TOOK AWAY HIS APPETITE
lection to Sharing the DeIlcaey
With Restaurant Cat.

Until recently Detective Sergeant
Tim Bailey was a lover OF mince pie.
Today II anyone offered him a bakery
full OF mince pies he would turn on
his heel and do a quick countermarch.
Figuratively he has had his fill OF the
good old pastry.
At dinner time one day not long
ago Bailey went into little restaurant
near the Hall Of Justice Three
boiled eggs. a cup Of Java and a ~ By
"a wedge OF mince pie" he told the
waiter.
Bailey polished on the eggs and
coffee In great shape, and then at.
tackled the pie. He had just begun
when big black cat that had been
reposing on the counter a few feet
away awoke. stretched, struck at a
vagrant fly with a chubby paw, and
then leaped into the display window
OF the place. The window was laden
with delicacies to allure the hungry
passerby.
The first thing that Tabby made for
was the remains OF the pie that had
been cut for Bailey. Kitty's first bite
was Bailey's last He dropped his
fork with n bang, reached for his hat
and rushed up to the counter.
"Sa-ay," he cried. what are you
running here, a restaurant or a ken
mel club?" He paid his bill, and was
away down the street before the
dazed keeper OF the place could catch
his breath.-New York Times.

The third man. evidently feeling out

just got back from the North of Scot
land and hadn't really had time, you
know, to think it out, but of course
he'd have to come into line, etc

CHAPTER ~.
Times Have Chanued


The SD OF the Browns had started
Tor La Tir on the same day that the
l2Sth OF the Grays had started for
South La Tir While the l2Sth was
going to new scenes, the SD was re-
turning to familiar ground. II had de-
trained In the capital OF the province
from which its ranks had been recruit
ed. After a steep incline. there was a
welcome bugle note and with shouts
OF delight the centipede's legs broke
apart! Bankers. laborers', doctors.
Wallets, butchers. manufacturers and
judges sons threw themselves down
on the greensward OF the embankment
to rest. With their talk Of home. of
relatives whom they had met at the
station, and Of the changes In the town
was mingled talk OF the crisis.
Meanwhile. an aged man was an
preaching. At times he would break
into a kind OF trot that ended. after a
few steps, In shortnees OF breath. He
was quite withered, his bright ewes
twinkling out OF an area OF moth
patches, and he wore a frayed uniform
coat with medal on the breast.
