terrible set back in the accounts com,
ing from all directions concerning the
uncertain temper of these pets and
the danger connected with haudlinC
them. The Globe has collected a few
Of these for the benefit of the old
maids aforesaid and others interested.
Your pet cat may be an Innocent
looking little feline, but danger turks
in its touch.
It's SILK hair may carry a malignant
disease. It's velvet-sheathed claws anv

scratch. It's pointed little molars are
sometimes the causes Of blood boison-
ing.
During the past few weeks in Mlchl-
gar and other states and in England
as well, several shocking incidents OF
the dangerous character Of cats have
been made public and in the most no
table Of all these the victim is no less
a person than the charming Lady Slbil

Great Britain.
Lady Sib now lies at the point of
death, and II she recovers Il may be

dreadful affair is accentuated by the
fact that Lady Sybil was to have been
married this autumn to the Earl Of
Beauchamp, and preparations for the
marriage were in progress. The we'd
ding has been indefinitely postponed.
According to the accounts Of her ILL
ness from London, IL appears that on
the day after she had fondled the cat
a peculiar eruption appeared on Lady
Sybls cheek. The next day It was
much worse Since then II has spread
over the whole side Of her face. The
cause was a mystery. Some one
suggested the cat. The suggestion was
met with ridicule. At last the cat was
examined. Beneath it's beautiful fur
was found symptoms Of the same dis
ease which had attacked its mistress.
The cat was killed, Lady Sybil still
suffers.

Penny Postage.

Representative C, W. Smith, of Il.
Hnois, says:
"The first bill Of national import.
ance I will introduce when Congress
Convenes will be one providing for
penny postage.
"In the past three Congresses I have
introduced my bill to give the people
penny postage, and / have received let
ters from every section OF the coun-
try endorsing the measure. I did not
press the bill, however, for the reason
that the postal revenues could not well
stand the reduction at the time, and
because the expenditures Of the coun-
try were exceedingly large, growing
out of the Spanish war.
"But now the time has arrived when
penny postage can be given consider
alton by Congress, and 1t can be
adopted without crippling the revenues
of the postofiice In the face OF the re-
duction of S40.00O0O0 I'm war taxes we
have a constantly growing surplus in
the Treasury, and, besides, the amend
ed regulation made by the Postmaster
General relating TO second-class mail
matter will make a saving in the pos
tai revenues of something like $4,000
900.
with these changed conditions, I
can now press the passage Of my pen
ny postage bill. 1t cannot consistently
be opposed on the ground that the
revenues Of the Government will not
warrant the reduction in the postage.
"Of course, ! know that at first there
will be a falling on in the postal re-
ceipts. but the eventual increase will
more than make up for the loss. This
was demonstrated when we reduced
the postage from to cents
"We have the richest country and
l.e richest and best Government on
earth. and we can AFFORD to give the
people the cheapest postage In the
world. Penny postage will he a hoom
to our merchants, and II will add to
the prosperity of the country In more
ways than one"
