One morning Pus* Junior awoke to find himself under a spreading chestnut tree. He had forgotten that he had fallen asleep the night before and that the owl who owned this beautiful big tree had Invited him to sleep beneath its friendly shade. Puss rubbed his eyes and looked about him. The golden rays of the morning sun gleamed through the open space* “In a few minutes they had reached the other shore.’* and made him blink and wink, so that he hardly noticed the ferns and wild flowers that smiled under the touch of the merry sunshine. “Heigh-ho,” yawned Puss. “I must be up and on my way, for a traveler must never be lazy." “Bravely said,’’ tooted the Owl who owned the tree, and he flew down from his honse In a big. hollow, limb, and handed our small traveler a saucer of cream for breakfast. And as soon as Puss had drank it, he said goodby and went upon bis way and by and by he came to a great big pond. But how was he to get across? For there was no boat in sight, and he didn't want to swim with his big boots on his feet, and, of course, he wouldn't leave his boots be hind him. And while he sat there won dering what to do. a big white duck swam up to the bank. "Oh, duck, dear duck, see, here I stand, My trusty sword held in m.v hand.

Now, when I get home I’ll throw it in the water, and they can dive for It; and whoever gets It can buy a stick of candy. “Well, well,” laughed Puss; “that’s a good idea. Here’s another penny. It isn't quite so bright, but it will do in case you lose the first one.” “By the way, my little friend,” said the duck, as Puss started to go upon his way, "where do you expect to find lodgings when evening comes?” “I’m sure I don’t know," answered Puss; "but a wise traveler never crosses his bridge till he comes to it,’’ and Puss winked as he repeated this saying, which you have probably heard.

Goodrich’s parole and pardon system Is keeping the police forces of Indiana cities on the Jump, according to CJiief of Police Forbis, a republican of this city. The wholesale pardon record of the governor does not appeal to the chief, who believes it is largely responsible for the high criminal record in the state. “It is the Goodrich parole and pardon system that keeps the police departments busy in Indiana today,” Chief Forbis said. He said he had just received a request for the records of the cases of six men convicted three weeks ago in Crown Point for robbing a jewelry store so that the governor would have the references at hand when ready to issue their par dons. The sextet had been given long hours in the penitentiary, but the chief believes they will soon be released as so many other criminals have been by Gov. Good rich. NO G. 0.
