folly he had gone so completely to the
bad that he was stopping his old-time
acquaintances on the street and asking
them for dimes. One man who had
known him in his better days took him
home and fitted him out with clean
linen, nice tweed suit, hat and shiny
shoes. What was the result? The man
who one day had been furtively wheed-
ling dimes from acquaintances next
day walked along the street with his
head up and had no trouble whatever
in borrowing one, two or five dollars
from every person he recognized.

Left Behind When ship Sailed Puss
Boards Another Vessel and Fol-

Sailors and officers Of the Norwe-
gian steamship Minerva, which sailed
for Baltimore to load coal, claim that
they have on board the original and
authentic "cat that came back" and
moreover this feline cannot be lost.
The sailors declare that the cat
boarded the Minerva of her own free
will at the Lamberts Point coal piers
over year ago, and that she at once
became favorite on board.
The steamer was then loading a
cargo of coal for Portland, Ore, and
in some way the cat got left behind
when she lifted anchor and steamed
on her 3,000-mile voyage.
She had been at her destination
eight days when one morning the cat
again walked on board, and the only
way the sailors could figure out how
she got there was that she had
slowed away below, but several days
later the mystery was solved when it
was discovered that after the Minerva
had loft Norfolk the cat boarded a
