Pet Cats Want
Variety In
Diet
By LIZ HUME

An intelligent cat, reasons
Tommy, owned by Mrs. Carrie
EdmondS, Of Browntown. Va,
keeps track of his weight.
Tommy, his mistress de-
clares, is the cleverest of little
felineS. He is, she writes:
-Four years old, and knows
almost anything there is to
know. One of his favOrite
tricks is to pretend to smoke a
rolled bit of paper as a Gig
arctic. He tips the scales at IL
pounds"
It is an excellent idea to
weigh your pet from time to
time. Almost any indulgent
owner Is apt to overfeed a dog
or cat, and too much stuffing is
as bad for them as it is for
humans.
Need Meat
Cats, especially, need regular
meals of the right kind. Twice
a day is about right. Milk is,
of course, good, but it does not
take the place of other food.
Meat is a necessity. 1t should
be served raw and we'll chopped,
except liver, which may be
slightly grilled. Fish must be
cooked and all bones removed.
Vegetables, with the excep-
ton of potatoes, should be given
the cat regularly, and he should
be trained to eat them. Cats
usually like asparagus, beetS and
sweet corn. Sometimes they
will develop a liking for to-
matoes or cabbage, but this is
unusual. Give it to them If
they do.
Cereal is good in moderation.
A teaspoonful of olive or min
eral oil on their food once a
week will improve their appe-
tite and condition generally.
Tastes Change
Cats like fresh green stuff
and if you have no lawn it is
we'll to grow a bit for them.
Sow a few oats or canary seed
in a shallow pan and give your
cats the green tops.
Fresh catnip is a good tonic.
They love to roll in it as we'll
as eat it. Dried catnip will do
if you can't get the fresh. But
unless you want to clean up
the debris be sure to give it
to them in a box where it will
not be scattered and can be
eaten at leisure.
The tastes of the individual
cat will vary considerably. It
is we'll to study your particular
pet and then vary his food as
much as possible within the
limits of that which is good
for him and that which isn't.
1t is unkind to expect a cat
to eat just table scraps regard
less of his likes and dislikes.
Many a cat will go without
food rather than touch some
thing he does not like.
If you have a good picture of
your pet, Liz Hume invites you
to send it in for use in this col
umn. No pictures returned.
1t is also very probable that
some of your experiences would
be of interest and value to other
owners of pets. Address Liz
Hume, care of The Washington
Times.

WORLD!
DRUE LEYTON
By ELSIE ROBINSON

seek for answers in your home,
in school, in business, in mar
riage, in work and play. And
you are angry when you do not
find the thing you want in the
place where you seek. You are
sure you should find it there
something's wrong if you don't.
So you blame Society, or Other
People, or Fate, or God.
With the years the blaming
and the bitterness increases.
You decide that life's a mess.
You lose faith in everything,
everybody-begin to say cynical
things. And you wonder if
anyone else has ever felt as
you do.
Of course they have. Every
human being who dared to
think deeply about life, dared
to demand answers from life,
has felt just as you are feeling.
Cave men, brooding in the
Steaming darkness of primeVal
jungles .savages, tenting in
the vast loneliness of the desert
staring up at the silent, mock
ing stars. giants of industry
sitting hunched and desperate
over shining, mahogany desks
in roaring skyscrapers. every
woman who ever yearned des-
perately for the love of a man
or the clutch of a baby's fingers
.. they have all thought as you
are thinking.
Your prayer is part OF one,
great common prayer that rises,
endlessly from Man to God.
Always men are wanting
something-asking God for
something-telling God exactly
what they want, and how to
do it.
Once the poet George Mac
Donald (who probably peStered
God a good deal himself) told
of that common prayer in a
little poem of three verses
which he called That Holy
Thing" He begins far back
with the arrogant, desperate
prayer that rose out of that
world into which Jesus Christ
was born
"They all were looking for a
king
To slay their foes and lift them
high;
Thou cam'st, a little baby thing
That made a woman cry"
Then he speaks of his own
need and his disappointment be-
cause he could not find the an
Swer where he sought it:
20 Son of Man, to right my lot
Naught but Thy presence can
avail:
Yet on the road Thy wheels are
not,
Nor, on the sea, Thy sail!"
And, suddenly, the truth
comes to him and he tells how
the answer comes to all of us
after our proud planning has
failed:
my how or when Thou wilt not
heed
But come down Thine own Sc
cret stair,
That Thou mayst answer all my
Yea, every bygone prayer"
Not in the proud trappings of
royal success, nor on the flash
ing sails or the roaring wheels
of reckless adventure comes the
answer to our need-but in the
quiet places of our daily lives, in
the familiar tasks.
In those simple places and
acts where we have never
thought to seek happiness, wis
dom, and strength, Down Thine
own secret stair"-that is how
help comes.

