A LOVING
RECOMPENSE
By RALPH HAMILTON
(Copyright, 1120, Western Nfwpnpr Union)
A tramp passed by the little cottage
on the hill, hurrying to shelter from
the pelting snow, sniffed tho nlr redo
lent nnd appetite-Inviting with n savory
flavor, nnd grew hungrier than ever.
The general store delivery boy. tossing
Ids packngo on the rear porch, peered
covetously In at a window, slightly
lowered to let out the steam of cook
ery, nnd saw on n table great bowls
of freshly cooked doughnuts, noted Al
ice Ford, aproned, Hour-covered and
lovely, dipping nnd lifting out the tan
tnllzlngly crisp nnd browned product
of her task. Then, (lilting nbout busi
ly, this queen of the kitchen nodded nnd
smiled as her neighbor friend, Maud
Trevor, came bustling Into the bouse.
"Thought I'd run over before the
drifts got too deep," she announced.
"For mercy's sake I What arc you
up to? Starting n bnkcry?"
"Pretty nearly," smiled back Alice.
"There I thnt makes twenty dozen, two
hundred and forty, nnd the (lour Is nil
used up," nnd Alice sat down In n
chnlr, her dimpled elbows bared, with
n sigh that was restful and satisfied.
Maud's big eyes took In the bowls
and the pans piled high with dough
nuts, scenting a mystery. She know
of no local function whero food do
nations had been asked for. "What
have you cooked all those for?" sho
asked bluntly.
"I promised to have them ready for
Roscoo nt noon."
Mnud Trevor (lushed at tho mention
of Alice's brother, but exclaimed: "Is
ho to cnt all of those?"
"Oh, no; ho Is coming hero In his
flying tnnchlne from tho forest pre
serve slgnnl station. Of course you
have heard about the ship caught In
tho Ice eight miles out In tho lake?"
And then, as Mnud nodded affirmative
ly: "It's held fast among the floes
nnd can't budge, nnd between It nnd
the shore It's a foaming field of loose
cakes. They couldn't reach It by tug
or patrol boat, and tho crew wigwag
ged tho water tower yesterday for
help) There's a friend of Roscoo's
named Ralph Wharton aboard, and for
that reason and because the crew may
bo suffering from want of food, Roscoo
telephoned that ho was coming to tho
rescue. The town has got ready a
lot of fresh and salt meat, flour, sugar,
milk nnd butter ,nnd Roscoe suggested
thnt I contribute n hag of my famous
doughnuts, ns he calls them."
"I guess I'll stay and help you pack
them," suggested Mnud, her mind on
Roscoo. "Isn't It n risk trying to get
tho nlrplano aboard of that ship?"
"Oh. Roscoe won't do that," replied
Alice. "lie couldn't make a landing.
His idea Is to circle above tho ship
nnd drop the pnekages on Its deck."
Maud had been titivating herself ,nt
Allco's mirror, and wns fluttering
with eagerness ns the young aeronaut
nppaared shortly nftcr noon. lie
had n kiss for his sister and n sugges
tive hand clasp for Maud. "I've load
ed tho supplies down whero I lnnded,"
ho explained. "You've got a lot of
them, hnven't you?" as ho noted the
two pillow cases filled nnd tied, nnd
helped himself to some samples from
n plate.
It was nearly evening when Roscoo
returned from his aerial trip, watched
Into the vngue distance nnd the way
back by half the population of tho
town. The details of his venture were
soon popularly known. lie had nr
rnnged to remnln nt home for n spell,
Ills mechnnlc tnklng tho airplane back
to Its starting point; much to the do
light of Mnud.
"Tho meats donated I nnd in! nil right
on the deck of the ship," reported Ros
coe, "but a crate of eggs fell Into the
water and wns crushed by tho Ice."
"And my doughnutB?" Inquired Alice
anxiously.
"Thoy fell right among tho passen
gers nnd crew, and there was a great
scramble. The crowd stood munching
nt tho delicious dainties until I left.
The ship Is caught between two lm
pense (Iocs nnd can't budgo until tho
wind chnnges."
It wns tho next afternoon when Ros
coo came homo from down town. "The
ship got to port here," he nnnounccd,
"nnd tho passengers nnd crow nre cel
ebrating their rescue. They've got
norns nnd n drum, nnti they are
serenading the butcher, tho baker nnd
tho candlestick maker, who treated
them so generously, and thnso dough
nuts, Alice l They'll bo hero soon."
"Here they comol" erred tho excited
Mnud, as blares and booms rent the
nlr, nnd n few minutes later, In pro
cession, there came marching down the
street n merry, mired group.
Ralph Wltfirton wuh profuso In his
praise nnent the delicious doughnuts,
nnd persisted in wenrlng his souvenir,
Tho double pair passed a delightful
evening, nnd young Whnrton was In
vlted to remain as a guest until tho
ship was repaired.
It took two weeks to do that, and
Wharton was glnd, and bo was Alice.
Tho last evening of his stny, Alice, by
request, mndo some of tho now doubly
fnmous doughnuts.
