NOT SWEET ENOUGH FOR THEM.
President Wilson’s Jackson Day
speech, which be opened, by the way,
by saying: “I get very tired staying in
Washington and saying ewmet things.”
has greatly pained the K< publican
senators. Senator Galling*!* expresses
regret that the president should have
been “partisan and undignified.” Sen
ator Lippltt contented himself with n
kind remark about fools rushing in
where angels fear to tread. Uncle Joe
Cannon swore and said that, so fur
ns he Is concerned, the Democrats are
welcome to all their new Ideas, am)
Senator Ixidge salt! he could not find
anything In the speech that was
worthy of comment.
This disapproval from the old stand
patters is not altogether dishearten
ing to 1 democrats. It Is suggested by
the New York World that elder
etuelsmcn do not know precisely what
alls Outfit as yet, but they are hoping
that the president will not get In the,
habit of going away from Washington
and taking a holiday on saying sweet
things.
THE RIGHTS OF NEUTRALS.
The note from Great Britain, in re
sponse to our note is not ultogethei
satisfactory, but it is very certain,
although It calls for more talk, that
no occasion whatever exists for work
ing up a sensation or friction over the
question.
The tone of Knglttnd'* note Is ns
friendly and considerate as was our
own and there can be no dquht that
»th« film! result of the correspondence
will be satisfactory to all.
As we understand it, the chief point
stressed In the United States’ iiute to
England was that her indioy as to
articlaa classed as contraband was too
uncertain and that the long delays to
tthe cargoes and ships held for exami
nation created a great and unneces
j#ary Injustice to the commerce of this
nation, ami other neutrals
The English note does not quite
meet this point
The United States claims that com
merce between neutrals, whether or
not in articles «In used by England as
t contraband 1s legitimate, but Great
(Irliain makes the contention that all
Co mm area, whether in cantraband or
kuL la subject to suspicion as to its
desttnarien Great Britain has been
guilty of wantonly holding up trade in
pursuit of her suspicion of sharp prac
tice, with the result of distinct in
justice to Amerinan business
Nothing 1e more neutral than that
the rights of the bystander should be
overlooked when a gre-a*. struggle is
going on hut tt 1s the fa tit of tlte by*
»iwilder himself if hts rights continue
to be overlooked The corr«**potidevu *•
between Uncle Ham and John Bull

It is very Important that the rights
of to 'wirt* and do business
should he scrupulously considered
especially as the prospect of years of
warfare ar* becoming clear The
United Hrates is clearly the (tower
upon whb'h the straightening out of
these difficulties devolve and there
can he no doubt that •» little more

HOW MRS. MOUSE SAVED HER
FAMILY.
Mrs Mouse told her five little ones
that she would take them out for a
walk and let them see the barn in
which they had a hole in the floor,
“hut you must be very quiet,” who
told them, "and keep close to me also,
for Mistress I'ussy sometime* takes
a nap in the barn doorway in the af
ternoon, and she always sleeps with
one eye open."
The five little mice danced about
with glee, for they hod never been out
of tb»* hide in which they lived and
they had heard wonderful tales of the
barn and the grepi bags of meal and
grain that wer* there.
“if ydu are not more quiet,” said the
mother,* "you cannot go, for you will
attract, attention by your squeaiui, and
that is a thing that well-bred mice
never do; If you wish to live In this
world you must be quiet and move
about with Hwiftnesa.”
The five little mice sat up in a
row and folded their arms while
their mother washed their faces and
they did not squeak ns they usually
did, but held still and let their mother
rub ns hard as she liked.
J TA’f TT/VS#
O<SS- sVOHS / v^
When they were all ready hlio 'took
them to the hole and looked out very
< odiously "You miint keep very clow#
to me," whe wild, "and If I should run
you muni Mcatnper into thl* hole an
fa«t a* you can for you may know
that .VliatreH* Pu*ay i* in night.”
"VeH, mother,” wild the little inice,
and they followed her out. Firm she
tool them to the bag of meal and
Giowed them how to gnaw a hole in it
ho that It would not be neen and then
nhe .-bowed them how to find the grain

"and all the time you must keep a
sharp lookout for Pussy," she said.
Just then Mrs. Mouse glanced to
ward the door and there was Pussy
coming in. She could not get her lit
tle ones hack to the hole without pass
ing Pussy, so she ran back of some
barrels and told the little mice to fol
low her.
Pussy walked around as though she
had not seen them, but she sat down
right in front of the hole, where they
lived.
"Hhe saw us," said Mrs. Mouse. "She
Is a sly one. but she is not any wiser
than i am, and if we can keep out of
reach of her claws I think 1 can fool
her.”
Pussy was stretched out now as
though a mouse was the farthest from
i.f.y thouj'htr. nnd she yawned as If
she could hardly keep awake.
But this did not fool Mrs. Mouse;
she well knew that the minute <die
moved Pussy would spring for her
like a flash.
"When I say run,” she told the little
mice, "do not wait to see where I am,
hut get into the hole as quickly as you
can and keep away from the opening
after you get inside, for I shall have
to make a hold dash. Now sit very
still t.ll I say run.”
Mrs. Mouse moved to the side of the
barrel where she knew Pussy could
see her, and then she ran up the side
of the barrel. Quick as a w ink I 'ussy
was up the side of the barrel and into
it, ami Mrs. Mouse called to her little
ones "win,” and they did.
Now Pussy did not know what Mrs.
Mouse did about that barrel, there was
a hole In the bottom of it, and as Puss
came over the top. Mrs. Mouse ran out
of the hole in the bottom and was in
her home before Pussy could wink.
Ami that was not. the worst of it, the
barrel was deep and the sides smooth
and Pussy could not get out until
her master came into feed the horses
and heard the scratching.
"Why are you there?" he asked as
he lifted her out.
Pussy looked folish, and he laughed
when he saw' the hole in the bottom.
“Fooled you that time, didn’t they?”
lie said with a laugh.
Pussy ran away for her supper, but
she made up her mind to give special
attention to that, hole where the mouse
family lived, and not to be fooled a
second time.
