Rodcrick Tells His Side of His Quar- rel With JuniOr-and Madgc Finds It Pretty Weak.

 It Pretty Weak.
 Rodcrick's query and the avid look on his face startled me with realization of what my vaguue talk of settling his quarrel with Junior might involve. The shackles of fem ininity seemed 10 settle around me and mentally l drew back from the vista which I myself just had open ed. But my affirmative answer to his question was firm.
 Yes. I mean just that. Roderick," :" I told him. You and Junior may light out this quarrel outdoors if, after thinking it over, and talking it over with me, you do not decide that you both have been very silly
 Rodericll had been watching my face keenly, his own growing more sullen as I proceeded. When l had finished. he twisted himself toward the back of his chair.
 "Aw! I knew there was If in it somewhere he muttered.
 l accepted his challenge Of moral cowardicc even as l noted that he was going to be a far more diffi- cult diciplinary problem than Jun ior
 Look at me. RodcriCk,' l com mandcd and he turned his eyes re- luctantly toward me.
 There is no if in the promise l made you, Rodcrick.' l told him. When you and Junior tell me that you can't settle your quarrel any other way than by a fight, l shall have your uncle take you out in the barn and let you box it out. Butt made my voice a bit contemptuous. do you want mo to think that you arc afraid to talk the thing over first, to let mo hear your side of tho story? Junior is waiting now to tell me his side of the affair. But l wanted 10 hear yours first
 He squirmed in his chair, juniors q baby. a sissy" he burst out
 With delicately careless air, l booked at his nose still bearing traces O the nosebleed which my small sons fists had given him. Then with q slight, but meaning smile l looked away again, but not before l had seel his cheeks in a race to match the color of his nose.
 "He Can Hit All Right
 "Aw, I didn't mean that" he blurred out. He can hit all right, hut-.'
 T knew you were too honest 10 tell me anything else l said, stress ing tle approval in my voice. Many scssicn with Junior have taught me the value of following a scratch with a bit of healing ointment. Now, suppose you settle back in your chair and think this thing over. I'm foing over 10 the other side Of the room. When you're ready to tell your side of this, will you call me?' I'm counting on your honesty. Rod crick. I'm sure you're going 10 tell me the truth.'

in Treasury 3K per cent short

While income tax payments for
the December quarter will be
about $48O, 100000, a major part
of this revenue will go to the gen.
eral fund to wipe out the deficit
which has accrued in between the
tax payment periods. The paper
deficit in the Treasury to date is
1861, ,321.541. The deficit is un-
usually large at this period Of the

8 SEE HARDWARE
TRADE GAINING

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Mild
weather continues to retard the
demand for seasonable lines in
most of the principal hardware
markets throughout the country,
Hardware Age will say, tomorrow
in its weekly market summary.
However, an accelerated move
ment of holiday merchandise is
responsible for an expanded sales
volume, although Christmas buy
ing has been affected by general
business conditions.
Sentiment in the trade is bet
ter than it has been for some
time, and it is the consensus of
opinion that hardware stores will
receive their share Of the Christ
mas trade, because of the practi-
cal and useful nature of the ar.
ticles they offer for gift purposes.
Early indications confirm the
view. which is justified by the
fact that the general public may
be expected to spend less money
for presents classified as luxuries
Shelf hardware and staple lines
continue to move IN moderate
volume. Future orders for spring
delivery are being booked in fair
volume. A slightly better demand
exists for buil6c-s' hardware and
tools.
Little fluctuation has occurred
in prices, although an easier
trend continues to prevail. Read
justments, in scattered instances
have been responsible for a few
revisions Of minor importance.
The credit situation "a fairly
