When Mr. Bowser got up the other
morning he realized that his fifty-fifth
birthday had dawned. He had had the
day IN mind for two or three weeks,
but had been careful not to mention
the matter to Mrs. Bowser. His idea
was to jump over the day without

He feared it misht be brought up at

seemed to have entirely forgotten that
the month of March had anything to do
with him. He got away from the house
to draw a long breath of relief. and

street car appeared to notice that he
was a relic of the last century

again at { o'clock in the evening that
he got a jar" When Mrs. Bowser had
