' In Cleveland they tell a story of a boy who left school to work for a small manufacturer. The boy was dull and his stupidity annoyed his em ployer greatly. So, after a week’s trial, he waa discharged. “Get your pay," said the manufac turer to him on Saturday, “and let that be the last of you. You’re dis charged.” It was, therefore, a great surprise that the manufacturer saw the boy at work In his former place on Mon day morning. ' “What are ybu doing in this shopt’’ demanded the manufacturer angrily. “I discharged you Saturday!” “Yes,” said the boy, “and don’t you do It again. When I told my mother, she licked me.”—New York Times. STOMACH ILLS permanently disappear after drinking the celebrated Shivar Mineral Wa- er. positively guaranteed by money- back offer.

White and yellow NEWSPRINT PRICES ARE NOT WARRANTEJ SENATE COMMITTEE, AFTER IN VESTIGATION, gECOMMENDS, THAT MANUFACTURERS BE PROSECUTED. Washington. June 8.—Holding that scarcity of newsprint paper, which has handicapped American newspapers, to be “more the result of artificial ob structlons than of natural laws,’’ the senate committee which Investigated the paper situation today recommend ed that the department of Justice, in stitute proceedings under the Sber man and Clayton acts against prip} paper manufacturers. Manufacturers were charged by the committee with “unjust, illegal and discriminatory’’ practices. Present prices for newsprint paper were held by the committee to be “excessive and unwarranted.” DON’T TICKLE THE 0ELLIS1 * Happening at Datroit Shows the Un wisdom of 'That Particular Form of Playfulnaaa. One should never tickle a cello play er In the fibs, especially If he. is a fa mous one such as Phillip Abbas of the Detroit Symphony orchestra, remarks the Detroit News in a recent Issue. Graham Harris, second violinist, did, and It almost cost him a lot of trou ble, to say nothing of a new violin bow. The story came out when Harris filed a suit for $100 In justice cour| against Abbas. It was a story of tem perament and temper and the trouble arose at rehgafsaj. Ossip Gabrilo- , wltsch, director, was away for a few minutes, and the temperamental ones Indulged In a few moments of plny- , hoy, not music. Harris reached his Flowers. To dream of picking flowers slgnl- flea future fortune., Of holding, seeing or smelling them In season means pleasure, hut if out of season, ob stacles and lack of success. If the flowers are - wldte the obstacles will be less; If yellow, they will be pain ful, and-lf red, they foretell the dream er's serious illness. If you dream ot being bedecked with flowers it means a short happiness Is coming to you.

No Imitations for Her. • A young physician took his best girl to a local picture house. Advertise- menrs were being thrown on the screen, among,them this one: “Make them happy with a photograph of your self at Christinas.

Establishment of a rate of one cent a pound on sheet print paper to any part of the county when sent by pa rcel post without Increasing the pres ent limit of 70. pounds provided under the postal regulations. The committee also recommended that 'consideration be given by the government to the establishment of a newsprint paper mill to supply the government’s needs with any surplus paper to be sold to small consumers. Cats and Diphtheria. “It is a widely accepted belief that cats may suffer from diphtheria and convey the infection to human beings,” says the Journal of the American Medical association in recounting the experiments by which Doctor Savage proved that tMs Is entirely without foundation. Doctor Savage planted vast numbers of diphtheria bacilli in the noses and throats of kittens, but In no instance did these take the disease, gnd within 24 hours the bacilli were d£ad. Doc tor Savage reviewed all the evidence in connection with epidemics of diph theria rjt j bn me to the conclusion that so far as it implicates catq, it is quit* valueless. He got the men together, scoL'ed, fumed, argued, coaxed and at last won They shook hsitfl*. The flam- age was-settled. And harmony of both sorts reigned. RETURNING TO SAVAGE DAYS?

"Tour narrative is too highly col ored.” remarked the editor, returning, the bulky manuscript. “In what way?” Inquired the disappointed author.

Glimpses of present fashions and views of some shop windows lead to the Impression that the world Is, after all ns some commentators say, revert ing to the savage, remarks the New York Evening Sun. Women are wearing more and more, feathers in their hair and more and more large and ornate Jewelry upon their hands and In their ears. Men are showing a decided Inclination to orna ment themselves to the limit of their purses in these days of the high cost of clothes, and altogether anthropologists tell ns It Is not such a very far cry from the adornments of present-day civilization to that of the Nearanthaler man or the Garden of Eden Itself. The fashions of last winter showed a predilection Joward furs such as the worljl has never seen since the days when they were worn raw.

Rouge Withers Greek Girls. Although most Greek girls are nat urally very pretty, they begin fo paint and powder from a very early age— the cheeks bright red, the eyebrows and lashes deepest black, and veins delicately blue. ' The result Is that they are withered old women at forty, and thus nowhere are uglier females .to be found than beneath the blue skies of this classic land.
