PUSS IN BOOTS, JR.
BY DAVID CORY.


As soon as Puss Junior and Tom
Thumb had knocked upon the front door
of the pretty little cottage it was opened
by a little yellow hen, who bowed and
invited them in. BY the light OF the big
open fire Puss Junior could see little
old man sitting at the farther end Of the
room. He was eating his supper, but on
hearing the door open asked In thick,
cracked voice, who is IT."
"Puss in Boots Junior and Tom Thumb
Esq" replied our two small travellers.
And then the little hen led them over TO
the table and said;
Grandfather. you see before you two
famous characters"
"Sit down. my friends. and sup with
me-" said the little old man, and as this
was Just what Puss and Tom most de-
sired at that moment they did as they
were bid and presently they were enjoy
ing a most delicious meal. Pretty soon
the little old man said
Il have a little hen, the prettiest ever
seen;
She washes me the dishes and keeps the
house clean;
She goes 10 the mill to fetch me some
-four.
She brings 1t home IN less than an hour ::
She bakes me my bread, she brews me
my ale,
She sits by the fire and tells many q
fine tale
What kind Of stories does she tell 2"
asked Tom Thumb, crossing bis small
legs and gazing into the fire, for he felt
very comfortable just then, with a fine
supper under his waistcoat
Of uto ha
little old man. drawing his chair up to
the FIRE and sitting down between Puss
Junior and Tom Thumb, ais about the
giant and the beanstalk. She's the little
hen that laid the golden eggs for the
giant. you know"
And when he heard this Puss Junior
Jumped TO his feet and ran over to the
little hen who was busy clearing the
supper table Don't you remember 2"
he said.
And the little hen replied, "Of course
do. l have never forgotten what you
did for me at the giants house"
"And l shan't forget how you met me
at the top Of the beanstalk and showed
me the way to his castle" replied Puss.
Come. come" cried the little old man,
leave the supper dishes, you two. Come
Junior tell the story Of Jack and the
Beanstalk."
So they all sat down and waited for
Puss to commence And next time you
shall hear what Puss told them.-Copy-

CHAPTER IX-Continued

In daze that was rapidly being swept
aside by her anger, Ethel made her way
to the cottage.
It was unoccupied, but a look through
the windows showed that the place was
well furnished. Then something Of the

Kill or Cure
By Ralph Cummins

Of the morning. AS she crossed to the
| cabin. she wondered a little at the alb
sence of the fierde Joy that she should
feel at the hope Of escape.
Then she threw open the kitchen door
1t was just as she had left it. The
dirty dishes still cluttered the table.
Smell had not returned.
| Mechanically she kindled q fire in the
Sheet-iron stove, and put on water to
heat. Then she set about the house
work that she had left undone in her
angry fight of the morning.
Night came almost at once. The wind
still roared up the valley in tornado
gusts that brought to the girl the distant
crash of falling trees.
Ethel, now quite proficient as a cook
prepared a supper Of fried venison and
biscuits. She tried to make herself be-
lieve that she did not care if Smell never
returned. But with the very next flash
Of thought she was assuring herself that
upon two previous occasions Smell had
not returned from his tramps until after
dark.
She waited for while after supper
was ready, then she ate with ahunger
induced by a strenuous day. Later she
carefully placed SHELLS supper on the
stove where 1t would keep warm. washed
the dishes and swept the kitchen.
For q long time she sat IN the kitchen,
growing more nervous as the hours
passed and the bowling storm showed no
signs of abating. At last more for
something to do than with the thought
of attempting sleep, she went into her
room, built a fire and turned to her bed
with the idea Of arranging her bedding
But at the bedside she stopped dead,
frozen with a discovery that drove away
all else
Her two white blankets were gonei
She stared at the bed for a moment,
then turned to a hurried search of the
room. But she knew that she had not
removed the blankets.
With new, strangely unreal sensations,
Ethel walked slowly to the fire and sat
down. Smell had returned. He had found
her gone. while the mountain blizzard
ragged outside.
She choked back a sob and buried her
face in her hands. He had not even
waited to eat, but had caught up the
blankets and started out to hunt sfor
her.

Describes Youth
of Famous Artist

Gainsborough's mother encouraged her
sons first attempts at drawing At twelve
he was filing books with sketches of flow
ers and clumps of trees in the Suffolk
lanes and woods. He showed so much
talent that the family decided to send
him to London to study painting.
The occasion Of the first portrait he
painted was very romantic. He was work
ing on a landscape when young lady
came unexpectedly upon him. He imme-
diately began to transfer her 10 his can
vas. This took some time-long enough
for painter and model to fall in love.
When he was nineteen he married her.
His work became so much the rage that
hisifriends jovially punned upon his name
and dubbed his house Gains Borough"
Though he disagreed with Reynolds and
others of his famous contemporaries,
they all saluted him as q brilliant man
ami great painter-February Designer.

JUdiciOUs Tipping

Katherine Wood believes in tipping
judiciously as a step along the path OF
least resistance. In the March Designer
she writes;
"You like to travel or else you dislike
to travel Putting out Of the question

spirit, the zest for new scenes, all Of
which enter In. the reason for your taste
CT distaste may really lie in your atti-
tude toward some Of what you may have
called inconscqUential details.

heavy suitcase. your hat-box. your coat
and umbrella and that bulky bundle 10

or not the porter will take you the
shortest and easiest way to your train
and youu avoid all that craning and
straining to see where your train starts.
He'll find you seat in a day-coach and
dispose of your parcels for you. so that
you neither have to wrench your own
arm out or rely on the chivalry Of a
chance fellow passenger. Yes, he expects
a tip. but quarter is little enough TO
pay for having the brambles pulled out
Of your path"

VOTE WINTER PORCH

Even in the tiny "all-in-a row" porch
rooms of stereotyped houses one should
strive for a certain measure of originality
and avoid the cheap and trite wicker
lamps the cheapest porch sets, says the
February Designer, in an article on the
porch in winter. One can at least choose
a table bench, which can be bought I'M
finished in a department Of kitchen fur
nishings, two ladderback chairs, an hour
glass and a fine windsor chair. and point
them all a soft midnight blue. Use a
candlestick-ba lamp with a vellum
shade. Put at the paned sashes curtains
of changeable blue and green sunfast,
that marvellous tone Of pale peacock Of
which one never wearies. For hangings
of porch-rooms this changeable peacock
color, old gold. rose, rose red and old
blue are perhaps the most decorative
when considered from outside the house.
