hen were in partnership in lnanger.
Between them they have three white
kittens and eleven eggs. The nen was
sitting on eight of the eggs and one
of the klttens, and the cat was lying
on the other three eggs and ccddling
the other two kittens when the novel
menage was discovered. When the hen
goes TO eat the cat tries to keep all the
eggs warm. When the cat goes TO
seek food she, leaves her kittens in

The Conductors Mistake.

A conductor on the O'Fallon Park
division of the st. Louis and Subur-

dollars and bills of larger denomina-

carrying tiny infant boarded his

for her fare she handed him s. bill.

Kentucky Pensioners.

Kenucky has 2S. 900 pensioners who
are now being cared fer by the Louis.
VILE Pension Bureau. Most of these
are from civil war, but there are
veterans of the Mexican and Indian
wars and growing representation
from the Spanish American war.
Many widows of veterans who took
part in the war of 1912 are receiving
checks quarterly from the Louisville
Office, and, in spite of the dimunItion
to be expected from deaths, the de-
crease In the number sent out is small.
The Louisville Office distributes $1,0 o.
900, each quarter to the pensioners, an
average for each person of about $l2 a
month. That it is eagerly received is
shown by the fact that the vouchers
are always sent IN early and in plenty
of time for an early distribution.
The sendings put OF the checks takes
two weeks. A large part of the money
goes to colored pensioners. .-Ex.

IGNORANCE OF WOMEN.
Many of Them Don't Even Know
How to Sign a Check.

The average woman's Ignorance of

harder to understand.
Even clever educated women are
guilty OF commercial breaks which
should be reserved for idiots and in

this is not true.
A writer in Success tells of woman
who presened cheek for payment to
the paying teller of her bank. he
passed it pack to her with the request
that she be kind enough to indorse It.
The lady wrote on the pack Of the
check:
II have done business with this
bank fol many years, and l believe 1t
to be all right.
Another society woman in New
York presented a check for payment at
the bank and the teller told her tnst
it was not signed.
"Oh, do they have to be signedr''
she responded. What an awful lot
OF red tape there Is in banking bust

told the teller that there must be a
