power of manufacturing. The bits OF
green are securely fastened to the
stems, which are to be the pillars Of his
mansion. He works fast and seems never
to tire and in and out of his building
he goes. A front entrance and an exit
are provided From time to time he
appears to be testing the strength OF
his building and rubs the material with
the cement he secretes. At last he goes
to the clean sand and gets nouthful
of 1t; brings this small hod Of sand
to his dwelling and scatters it over and
over the foundation. This is to hold
his building in position and give 1t
necessary stability.
The final inspection by the builder
Is most interesting. He goes about 1t
as carefully as master builder, to see
that nothing has been neglected to
make the building safe and sound. The
completed nursery is a rounded, barrel
shaped room. The inside is smooth and
plastered with the glue he. rubbed from
his body. The little architect twists
and turns in every direction in order
that he may rub off the mucus from his
sides that turns to a sort OF varnish
when placed on the nursery walls.
Standing at the door of his building.
he waits until the lady sticklebacks are
aware of his presence and nursery. He
is now arrayed in his bright wedding
garments and is most anxious that the
fair ones see him. Sometimes he sees
likely damsel stickleback and makes
rush toward her. He seems to be
telling her many things and he darts
back and forth trying to induce her to
enter his home. She hesitates and then
accepts him and enters the front door.
Here she deposits her eggs and leaves
by the back door. The bridegroom,
outside, is going through all manner of
fancy diving, and swims round and
round in an apparent state of ecstacy
and in about five minutes after his bride
entered his doors she departs. The
young husband enters the nursery and
deposits milt on the eggs, then also
leaves by way of the back door.
The tickle fellow is now seen gazing
at another stickleback maiden, and no
sooner has he induced her to leave her
eggs with him. than he rushes around
and around while she Is within his
home, and the whole story of the first
wife is repeated with the second. Un-
til his nursery is filled to overnoWlng
with eggs, he keeps taking unto him
self wives.
When the young sticklebacks begin
! to pour out of the little dormitory, the
father seems frantic, for fear something
will happen to his offspring. He rushes
after them and protects them with true
fatherly love. At last his duties as a
family man are over and he swirns gayly
away.

LAk OTHER BROWN had difn-,
- M Guilty in believing her eyes.
fV She vas sure that she had
1 i taken her eyes from Unc'
Billy Possum for only q
minute. but in that minute he had
completely disappeared. He had been
lying there at her feet apparently dead.
Indeed, he had appeared so very dead
as she poked him with the handle of
broom that she had not been fully con-
vinced that he was not dead. Now
there was no trace OF him.
Mother Brown looked very sheepish,
indeed, as she looked all about. Pres
emily, from the barn came Farmer
Browns Boy bringing q cage in which
to put Unc Billy. I'VE don't need
that" said his mother.
Why not?" demanded Farmer
Browns Boy. And then as he discov-
cred that Unc' Billy wasn't there q
funny expression swept over his face
1t was part chagrin, part vexation and
part amusement. He looked at his
mother accusingly. Did you let him
go?" he demanded.
Mother Brown shook her head. mo, I"
said She mo, didn't let him 60. He
just went"
Where did he 60 to?" asked Farmer
Browns Boy.
Mother Brown shook her head again.
Il wish you would tell me-" said she.
He was right here and now he isn't
here"
You didn't keep watch of him." ac-
cused Farmer Browns Boy.
Il did all but one little minute" pro-
tested Mother Brown. Il didn't take
my eyes from him once until I heard
Winsome Bluebird, and then only just
long enough to see Winsome in that
tree over yonder. When I looked back
there was no Possum here"
And you were the one who doubted
that Unc' Billy was merely pretending
to be dead" grinned Farmer Browns
Boy. Il guess you believe it now. Well,
he can't have gone far. He isn't very
quick on his feet and we should be able
to find him again. He would make for
the nearest place that promised con-
cealment, and that would be in the
guess he Is inside this shed here some
where. Come on help me look for him. -
So Farmer Browns Boy and Mother
Brown began search Of the shed for
Unc' Billy Possum. There were many
things behind or under one of which he
might be hiding. They looked behind
and under all, but no Unc' Billy Pos
sum. There was big pile Of wood and
Farmer Browns Boy moved all OF
this, thinking Unc' Billy might have
somehow burrowed under 1t. He wasn't
there.
This beats me-" declared Farmer
Browns Boy. He couldn't have come
in here after all, yet I don't see where
else ne could have gone to get out of sight
in so short q time. It must have been
longer than you think that you took
your eyes of him. and he managed to
get over to the old stone wall before
you missed him"

