THE CATS NEEDS.

No cat has nine lives as we so like Z
make ourselves believe as an excuse fol
not taking care of them as we should. A
cat needs care. a nice comfortable HON.
and plenty to eat. She should lave Z
good meal two or three times n day
Kittnes must be fed at least four times
IA day. Then a cat should always have
fresh water where she can get at it, and
fresh milk at least once a day. Wher
she sleeps she needs a nice, warm, dry
bed. If she has these things she will
have one other thing that she needs. tina,
is some one to love her.
No child should be allowed to tease 2
cat and cruelty maui it around. just be
cause it pleases the child to do so or h
does not know any better. Instead of
telling the child that the cat will scratch
him if he hurts it, say that the kitty has
feelings that will he hurt as we'll as he
has.-irit

PINcusHIoN FOR THE MACHINE

An ingenious woman has made a
pincushion for the arm of the sewing
machine and it is one of the handiest
appliances in the sewing room. 1t is
made by putting strips of cotton over
the arm and then covering it with a
pretty cretonne or silk or any ma
terial suitable for a pincushion. The
pins can be put into this cushion in
trfce and it is a wonder that every
woman has not thought this ont for
herself and that such contrivance
has not long been in general use.
