A LITTLE TACT


 With children as with adults, little tact goes long way in smoothing the rough places. With some parents, orders are orders and the child is expected to go all the way to meet them. He must drop whatever he is doing whenever and because they command.
 Some children adjust themselves to this arbitrary interruption of their occupations more readily than others. The child who gives the greater concentration to his play. who has the power to become wholly absorbed in what he is doing. is the one who puts up strenuous fight.
 Perhaps one-half the battle in the attainment of obedience is in making it easy and attractive. When, for in. stance, it IS time to wash his hands for lunch, instead of prying the child away from his play by pittins our own will against his, we can adopt less high handed methods.
 Instead of saying, Put away your toys. it's time for lunch." We can say. Let's run your train into the station now so that it can take on passengers until you come back from lunch:" or. Lets save you. house over here where no one will step on it while you are having your lunch"
 The child recognizes the temper of these remarks as an accession to his wishes and an appreciation of his point of view. He responds ac- cordingly.
 Another type of justifiable diplo- macy is to say. Its time to wash your hands for lunch. Do you want to take dolly along or shall we leave her here?" or Shall we walk to the bath room or shall We hop all the way?"
 The child feels that he is asked to choose what he prefers to do, and there is no suggestion of the possi bility of refrsal.

I ious hope albeit % faint that it was plain she was beset by grave doubts | of me.
 "Who-are-you?" she whispered, and I did not wonder that she did not recognize me. l had seen her but two or three times during Prin. cess Olina's tenancy of The Larches, and on one ot those occasions she had been so ill as to be oblivious of everything save the presence of the young mistress she adored. .'I am Mrs. Graham" l answered quickly. your neighbor. The prin- cess is now in my house. I nave come to tell you that I will take care of her until can send her safely to you or to her mother. Queen Olga"
 Anna Is CoMfOrted |, Purposely I spoke my words slow ly as if to a child, and the convul- sive sobbing frightened. then ceased. l loosened her hands and put one of my handkercheifs into them. She wiped the tears from her cheeks and leaned eagerly toward me.
 You - know - then-that-she -" She checked herself and looked at me, suddenly terrified.
 T know everything" I told her emphatically. and I know tha. Prince Georges"
 "Ach! you know that. too," she exclaimed, and then broke into a torrent of words in her own tongue. 1 waited until she realized that l did not understand a word of her ha- rangue and then lifted my hand.
 Please" I said. Tell me slowly in English. if you can.'
 She looked at me steadily for q second or two, then spoke halt ingly.
 They must marry. Princess Olina and Prince Georges. They love each other once in Transvania. She be good queen. She must not send him away. She must not marry this - this"
 She broke again into words of her own tongue which I guessed were anything but complimentary to Noel, checked herself. and looked at me turtively.
 "This-No-el-your brother?" she asked
 No. mo-" I assured her. He is nothing to me. But he is good boy"
 A sudden whimsical thought I has nd in, with a gesture that was a bit melo- dramatic.
 Will you promise to keep a se- cret if tell you something l think will please you?' I asked

NadlGr Surprises Anna Schmidt tn
 the Act of Grseving Over Princess
 Oaina's bctFOthal
 The room which entered after directing Mrs. Ticer to keep every one away was 70 dimiy lighted that al first I could not distinguish the objects in it. All the curtains had been closely drawn, as if the occu- pant could not bear the light. But l had come in noiselessly. and the low sobbing to which l had listened in the next room went on with no interruption. Patiently the griering occupant of the room thought her. self alone.
 I stood motionless just inside the door while l accustomed my eyes to the dim light. Presently in a high backed chair directly across from me saw Anna Schmidt with her hands covering her face, her thin body swaying with sobs she was try ing to keep unheard. Even in her grief the strict discipline of her

