Shaw, former Governor of Iowa and former Secretary of the Treasury under Roose- velt, to the oft-repeated cry of these days that the Repub- lican and Democratic parties represent no definite cleavage of principles. A political party to endure in America must be grounded in the firm principles of good and honest gov- ernment, must be patriotically devoted to the furtherance of the institutions of the Republic, must stand firm against the heresies which are born in distorted visions of dema- gogues or in foreign fields. When the Republican or Demo- cratic party departs from the principles on which the Re- public was founded, when they are momentarily detracted DETROIT Kresge Bldg. by popular hysteria from them, both will begin to disinte- | grate. Bismarck people heard an unusual speech last night. It Was a speech by a man more than three score and ten years of. age, who had achieved power and responsibility in the nation, yet whose selfishness had never perverted his deter- | With no hope for | mination to place principles above men. personal gain nor desire for it, he brought before the voters of the city the views of one who had proved his right to be heard, whose integrity and honesty had never been ques- tioned during many years of public service. It was a speech based upon a broad premise; it was a review ef the politica! development of the nation which deserved the careful thought and consideration of every citizen present. His plea for continuance of parties was timely. Mr. Shaw told of how the United States had been built} into the greatest industrial nation on earth, moving ahead of older countries, through the Republican system of fostering | industry not fathering it. He showed the important part the policy of protective tariff has played; he impressed upon his hearers the importance of this policy by relating what had occurred when the policy was shunted aside. He made an eloquent plea of the principle of fostering industry as against fathering it; of giving to the individual the right te pursve happiness through his personal achievements instead of taking that right away from him through government ownership. in these days when hysteria is rampant, when new theorie: are sought to replace time-proven principles, Mr. _ Shaw’s forceful speech is refreshing. TRYING TO TALK WITH ANIMALS Before many years, man will solve the “languages of animals” and learn how to carry on conversation with them. So predicts M. Francois David, French scientist. > He believes that dogs, cats, elephants, horses, ducks and even the mosquito and other insects communicate with each other by the sounds they make. Many naturalists believe that animals talk to each other by a mysterious sixth sense like telepathy. Says David: “Some years ago they taught German horses, successfully, it seems, the extraction of the square root. There exists today some elephants who can play the flute while dancing the fox-trot. this progress.” All very fantastic. But, to the higher scientist, noth- ing is impossible. Although we cannot understand what animals “gay,” we have succeeded in making them understand us. for instance, when we say “Whoa!” to a horse or “Lie !#Y and treasurer, down!” to a dog. This proves that animals have some form of :intelligence. Every one has seen dogs that were “almost human.” *The chimpanzee is the most intelligent of all animals, of the New York Zoological tiger, dog and elephant highly. Hornaday suggests: “If every man devoted to his affairs, and to the affairs of his city and state, the same measures of intelligence and honest industry that every warm- blooded animal devotes to its affairs, the people of this world would abound in good health ~ ness. Many men are both morally and i than many quadrupeds.” intellectually lower Edgar Wallace, in his new detective novel, Arm,” describes a Borneo ape that had been trained to be an.excellent servant. This ape is a grotesque creature oi the imagination. But Consul, the famous chimpanzee, could easily have been trained to be an efficient slave. t] him to slave would be another matter. Inducing ‘The prediction is occasionally made that eventually man will breed millions of apes and make them do his hard work, as mining coal. Their intelligence would first have to — which might possibly be done by feeding them of the thyroid and other endocrine glands. EVERY ONE PAYS #Every one pays taxes.

RED CROSS HEAD ? ‘give all the money away to the poor | king and queen to mend their ws ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Down the beanstalk came the ‘Twins from Beanstalk Land. Not like Jack had done the time the giant chased him, but slowly and efully, reach- places to put their feet. Suddenly one of the big beana opened and out came a little green man. “Hello!” he nodded _ pleasantly. “Can't you come in a minute?” And then the Twins saw that) the big green bean-pod really a lit- tle house, windows, door ang all. “Do you live here?” asked Nancy, “We didn't see your house we were going up. Were you here at the time?” i “Yes,” said the little man. “But it was not intended that you should see me then. I'm the Beanstalk Fairy and I can make myself in- visible whenever I wish. The Fairy Queen told me you were going. to Beanstalk Land, and asked me tolgo with you to that you were nat in any dange: “But where Nick, self?" were you?” asked “Where did you keep your= me in and I'll tell you all about it,” invited the green man. So the Twins went into the queer little house and sat down, “I was right beside you on all your adventures in Beanstalk Land,” saig their host. “When you it was I who guided Vou so that you fell safely onto Snap’s back. “And when Snap chased the rab bit, I caused you to fall on the sun- bonnet of the giant farmer's wife When you fell into the milk pail, J made her think you were flies and fish you out. I told the ant to come along and carry you away, and when you climbed the rose bush, I helped you up. When you fell off the din- mer table later, I caused you to trop into the giant woman's thimble. And then into the seven-league boots I led you to the corn field and help- ed to discover the king's treasure; and rescued you from drowning in the drain when the king's cat left you there!” Oh. I'm.sure we are ever and ever and ever so much obliged!” said Nancy. “We often wondereq why nothing ever happened to us, but we thought it was ‘our magic green shoes.” “They helped, too!” said the little man, “but one cannot be too safe in a country where everything is so big and you:are so little. Have you had a nice time?” “Splendid,” said Nick. “Were you with us when the fiddler fooled the! people at the fair and pretended that his fiddle was bewitched?” “Yes,” nodded the little man, “and as it wasn’t the truth he was tell- ing exactly, it was I who made him on his way home. “Besides that, it was I who made you go to the palace and tell the ays, Beanstalk Land is a much ° better place since you visiteg it. Here is a letter for the Fairy Queen telling her all about it.

