10 i' ' ' Cole Announces New All-Season Models V ' In announcing its new all-season , cars, the Cole Motor Car Company presents a series of automobiles which afford distinctly new advantages in enclosed car design. They are a marked improvement over the conventional types of the past and give to the enclosed equipage char acteristics which formerly were asso ciated only with cars of the open type. There are six models in the line of Cole Aero-Eight all-season cars the Sportsedan, the Sportcoupe, the Tourse dan, the Tourosine and the Towncar. The obvious newness of these six cars, which more than substantiate Cole's reputation for building automo biles which are a bit ahead of the times, is revealed in the flush panel construction employed throughout. This eliminates the overhanging of the superstructure, adds strength to the design of the cars, eliminates perma ' nently many of the inherent limitations of enclosed car use and introduces a new beauty of line that is instantly appreciated. In appointments, the new Aero-Eight all-season cars are a decided departure byway of completeness. Automatic window regulators are used throughout, i and so cleverly are the glass panels installed that they may be dropped down into the lower body panels and the cars thrown almost completely open ' for summer driving. Other refinements' are numerous. The upholstery is in! mohair velvet and in every case is ofj , a color to harmonize with the exterior >■ finish of the car. " .

She had been dreaming that she was back in Kansas again, and playing in the old barn yard with the calves and pigs and chickens all around her; and at first, as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes, she really imagined she was there. "Kut-kut-kut, ka-daw-kut! Kut-kut kut, da-daw-kua!" Ah ; here gain was the strange noise that had awakened her. Surely It was | a hen cackling! But her wide-open eyes first saw, through the slats of the coop, the blue waves of the ocean, now calm and placid, and her thoughts flew back to the past night, so full of danger and discomfort. Also she be gan to remember that she was a waif of the storm, adrift upon a treacherous and unknown sea. "Kut-kut-kut, ka-daw-w-w —kut!" "What's that?" cried Dorothy, start ing to her feet. "Why, I've just alid an egg. that's all." replied a small, but sharp and distinct voice, and looking around her the small girl discovered a yellow hen squatting in the opposite corner of the coop. "Dear me!" she exclaimed, in sur prise ; "have you been here all night, too ?" "Of course." answered the hen, flut tering her wings and yawning. "When the coop blew away from the ship I clung fast to this corner, with claws and beak, for I know If I fell into the water I'd surely be drowned. Indeed, I nearly drowned, as it was, with all that water splashing over me. I never was so wet before in my life 1" "Yes," agreed Dorothy, "it was pretty wet, for a time, I know. But do you feel comfortable now?" "Not very. The sun has helped to dry my feathers, as It has your dress, and I feel better since I laid my morn ing egg. But what's to become of us, I should like to know, afloat on this big pond?" "I'd like to know that, too,' said Dorothy. "But, tell me; how does it happen that you are able to talk? I thought hens could only cluk and cackle.' "Why, as for that," answered the yel low hen thoughtfully, "I've clucked and cackled all my life, and never spoken a word before this morning, that I can remember. But when you asked a ques tion, a minute ago, it seemed the most natural thing in the world to answer you. So I spoke, and I seem to keep on speaking, just as you and other hu man beings do. Strange, isn't it?" "Very,' replied Dorothy. "If we were in the Land of Oz, I wouldn't think it so queer, because many of the animals can talk in that fairy coun try. But out here in the ocean must be a good long way from Oz." "How is my grammar?" asked the yellow hen, anxiously. "Do I speak quite properly, in your judgment?' "Yes." said Dorothy, "you do very well, for a beginner.' "Im glad to know that,' continued the yellow hen, in a confidential tone; "because, if one is going to talk, it's best to talk correctly. The red rooster has often said that my cluck and my cackle were quite perfect; and now it's a comfort to know I am talking prop erly." "Im beginning to get hungry," re marked Dorothy. "It's breakfast time but there's no breakfast." "You may have my egg,' said the yel low hen. "I don't care for it, you know." "Dont you want to hatch it?" asked the little girls, in surprise. "No, indeed; I never care to hatch eggs unless I've a nice snug nest, in some quiet place, with a baker's dozen of eggs under me. That's thirteen, you know, and it's a lucky number for hens. So you may as well eat this egg." "Oh. I couldn't poss'bly eat It, un less it was cooked." exclaimed Dor othy. "But I'm much obliged for your kindness, just the same." Hon t mention it, my dear," answer ed the hen. calmly, and began pruning her feathers. For a moment Dorothy stood looking out over the wide sea. She was still thinking of the egg, though; so pres ently she asked : "\Vhy do you lay eggs, when you don't expect to hatch them?" "Jt's a habit I have," replied the yel low hen. "It has always been my pride to lay a fresh egg every morning, ex cept when I'm moulting. I never feel like having many morning cackle till the egg is properly laid, and without the chance to cackle I would not be happy." "It's strange," said the girl, reflec tively ; "But as I'm not a hen I can't be 'spected to understand that." "Certainly not, my dear." Then Dorothy fell silent again. The yellow hen was some company, and a bit of comfort, too ; but it was dread- Denounces Conviction oi American Missionary Tokto, June 28. —The arrest and conviction of the Rev. E. M.

