She dwelt among the untrodden ways
Adjoining Cedar Grove
A cat whom there were none to praise
And very few to love.
She lived unknown, and few could know
When Fluffy ceased to fuss;
But she is in her grave, and, oh,
The difference to us!
Near Wordsworth.
The Cedar Grove, N. J., printery, II.
II. Jacobus, proprietor, is in mourning
this morning over the demise of Fluffy
Roughhouse, the cat that could tell
time.
Although she was a creature of tem-
permanent, given rather to fits than to
friendliness, F1uffy's remarkable habit
of entering the printshop every day at
exactly 11:45 O'Clock was so sure and
welcome a signal for the lunch hour
that she had become dear to the hearts
of the bindery girls. They didn't have
to look at the clock; they just looked
at Fluffy and knew the time of day to
a second.
The fearful details of the tragedy can
of death told the tale. But Fluffy must
have entered the bindery Saturday
night to get possession of string at
tached to a piece of red paper, which
the gi had fashioned for the cats
delight.
After disporting with the simple toy
to her hearts content, Fluffy ate it,
string and all. Thereafter she disport-
ed involuntarily around the room with
out touching floor or walls in the most
thorough fit ever accomplished by a
single cat.
she fell into a can of printers ink,
and Topped out of it into a pot of glue,
and yesterday morning they found her
stuck to the floor in the doorway. her
long and beautiful tail pointing fate
fully toward the clock, which had stop
ned at exactly HAS o'clock.-New York

ERON OTHER PENS
KEEP YouR WORD.

A mans word is his stock in trade,
and it cannot be broken without in
juring his commercial standing. Many
good men grow careless of their word
and fail to see the Importance of keep
ing it until they have suffered some
serious consequence. There are those
whose word is said to be as good as
their bond. Whether it is or not, their
word must be good, for the world is
not easily deceived about such matters.
Keeping ons word is more often
a matter of habit than character.
Good men, with the best of intentions,
sometimes become careless in respect
to promise, statement or an en-
gagement, and, while no harm is
meant, it might as we'll be, for one
cannot habitually break his word with
out losing his caste as man of his
word Nothing is more essential In
business life as the element of con-
fidence, and confidence, after all, rests
he says he will do. This matter of
personal integrity cuts a larger figure
in business than we are sometim les
willing to admit. 1t is one of the de-
mands that business makes of men
to fulfil their words. Let business learn
to distrust a mans reliability as to his
word and it will soon discount his LA
bility as a business man.-Omaha Bee.
TAXING NOISES.
There should be new rule for tax
ing automobiles, the tax to be rated
according to the noise they make.
Speed is not the only fault of an auto
it is the outrageous noise it makes.
That is som etimes excruciating. One
may hear one of these Gathering ma
chimes three blocks away and for three
blocks after it has passed, but in the
meantime while it is passing life is
dismal and painful. A person cannot
work, talk or read, and time is worse
than wasted
That is the thing to tax-the noise.
the grief that is on the people OF
course, some people cannot afford any
thing but an old ramshackle machine,
but that is no reason why everybody
else should suffer. We are talking
these days about abolishing privileges,
and there is no privilege quite so OPP
pressive as that of running a clatter-
ing and ear-racking auto down a
street, spreading CONSERVATION in a
hundred homes
And those honks-tax out the clan
gor and shrek, and license no auto
with the hyena screech. Protect the
people from discord as you would
from a pestilence.-Ohio State Jour
