Juift Folks

By EDGAR A. GUEST LOST ARGUMENTS. When In my wisdom I htve said That It Is time to go to bed Or crossed their wllte with rules and lawi There comes a pout, and then a pause, And then anarsument ensues In which It seems I always lose. When I announce that too much pie Is bad for them, they ask me: "Why?"

:And when I start to prove my case They taunt me to my very face, And in debate, in which they're

strong. They soon convince me I am wrong. Time was' my Judgment they'd accept All my commands they bravely kept, But now they've reached the reasoning age. The answering back and questioning stage; Their little minds are keen and swift While helplessly I seem to drift.

The two black-clad women appeared suddenly In the schoolroom Just ns the children were rising from their seats for the recess period. Their Ions veils completely hid their faces. ( Looking

'Twould drive a great logician wild

.To argue with n healthy child. I A thinking boy of four or five

Could floor the wisest man alive, And any bright-eyed little girl Can set the calmest brain awhlrL And yet I'm glad those madcap elves Are dally thinking for themselves. I'm glad they have opinions strong On what Is right and what Is wrong. And oh, I hope, when older grown. In life's debates they'll hold their own. (Copyright by Edrar A. Guest.) O

HERE'S ODD FREAK OF NATURE

question Is formed by two branches of the Mississippi river and embraces some two hundred acres. It Is covered with a luxuriant growth of oak, elm and var'ous other species of trees, but the twin tree Is the only one of Its kind on the Island, or anywhere else In the world, as far as Is known. By some curious phenomenon, the trunks of the trees, which apparently were growing side by side when saplings, have merged Into a single bole to a height of seven or eight feet. At this height the Individual trunks separate, each bearing Its own peculiar ' bark formation and foliage, whereas the joint trunk seems to be a blend of iioth elm and oak bork. It has been estimated that the twin tree 3 over a hundred years old, and It Is possible that the Indians who once camped on the Island may have had something to do. either by accident or design, with the peculiar formation.

You mustn't take her." The tall woman turned in fury, according to Miss Thayer. "Keep your nose out of this," she commanded, sharply. "This Is our affair, not yours." Without another word, the two women made for the child, took her between them and started for the door. But the school teacher, highly Indig

nant, stood In the way. She seized

he little girl and attempted to hold

ier back. Hut the two women were

00 strong for her. Some of the chil

dren, excited by the struggle, started

o cry. The school teacher, despairing of realnlng the child, turned her attention o,the older woman. She selred her

black veil, lifted It, and gazed full into her face.

Jerking the veil down, tho woman urned back to the child, rushed with he other woman out the door, put the

screaming . child Into ia waiting tour-

ng car, and the three drove off behind

the crippled driver, down Thirty-fourth avenue south, toward the open coun

But one day I was surprised t tee puss leap In at the open flndow. Purring Joyously she jumped up Into my lap to be petted as uual. Then she crawled under the stove and- took up her abode with us."
