CHAPTER LyI1I

Puss awoke at sunrise, for why not?
There was somebody knocking at his
door, He jumped out of bed and looked
about him. For a moment he had for
gotten he was IN the castle belonging to
the little white eat. And then he remem-
bered his promise of the night before,
and resolved that he would find the
young prince and tell him where there
was the most beautiful dog in the whole
world.
And as the prince had been in search
of a dog for some time, as well as his
two brothers, and the fate of all three
depended on him who brought the hand
soonest dog to their father, the king, Puss
felt sure the youngest son would gladly
come to the castle of the little white cat
to see her dog. "Then If the prince falls
in love with her all will be well,' said

OrbisOn Asks for
Record of Booze Cases

Charles J. Orbison, federal prohibition
director for Indiana, issued a circular
letter today in which he asks all the
prosecuting attorneys of the state to
send monthly lists of the convictions of
violators Of the liquor law and the PEN
alties assessed
This, Mr.. Orbison explained, is asked
in order that the government may keep
complete list of taxes to be collected
as specified by federal Act. l.
THE traffic in intoxicating liquors.
said Mr.. orbison, has been greatly rez
stricted, but not eliminated, and .iaswrs
highly necessary that all officials inter.
ested in the enforcement of the law keep
constantly on the job 50 that the enemies
Of the law, now in panic, may be put to
rout."

asked Neal, after Sheldon Blake had
whisked Envy away from her lunch with
u.s.
The question made me vince almost as
sadly as had Meals complete taking Il
for granted that Jim owned q car.
He always has to go out-for bust

matter how Neal interpreted It.
Lets go out for walk" suggested
Neal, eagerly-he never had been given
70 sitting around the house"
So we roamed out into the summer
sunshine and gossiped about home-folks
and speculated how many weeks after
his hrst appearance at work Monday
must el2pse before Neal got promoted to
S35 a week!
when you write to father don't say
much about me- He would kind Of rather
get his first story OF my impressions OF
New York from yours truly" said Neal,
as we were stroIling home at 6.
This sounded reasonable enough. for
after all Father Andrews IS no blood kin
Of mine, and Neal IS his own boy.

response to my unspoken question.
And the worst Of It is, didn't see
my man, and I'll have to go up the river
again tomorrow and waste my Sunday

Supper wasn't a pleasant meal. I had
to utilize the cold things left from lunch,
as Jim hates wnrmed-over food. And
cold food doesn't refresh a tired man
But Jim was good-natured about It. He
seemed however, to be waiting for some
thing to pounee on, and he found It
when Neal announced-with a little ir-
ritability Of his own-that IL we didn't
hurry he'd have TO run along without
helping with the dishes.
That's all right, old man, we don't
generally ask our guests to wash our

The Right Thing
at the Right Time
Breakfast Manners
BY MARY MARSHALL s. DUFFEE.

II most well-ordeeed households there
Is no stated breakfast hour, breakfast
being served at the convenience OF the
members and the guests of the house
hold.
II you are guest at a house and have
to leave betimes IN the morning It Is not
necessary FOR you TO wait until the entire
family have assembled. Usually the
hostess asks guests what time they wish
to have breakfast 1t Is courteous whore
possible to urge the guest who has moth
ing special 20 demand an early rising
to take a late breakfast.
But though breakfast is rather q move
able feast it IS not courteous to be in
different to others who are breakgastlng
with you. Even In the bosom Of your
own family il is not exactly courteous
to read the morning paper during break
fast time.
II you breakfast alone or with some
one else who, also, likes to favor break
East coffee with snatches Of the days
news, we'll and good.
II your table compa Mon does not like
ito read the paper 1t is certainly not con-
siderate to 90 so yourself. Husbands
usually feel free TO ia so when break
fasting with their wives.
IL Is so usual haunt that It is I'M
possible to say that 1t is indicative Of
bad breeding. At least 1t may be said
that not to do this is to show greater re-
spect and consideration.
At dinner a guest feels under some
thing like conjunction to partake OF
least sparingly of the various courses
that are served, but at breakfast there
Is no reason why you should eat any
more than that to which you are ac-
customed.
Likewise it is inconsderate and unkind
to urge guests to take more for break k
fast than they wish to.-Copyright, 1920.

