PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Cory.
CHAPTER CCCXLIII.

"Oh dear met" sighed little Puss
Junior one day as he trudged along in
his seven-league boots, Il wish I were
back in dear old Mother Goose Land -
why do you wish that" asked a
squeaky little voice, and Puss saw a
little man dressed in green with a red
pointed cap on his head. He wasn't
nearly as tall as Puss, for Puss, you
know, walked on his hind legs just like
man.
Because don't know where to CO."
answered Puss
Follow me-" said the little man, and
he pushed aside the bushes till he came
TO a path, and then he went straight
ahead, and by and by, after a while,
they came to little gate in a high stone
wall Here the little man paused and
taking a key out of his pocket, looked
at Puss before opening the gate.
Little Sir Cat, l see you are traveller
and in search Of adventure. Would you
care to see what is on the other side
If this wall Mind you. I must lock
the door as soon as you are inside"
Very we'll" answered Puss bravely,
Il will go in"
So the little man put the key in the
lock and opened the door. and as soon

closed the door and locked It, Well
Puss looked around the first thing, you
may be sure. but there was nothing very
strange, after all 1t was a beautiful
big garden where he found himself, and
not very far away stood a stately castle
And just then be heard a bird sing
ing:
The king OF this palace is looking, they
say,
For little throne boy who Is modest
but gay.
SO why don't you try, my little Sir
Cat,
To wait on the king when he wants this
and that"
That's certainly new adventure, "
thought little Puss Junior
And he didn't forget. let me tell you.
to turn the heels on his seven -leagu
boots backwards, for if he hadn't he
would have stepped right through tn,
palace and out Of the great front doors
with one stride.
Well. as Puss went through the castle.
all Of a sudden, just like that, he stubbed
his toe against a gold nail which stuck
up in the floor, and out jumped a man
from behind a velvet curtain. twenty
feet long! He had three feathers in his
cap, and as Puss didn't know his real
name he called him Mr. Three
Feathers
They tell me the king is looking for
throne boy Mr. Three Feathers" said
Puss with a bow. And next time Ill tell
you what happened after that.-Copy-

IT'S THE MEN WHO EXHIBIT BARE KNEES THIS WEEK
Booked Locus

The B. V. D. hero and the painless
comedian has arrived. In several of the
comedies on view at the movies this
week the male fun makers, as they are
billed, dash about in their B. V. DIS
and in their shirt-tails.
Probably such comedies come under the
head of summer movies. Two cOmedi-
ans in movie at the Ohio are painless
part Of the time, and before the movie
is over two other different styles in mems
hosiery and underwear are exhibited.
At the Circle is a comedy, not the
Washburn picture, one of the male actors
loses his trousers and is forced to wear
an apron.
Mack SennIett remains old fashioned
and displays the charms of fifty or more
Of his California reaches in his last
six-reel comedy. called "a Small Town
Idol"
Such an exhibit of male and female
knees just prepares one for what will
be seen at the ba hing beach this sum-

None of these comedies are question
able.
It is the movie back Of the entertain
ment which counts.

work or have it done. You should there

from fading, from shrinking. BE sure to

You should know how to use a little

WAsHBURN HAS AN IDEA
THE TnFA Is NOW ON VIEW.

THE IDEA Is now On VIEW
It takes n brave man to depart from
the beaten path OF entertainment
Mr.. Bryant Washhurn was recently IN
| London. England, and he was undOubted-
ly impressed by the magnificent scenes
In and about that old town.
| SO he decided to use she entire city OF
| London as a movie studio. The result Is
an unusual movie called, The Road to
/ London"
( think It was the wnnamsons. the
/ married couple who write so entertain
| lngly Of travel, who first combined ma
| traI scenery and romance. This was
( done in a novel called THE Lightning
! Conductor" and the authors put 4 pretty
/ romance in natural scenery.
/ That appears to be the great idea OF
/ Mr. Washburn as he has logically photo
/ graphed some Of the beauty spots OF
! London and the result is as refreshingly
new as the idea. There really isn't much
] Of story to this little travelog affair.
( Ii concerns Mr. Washburn as the hero.
/ preparing to 20 to Paris with his dad
/ when he sees a fTown on the pretty face
| Of q girl In an automobile. The girls
! naughty aunt plans to marry her off 10
! brainless looking walking fashion plate.
/ She appeals to our hero and he rescues
| her. Then for several reels, the aunt
and the fashion plate chases our hero
and the girl all over London. That is
| where We see some Of the prettlest sights
| London has to offer.
II you care for the better and even
] caieter things on the screen, | am sure
you will enjoy this little adventure in
| natural scenery.
Also Mr. Washburn is at the Circle
where he is appearing in person in ad-
! ditiOn to having his shadow flashed on
/ the screen

GROWING HAY FOR MARKET.

Q. l wish to grow hay for the market.
How large tract of land must l use,
and what machinery will be necessary I
+. n.
A. The Bureau of Plant Industry says
that the maintenance charge for hay
making equipment is so high that 1t is
doubtful whether a farmer is justified in
going into the business unless he has
twenty acres Of hay to cut each year
The special equipment necessary for the
successful production of market hay con
sists of a mower, rake, tedder, wagon
with frame, horse fork, pitchforks, and
a hay press. Unless there will be fifty
tons Of hay to be baled, it is more
economical to hire the hay baled then to
buy a press.

HISTORY OF CURFEw.

Q. What is the origin Of curfew law?
b d. L.
A In the middle ages a bell was hung
as a signal for fires to be covered up
for the night and consequently for the
people to go to bed The word curfew
is derived from the French words cow
rir. to cover and fau, fire. In the United
States a curfew has been sounded TO
warn young people to be within doors,
unless accompanied by adults. 1t is said
that over 5000 towns and cities in this

HERE IS BURLESQUE
AND TURPIN is IN 1T.

The word burlesque no longer fright
ems the seasoned theater goer.
In the modern revue. burlesque takes
the form Of parody, travesty and often
as extrava ganza.
1t isn't surprising to see Mack Sen
nett take the lead in movies of extrava-
ganza or in plain words-movie bur
/ lesque.
Burlesque can be clean and in the
hands of Mr.. Sennett, "A Small Town
IDOL" is proof that burlesque can be
/ clean and entertaining.
/ The chief fun-makers in this Green
burlesque include Ben Turpin. the gen
tleman with the Crossed eyes, and bush
mustache; Charlie Murray, Marie Pre-
vost and Phyllis Haver, who knows how
and why she wears a bathing suit.
Yesterday at the Colonial, "A Small

! 1t is extravagant fun, bare knees, some
dancing and some more fun. Ben Tur-
| pin hasn't the gentle humorous touch OF
| Charlie Chaplin. Turpin takes many a
/ tumble in this comedy and every fall is
! scream. His fishing stunt, in which
some clever photography is used showing
the fish steal the bait is an example Of
real burlesque fun. In this movie Mr..
Sennett has developed this sort of CON-
edy to the highest degree yet seen on
the stage.
l might state that most of the girls
are dressed for summer weather and that
the cold winds Of the North would cause