 With the fear that I would startie her strong up me, l slipped back behind the partly opened door, and rapped upon its panels. l heard sharply caught breath. and armed with the knowledge that she would not be unduly startled by the intru- sion. I pushed open the door and crossed swiftly to her side. did not intend to give her a chance to refuse me entrance.
 Her hands were still before her face, and from behind them came a hoarsely croaked command.
 Go away. Mees Ticer."
 A Good Guess
 With the determination to risk everything on a bold stroke. I put my hands upon the quivering and wrinkled ones covering her face, and took them down quickly. Bloodshot, startled eyes, heavy with tears and set in the agonized twisted mask of a face stared up at me. and l spoke in quick reassurance.
 Listen to me-" l said slowly but with emphasis. Your mistress, Her Royal Highness. the Princess Olina. of Transvania"-I wondered wheth- CT I were handling the titles cor rectly-"will not marry the young man you fear. I promise you that. shall see to it that she does not"

YOUR HEALTH
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBElN Medical Association ard cf Hy- veia the Health MaSaxine.

No doubt the first vegetarians de- veloped from animal worship. It is said that the Jewish orthodox group do not eat pork because of an ori- ginal worship of the procine speciea which merged gradually into sant- tary law.
 The Hindu has an especial rever- ence for the COW. Americans sell dom eat horse meat knowingly whereas many foreign peoples con- sume it regularly. Some Philippine tribes delight in the flesh Of puppy dogs and it has been asserted that cat may be sold for rabbit.
 In the superstitions regarding tht eating of meat there is a strange conglomeration of religious belief. psendo-science. emotion, and ignor- ance.
 About 1892. as is pointed out by Dr. Logan clendening in a special consideration of the subject in '"The American Mercury" Dr. Alexander Haig announced the doctrine that uric acid is a factor in the causa- ton of many diseases. notably Bright's disease. gout. high blood pressure and rheumatism and that uric acid arises in profuse amounts from the eating of meat.
 That notion had enormous vogue although the evidence to support it has. for the most part, been thor oughly invalidated.
 The actual facts are that uric acid is always found in the blood in some amount and that it is in creased during the eating of con- siderable quantities of meat. On the other hand, it cannot be proved

Peter Rabbit was full of ques- tions. He is apt to be when he is interested in anything. He was inter- ested now-greatly interested. There were many things he wanted to know-thinks that only Beauty the Wood Duck could tell him.
 Did you ever before have your home in a hollow tree?" inquired Peter.
 II have never had it anywhere else" replied Beauty. T was hatch ed in a hollow tree myself"
 T suppose saf1 Peter. "that when you told me the day you and Mrs. Wood Duck arrived that there was only one tree around here that would do for your home. it was be- cause you couldn't find another ho- low tree. Was that it?"
 Beauty bobbed his lovely head. Yes" said he. that was it. At least. it was partly it. There are oth- CT trees with holes in them. but no other tree with big enough hole high enough up to suit us.
 Do you always nest as high up as that?" inquired Peter.
 No" replied Beauty We have had home in hollow stump, but we always feel safer if our home is up high"
 Peter scratched one long ear with one long hindleg. Then he scratched the other long ear with the other long hindleg. Peter was thinking. He says that scratching his long ears with his long hindfeet always helps him to think. Beauty watched him few minutes. Well. Peter" said he. what have you on your mind now?''
 Il was wondering about those ba- by Ducks replied Peter.
 What about them?" inquired Beauty.
 That hole is very high up" said Peter.
 .'Of course it is," replied Beauty That is what pleases us. We wanted a home high up
 '''rhat is all very we'll for you and Mrs. Wood Duck, but what about the Ducklings?" asked Peter.
 Well. what about them? 2" Beauty replied.
 ''Hoy." demanded Peter, "are they going to get down? Do yon keep them up there until they arc big CT ougt to fly down? l canno, imagine twelve young Ducks biz enough to fly beng crowded into that hollow tree"
 Beauty chuckied. Neither can r. said he. "I fear that some of the,r would smother to death long, long before they were big enough to fly
 ''Then how demanded Peter will they get down.
 They'll get down all right" rc- piled Eeauty. If you arc around atout that time. you may he inor tstcd in seeing tbom get down"
 ''When will it be-" demanded Pc ter eagerly.
 "Oh. not for some time" replied Beauty. You see. it takes quite a while to hatch out Ducks eggs Mrs. Wood Duck wiil be sitting on those egGs two or three weeks yet"
 '1 shall come over every day." de- clared Peter.