CLEAN UP WEEK
FOR AMERICUS.

The civic committee of the Wo-
mans club asks that every club
member in Americas to cooperate
with them in establishing next week
as cleanup week. Americus is Sc
clean as it is that there is not a
great deal to be done, but there, are
few necessary details to be attend
ed to in order that it may present a
clean house to the public. 1t is
asked that each individual house
keeper see that her own premises be
gone over so that no debris may be
left. There are a few vacant lots
scattered about town that can be
made to look "brand new" if little
attention is paid to them just at the
present. Some state visitors will
call on Americas on April 1914, and
the city wants to glow with pride
and cleanliness on that occasion.
For these people will visit other cit
les of the state on their itinerary
and will be sure to tell just how
Americas appeared to them. So, let
all get together on this great and
necessary movement, and the old
adage will be exemplifed anew in
that many hands make light work.

In middle life and old age the
cells Of the body are not recon

Of vitqlizing oxygen and the organs

The body in youth possesses more

That's because there is an abun-

he body is young-and the blood IS
rich ia oxygen which burns up and
eliminates the waste tissues and
worn out cells. In youth the ~-ljck

PLEASE PHONE IN
The PERSONALS.

Not long since this column carried
an appeal to the people of Ameri-
Gus to telephone in their personals
and parties, describing how very
hard it is for the writer of this page
to find out everything going on of
interest in the city. The responses
TO this appeal have gladdened the
heart of the society writer, for
calls came from all parts of the city
with news for the column, and the
page was so good for days after the
appeal was made that it gave the
writer the "swell head" But, alas,
pride goeth before fall, " for,
verify, lately the column has been
almost destitute of personals, and
this really makes a paper. 1t is
easy enough, not so very easy,
either, to chase a party or so for
the paper, but it is hopeless to try
to locate visitors if there is no inkl-
ing given of the coming or going of
the guest. This is a family pa
per, everybody in Americus is in
terested in it, and let's get together
today and resolve to make it better
than ever before.
When your guests are expected to
arrive, tell us, so that your friends
may know it in time to arrange for
cordial welcome call; when your
guest leaves, tell US that, so that we
may make a note of that fact also.
Let's try this plan for week and
see what happy effect it will have
on the news column. In the mean
time, be assured of the appreciation
that is felt for the hearty response
made to the other appeal.

nent "a Betrocampa Gutta Vita, which last
year did considerable damage in this sec

culturist Frank q. Dudley has said:
"We are In hopes to control this pest
by the use of a poison bait, which will
be placed IL a circle around the trees or
strewn in long line In advance of the
caterpillars, so that when they arrive at
it, they will eat and perish. 1t is new
ex experiment., but We hope that 1t will
meet with success. We know that 1t is
an effective treatment for the cut worm
and cannot see why 1t will not do the
same with these caterpillars. It is
thought to be the only practical way to
fight them, as it would be impossible to
spray In the forests.
"The saddled prominent is destructive
pest; eating as It does day and night on
the foliage, and soon causing the tree to
wither and die. It runs a course OF
about three years. Last year was bad
this one We fear will be worse; and next
year the worst OF all; so we hope to f1nd
a means of controlling 1t. We already
have some parasites that are helping In
controlling 1t, the podisus modestus and
the cslisoma beetles. The pest is at its
worst in July, so We are going after them
early.
"The poison bait we shall use Is made
| of 2 IL pounds of arsenate of lead, &c
pounds of bran, six lemons cut fine, one
gallon of molasses and five gallons ol
water"
