Argentina has Instructed her minister In

calling for sat sfactlon for tho torpedoing of
the Argcntlno steamship Toro and tho
promise to cease attacks on Argentine ships.
Pending the receipt of this reply, diplo

rupture Is considered Imminent, the general
opinion being that Clermany will not give
the satisfaction demanded.
The Instructions to Argentina's represen

Argentine note were dispatched when It ap
peared that the ministerial crisis there had
pasted.

TAKING PAINS
My Dears Thero nro mnny times when
It seems to us that the more we take pains
tho worse tho outcome I think this Is
because when wo try ta do our best wo are
so Intent upon getting good results that wo
forget to use our knowledge.
for Instnnce. thcie arc times when I try
my best to get good pictures, nnd with all
my experience I make a failure. Why Is It?
Because I try to take a whole school when
I know that I cannot get good results when
I tako more than thirty or forty.
Does It pay to try to please some one
else when we know that tho result will
not come out correctly? I am asking YOU.
I wnnted to get some pictures of some
young Indies once, nnd when I started to
take their pictures I asked them to remove
their hats, which they did not want to do.
I took the picture, nnywny. and the re
sult was their faces were In the shadow.
Let us take pains, but let us never go
back of what we KNOW by experience.
That Is what experience Is for The lesson

experience the second time. '

STRANGE ADVENTURES
OF BILLY BUMPUS
BILLY COMES TO TOWN
By Farmer Smith
Billy Bumpus was trotting down the road
away from the artillery camp, singing softly
to himself:
1 m fre ! little anat can be,
I m trrn nn little roil can he.
it'll sail awav. nt break of diy.
Where the soldiers can't cot me.
"How different our songs nro when our
hearts nro light," Billy said after ho had
finished his song. "I'm thinking a chango
will do me good. I left the nrmy In time
when I made a good Impression on the
&T rTi
'kr
?
yc
iretieral. I saved his children from burn
ing up I rescued the family, as It were."
Billy trotted along peacefully, looking
this way nnd that. Ho saw tho smoke In
tho dlstanco nnd knew thero must be a
city not far away.
"I tell xou what I want I would like, to
take a good look at a fruit stand when no
one Is around. It Is time I was liavInK
something good to eat. I'm starved!"
Beaching the top of a hill. Billy could see
the city In tho distance nnd he quickened
his step.
Half way down the hill he saw what do
you think? A goat like himself. He was
so de.lghtcd ho ran to tno goat's side as
fast as his jegs would carry him
"Oh, you dear thing!" exclaimed Billy
The other goat raised on Its hind legs
and started to butt Billy.
"Don't, don't ! I'm glad to see you. I'm
Billy Bumpus, from the nrtlllcry. Don't
you know tnc?"
"No-no, can't say I do," replied Billy's
companion.
"What Is your name?" asked Billy en
couragingly. "My name Is Nannie," said tho other
goat.
"Will you stay hero until I come back
from tho city? Then we will go back to
tho artillery together. It's lots of fun living
ln the nrmy." Billy looked at Nannie Goat
coaxlngly.
"I'll do Just ns you say." replied Nannie
"Good-hy." said Billy, going right up and
giving Nannie a smack of her lips. It was
ro sudden she did not havo time to object.
However, she gao a butt as Billy went
away.
"I wish she would stay there until I
como back. I know It would ho much more
fun In the nrmy It I only had company. My,
but It Is hot'"
On down the road trotted Billy, his tall
high In tho air nnd his head erect. By and
by he reached the car track, and then he
knew he was on tho right rond. He fol
lowed the track until ho wns In tho center
of the town, nnd right In front of him he
saw a inrgo fruit stand. A very fat man
was standing over tho fruit, now nnd then
brushing a three-cent apple to make It
look like a five-cent appte.
