When The
Sigr, Failed
By Nellie T. Anderson

copyright, 1911. by Associated Literary
PresS.)
Miss Bah Ellerton sat down and
wept.
4 healthy. goodlOOking girl of
eighteen does not weep just for the fun
of pulling her own nose as her tears
fall. Miss Bah had cause-great cause.
Her cat was dead.
There is no particular way TO de-
scribe a dead cat except to say that
she was loyal and faithful. good
mouser and her name was Pink" She
had been a cat for several years and
had got used 10 it. and she knew that
she was beloved by Miss Bah. That
love was returned. Never had that
cat given the girl an hours uneas!.
hess. She had occasionally taken an
hoar of TO stroll among the holly
hocks or interview tater-bmgs. but she
had never failed 10 come running
when her name was called in loving
tones.
Pink" WAS missed and called right
after breakfast. The calling was in
vain She was hunted for under beds,
IN the gordon, all around the pcrgola,
unGer the cGlrant bushes, and al
lnncih there Was find Alas, il was
cnly her dead body. She had climbed
an apple tree ate" Il sparrow, and in
4, ,ccndiug Had slipped and caught
Ter neck in crotch and s.rangled to
death.
There was no one else but the cook
at home. She heard the girls wild
walls and ran out, bit there was
nothing to be done. While every cat
has lime lives. if eight Of them are
choked out of her the ninth gives up
in despair and after kick or two
follows the others.
1t was when the cook reached up
and lifted poor dead pink" down that
the weeping took place. The cook also
wept She was good cook and her
pumpkin pies had no rivals. AS she
had left her bread in the oven, how.

WONDERFUL SAVING OF LIFE
Modern Sanitary Measure Have Cut
the Death Rate Of Chicago Almost
In Half, Statistics Show.

Modern sanitary measures and pre-
ventive medicine (which means no
medicine at alb are chiefly response
BILE for nearly doubling the average
length Of human life In Chicago, and
that within only one generation.
This statement Is clearly borne out
by statistics published by the Chicago
Health Department. and is only slight.
~ less true Of some other localities.
But the bald statement does not sufii.
GENTLY convey the whole truth. Look
at the figures: An average death
rate in Chicago during the whole for.
ty years previous to the last decade
Of PIG per thousand Of population.
During the past ten years the average
has been only 14.7. This means a
saving of l24.42l lives. for the ten
years. or l2.442 per year That is.
there were just that many less deaths
from all causes than there would
have been under former measures and
methods.
Does not that make the work ap-
pear worth while?
Nothing is palmer than that educa-
ton of the people. combined with a
willingness on their part to do the
best they know how, in the various
ways of taking better care Of them
colvoc il tho main source of this
splendid result. The greatest saving
of life has been among those diseases
most affected by sanitary administra-
ton and control.
A still better story is to be told II
the people will do as the Health De-
partment teaches there will be still
greater saving during the next ten
years.

Gregg Felt It His Duty to Investigate

ever, she could not stay to weep DER
long. She therefore dashed away her
tears to say:
"Never mind, dearie-you shall
have another"
"But she won't be Pink to met"
was the wailing reply.
"You can call her Rose or Violet.
then. You mustn't take on so. Spose
your dear mother had climbed that
tree and got hung by the neck! Think
how awfuller It would have been!"
"Yes, know, but Pink may have
called to ME when she found herself
strangling."
But she never did. Her first
thought was that she had made q
fool Of herself getting up that tree.
It's another cat we'll have inside Of
three days. Now be good and don't
cry any more"
II wouldn't feel so bad if-if-"
ri what. dearie?"
III It wasn't for the sign"
what sign?"
why. one day when I was at the
gate with the cat an old woman came
along and said II Pink died within a
year I must take It as a sign that I'd
lose the love Of my lover. The year
isn't up yet"
Nonsense on the old woman and
her signs"
Don't you believe IT."
"Of course not. You should have
made up faces at her"
"Oh. but did"
That's proper and right. honey. As
YOU have no lover how can you lose
his love-"
"l'ut I'm going to have. you know.
and | don't want any signs to come
poking along"
Don't you fear Some signs are
sure to come true. but this one is go
ing to fail If you bury Pink that
will surely make 1t fail There's an
