Pussy walked into the pantry with
slow steps, smiled the air and looked

paper bags on the floor, and one mouse
who was behind a box ran into his

She walked over to the shelf where q
bowl Of cream sat, and jumped up;
then she waited a minute as IL listen

her head into the bowl and did not

Of meat that was on a plate and jump

IUNE, the month of roses, brides
and sunburn, is being given es-
pecial attention at the Palais
Royal. where a window depicting
wedding party Is attracting the attan-
ton OF those who pass this popular cor
ner. while inside a special demonstra-
ton OF toilet articles designed for those
who fear the rayages of the torried
summer sun is being held. The bridal
procession. which occupies one entire
section OF the G street window shows
the fair bride on her way to the altar
preceded by two pretty bridesmaids
dressed IN hlmy white lace gowns, and
carrying clusters Of bridesmaid roses.
A touch of color is given their toll

all enveloped with tulle veil She
carries bouquet OF Bride roses. Three
tiny flower girls bring up the rear of
the procession. wearing dainty sheer
white frocks. and carrying baskets Of
roses. The fact that this window is
surrounded every hour OF the day with
girls and matrons, indicates that the
old adage, ''all the world loves a bride"
still! holds good.
Inside the store. there Is a demon-
stration Of certain make Of toilet
