1t isn't very nice task to punish
pussy If you're fond of her, but there
are times when she must be chas-
tised. This is how to do 1t, according
to Louis Vain, the great authority on
the fascinating feline. In the first
place, don't actually strike the cat.
says the London Answers. A blow
merely numbs 1t. And when the spine.
which is the most sensitive part, is
struck-particularly If the cat Is old
1t is likely to spring at the striker.
When pussy does anything wrong,
frighten the wrongdoer by striking a
stick on the ground. A cat is most
sensitive to sounds, and will connect
this new noise with what it has done.
1t feels more intensely than most ami
mails; hence its supposed savagery in
cases. Cats are highly electrical. and
it is very good to have one perch on
ones shoulder or knees.

Pay Your Bills Promptly

Pay as you go is 8 good rule, and owe no man a dollar is wise say ing and worthy of all acceptation. The man who is slow to pay, or finally succeeds in beating hir bills. not only works a harm to the indi- vidual dea Ter, but he hdrts all business.
 Under this head the New York Mail has the following wise sug gestions:- =
 The man who can pay his bills and doesn't is one of the public enemies who is responsible for the slow recovery of business. He c:ipples industry, restraints trade and creates long line of debtors who cannot pay. He is a brake upon prosperity. a drag upon hu- manity.
 "He has been a deterrant factor in business the past five years, ranking in depressive effect next to the fnyacial furry of 1907. The habit of deferring payment, con tracted anew in 1907. has become chronic with individuals, firms and and has served to harass business to an extent ap- precia ble only to the bankers who carry the accounts 70 the retailers and smaller manufacturers.
 By withholding payment of one bill procession of difficulties is formed. A hoards his cash and embarrasses B, who has to put off c. and o is pressed to the wall.
