Heavens, mol" answered the Goth
amite. st seems to me that that is
rather grewsome souvenir"
''Not at ALL" answered the western
girl; "it is decidedly dainty, and I'm a
little surprised that New York is SO far
behind the times. The fad started in
this way. When the daughter of one
of our big western politicians was six
months old he had a model of her little
finger cast in gold. Around the little
dimpled digit is ring of turquoise,
which is her birth stone, and it makes
lovely charm for her betrothed's watch
chain. He valued it SO much that it
set other men to thinking, and the re-
suit is that as soon as a girl wraps one
of these chaps around her own little
finger sufficiently for proposal to fol.

clutches and claws everything in reach.
Dixie is a physical freak. He is a
short-haired Angora, though bred from
Joe, the famous Persian. His mother
was scarcely less aristocratic. and Dixie
is the only short-haired member of that
distinguished long-haired family of
which Echo (Dixie's brother) is the
most noted amongcat fanciers.
Dixie is beautiful animal. His hair
is fine and white and his ears are like
twin sea shells. The heart of rose is
no pinker than his little nose. His eyes
are as brilliant as emeralds, and he is
us clever as trick dog-shakes hands,
stands on his hind legs and jumps
through hoop.
