PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Corr.

One day as Pass was travelling along
he saw a wonderful horse with great
wings on either side of his back. So
Puss stopped and called out, whoa
there, you big Bird Horse! And then
Pegasus, for that was his name. came
over to Puss and said, what do you
wish, little travelerf"
81 have never ridden on winged
steed. Won't you take me on your
back?"
Not unless you have a golden bride"
said the beautiful winged horse, and he
tapped his great wings and paved the
earth with his golden hoOfs.
Dear me-" thought Puss. and he
looked around to find the bride of gold,
but, OF course, Il was nowhere in sight.
And then all Of a sudden a lovely lady
walked up and handed Puss the golden
bride.
Here It is, little cat" she said. Put
it on your horse and ride away" so
Puss did as he was told. and then mount
ing the wonderful animal, few away on
his back through the blue heavens, and
by and by they came to the top OF a
high mountain, where Pegasus had his
stable.
"Sit down, little cat, and I'll tell you
story about myself" So Puss sat
down, and after the winged horse had
given him a saucer OF milk aud had
eaten a quart OF oats, he folded his great
golden wings close TO his side and be-
gan his story.
"Once upon a time a young man tried
to ride up TO the country OF the Gods on
my back, but the king OF that starry
land sent a great horsehy TO sting me-
and l then refused TO fly further. So
remember. little Puss Junior. never try
to urge me to carry you into that far
country"
And then Pegasus went over to a
great rock and kicked II with his golden
heels, and, all OF a sudden, a stream Of
water gushed forth and he quenched his
thirst. and after that he came back and
stood by Puss Junior who was so sur-
prised at what he had heard and seen
that he could say nothing.

WHEN A GIRL MAR RES
A New Serial of Young Mar ried Life
BY Ann Lisls

1t wasn't there.
Anonymous, that basket Of fragrance
had been allowed to deck Virginia's liv-
ing room. Revealed as the gift of Pat
Dalton 1t had been removed.
But where was it? Had Virginia
transported it tenderly to her own room
or had she flung 1t out Of her home in
high recruitment Of her husbands dar-
ing? My own unspoken words startled
me. Never before had | thought of Pat
Dalton as Virginia's husband I'd just
accepted them vaguely as Pat and Vir-
ginia-two persons who ought to be to-
gether and were apart.
The rustic Of draperies in the hall
made me drag my eyes away from their
search Of the room where Pats gift had
been denied a place.
Forgive me for keeping you waiting,
came Virginia's smooth tones from the
hallway-and she followed close urOn

CHAPTER CT.

Swept by an instinct deeper than mere
impulse, l hurried from that strange
luncheon party at the Clinsarge, flung
myself extravagantly into a taxi and
gave the driver VirgInIa's address.
There had been pleading in Carlotta
Sturgess eyes, and stark amusement in
Tom Mason's gaze. None Of that mat
tered. I had to go to Virginia with the
message that l felt Pat Dalton trying to
convey to her through me each time we
met and he fumbled sadly for words.
The feeling that 1 was a messenger
conveyed me past the doorman at the
entrance to Virginia's apartment build
ing, up in the elevator and so to her
very door. felt Pat and Virginia com
ing close again. Their happiness seemed
real-accomrlished.
Then the maid admitted me to Vir-
ginlas apartment.
And the very first thing 1 did-did
instinctively, without forethought or
planning-was to stare over at the CON
sole table where the silver basket Of
crimson Jacqueminots with the tiny pale
pink sweetheart roses" had stood the
night before.

And after a little while, the great
winged horse said, Come, little pussy,
c!iino on my back and we will go for a
rae through the air." So of they went,
rs tast as comet and by and by they
saw man shearing a ram, whome fleece
was OF gold. So the winged horse flew
down and Puss got of his back and went
up 10 the man.
And just then he finished and took
the beautiful golden fleece and walked
away. And when he came to grove or

Boy Killed by Truck
As Baby Brother Is Born

Official red tape was ignored in
New York when the body of Israel
Sigmund, six years old, was permit
ted to be laid out in the garage of
the Brownsville police station. The
boy who lived with his parents, in
Brooklyn, was on his way to school
when he ran in front of an automo-
bile truck.
Frank Sigmund, the father, had
just received word that a baby boy
had been born at his home when he
learned of IsraePs death. The moth
er was told that Israel had gone to
visit an uncle for a week or two,
and through the courtesy of Captain
Isaac Frank and Inspector Samuel
A. MeIGlroy, the body was removed
to the station house garage. Six lit
tie candles were lighted that night
while the body lay on u stretcher
and the father and members of the
police force were the chief mourners.
The lad was buried in the Mount
Zion cemetery.

0uija Boards Blamed
For Ills of Students

"Ouija boards are becoming more
plentiful in the fraternity and So
ciety homes and in the rooms of in
dependent students than Bibles or
prayer books and more frequently
consulted" declared member of the
faculty of the University of Michi-
gan recently commenting on a re-
pert he had just received that two
young women in his classes had been
obliged to leave school and place
themselves in the hands of nerve
specialists because Of their devotion
to the ouija board.
Another member of the university
faculty recently issued this warning
in the classroom: IF the students
will devote the time to study that
they now give to the ouija board
there will be fewer students placed
on the home or on the warned lists
ut the end of the semester, after the
examinations are over. To my mind
the lure Of the ouija is. becoming a
serious menace in this country"
DR.. Warren Forsythe. head Of the
university health service. admitted
that there had been a great influx Of
nervous students appearing lately
for treatment.
One city nerve specialist said he
had treated University women for eX-
trcme nervousness and that their
difficulty seemed TO have been caused
by too close association with the
cuija board and too great belief in
it's wanderings.
