1t was he, Peter. who had given the
alarm.
For some little time Peter sat there
listening and heard nothing but the
distant sound Of the voices Of the
geese. Then suddenly his heart gave
jump. What was that2 He listened
harder than ever. Az surely a. he
was sitting there he heard footsteps !
They were very, very light footsteps.
but they were coming straight toward
him. He waited only long enough to
make sure and then once more he
started for the brambls- -tangle. Upper
ty-lipperty-lip, and this time he didn't
intend to stop until he got there.
Those light footsteps were made by
Old Man Coyote! Peter knew them
too well to be mistaken.
1t was true. You see the instant
Old Man Coyote, hiding there by the
pond Of Paddy the Beaver, had heard
the thumps of Peter he had known
that there wasn't the least chance In
the world for him to catch one Of those
geese that night and he had at once
made up his mind that X he couldn't
dine on fat goose he would do his
best to dine on Peter himself. He
knew just as well as Peter did that
there was no safe hiding place for Pc
ter nearer than the bramble-t -tangle
and he made up his mind that that
was just where Peter would start for.
You see Old Man Coyote is very smart.
Yes, indeed, Old Man Coyote Is very
smart. He knows all about Peter
and his ways, and he felt quite sure
that Peter would do just as he did do
stop to listen to what was going on
back there at the pond.
BY this time Old Man Coyote was
not far behind him and his nose was
in Peters tracks. Now Peter can run
very fast for short distance, but for
long distance Old Man Coyote can
run very much faster than Peter. That
safe old bramble-tangle was still some
distance away when Peter, looking
back az he ran, saw Old Man Coyote
almost at his heels. The sight Of those
grinning teeth seemed to give Peter
more speed. Never had he run as he
ran then. His heart was humping so
that 1t seemed as II 1t would burst.
His breath was almost gone The
bramble-tangle was only three jumps
away, but Old Man Coyote was SO
close that 1t seemed to Peter as If he
could feel his hot breath One jump i!
Two jumps! Three jumps Peter
felt the friendly old brambles brush
against him and then there was
sharp pull at his tail. With a little
scream Of fear Peter pulled with all
his might and then-he was safei He
looked back. Just on the edge OF the
bramble-tangle stood Old Man Coyote
and In his mouth was a little bunch OF
white hairs. Peter looked at his fun
ny little tall. 1t looked funnier than
ever. There was hole In the middle
where the hair had been pulled out.

might for sounds Of some one follow
Ing him. Perhaps" thought Peter,
hopefully, "they won't try to catch
me tonight"
Now Peter never runs very far at a
time without stopping to look and
listen. He had run about a third cf
the way to the bramble-tangle when
he stopped and sat up. With his ears
standing straight up he listened with
all his might. 1t was very still there
in the Green Forest where he was, but
back where he had come from he
could just hear the gabbling voices of
the geese, and so he knew that they
had been wakened In time. He knew
perfectly we'll that the wisest thing
for him to do was to hurry ON, but
his curiosity would not let him. Per-
haps, after all there was no real dan
ger. He would stay where he was
and then il no one followed him per-
haps he could slip back to Paddy's
Pond and learn just what had hap
pened after he had thumped He won

U. S. CYPPED
On Post Office Job, Labor
Head Charges

Cedar Rapids, la. (ILNS)-In let
ters sent to the department of labor,
the treasury department and Iowa s
senators and representative in con-
gress, President j. C. Lewis, of the
Iowa State Federation of Labor
charges that union workers are be-
ing Disseminated against on the new
post office being built here and that
the job is not up to government spe-
cifications Affidavits filed with the
letters charge that the required
amount of cement is not being put
in each batch mixed for the post
office job.
The affidavits are from Thomas
Bigg, Donald Hadsell and Don Doyle
employed on the post office job as
laborers. Biggs alleges that he was
directed by his foreman, Harvey
Buesch, to keep mum about the
amount of cement which was being
used, and to keep the empty sacks
under cover. The other affdavits are
along similar lines.
In his letter President Lewis re-
views the attempt of the contractors
j. P. Cullen & Co, to reduce the pay
of building laborers from 65 cents
per hour, the prevailing scale, to sc
cents an hour. He also alleges that
union workers have been discriminat-
ed against because the company was
compelled by the government to pay
the regular scale of 65 cents an hour