"I'm going to take my souvenir to
my mother," observed Ralph, "and ask
her if Bho didn't think a young lady
who can produco such perfection Is
worthy of tho deepest remembrance."
"And then?" questioned Alice
nrcbly.
' "Why, then I'm going to comp back
and aBk your mother if I can havo tho
maker oC the snmo provided you arc
Willing."
DIDN'T FEAZE THE PROFESSOR
Snake Expert Got Out of Rather Tight I
Fix In a Somewhat Clever
Manner. !
rhere Is a certain professor of nat-
urnl history who delights In propound-
lug rnteh questions to his class, nnd ,
one young fellow, who had boon caught
by one. determined to get even. At
the next dims, therefore, he said
gravely:
"Professor, you hnve mndo a special
study of snnkoH, hnve you not?"
"Yes, I think I am fnlrly well In
formed ns to that branch," the profes
sor responded.
"Then, professor, you can undoubt
dly Inform mo on n point which,
while doubtless simple, puzzles me.
May I nsk you n question?"
The professor iicgnn to fool uneasy,
but there was nothing to reply but
yes."
"Then. sir. whnt I desire to know Is,
whero does n snuke's tall begin?" the
young fellow n sited gravely.
The professor was silent for n mo
ment, nnd n titter began to run over
tho room, which Increased to a roar as
io professor replied calmly:
"That is quite simple; It begins nt
the end of tho snake which Is not the
bend."
WILL TUNNEL UNDER STRAIT
Japanese Authorities Said to Havo
Decided Upon Engineering Feat
of Magnitude.
Several months ago announcement
wns made that the Imperial govern
ment railways of Japan Intended to
build n tunnel under the Shimonosekl
strait. Tills strait separates the main
Island of the Japanese group, Hondo,
from the smaller lslnnd of Kiushu at
the south. It Is now crossed by n
car ferry, which Is rapidly becoming
Insufficient to meet the demnnds that
are made upon It. Two years are to
be spent In studying the geological
formation of the sea bed In the strait
and In drafting of Uio general plan
of work In preparation for tho actual
undertnklng of tunneling, so that the
real work will not commence until
1021. Engineers nnd workmen will be
vent to America nnd Europe to make
u study of whnt has been achieved In
these countries In the wny of tunnel
engineering. The line Is to be seven
miles long, one mile of which will be
entirely under the sen. The approxi
mate cost of the undertaking will be
about $10,000,000 nnd the work is ex
pected to lie completed In 1828. Scl-

What's In a Number?
An aero squadron, preparatory to
ho start for the front, wns being
Initiated again Into the mysteries of
close-order drill. While most of the
men knew every nut, bolt nnd
square Inch of canvas on the planes,
they were more than hazy about the
forgotten details of their apprentice
ship days In the army.
"Squads right!" bellowed the com
manding officer.
The mnjoiity of the squadron man
aged to get there somehow or other,
but No, a, rear rank, fourth .squad,
was totnlly lost. He maneuvered
nlmlessly nbout the field for a time.
trying to find his place, and finally
walked Into the nrms of the enp-
tnln.
"Here, you, where do you belong?
Whnt's your number?"
The buck snapped out of his trance.
"No. 28152(5. sir." he nnnounced.
The Home Sector.
Small Girl's Criticism.
Little flve-yenr-old Lois bad been
told not to be In such a hurry when
sho put uway her playthings, to tnke
little more care and pack them
straight. One evening her grandma
was taking her home after dark. As
they were walking along tho street
lights were turned on. She looked up
nnd usked: "Grandma, who turned all
of those lights on nt once?" On being
told a num nt the electric light plnnt
turned them on, she said : "Well, then,
who turns on nil the lights In the
sky?' Grnndmn told her God did thnt
Noticing thnt the new moon was tilted
at n different angle from what she nnd
noticed before, she snld rather-disgust
edly: "Well, I wish God would take
Just a little more time when he turns
on the lights nnd turn thnt moon on
straight while he t nbout It."
This Half-Dollar Rare,
Ever since the news thnt a silver
half-dollar of 185,1 brought $2,M)0 wan
published throughout the country a
few years ago, there has been u great
er misconception us to this coin than
nny other ever struck by the United
Stntes mints. This arises from the
fact that there nre- two kinds of half
dollars of 1853. Tho rare variety 1ms
no nrrows nt the dates and there h no
sunburst on Its reverse.
Only two specimens of this coin are
known to be In existence, llnlf Inl
lars of 1S53 with arrows nt date md
sunbursts on the reverses nre verj nu
merous, however, nnd they hnve Tie.
qucntly dushed the hopes of holders
who were unfamiliar with tho dis
tinction between tho two varieties of
the coin.
A Pessimist's Observation.
"We have no army of tho uneni
ployed."
"I don't know," rejoined Mr. Grow
chcr. "After wntchlng a few of the
helpers who have (nine nlong in con
nection with various kinds of work, 1
have concluded that we have a large
number in n statu of unemployment.
The difference Ib that they got paid
for It." '
