Of song birds the mocking bird Is easily king. The skylark and nightingale deserve ail of the praise that the poets have given them. They are sweet songsters, indeed, but when it comes to a contest with the mocking bird their famed laurels wither away. In its variety, range- volume and sweetness, the song of the mocking bird has no equal in the feathered kingdom. To hear the "falling song" of the mocking bird on a moonlight night in June is to hear that which never yet came from throat of skylark or nightingale. N. Y. American. Ignorant Woman.

"My dear madam," said the rascally iealer, with a pitying, air, "do you not mow the word 'thermometer' la derived from two Greek words meaning 'a measure of heat? Naturally, thereUore, it Lsa't meant to measuxa cold."

EMPLOYER WON'T PROSECUTE Pretty Viola Rychowalski Comes to Grief Because of Check. Forging. Pretty Viola Rychowalski, falrhalred and brown-eyed, Is weeping her eyes out today because her employer has discovered her to be a forger. Shame and chagrin are responsible for the tears, as Dr. J. Goldman, the East Chicago dentist for whom she worked and whose name she forged to three checks, varying in amounts from, $3 to $300, has refused to prosecute her. Dr. Goldman has, however, dispensed with her services, quite naturally, and Viola will have to seek a Job elsewhere. Viol's peculations cover a short period, the first of them having been perpetrated April 16, when she made out a check to herself for the modest sum of $3, signed Dr. Goldman's name to it and cashed it at the East Chicago bank. The forgery was sufficiently clever to pass the scrutiny of the officers at two banks as the check not only got by the teller at the East Chicago bank, but later passed the First National, where Dr. Goldman does his banking, without detection. Emboldened by her success Viola next went out after a larger sum. She wrote out a check for $300 and with it made some purchases in the Bee hive department store. Had the check been $3 Instead of $300 it might have passed muster here, but Maurice Katz, to whom the check was handed, knew there was some mistake, as Dr. Gold man was not likely to be handing out checks in that sum to a girl In his employ. Mr. Katz accordingly called the girl's attention to the fact that the amout was $300 and asked her whether $3 was not the sum Intended. He told the girl to take It back and have it rectified and he would accept it The girl laughed and paid for her purchase with cash, but later went Into another store, the Boston store, with a $3 check. This she managed to pass al right and it, too, was accepted by the bank. This check was dated Saturdar. May 2. This thing might have gone on for some time but for Dr. Goldman's punctiliousness In calling for his month's grist of checks every month. Monday he called as usual, received his checks and in looking them over, one signature caught his eye. It did not look like his, and he did not remember having made out a check to Viola on April 16, the date of the check. Pondering over this, be came upon the other check dated May 2 and also with an unfamiliar signature. He was sure he had not issued a check to the girl on that date and he immediately divined wiat was up. The girl was accused and admitted her crime, but begged hard to be forgiven. She agreed to make good the amount of her forgery, paying her em-
