Th6 keg Is a. short dozen steps from the cabinet that In years' pust held bottles of liquid 'lightning, sparkling glasses and cubes of ice that were so welcome when Councils' kitchen wns used for the concoction of delectable lunches, with appropriate vet goods for dressing.

"Whool" said the owl. "You," of course. "Whoo?" reiterated the bird. Smith cut tho argument short by bringing the owl Into the saloon. Pinned to Its foot was the ace of hearts. Scrawled around tho ace were the words: "The bird of evil, Prohibition I July 1, 1010." Below these words were a skull ond crossbones.
