Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

w YHAT often seems to be
M bravery Is not bravery In
" " the trueSt sense. It some
times is merely the result
of intense fright. It really is despera-
ton. instead of the bravery 1t seems to
be. You will sometimes see defiance
which appears to be wonderful ex-
hibition of courage, when all the time
1t is wholly the result of great fright.
Prickly Porky the Porcupine was
moving along up the Crooked Little
Path in his usual slow fashion. He
wasn't In good humor. He was fret
ting and fussing to himself and pay
ing no attention to his surroundings.
He wasn't looking for trouble, and
you know that that is just the time
when trouble Is likely to appear.
Prickly Perky, fretting and fussing,
was suddenly brought up short by
loud sniff. There was only one per-
son who could sniff like that. Prick
ly Porky knew it. He didn't need to
so much as look, but he did look.
There stood great big Buster Bear.
Instantly something happened. The
thousand little spears hidden in
Prickly Porky's long coat suddenly
leaped up into view. They stood out
in all directions. Prickly Porky began
to lash his tail from side TO side.
Buster Bear growled one Of his
deepest and most r,lmbly grunly
growls. 1t made Peter Rabbit and
Jumper the Hare, who were hidden
under some hemlock boughs nearby.
shiver. 1t had an ugly sound, did
that deep, rumbly grumbly growl.
My, my, it certainly did. 1t was the
kind of growl that most people would
want to run away from. Perhaps
Prickly Porky did want to run away,
but he didn't do 1t. No, sir. He didn't
do 1t. What do you think he did?
Why, he began to back up. That Is
what he began doing. backing up,
and the funny part of 1t is he wasn't
backing away from Buster Bear, but
backing right straight toward Buster.
Buster Bears growl changed to
something very like snarl. 1t didn't
stop Prickly Porky. No. sir, it didn't
stop him for a second. He was de-
faint. When Buster Bear ordered him
to move on and get out of his way
PrickIy Porky just kept right on back
ing. In fact, he backed faster than
ever, and Buster Bear had to back up

he may sound very fierce, but. you
notice, he gets out Of Prickly Porky's

Prickly Porky lifted his head for a
hasty glance around. He saw a hole
under the roots of tree. 1t was Just
about big enough for him to get his
head into. He stopped backing up

chestnut burr, the size of Prickly Porky,
would have been no worse to handle
than was he, and all the time that

dashed back and forth.
This was Prickly Porkys defiance.

There were several first settlers"
in the New England States bearing
the name of Sisson. Among them
was Richard Sisson, who was ad-

him to have served on the grand
jury of Dartsmouth, Mass, in 1867
and 1868. He was born in England

for, you know, he Is q very slow

into that hole. He couldn't see any
thing there, but he didn't care about
that. Every one of the little spears in

The demurrer of Chief Justice
walter B. Sands to the complaint
filed against his retaining his Of

ruled, Wednesday, by Judge Rob-
or C. Stong of Billings, sitting
in stead of two Helena judges

In the complaint Sands right

ground that he violated the cor

ised to serve the Office for less

Judge Stong not only overruled
the demurrer and held that
Sands must answer the complaint

jurists draw $500 additional

During the campaign Sands, in
his speeches said the added salary

OLD AGE PENSIONS
GAINING IN TEXAS
With the Townsend Plan Most in
Favor and Organized Clubs
in Every Village.

The following anent old age
pension plans is clipped from
the Feb. 2 issue of the Progress
sive, the La Toilette weekly pub
lished at Madison, Wisconsin:
Sentiment in favor Of some
kind of old-age pension is grow
ing in Texas in such a way that
it now appears the politicians,
both state and national, may be
influenced to undertake enact
ment of such legislation. The
Townsend plan seems to be most
in favor and Townsend clubs are
being organized in every village
and hamlet in the state. Texas
being noted for the good health
of its residents has literally hun
dreds of thousands of citizens
60 years of age or older and
when these are properly organ
lied their strength politically
will be a factor to reckon with.
The movement is not without
its sordid side, however, a n d
there are hundreds Of grafters
going about as organizers of
Townsend clubs, representing to
the unsuspecting old men and
women that they must join some
club and pay a fee for registra-
ton before they are eligible to
receive the old age pension. Hun
dreds of thousands of dollars
are thus being collected off the
old people of the state, a group
that a ill, afford to be victim
lied in such manner.
