"Ct000 afternoon Urs- - Johnson. I Just dropped in to say how d'ye do, us being next-doo- r' neighbors so to speak, rue living over the way, "and . you being a newcomer to our town. And what might you be doing? Mak-ing cookies? Uni-u- They smell good. No thank you. Mrs. Johnson, I never eat between meals. "Benutlful children those are of yours. Two boys and a girl? Oh, three boys and two girls. It's nice when the family Is split up so even ns that, Isn't It, though I must say five children Is rather a lot In these day a. I never had any. My grandmother she was a Miss Tlbbets of Boston ' she bad twelve. Yes, families were larger then. - "Do you know, my dear, I've called In to give you a bit of advice. I've noticed how you slave for those two boys and girls of yours Oh, yes, tliree boys and two girls. It's so hard to remember details like that, Isn't It, though you being the mother, of course you wouldn't have any trouble. I remember when . my Cousin LI 11a had twins. Nobody could tell 'em apart, and I suld, 'For goodness' sake, Lllla, what are you going to do when they get mixed up?' Their names were Jean and Joan, Queer names to give twins, don't you think, Mrs. Johnson? My husband said It was like a team of horses. He Is so furiny sometimes, when he isn't In a bad humor. Well what was I saying? Yes I said, 'Why don't you decide which Is which and tie a red thread on one's arm and a green one on the other?' But Lllla knew them quite well, without the slightest" trouble. "Well, I was saying? Oh, yes, I've noticed how you make a slave of yourself for those children. How? Well, take your making cookies, for example. A fine warm autumn day like this, when you should be out g yourself, and here you are at home, making cookies for your chil-dren. "Home from school hungry? Of course they'll come home hungry. But If I had my way I'd give them a nice piece of bread and Jam, or maybe sirup. Children like that Just as well, and they don't grow up with any pam-pered notions. "And how long do you say that great pile of cookies will last them? Depends upon how hungry they are? Funny, now, I didn't look on It In that way. I should say, though, that they'll be mighty hungry children If they can get through" that lot In a wek. Yes, I can see they do look light, but still, cookies are cookies, and little stom-achs won't stretch forever. "Well, that sounds like your chil-dren on the porch, Mrs. Johnson, and so I shall have to go. Yes, I am very fond of children, only my head's not very strong, and they're apt to be up-setting. I'm sure I hope they'll like your cookies. "But I do want to Impress on you before I go, Mrs. Johnson, that It doesn't pay to make yourself a slave to your children. Let them grow up with Independent Ideas, not learn always to turn to and rely npon their mother. The idea of your sitting here on a fine summer's day like this making cookies. And I suppose next week It will be the same story over again. "I do hope you won't mind my being frank about It how de do, my dear I Just home from school? my being frank, but quite a number of the neighbors have noticed the way you work from morning till night and pitied you for It, and so I thought I'd tnke It upon myself to speuk to you. Oh, Mrs. Johnson, I wonder If you have such a thing as a hammer In the house that you could lend me? Yes, my Uncle Hob Is coming to put up some pictures for me, and I'll bring It right back as soon as he's finished with It. In the larder? Oh, thank you. Yea, I'll be back wlfiiln an hour or so." "Here's your hammer, Mrs. Johnson, and I am so much obliged to you for the loan of it. I've been wondering whether you thought I took too much liberty this afternoon in mentioning no? Why, thnt's very nice of you. You seem quite a busy woman still, though. Why oh, I suppose you've hidden them away somewhere? Why, those cookies I What, you mean to tell me that they've eaten them all? All of them? That whole pile? Inside of nn hour and a half? Wliat'i that? It won't spoil their dinner? And what' are you doing there? Did I henr you aright, Mrs. Johnson? Did you Bay that you were making cookies?" The Story of J Wan Lung $ By MORRIS SCHULTZ (. 14, Wiitttn Nwpaper Union.) "WAN Ldxgi Oh, bother that Chink I Smoking the pip again, I suppose, instead of attending to his business!" A bleary-eye- d Chinese tottered out of the back room, took the red ticket, grunted, and handed Mrs. Charlson her laundry. Back to the Inner room, diffusing the faint aroma of the poppy. "Quite a good-lookin- g Chinaman," sugmted Mrs. Charlson's companion. "Well, nil Chinks look aUke to me," that ludy answered. Wun Lung had come to the town year or two before. His father was a naturalized American In the days when this was legal. lie had been born In China, after his father's de-parture, lie came to America when he was ten. The father, who was proud of his son, sent him to the uni-versity. Wan Lung was twenty-thre- e when he came to the town. There was a mission to the Chinese. Wan Lung was already a Christian. Perhaps he pretended not to be, for the sake of studying under pretty El-sie James, who conducted the class. An Innocent enough deception. At any rate, nobody knew he was a uni-versity graduate, and Wan Lung made amazing progress In English. "My star pupil," Elsie James would say to her friends. "It Just shows what we can do among these Chi-nese." wnai you can ao, my aenr," saia her father, looking at her pretty face. "Tnke care, Elsie, and don't let him fnll in love with you," her mother warned her. Elsie laughed. A week or so later she hnd hlra to the house. Wan Lung created quite a sensation among the guests, with his good English and his Intelligent ways. "I declare, I think those Chinese are Just too cute for words," said Minnie Hawthorne, Elsie's chum. "His manners are so good. But then all