CAGE EIGHT THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, FRIDAY. APRIL 10, 1914

Married Life the Third Year

' "They didn't have any cat shampoo," announced Maggie, depositing two small packages and seventy cents in change on the kitchen table. "But they gave me some other kind. - They said you could use it on anything. That was ten and the fuller's earth was twenty." Helen opened the packages, disclosing a box marked "Fuller's Earth," and a small wooden egg labeled: "Walker's Egg Shampoo, contains enough for ten shampoos. Dissolve in pint of warm water. Shake well and UBe as required. Price 10c." "I don't know anything about this," doubtfully. "Perhaps I ought to use my own shampoo." "Thought I'd better get some kind or I'd have to go back," muttered

Maggie, who hated being sent out for"

things. "Oh, this may be very good," conclliatorily, for Maggie had been very dissatisfied of late, and Helen was constantly in fear that 6he might leave. VWe'li try it anyway. Let's see; have we a pint bottle?" Maggie found an empty bottle, which Helen filled -with warm -water, and then poured in the soapy powder from the little wooden egg. "Oh, that foams nicely," as she shook it up. "No, put down the bathroom window in Mr. Curtis' bathroom that's the largest we'd better wash her In there." Pussy Purrmew, who had been placidly sunning herself on the kitchen window sill, now jumped down and hastily disappeared. She had never had a bath before, yet evidently there was something in these preparations to arouse her suspicions. "Shall I catch her, ma'am?" "No, let's get everything ready first. Now, what pan shall we use." "Whv, ain't you going to wash her in the bathtub?" "Oh, no no. Mr. Curtis would be furious if he thought we washed her in his tub. Besides, they told me par

ticularly not to wet her feet. They said put her on a towel by the pan and scrub her with a brush." "Then you'll have to take the dishpan There ain't nothin' else." "The dishpan! Why, Maggie, you know I couldn't use that. Where's ihe one you make the starch in? There, that's just the thing. Now we'll want about three big bath towels and I'll get my rubber gloves." When everything was ready in the bathroom, Helen brought in Pussy Purrmew, who, sensing something unnsual, squirmed protestingly. "No, no now be a good kitten! We're not going to hurt you. Maggie you're sure this is not too hot? You feel it; I can't tell with these gloves. Put in a little more shampoo. That's not very sudsy." Pussy Purrmew submitted with very bad grace, while Helen lathered her

over and then scrubbed her with a stiff bath brush. "The poor animal, she don't know what to make of it," murmured Maggie, who was always terming her "the poor animal." "Be careful, ma'am, don't get it in her eyes." Pussy Purrmew dry and Pussy Purrmew wet looked astonishingly different. Fpr now her beautifl long fluffy fur was only little dark wisps against a naked pink body, which shivered pathetically under Helen's energetic scrubbing. "Now, you'd better change this water, Maggie; it's pretty dirty." While Maggie filled the pan with fresh warm water and made it sudsy with shampoo, Helen kept Pussy Purrmew's wet, trembling little body covered with a bath towel so she would not take cold. "No No! now, be a good kittencat" as Pussy. Purrmew struggled violently under the fresh onslaught of the brush-. But Helen held her firmly, the rubber gloves protecting her from the vicious little claws. "Now the rinsing water quick, Maggie! Have you got the bluing?" "Yes-up," shaking the tiny bag of bluing in the fresh water. Helen had been amazed when she had first been told to "blue" Pussy Purrmew. Then she learned that nearly all women with gray or white hair put bluing in the rinsing water to keep it from looking yellow. After all it seemed very logical. We blue white clothes why not white hair? When Pussy Purrmew was duly rinsed and blued Helen wiped her thoroughly with a soft bath towel and wrapped her another. "Now, Maggie take out all these wet

towels and clean up. We'd better leave her right in here, where she can't run around and take cold." Helen spread the thick bath mat on the tiled floor, wrapped Pussy Purrmew in still another towel and laid her on it, a comic, helpless bundle, showing only a tiny wet head. She made no effort to struggle from out the towels; wet and frightened, she was grateful for their sheltering warmth. They shut the bathroom door and left her there. But every few minutes Helen would look in to see that she

was not unwrapped. The woman at the cattery, whom Helen had interviewed about washing her, had said that just before she was quite dry a cup of fuller's earth should be thoroughly rabbed into her M

i iur.

And now Helen unwrapped Pussy Purrmew, placed her on a newspaper spread out on the bathroom floor, and

' rubbed the brown sandy dust all over

her. A wet kitten looked pathetic enough but a damp kitten coated with fuller's earth is a picture of abject misery. For once Maggie's "poor animal" was an appropriate phrase. It was over two hours before she was thoroughly dry, and then came the process of brushing out the earth. But this Pussy Purrmew loved. She layed stretched out on the paper, purring loudly, while Helen brushed her until her fur was soft and silkly and at least two shades lighter. Then Helen was called away to the telephone, and right after that the man came to put some weather strippins on the window. So the newspapers she had left on Warren's bathroom floor were entirely forgotten. "What are those papers, in my bathroom for?" he demanded as soon as he came home that evening. "Oh, did I forget to take those out?" And Helen h,urried in to gather them up. "We washed Pussy Purrmow tnHa v nnr T nut th naner down

! to brush her on."

