Taylor Churchill is one of the
proudest men in Inlay City. On
Sunday he went to the ball game
in Detroit, and had the pleasure
of being introduced to Ty Cobb,
Babe Ruth and othher stars of the
diamond The big-hearted Tyrus
invited him to the "dugout" and
gave him a new ball bearing his
autograph, and Taylor certainly
is the envy of all the other boys
in town, large or small.

thought more about catching birds
than he did about losing his friends.
SO he went to the woods and hid un-
der some bushes and waited.
When the birds flew down to the
ground Puss came out, thinking he
must look so much like bird himself
they would not be scared, but when
they saw him they flew away chatter
ing loudly to the trees out of his
reach.
why don't you stay and play with
me?' he asked in soft tone. Don't
you see | am a bird like you? have
feathers"
Yes, we see your feathers" an
swered the birds, but we also see
your feet and you have four. We do
not play with four-footed animals"
Puss had not thought about his
feet. He thought all he needed was
feathers. He was pretty hungry now.
so he ran back home thinking he could
get Tabby Grey to share her milk with
him, but when she saw him she hump
! ed her back and looked very fierce.
FUSS tried to tell her who he was.
! but it was no use. She would not lis
! ten and there was nothing to do but
} go back to the woods.
Just as he was running along the
I path a hunter, seeing the queer ami
NAL, raised his gun and fired, but
Puss was lucky and ran behind rock
! unframed.
There he stayed thinking over his
! sad plight. He was covered with
feathers and still he was not a bird,
| aud even his own kind would not have
| him around.
IF l ever get rid of this coat 1 will
be satisfied with what Nature gave
me-" thought Puss. land l will hunt
mice and drink my saucer of milk and
! be thankful"
1t was a long time before PGss was
rid of his feather coat and he looked
anything but handsome for a long
| time. but when he did at last get back
his soft white coat he was a wiser
| puss, you may be sure.

Those who conserve their strength
will stay young looking longer than
those who overuse their energies.
Wrinkles and sallOwness and hollow

hold some energy in reserve. And this
extra rest in the morning will do
worlds of good.

TIM notched, buttonholed lapel of

from the days when gentlemen trav-

Frequently it was necessary to travel
in cold or rainy weather, and the coat
was made so that it could be buttoned

hand lapel carried a button, which
has disappeared, though the buttonhole
remains.
