Blacky Has Another Fright.

long time. What he had taken for
the top OF the tree was, in fact, Hooty
the Great Horned owl. Hooty was
sitting up very straight. He looked
to be a part of the tree. Yes, sir, he
did 50. Blacky almost turned q
somersault in his effort to get away.
Yes, sir, he almost turned a somer-
sault. He didn't make sound ex-
cepting with his wings. He was too
frightened to cry out. Fortunately for
him, he had come UP behind Hooty.
Also, fortunately for him, Hooty was
half asleep. But he heard those wings
of Blacky's and instantly he turned
his head. Then he sailed out into the
air after Blacky. It was lucky for
Blacky that he was so near the big
hemlock tree. You should have seen
him plunge into 1t. Hooty went in
after him, but once in among those
branches Blacky could get about faster
than Hooty could.
After a while Hooty came out and
went back to his former perch. Blacky
waited a while. Then he sneaked out
on the farther side, so as to keep the
hemlock tree between him and Hooty
And how he did use those black wings
OF his! He was getting away from
that place just as fast as he could
He must find some other place tc
sleep.

Struggling
With Fear

"WORRY is thin stream Of fear,

The above quotation Is from Arthur
Somers Roche, whose writings In

popular.
Some one has described worry as
Chronic" fear. We are all affiicted
with fear at times because fear Is
aroused by the emergencies, RESPONSE
bilities and cares Of life. If we are
well mentally and physically we i'm
rnediately use natural methods to rid
us of these fears-studying the situa-
ton carefully, working out in our
minds the common sense and effective
method Of removing this fear, watch
ing our food, exercise and sleep. Thus

Cat Quality
BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE.

I do not want q blooded cat
To soothe me with Its lazy purr.
A cat that's sleek and suave and fat
Is not the cat that prefer.
I like Thomas that climbs trees
And loves meath midnight skies to
roam,
And does not want to spend his ease
Around his owners hearth and
home,
And always makes It very plain
That he regards you with disdain.
And most I like the feline tramp
Which hast any home at all,
But in chill weather makes his camp
Beneath some sheltered garden wall.
You hear him In the shadowy hours
When black and murky Is the night,
While practicing his vocal powers
And daring other cats to fight,
Which all the velvet hours through
The other cats are glad to do.
Angoras, Persians, SiameSe
Do not take part In brawls and
spats;
They sit beside the hearth and wheeze;
They're not at all like alley cats,
Which snatch at meals wherever
found,
And rarelye yer climb a tree:
And in a battle hold their ground
As long as they can stand and see.
They may be rough, but just the same
One must admit that they are game.

How It Started
BY JEAN NEWTON.
Jack.of- All. Trades.

YOU are John Rugby and you are
Jack Rugby" writes Shake
speare, illustrating, though uninten-
tionally, the fact that in the Bard's
day, If not before, "Jack" was farnil-
lar nickname, If not substitute for
John.
From this Elizabethan significance
the name Jack broadened in appica-
ton.
So, originally. "Jack-of all-trades'
simply connoted an individual who was
helpful at anything in general the
inference being that he was not adept
at one thing in particular, the phrase
being used, therefore, in the rather
deprecatory sense Of handy man.
A similar old-time expression, but
one which is not encountered so fire.
quently nowadays, is "Jack-at-a-
pinch" in reference, of course, to
somebody who could take the place OF
another in an emergency.

1t because he wanted to, but because
he felt he could no longer stay in that
big hemlock tree. You see. Terror the
Goshawk and Whitley the Snowy Owl
had chosen to spend much Of their
time so very near that Blacky was
practically a prisoner when they were
about. He didn't dare go or come.
So now he was moving to another part
of the Green Forest. He knew just
where he was going, for Blacky had
lived so long in the Green Forest that
there we're few trees in it with which
he was not familiar. He was heading
for another big hemlock tree some
distance away. He was going to have
q look at it, to be sure that no one
else was there. and that it would be
safe for him to return to that after
noon.
Blacky was flying without paying
special attention to where he was 60
ing. He was constantly looking back
over his shoulder to see if Terror the
Goshawk or Whitley the Snowy Owl
might be persuing him. He was
thinking Of what he was leaving, and
not of what might be ahead, and there
are times when this doesn't do at all
Had Blacky known what was ahead of
him, or rather who was ahead of him,
he would have changed his course en-
tirely.
Now, right near that tree which
Blacky was heading for was a very
tall dead stub. In fact, it was almost
q whole tree. for only the top of it
had blown of. It was for this that
Blacky now headed. for he had mind
to perch on the top of it and look
around. He wanted to make sure that
nobody was watching him.
So Blacky made straight for that
dead tree, and he was just about to
alight on top of it when he made a
terrible discovery. It was terrible to
him, anyway. 1t gave him one Of the

matter for Blacky. For that
- matter, it is for all the little

he didn't have to take anything with

Livestock Feeding
In Middle West
Will Be Reduced

los ANGELES, Sept. 4 - With
the United States corn crop more
than a billion bushels short OF IasC
|vaar and far below normal domestic
requirements, it seems very certain
that there will be considerable
reduction in all livestock feeding
throughout the middle west during
the next season. Undoubtedly TINS
will mean fewer cattle to go into
corn belt feedlots during the tall
season. some reduction in lamp
feeding and a serious deterrent TO
the increase in pork productlon
that had generally been anticipated
Relatively high prices OF all 1eea-
stuffs throughout the country prob
ably will result in slowing down
of livestock feeding unless growers
and fatteners are convinced that
winter and spring fat stock prices
will be such as to assure sorae op-
nortunity of profit. On the other
hand, most livestock feeders will say
that they have never made money
in feeding low priced feeds for the
simple reason that low prices are
generally attended by bountiful sup
plies and correspondingly low prices
for finished stock.

He declared that Arizona is now

years ago state warrants were not
worth the paper they were written
on.
Defending the sales tax he said
that for every dollar of that tax
spent by the state, Arizona has re-
ceived ST 80 from the United States
government for federal works pro-
jects in this state.
He also declared that Moeur has
reduced the state property tax rate
from $1.2O to so cents.
He declared that r G. Stanford

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 4 - The

increase the silver content OF its
money because of the declining price
of silver.
A presidential decree this week
restored to circulation silver coins
demonetized in April, 1885, when the
United States huge silver purchases
pushed the world price so high the
coins brought more than their face

Changes in the monetary laws had
given the Bank of Mexico authority
to issue notes of various denomina-
tions. redeemable at the bank in
silver coins.
One-peso notes, introduced in
1885, will be withdrawn, under the
new decree, and MexicanS must
again carry "cartwheels" or big
silver pesos.
Five-peso notes now in circulation
will be replaced by five-peSo silver
certificates, redeemable as Will be
note issues of the Bank Of Mexi-
co, in siver coin or bar silver at
IL grams per peso.
The silver pesos and fractional
silver currency of the old .720 COT
weight) silver content will be taken
out of the vaults of the bank, where
thev have constituted reserves
against notes. and put back in the
public's hands.
Coins of the new APO content, as
well as bronze 20 and 10-centavo
cons issued in 1885, bronze Seen
tavo pieces, placed n circulation IN
1914 and nickel 5-centavo coins OF
1905 must be surrendered within SIX
months.
The fractional currency of smaller
denominations will be replaced oJ
silver and copper nickel alloy pieces
much smaller, lighter and more Gin
venient.
