t was the one wish of Henry
P.oyd, 76. who lives alone in a tiny
! cabin on Crater Lake avenue, to
. own a wooly cat. He expressed the
iwish to Mrs. Lyda King, county
, nurse who gooH to see him fre
quently, and who led a city wide
; search for Wrinkles last mo'nih,
i when that little tramp dog turned
' up missing from the Doyd domi
; tile.
j With Wrinkles home again, nnd
. Itosy (the horse) safely tied in the
; pasture, Mr. Jloyd felt free to en-
large the family circle. It was BOrt
i of like taking out insurance against
another loss such as he felt with
' the disappearance of his only house
! pot,
I "Now, If I only find a wooly cat,
j I'd be happy." he said, caressing
i tho prodigal Wrinkles, the night
of her return.
j "What kind of n wooly cat a
Persian?" asked Mrs. King.
"Oh 1 don't know as I could
: describe the kind 1 have In my
! mind.. It wouldn't have to be any
j of these high fainting breeds you
1 see In the swell homes Just a cosy,
little wooly cat that would sit in
; front of the fire nnd look friendly
; like when I came home. Dut I
'suppose that kind would be hard
: to find," said lloyd.
It was rather hard to find, hut
, for a month Mrs. King kept look
ing, nnd Inquiring every place she
! went throughout the county. Ai
last one day, a friend called up the
county health office. Mrs. King
hung up the receiver with a de
cisive sniin, lumped "In'n her enr
tand drove out to the homtk of her
friend and there, she found the ob
J Ject of her search. Hmall, und

: with the most beautiful blue eyes

! Wrinkles acted a bit jealous the
firsvduy, when Pedro sat purring
' la wnt of the fire In the liny
1 abode on Crater Utke avenue. Dut
even Wrinkles couldn't help admit
ting that it made a difference in
the quiet little home. And after
' all, wooly cats arc sweet.
