Water Turns to Wine Parents are the explanation of the modern miracles which take place annually in the region of Halle. Ger many, in that water there has the habit of turning to wine. As St. Martin, whose day is celebrated there, is credited with being able to change water to wine, children fill jars with water and command him to perform the miracle. The peasants of the region are fortunately not above practicing an innocent fraud. They secretly refill the jars with wine and let the children discover that the saint has answered their prayers. > Bargains In Hardwareltems SATURDAY ONLY H. C. KAMHOLZ West McHenry S4.25 13-gal.

UESS I'll take a smoke," said James Van Dorf, after traveling bags had been stowed away, the coats had been hung, footstools had been pulled out and the three other members of bis party appeared to be comfortably supplied with papers or magazines to their liking.

"Nov, for goodness sake, Jim, don't forget we're here and stay jn the smoker all evening," cautioned Molly Van Dorf, who had traveled with her husband times enough to know that he was liable to do that Very thing. The limited pulled out of the union station a few'minutes later and in due time the conductor came through the car to collect tickets. Tom produced four through tickets, remarkinjg casually, "You'll find my brother-in-law in the smoker:" As it happened, however, Mr. Van Dorf had not gone to the smoker; instead he "had stepped out on the deserted observation platform where he proceeded to enjoy his cigar and the passing panorama of the city and suburbs. -There the conductor found him. "Mr. Pritchard has my ticket," he mumbled without taking the cigar from his mouth, "going to Banff."

"Six dollars isn't enough to monkey with," a holdup man told a sandwich1 shop proprietor at Dixon, 111., after looking into the cash register. The bandit then walked away.

"Are you, too, taking a wellearned rest?" inquired the lady pleasantly. "Yes," said Mr. Van Dorf, "in fact this is the first vadation I've taken in five years." "And where are you going to play and who are your playmates to be?" asked the pleasant lady coaxingly. "Oh, I'm with a party," he answered evasively, beginning to suspect that it might be well for him to be getting in before Molly sent Tom to find him. "Oh, please $on't let me drive you away," cried the lady as he started to rise, "you haven't half finished your smoke and I'm going to leave you to enjoy it in peace." Mr. Van Dorf relighted his cigar. He'd take a few more puffs anyway before going inside. But just as he was about to leave a man appeared who took the lately vacated seat next to him. "Got a match?" asked the stranger, taking a cigarette from a case. "Fine night," he went on after lighting up. "Are you going far?" "Canadian Rockies--Banff--Lake Louise," replied Mr. Van Dorf. "Oh, so you're touring," said the man, "with & ^arty, I suppose." "Uh-hoh," said Mr. Van Dorf, beginning to feel a trifle irritated. "Many in your party?" "Four," answered Mr. Van Dorf shortly. Gosh darn it! he thought, why were people so interested in where he was going and whom he was with? "Four!" exclaimed the man in a surprised tone. "Did I understand you to say four?" Mr. Van Dorf arose. "Since it seems to interest you," he said coldly, "I am traveling with my wife, my brother-in-law and his wife. Let me bid you good night." "Just a moment, old chap, do you mind telling me your brother-inlaw's name?" "His name is Pritchard, but I assure you, my good man, if you are a detective your clues have led you far afield." "Ha-ha-ha," shouted the man, "the joke's on us all right. Did you tell the conductor that Mr. Pritchard had your ticket?" "Certainly. He has all four of our tickets." ."Listen, old man, you see we're a party of ten being conducted on a tour to Banff by a Mrs. Pritchard and the conductor understood you to say that Mrs. instead of Mr., so our Mrs. Pritchard delegated the lady who talked to you earlier and myself to find out if you were trying to horn in on her party. It's been tried before, you see, and this really looked like a clear case." • • • "Where in the world did you meet all those tourists, Jim?" asked Molly the next day in the diner "they're not even in our car."

Discords are entirely a matter of the mind. As far as the musical instruments are concerned, there is no difference between harmonious chords and discords. They simply consist of various kinds of vibrations of the strings or other parts of the instrument. The harm done to pianos by unskilled musicians and children is due rather to the "thumping" and general ill-treatm^ nt. Musical combinations which are considered "chords" by some people are classed as rank discords by others. This is largely a matter of taste and education.
