Mrs Tabby quickly boxed her son
on the ear. "You fell asleep, did

and catch two mice before you get a
drop of milk"
Off trotted Mrs. Tabby with her
other children, while Tommy sat sad
~ watching the hole. Out ran three
mice and Tommy ran after them. He
caught one and then seeing the other
hiding behind a barrel he quickly
went after that, while a third was so
frightened he ran right into the trap.

"That is all traps are good for, "

But it was not long before all the
kittens were sprawled out in the sun
fast asleep, for they had cleared the
mice from the barn; but Tommy, il
he had any more dreams, did not tell
them to his mother.

now so popular in all English-speak-
ing countries.
The French adopted Georgia, but
quickly changed her to Georgine and
Georgette. Germany liked Georgine
and took hel over, making her one of
her most popular feminine names.
England has form Georgina and
Portugal is responsible for Georgetta.
In America alone does the original

Georgia's talismanic gem is the

TOMMY KITS DREAM.

WT RS. TABBY felt highly insulted
IVI one morning when she went in
to the. barn and found five traps
placed near holes where the mice
lived. "'The very idea," said Mrs
Tabby to her four kittens, "just as II
could not attend to this without
these traps around.
Children, I want you to pay strict
attention to what say, for you are
now old enough to help, and it may
be that / have given more time to
playing with you than to my work
Now you must help. want each
of you to watch near one Of these
traps and when mouse runs out OF
its home don't let him get into the
trap-CATCH HIM."
After telling her children this, Mrs
Tabby sat down to watch near the
fifth trap herself and soon all were
so busy watching for mouse that
they forgot each other.
Tommy Kit, however, grew tired OF
watching and after staring hard 8

long time at the hole he was to watch
he grew sleepy and, curling up on the
floor, soon was fast asleep.
Tommy Kit had the mouse on his
mind, though, and so he dreamed
about mice, and in his dream he
thought two fat mice rev out of the
hole he was set to watch. Up Jumped
Tommy Kit and pounced upon them,
catching a mouse in each paw.

Kit. "Pll run right off to mother and
show her what smart son she has.
'"CLICK!'' Tommy Kit opened his
eyes and there in the trap was
a mouse, and at the sound his broth
ers and mother turned and looked.
Tommy felt very much ashamed, for
there was not a mouse in the other
four traps.
"Why did you let him get past
you?" scolded his mother. "Your
brothers have each caught one. 1 am
ashamed that a child of mine should
be so stupid"
"But 1 did catch two" said Tom
my Kit, not quite sure he had dreamed
it. 81 had one in each paw when the

Borrowing the language of an old
English chronicle of the early Six

modern blouse as "Some of cloth,
silk, velvet, taffeta and such like.
\. Some short, reaching to the
girdlestead or waist, some to the
knees. Then they are guarded with
velvet guards, or else faced with cost
ly lace, either of gold or silver; some
embroidered with pearl" All this,

day.

that of keeping the skirt and suit coat
classically simple, reserving wealth of

nary handicraft for the under blouse.

The tent-man shook his head. It

ISSUE CLAIM AND DELIVERY
PAPERS FOR DEAD BODY

A highly unusual procedure, the
issuance of claim and delivery pa
pers for the possession of a dead
body, took place here this morning.
The papers were served against
colored undertaking firm, Bats and
Arts, by Wiley Lucas, colored, for
the possession of the remains of
Lucas IL year old daughter, Martha,
who died at local co1ored hopital
last night, and the incidents that
brought about the action were as
follows:
Upon the death of the child a nurse
in the hospital called the Bats and
Arts people who prepared the body
for burial. Later the family Of the
dead girl requested the colored under
taking firm of G. H. Darden
and Son to prepare the body for bur-
1al. This firm, finding the body had
been taken to the other establish
ment, went to that establishment and
demanded possessi1 of the body.
This was denied unless a certain sum
OF money was paid for transportation.
Then it was Lucas had claim and de-
livery papers issued.

Tourneur Drama Answers Vital

oOCAdl QucStIOHSs
'He who calls the tune must pay
the Piper" So the old proverb runs.
That it is one of the truest maxims
in life is set forth in vivid colors in
Maurice Tourneur's production of
''The Foolish Matrons" which comes
to the Wilson Theatre today.
Here is the answer to what every
woman wants to know, and what
every man thinks he knows-what
makes a successful wife? It is a
story that will get the most blase.
1t is different. 1t has three heroines
and it is hard to say which is the
most interesting. It is story of mar
riage, presented in that brilliant,
trenchant fashion that distinguishes
TOurneur's productions from the av-
erage run of screen play. Two of the
women fail to make success of mar
riage-it is the third woman, that
comes not empty handed, but bearing
spiritual gifts, who realizes to the full
what marriage may mean.
