PUsS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory.

Now let me see. In the last story we
left Puss and the lovely princess in a
boat on the big river that was rushing
down to the great blue ocean near which
stood the castle of the princess's father
And Puss and she had both fallen asleep
for 1t was night time, you remember.
Well. by and by the Man in the Moon
looked out of his little window and saw
them, so he told a shooting star to go
down to the earth and ask the fishes In
the river to keep the boat from hitting
rock or running on the shore.
So all night long big kind fish held
on to the stern of the boat and steered
it carefully along, and another big fish
swan in front and kept sharp lookout
for hidden rocks and shoals, and on
each side Of the boat six or maybe seven
fishes swan in n line so that nothing
could harm them.
And when the sun began to shake of
the purple mist on the eastern hills. Puss
opened his eyes and yawned and then,
all Of sudden. he saw the fishes. But
he didn't know that the Man in the
Moon had sent the star to tell them what
to do.
And just as he was going to ask them
question, the princess awoke ana
leaned over the side of the boat to battle
her hands. And of course she saw the
fishes, with their shining silver scales
and sweeping fins and gliding, waving
tails
How very kind of you" she said. ~
wish could reward you"
You can." replied the great fish who
was steering the boat. "Give me the
little gold ring you wear on your finger
would give 1t to my wife, who is fond
of jewelry'' So the lovely princess
slipped off the ring and handed it to the
fish, who took it carefully In his mouth
and hung it over one of his big ions
teeth
Il wish I had another ring" said tnr
princess, for the big fish at the bow OF
the boat looked very mournful,
Give me a lock OF your gold hair" he
said, after a little while. and his voice
didn't sound like the other fsh's at all.
No, 1t sounded just like a mans. Wash
that strange? So the little princess cut
of one of her golden curls and gave II
to the fish, and he put 1t inside Of
mother of pearl she'll and held It between
bis teeth so that 1t wouldn't get wet.
And just then, Puss, who was looking
over the bow OF the boat, called out: II
see stately castle near the rivers bend"
Down the river, ever so fast,
With never sail and never a mast.
The silver fishes have brought me home
Where the castle stands near the oceans
foam.
Oh, silver fish. you are good to me
To bring me back TO my home by the
sea"
And the next time you shall hear more

GOOD HOUSEKEEPING.
WASHING YOUR COLORED DRESSES
BY Laura A. Kirkman.

Every housekeeper knows how TO
laundcr her white dresses but the col
lored ones are more puzzling
To the beginner.
A pretty good rule for a woman TO
follow is that of not allowing her col
orcd clothes To become badly soied be-
fore washing them: for they cannot be
soaked as white ones can, and should
never be boiled.
In washing colored dress for the
first time, II is good plan TO first soak 1T
overnight in ''mordant that Is, IN
salt. vinegar or sugar of lead. Any of these
will make the colors fast. Greens are
perhaps best soaked in vinegar than in
the other two modants mentioned. In
the morning. dry the garment before
washing a. Care should be exercised in
using sugar Of lead, as this is poison.
Dresses OF different colors should never
be washed together. And after the gar
