""Mil - Indian Legend a Good for Bedtime Stories One of the dhariua of Indlauj mytha about aulmuls is that they explain tti? uoexplalnublo so plausibly. How did the flying squirrel get Hit (lying ap paratus? Instead of going Into lengthy explanations the Seneca* relate that there was a time long ago wheu ud hunts and birds wore very large uatt tree# uiore lofty and rivers broader than nowadays. On ono occasion a squirrel, which bud been hoarding nut* against tbe winter, found bis store being steadily robbed. For m long tnue be could not discover tbe culprit, but finally found tbat a woodchnck and a giant bullfrog wltb teeth had been stealing his nut*. The culprits were haled before tbe great chief of all tbe aqulrrela and brought to judgment. By way of sen tence tbe woodchuck was ordered to have bla tall removed In order to hum ble his pride, snd tbe bullfrog to havo bis teeth taken out so that he would no longer be tempted to steal anoth er's store. Hut the aqulrrel waa also blamed for carelessness in building IiIr nest so low that other anlaaala might resell It. He was therefore or dered to nest In the high trees and by way- of compensation was given a blanket to stretch between bla leg* so that he might sail through the air Uke a leaf. A wolf snapped off the woodclruck'a tall Hnd a heron picked out the bull frog's teeth, and thenceforth all wood cbuckfe were tailless snd bullfrogs toothless, and the former feared the wolf mightily and tbe latter hid -at the sight of the heron. Tlie Mjulrrel'e descendants, however, had blunkets. and that Is why they fall around from limb to limb so readily. Of such stuff are many Indian tales made. Here are bedtime stories of Infinitely greater worth than many of the modern children's yarns. There Is room for a volume of real American fairy tales. ? New York Times. Penalty of Penury "It doesn't pay' to bis close-fluted when you're running for office." says a prominent middle-western politician. "One time a tightwad down In our county decided to run 'for tbe legisla ture. Ills friends urged him to spend a little money, hut he consistently re fused up to the night before election. When he gave in to the extent of buying and distributing a bale or so of the^, cheapest cigars he could find poisonous ropes, all of them. Elec tion morning he sauntered down to the polls to see how things were going, lie was met by a group of his workers. " 'Well, boys,* said he, 'am I win nln' or losln'?' " 'Your gone,' replied one of the workers mournfully. "'What's the 'mutter? asked the candidate.

New York's most recent experiment in the field of vocational education, saya School Life. Minors between fourteen and eighteen, not high school gradu ates and not in attendance upon tbe regular full-time schools, must attend such schools for not less than four days between 8 a. m. and & p. m.
