SAVED FEATHERED FRIEND
Cats Remarkable Devotion to Canary
Makes Story Quite Out
of the Ordinary.

The cat saved the life of the canary.
That, writes a correspondent, is the
gist of an extraordinary story that a
friend told me. My friend is fond Of
pets. Several years ago a neighbor
OF hers complained that her cat, which
had just given birth to three kittens,
refused to have anything to do with
one of them. My friend told her neigh
Dor that she would take the kitten and
bring it up by hand. She fed the little
thing from spoon, and while it was
small kept it on the bed for fear some
one would step on it.
At that time she also had canary,
which she let out of it's cage for a
while each day. The bird would often
fly to the bed and, perching on the kit
tens back, sit there to preen it's feath-
ers, and would even tuck it's head I'M
der it's wing for short nap in the
kittens warm fur. The kitten never
showed the least inclination to harm
it. Even after the kitten grew older
the bird continued to sit on its back,
and leased it sometimes by reaching
over and pecking at it's nose and eyes.
One day, when the kitten had be-
come full-grown cat, the bird escaped
through door that had been acciden-
tally left open. After three days had
passed without anyone's seeing it my
friend gave it up as dead. The cat
was fOrlorn without it's playmate; fire.
quently it looked up at the empty cage
and mewed or wandered round out.
doors, mewing dolefully.
On the third day the lady heard the
cat at the screen door; she called to
it once or twice, and it answered; but
she noticed that it's voice sounded
muffled and strange. She went to the
door, and there stood puss with the
lost canary in it's mouth. The bird was
unframed, but nearly dead from hun
ger and exposure. First aid in the
shape of warm milk and pepper, how
ever, soon restored it to it's normal
health. The lady never knew whether
the bird had been attracted by the
cats calls, or whether the cat had
found it on the ground near the house.
At any rate, the cat saved the birds
life.-Youth's Companion.

Jusserand Lively Humorist.

Ambassador Jean Jusserand, for the
last 20 years the representative of
France in the United States, has a
rare sense of humor that is a constant
delight to Washington.
What is probably his prize quip was
made some years ago when the pub
lie was engaged in laughing ridic-
ulous statue out of the capitol
grounds. This statue was Of George
Washington. 1t represented the Fa-

blasts of Capitol hill, one finger

StrateQy!

Mary Glare is about half past three
years old and she, like most little folk,
likes to visit among the neighbors. But
like all women, Mary Clare feels that
she must have legitimate reason for
making calls.
Mrs. Blank who lives next door and
is fond of Mary Glare, heard a knock
on her back door. She opened it and
there stood the little visitor, with an
cid rag she had picked up in the yard,
in her hand.
"Oh, Mrs. Blank, don't you want
this?" she exclaimed ingenuously.
And, of course, she was invited in for
a visit.

President, and he was pleasantly non

them the delights of anticipating
his message tomorrow.
On Wednesday the President was al
most inundated by delegations OF

Ing the day. In the morning he
was honored by a call from the
Woman's Peace Party and in the
afternoon the executive committee of
the National Woman's Party, fifty
strong, besieged the executive Of
fices. The whole affair was a little
stin and formal at first when they
filed one at a time into the Presi-
dents office. Each was given a
friendly handshake by President
Harding. As soon as they had all
entered and arranged themselves
about the back walls OF the office,
the speechmakers were introduced by
Elsie Hill, the chairman.

to rise up and haunt them. and Mrs.
Izetta Jewel Brown referred to it by
telling the President the story OF
the humble bee.
She assured him that he need not
be afraid to touch the measures they
proposed because of the sporiAors' mil.

picked what he thought was a large
luscious blackberry and found to his
sorrow that II was a large, fierce
