"BelIinq the Cat.v

"Who will bell the cat:' is a curl
Gus old proverb. famous in parable and
in history. The mice, says the para
bic, held a consultation how to secure
themselves from the cat, and they re-
solved to hang bell about the cats
neck to give warming when she ap-
preached, but after they had resolved
on doing it they were as far off as
ever for who would do it?
Both parable and proverb have inn
mortali2ed themselves in history.
When the Scottish mobiles met at Stir.
ling in body they proposed to take
Spence, the obnoxious favorite of
James H., and hang him and so get
rid of him.
"Ah." said Lord Grey, that's very
well said. but who'll bell the cat?"
"That will H. said the black Earl
Angus. He undertook the task. accom-
plished it and was called Archibald

TANGO KNEES AND TOES
Dance Proves Injurious to Those of
Both Sexes

San Francisco, Feb. 1.-THE tango
toe is little brother to the tango
knee, and it's a poor tea dance at
which they can't be found together
The tango knee owes its discovery
to Mrs. Coleridge Ertz whose grace
full gyrations with Count Montgelas
have been the envy and despair Of
every tea dance dilettante. Mrs.
Ertz blames an aqueous knee cap
which has kept her off the ST. Fran
els dance floor for days on the dips
and bends that the tango demands.
The tango toe is masculine af-
Fiction and in it there is more reason
for limping than laughter. AS a tan
60 penalty it antedates the tango
knee by some weeks. 1t is month
or more since Freddie Burnham, who
has come unscathed through many
adventures by land and sea, discover
ed that he had toe that interfered
not only with his dancing, but with
his sleeping.
In despair Burnham secluded him
self on his ranch up at Susan and
bathed his feet in its famous mud.
The relief it gave made 1t possible
for Burnham to slip into town for a
week and tango occasionally.
Burnham's limp attracted attention
at the tea dances, and it was not long
with crowd similarly affected. The
symptoms We're the same in every
case the ball of the foot tender and

DR.. o. j. Rust, who left
Tacoma about a year ago TO
take a post graduate course
on the eye. has returned to
Tacoma and assumed charge
of the offices which he es-
tablished at 332-333 Provi-
dent building five years ago.
During this period DR..
Rust fitted the eyes of more
than 10000 patients with
absolute satisfaction in ev-
cry instance. However, he
realized that to keep right
up-to-date in the fitting of
glasses and the treatment of
diseases of the eye, 1t is
necessary to take post grad
uate work at least once in
five years. About a year
ago he left Tacoma and
took up this work. He re-
turns to Tacoma with the
newest ideas and instru-
ments for the perfect test
ing of the eyes, as well as
the treatment of all diseased
conditions of the sight.
Numbered among his pa
tents during the past five
years are prominent lawyers,
physicians, business men,
club women and even the
present chief Of police.
DR.. Rust maintains that
he will still adhere to the
price that built up his pres
ent business-that is, he
will continue to sell the
