are Joe, Tommie Of Kittie Kat. Or
maybe he win suppose you are Bully
or Bawly No Tail, one of The frog
toys trying to fasten a eat tail
plant on yourself to look stylish.
Anyhow Uncle Wiggily will jump
into the swamp to help You, and
then you can grab him and hold him
until | come aud nibble his ears. -
'tUm! UNI" murmured the Bob
Cat. 81 sounds all right M
sit will be all rignt!' declared
the Fox. Run to the swamp!o
SO the Bob Cat took the short cut
and got to the cat-tail swamp be-
fore Uncle Wiggily reached it. And
then seeing the rabbit gentleman
coming, the bad chap began to
moan:
"Oh, dear! Oh, dear! If some
one would only help me fasten on
one of these tails! Oh dear!"
"Ha! Hal" laughed Uncle Wig
gily. "That must be one of the Kat
children playing game, or Bully
or Bawly trying to fasten on one
of these. brown tails. | must tell
them how silly they arep'
The bunny gentleman started to
make his way through the swamp,
and the Bob Cat scrouched down ON
a hilloek of grass, ready to grab
the bunny when, all of a sudden,
the bad chap slipped and fell into
the water. Now the Bob Cat didn t
like to get wet, and when he felt
the water he gave a howl and yowl
and right away Uncle Wiggily knew
who it was.
''Oh, no! SO you re the Bob Cat,
are you! Trying to get me into the
swamp where you can nibble me!
But 1 see you! Aou shan t fool me! -
And with that the bunny pulled
some of the round cat-tail ciumps
and threw them at the Bob Cat, hit
ting him on the nose and knocking
him into the water again. And
while the Bob Cat was scribbling
and scrabbling and splashing in the
swamp, Mr.. Longears hoped out on
the road again and went on to seek
another adventure.
And when the Bob Cat, wet and
bedragglcd, erawled out of the eat
tail swamp the Fox met him and
asked: Ibid you catch the rab-
bit 10
mo! No! Ker choo. Kcr ehoo!
No! No! ker choo! Ker chowln
sneezed the Bob Cat. "All / caught
was a cold! And il s all your fault
ker choo! ker chow!n
SO this teaches us it is better to
be what we are than something
else. And if the little. chicken does
not try to jump through alt the holes
in the swiss cheese and get so tired
it has ts sleep in the pansy bed, n
tell you next about Uncle Wiggily
and Jingle's trick.

POsTOFFICE A STORAGE PLANT

The public has chance to help the government
save large chunk of the public money if it wishes.
Last year. it reported the United States postoffice
sustained the expense of storage for six months each
on 100000 parcels ultimately found unbelievable.
Sometimes there is dispute between sender and ad
dressee which postpones the delivery of parcel and
during the period of delay Uncle Sam holds the pack
age and provides free storage for it. But most often
the cause of this costly delay of mail lies entirely with
the sender who fails to address the package properly
The postoffice proposes to remedy this evil Be-
ginning August 1, mailers of parcels will be required
to guarantee return postage on all non-deliverabe
packages. If any sender refuses to this obli
cation he will automatically forfeit all claim to the
parcel, which will be put up at auction along with
other unclaimed articles.
This is wholly reasonable step on the part of the
such saving public money, essenng losses of mail
ed articles encouraging greater accuracy in address
ing mail and speeding up the handling of such parcels
Perhaps the saving effected will have beneficial
influence upon the incomes of postal clerks and letter
carriers.

THE TOURISTS OUTLOOK

What does the ordinary traveller, by motor or
train, see he travels? Blboards and sgnposts, of
course; but let not be flippant He sees land and
water, mostly, in their various aspects. Occasionally
he patch of sky. But his attention seldom turns
upward except in of storm exceptional
sunset, for mere weather observation. And that
is great pity.
~ tourist with an eye for beauty and an eager
ness to seek it above we'll below and around
speaks with enthusiasm of the beauty of the skies
long automobile tour. She never wearied of
the great of the heavens spread out before
her, ever varying interesting and usually beautl-
full. Whether the landscape attractive not,
there the gores of sunrise and sunset and the
blue and gold and shifting cloud-scenery throughout
the long day.
She made it her business to these regularly as
other conscientious but low-vsoned travellers see all
the terrestrial points of interest"
But the ow-visioned travellers not altogether
to blame. For travelling conditions and equipment
really conspre against them. On trains, their vision
is shut in overhead and often horizontally And auto
mobiles tend to limit the tourists view more and more
This comfortable for the body but unfair to the SOUL
1t may be too much to expect tourists to travel with
the top down, in these degenerate days. But why
not manufacturers produce with sheltering
but transparent top to let the sky glories through and
adapt other types of conveyances better to observation
purposes?

