from father to son, but it il not particularly
strange in North Dakota. In that state OF adventurous
politics men openly and unhesitatingly follow the party
which comes closest to fitting their views on the issues
Of the hour-or they strip off all party labels II none
is to their liking. This is not a condition which makes
for strong party organizations, but neither does IL pro-
duce such incongruities as we are witnessing here in
Texas. where politicians are fighting with all their
strength to help the republican ticket but protest in
dignantly against being classified as republicans.
One may safely assume that in turning dmeocrat
Governor Maddox isn't deliberately sacrificing his
chances of reelection. No doubt he anticipates that a
majority Of the voters, though the state is normally re-
publican, will feel no ~forbidding repugnance to scratch
ing the republican ticket. North Dakota has only five
electoral votes and hence cuts very little ice in the
national election. But If Governor Maddock's desertion
Of the G. o. P. is a reliable symptom Of political feel
ing in the farm belt, the incident has an undeniably
important bearing on the outlook for November.