BILL HART COMING,
 COLISEUM TOMORROW

"Tumbleweeds, which is to be seen at the Coliseum Thursday and Friday, is a William S. Hart pro- duction in which great crowds of people are used, as well as enor- nous herds of cattle and horses, soldiers and thousands of vehicle.
 Having to do with the famous dash of the homesteaders to settle on the Cherokee Land Strip when it was opened in 1889, this feature alone entails the use of many hun- dreds of men and women as well as children, who arrive, at Caldwell, Kan, to stake their homesites in the Strip. The actual dash itself is historically recognized as one of the greatest "rushes" in the story of the Vests upbuilding
 Bill Hart has a role distinctly suited to him in the part of Don Carer, self-styled "tumbleweed" who only comes to rest when romance enters his life in the person of a delightful girl of the midwest played by Barbara Bedford. SPORTS

Marines arriving ct the critical mo- ment, opened at the Palace last night and is on again tonight. The Palace Orchestra, playing for the feature, added to the rapid pace and stirring scenes on the screen.
 We have Walter Pidgeon as a naval officer discharged for cow ardice and sinking out of sight to reappear on tropical island where he is rescued by a beautiful damsel who turns out to be Myrna Loy. The girl is disappointed in Walters lack of spirit and Walter, ashamed of, himself, joins up with gang of bandits headed by desperate Sam Hardy. When Sam tries to appro- priate Myrna, Walter overcomes his mental fears and assisted by George Stone and troop of U s. Marines he proceeds to lambast the ever lasting daylights out of Sam Hardy.

 "This institution has outgrown it's present quarters and many of the exhibits cannot be properly dis played but this situation will be cared for in the new Federal build ing. The present appropriations are believed to be sufficient but be- cause the attendants are required to devote long hours during the summer season it would be more satisfactory and better administra- tion if the appropriation for the assistant could be made so that a salary of $200 per month could be paid for perhaps five months, May to September, inclusive, each year. No doubt the curator can easily care for the work during the win ter season.
 Publicity
 More than 10000 reports and de- scriptive booklets were distributed from the office of the Governor during the biennium The bene- fits derived from this publicity work more than justify the cost and unless other arrangements are made for this work the appropria- tion should be continued.
 An audit of the Treasurers books has been made as directed by Chap ter TT, Section ', Session Laws of 1913 and the report is available for your consideration. The report of the auditor contains informa- tion of great value and should be available for the public It is sug- gested that you should consider the advisability of printing it, either in part or in it's entirety, for distribu- tion.
 Reports of the several depart ments of the Territorial Govern ment have been prepared by the officials in charge and they will be transmitted to you in accordance with instructions contained in the laws. The law requires that cer- tainvof these reports shall be print ed but no appropriation was made for this purpose hence the neces- sary funds were taken from the Emergency Fund These reports merit your careful consideration,

thority to exercise administrative control over the estimates for ap- propriations that are made by Territorial institutions and submit to the Legislature only those items which, in the opinion of the Board, are justified, otherwise a budget law is ineffective and can serve no useful purpose.
 The budget as submitted does not contain estimates to cover the cost of moving the offices to the new building when it is completed. It is suggested that small amount be added to the appropriation for the contingent expenses of each of flee to meet this contingency.
 From time to time I shall trans init to you additional reports and recommendations as occasion may arise
 There Is a vast amount of work that must be done in a limited time. We should make every ef- fort to dispose of it as expeditions ly as possible, consistent with thorough consideration of each sub- ject under discussion. The clos ing days of every session are near ly always occupied by matters that could have been disposed of earlier if they had been pressed, this con- fusion is not compatible with that mature deliberation which is essen tial to sound judgment and hope that we may have all important measures disposed of well before adjournment.
 "In closing I wish to state that the Governors office and all other Territorial offices are ready and willing to aid and facilitate your work throughout the session. We shall be glad at all times to dis cuss matters frankly and fully with you. Only by close cooperation and clear understanding between the Legislative and Executive branches can we achieve real success.
 T sincerely hope that the well fare of all sof the people in eour great Territory will be the coritro1- ling factor in your deliberations.
