Mr.. Cuyler Presents His Compi-
r'ments.

TIME youthful Mrs. Lindsay was
bored with her own company.
al And a bit fed up with Susan
Sue. who was a most exem-
plary' housemaid. but not a very en-
livening companion. Moreover Susan
Sue. grim and ffty-eight, had prom
ised Mr.. Lindsay that she would see
that Mrs. Lindsay took cold tablets
every hour. In vain did Merriam protest
that she didn't believe such wee tab
let's would prove efficacious for SO
elephantine a cold. Susan Sue had
her orders and she was going to obey
them.
Merriam looked dolefully out at the
slushy, rainy streets, applied her re-
trousse nose-which. 1t must be ad-
mitted, was more than a trifie red
and swolien--to the eighteenth micro
scopic handkerchief since breakfast,
gave vent to a terrific sneeze, fol-
lowed by an enormous yawn that end
ed in sigh that suspiciously threat
ened to turn into a sob.
"'Oh, Susan Sue" she murmured. Il

afraid you might give it to anybody
who sees you. and, no matter how
many folks you give it to, you still
have even more cold left"
"And, getting it in the winter of
the year. as you might say. it's sure
to last through with you until late
spring." Susan Sue, a Jobs comforter
at the best, was inJ great form, "and
many's the cold that turns into pneu-

again. She had tried every maga-
zine in the house, and found all OF

pricked her finger. played solitaire
until she hated the sight Of the cards
and was rapidly reaching the stage
where she felt like letting out four
loud yells of ennui.

sleep and couldn't. A disconsolate
figure, she curled her feet under her
