THE LATEST IN SOCIETY.


We had a great deal of trouble about that water wagon. She sprung a leak. This is how it happened: All the Notables – Shorty, King George, Kitchener and the rest of them – were all out for a ride, and Mush Fakir was driving, with the Gay-Cat as helper. Well, they ran into the dog catcher’s automobile and spilled things. Mush and Gay were pitched out head foremost into a bunch of dogs and there was an awful howl. But King George was sitting on Kitchener’s lap, so he was safe. So was Shorty, who was pinned down under a fat suffragette. That saved him. Poor Mush and Gay were taken to the pound and have not reported since. Only the dogs got wet.
