leader in the organization of what is
known as the "little entente" a league
of Cze'cho-Slovakla, Jugo-Slavla and
Roumanla, designed to guarantee their
Integrity and to prevent the return of
the Hapsburgs to the throne of Hun
gary. Asked why tills new cntento was
necessary, In view of the cxlstenco of
the League of Nations, Doctor Benes'
said: "It Is because the League of
Nations is not able yet to give com
plete security to us and because It
does not yet have the necessary In
fluence in central European affairs
which It may have some day. It Is
because it baB become Impossible for
democratic and liberty-loving nations'
such as Czecho-Slovakla to continue
to exist peacefully and build a pros
perous future that I have formed an
other league of nntlons which already
has had the effect "bt pacifying the people, dispelling War clouds, end raising
the national morale."
Doctor Benes admitted freely that his league had tnado provisions for a
military force in case of necessity, but added : "Our union is ono of defense,
pure and simple. Our treaty with Jugo-Slavla calls fo nld In case of attack.
With Roumanla no written ueaty exists, but' an alliance has been formed
through tho exchange of notes for the same purpose. Ours Is a defensive
union. Besides the military clauses in our treaties thero are. provisions for
the settlement of border disputes, and there are commercial agreements which
will be of the utmost Importance to Industry In all nations."

nilTTERFLIES' FAREWELL.
"Oood'by." said the golden butterfly.
'lt Is late for me to bo out and I .must
leave now. I huvo. como nround bo
Vituse- It Is what they cull Indian sum
"juier. "Thnt Is when another week of sum
mer tomes In the autumn when people
have almost beccmu used to cold
Heather.
"Hut they tiro glad to have tho week
of summer come Just the samel
"Still, I must say good-by now, for
there will be no more weeks of sum
mer or of Indian summer."
"Uood-by. too." said the black buttcr
lly with the two golden spots on his
wings, "for I also must be going."
He had golden spots on each fore
wing nnd two luvender-yellow ones on
the iwo back wings. Ho had black
feelers.
Ono could seo his spots right
through his wings they showed on
either side, on top and underneath.
There were two tittle orange spots
on each of his legs and at the right
side there were black feelers.
"Good-hy said the IlltV bumble bee,
who wus st;ll gathering honey fp-iu tho
flowers. "1 must go. away from the
out-of-doors, world, where 1 cannot
stand the cold which will be here so
soon now.
"Do you remember how hot It wns
during the summer? 1 remember one
day when the sen wns hczy and misty
with the heat nnd when the sun
seemed so hot nnd as ihongh he didn't
oven like It himself I I felt us though
he hnd kept getting hotter and hotter
anil then hardly knew how to stop him-
"self.
"And everything was aglow with tho
heat nnd with the grnyness of mist and
the red of the sun's rays as ho went to
(od with tho promise of another hot
flay.
"And then tho moon came out
dressed lu his fancy dress suit which
makes him a half moon.
"And the tide seemed lazy In the
bent. And the breakers of the ocifen
could hardly move, they felt so hot.
"It does seem so funny when the cool
days come to think of those hot days,
for they seem so far away.
"Yes, and In the summer when It Is
hot we cannot think of what It Is like
when It la really cool. Woll, I must
gather more honey nnd be off to tho
hive. We have work to do. you know.
Work All tho Time.
Wo've stored up a great deal for the
winter, but wo still can find plenty to
do."
"You never rest, do you?" asked tho
golden butterfly.
"Never," said the bumble bee. "Wo
mustn't rest, for you know we must al
ways llvo up to tho old saying."
"What old snylng?" nsked the black
butterfly.
"It Iiiik been said of us," the bumble
bee answered, "thnt we Improved ench
shining hour.
" "So wo must nlwnys he busy, you
see, and not make that old saying
chnnge.
"Wo work all the time, all tho
time."
"Hut," said the golden butterfly,
"how do you know you're Improving
each shining hour?' Aren't tho hours
all right us they are?"
"Yes," said the bumble bee, "thnt
may be so, and they may be nil right
spent Idly by some people. I don't sup
pose the hours care so very much,
though I have hoard they huted to bo
wasted."
"But they like to give pleasure and
to have people take rests and enjoy
-themselves, too," suld the black but
terfly. "How do you think you can Im
prove each hour when ench hour Is tho
way It Is, one wuy to tho butterfly nnd
another to the bumble bee?"
"And how do you know that tho
hours arc shining?" the golden butter
fly asked.
"Ah." said the bumblo bee, "we don't
stop to puzzle qut what each word
means, for words to us aren't Impor
tant like honey and work nnd such
things.
"But we know that tho buying means
that bumble bees never waste any
time. We know It menus that It has
alwuys been said of bumble bees that
they work, work, work all the time.
"And so wo keep that saying true by
working all the time. I must be off
now ; "good-by."
"Good-hy," the butterflies said, anil
turning to each other they added :
"Those bumble bees overdo things
They work so hard that they've for
gotten how to pluyl And (hut Is tho
saddest thing about their lives."
THE senmstress who Is equal to
making simple frocks for herself

even the simplest of them with distinc

In embellishments. Dress thnt tins
both simplicity nnd originality simply
compels ndmlrntlon from those who
know the best when they seo It, and
these are the elements that gentle
women love In nil apparel, from lints
to shoes. Above all they are the ex

should (ook for, nnd look until slje

It often happens that n good peatn
