IN THE LIGHT OF E.XPE.RIENCE Bobby, waiting to walk to the cor ner of the ball with hla father aa he did every morning, decided at laat not to wait tor the end of the discussion that seemed somehow to concern htm. 80 he stole out of the half-open front door of the big apartment building. The argument went on In hla absence. "I don't see why you bare the coun try craze again," Bobby's mother said, "I dont want to give up this comfort able flat and all my social affairs to bury myself In the woods." "It isn't the woods!" Bobby's father said, tm Miently. "But, of course, If you won't, that's all there Is to It. We can get the house cheap now and Bobby need a place to play. The poor little chap looks like a celery plant already." Bobbyl Where was the boyf "Come on," Bobby's father aatd, for getting his grievance. "Well find him out in the hall. He love those red-and-white tiles." Out in the hall a door opened and a woman In a gorgeous kimono stooped to pick up the morning paper. "You are looking for your chlldf b)'.o asked, coldly, "tie was here a little while ago, but he persisted In waking my baby by singing, and I uilU uloi to run away." "He is so tiny!" cried the culprit's mother. "The smaller the boy the bigger the noise! You might ask the elevator boy." bobby's father rang the elevator boil. ' Why, yps, sir, I seen him awhile ago," 1 the elevator boy aald. "He wanted to know would I play tiger and I 'told hlin to go to hla ma. You might abk the janitor." - "Why, sure, the little feller was here," the janitor sold. "'Twae sor ry I was to tell him not to play ou tho' stairs, but there's so many to complutn, sor, and noiBes echoes a lot.' You molght ask the young lady In the o:tlss, sor." The young woman had noticed him, he looked so pretty in his khaki, and she had told him to ran out In the co'irtyard because she could not hear what people said over the 'phone when he sang so loud. They, might ar-k the downstairs janitor. The 'downstairs janitor looked up from the stepa he was washing. "Ach, pa, I haf caw your boy, yet," be said. "He vas digging boloa in meln court und I send htm avay mit hollering at him. He Is run oudt In der street yet" "in the road! Oh, Tom!" Bobby's mother was very wbtte and tense lines showed about his father's mouth. Bobby was so tiny to I be alone In sucb a wide, rushing worldl They walked far, looking tor a police man, and finally found one on their return. Bobby's mother seised .him by the arm, eagerly. 'Ob, Where's Bobby T" she cried. "You have seen my little boy, haven't you? In a khaki suit? I told him never " "Sure, I seen him some time gone. He was after playing ball with stones In the road, and I aays for him to play on the walk. I saya, for fear o' oltermobiies. There's so many av thim now." "Where did he go then?" asked Bobby's father. ' "You didn't let him o far, surelyT" "An" why, not?" the officer said, ooly.. "I was tbinkin' he lived near by an' be wasn't cryin'. It's orders to .top the little wans what's cryin'. Be sides, the ledd; took him along." Bobby's mother sank on a horse block. ' What lady?" she , whispered. "A titiuapper! I know It' was 1" "Where Is the station?" said Bob jy s father. - It was a mile away, so they took the car, totally oblivious of the curt jus stares of tbelr fellow passengers, .ho acted as If they thought them jt.ves in the company of two escaped .uratlcs. Their leaving at the sta tion corner did not put them any high er in the public's esteem. The desk sergeant was kind, but he igked innumerable questions of the two crated persons who presented themselves before htm hatless and .oiulesa. in spite of the cold 'wind. Alter an Interminable time the. desk .ergeant decided to send for the ma tron. Bobby's mother sank Into the chair which a policeman brought for her. f be desk sergeant had been out and ao did not know whether the lost boy had been claimed yet or not. Some officers playing checkers did jot so much as raise tbelr eyes to :00k at the distracted parents, and Joliby's mother felt they could not bit be businesslike and heartless In ,u:h a big, gray atone building. She Celt crushed and humbled and did not look up when the matron came In. Then suddenly there was a cry of Mi:uder!" Tired, dirty l)ttle Bobby .ay iu her arms, safe and whole, I'lusblng his tear-stained face against her cheek and aobbing softly. The station was very still for a full minute, and theu one of the checker players blew hia nose. "It's yo-jr move, Connor," he said, .sharply. "We ain't got all day to wait for you." Dobuy'a father, who had been look ing out of the window, turned about with suspiciously red eyes. "We're grimily obliged to you. gen tlemeu," he said. "As soon as we can get ready," said Bobby's mother, chokingly, "I think we'd better go look at that bouse In tbe country, dear." Of Course.

"Do you mean to tell me you are going to permit me to report to Washington that you will not take the book??" "I don't care a continental what yon report to Washington," replied the merchant, as he turned to wait on a customer, "but don't tell Taft about It" Oil City Bllr.sard. SAFE BET.

Here Is the story of a small boy, mother and a barrel of apples, and 1 moral which does not bave to be told In words: The windows of an orphan asylum overlooked the back yard of tbe house where the boy, tbe barrel of apples and the boy's mother lived. Now, the apples that were In the barrel dis appeared at a famous rate, and tbe mother, being a' knowing woman as a matter of course, made Inquiry of her son. Yes, he bad eaten the apples; but, "Mamma," he said, "I have to; the orphans want so many cores." Philosophically. A laborer had worked all day pat ting In several tons of coal. For his day's hard work he received two dol lars. His wsy home ted him by the open door of a saloon. Inside be heard the maglo rattle of the dice. A crap game was In progress. Getting bold of the bones the labor er placed a dollar on the table and "rolled."

