The people next door lost their bulldog this morning. They searched high and low for the dog and finally notified the police. The dog pound was visited, but witnout success. My poor friend cried as if she had lost a child. She just “knew he had been killed.” ° * * It had rained all day, but this evening the weather cleared and the children came out. Just before 8 o'clock I heard a great noise of bells and horns and, looking out, saw that a “circus parade” was passing. There were many mysterious closed wagons, as usual (you might have taken them for soap boxes and suca), but there were one or two “open” wagons, and in the first (a strawberry crate) I recognized the Lost Dog. The lid was down and poor Demps was bent almost double, Investigation, not yet contluded, indicates that the “fero- cious wild beast” had been held captive all day waiting for the grand parade—Mrs. R. F. Watkins, No. 79 Washington Avenue. [Please send full address quickly to Editorial Auditor, Evening World.

Helen A. Sinnott, No, 90 Edgecombe Avenue, ‘MISS WHITTAKER’S PLACE. NINTH The cosy abode of an artist, Miss Lilltan Whittaker of No. 741 East 11th Street, proved to me how one young woman made shift to solve the high cost of renting in New York. To reach her studio 1 had to climb four flights of tenement stalre, but when I ar- rived in the studio I was recompensed. Color, color everywhere, and not a dash that Jarred. Walls, furniture, floors, all hand-painted, the latter in quaint mosaic pattern: created a beautiful effect. “I wanted to live in New York,” Miss Whittaker confessed, “but the rents were prohibitive, until b found these four rooms, rent $20, It ‘didn’t look very promising, but 1 got busy and now I wouldn't live any plact else. And just think! I spent less than $100 to furnish and decorate. my studio apart. ment. But of courso I made some of the furniture and painted the Interior myself.’ All of which goes to show that ugliness flees before paint arttati- eally appiied.—Mrs. Harrlet P. Hunt, Hotel Rutledge, Lexington Avenue and 30th Street.

When I heard the telephone ring, I said to my- self, “Well, now the jig 1S up!” I took a sly look toward the booth and saw a hand reach up and remove the receiver.
