The Cats lie. Party.

Five pretty little pussy-cats. invited out
to tea,

''Then 20. MY darling children" said the
happy mother cat.
The pretty little pussy-cats went out
that night TO tea;
Their heads were smooth and glossy
black: their tails We're swinging
free:
They held their things as they had
learned. and tried to be polite
With snowy bibs beneath their chins
they We're pretty sight.
But ah. alas for manners coed, and coats
as soft as silk,
The moment that the little kits were
asked to take some milk
They dropped their spoons, forgot to
bow. and-ch, what do you think!
They uut their noses in the cups, and all
began to drink!
Yes. every naughty little ki. set UP a
new for more:
Then knocked the toacups over quick,
and scampered through the door.

of an exciting encounter between the
family dog and an unexpected caller,
and of the various and unexpected re-
suits which followed it.

He flew at the man. caught him by the

Ny mother taking fCr granted that
the man was bitten. and that lie was
very angry, ventured to the door t.
ask about it.
There stood the veg table man, hold

he saw her lie asked in Il very mild
tone If she would please lend him i
thread and needle.

Vida gave him stout thread and

Meanwhile my mother, quite taken

him two dollars.

Some weeks after this my brother

An AppetizinR Sauce.

What is known as horseradish
sauce-a delicious combination of egg
and whipped cream with grated
horseradish-is now one of the most
popular of the appetizing sauces to be
served with cold meat. Take the pre-
pared horseradish, after it has been
grated and allowed to become thor
oughly saturated with vinegar.
Squeeze every particle of the vinegar
from three tablespoonfuls of the
horseradish, and mix thoroughly with
the yoke of an egg and half a tea
spoonful of salt. Add six tablespoon
fuls of whipped cream and mix again.
Serve with the meat, or on separate
dish bordered with parsley.

INCOME OF A KING.
The Kabuka of Uganda Has Smallest In


Probably there is no monarch living
and, nominally at any rate, ruling q
large kingdom who has so small an in
come as has the "kabuka," or king, OF
Uganda, who receives an annual sum
of 6 $50 from the British government.
Actually, Of course. Uganda Is British
possession, and is administered entire
ly by British officials, under the con-
troll of the foreign Office, but in name,
at least, the kabuka is still the ruler Of
the country. The king is only quite a
boy at present, and SO soon as he at
tains his majority, on the completion
of his eighteenth year, he will have his
allowance increased to f1.5OO year,
no mighty allowance on which to
maintain the dignity OF a reigning
monarch. In addition to this annual
pension the king Of Uganda has receiv-
ed from the British government
grant OF $50 square miles OF land as
private "garden"-surely one OF the
most extensive gardens to be found
anywhere in the world. This system OF
granting land to the leading natives
has been very largely adopted by the
British in Uganda, and all the King
family, together with the principal
chiefs OF the various tribes. have re-
ceived tracts Of country ranging from
16 to so square miles. for their own
particular use. In connection with this
annual allowance to the king OF Ugan-
da it is interesting to note the TACT
that at the present time the British
treasury Is providing pensions for sew
eral other dtlsky monarchs and their
relatives. Among these are the sultan
of Zanzibar, one or two rulers of minor
indian native states. the ex-king OF
Benin. and ex-King Prempeh OF Ash
anti, in addition to relatives OF Ceta-
wayo of Zuzuland. Thebaw OF Burmah
and the late lamented Lobergula OF
