CAT SCORED USUAL VICTORY
Japanese Legend Merely Another
Feather In the Cap Of the Ever.
Conquering Feline.

There is an enchanting story told by
Japan Of nine centuries past, Of the
emperor's favorite cat herself
spoiled beauty. She had received a
cap Of honor and had been raised to
the third rank of nobility, with the
title of WiyObu-nO- Ototo, or "Chief Of
the Female Attendants" and was a
cat of many graeeS. Unfortunately,
on day of disobedience, her lady-in-
waiting summoned the emperor's dog,
Okinamaru, to startle her into good be-
havior. He barked Obediently, and
the cat dashed madly behind the
screen, where his majesty sat at break
fast, and sought refuge In his arms.
The emperor, much shocked, sent for
the lord high chamberlain, and pro-
nounced sentence on poor Okinamaru.
A thrashing and exile! The Lady Sci
describes him as hitherto happy deg
and much esteemed. But q short time
before he had been carried In process
sion In a willow litter, with peach
blossoms and hollyhocks on his head !!
He was now an outcast on dog island,
"and none so poor to do him rever-
ence." He may possibly have found
life easier without the hollyhocks, but
II is interesting to see that the eternal
cat is victorious as ever. The dog is
vanquished; the lady-ln-waiting ruined,
and the cat lies in the emperor's lap
and purrs. So was 1t always; so will
1t ever be, writes L. Adams Beck In
Asia Magazine.

that collect and harden along the side
of the nail should be clipped off. The
nails should be kept filed to a small
rounded point. Vaseline rubbed into
them every night will prevent ridges
forming, unless there Is a quantity Of
lime In the blood.
For the regular manicure, the nails
should be filed to shape and rubbed
with cold cream, after the fingers have
been held in soapy warm water. Then
the loose skin is scraped off with
edge of the file, the cuticle cut or
pushed back, and all the hard skin cut
away from the sides, till the nail ap-
pears a perfect oval, set In the finger.
Then the bleach is put under the nail,
If any is needed, the polish is put on,
and the nail is polished with buffer
rubbed with chalk. Then all rouge and
powder is washed off gently, and the
nail, pink and perfect, receives its
final polish by rubbing 1t against the
palm Of the hand.