foreigners are." Wan Lung, In short, was voted a success, and thenceforward he was a star at church fairs and festivals, and a great favorite with the ladles. Did Elsie know that the heathen was falling In love with her? Of course she did. And did she lead him on? Well, most girls would, and Elsie was no exception. Though, of course, everything was done according to the rules established from time Immemorial among Anglo-Saxo- n wom-anhood. Then came the flare-u- Wan Lung asked her to marry him. "Oh, Wan I" said Elsie reproachfull-y, feeling a thrill of delicious Inward triumph nevertheless. "I never thought that you would misunderstand my friendship for you like that." "But you love no one else?" "No. Wan," Elsie admitted. "Then can there be no "hope? Too understand, I am an American citi-zen. I bnve lived so many years In this country. I shall never go back to China." "It Isn't that," said Elsie. "What is It, then?" "Why, Wan, It's because you're yel-low, of course." Wan was about to leave the room, but Elsie's mother had suspected something and had not been Idle. She pounced npon Wan Lung. "The Ideal" she cried indignantly. "It's the most disgraceful thing I ever heard of, your presuming to dare to make such a suggestion as that to my darling daughter." "You will forgive me. I didn't un-derstand," paid Wan Lung humbly. "Didn't understand? You should have, then I Elsie, darling, It never pays to have anything to do with these Ortentnls. They simply can't under-stand our American ways. They only Insult you." , Then Wan Lung made his little pro-tests "I do not think I Insulted Miss El-sie," he said mildly. "I was good enough to teach, to have to your house to tea, and I I suppose I bad forgotten that I was yellow." And he went out. Hut now. If you go to Wan Lung's laundry shop, you will have to wait quite a while before he stngeers out of the little back room with bleary eyes and the faint aroma of the poppy about him. But Elsie's mother was correct. Wan Lung Is yellow. X As Good as a j I Circus By ANTHONY REIMERT (, 1914, Wuliro Nwippr Union.) TIT you? Sure it fit youl" said Barney the tailor. "It fit you like de paper on de vail." Big Dick, the Only Original Ameri-can Giant, surveyed the eight feet of his height, as much as be could see of it In Barney's mirror, thoughtfully. "You see," he said, blushing, "1 gotta take a girl to the beach next week on my off day. And I wouldn't like for to look like a cheap skate." "Sure, dot's so," agreed Barney. "In dot suit de peoples take you for Mr. Pierpont Morgan." "And It won't shrink? demanded the Only Original. "Shrink?" cried Barney In horror. "Vy, dot suit vouldu't lose one ampere In a million years. It's so veil shrunk already." Satisfied, Big Dick bent low and made his exit from the tailor's shop, followed by the admiring gazes of the crowd as his figure stalked along the street In the direction of the circus. Hardly had he left when Tiny Tim, the dwarf, thrust his two feet of hu-manity through the doorway. "Say, I heard you make a suit for my friend Big Dick," he began. "Sure, und It fit him like de paper on de vail," said Barney. "Could you rush me a ult?" asked Tiny Tim, and a blush spread across his face. "I I'm going to take a girl to the beach next Thursday, and I wouldn't like for to look a cheap skate." "Sure, I make you a good vun," answered Barney. Tiny Tim was duly fitted, and himself In the tailor's mirror. "It seems kinder loose." he said. "You're sure It won't stretch, Bar-ney?" "StretchV cried Barney In horror. "Dot suit von't stretch one millionth of an Inch In a touiand years." Barney went home. Next morning, as he was about to come to his shop, he received a telephone call from his assistant "Say, that big stiff and the little one were down here with clubs looking for you, half an hour ago 1" he called. "They tried to bust up the shop and the police reserves were sent for. I beat It Just In time." "Vy, vot's the matter?" demanded Barney. "I don't know Jest what's wrong, except that the big stiff said his suit had shrunk and he couldn't take his girl to the beach." "Vy, he must have been out In a shower In It," said Barney. "And the little one was yelling that his suit had stretched." "Veil, vat does he expect of a worsted if he gets caught In the rain?" demanded Barney angrily. "Ain't they got no sense, them circus folks?" He dared not go down to his shop for several hours, but remained mourn-fully at home, trying to find out how he could stretch his fire Insurance policy to cover damages by a mob. In the end, coming to the conclusion that It was Impossible, he made a detour down to the shop, and to his Joy dis-covered that the mob had gone. Except for a cracked window there was nothing amiss. A few bales of cloth had been mishandled, but Barney soon got tXem back Into place. "Veil, dey ain't done much dam-age," suggested Barney. "No, I guess they gone off happy after all.". "How's dotf "I don't know, but the little feller he said something to the big feller, and both of 'em grinned and went away." Barney grunted and thought he had seen the last of them. The circus was leaving next morning, anyway. But that evening, as he was about to close, quite late, to his horror he saw the two appear In his doorway. "Hey, beat it I" he yelled, snatching up his goose. "It's all right i" they cried together. "We come to pay you for the winder. And both our girls Is going to marry us." "Say, vat's the matter mid dem suits?" demanded Barney. "They fits you like de paper on de vail." "Sure they does," answered Big Dick. "We was both kinder sore at first, but then we decided to change. This Is the suit you made for him and that suit Tim's wearing Is the one you made for me." Asparagus an Ancient Plant. Asparagus Is believed to be the old-t- st known plant used for food. The Wandering Jew.
