M|HEN Mr. Reynolds accom-
w panied by his wife. accepted the
position as the United States
consul to the capital of one of the
largest South American republics, they
took with them their only pet, Mistress
Tabby. a big Maltese cat with silky
gray fur, who bore the quaint nickname
"Prim Little Quaker Pussy"
Tabby did not like the tropical eli
mate, nor the pretty cottages sur
rounded by pineapple, orange and ba-
mana groves. Although Tabby had ac-
companied her mistress to many
strange places, and, real catlike al
ways became accustomed to her new
home, Tabby now was constantly
meowing and whining. She appeared
unhappy, suspicious and afraid to
leave the porch
One very hot day Tabby sat curled
up near a tree watching her mistress
asleep in hammock, swinging beneath
shady orange trees, taking her usual
afternoon slesta. The heat affected
Tabby, and she was soon a-winking
and a-blinking, catching mice in the
happy dreamland of the pussy cats.
All was quiet Suddenly out of the
grove crawled big poisonous rattle
snake, which glided slowly but surely
up to the poor unsuspecting sleeping
pussy and bit her several times
A physician was called immediately.
Tabby was given the best care, but
the deadly poison quickly took effect
and in great agony poor pussy closed
her eyes. never to open them again.
She was buried under an orange tree.
A little wooden head board, with the
word "Tabby" painted on it, marked
the spot.
For a long time Mrs. Reynolds was
disconsolate. Tabby had been her pet
for seven years. and she vowed she
would never have another one.
However, she often watched the al
most human antics of Chico. the young
monkey belonging to her gardener.
Jose, half-breed Indian. The monkey
would initiate his master, even assist
ing him in his garden work. and would
follow him about as faithfully as a
dog.
Noticing a big scar across Chieo's
face, Mrs. Reynolds euriously asked
Jose the cause
She was surprised and amazed to
hear the following story:
Chico had been the pet of young
officer OF the guard, but on account OF
his mischievous proclivities was given
away TO Jose.
Every day Chico had watched the
young officer shave, wash his face with
tologne, and then use the powder pun.

An additional cause for distress was
the fact that the public banquet with
