MEOW! THE CAT CAME BACK
Walks SO Miles to Return to Its Home
in Perth Amboy, NJ. j.,
Says Owner.

Perth Amboy, n. J.-Here is tale
of a cat that walked 90 miles to return

On the night of July 3, Yarnel said
he took the cat in satchel to Phoenix

When he got to his summer home
there he found there was no food for
the cat. The latter disappeared, to
show up six days later at Yarners

this, but 1t Is true" declares Yarnel

much of a swagger to his walk. He
