she replied. GIVE worked for Ii of the

before have I seen such carvings on.
I won't stay in a house where the man
is craZy!'
"Crazy, you dolt!' shouted Mr.. Bow
ser. "But do you know what this in

"NO, nor | don't care. l want my
wages for II days, hours and 10
minutes, and you can get your own
breakfast. 1t wasn't minute ago that
you were abusin Of my own brother
Patrick"
She rushed up stairs to find Mrs.
Bowser, and after moment Of dis
enlargement Mr. Bowser went ahead.
AS Patrick Henry's great speech had
been lost in the shuttle, he turned to
"Bingen on the Rhine" He had spo-
ken that as a boy at school exhibitions,
and with one eye on the cat and one
ear listening for what might happen
up stairs he began:
ga soldier of the legion lay dying in Algiers;
There was lack of womans nursing,
There was dearth-
"There was dearth-dearth-d
of something or other, but I'll be hang
ed if / can remember what it was.
Let's see."
He might have got it that there was
a dearth Of WOman's tears but for the
cat. His voice had grated on her
nerves till every hair stood on end.
She had come to conclude that the in
strument was a cat exterminator or
feline discOurager and that her life
was in danger. Therefore as Mrs.
Bowser and the cook came down stairs
to make a mutual and fearful appeal,
she sprang for Mr.. Bowser. The at
tack was so sudden that he went down
under it and pulled the photograph
after him, and for minute there was
a mix up to beat the band. Then he
rose to his feet and looked for the cat.
She had disappeared. He lifted up the
phonograph and banged it and slam
med it until only splinters remained.
Then he turned to Mrs. Bowser and
the cook and said:
'Ladies, the exhibition is over. One
of you can notify your lawyer to see
me tomorrow about divorce, and the
other can take her bundle and Der
wages for II days, hours and 10 min
utes and go to Halifax NJ. QUAD.
