Ping Tote Du Crow
Sheriff Chas, Newton
Deputy Andy Waldron
JIM DAWSON and his wife started their married life with a different viewpoint. Jim trusted nobody — Maisie tx-usted everybody. By a series of incidents the pendulum was swung the other way and Jim began to be as trusting as Maisie.
Whereupon the very first person who happened along with a hardluck story was taken straight to Jim's heart. But the person in question happened to be one of a gang of bank-thieves and the result of Jim's trust was that he himself was robbed of a thousand dollars and made the goat in a little matter of the escape of one of the bank-robbers from jail. Jim tackled the situation, recaptured the robber and recovered his thousand dollars, but at the last minute he came near being put out of business by a trick of one of the thieves.
To his rescue came Ping, the Chinese cook, whom Jim had tumed out of the house on the previous day on an entirely unjust suspicion. So Jim came to the conclusion that trust was a matter of fifty-fifty — trust and judgment.

■yilE famous Ida of the song, is not the only one who loved sweet apple cider as little Leon Wolcott of Redbank, N. J., will testify. He discovered a new use for his father's auto jack and sells his cidal" to passersby. Mr. Victor Daniel Brenner is the man who designed the Lincoln Penny. He is a Russian bom sculptor who has won scores of the world's most coveted awards for his art. Then we are given a glimpse of Dame Fashion as she will appear in her summer togs. It is the fashion now to give exclusive models names to fit them, so your new gown of silver lace with a motif of embroidered roses will carry the picturesque name of The Three Roses, while a daring combination of red, blue and green satin, taffeta and straw \vill bear the interesting name of Poppy. The amazing part of Japanese movies is the ability of the actors to appear and vanish at
convenient moments. Just when the villian is going to murder the heroinebing — she vanishes into thin air. This issue of the New Screen Magazine closes with some funny answers that children attending the schools m New York City's ghetto, gave to exammation questions.
"The Story of the Jaguar."
Major Jack Allen Animal Hunt Special
THE Jaguar Club composed of fearless hunters, was always good for a yarn, for one could not belong to the Club unless he had captured a jaguar dead or alive, but no member of the club seemed to think that one could be captured alive. For that reason Dick Harraty felt that he ^yas taking the long end of a sure-thing bet when he wagered Major Jack Allen that there wasn't a man on earth who could capture a Jaguar alive.
Two days had elapsed now, and the Major had not been heard from.
"I knew I'd win that bet," said Harraty. "That beast is more than ferocious. I know, because I took one once, but I had to shoot him," and he launched into a highly spiced account of how he had been forced to shoot a jaguar in the Brazilian jungles. "So you see, fellows," he said, as he concluded his naiTative, "why I felt perfectly safe in wagering Allen $5,000 that he couldn't capture one alive."
The remark was scarcely out of his lips when a fast driven automobile wheeled into the gateway and stopped on the lawn. Dick and his friends ran down to meet the car for Major Jack Allen, "the man who never used a gun," had just debarked over the starboard wheel.
"Sorry. Dick. You loose the bet. Our friend the jaguar is in our midst and very much alive," and he pointed to a taupaulin heaving violently in the tonneau.
Dick wasn't convinced and he raised a comer of the nibber and let it fall again with an exclamation, while the Major launched into the details of the jaguar hunt without waiting to be asked. The three friends were so taken up with the story that when Allen had finished they started to walk to the club house.
"One moment, please," said Allen. "I believe there is a $5,000 check coming to me, is there not?" And there was.
