SUFFRAGE BLACK CAT SAVED;
GOOD OMEN, WOMEN DECLARE
Restaurant Keeper Rescues Ebony
Feline Marooned by "Anti"

The fact that black cat took a paw in
a sunragist argument at Green's Hotel,
Sth and Chestnut streets, caused many
advocates OF the cause 10 believe that
good luck will crown the efforts OF their
sisters today In their battle across the
river Tom happened along Just as a
rather attractive sufragist was arguing
with an antisuffragist She had Just fin
ished telling her that woman had taught
man how TO live and walk and incidental
ly had taught him manners, when the cat
arrived.
He stared hard at the "anti' and
meowed approval every time the sun"
scored a point. To show his contempt
for the anti" Tom brushed against the
woman as though to push her out the
door. This caused a slight laugh from
onlookers.
"why don't you put the cat out" said
the anti instead OF looking on3"
mo use putting It out" said one by
stander. IF you put II out II will only
come back again"
"And you would have to kill It nine
times" ventured a youth who was strong
for the "suffs."
At this the "anti" lost her temper com
pletely. and dragging the cat outside,
put II on top OF n barrel on Sth street. She
procured a piece of board somewhere and
scrawled sign which read. This is an
antisuffragist."
Puss had been there but a few moments
when the proprietor of a restaurant saw
him and took him for a mascot
Many of the suffragists heard of the
cats experience and declared today that
IL will be the same way with the cause:
Some one will always come to the rescue
when things look black"

Reddy Squirrel Talks to Billy

Squirrel Watch me and I'll show you
how II is DONE"
Billy watched while Reddy ran down
to an oak tree branch, hoped quickly
over to a hickory tree which grew next
to the oak and scrambled up to where
the nuts grew thick and green
He looked them all over and selected
one which seemed to Billy to be the very
greenest of the lot. This he carefully
put In his, cheek pouch so he could use
all his feet in running quickly back to
where Billy sat watching.
Now watch and you'll see how I fool
Jack Frost" said Reddy He tackled
the green hull with his sharp teeth and
quicker than Billy would have believed
possible he stripped off all the green hull,
gnawed away half the shell and began
eating the moist nut inside.
"Too bad you don't like nuts, too" he
said laughingly, as he saw Billy regard
ing him with wondering eyes They are
the best eating to be hadg" And away he
ran for another.
