"Yes," said the pretty plant, 1 re-member. For, you know, I have been around for sev-eral years. I'm a sturdy plant, a strong plant In other words. "Or rather, I should have Bald, I think, In 'other word,' For I only used one word 'strong' Instead of 'sturdy.' They both mean Just about the same. "Xes, I remem-ber your relatives "I Peeped Up Above." have spoken of this before. "The nice earth which Is around you told me so," the little weed said. "I was wondering ubout how I would be treated. Very carefully I peeped my little green self above the earth to see If any one rushed at me with a shovel and an angry look. "I had a feeling they might. Of course a shovel would hardly have been needed for me. I'm so small and I'm not very strong or powerful as some of the members of my family are. "But I was greeted with delight and the earth told me that my relatives hud spoken of the Joy it was to be a little weed In a pot In the winter time. "The earth encouruged me to come up. "'Peep up nbove,' snld the earth. 'The plant won't object to you. "'You won't be rude and try to take up all the room so that the plant can't grow. Some of the members of your family do that in the gardens, along the countryside. "'But you're a delicate little weed, a dainty little weed, and you won't do anything of that sort. , " 'So peep up above the earth, little weed.' "1 peeped up above, then," the little weed continued, "and I found myself here In this nice fern pot with you, pretty green plant "I heard the members or the fam-ily showing me off to each other a rare honor for a weed. "I heard them gay: "'Oh, look at the cunning little weed I' "That was another rare honor to be called a 'cunning little weed' In such an affectionate tone of voice. "I saw that all around were books and pictures and all such things, but everything was Indoors and there were no gurden paths or (lower beds-o-nly a few plants. "And then the earth whispered to my roots and said : "'It is winter time, you know, and plants are about, trying to bring as much of the into the bouse as is possible. " "You're another little green, grow-ing thing, and they welcome you. " 'So have they welcomed little rela-tives of yours who've come up in the winter time Just as you have, and your relatives have spoken too of their Joy about It. " 'Of course you behave so differ-ently In the winter In a pot like this than you do when you run wild in gardens In the summer time or when you try to run wild I "'You don't run wild here and your good manners are greatly appreciated. "So here I am, plant, and I'll not get In your way. I'll be so such a nice little weed. "I'll see what Is going on but I won't try to push my ways about everywhere. "I'll try not to take up much room. I'll be sat-isfied vlth my own Utile place here. "I'll appreciate this greeting which I have re-ceived, and I'll never try to get the best of you." Oh,. Look at the Cunning Little Weed." "I know thut Is true," said the pret-ty green plant as It looked down upon the little weed. And the little weed smiled In Its soft, pretty, dainty, tiny little fashion and Its small green leaves opened Just a trifle wider as It smiled. nil mni i in n 1 1 1 1 1 1 11--; Ferociou$ Rabbit Nearly Kills Gtrl O'Neill, Neb.

Martin, forty, told Traffic Policeman Crooks when he surrendered at Broad street and Bldge avenue and handed him a six-inc- h lock as evidence that he bad escaped from the Langhorne (Pa.) Jail. "You see, It's this way, offlcer," he explained, after asking to be re-arrested. "I was pinched early this morning, after I was In an automo-bile accident on the Lincoln highway between 1'arklnnd and Langhorne. They took me to the Langhorne Jail. "But It was too cold to sleep. VS'hen I yelled a couple of times for the turnkey and he failed to answer, It made me sore. I looked around the cell and found an Iron bar. "I used the bar to rip this lock off the cell door. Then I shoved the lock In my pocket and started to look for the Jailer. I was going to make him turn on the hent. But I couldn't find anybody anywhere around the place, so I figured the nex tbest thing to do was to walk down to Philadelphia and explain the situation."

Thought Dead 4 Years, Returns From Jungle Albany, N. Y. Believed by friends to have perished In an African Jungle four years ago, A. J. Klein, formerly New York state taxidermist. Is back alive and well. Mr. Klein came back with a record of having slain 88 lions, and with 20,000 feet of motion picture film, depicting native hunts, herds of 200 gnus and zebras, and data con-cerning the life and habits of many animals. Mr, Klein has spent 14 years ex-ploring the South African Jungles, where he collected specimens for the American Museum of Natural History. Until about four years ago be cor-responded with David C. Lithgow, an artist of Albany, but since that time no word had been received from the explorer and scientist. Mr. Klein regards, as his most Im-portant work, the photographing of packs of hyenas. It is difficult to get hyenas in large groups because they break up and hurry to their lairs be-fore daybreak, he said. By appealing to the animals' greed, however, he suc-ceeded In keeping them out until after sunrise.