PETER RABBIT HAS
A CLOSE CALL

"A CLOSE call means q narrow es-
cape. That is what Peter Rah-
bit had the night he gave the warning
that saved some Of the geese In the
pond OF Paddy the Beaver. Peter
knew just how much risk he was run
ming when he thumped that warning.
He knew that just on the other side
OF the pond. hiding In the Black Shad-
ows. were Old Man Coyote and Reddy
and Old Granny Fox, and he knew,
too, that they would be very, very
angry because he had spoiled their
chances Of getting fat goose for din
ner. So the instant Peter had thumped
his warning he started for the nearest
bramble-tangle. 1t was Z long way
of, but 1t was the nearest safe hiding
place he knew of.
Lipperty,lipperty-lip ran Peter, and
as he ran he listened with all his

Positions held by women are no
longer confined to the lower levels" !"
Commissioner Dell said. "The mum
ber of women appointed to higher
grades of administrative positions
and to, jobs requiring technical, pro-
fessional or scientific training is in
creasing steadily.
"a duty to make good rests upon
women when they undertake either
government or private work, for
there is still remnant of distrust
as to their ability to carry their full
burden of responsibility when they
compete with men,"

Washington.-The number of wom-

THE DEPRESSION

Anyway you take it,
With grin or with smile
The result of false economics
Will stay for quite awhile.
The pessimist has no solvent
The optimist no cure;
The only saving virtue is
How much the people endure.
That virtue is often spoken of
AS a character building force
Side by side with system who's
ethics are
Blood and tears, but no remorse.

No More Piles
You Can End Your Awful Misery Quick Without Cutting or Salvss


 Thousands of Pile sufferers do not know that the cause of Piles is internal-bad circulation of blood in the lower bowel.
 That is the scientific truth about Piles = the real reason why salves and suppositories do not give perm anent relief, why cutting does not remove the cause.
 Your itching, bleeding or protrud- ing Piles will only go when you actually remove the cause-and not one minute before. External treat ments can't do this-an internal medicine should be used. HEM ROID, the prescription of Dr. J. s. Lsonhardt, sold by good druggists everywhere, sucoe ds because it stimulates the circulation, drives out congested blood, heals and restores the almost dead parts.
 pr. Leonhardt's HEM -ROID has an almost unbelievable record of success right in this city So why waste time on external remedies oi worry about an operation wher Juneau Drug Co. invites every Pile sufferer to try HEM-ROID with guarantee of monsy-back if it does not end their Piles, no matter how stubborn the case? -adv

TALKED ON CANCER
Audience Enlighted on
Best Plan to Stave Off
Dread Malady
AT PARISH HALL

DR. John NJ Freiheit was the
principal speaker at the Holy
Name Society of st Francis Xavier
Parish last night. His subject was
Cancer. The speaker urged his
hearers to have a. medical exami-
nation once or twice a year which
he considered the best safeguard
possible against the predisposing
causes of. this dread malady, add
ing that many things which lead to
cancer IL taken in time could be
cured, but that once cancer has set
in about all the most skilled ply
stefan can do is give the patient
relief.
DR. Freiheit is connected will,
st Mary's and the waterbury hos
pitfalls and has had considerable ex-
perience in treating cancer and
kindred maladies. He was given
a vote of thanks for his lecture
and the meeting expressed the
hope that they will have the pleas
ure of hearing him again.
1t was announced that an enter
tainment win be given Friday eve
ming, the proceeds to be devoted
to financing the fife and drum
band connected with the parish.
Mothers and friends of the drum
corps members will meet at the
hall Tuesday night when plans will
be considered to help make the
entertainment success.
The next game in the AS" tour
nament will be played tonight and
Judging by what has been heard 1t
will be the hottest contest since
the tournament was started.
