1t isn't very nice task to punish
pussy II you're fond Of her. but there
are times when she must be chas-
tised. This is how to do it. 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 it. 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.
brighten the wrongdoer by striking a
stick on the ground. A cat is most
sensitive to sounds, and will connect
this new noise with what 1t has done.
1t feels more intensely than most anil
mails; hence its supposed savagery in
cases. Cats are highly electrical, and
it is very good to have or perch on
ones shoulder or knees.

ing upon instructions, that night OBJ
served a light in q bedroom OF the
presumably unoccupied house. At the
moment that the light was noticed it
was extinguished.
Accompanied by a policeman, the
neighbor made forcible entrance
through the scullery window, and
quietly the two men made their way
TO the bedroom. The light of the con-
stables bulls-eye disclosed the head
of a man in bed, and the constable
promptly drew his truncheon. AS
promptly the occupant Of the bed
sprang out, and a desperate struggle
commenced
simultaneously a lady dashed across
the room shrieking, threw open the
window, clambered out, and began, at
considerable peril, to work her way
around the balconies. A second con-
stable, passing at the time, thought
that the lady was bent on suicide, but
those inside. the house dragged her
back into the room, and the facts be-
gan to assert themselves.
The captured invader Of the empty
house was the occupant, the lady was
his wife Their holiday arrangements
had suddenly been changed, but the
neighbor had not been informed of the
altered plans.
Happily no injuries resulted from
the encounter with the constable nor
from the lady's dangerous escapade.

to appreciate the joke.

KICKED FOR KISSING BRIDE
Youth Bids Goodby TO His "cousin,"
and Her Husband Takes
Offense.

New York.-A smacking kiss and an
irate husbands boot delayed the de-
parture recently OF 5000 passengers
for five minutes. The Kronprinz Will
helm was ready to sail at 10 a. m. and
all but one gang plank had been haul
ed ashore when a young man still
aboard decided it was time for him to
say goodby TO his friends.
In the party Of his relative were
three men and seven women. AS he
pressed the hands Of the men he
passed along and kissed each of the
women. In this manner he made his
way toward the gang plank, where
three young women stood.
The youth glanced at them and
caught hold of the prettiest girl, gave
her a smacking kiss and said:
"Goodby. little cousin, see you when
you come back"
The girls chagrin and surprise was
no greater than his when he found he
had kissed another mans bride, and
that his cousin was some distance
away. The bridegroom's anger was
great. Catching the youth by the
shoulder. he gave him a shove and a
boost with his foot and sent him head
long down the gang plank to the pier

slowly along the side Of the room on

walked as an old man sSuld walk, his

DOCTORS SHIFT. -
Now Gets Along Without II.

A physician says: Until last fall
used to eat meat for my breakfast and
suffered with indigestion until the
meat had passed from the stomach.
Last fall began the use of Grape
Nuts for breakfast and very soon
found could do without meat. for my
body got all the nourishment neces-
sary from the Grape-Nuts and since
then have not had any indigestion
and am feeling better and have in
creased in weight.
"Since finding the benefit derived
from Grape-Nuts have prescribed the
food for all my patients suffering from
indigestion or overlooking and also
for those recovering from disease
where l want food easy to take and
certain to digest and which will not
overtax the stomach.
II always find the results look for
when / prescribe Grape-Nuts. For
ethical reasons please omit my name"
Name given by mail by Postum Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich.
The reason for the wonderful
amount OF nutriment, and the easy
digestion of GrapeNuts is not hard to
find
In the first place, the starchy part
of the wheat and barley goes through
various processes Of cooking, to per-
fectly change the starch into dextrose
or grape-sugar, in which state II is
ready to be easily absorbed by tho
blood.
The parts in the wheat and barley
which Nature can make use of for re-
building brain and nerve centers are
retained in this remarkable food, and
thus the human body is supplied with
the powerful strength producers, so
easily noticed after one has eaten
Grape-Nuts each day for week or
ten days.
There's a reason" and 1t is ex-
planned in the little book, "The Road
to MELVILLE" in pkgs.
Ever read the above fetterf A new
one appears from time To time. They
are genuine, true, and full of human
Interest.
