were startled to see children on the
streets wearing underwear only.
American sleeveless underwear was
distributed in large quantities by the
American Red Cross. The Serbians
thought the garments much too tine
for underclothes and sent their chil-
dren to geheci dressed in union suits
only.

THE FIRST BABY. ^
The ftr»t— liow well I remember—
Sir HJalmar wum he hlght.
With a lusty Noraelund war-whoop
lie cumo In Ihti dead of night.
He met my respectful greeting
With a Kick and a threatening frowm
0liu preasetl all the house In Ills service.
And turned It upside down.
He thrust, when I meekly objected,
A clinched little fist In my fuce;
I hud no choice but surrender
And give him charge of the place.
He heeded no creature's pleasure;
But oft with a conqueror's right.
He sang In the small hours of morning
And dined In the middle of night.
And oft, to amuse his highness—
For naught we feared as his frowns—
W’e bleated, and barked, and bellowed.
And danced like circus clowns.

It is the easiest thing in the world
to be a nobody. All you have to do
is to pretend you are somebody and
your jealous neighbors will do the
rest.
Wake up, speed up, and in time you
will cash up.
Alaska scenery Is not seen *ry—It’s
nature’s coup d’etat.
Here glaciers as tall ns the dome of
tln‘ eapltol at Washington gleam like
meadows of glass.
And DOW and again When*a berg Is
horn, great sheets of water seem to
splash the very sky and angry waves
loss the baby glacier about as If It
were a cork in n basin of water.
Alaska’s mountains out-Alps the
Alps. A mountain under 12,000 feet
is Ignored as a mere foothill.,. _ —•-
Alaska's frees out giant California’*
mammoth specimens. Here a canoe
capable of carrying 00 warriors baa
been made by the Indians from the
trunk of a single poplar tree.
And Alaska IDOiqUitOefl out-Jersey
Jersey’s fiercest. It Is said that noth-
ing Shop of h coat of tar and lard
will discourage these man-eating nnl-
muls. Ordinary unguents prove to
he nothing more than appetizing
sauces. To kill a mosquito Is mistak-
en Judgment—so many relatives gather
for the funeral. Huge, apparently
self-reliant bears lime been so badly
stung about the eyes that they have
become blind and uqablc to find food
murdered by these tiny pests.—
Kathlene B. Winter, In World Out-
look.
The government fears the possibil-
ity of u strike am ng the farmers.
Of course. The prospect of an empty
stomach is enough to jar even Wash-
ington 'nto life.
I.ife holds much in store for you,
but it gives only that wh'ch you reach
out and take.
