cation of cold winter evenings
Apples were originally made to eat.
Unfortunately man, with his Internal
genius for improving upon nature, has
changed all this. Now they are made
to sell.
In the good old days the common
citizen bought three barrels of apples
in the fall and stored them In the cell
lar. After supper he lit candle and
going to the cellar he picked out half
peck of russets, Brother Jonathans
and Baldwins which he ate with skill
and elation during the evening, depos-
lting the cores in the wrong place with
unerring accuracy.
We do not do this any more. We
are an eXtravagant nation, but we do
not go this far in our orgy OF expense.
Nowadays when an American feels like
absorbing an apple he stops at fruit
stand and buys for five cents highly
polished masterpiece which looks like
perfect joy and tastes like cotton bat
ting.
The old saying, IAN apple a day keeps
the doctor away" has been changed
to read, AN apple day turns your
creditors gray"
Apples are no longer grown in the
orchard behind the house. They are
grown two thousand miles away on land
which has been judiciously unloaded for
$500 an. acre by the former owner.
These apples are numbered, catalogued
and ripened under fly netting and when
they are finally picked, wrapped in
white chemises and shipped into the
innocent city districts they are finan-
cial obligation instead of light lunch.
Russell Sage was once deT1ded for dining
upon an apple but nowadays the man
who buys an apple every time he passes

Wv THEN the six toed kitty who
Nv had escaped from the world
of human beings landed in
Tabbyland, he did not know that he
was in the yard of the Tabby family.
In fact, although he knew that all
animals were friends in Tabbyland. he
was not quite sure just how he would
be received. Having six toes seemed
to be a stumbling block to him in more
ways than one
He sat out on the wood pile and
gazed at his paws. Yes, all six toes
were there, just as he mad known
Sometimes he hoped that some morn
ing he would wake up and have paws
like other kitties, but although he
looked carefully, they never changed
his whole life through
At last he saw smoke coming out
of the Tabby chimney and, brushing
himself, and smoothing down his FUR,
he went toward the house He did not
know what to expect so he stopped
and peeped in the window first. What
he saw, first made him laugh and then
made him scramble to get a foot hold
so that he could climb in the window.
There on the floor, tied up in end
less spOOls and simply making a wreck
of sewing basket were two of the
jOllieSt little kitty boys he had ever
seen. Their eyes twinkled and their
legs Flew round and round and they
were as alike as two peas.
Suddenly they seemed to hear noise.
They stopped and then. just as Six-tOes
dropped softly inside of the room they
darted out and shut the door behind
them. SiX-tOes covered against the
wall as another door opened and Mrs.
Tabby herself walked in.
The first thing she saw was the tiny
gray kitty shrinking against the wall
and the next thing was the overturned
sewing basket. She stepped full into
the room.
'iWell-whO are you. and what are
you doing in my house, to my sewing
basket2' she said. Six-tOes only Rugged

jump out of the window His little
pink tongue, which never would go
