Pensions for Cats and Horses.

Old age pensions are spreading.
But who would have thought of st.
Francis of Assist as contributing to
so modern movement? Neverthe-
less, the kindly saint who preached to
fishes and birds is still factor to be
reckoned with. AS witness the case
of the maiden lady who died in Lon
don recently and made provision in
her will for pensions for her cats and
horses. Her orders to her trustees
were to the effect that they are to pay
5000 a year for the care of each Of
her cats. They are also to see that
each animal is properly looked after
and treated with kindness. Her horses
are also to be provided for. not al
lowed to do harder work than they
have been accustomed to, or are to be
mercifully destroyed. All these un-
usual bequests are explained by the
further orders Of the will to the ef-
feet that the kindly provider is to be
buried in the full habit of the Order
of St. Francis of Assist. to which she
belonged.

THIS IS THE PAPER HANGER
Never Comes When He Promises,
critIcIzes Your Taste and Does
Just Exactly as He PIeases.

A paper hanger is man who prom
ises by all that he holds sacred to be
at your house on Monday morning at
o'clock, and sends word on Wednes-
day afternoon that he cannot come
until Friday.
He brings a bucket of paste and
some shears with him, and as soon
as he sees the paper you have bought
he says 1t will not do. He criticizes
your taste and judgment and shows
you why the pattern is utterly insult
ed to the room, until he convinces you
that you must send the paper back
and purchase the proper supply from
him, although you know very well
that he gets a commission. Then he
goes away to order the paper and you
continue to sleep on the davenport
until the following Tuesday.
You discover ere long that the laws
OF paper hanging are as immutable as
the laws Of the Medes and Persians,
and that no matter how you want the
room papered you are absolutely mis-
taken
If he weren't paper hanger he
would be a plumber But after this
you will welcome the snail-like plumb
er gladly
Gabriel will have to blow several
encores before he gets the paper-hang-
ing brigade to resurrect.
