Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

No one knew what to make of
Peter Rabbit. The sulks were quite
spelling Peters nature. Never had
he been known to sulk like this be-
fore. Mrs. Peter actually threatened
to leave him. She said she wouldn't
live in the same Briar Patch with
such sulky fellow. His friends who
happened to visit the Old Briar
Patch that afternoon made up their
minds that in the future they would
keep away from there unless Peter
got over the sulks promptly.
But Peter didn't. He not only re-

manned sulky all that afternoon but
he was still sulky the next day. The
trouble with sulkiness is that when
you once get that way it is very hard
to get out of it. Just from think
ing about the same thing over and
over Peter began to imagine things.
He imagined that when his friends
came to see him they merely wanted
to laugh at him because he had been
so badly beaten in the jumping
match with Nimbleheels the Jump
ing Mouse. He imagined that they
were talking about him among
themselves.

Patch until just before time for
jolly, round, red Mr.. Sun to go to
his bed behind the Purple Hills.
And Peter tried to make himself
believe he didn't care. He tried to
make himself believe that he didn't
even want to see anybody again, and
that all he wanted was to be left
wholly alone. OF course, this
wasn't true, for Peter is very social,
as you know.
But he tried to make himself be-

heels himself! Peter could hardly
believe his own eyes. You see,
Nimbleheels was the very last per-
son in the world Peter wanted to
see. Was it not to Nimbleheels that
he owed all his troubles? Anyway,
he felt that it was. So he tried his
best to glare fiercely at his pretty,
trim little visitor.
What If this Is the dear Old
Briar Patch?" demanded Peter
gruffly.

1t was that mention of Hooty that
stopped the sharp reply which was
on the very tip of Peters tongue.
He couldn't send little Nimbleheels,

In this Peter was quite right.
They were talking about him, but
they were not saying the things he
imagined they were. They had
quite forgotten all about the jump
ing match and what they were say

the kind of a fellow they wanted to

The army officers decided that
camels would be vast improvement
over the mules and burros because a
camel could carry greater burdens
than the other animals. Furthermore
camel would forage for himself. The
packer would not have to worry about
carrying grain or other fodder. A
camel could Craze off the willow shoots
found along the streams and the low
shrubs and tree leaves higher UP in
the mountains. Besides this fodder,
there were always the grassy pastures
that supplied the mules and burros.
But the big thing was that a camel
would live off of fodder that a mule
or burro would scorn to touch.

Essay Won Commentator
The essay which Captain Butler
wrote won for him high commenda-
ton. The board of award of the Mill
tary Service institution of the United
States, on the prize essay for 1880,
composed of George w. McCrary, as
of the United States. the then secre-
tary of war; Gen. Joseph E. Johnston,
house of representatives, and Brig.

the number submitted as one of three

Included in the discussions appear
ing in the essay written by Captain
Butler is one relating to the medicine
man who "wields a terrible influence
over the great mass of Indians"
In an excerpt preceding his comment
on the medicine man, Captain Butler
wrote that the institution of chieftain-
ship and the order Of medicine men
were powerful obstacles to the civiliza-

able, he said. that the institution Of
the craftsmanship at the time Of the
writing Of the essay was of compar-

medicine men. he declared, seems to
have existed from time immemorial.
Some Indian tribes declared they had
no chiefs before the white man came
to the American shores. Captain But

that their first chief was suggested by
the British.

Lending Measure, Spon-
sored by Adminisfra-
tion, Is Trimmed
RUNAWAY CONGRESS
IS NOW IN ACTION
Adjournment N dY Take
Place by End of
Week

WASHINGTON, July 31.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt's battered lending
bill bulked large on the Congress-
ional horizon this morning as a
runaway Congress headed into what
is expected to be the last week OF
the current session.
Majority Leader Barley predict
ed that the Senate would vote today
on the lending program whose advo-
Gates were confident of dealing
further blows to the bill before the
final vote is reached.
With Congress in the greatest re-
volt since President Roosevelt took
over the reigns of the government,
it is reported that majority leaders
would have a stiff fight to achieve
their remaining detectives and reach
adjournment by next Saturday.
A struggle over the Senate's APP
proved $500, 100000 huosing bill was
in progress, while amendments to
the Social Security Act were dead
locked in the committee.
Economy Bloc Works
The Senate bipartisan economy
bloc forced an additional $25,000,-
600 reduction to the lending bill
during this afternoon and accepted
by a vote of A to 35 the proposal
of Majority Leader Barley to cut
from $1O0,O00,0OO to $75,000,000 the
proposed new lending authorization
for the Export and Import Bank.
Barley offered the amendment
as a compromise after Senate Taft
demanded the authorization be re-
duced to $25,000000.
This action brought the total of
the lending bill down to one billion
six hundred and fifteen million dol
lars compared to the total of ST.
800,O00,000 when the measure was
first introduced.
Senate leaders hoped for final
action on the bill tonight and the
vote might make it possible for adj
journment by the end OF the week.
The House has not yet considered
the bill.
