Cat Tale: "A gentleman VINO de-
tests cats paid an overnight visit to
friends who have a large cat as
pet. All during the evening, the
man eyed the cat and the cat eyed
the man. With true feline wisdom,
the cat evidently sensed dislike and
kept as far away from the visitor as
possible which, of course. was quite
satisfactory. The guest was also
quite well pleased that when he
went to bed the cat was nowhere
in sight. Having made himself ready
for the pillow, following custom, he
Amounted his head with a sweet
smelling preparation that keeps the
hair in place, and lay down to pleas
ant dreams. Hardly had he passed
out than he was awakened and there
was the cat up on the bed licking
his hair. Needless to say there was
immediate election. But as soon as
he was again asleep, the cat came
back. And so it went the entire
night. Therefore, should he make
another visit he either will omit hair
oil or see to it that the cat is put out
before he retires. Or still better, he
can learn to love cats, stop using
hair oil and lock the door at night.