BJLRRISBimO TELESKXPH The Yellow Hen fully lonely out on the big ocean, nev ertheless. After a time the hen flew up and, perched upon the topmost slat of the! coop, which was a little above Dorothys head when she was sitting upon the bottom, as she had been doing for some moments past. "Why, wo are not far from land!" exclaimed the hen. "Where? Where is it?" cried Dor othy. jur.-.plng up in great excitement. Over there a little way," answered the hen, nodding her head in a cer tain direction. "We seem to be drift lng toward it, so that before noon we ought to find ourselves upon dry land again." j.■ ' S ' "How Dreadful!" Exclaimed Dorothy "I shall like that!" said Dorothy, witli a little sigh, for her feet and legs were still wetted now and then by the sea-water that came through the open slats. "So shall I," answered her compan ion. "There is nothing in the world so miserable as a wet hen." The land, which they seemed to be rapidly approaching, since it grew more distinct every minute, was quite beau toful as viewed by the little girl in the floating hen-coop. Next to the water was a broad beach of white sand and gravel, and farther back were several rocky hills, while belond these appear ed a strip of green trees that marked the edge of a forest. But there were no houses to be seen, nor any sign of people who might inhabit this unknown land. "I hope we shall find something to eat," said Dorothy, looking eagerly at the pretty beach toward which they drifted. "It's long past breakfast time, now.". "I'm a trifle hungry, myself," de clared the yellow hen. "Why don't you eat the egg?" asked the child. "You don't need to have your food cooked, as I do." "Do you take me for a cannibal?" cried the hen, indignantly. "I do not know what I have said or done that leads you to insult me!" "I beg your pardon, I'm sure, Mrs.— Mrs. —by the way, may I inquire your name, ma'am?" asked the little girl. "My name is Bill," said the yellow hen, somewhat gruffly. "Bill; Why, that's a boy's name." "What difference does that make?" "You're a lady hen, aren't you?" "Of. course. But when I was first hatched out no one could tell whether I was going to be a hen or a rooster; so the little boy at the farm where I was bom called me Bill, and made a pet of me because I was the only yel low chicken in the whole brood. When I grew up, and the found that I didn't crow and fight, as all the roosters did. he did not think to change my name, and every creature in the barn-yard, as well as the people in the house, knew me as 'Bill.' So Bill I've always Senate Approves Increasing Funds to Shipping Board Washington, June 28.—Increase in the Shipping Board fund from $276,- 000,000 to $491,000,000 for completion of the government's authorised ship building program was approved by the Senate wifh but one dissenting vote at a late session last night, held in an effort to pass the sundry civil appropriation bill. , a been called, and Bill Is my name." "But it's all wrong, you know." de | clared Dorothy, earnestly; "and if you i don't mind, I shall call you 'Billina.' I Putting the 'eena' on the end makes it i a girl's name, you see." | "Oh, I don't mind it in the least," | returned the yellow hen. "It doesn't matter at all what you call me, so long as I know the name means me." "Very well, Billina. My name is Dorothy Gaie—just Dorothy to my friends and Miss Gale to strangers. You way call me Dorothy, if you like. We're getting very near the shore. Do you suppose it is too deep for me to wade the rest of the way?!' "Wait a few minutes longer. The sunshine is warm and pleasant, and we are in no hurry." "But my feet are all wet and soggy," said the girl, "My dress is dry enough, but I won't feel real comfor'able till I get my feet dried." She waited, however, as the hen ad vised, and before long the big wooden coop grated gently on the sandy beach and the dangerous voyage was over. It did not take the castaways long to reach the shore, you may be sure. The yellow hen flew to the sands at once, but Dorothy had to climb over the high slats. Still, for a country girl, that was not much of a feat, and as soon as she was safe ashore Dorothy drew off her wet shoes and stockings and spread them upon the sun-warmed beach to dry. Then she sat down and watched Billina, who was pick-peeking away with her sharp bill in the sand and gravel which she scratched up and turned over with her strong claws. "What are you doing?" asked Dor othy. "Getting my breakfast, of course," murmured the hen, busily peeking away. "What do you find?" inquired the girl, curiously. "Oh, some fat red ants, and some sand-bugs .and once in a while a tiny crab. They are very sweet and nice, I assure you." "How dreadful!" exclaimed Dor othy, in a shocked voice. "What is dreadful?" asked the hen, lifting her head to gaze with one bright eye at her companion. "Why, eating live things, and horrid bugs, and crawly ants. You ought to be 'shatned of yourself!" "Goodness me!" returned the hen, in a puzzled tone; "how queer you are, Dorothy ! Live things are much fresher and more wholesome than dead ones, and you humans eat all sorts of even chickens." "But we cook 'em," said Dorothy. "You do, indeed," answered Billina. "V ou eat lambs and sheep and cows and pigs and even chickens."

"I can't just 'splaln the diff'rence, but it's there. And, anyhow, we never eat such dreadful things as bugs." "But you eat the chickens that eat the bugs," retorted the yellow hen, with an odd cackle. "So you are just as bad as we chickens are." This made Dorothy thoughtful. What Billina said was true enough, and it almost took away her appeitite for breakfast. As for the yellow hen, she continued to peek away at the sand busily, and seemed quite contented with her bill-of-fare. Finally, down near the water's edge, Billina stuck her bill deep into the sand, and then drew back and shiv ered. "Ow!" she cried. "I struck metal, that time, and it nearly broke my i beak." "It prob'bly was a rock," said Dor othy, carelessly. "Nonsense, I know a rock from metal, I guess," said the hen. "There's a different feel to it." "But there couldn't be any metal on this wild, deserted seashore," per sisted the girl. "Where's the place? I'll dig it up, and prove to you I'm right." Billina showed her the place where she had "stubbed her bill," as she ex pressed it, and Dorothy dug away the sand until she felt something hard. Then, thrusting in her hand, she pulled the thing out, and discovered it to be a large sized golden key—rather old, but still bright and of perfect shape. "What did I tell you? cried the hen, with a cackle of triumph. "Can I tell metal when I bump into it, or is the thing a rock?" "It's metal, sure enough," answered the child, gazing thoughtfully at the curious thing she had found. "I think CORD TIRES I GOODRICH ] and GOODYEAR We have all sizes. Let us supply your needs.
