PUSSY WLW ISHERE SHE CME "BY PARGEL POS Asks That Mother Be Told She Has Safely Arrived . in This Wicked City. SHE'S GRATEFUL TO TOM Not Tom Cat, but Tom Ryan, . Who Heard a Hunger Cry and Saved Her Life. Up in Cairo, N. ¥., there's a big, Black old tabby cat with a slick, glossy Coat, long whiskers and great greon eyes full of worldly feline wisdom who would be mighty glad if some kind person could and would trans- late these lines into cat language for her. It would tako a world of worry off her mind and a big load off her heart and make the next mouse she eatches twice as enjoyable as it other- wise will be. Just imagine how you would feel if one of your favorite kittens—provid- ing, of course, YOU were a cat—had been sent travelling a long, long way by parcel post to a wicked, wicked city from @ quiet little country town, and you didn’t know whether she had arrived safely or not! I guess you'd worry a bit, too, eh? Well, that's what's bothering that big old Cairo tabby cat. But now she may put her mind at Teast. The Evening World is in a post- tion to assure her that her favorite child, Pussy Willow, has arrived safe- dy at the home of Mrs. P. C. Bainley, No. 827 East Twenty-first Street, Flat- bush, and that she not only met with no mishaps en route, but even en- i | 1 joyed some phases of her journey. Of course, were somewhat cramped in the little wooden crate that was her Pullman car, but then | one can’t expect everything when one | is travelling, can one? | Miss Pussy Willow, having care- fully removed frum her glossy coat! the dust of travel, consented t quarters at her new mistress's home, an Evening World reporter of her journey, the first a cat ever made by parcel post. . WHEN THE HUMAN TOM CAME TO THE RESCUE. “Dll tell you all about it on one condition,” meouwed Miss Pussy Wil- to low. “That is that you be sur mention my good friend, Thor No, of course not! a cat, even 8 a clerk been for him ave jolly near starved to death on the trip.

Of course, I don't like t criticise—but the fact is, I haven’ yet quite caught up on my meal Miss Willow paused for a moment to lap up 4 bit more of the milk from @ saucer before her. “Will you have some?” she purred politely. “No? Well, you haven't travelled a long way by parcel post like I have, so I don't suppose you ARE quite as hungry as I. This is great milk they have here in Brook- lyn—but at that, it can’t beat what I get back in Cairo. “But let's get back to Thomas. I'd been up for hours in that crate you gee over there, and, believe mo, my littlétummy had struck dinner time a long time be- fore. But nary a porter showed up to tell me milk was served in the dining car jn the rear. I tried to be a lady, like my mamma told me to before I left—but it’s darned hard to be @ lady on an empty stomach, ain’t it? So at last, by the time I got to the Post Office here, I quit trying. I just let out a yell. For a long time nobody paid any attention, But at last Thomas Ryan heard me. And what do you suppose Thomas did? Fe went and got me a big saucer of milk and gave me the best dinner [ ever had— bless his old heart! So that's das 4 I want you to give Thomas a big boost.” Miss Willow paused long enough to finish her saucer of milk, Then she curled herself on a warm rug and) blinked lazily at her Interviewer. WELL MANNERED PUSSY TELLS OF HER GREAT TRIP. “T really must ask you to excuse me now,” she purred. “You understand, the fatigue of travel. Oh, yes! uu want to know how I came to make the trip? Of course! How stupid of me not to tell you. You) see, my mamma has a rather large family. There's me—though of course I know It Isn't polite to mention one's self first—and Chitz and Nigger and Roly Poly and Baby and Tab and two! or three others whose names I never could remember—and our mistress just declared I had so many brothers and sisters she didn't know what to do with us all, So she wrote to Mrs Bainley here and asked if she didn’t want me, And that's how I happened to come all alone. “What's that? You wonder that I'm fo refined and cultured when I come from a country town? Well, let me tell you this, Mr. Reporter, I may be a country cat and not up on city ways and styles, but my mamma's taught me good manners and warned me against tho wiles of these wicked city cats. And you won't catch me play- ing around in back alleys and mixing with the hol pollol, So far as I know, I'm the only cat that ever went travel- ing by parcel post—and that entitles me to some distinction, don’t you think? I'm going to be real exclusive from now on.

HIGHER RENTS FOLLOW TAX! ON LAND ALONE. Regaziing rents, the Real Board says: “It has been the custom among own- ers to carry no fund for depreciation of buildings as the expected increase in land value has been relied on to cover this cost. Therefore, 1t may be presumed that rents have been lower by just so much as would have bee sufficient to create such a fund. “If the tax on buildings were trans- ferred to land, it would diminish land values, and to cover this and the de- Preciaton of their buildings owners would have ‘» add so much more to rent in order to obtain au adequa’ return on their capital, “A higher tax rate on improved property, whether on the land or the entire holding, must result in higher rents. “If taxes become so high that the return on the capital invested is be low the rate yielded by other forms of investment, capital would not Ko into rentable properties and building dec! until rents t would re store the income y. d upon build- ings to that of other forms of in- | vested capital, “Lower rents ing Estate due to an ine in building could result only fr very large nerease in such opera- tions, and the main effect would fall] upon the older and poorer buildings. | “Rents are regulated very little by when compared with t vastly greater influence of the Jaw) of supply and demand as applied in| conjunction with the prevailing "| terest rate on capital.” HIGH TAX ON LAND TENDS TO DISCOURAGE BUILDERS.
