PIG GRUNTINGS
"Is it a food 5" asked Grandfather
Porky of Brother Bacon.
Brother Bacon had just aald he
thought it would be a grand Idea if
they had a meeting, a big meeting, an
important meeting.
None—of tho pigs lanew what be
meant by the word meeting.
"Tell us at once If meeting is a
food," continued Grandfather Porky.
‘Tell us, and do not keep us wait-
ing,"
"Our mouths are watering already,*'
said Miss Ham.
"Mine Is,” said Mrs. Pink Pig.
"So Is mine," said Sammy Sausage.
“Is It Juicy?" asked Grandfather
Porky.
"Is It tender or tough?" asked Miss
I Jam.
"What difference does It make if it
is tender or tough?" asked Mrs, Pink
Ids.
"None at all," answered Miss Ham.
"Is It a weed?" asked Sammy Saus-
age.
"Is It a vegetable?" asked Grand-
futher Porky.
“Do you mean when you say t^nt we
should have n grand meeting tbit we

In which all of us should eat as many

W other gets hold of them?" asked Mas-
ter Pink Pig, without stopping to take
a breath.
"Must be something like that," said
Sammy Sausage.
"Oh, goodie,” said Master Pink Pig,
squealing with delight, and twisting
Ids little tali.
"I’ll say goodie when 1 see the food,”
said Master Pink Pig’s mother.
"Hurry up and tell us all about It,”
said Sammy Sausage.
"Do cot delay," said Grandfather
Porky.
"Tell us at once,” said Miss Ham.
"Why do you keep us waiting!"
» asked Master Pink Pig.
"Why do you Indeed?" asked Pinky
% Pig.
"Because none of you will give me
n chance to speak,” Brother Bacon
said, shrieking and squealing above thought
the others.
"Yon haven't given me a chance to
say n word."
“Say a word, then.” Pinky Pig
urged, “and tell us In one good round,
delicious word, the name of the food
of which you are thinking,”
"But I nm not thinking of food,”
said Brother Bacon.
"Not thinking of food," said Pinky
Pig.
"Not thinking of food,” squealed alt
the other pigs. “What In the world or in
ihe pen Is the matter with Brother
Bacon ?"
"1 !e must have a fever," said Mrs,
Pink Pig.
0 "He must be very ill,” said Mi«e
Ham.
“He must be dangerously ill,” said
Grandfather Porky.
"Oh, no,” squealed and grunted
Brother Bacon, "but as there was no
food around at the moment I thought
we might have a great meeting and
talk about our fawite foods, and the
bc- t meal we ever ate and all our ex-
periences having to do with food.”
“Not such a good idea,” said Grand-
father Porky. ' Bet us rest our brains
when we are not eating. Do not let
us bother to tnlk.”
“However,” said Miss Ham, "it is
better to talk about food than to talk
about anything else." Squeal, squeal.
“Grunt, grunt, grunt,” said the
oilier.--. “Mis3 Ham Is correct”
So all the pigs talked about food un-
til the fanner came Hlong with their
dinner.
With what grunts they greeted the
farmer. Their appetites were better
than ever from the talk they had had.

Too Much Bait
Little Bobby, aged five. was sent
outdoors to play after a hard rain.
He came In almost immediately and
started to take oif his things.
"Why, Bobby." his mother exclaimed,
surprisedly, "I thought you were so
anxious to go out and play! Why do
you want to stay in?"
“Because I don’t want to stay out
in the yard,” said Bobby. "There’s
too nmch^balt.'*

They were talking about England
fuid what that small conntry has
accomplished in
power and influ-
ence.
“What one thing
has helped more
than anything
else,” one of the
older men asked,
"to put England
where she is to-
day?”
The boy to
whom the ques-
tion was put
______ a litQe while seriously and
then answered:
“Respect for law, I think.”
He was quite right. No one who has
kept his eyes open in London, for in-
stance,- can help but be impressed
With the reverence of the Englishman
for the •aw and for those who are
delegated to enforce It. A policeman
In America is often a Joke and a by-
word. In England be is respected,
loved almost, and his raised hand Is
the hand of God. He is the friend of
children and of the crippled and the
unfortunate; he Is a haven of safety
for stri. .gers and his word puts an
end to d, rurbances of every sort.
Three men were sitting in the ob-
servation car as 1 rode up to Minne-
apolis. They were beyond middle age;
they were evidently experienced, and
I gathered from their conversation
that they were officials of the road..
As we rode along they pointed out the
one to the Other, where changes
should bo made, where Rome subor-
dinate had, perhaps, made errors in
carrying out regulations. A fireman
stoking an engine, as we halted at. a
division point, was wasting coal and
breaking some regulation evidently,
which had been laid down for his
ghhtance. One of the men took the
pumber of his engine, and l knew that
shine one would sooner or later hear
Jbout the dereliction. Law should be
obeyed.
The oldest, man of the group rose,
finally, to go to his compartment
"What did you do with my over-
coat?” he Inquired of his companion.
"I have a bottle in the Inside pocket
and I shouldn’t want it broken.” He
winked knowingly at the other man
and whispered something Interesting
into his ear, and they went off to-
gether. 1 had seen him the night be-
fore sitting ha'f drunk in the smoking
room, mumbling incoherently, a glass
of liquor in his hand too stupefied
with drink to set the glass down or
to finish Ita contents. No one better
than he could realise the danger of
one of hia engineers or firemen or
brakemen violating tho prohibition
law, but tor him it was all right, the
matter of a Joke in fact. His attitude
explains a lot of anomalies in Ameri-
can life. We do not respect law
though we expect the other man to
do so. We want ourselves to ding to
the forbidden bottle.
I talked to a young fellow a few
days ago who had violated a well
known college regulation and Bad
knowingly and Intentionally done so.
“Well,” he said, .in extenuation of
bis dereliction, “every one violates
law, some time. Ton do, don't you!
1 dont see why 1 should be batter
than the rest especially when the
majority of the fellow- get away
witb It” , „ tl
Ha could not see the ill-logic of hla
argument He simply wanted his hot
tig fn spite of prohibition.

ABSOLUTELY FRESH
ty ny not adopt the simple plan always having a
roast o a hand, then when the children want a

Our fresh meats are fresh, a fact that makes all
the difference in ihe world in their taste when
