PUSS IN BOOTS JR. By David Cory. Puss Junior and his little friend, the Gnome King, traveled on and on until they found themselves at the foot of a high, round hill. At one side of the great mound the stream which they had been following suddenly stopped short, mak ing a deep well, over which hung an old oak tree. Right at the foot of this tree was an upright gray stone, part of a rock deep ly sunk in the hillside. Here the Gnome paused, and, turning to smile reassur ingly at Puss, picked up a pebble about the size of an acorn and dropped it into the well, at the same time knocking gent ly on the flat stone. In a moment the rock opened In the middle, and there stood a little old wom an, as withered as a spring apple and as bright as a butterfly, dressed in a scar let bodice covered with spangles and a black petticoat. On seeing the Gnomhe she made a low bow, and In a shrill, eager voice Invited them in. Puss hesitated, but the little old woman snatched his paw and pulled him In, asking In a whisper, “Dost thou fear for thyself when in the company of the King of the Gnomes?” Then, open ing a low door In the side of the cavern. She beckoned them to follow. In the middle of a still larger room stood an armchair, fashioned from beryl and Jas per, with knobs of amethyst and topaa. Toward this the Gnome walked, while the old woman brought forth a robe of vel vet, green and soft ns forest moss, and, placing a ring of rough gold on his head, she held up the train of his royal robe while he sat himself down in his chair of state. After making another low reverence to the Gnome King, she handed the little monarch his sceptre, which was a tall bulrush of gold. Leaning forward, he touched her on the head with it, when to Puss Junior's astonishment she turned into a beautiful bluebird. “Ilereafter,” said the Gnome King, looking kindly at Puss, “this bird shall be your companion and will show you many and curious things. I can spare no more time, for my people must be gov erned, but because of your great fond ness for fairy tales. I now leave you in the care of this bluebird. Unless, per chance, yon wish to return to yous father." But Puss answered eagerly tha< he would rather see more of Gnome land, and so would I and so would you, I'm sure. “Good luck to you!” cried the Gnome King, as he shook hands with Puss, and Puss found himself once more by the side of the great flat stone in the hill side, where the rippling waters of the little stream flowed Into the pool at the foot of the great oak tree. And In the next story you shall heat how Puss met an ugly little dwarf.— Copyright, 192 L (To be continued.) HOROSCOPE “The stars Incline, but do not compel I" THURSDAY, MARCH 10. Astrologers read this as an unimpor tant day. Venus is iu an aspect mildly j encouraging to the affairs of men and women. During this rnie no risks should be ! taken, but it is probable that tempta- | tion to speculate will be strong. Women have the forecast of good fortune at this . time. They should, however, pursue rou tine matters. Many marriages cf wide interest will mark the spring of this year and dis parity of age will be frequent. Railway matters will not be satisfac tory and there may be a great number of accidents. Persons whose birthdate it is have the tugnary of a quiet year that should be very ha pry. Children born on this day are likely to be quick, alert and nervous. These 1 subjects of Pisces usually have a great desire for change and travel. —Copyright, 1921. i PIIV!FLY?W£LI DONTBE People Notice It Drive Them Off with Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets A pimply face will not embarrass you much longer if you get a package of Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets.