tan. Please help me. Sin
cerely, A. I.
Dear Miss A. l.:
Lines and wrinkles under the
eyes may be due to lack Of rest
and sleep and poor circulation,
as well as to eye strain and a
dry skin. Battle your eyes fire.
quently with an eye lotion, use
congresses of cotton Wrung
from cold water and drenched
with a soothing lotion placed
over the eyes. Witch-haZel is
good, or cold tea. Smooth
cream around the eyes before
placing the congresses, then re-
lax.
A good eye tissue cream would
be helpful, smoothed gently
around the eyes from the inner
upper corners describing a Cir
Gle around the eye.
Better circulation will help
your sallow skin. Brisk walks,
deep breathing, daily baths fol-
lowed by brisk friction with
rough towel. Use a skin clear
ing or mild bleaching cream.
A yeast pack is good: Made by
mixing yeast cakes with milk to
a paste. Buttermilk and corn
meal makes a good pack,
whitening in effect. other local
remedies are tomato and lemon
juice, peroxide diluted three
parts and buttermilk. Take a
glass of hot water every morn
ing with juice of lemon.

Dear Miss H. j. K.
With your blond skin you
can wear light rachel or peach
or natural. And you can wear
a fanny rouge, or geranium or
coral. For eye makeup, a little
blue-green shadow, or green, if
your eyes are quite dark, will
be nice for your eyes, with a
little brown mascara.

MRS. H. r.
You are absolutely correct
when anyone of diplomatic or

Advice to the
LoveIorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Greater Courage Than
the Angels

the Angels
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm 20 years old, and very
much in love with a girl of 10.
She is already married, but I
honestly believe I could make
her much happier than her
husband.
She seems to care a great
deal for him, but has also
given me much encouragement.
I don't know what to do. Could
you advise me? PUZZLED.
Don't do anything is the best
advice I can give you. The
married girl of 10 is probably
just amusing herself with you,
and you would certainly find
yourself in the midst of an
embarrassing situation if her
husband discovered that you
were philandering around his
wife, and imagining you could
make her happier than he does.
Shall She Write First?
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Toward the end of my vaca-
ton at one of the beaches, I
met a very nice girl, but, as
my time was nearly up. I had
to go home. We agreed to cor
respond, as she lives in an"
other town.
Is it proper for me to write
first, since I was the first to
leave the beach, or shall I
wait for her letter? We
chummed around together for
about two weeks, and decided
we liked each other quite we'll.
She's 10 and I'm Is.
HENRY.
When young people have en-
joyed a pleasant and formal
acquaintance, during vacation,
there isn't any hard and fast
rule about writing. BY this
time the young lady has per-
haps written you, and if she
has not, why not write to her,

Can you recommend a good
reducing diet? I am eighteen,
and terribly fat, but 1 work, and
I get headache if I don't eat.
BETTY.
Go to your doctor, and ask
his advice. You may have some
glandular irregularity that is
causing the excess fat. I would
not do any dieting until you
have a physical examination,
and then do exactly as the doc

Do you put rum in tea or

it was all right to put brandy
in coffee, so I wondered about
the rum. What is mate?

A little rum may be added to
hot tea, if one likes the flavor.
Never put rum in iced tea. Rum
may be added to hot coffee, but
brandy is much better.

cial when one il tired, either
