The Dougherty cottage, on Washington itreet, Is qu'to a landmark, and Mrs. Btovell, tho lato Mr. Dougherty's daugh ter Is so generous about keeping open bouae that when she- did not go down last summer sho was terribly missed and things didn't seem tiulto tho name. Of course, every ono goes to tho movies, jfi about tho groatest excitement at Cape May, barring tho COO members of tie Coast Reserves thero this year, where formerly no man was seen from Monday to Friday. I saw Alva Sergeant last Saturday Bight at tho movies, with her friend Mar. f&retta. Benson, who Is staying with hor. JUva, by tho way, is a "motor messen ger," but as Capo May demands a Jersey Hcense sho had to trip over to Capo May Court House and pass an examination, which, Incidentally, every ono greatly dreads. Howovor, sho faced the music all right Of course, thero Is always something , for some ono to kick up a fuss about. Mast year It was tho music at tho Bed MUU which, Incidentally, opens on tho great and glorious Fourth, with Mr. John on and his dandy orchestra. Tho cot tagers nearby complained that they could not sleep for tho "big bass drum," even though tho music stopped promptly at 11 o'clock every night. And this year It's tho now concrcto pier, which Is qulto good looking of Its kind. But alack and alas, haven't they put It up almost directly ln front of Sadlo Davis's young hotel, and sho doesn't like . , It, but It does not seem to have hurt ln the way of boarders, as' sho has most of her rooms engaged up to Octobor.

Still, Mrs. Dougherty loves brldgo i i and Marlon loves tennis and golf, and '. there Is plenty of that kind of dissipation In Capo May. Sneaking of dissipation, did you, know It Is , Government offense, subject to a beavy flno or Jail, or both, to offer a ' I drink to a man In uniform? I wonder i' what on earth will happen to tho cock- i tall parties that aro goncrally given over ' every Sunday. That certainly will put ome parties out of business, as thero re so many officers here.

And, "my dear, she's getting too fat to run with any pop. I certainly would start in to diet." "I wonder why she wears that band around her hair, now?" and "Eleanor Sears, of course, knows what's becoming, besides knowing how and when to hit the ball." Generally this typo goes on knitting and finally asks an irato neighbor what tho scoro is and "Who's ahfad?" They re all thero every day, and they're not so bad after all. , M R. AND MRS. JOSEPH B.

YE FYSHYNGB SEASON OPENETII THE GRIZZLY KING By JAMES OLIVER CURWOOD Tho Author of "Kazan" CHAl'TUR XVIH (Continued) AFTER killing his la-it dog at dukof that . fntnl day when they had pursued him over tho mountain Thor had dono Just what Bruco thought tho ho would do, and In stead of continuing southward had mado a wider detour toward tho north, and tho third night after tho fight and tho loss of Muskwn ho found Iskwao ngnin. In tho twilight of that samo evening Plpoonaskoos had died, nnd Thor had heard tho sharp cracking of Bruco's automatic. All that night nnd tho na day and tho night that followed ho spent with Iskwno, and then ho left her onco more. A third tlmo ho was seeking, her when ho found Langdon ln tho trap on tho ledge, and ho had not yet got wind of her when ho first heard tho baying of tho dogs on his trail. Ho was traveling southward, which brought him nearer tho hunters' camp. Ho was keeping to tho high slopes where thero wero little dips aim uic.iuows, nroKun uy patches of shale, deep coulees, nnd occasion ally wild upheavals of rock He was keep ing the wind straight ahead so that ho would not fall to catch the smell of Iskwao when ho enmo near her, and with tho baying of the dogs ho caught no scent of tho pur suing bensts, or of tho two men who wcro riding behind them. At another tlmo he would havo played his favorite trick of detourlng so that the danger would bo nhcad of him, with tho wind ln his faor. Cnutlon had now become secondary to his desire to find his mnto. Tho dogs wero less than half a mllo away when ho stopped suddenly, sniffed tho air for n moment and then went on swiftly until ho was halted by a narrow ravine. Up that ravlno Iskwao was coming from a dip lower down tho mountain, nnd she was running. Tho yelping of tho pack was flerco and closo when Thor fccrambled down In tlmo to meet her ns sho rushed upward. Iskwao paused for a alnglo moment, smelled noses with Thor. and then wont on, her ears laid back fiat and sullen and her throat filled with growling menace Thor followed her, and ho also growled. Ha know thnt his mato was fleeing from tho dogs, and again that deadly and hlowly Increasing wrath swept through him as he climbed after her higher up tho mounta'n. In such an hour ns. this Thor was at his worst. Ho was a fighter when pursued as tho dogs had pursued him a woeX , 'ore but ho was a demon, terrlblo and without mercy, when danger threatened his mate Tin fell farther and farther bel.lnd Isk wao. and twice he turned, his fnngs gleam ing under drawn lips and his defiance roll ing back upon his enemies In low thunder. When ho camo up out of tho couleo ho was ln tho shadow of tho peak, and Iskwno had already dlsappenieil ln her skywaid scramble Where sho had gono was a w lid chaos of rock-slldo nnd the plled-up debris of fallen nnd shattered masses of sanCjtone crag Tho skyllno wns not moro than 300 yards abovo him Ho looked up. Iskwao was among tho rocks nnd here was tho placo to fight Tho dogs wero closo upon him now. They were coming up tho last stretch of tho coulee, baying loudly. Thor turned about and waited for them. Half a mile to tho south, looking through his glasses. Langdon saw Thor. nnd nt al most tho same Instant the dogs appeared over tho edgo of tho coulee. Ho had ridden halfway up the mountain; from that point he had climbed higher and was following a well-beaten sheep trail at about tho same altitude as Thor From whero ho stood the valley lay under his glasses for miles Ho did not havo far to look to discover Bruco and the Indian They were dismounting at the foot of the coulee, and as ho gazed they ran quick ly into It and disappeared Again Langdon swung back to Thor. The dogs were holding him now, and he knew there was no chance of tho grizzly killing them in that open spaco. Then he saw movement among tho rocks higher up. and a low cry of understanding broke from his lips as he made out Iskwao climb ing steadily toward tho ragged peak Ho knew that this second bear was a female. The big grizzly her mato had stopped to fight. And thcro was no hope for him If the dogs succeeded In holding him for a matter of ten or fifteen minutes. Bruce and Metoosln would appear In that time over tho rim of tho coulee at a range of less than n hundred yards I Langdon thrust his binoculars In their case and started at a run along tho sheep trail. For two hundred yards his prog ress 'was easy, and then the patch broke in n. thousand individual tracks on a slope of soft and slippery shale, and it took him five minutes to mako tho next fifty yards. The trail hardened again. He ran on nantlngly, and for another five minutes the shoulder of a ridge hid Thor and tho dogs from him. When he came over that ridge and ran fifty yards, down the farther side of It, he stopped short Further prog ress was barred by a steep ravine. He was five hundred yards from where Thor stood with his back to the rocks and his huge head to the pack. Even as he looked, struggling to get breath enough to shout, Langdon expected to see Bruce and Metoosln appear out of the coulee It flashed upon him then that even if he could make them hear it would' be Impossioie ior mem to understand mm, w 3rt4 "Wc- v,-lJ ynute fo OLDE DAYS spiro the beast they had been hunting for nlmost two weeks. Thor had rushed tho dogs a full twenty vanls toward tho couleo when Langdon dropped quickly behind n rock. Thero was only one waj of saving him now, If ho was not too late. Tho pack had retreated a few yards down tho slope, nnd ho aimed nt tho pack. Ono thought only filled his brain ho must sacrifice his dogs or let Thor die. And that day Thor had given him his llfot Thero was no hesitation ns ho pressed tho trigger. It wns a long shot, and tho first bullet tluew up a cloud of dust fifty feet short of tho Airedales. Ho flr,ed again, nnd missed. The third tlmo his rlllo cracked thero nnswercd it a sharp yelp of pain which Langdon him self did not hear. Ono of the dogs rolled over nnd over down tho slope.