"Ugh!" graunted Warren. "Can't you find any better way to spend your time than to wash a cat?" "But, dear, everyone said if I'm to exhibit her this year she ought to be washed. Wait till you see how beautiful she looks." It was not until after they were seated at dinner that Pussy Purrmew deigned to appear and take her favor-

"Look, dear, isn t sue lovely .' You see how much lighter she is?" "TJm-m. she does look lighter," ad-

! mitted Warren. "How'd you wash i her? Didn't enjoy it much, did she?" "No: but she was very good bet-

j ter than I thought she'd be. And we

rubbed her all over with , fuller s earth. That's what makes her fur so silky. And, oh, what do you think?" laughingly, "We blued her!" Warren grunted unbelievingly. "But we did, dear. That's to keep her fur from looking yellowish " "Who put that idea in your head?" "Why, everyone who has gray or

white hair pots bluing in the rinsing water.; "Nonsense!" . ' "They do, dear, it makes a better color. That's what 111 hare to do some day." And Helen sighed as she invariably did when she thought of growin gold. "Well, it effects the color. You Just said that's why they used It." "Tea, I know but that Isn't " "There, you admit it again. My mother has gray hair and she doesn't try to change its color, and you'll not either. It's bad enough to have your face plastered up with pow without having your hair artificial too." "Why, Warren, you know I use very little powder." ... , "Oh, you do, do you? Then why does it come off on my coat every time you come near me? But I'll not stand for any touched-up hair understand that?" "Oh, dear, how foolish! think what an absurd thing we're quarreling about! I haven't even one gray hair yet, and I won't have." laughingly, "unless you keep on arguing about such ridiculouiuthings." "Armlnr? m'ra Aninv tha ami.

"No, dear," conciliatory, for his voice had grown more heated. "Do try some of these stewed apples. There the ones Uncle John sent us. What day did he sad he'd be in town again? Thursday, wasn't it?" And so Helen adroitly changed the subject, avoiding a more serious clash, as she had so many countless times before.

Principal of True Life

Widespread interest is being taken in the thrilling five-reel photo-drama, "A Boy and the Law," or "The Russian Refugee," which shows at the Murray theatre today. Unlike any other moving picture that has ever been produced, this remarkable feature is absolutely true to life, covering eight years in the exciting experiences of William Eckstein, a Russian lad who fled to this country after having been imprisoned for connection with a Nihilist society. He came to America with the idea that here we have no laws whatever, and had to learn the difference between our institutions and those of despotic Russia, It was in Salt Lake City that young Eckstein first met Judge Willis Brown,

Picture Play Here Today.

author of the play and founder ot Parental Courts and under whose guidance he gra dually developed into a law-abiding and law-loving American citizen. Judge Brown himself as well as Mr. Eckstein posed, for this unusual photo-play last summer, and it was first presented to the public at Wm. Morris New York theatre for an entire week to capacity houses. Since then it has had a wonderful run of popularity in Boston, Buffalo and fctroit. Young Mr. Eckstein, who is now 21 years of age, was Invited to Detroit by the Press Club of that city when the feature created a sensation there recently, and Manager Murray secured his consent to appear at the performances here today. A recordbreaking attendance is expected.

Murray Theatre Next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. "THE TENDERFOOT"

From the Evening Telegram, Superior, Wisconsin : "When the famous comedian. Rich ard Carle, played in the original production of "The Tenderfoot," it is doubtful if he ever appeared before a more appreciative audience than last night greeced the initial performance of the noted musical comedy in tab"loid. And Harry Shannon, in the role of '' "Professor Zachary Pettibone," Carle's former part, drew a hand from the Broadway crowd that would have made the original character jealous. The show yesterday played to capacity audiences at all thrpe performances and during the remainder of the engagement doubtless will continue to threaten the attendance record at the theatre.

Shannon's performance, however, was not the only feature o& the entertainment. "The Tenderfoot" is crammed full of laughable situations aud the tabloid production is boiled down to include all of the very best of them. A well drilled chorus assist in making the tabloid a distinct hit. A male chorus, a new feature for the Broadway, is one .of the distinguishing marks of the offering. The girls are admirably costumed and exceedingly good looking.'., The specialties introduced during the action of the play are led by the "Texas Rangers' quartet which was a big hit last evening. All in all the show is an exceedingly pleasing one and no one should miss the opportunity of seeing it."

Coffee Drinkers, And Think a Minute!

Some persons seem able, for a time at least, to get along with coffe, but it contains a subtle, habit-forming drug, caffeine, which sooner or later is pretty sure to rob one of health and comfort. If you know coffee don't harm you if you feel prime and fit under its continued use, well and good stick to it. But if you are sometimes a bit "off color," and irritable nerves, disturbed heart action, biliousness, headache, or symptoms of liver or kidney trouble make you wonder what's the matter Better find out what coffee has to do with it. Evidently some people are learning the truth about coffee listen During 1913 the sales of coffee in this country decreased over one hundred million pounds.