But if It's a mere question of happiness, that’s aot the sort that lasts, and the re- action is frightful. 1 am beginning to feel a pideous sense of loss and wish I had it to do all over again.” “You can go to work on another. “I'll never feel to another play as I have to this.” “That's what every artist has seid to himself since the gods plucked out a rib and invented the breed.

He dropped her hand with a frown, “Look here, Gora,” he said. “You haven’t any mistaken idea of ap pealing to her, have you?” “What do you take me for?” de manded Miss Dwight angrily. “The father in ‘Camille?’” “Well, keep off the grass, th: all, Ta, ta.” xt When Mary Zattiany returned home at twelve o'clock after a tire- some morning in Judge Trent's of- fice she told the butler to send her luncheon upstairs, and ascended to the seclusion of her room, delighted with the prospect of a few hours she could call her own, These hours had been increasing during the past fortnight but were no less welcome. Not a word of that din- ner was known to any but those who had attended it. People do not foul their own nest unless they are ready to desert it and sometimes not then. Moreover, the women were too ashamed or too humiliated with thelr failure to invite the criti cism of their friends, and although they avoided the subject among themelves, their agreement to bury {t was no less final for being tacit. The men, with something of the deliberation of male guests at a diplomatic dinner where there has been an unfortunate incident in- volving dangerous. possibilities if known, called one another up'on the telephone the next day and agreed’to “forget it.” Even Din- widdie nevet heard of it. As for Madame Zattlany, she could be trusted to dismiss it from her con- temptuous mind. Nevertheless, these young women, who had enter. tained her almost constantly, point- edly omitted her from their lunch- eons and dinners and parties—in her new lightheartedness she had been induced to attend several par- ties during the past six weeks, And they had little difficulty in per suading others to follow their ex- ample, The more amiable of the younger women might have looked upon their attack that night with horror if they had heard of it, as, indeed, several at the dinner had done, but they were no more enthu: siastic over the “foreign invasion” than their militant sisters. The re. monstrances of the men were un heeded, and when one or two tried to arrange theatre parties or din- ners in Madame Zattiany’s honor they received graceful regrets, Even the attitude of her older friends had changed, now that the dramatic novelty of her return te them, and their first determined en. thusiasm, had worn off. They were betraying more and more their dis approval of what she had done, the more so perhaps, as the majority of them, being excessively thin, might have accomplished a like result had not their standards protected them, This naturally inspired them with a full realization of their superiority, which increased daily. If she had made the attempt and failed it would have been bad enough, for such violations of the law of orthodoxy insulted the code in which she had been born and reared: but triumphantly to have succeeded In making herself young again while the rest of them were pursuing their unruffied way to the grave was a deliberate insult both to themselves and to God. Moreover, théy Hardly knew what to talk to her about, and although this might still have been the case had she returned to them carrying aloft the crinkled and spotted flag of time; so far apart their a had run, her scfentific victory added. an ever-increasing irritant. Also, she. had never been a “woman's wo- man,” and it was patent that, as ever, she was far more animated in the company of men. Inevitably, old scandals were raked up. They had been frowned upon in the days when she was protected by her hus- band and the great position he gave missed for more interesting scan- dals, both public ‘and private, at kome. They no doubt would have remained in the limbo. of history had she returned looking no better than themselves, but her ridiculous deflance of nature revived them, and these ladies discovered that thelr memories were more lively than might have been expected of their years, It would be too much, as Mary told Clavering, to ask a violent contradiction of human nature from worn out glands, and she bore them no malice.