Tvt4, nnarqi think it Is a cood Idea once in a while to stop and ask ourselves, WHAT GOOD WILL IT DO? Really and truly, GOOD and TRUTH are all thero Is In this world. We want to do good We want to do ALL the good there Is to do No half-way will be enough. Wo can't say, "I will do part of this work as It should be done and the rest as shlpshod as possible." Do you remember hearing of tho young wlfo who said to her husband: "I have baked you a cake. If you like It, I will follow the recipe next time !" First of all, 'will it help ME If I do it? Second, will It help some one else? It is a very comforting thought that we all want to do what Is right Those who do what Is wrong merely do so because their energy has been misdirected. Pcr hans they did not THINK They did not use foresight FORESIGHT I wish you would remember that word. It means that you must stop and think You always look both ways when crossing a railroad track why not use the samo PRECAUTION when doing other things? Will you not try to find tho GOOD In EVERYTHING? You will please your loving editor, FARMER SMITH. STRANGE ADVENTURES OF BILLY BTOIPUS JOCCO By Farmer Smith "Have you been over to the fort yet?" asked Jocco, tho Monkey, of Billy one morning. "I'm too busy to go anywhere Just now. You do not seem to realize that I am the mascot of the artillery and that you are merely tho trouble maker," replied Billy. "Oh ! I don't about that you have made some trouble yourself," answered the Monkey. "What have I done that I should not have dono and what Is there for me to do that I ought to do?" nsked Billy. "You aro too deep for me." said Jocco "I don't pretend to be what I am not. Y'ou nro always trying to be what you are not " "Do you think I ought to be a monkey when I am only a goat? I think a whole lot of myself, the same as you think a whole lot of yourself, only I am not ashamed to say so and you are. Seo?" Jocco looked all around. "See what?" ha asked "Seo the point," replied Billy. "You mean the point of the remark? I hoar you, but you mako too much noise for me, I want to go to sleep. Go out and trip up on some moro strings and set Bome moro cannon off ," Jocco winked at Billy. "How did you hear about my setting off that cannon?" asked Billy. "There nre lots and lots of things going on around hero, but I hear of them all Don't bo curious. It will hurt you. Did you over try to eat a cannon ball?" "From the way you talk one would think that thoro Is nothing to me except my appe tlte and that Is where you aro mistaken. I have a soul." Billy looked very wise. "You better look out there Is something In tho air I feel that you had better look out," said Jocco, climbing up over tho window out of Billy's reach. When Billy saw that Jocco was out of his roach, he lay down to think over what there was he could do to make the monkey let him nlone. Tho little fellow had done nothing to Billy, but he thought there was a chance of having a rival for honors at mascot, and so Billy began to think what was to be done. His thinking finished, he went out doors. He had not gone far when he thought o a grand Idea. He would see what one of the horses thought about It. He trotted along until he came to one of the horses which drew one of the ammunition wagons. "Good morning," began Billy, bending utry 'ow. "Look out! Don't poke a hole In tho Muth," said the Horse. "Never mind. 1 want to get even with that monkey back ln the house. Have TOU anythlg to suggest?" "Why don't you take one of the cart ridges out of the box and put It In his bed?" asked the Horse. "Not a bad Idea, but how can I carry one of those big cartridges? I'm not a monkey."dp "Hold It between your horns. I will help you get It there." replied the Horse. It was not long before the cartridge was fast between Billy's horns and he started eft for the house. He had not gone very fur when who should come along but the general himself.
