PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
By DAVID CORY.
You remember ln the last story how
Ptiss frightened the six little tailor mice.
Well, after that ho went down the
road and by and by he met a lovely
Pussy Cat Lady who carried a green
parasol over her head and a pretty van
ity bag ln her left paw.
So Puss bowed very politely and she
asked him to walk with her, and talk
•with her, for she was lonely, don't you
see, and longed for someone's oomppny.
So Puss told her he had frightened
the tailor mice and this made her laugb.
OS?
“I went to London to see the Queen,"
said the lady cat..
“I did something like that myself,” she
said. “I went to London to see the
Queen, and while I was there I fright
ened a little mouse under the chair.”
“Tell me about it,” said Puss. “I
have never seen the Queen." So tbo
Pussy Cat commenced:
“When I reached Buckingham palace
I was shown into a magnificent room.

and Jußt as I heard tfla Queen cc-mlng
down the stairs a little mouse ran across
the room. And, oh, dear me! I forgot
ail about my manners and went afrer
that mouse, and the first thing I anew
I was out of ""the front door and :he
tig, tall footman wouldn’t lef me in
again. So I never met the Queen.
Wasn’t that too bad?”
“And you didn’t even catch the
mouse?” asked Puss with a grin.
“No,” said she Pussy Cat. And then
she said goodby to our little traveler,
who once more set out upon the road
ln search of adventure.
And toward evening he came ln sight
cf a little cottage, and the cheerful light
ln the kitchen window made Puss hope,
that he would find supper and lodging
for the night. But no one answered his
knock, so he pushed open tho door and
walked ln. And Just then a motherly
looking woman came down the stairs
and said:
Diddle, diddle dumpling, my son John,
Went to bed with hla breeches on;
One stocking off and one stocking on.
Diddle, diddle dumpling, my son John.
And Just then there was a tremendous
noise overhead and pretty soon a small
boy came tumbling down the stair. And
when he saw Puss he wanted to plaj
with him right away.
“But I have no time to plav with boys
who go to bed with their breeches on
and one stocking off and one stocking
on,” said Puss Junior. And he picked
up his cap and was about to leaie, al
though It was dark outside, for he didn't
like naughty boys any more than you
and I do.
“Please don't go,” said John's mother,
and shs gave Puss a saucer of cream;
and after that she turned to her naughty
son and said; "You ought to bs
ashamed of yourself. Do you know who
this is? Why, he’s the son of Puss in
Roots!”
And this made John dreadfull*
ashamed of himself, and he went up
stairs to bed and went to sleep right
If milk were scarce its great
value as food for young and old would be more
readily recognized. For if milk could only be
obtained by doctors’ prescriptions—you would
gladly go to the drug store and pay a dollar
a pint.
But, thank goodness, fnilk isn’t
scarce—it’s plentiful, pure and good. But sad
to relate, it isn’t used liberally enough despite
its comparative cheapness when compared to
foods of less nutritive value.
The health and growth of chil
dren, the power to resist disease and the main
tenance of bodily strength in adults depends
not on the amount of food taken into the body,
hut nourishment, derived from the food eaten.
Milk is easily digested—there is no waste, and
every drop goes toward making perfect health
and maximum growth.
Families who use milk liberally
and at every meal have rosy cheeked, bright,
energetic children, and the adults are able to
maintain their weight and health without con
suming great quantities of indigestible food.
Best of all, their meals cost less.
Prove it by ordering a quart of milk
a day for each member of YOUR family. Then
watch the consequent improvement in health and the
actual decrease of living expenses. Milk takes the
place of higher priced foods which are not so nutrttious.
Be sure you order Polk’s Best.
