Sir Burster's New I'eIIccmnn
SITTING en 11 live burglar Isn't nny
fun. se .Taek and Janet quickly found
when thev jumped upon Mr. Uurglur
after Hebbv Ueuncer bad knocked hlra
eTcr New thnt they htid become smaller
than tlie burglar through eating one of
Mr Pieman's mnglc cookies, they
ceu'Wn't bold the burglar at nil. He
jaulrmcd and twisted under the weight
ll Tort and Janet and Hebby Bouncer.
Then be gave a big hcave that sent Jack
,nd Bebby Bouncer straight up Inte the
"1'eu can't sit en me," reared Mr.
Burglar. He jumped te bis feet, and
odce mere he started after Jack nnJ
i.-nt no If te hurt them.
"Help!" cried Janet, for the burglar
looked very fierce. "Help!" She didn't
knew who was in tlie Mysterious Gar
den te bear her, but ehe quickly found
out There was a sound of clnttcrlng
tin,' and Captain Brave, the toy soldier,
came hurrying up.
Mr. Burglar was about te grab Jack,
but he stepped short when he saw Cap
tain Brnvc.
"Who are you?" reared the burglar.
"I nm Cnntaln Brave, the tin sol-
"ile! he! he! Only n tin soldier,"
laughed the burglar impolitely.
"Be a policeman nnd arrest that
burglar," shouted Jack te Captain
"1'c's, sir," said Captain Brave. He
marched up te the burglar and took him
by the shoulder. "ieu arc unucr nr-
net."
The burglar jerked away, and n wild
leek came In his face. "Ne tin police
man can arrest me," he growled, pull
ing his hidden pi3tel from his shoe.
Baug! The burglar shot right at the
tin soldier. Ping! The bullet dented
the soldier's tin coat, but that was all
the harm it did. Captain Brave just
shrugged his shoulders and reached
ajnln for the burglar. Bang! Bang!
Dane! Bang! The burglar shot all bis
bullets. Ping! Ping! Ping! Ping!
Every bullet hit the tin heldler, but
they enlj dented htm and didn't hurt
him a bit. Thnt was one advantage
Captain Brave had in being n tin boI-dier-peliecinan,
inatend of being a real
soldier-policeman. If be had been real,
he would huve been shot full of holes.
When the burglnr get through shoot sheet
ing Captnln Brave smiled nnd pulled his
sword. "Threw up your hands," he
said te the burglnr. Instead of throw
ing up his hands the burglar turned
and started te run. Captain Brave
promptly jumped forward and jabbed
him In the leg with the sword.
"Ouch" yelled the burglar. "Ouch!
Don't htlck me again nnd I will de
what you want me te de."
"All right," said the tin soldier, but
be kept the point 01 ins Bweru very
dose te the burglar's leg.
"What de you want te de with hlm7
the toy soldier asked Janet.
"I uniit te tnke him before Judge
8entc te be judged nnd made geed," an
swered Janet.
"Very geed, miss," said the tin sol
dier. "Forward, march!"
The burglnr jerked away from the
pointed hwerd nnd stumbled abend of
the tin soldier en the path leading te
the courtroom of Judge Sense.
(Tlie strange way that Judge Sense
Judges the burglar, and the queer sen
tence he passes upon him will be told
tomorrow. )

Mere tlmn 200 Methodist churches

discussed for the new Doneenewes

the new building will be raised during
the coming month.
Mrs. C. V. Blckley presided, nnd ad

Charles S. Ward, of New Yerk, and
Bayard Hedrlck. in charge of the cam

The representatives from the 200

A Braid Trimming
Makes Crepe Smart
Through a Weman s Eyes
By JKAN NEWTON
By CORINNB LOWE
A great many of the crepe dresses
u rlln en riouen just like n typo type
writer. The application of this trim
ming has been various. But the method
most in favor with smart Parislcnnes
during the midsummer has been the
small ribbon ruffles nlmest covering the
frock. This is certainly a relief from
the tuft treatment which has niade se
many dresses nnd wraps resemble one of
the eld-time home-mnde quilts.
At present, however, braid is rivaling
the claims of ribbon as the accomplice
of the omnipresent crcpe model. Either
this or bands of self-material In con
trasting color are found en many of
the most stunning autumn crepe crcu crcu
tlens. Indeed, braid is exploited in
every realm of clothes, a fact demon
strated particularly by some of the new
velvet wraps. These are occasionally
half-covered by row after row of braid.