But there' is this fundamental dif ference between the craving for sugar and that for "sours," acids, vinegar, pickles, etc, alcohol, and for other keea flavors and highly attractive lux uries, that It Is a real food, of very high food-value and very promptly and readily absorbable, which none of the others are, except In small de gree. As we have seen, this vlolen' craving for sugar, leading ..to excess largely disappears In children when their healthy demand for It Is sup plied by a proper mixture with their foods; while no child yet has ever In herited or been bora with a taste for alcohol, pickles, tea, coffee or tobac co. Success Magaxtne. Patron Saint of Aviators. It has been stated that the Vatican had been approached with the view of selecting a patron saint for avia tors, and ti it had been suggested that Elijah would be an appropriate person. The originator of the s'ory seems to have not taken Into account that Elijah was an Old Testamen' character, and as such would be Ineli gible. No doubt, going to heaves in a chariot of fire would have made Elijah an appropriate patron. A Paris contemporary suggests that Sa'nte Colombe should be chosen. Her name alone bas much to recommend ber. She suffered martyrdom at Bens under Marcus Aureliua. London Globe. A Kick for Consistency. Tbe commuter with a grievance pened the door of the General Pas senger Agent's department puMcl aside the boy at the railing, and atel't ed up to the Chief Clerk's desk and relieved himself as follows: "Maybe I have so kick coming when I go to the station on time every morning for six weeks to catch the 1.08 train, only to find It from Ave to ten minutes late.

There in the mutty shadows LI iliby sat on the gravel and stered at the outside sunshine through the crevices of the lattice work that Inclosed the house foundations. Above him he heard hla mother and the rest actu ally laughing! And after what they had said! In his emotion Bobby squeeied a fishhook and moaned in consequence. After he had extracted the stinging barb he laborttTusly and stealthily crawled out, dragging hia pole and line. Back of the house he sat down on a stump to think things over. "Did you ever know time to go so fast?" Mrs. Jcnes had chirruped. "Yes," his mother had responded. "We shall close the cottage and go bark to Chicago next week. Bobby's school 'begins the week after." Bobby was nine. As he sat on the stump with the apple orchard In front of him he saw Instead of It the long staircase with the monitor at the top and felt the slippery shintness of a stack of brand-new school books. He knew just bow the pages would stick together in their abominable new ness and how weird the unfamiliar contents would look. He felt cramped, bound down, domi nated. All the delightful buoyancy which had been uIb for three months had vanished and big balls of lead weighed down hla toes and Angers and shoulders. He drooped as be neath the weight of the world. He felt very old aud very tired. Once, un der his oreath, be said: "Darn!" aa he kicked the stump ou which he sat His eye fell on the recumbent fish pole and another pang lacerated his heart No more for him the shiny sllverlness of the dear little bass he had been catching! And those trees In the woods full of gree nuts'. And the ripening grapes! And tho sumac and aaasafraa bushes already begin ning to hint of red and orange giories! And the rabblta! With one bound Bobby made for the rabbit hutches. - Eagerly lilting out the two half-grown black and white bunnies, he stuffed them Into hla pockets. Then, grabbing up the flsb pole,' he looked hurriedly round. A new light was In his eyes. Tbere was determination about his mouth. He headed for the kitchen. "Cookies, Norah!" he begged. "Lota of them." "Yeh won't have no appetite for supper," said Norah, handing over Bobby's perquisites. His lips tightened, for little she knew! Supper indeed! ' Crawling under the fence because he was on a desperate expedition that made a gate unbeliulng hla progress, Bobby struck out for the woods. Once bis feet bad touched the Indian trail be halted his mad ruth. They never would find blm! None of the grown-ups ever walked tbe In dian trail because their hair caught In the branches and their lace skirts in tbe prickly wild amllax. Tbelr feet did not know tbe delight of the stretches of brown hemlock needles nor their noses the smelt of woodsy things. Bobby's nostrils twitched like those of his rabbits aa he sniffed bal samic fragrance. He walked and walked, finding the fiahpole difficult to cany when taken In combination wltn a narrow path and eager, reaching buahes. He had walked farther on the trail than he had done before all summer and the trees were bigger and closer together. It waa even gloomy, for now the sun bad gone down outside. Tbe quick dusk in among the trees chilled lis spirits. He stood still and listened. Not a sound. If you want to realize how scary absolute silence is you should be a little boy of nine, far from home. - ' Waltl There was a noise oh. what waa that awful noise? It was the blood pounding In Bobby's tem ples. He dragged out the bunnies and bugged tbem closer. They were warm, and tbelr fur was soft as they cud died at hla neck. He took a few slow steps. A branch crackled up above. Bobby stared feverishlngly into the gloom overhead. It might be a pan ther or a lion or a tiger! Dreadful thought! Turning, he crashed through under brush, dropping bis fiahpole. Little whimpers were struggling up to bis lips, but he bit them back. When It waa entirely dark be found he was quite lost After he had criid himself helpless he went to sleep through sheer weariness.
