Therefore an hour nfterwnrd found

expects cats to exercise their voices,
and I'm thankful that both tieorge and
I are sound sleepers and so shall not

L*>nt y*m really l<elleve that Frank's
nerves must lie upset to mind it?"
"I don't know," saM practical Uuda.
"lie seems to be pretty well, but nat
urally no one Itkes to lose his rest night

"And hereafter he will be known as
Blessums Bliss." chirnipe-5 Mrs. Bliss
as she waved a farewell to her friend.
Thus was accomplished the adoption
of Blessums. the beautiful tortoise shell
cat that had. been Unda llildreth'a
pride and delight
"What did you do about t}ie cat?"
asked her husband at dinner that
night.
"Gave him to May Bliss." said Unda
with affected cheerfulness "She was
delighted."
"Doesn't know him as well as 1 do."
observed Frank resentfully, awl then,
because he knew that his wife bad
been fond of the animal, he launched
forth into a detailed description of all
the horrors he had suffered through
the vocal clamor of the tortoise shell
eat. "I'm sorry. Unda." he said a polo
pet ically when he could find no more
epithets to bestow upon the absent
Blessums, "but the cat may pet over
the habit, and then 1 shall he glad to
see him grace onr fireside once more."
"T?e never will." said Unda sorrow
fully .
"Why not?"
"May Bliss wouldn't plvc him np
now."
"Well, rn pet yon another cat? a
rVrsian." promised Flildreth recklessly
for he was a kind hearted fellow and
hated U^-c his pretty wife distressed.
"No^roank you. Frank I'd rather
not have any." And because Unda
believed In making her sacrifices as
cheerfully as human nature would per
mtt she cbanprd the subject by Inquir
ing what had happened dnring his day
tn the city
It was lonp after midnlpht when a
familiar sound brc le the peaceful
rtuBbm of Frank lllldreth. He start
ed op and t?n?ed fiis- head toward the
I closed south window of hi* room. Tb?
west windows were wide open.
"Me*-e-e-rowr

Frank thumped out of bed and threw
up the south window. Below, on the
moonlit path at ttie foot of the roe*
trellt*. sat Blessunis. gazing op at bis
erstwhile master.
"Me-e-e-e-row!" tie repeated mourn
fully.
? There will be a row- yelled Frank
wrathfully. and. picking op a small
chair, he tossed It through the window
I straight at the unsuspecting feline.
| When the chair atrtick the path
| vrlth a thud Blossnms bad vanlahed?
simply melted from view. Bot the
I chair was there, by some magic of cir
cumstance standing on Its four legs In
| the middle of the f?th.
Frank went back to bed and to sleep
drenmlessly till morning.
"Oh. Frank, the queerest thing ha*
happened!" flutteml l,lnda wben be
appt?ared nt the breakfast table.
"What Is H?" he asked curiously.
"Why. when I looked out of my win
dow at 7 o'clock this morning what
should I see but Blessums sitting on
one of our bedroom chairs In the mid
dle of the path: lie looked too cute
for anything. Frank, but how do you
suppose the chair ever got ont there?"
l.lnda'* blue eyed were Innocently
wide.
"Blanked If I know." lied Frank
crossly.
?Why. Frank HlSdreth! I think It's
perfectly an fill for you to sw-swear at
me-e like tba-t:" cried l.lnda, suddenly
tearfully indignant.
It required a half hour to properly
apoloclr.e to his wtft, and In the end he
felt like a criminal. "1 told yon. my
dear, that nothing short of sudden
death would ever .ormlnate hla sere
nades." he said tnondlly.
"I don't care how or when he dies
If I don't have to hear any of the de
tails." said Linda dejectedly. "It doe*
seem as though Blessnma was deter
mined to come back here and disturb
your peace "
"Ferhaps I can think of some retne
dy during the day." said Frank, and
once more be set forth on his morning
sprint for the StfR train.
The result of a whole day's cogita
tion on the part of Mr. Hlldreth was
that he brought home that night a
lnrge?pnper bag filled with soot? black
chimney soot secured from some un
known place by hifi office boy
He smuggled the hag up Into hla
own room and hid It under hit bed
He did not wish to shock his wife's
tender sensibilities with the details of
the horrible way In which he waa to
end the nightly seMnndes of Bleaannns,
the tortoise shell cat How could he
tell l.lnda that it waa his Intention to
listen for the first signal from the ma
rauder and then, ctreeping softly to the
window, which he would leave wide
open, he would decoy the unsuspecting
Blessums up the rose trellis, and
when the cat waa almost up to the
window he would empty the bag of
black, smothering, choking soot full
tnto his face, llesnit? a hnrrled and per
manent exit on tbi part of Blessums
and posalbiy the eitermlnatlon of his
whole nine lives at once.
"That's one way to get rw or a cai.
ho thought Kleefully as he went to bed.
Frank left the window wide open.
He opened the hat: of soot and placed
It In a convenient place. He went to
bed determined to remain awake nntll
Blessuros turned sip.
He went to sleep at once and ilept
soundly until he wns awakened by the
sijmal voice of Blensums.
"Me-e-e-e-row!"
"Aha!" grunted Frank sleepily and
slipped nut of bed.
Ue reached for the bag of soot and
tiptoed to the window. He leaned out
?noiselessly, the bag poised for busi
ness. He looked down at the rose
trellis and for an Instant was para
lysed with snrpris*!.
A dnrk. bnlky huti in form was
stealthily creeping up to the tempting- j
ly open window. Frank hud a brief
vision of the form of Blessama sitting
as of yore In the twiddle of the garden
path.
Immediate action was necessary, for
the approaching burglar turned a mask
od face upward? and received the full
contents of the soot bag In nose and
eyes and mouth.
There followed It choking growl and
a floundering, craulilng descent to the
ground. Frank leaned from the win
dow and saw the burglar leap the
fence and dash across an open lot ISto
black shadow. H? saw the frightened
Blessums perched nervously on the
gate
"Here. Blessums! Here kitty, kitty, ?
kitty!" coaxed Frank gently.
Just as Blessuras leaped from the
tottering mee trellis Into his arma Lin
da's white robed form appeared be
side him.
"Oh. Frank, what has happened?"
she whispered anikuialy. "1 thought I
heard footsteps outaide."
He told her briefly and advised her
to cherish the astonished Blesantna.
whoae voice had awakened him In time
to rout the burglar and thus save their
valuables and perhaps their Uvea.
"He can't go Iwck to Mrs. Bliss," de
clared Frank firmly. "I'll buy her a
at If necessary, but Blessuma shall
sleep in my room every night so that
aenenades will be out of the question.
Perhaps he's hungry. Linda 1 wonder
if there's any of that chicken left I
don't believe Nora gives him enoogh to
eat anyway.*"
"Frank nildreth." cried bis wife hys
terically. "I've hoard of all aorta of
waya of trying to kill a cat. but I be
lieve you're trying to kill him with
ktndnesa now."
