An [?] the Cat Came Back.
A good story < f the cat that camo back is told ut the expo.se of Mrs. Albert Havemeyer. Mr-. Havemeyer had a tabby which became a nuisance about the house and as she did not want to.klll it she resolved to lose the animal. To tips ond she bribed two pi her maid-servants, for $1 apiece and their expenses, to take the offensive beast over to Brooklyn and turn it loose upon the pious town. Tho girls loaded the victim of this conspiracy into a basket and luggod it off. They were gone tho whole afternoon. When they returned they found Mrs. Havemeyer in a fury. An hour before the girls got back the cat had waked into the bouse and brought three strange tomcats w.tb her. Asteroid hunters now use a camera of special construction, aid mounted so that it can follow tho diurnal motion of the stars. In this way several hund:ed times as much area of the sky can bo watched. Fixed stars pho t graph as round dots and planets ae sti eaks or lines. For our own self-culture we can never afford to evade responsibility. It ws c o wo lessen our influence and weaken our character. In one sense wo never ca t evade it, for in refusing one we take another.