A MUSEUM OF FASHIONS

Something new in museums is to be established in
Paris. For some time that city has been having
fashion exposition in connection with its annual art
salons These exhibitions have been so successful that
they have suggested the idea of permanent museum
devoted entirely to the history of fashions.
The Municipal Council is expected to appropriate
funds for the creation and upkeep of the
Trade organizations and business houses will be asked
to subscribe.
There will be examples of successive fashions in
dress through the ages and complete collection of
fashion journals, drawings and designs by fashion
artists
Perhaps mere fashions in themselves do not de-
much attention and serious study. But
fashions they reflect different periods in civza-
tion and such different times and and recent
progress toward healthful and sensible clothing
and habits will have interest for many different classes
of people, from the sociologst and artist to the hy
genst. Undoubtedly, too, of the fashions dis
played in this always horrible
amples of how again to dress.

One dav when the wind was blow
ing the green rNshes and the brown
tails in the swamp, the Fox rushed
over to the den of the Bob Cat and
tie Fox, grinning to show his sharp
teeth, barked out:
- have just thought of won
derful way for you to catch Uncle
Wiggily!"
"How come!' asked the Bob Cat
asking your pardon for using bit
OF slang.
- just saw that rabbit hopping
along the path near the swamp,N
went on the Fox. "If you take the
short cut you can get to the swamp
first. As soon as you are there be-
giG to NEW and meaow and cry out
III a sad voice for help.
But l don't need any help OBJ
jected the Bob Cat. ~ think that

"Wait! begged the Fox. "You
will hide in the swamp and NEW
and meaow and say: son dear!
Will somebody please help me fast

yon must say Mr.. Bob Cat.
s'That sounds more silly than

how L don t need Il tail. 1t is true
the one j have doesn t amount to
rauch, being very short, but as far

UNCLE WIGGILY AND TIE CAT
TAILS

Growing in a swamp, near a patch
of woods, not far from Uncle Wig
gily's hollow stump bungalow We're
many brown cat tails. Perhaps you
may say there never was a brown
eat and l must say | never saw one.
And you may think it queer to hear
of eat tails growing in d swamp.
Some of you, of course, know what
[ am going to tell you about. And
to the other children / would say
that there is tall green plant
which grows in wet places in the
country and this plant is called a
eat tail flag, though really there is
no flag. But amid the tall, slim
green rushes there are long stems
on which is a round, brown, soft
clamp and this looks like a cat s
tail, being about as long as one. So
that is what these plants are called.

AN AMERICAN NOBILITY

How shall that big foreign debt to the United
States be paid, if the debtor nations unable
willing to pay it? If is merely question of getting
the money back into the United States Treasury to pay
off the bonds and bring taxes down to peace
basis, says ingenious American, the thing be
managed easily enough. Get the money from Amer
lean multi-millionaires by selling them titles.
American regard for titles of nobility is well
known, especially among wealthy women. Why should
these have to go abroad and marry impecunous
nobemen to get their coveted titles? Captains of in
dusry and retired capitalists and the heirs of such
could easily afford them
Sell 20 prncedoms at S50,000,OOO each, 100 duke
doms at $40,000000 each 300 marquisates at S20000
900 each, 500 eardoms at $4,000 900 each and 1000
baronetcies at $5,900000. That, says the proposer
will bring in 100000 wipe out the foreign debt
and keep socially ambitious at home. We
shall have the money, the heiresses and the titles
OF course it would be unconstitutional but what's
the Constitution between debt collectors and title
worshippers? Now let somebody propose that in Con-
