PUSSY AND THE
CHRISTMAS TURKEY
ROM the moment
the kitten knew
anything he was
aware he was a
beauty. Ills
father and moth-
er were lovely,
long Haired An -
gores.
Although so
good looking, he
was a very spoil-
ed and ill man-
nered kitten. His
mother had fool-
ishly said in his
hearing that
with his looks
he could do as he liked.
Cue day, whet# the kitten was about
three months old, a telegram Came to
the house where he lived. It said,
"Send little Angora to Miss Nellie Dale,
— Fifth avenue, New York."
The butler camee in with a box, put
the unsuspecting kitten in and nailed
down the lid.
What followed is too confusing to
tell. There was much rattling over
rough streets, Hauch jolting over
tracks, much shrieking of engines,
much burapfng against boxes, At last
it was over. The box was carried into
a warm, softly lighted room. A child's
voice was heard exclaiming; "For met
Why, I wonder what it can be." A
tiny, mew soon told, her, and in a few
minutes the kitten was out of its
prison and tightly snuggled in the.
arms of a little girl. A saucer of milk
was soon lapped up, and pussy's life
in his new home began. .
Nellie named her new pet Blizzard
because be was white and soft like
drifted snow,
Blizzard thought this name all right,
but did not for an instant mean to an.
d SMOTHERED MEW SOUNDED PROM THE
INSIDIr,
suer to it. IIs had never learned to
mind or do anything else but be a
trouble. Ile stole everything he could
get. Etc: bt•oke an expensive vase be-
cause he would play tag with himself
on the parlor mantel. He climbed up
the handsome new curtains at the hail
wiedows with the result that they soon
lal
ked like streamers. He cried all the
=bre people were eating, wanting meat
aid other things not good for kittens.
'Twas the night before Christmas,
and the servants were busy preparing
for the big dinner tomorrow.
Ml the relatives were invited, and
Dinah, the cook, knew that the only
way to bare her dinner on time was to
get things ready for it the day before.
She had just got the big turkey out
and picked it clean of pinfeathers.
She put it in the pantry white she grat-
ed bread with which to stuff it.
Company came in, and Dinah did not
get her turkey tilled as she had hoped.
She went to bed, setting her alarm for
5 o'clock. expecting to stuff the turkey
before breakfast. When bedtime came
no Blizzard] was to be found.
The household was awakened at 5 to
the morning by n scream from Dinah,
which brought the fatally to the kitch-
en alt armed and expecting to .see n
burglar. They found Dinah in a faint
on the floor of the pantry, and beside
her was the big turkey. On looking
closet and hearing Dinah faintly whis-
per, "The cat," ail eyes turned to look
for the rat. No one could locate him
until a smothered mew sounded from
the inside of the turkey. Nellie peek-
ed In and saw ftizznrd'e head sticking
out where the stuffing is usually poked
In. He was hauled out. His white
coat was sticky and dirty, and his
stomach stuck•out like it wolf's In the
Dalry tale after he had dined oft' the
ten little pits.
Dinath locked Blizzard In the iatin-
clt•y until he sbotitd thoroughly repent
Another turkey had to be prepared,
and rillzenrd was torgetten until the
tiny after Christmas, %Vhen Nellie
went to take him out 'of hie prison DI•
flash went with her.
"Win you ever do such n netighty
thing ngnin, Blizzard's' elle netted him.

this Christmas is the pleasure of owning an
Edison Phonograph
This year the Edison Phonograph is a finer musical
instrument than it has ever been before, because it
plays the wonderful Blue Amberol Records that Mr.
Edison has just perfected.
Every Blue Amberol Record is made by an artist
whose singing or playing can be perfectly recorded.
Every Blue Amberol must pass a critical examination
before it is offered to you. Each one is wear _proof and
practically unbreakable—and the tone is finer and truer
than ever. See your Edison dealer about it today.
