Naughty Little Miss Shows Her Re-
sentiment When Presented to
Terrier.

There is little East End girl, still
under six, who reaches the limit in the
matter of sensitiveness. Likewise,
she has her points in respect to dead
gameness. She was taken out to Lake
wood about week ago to spend a
few days with her aunt The little
Miss played around in front of her
aunt's place for awhile. Then her
aunt let playful young terrier into
the yard, saying to the child
This is your little four-footed cou-

Five minutes later the aunt returned
to the front yard to call the kid into
the house, but she wasn't anywhere
to be seen. The fox terrier was play

alarm, but the little girl didn't turn
up. The aunt hustled to town. The
little girl was home with her mother.
She had walked right to the car for
town as soon as the fox terrier pup
was presented to her.
why didn't you stay at aunty's!''
her mother asked her in surprise.
"She introduced me to dos!' re-

exercised in having staged in his

Mr.. Worley took keen interest in
seeing that all ARRANGEMENTS were as
they should be. and under his direc-
ton and experienced guidance, all
was we'll.
The minstrels wouldn't have been
nearly as attractive and presented
such rich appearance of elegance,
