She was n woman Of 80. with q do
mestic look. and II struck Mr.. Bowser
that she must know more or less about
the tonics Of our forefathers. He told
her Of the mixture and asked IL she
could think of anything to add.
"rve seen my brother make root
beer" she replied, land think lie put
in about dozen different things. They
say you can't get too much in It."
"No; l don't believe you can," he
mused. "rhe roots and barks are all
right for a foundation, but the stun
wants spicing up into an elixir. Ill
make something that kings Of old
would have howled for"
He found lemons and squeezed In q
couple. He found nutmegs and grated
up one. There was cinnamon, and he
threw in a liberal quantity. The last
thing he got hold of was q bottle OF
extract Of vanilla. He didn't intend
to use over half the contents, but wh(
nll went in he thought high vnniln0l
flavor might be the best, after all.
When the mixture had been given q
good boil, 1t was removed and carried
out into the back yard to cool. A
pitcherful was dipped out and placed
In the icebox for immediate use, and
while it was cooling Mr.. Bowser sat
down and felt that he had struck
good thing. The smell from that boil
er wasn't half bad. AS he sat watch
ing it half dozen cats appeared on
the back fences and smiled and yowl-
ed.
"They smell 1t and know good
thing" he chuckled. "If have any to
spare I'll leave 1t out here. I suppose
cats lose their appetites, same as
human beings. and l shan't begrudge
'em pint or so."
Half an hour later he went up stairs
with pitcher and tumbler. There was
JOY in his heart and n smile on his
face as he sat down and said:
"My dear Mrs. Bowser. II you want
the spring Of youth which Ponce de
Leon looked for In vain just Quaff &
glass Of this. II 1t don't knock five
years off your age, I'm goat."
Thanks. but don't care for any,"
