that. We're all busy men - time worth

Jiffers get out of this trivial matter if he
handles it, Uncle Benjy?"
Mr.. Tulkington almost squirmed. He never
enjoyed parting with money. He gulped twice
before he was able to mention the sum he had
decided would enlist Augustus Five hundred
dollars" he said, as shadow of pain swept
across his face.
An equally observable fash of delight swept
across the face of Augustus Jiffers. I'm your
man, Uncle Benjy But no murder - can't
break my good old rule"
Don't be fool,' said Mr.. Tulkington
harshly. You've been out at my place on

suspiciously.
Absolutely not When do we go?"
To-day" said MIR. Tulkington. There are

When Alf Klemp heard the glad news of the
prospective five-hundred-do reward, he
was more than delighted; for Augustus owed
him sixty-for dollars, borrowed money. and
he had not expected to see any of it for long,
long while. He hurried home to pack bag
while Augustus FASTENED to his own rooms to
do likewise. When Alf, bag in hand, burst in
upon Gus Jiffers, he interrupted a telephone
conversation.

Jiffers said. mo. Aunt Clara, was not

Now, what were you saying, Aunt Clara?

When he faced All Klemp, a broad smile
lghtened the face of Gus Jiffers He said from
time to time, as he listened to his Aunt Clara,
"Yes!" and Positively and "Yes, dear
Aunt Clara, and finally. But I'll need some
one to help me, Aunt Clara May bring Alf

he hung UP.

1t seems that Uncle Benjamin does not like

get the goat of even the optimistic Augustus
Jiffers.
Absolutely, Aft" he said to his friend,
Alfred klemp, who likewise was bond sales
man out of job, ''the dear old personal
exchequer is so hollow that when it is squeezed
it gives forth nothing but windy fiff like

"A fiff or foot, Gus?" Alf kemp asked.

Jiffers begged. This is serious. A bit more,

Alf.
"GAS2" queried Augustus Jiffers.

Augustus Jiffers looked at the uncalloused
palms of his hands and groaned. Thus far he
had been able to retain his natty garments.
his spats, his cane and his general air of superi-
ority to the proletariat. The thought that he
might soon have to indulge in manual labor
gave him severe pain.
"You couldn't wangle few berries from
the dear old rhinoceros, could you, old COM
rade" asked Alf Kemp.
BY the affectionate geological designation,
Mr.. Klemp indicated Augustus Jiffers uncle,
the immensely wealthy BENJAMIN Tukington.

1t was therefore with surprise that Augustus
Jiffers received the next day letter from his
Uncle BENJAMIN which asked Augustus to call
at MIR. Tulkington's Office at his earliest con-
venience, and added that the visit might
result in a pecuniary profit. Mr.. Jiffers'
earliest convenience was half hour after he
had received the letter.
"Wait here. Alf," MIR. Jiffers said to Alf
Kemp. when the elevator had carried them
to Uncle Benjamin's headquarters on the
thrty-ninth floor of the massive Tulkington
Building in lower New York. II can't guess
what the old rooster has in his mind but if it is

I'll do it. And pray for me, ALI"
As MIR. Tulkington greeted Augustus. there
was almost no scowl on his heavy bulldog
face.

Augustus into chair 'Glad to see you. You

DON'T NEGLECT TO REGISTER.

With the final day of registration for the city election March 30 and the books showing less than half of the regular voters of the city prepared to cast their ballots April 2, it would appear that early spring fever has fallen upon us, or perhaps it's the campaign that hasn't reached the boiling point At any rate, the electors should not over look the fact that to cast a ballot one must be registered and so far less than TOO have done their public duty in comparison with 1864 registered voters last year
 This is a permanent registration You won't have to bother again, so don't forget to get your name on the books that your voice may be heard at the polling booth April 2. It is the duty of every citizen to take part in the affairs of his city so don't delay and thus sacrifice your right of franchise in the city election.

Needless Jitters in Europe.
(Kansas City Times.)

British and Europeans are so concerned over the possibility of aggressive that they frequently misjudge the situation in America. They take the high cost of American military establishment as proof of excessive armaments in the United States unmindul of the fact that because of higher stand ards of living the small American army is expensive to maintain. They often alarmed over reports that this country has made military alliance with la foreign nation not understanding that under the American system secret treaties-so familiar in Europe-are impossible. The latest evidence of this sort of nervousness is the British assumption that the United States under the cloak of civil aviation lis building a great military air fleet.
 If they only knew the purposes behind the de- velopment of fast passenger planes in America the desperate efforts of the air lines to build up a
 volume of business that will make the operation of planes profitable and the necessity of creating fast planes to immense distances in a short time in order to attract passengers, their fears
 would fade
 A little first hand observation would convince European neighbors that peace and recovery are the chief objects with which Americans are con- cerned and that is farthest from their thoughts

NO INTERNATIONAL COMPLICATION.

Despite dashes of cold water from time to time on the proposed International Highway to Alaska the project gradually ahead and eventually i will be built in face of many obstacles The charge of international complications has been made i Canada joins with the United States in completion of the route but worthy undertakings always have their opponents.
 Under the title Alaska Highways No Menace, The Northern Argonaut of Stewart, B. C., has thl to say the matter of international complications
 Cice Plinta M L. A for the Peace River, B. C.. planted a depressive thought recently at the Kimsmen's Club luncheon in Van- 
 In MT. Plantas opinion highway through B, C. to Alaska would be of such obvious strategic value to the United States it could only be accepted sign of an alliance with that country.
 This statement indicates snap judgment on one of the most progressive under takings proposed in the last decade.
 This effort to throw cold water on a project which has had the best thought of leading Canadian and American business men in their efforts to bring about financing and construction of the B. C.-Yukon-Alaska Highway should not cause the train Of thought to slacken even for a moment
 Contrast with MT. Planta's negative speech the statement of Assemblyman Ander- son Of California when he declared, Four- teen thousand men would be given work and a country capable of supporting 3,OO0,- 900 people would be opened up by the new highway which is the northern unit of gigantic international highway planned to run from Alaska to Argentine.
 When this highway is built we venture to say it will not cost the citizens of Can- ada dollar. It will be the direct means of bringing into Canada millions of dollars and that too without involving Canada political ly. Any alliance which may grow out of such constructive building program will be purely commercial.
 To describe this project as an unfriend- ly gesture to Japan or tacit act of alliance with the United States is sheerest nonsense.
 As well might say that when the United States extended paved highway to Tia Juana Mexico, and linked up a road running into South America it became allied

 That Italy had at last arrived at the conclusion that she could not longer remain out of the war in Europe was clearly indicated when all Germans at the resorts of the Italian Riveria and Germans throughout Italy were quietly de- parting for other sections. Some were going to Spain, others re- turning to the Fatherland.
