PUSs IN BOOTS JR.
By David Cory.
CHAPTER CCCLXI.


Now. as I told you In the last story,
Puss Junior felt very sorry for the two
old parents of the beautiful girl, who
cared for nothing In the whole world but
TO deck herself out in fine clothes. SO
he said TO himself, I'm have talk to
her parents, and maybe l can show them
way to cure her of her foolishness."
So he knocked on the door OF the little
cottage. and there he found the two old
folks. sitting IN the dim twilight, weep
ing.
"what is the matter?" asked Puss,
although Of course he knew all the time
IL was their daughters selfishness that
made them so unhappy. And then they
told him that It was the behavior Of their
daughter that made them so miserable.
Cheer up" said little Pass Junior. IL
win find e way to help you" And then
he went out and climbed up hill and
knocked on the door OF little house
where lived a fine young fellow named
Jolly Tom And after Puss had told
him all about the pretty girl and the
trouble She caused her two kind parents,
he said:
IF you WIN marry the girl I VIII
show you how &c mako good wife
out OF her"
every we'll" said Jolly Tom" 81
need a wife. and as yNu seem to be
very wise cat, viii marry her ana
aud trust to you"
Come with me, then" said Puss. So
he and Jolly Tom started off down the
hill TO sec the old parents.
what Marry our daughter7" they
cried, when Jolly Tom asked for her
hand in marriage. "She is vain, and
idle, and bad tempered"
-Oh, wen manage all that" said little
PuSs Junior. And he winked at Jolly
Tom. who began to feel discouraged, you
know.
SO the next day Jolly Tom and the
pretty girl were married, for she was
very anxious to be the mistress Of
home, and they took Puss Junior along
with them to the little house on the hill.
And whenever Mrs. Jolly Tom got
angry or cross. Puss would double him
self up and turn somersaults on the
floor until she was obliged to laugh.
And II Mrs. Jolly Tom sat idle with
folded hands. when there was plenty to
do, Puss would say, "Oh, what a fine
wax fguro. Please cover It from the
dustr And then Jolly Tom would throw
a shawl over her, or dust her with
feather duster, and then he would laugh
his jolly, happy laugh until she was glad
to 60 to work.
And every time Mrs. Jolly Tom dressed
herself up in all her fnery and stood
before the looking glass, Puss Junior
went out and bought a peacock so that
in a short time the yard and the barns
were so filed with them that one could
scarcely stir for peacocks. But, every
day she behaved we'll all day. Puss gave
away a peacock, AID by and by she grew
so good that very few were left. SO puss
wished them both good by and went up
on his way. but before he left Mrs. Jolly
Tom gave him a big hug and promised
to make Jolly Tom happy for the rest
Of his life.-CopyriEht 1921.

CHARIOT RACE FURNISHES THRILLS
In queen of ShebG MOUie

The big surprise in "Queen Of Sheba"
at the Lyric theater, New York city, is
the chariot race. 1t is so exciting that
hundreds of people have asked how it
was made ]. Gordon Edwards, who di-
rected the filming of the story, for Will
liam Fox, answers the question as fol-
lows:
There is no secret about it. You
can't keep a motion picture set contain
ing 5000 people and covering $50 acres
a secret. We simply built the arena, put
on the races and photographed them from
ever angle we could think of. Two of
the chariots overturned, giving Jim Muir
ply, a driver, the narrowest escape of
his career. Tom Mix, the cowboy star,
did some thrilling riding for us by way
of what he called 'whooping it up and
Betty Blythe and Nell Craig, driving a
chariot apiece, proved that they were as
skilled and as daring horsewomen as
ever Id seen in my life That's about
all I can say"
1t might be added that 1t took weeks Of
work to arrange for the race and that
thousands of dollars were expended on It,

sented soon in indianapolis.

BRITAIN'S COAL
EMBARGO LIFTED
Foreign Supplies Are Flow.
ing In.

LONDON, June Foreign coal, much
Of 1t American, was again flowing into
Great Britain today as result of the
decision Of the railway men and the
transport workers to lift the embargo.
At a long conference of representatives
of these two branches Of the labor
triple alliance" last night it was de-
cided that the blockade against foreign
coal should be abandoned as once on
the ground 1t was bad tactics" The
embargo was imposed shortly after the
national coal strike began on April 1
to help the miners
Although the governments new pro-
posals have been rejected by the miners
there was feeling of optimism that the
coal strike will be settled within the next
week.

ROAD CONTRACS
HELD ILLEGA'
Contend SchofieId Road
Partly Within City.

Because part of the schoheld road
lies within the limits Of the city OF In
dbnapo1s and the board of works has
refused to approve its improvement, a
contract let by the county commissioners
Of Marion County for paving the road
is Illegal, according to a report OF the
State board of accounts.
The portion of the road which was
to be paved was three miles long and
the pavement was to cost $4,000 a mile.
The road enters the city in Brightwood
on Thirtieth, street and proceeds to Key
stone avenue, where it turns south. 1t
was stated that the board of works re-
fused to approve the road because it
meant the construction of sewers under
the pavement
While the contract for the road was
let Jan. 10, 1920, no action toward it's
construction has been taken because the
county has been unable to sell the bonds

not better off morally, mentally and

The tendencies and the inevitable re-

1t will tend to undermine the manly
selfreliance of the recipient. 1t will
prove but an entrance wedge for ever
