THE. STORY OF "ZOE"

Copyright. 1916, by the McClur Newepaper Syndicate, New York.

Pug was a puppy and his nose was such a little one and turned up on bis face in such a manner that he was named Pug. One morning his mother was asleep and Pug and his brothers were playing around her when suddenly Pug thought of running away. "Mother sleeps a long time," he said to himself. "I can run to the woods and look in and get back before she awakes." "When he reached the woods. Pug stood still for a minute and listened. It was so still and cool-looking in there he walked in. ' Then he saw something move and he chased it, but it ran to fast he did not even see what it was. "Guess it was a bird and it was tfraid of me," said' Pug. who had -flen scared the birds in the yard and .bought everything was afraid of him. Pug found himself running along i path in the woods in a few minutes, md he rolled over and "over for. joy hat he was in the big woods, and he van sure he would have great fun caring all the animals that . lived (here. "They cannot be larger than mother," thought Pug, who thought his mother the very bigges't animal alive, "and I am getting bigger and bigger "very day, so I guess the animals in here will be pretty frightened when they see me." Just then something whisked across the path and Pug ran behind a rock and peeked out. "I wasn't a bit afraid," said Pug. coming out and looking about, ' but it was so quick it made me run."

"Where did you come from?" asked a voice, and, looking up. pug saw on the liinh or a tree over him a creature with a hushy tail and very bright eyes. "Was that you that went so fast by mo a minute ago?" askod Pug. "Yes. and you we're frightened." laughed the squirrel. "I was not frightened." said Pug. Dfgs are not afraid of anything. I am growing every day and soon I'll he as big as mother. Aren't you nTraid of me?" "Oh. you funny little fellow," said the squirrel, laughing so he nearly fell off the limb. "Afraid of you! Why you cannot even bark, and all dogs, big or little, can bark, you know." "T'ean too." paid Pug. "Bow wow, wow." he sold in a funny little voice. "What Is all this noise I hear?" asked another voice and Pug saw a creature with very long ears looking nt him not from from where he stood. Orf ran Pug behind the rock again and peeked out. "Oh! Mr. Rabbit, that is a dog," said the squirrel with a laugh; "at least he thinks he is." Pug ran out when he saw the newcomer was not inclined to chase him. 'Tow, wow, wow," he said; "aren't vou afraid of me?" "Oh! dear, no." said the rabbit; "T am growing bigger every day and fo on I'll be as big as my mother and clnse you." "Who Is going to chase anybody around here?" psked another voice. ' nr.d this time Pug ran. for this creature hid long front teeth and looked fierce. Png did not stop until he was almost out of breath and then he found himself beside a pond and he was phul to lap the water and cool hU throat. When he lifted his head Pug saw on r. log a very nueor creature and it was f:o much 'smaller than he was that he barfced at it. Mr. Frog : tiffed himself up very big. "Well, well," he said, ".vou can make n lot of noise for n puppy. How did you t o;, e in here; is your mother with you. "No; I am all alone and I am not ; puppy. 1 am a dog." said Pug. "Bow, wow. wow; aren't on afraid of me?" "Oh! dear no," croaked the frog; "why, you could not even stand on this log. and you couldn't catch me anyway; I could be at the bottom of the pond before you reached me." Pug opened his eves wide. "You wouldn't dare jump into the water; you would be drowned," he said. "I know you must be afraid of me be

cause l am so. Dig. i am going 10 base you; now, look out." Mr. Frog smiles a wide smile as Pug ran on the log and slipped and slipped, looking very much frightened. Then, with a loud splash, Mr. Frog

went under the water and Pug felt himself all wet from the spray. Just as Pug reached the edge of the log he slipped again and this time he could not hold on to the log he went off into the water, but it was not deep, and frightened almost to death. Pug scrambled out and shook himself. "Who is frightened now, I wonder?" said someone and Pug saw sitting on the log again Mr. Frog, looking none the worse for his plunge. "How did you get out?" asked Pug. "I did not mean to frighten you so; I was afraid you were drowned." "Don't you worry about me," said Mr. Frog; "you run home to your mother. If the water had been deep where you fell in you would not be here now. 1 live at the bottom of this pond and I can tell you it is deep, deep, deep." And aa he said the last deep in a very deep voice, into the water went Mr. Frog again and off ran Pug as fast as he could, never stopping until he reached home.

Philomath Events

By Gertrude McCashland.

' Godfrey Brooke did not enjoy his dinner or his company. It was a more or less business meal, and just then Brooke was not feeling at all in a business frame of mind, as in all probability his host and his host's friends discovered, to .their dismay, long before the stage of coffee, liquors and cigars. . It was a dinner of four men at the Junion Resent Club four men whose names were world-known, whose combined power and combined wealth might easily be construed into a national menace. The ostensible reason of the - convivial gathering was the friendly discussion, without prejudice, of certain matters in dispute in connection with a great rubber company in course of formation. Three men, millionaires all and giants of finance, were standing out. or trying to stand out. against cer-

! tain demands of Sir Godfrey Brooke,

tne new K. C. M. G., and the conces-

Central Africa. The actual reason was probably known only to Lord Lemon vale, though guessed at by his two colleagues, Mr. Hermann and Mr. Enrico Polita. Lemcnvale wanted Sir Godfrey to talk. "In vino Veritas" was his motive. , Brooke was annoyingly reserved and circumspect; Brooke undoubtedly had several big things up his sleeve; Brooke was, moreover, without a doubt, driving a very hard bargain. Hermann and Polita. controlling between then money that ran into almost astronomical figures, had tacitly "given Lord Lemon vale his head." They were in the "deal," however, as it turned out; and they had great faith in his lodrship. Also neither of, them greatly loved Brooke. As a matter of fact, Brooke's thoughts were far away. He was regretting the time he was wasting with men who had nothiag in common with him. . He had no desire to talk busi-

sionaire of the vast forest lands imness; he had been doing nothing else

all day, and his one desire was to get away as soon as he conveniently could without appearing discourteous to his host. j - He had told his wife that he would be back at eleven, but fully meant to be back before that hour, despite the suggestion of Lemonvale that they should go to the Empire and of Polita that they should play bridge. Lemonvale did not altogether despair until they rose from the dinner table about half-past nine; then he saw that it Was no good. Brooke, whether intentionally or, not, meant to eschew business topic. He was full of motor cars, and was expatiating with boyish delight on his new machine, and telling them of all the runs he had made this Spring in the South of France. To Be Continued.

The Dealer's Viewpoint Frequently a newspaper is asked to induce , local merchants to co-operate with some manufacturer's general advertising. It would get a reply something like this if it attempted to comply: . "I have built my business and individualized my store through newspaper advertising. You say newspaper advertising is good; I know it is good Why don't this manufacturer spend his money where his newspaper advertising will create a demand over my counters for the product?" The local dealer is glad to cooperate with the manufacturer's advertising .when it appears in the newspapes of his city.
