PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory

One day as little Puss Junior was
travelling through strange country be
heard a voice from a tree top singing;
Oh, I'm the King Of the Merry Winds
That push the ships over the sea.
That turn the sails of the big windmills
That stand SO tall On the lea.
I fly the kites OF the little boys
And whirl around their pinwheel toys,
And turn the weathercocks to and fro,
And stormy nights down the chimney
blow.
Come down and talk to me-" called
out Puss, for he wanted to see what
kind of a king this windy monarch was,
you see.
wait a minute" said the voice, and
pretty soon down came a little fairy
like person with gauzy wings. And In
his hand he carried a great long silver
horn.
And as soon as he was safely on the
ground he put the silver instrument TO
his lips and blew upon it and all the
leaves in the forest began to whisper
and the tall meadowgrass bent and
swayed and a gold painted weathercock
on a barn nearby turned around on his
toe, like a dancer.
And as soon as he finished blowing he
turned to puss and said What favor
can l do for you, little Pussy Cat2 l
see you are traveller" and he looked at
his red top boots and smiled.
Haven't you a little silver horn to
give me?" said Puss. Il would like one
to blow away evil spirits and bats. For

Couples in 21- Year Career
Many Joined Under

BRAZIL, Ind, Jan. 4.-"Fourteen
thousand hearts to beat as seven thou
sand" is the unique New Year resolution
made by George L. Law, justice of the
peace at Brazil, who is widely known as
the marrying squire" and who has set
a record for performing marriage cere-
monies equaled possibly by no other
man in the country.
When Justice Law closed his ledger
for 1920 total figures disclosed that dur
ing his twenty one years as justice of
the peace he has officiated at 6,675 we'd
dings, which he claims stands as a rec
ord throughout Indiana, and probably
the highest figure attained by any mag
istrate in the United States. Since last
Saturday be has performed more than
dozen ceremonies and indications are
that he will have performed the 323 cere-
monies necessary to complete the total
Of 1000 long before another new year.
Justice Law was elected to the office
which he now holds in November, 1898
and performed his first marriage cere-
mony Jan. a. 1899. He then decided to
engage in tho marrying business on a
large scale and accordingly furnished
a matrimonial parlor adjoining his office
and suspended from the ceiling a floral
horseshoe and bell. under which the
bride and groom stand while the cere-
mony is being performed.
READY TO OFFICIATE
ANY TIME DURING DAY.
At all hours of the dag and night he
is ready to offciate At ceremonies and
he has been called upon 70 administer
marriage vows in every conceivable man

ton Of in an airplane. He married
couple during a carnival In Brazil in
the presence of $4,000 people and on an
other occasion the ceremony was per-
formed before an assembly of 10000 per
sons both ceremonies being performed
on a platform. An assembly Of $4,000
persons was present at a public double
wedding which he performed several
years ago.
One ceremony was performed In a mine,
600 feet below the surface of the earth.
Others have been performed in wagons
automobiles and on dry goods boxes, On
steps Of public buildings and even in an
alley. when, on one occasion, the con
tracing parties declared they would net
