PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
- BY David Cory

soon there came a great traw".ng o.
feet and then, all of a sudden ne door
opened, and in came the band Of thieves.
HAS any one been here" asked one
Of them, tapping on the little yellow
birds cage with his finger But the
little bird kept her head under her wing
and never said a word. And then the
big robber came over to the fireplace
and called to the little cricket. Come
ont Of your hole, little black cricket, and
tell me If any one has been here But
the little cricket stayed where he was,
for he didn't want to tell a lie, Won see.
We'll, now We'll count our money"
said the big robber, and they all sat
around the table and spread the money
which they had stolen during the night
from travellers. And after that they ali
went to bed, except the big robber. who
was very wideawaEe. And pretty soon
he began to look in all the corners and
under the chairs, and then he came over
to the place where Puss was hiding be
hind the great stool. And then all Of a
Sudden. he spied little Puss Junior.
"Ha, ha, no hol ! thought there was
somebody here" said the wicked rob-
Der, and he reached out his great hand.
But Puss slipped between his legs and
ran out Of the door and Of course the
robber turned around and followed. And
oh. dear me. Just as puss reached the
last steP, his boot heel caught and down
he fell, and then the robber with a yell.

In the last story I told you now little
Puss Junior, with his magic horn, blew
the leaves off the trees and frightened
the robbers who tried to steal his purse.
Wen, after that Puss put the horn back
In his pocket and continued his journey
of adventure, and by and by. after a
while, he came to a lonely spot in the
woods, where stood a great castle,
gloomy and dark
So PuSs went up and knocked on the
door, but no one answered and at last
Puss turned the lock, for great key
hung by a chain outside, and entered,
But all was still and dark inside.
Well, after a while, Puss Juniors
eyes made out a bird cage hanging from
the ceiling. And when he touched it n
little sleepy yellow bird began to sing.
but very soft and low, as If she feared
to make a noise;
''Turn back, turn back, brave little cat,
Within this castle do not stay.
For soon a band Of wicked thieves
VIII come at break of day.
And then the little yellow bird put
her head under her wing and went TO
sleep. But Puss wasn't afraid, so he
hid behind a great stool and waited.
And by and by little cricket said, very
softly:
GO way. go way, while yet there's
time.
For thieves live here who deal in crime,
And If they find you in this house
They'll XIII you like little mouse"
And, goodness me, wouldn't you have
thought Puss would have jumped out Of
the window and run away. But he
didn't. He just sat there and grinned
at the friendly little cricket, and pretty

Many Ways.
u~HE sandwich really has tw,

-HE sandwich really has two
/ omces.
One is provide an easily
eaten bit Of nourishment when more
elaborate or lengthy service would
be inconvenient. That is the infor-
NAL sandwich.
The other is TO provide a dainty
and tempting morsel when anything
more substantial would be too much.
The swiss cheese and mustard
sandwich is an instance of the first
type The pate-de-fois gras sand
wich is an instance of the second.
So whether you want a substantial
meal that you can eat on the run, or
whether you want a dainty bite that
you can take without interference to
your appetite an hour or so before
dinner you have the sandwich to
fall back on.
That the sandwich has proved il
self as a very important part OF mod
ern life is shown by the fact that
there is an almost infinite variety OF
sandwiches now. There was time
when lettuce sandwiches and jelly
sand wiches and caviar sandwiches
were the usual sorts served at tea
time. Now we have dozens OF "usua
SORTS" In fact, the idea seems to b'
to get something unusual, IL this un
usualness is only attained through
the use OF some different seasoning
or spice.

Another filling Is made OF raisins
and nuts. mixed TO paste with

delicious made into tiny sandwiches
for the tea table. although in big
sandwich 1t is hearty enough to be
satisfying for luncheon.
OF course. everybody knows that
the dainty making of sandwiches has
more 10 do with their temptingness
than anything else. Good bread OF
the right texture, the best butter, a
sharp knife and a neat habit OF plling

make for really tempting sandwiches.

put in silver bread baskets, with the
handle of one tied with violet ribbon
and that of the other with pink. II
goes without saying that these sand
