SOME TIMELY MATHEMATICS
Bsrs. Bosom DipIOmaticaIly Discovers
That Princess Katherine
Scored 92 - List of
Prize Winners.

"Its just to mean for anything, and
I shall take my cat and go homei She's
taken two prizes, already, anyway, so l
don't care for your old cat Show" said
Mrs. Nudge, eXcitedly yesterday at the
cat show.
Mrs. Nudge owns Princess Katherine,
a scornful Ahgora beauty, the belle of
many cat shows. The princess had been
pronounced second to no other cat at
other cat shows. Naturally, her mistress
expected her to shine at this latest fe-
line exhibit.
But" explained the superintendent,
Mrs. Bosom, Practically and pathetically,
Il have added up this column again and
again, and Princess katherine gets just
ninety-one points. Now, Bob Ingersoil
has ninety-two points to his credit From
out of their respective cushioned cages
the ungallant Bob glared at the royal
katherine The princess mistress glared
at the superintendent of the show.
Besides, continued Mrs. Bosom, with
increasing assurance Bob being a male
cat is entitled to the prize, anyway.
The female cats, even if they have the
same number of points as the male, must
take second place"
The princess gave q scornful meow,
and retreated in high dudgeon to the
rear of her cage. The arrogant Mr..
1ngersoll purred aggravatingly and ogIed
blue-eyed Persian across the way. Mrs.
Nudge continued to glare.
Added Up Once More.
'"To please you," announced Mrs Be-
Ron, automatically, 81 will again add up
this column Of figures
The result of this seventh addition
caused Mrs. Bosom to give a little cry
of surprise. The princess glided
haughtily to the front Of the cage Mr.
9ngersoll removed his eyes from the blue
eyed Persian and surveyed the mathema-
tician with severe displeasure. Mrs
Mudge's glare relaxed into an expression
of intense interest
"a Its really 92,'' said Mrs Bosom, apollo
geticalIy. ST made the mistake in car
Tying. Not" she continued hastily,
sthat 1t makes any difference in the
prize, for Bob is still the winner, al
though he and the princess have the
same number of points"
Mrs. Nudge considered and consulted
some rules pasted in neat little blue
book. Then she looked with some UNI
certainty at Mrs. Bosom. Finally she
held out her hand and the two women
embraced. Mr.. Ingersoll deliberately
winked at the blue-eyed Persian. The
princess flirted her tail scornfully.
