The Right Thing
at the Right Time
By MABY MARSHALL S. Drri’E.E.
V J
When Not to Gesture
There is one point in common between
the manners of well-bred English folk
and well-bred Americans and that is that
they do not gesture and gesticulate.
A Frenchman could not talk ten min
utes without shrugging the shoulders,
whereas by many Englishmen this simple
gesture is considered rather vulgar in
his own kind.
If all gesturing rould l>e graceful, then
we Americans might not be prejudiced
against it; but it is only the very excep
tional persons among us who can make
gesticulations gracefully.
Pointing is a form es festure that is
always ugly and usually perfectly unnec
essary.
One form of gesture is that of handling
the person with whom you are talking.
We all know women who strike the
arms of the men—even mere acquain
tances—with whom they are talking.
Sometimes they pick small particles of
dust and thread from their sleeves as
they do so.
I have yet to know the man who din
not dread the approach of these -pan
ing” women, many of whom have adopted
tbe habit merely because they thought
it indicative of ease and comeraderie of
manner.
At table it is especially necessary that
we should avoid adding to the eloquence*
of our speech by gestures.
The man who, to illustrate his re
marks. makes diagrams on the table with
bis knife and fork is almost as amusing
as the man who beats time to the music
at a restaurant and points with his fork
between mouthfuls.—Copyright. 1920.

ROME. May 13.—Signor Mela, loade

Following the resignation of the Nitti

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
By DAVID CORY.
CHAPTER XXXIV.
As Puss entered the castle, which be
longed to the Giant of the Merry laiugh.
as J told yon in the last story, he al
most stumbled over a giant mouse. It
was the largest mouse Puss had ever
seen. Indeed, it was almost as big as he
was, and you can imagine it must have
been a pretty large mouse.
“I’m not afraid of you,’’ said the
mouse, with a very lond squeak, and he
whisked his long tail and look at Puss
; very fiercely.
"Look here,” cried the Giant of the
Merry Laugh, “don't you know who this
is? This is Puss Junior.” And when the
giant mouse heard that he said : “Pleased

Cat?” Asked the Cobbler.
to meet you, Sir Cat. I have often beard
j of you from the Little People of Mother
i Goose,” And he put ont his paw and
j shook hands with onr small traveler.
After that the giant showed Puss all
! over the castle, and many strange things
were there. And they were all so very
: big that it made Puss feel dreadfully
small, and he was very glad when it
•was time to say good-bye, for he wasn’t
used to such great big things, you
knew.
So he mounted his Good Gray Horse
! and rode away, and by and by he came
to a blacksmith shop and so he stopped

“Tick, tack, two or three.
Give the horse a shoe.
Here's a nail that will not fall.
Tick, tack, two.”
’’Can yon put a shoe on me?” asked
Puss with a grin.
“No. my little eat,” replied the
smithy, "but there's a cobbler in town
who will do tbe trick. His shop is down
tbe street a little ways.” So after the
Good, Gray Horse was shod Puss made
off. and by and by he came to the boot
shop. And right in front of the door sat
the cobbler, a little, old man with a bent
back and knotty hands, and when he
saw Puss he said:
“Shall I make you a boot. Sir Cat, to
day?
t b.vo a pair that is laid away
Upon the shelft, with red tops, too;
Come, let me sell them now to you.”
“Very well,” replied our little traveler.
“If they fit me I will bay them, for mine
are indeed shabby with much trayel.”
So the old bootmaker got down the
boots and they fitted Puss without a
wrinkle. “What is the price?" he asked,
gazing down at them with a grin. “They
fit me well, but will the price?”
“Make me an offer, Sir Cat,” replied
the cobbler, “and if you are as generous
as you are good looking they art yours."
This was too much for Pass. Ue didn't
know what to say, so he took a gold
piece from his purse nDd the bootmaker
banded over the shoes.
“Good luck, Sir Cat;’* he cried as Puss
Junior rode away.—Copyright, 1930.