Democrats ascend
ing to power in the House looked rather
slim.
Collier was one notch higher than
Crisp in ranking, with the result that
when the tide did swing in favor OF the
Democrats in the 1880 congressional
House the MisSiSSippian became chair
man of the committee.
Crisp moved up into second place.
Came the first session of the Sew
enty-second Congress, however. and
Chairman Collier was stricken Ill. The
tremendous task of furnishing the lead
ership for balancing the budget by the
raising of additional revenues fell upon
the shoulders of Crisp.
Day after day in those tumultuous
days he stood on the floor of the House
trying to jam the tax bill through.
With the job finally completed, Crisp
turned his eyes to seat In the Senate
caused by the death of one of Georgias
made bid for the post and was de-
feated.
Meanwhile, Collier, now recovered,
had run into trouble in his own State.
He failed to enter primary because
a lower Federal court had ruled the
Mississippi reapportionment law in
valid, and when the Supreme Court
held otherwise it was too late for him
to run.
Thus both found themselves without
jobs after years of public service. Col
lier had been in the House "a years,
Crisp %.
1t wasn't long before announcement
was made by President Hoover that
he had named Crisp as member of
the Tariff Commission. The Demo-
Gratis, however, flushed by the Novem-
ber victory, had laid down policy
that the Senate would refuse con-
firmation to any Of Mr.. Hoover's major
appointments.
This forced Crisp into private life.
Now President Roosevelt comes along
and names Collier to the same position.

mana at Ille SdlIle.
Since 1907 he has been doing this sort
of work for the Government.
In 1920 he was head of the chem
ical and technical division of the
Treasury Department, in 1927 commits
sioner of prohibition and now chief
of the Bureau of Industrial Alcohol.
At his desk, in big sunny room
looking out over Pennsylvania avenue,
putting slowly on a big black pipe, he
talks at length and understandingly
about beer and alcohol
He draws diagrams of various parts
of a brewery to illustrate what he is
explaining. He spells out the queer
sounding chemical terms.
The instrument called an "ebullio-
meter" destined for such an important
use in the days ahead, he explains in
detail.
The contraption that will be en-
ployed to determine the alcoholic con-
tent of the beer before it leaves the
breweries is an ingenious device. AL
most the exact quantity of alcohol in
the liquid tested can be determined
One of DR.. Doran's favorite Jokes
concerns that instrument. He never
misses an opportunity to tell it.
When prohibition went into effect
the "ebulliometer" was looked upon with
curiosity, and by some with disdain.
One writer, in describing its operation,
says Dr. Doran wrote as follows:
When the liquid registers exactly
one-half of l per cent, the instru-
ment flashes a red light. When the
alcoholic content is less than one-half
of l per cent, blue light goes on.
But the moment the indicator passes
the one-haf of one per cent mark.
'Poof!'-the 'ebulliometer' blows fuse. -
Confident that his forces can con-
troll the situation, DR.. Doran is set
Ting down for some hard work. He
doesn't expect any trouble.
When we get creased up," he says,

NV Neighbor Says:

When cleaning oilcloth do not
use either soap or ammonia, as
they fade the colors and give
dull look. Wash with flannel
wrung out In warm water and
rinse over with SKINNED milk.
Rub with a dry cloth and beau
tiful gloss will result.
Mix ingredients for ginger
cookies with cold coffee instead
of water. 1t improves them.
When q coal range is not in use
apply melted lard all over it, and
it will not rust.
Grapefruit and oranges may
be judged by their weight.
Never buy light fruit. A
heavy. skinned fruit is al
ways the best.
Brass beds that no longer look
well may be made to look like
new If painted first with two
