| To kit 1t seemed as if the familiar
sitting room had suddenly grown
gloomy and depressing. and he lay
there wondering at the difference a wo.
mans presence makes.
Kit Caswell had been a confirmed
bachelor ever since he had come from
college. He rallied at marriage and
love until his victims swore that some
day they would have their revenge by
seeing him struggling against the adj
vances OF the little god of love.
Now he confessed to himself that
their dark prophecies had come true,
only they We're not dark prophecies.
He found, TO his surprise. that being ia
love was an altogether agreeable SEN
sation.
His face soon mended under Kitty's
care, but his heart was less easily
cured Kitty was friendly. but bliss
fully unconscious of his lovemaking.
There were little friendly visits to
the door with some dainty approved by
the feline species, brief chats In the
elevator and the lobby about cat nature
and education, but somehow Kitty's
absorption in the kitten Tended of the
tender speeches that hung trembling
on Christopher's tongue.
Several times he determined to put
his fate to the test, but some incident
restrained him until she had gone. 1t
was fit that finally brought his cour-
age to the proper point.
The kitten, as all kittens will. in
dulged in the luxury of fit, and Kit In
hot haste summoned Kitty to the res
cue. Her tenderness with the suffering
beast famed his love into a fierce
heat, and when she had gone back to
her own rooms he sat and applied pic
turesque expectations to himself for
coward. Then he crossed the hall and
knocked on Kitty's door.
Il want to talk to you about the cat"
he began lamely.
Is she worse?" asked Kitty anx-
iously.

She stood aside Hospitality, and he
entered the little den, strewn with its
half completed bits of china painting.

urged.

added Il don't think a bachelor should

worshiped her from afar ever since
she had come into the studio building
This was the first opportunity he had
had to speak with her.
You get some soap and tepid wa
ter" explained Kitty. "Then you souse
her well, dry her of and wrap her In a
blanket and hold her until she dries
out. You have an extra blanket?"
"Oh, yes," said Kit mendaciously
vowing that his steamer rug was none
too good for cat that had laid in Miss
Turner's arms.
Kitty handed the waif to Kit. "Have
you fed her;'
Sure" was the prompt response
"She had pint Of cream this morn.

yet"
You must not overfeed her." de.
creed Kitty. s'I'll bring you some fish
for her supper. All cats like fish. =
Then the door shut, and Kit went back
to his own apartments. assuring the
unenthusiastic kitten that she was
about to have the bath of her brief ex-
istence.
The preliminaries were simple
enough, though Kits ideas of tepid wa
ter were rather above the standard
temperature. Grasping the cake of
soap in one hand and the kitten In the
other, Kit soaped her and boldly
plunged the unsuspecting guest into
the water. As she touched the water
she gave vent to howl that frightened
Kit and made spring for the edge Of
the tub.
Kit dropped the soap and grabbed al
the cat, but his hands and the cat were
slippery with soap, and he Rugged her
to his breast to secure her This turned
the frightened little animal ON her
back. and in an instant Kits face was
streaked With crimson.
With howl he dropped the kitten
back into the tub. from which she
made her escape unhampered and
promptly vanished under the sofa In
the sitting room.
Kit bathed his face, smeared 1t with
salve and then started after the kitten

When Kitty knocked at the door an

Democratic Platform.
adopted at the Congregational Convention He'd
at Keyser, May 3, 1905.
The Democrats Of the Second Congress
sional District, in convention assembled. do
reafsirm the principles Of the Democratic
party, RS laid down by the party aud enun-
ciated by its various party platforms.
We recognize and regret the growing ten
dency of Corporate Control of our Govern
mental affairs, both State and National and
the ubiquitous system by which the earnings
of the people are appropriated. by aid Of
class legislation, to the use of the favored
few, and we pledge the candidate OF this
convention, when elected to the Congress
of the United States. to stand for the inter-
est of the whole people in the contest now
coming on between the public interest on
one hand and corporate greed on the other.
We recognize the disposition on the part
of the kings of finance to organize trusts for
the purpose of increasing and controlling
the price of the necessarles Of life aud we
therefore pledge the candidate Of this con-
yention. when elected. to urge the adoption
of such laws as will place upon the free list
all articles 80 controlled by trusts az to arbit-
rarly increase the price thereof to the con-
sumner.
We believe and assert, most emphatically,
that TAXATION Tor Sta1e purposes shOuiu We
levied and collected upon all persons aud
corporations according to the amount and
"a ne of property owned by such persons or
corporations.
That we regard the constantly broadening
corporation laws of this State. the giving to
corporations chartered here more powers
and privileges over the people, for the sake
of competing with other States in an effort
10 secure charter taxes from them. as q
menace to our rights and liberties aud dan
gerous tendency in our legislative enact
ments,
Ne denounce those fake tax reformers.
persons in this State who for personal and
political purposes have enacted and now are
carrying into effect new and radical tax laws
under the preteBee Of seeking to give the
people relief from taxation.
That we believe the only practical way 10
reduce taxation is TO reduce public expendi-
lures, and call attention TO the reckiessly
exfrasagant expenditures of the past Repub-
lican Legislature. In every branch of state
government and ali other state institutions
we urge economy and consequent reduction
of taxes instead Of the deyising of new
schemes for raising public revenue.