Honesty Is the Best Policy
Honesty pays nnd nowhere mere than
In the relations between hunband and
wife. Yeu enn feel some of the people
seme of the time, but there Istie reason
In logic or human experience for all the
cant that has been written nnd npeken
en "diplomacy" applied te husbands,
which means "Hew te deceive n hus
band." New, all may or may net be fair In
love, but the fact remains that deceiv
ing one's liiihbnnd docs net pay. It Is
no mere sensible tbnn systematic lying
te nny one else. This is bated en noth
ing mero Idealistic than the fnct thnt
you are sure te be found out. The
pitcher gees te the well ence tee often,
nnd the gullible husband, who hns been
taking it nil in where it wns net worth
thinking about, Is seme day, when you
least expect It, going te sit up nnd
take notice. Then for some inconse
quential thing, seme llttle deception
that may have had no reat-en ether
thnn that you bad gotten into the habit,
all your eJnberatr nntwerk of propa
ganda, all thnt you have gene ngalust
the grain te build up will tumble dewu
like n houue of cards before the ene
thing that counts most that he cannot
trust you.
Men sometimes seem very credible;
they are often blind te tricks nnd ma
chinatiens that even te the most broad bread
minded woman would be patent. It U
simply the innic psychology. Their
minds don't run that way. They nre
tee lazy te bother questioning tilings
that are net of great moment te them.
But make n man the least bit suspi
cious especially where the concern Is
the woman whose veracity he takes for
granted and he Is a vcrltable blood
hound en tbe Kent.
Just because a man if you let him
alone Is net small thnt way, his resent
ment Is all the keener when he dis
covers he has been made a feel of.
Married Ufa Is no exception te the
occasional efficacy of the "whatyeu don't
knew won't hurt you ' theory, nnu tills
is net an arrnignment against the
"dlnlemacv" which nrcvents ene from
Introducing unpleasant tonics or avoid
ing the unprofitable nrguraent; nor is It
n recommendation of the wife who
cobs for n half hour en hubby's shoul
der because she spent ten cents of hin
hnrd-earncd money unneccserilv nnd
couldn't sleep If she didn't tell him
about It. It Isn't even n slnm nt the
wlfe who keeps her husband awny from
sister, because sister can make better
lnyer cake than she docs, but It Is an
uncompromising stand ngainst telling
him thnt you made the layer cake when
sister brought It.
.unny or tne tilings nDeut wnicn n
young wife Is incited te He te her hus
band are se insignificant that had hhe
net brought them up he would never
glve them a thought. And, nnywny,
girls, it doesn't pay for the very prac
tical reason thnt sooner or later you
nre bound te be found out and then,,
though you spend the rest of your lift
trying te make up for it, though you
be a vcrltable mountain of truth, he
will susnect you in the very thing nbeut
which you would never have thought
of fibbing te him he will never believe
you again.

Seventy "fears New
Three generations of American women
have depended en Fruit of the Leem.
The only difference between this standard
fabric new and seventy years age is that
modern methods have made today's quality
even a little better than of old.
But you have one advantage your grand
mother did net have. She could buy
Fruit of the Leem only by the yard or
piece. Yeu can also buy ready -made
garments of Fruit of the Leem.
Fruit of the Leem
Leading manufacturers of articles that
require durable cloth are new using Fruit
of the Leem. Yeu can get reliable brands
of pajamas, nightgowns, sheets, pillow
cases, and men's and boys' shirts, ready
made of Fruit of the Leem. We think tee
much of our label te permit its use except
en well-made goods.
Whether you de your own, sewing or buy
ready-made, be sure te ask for Fruit of the
Leem and leek for the label.
