YOUNG FOLKS NUMBER.
THERE'S A BOY IN THE HOUSE.

"a gun in the parlOr. a kite in the hall,
In the kitchen book, and bat and ball;
On the sideboard ship, on the bookcase a flute,
pute;
And out on the porch, gallantly prancing no.
where,
A spirited hobby horse paws at the air;
And well-polished pie-plate out there on the
shelf,
Near tall ielly-jar which mischievous elf
Emptied as slyly and slick as mouse,
Make it easy to see There's a Boy in the House
A racket. rattle, a rollickng shout,
Above and below and around and about;
A whistling, a pounding, hammering of nails,
The building of houses, the shaping of sails;
Entreates for paper, for scissors, for string,
For every unfindable, bothersome thing;
A bang of the door and a dash up the stairs,
In the interest of burdensome business affairs;
And an elephant hunt for bit of a mouse.
Make it easy to hear There's Boy in the House.
But oh, if the toys were not scattered about,
And the house never echoed to racket and rout;
If forever the rooms were all tidy and neat
And one need not wipe after muddy feet
If no one laughed out when the morning was red,
And with kisses went tumbling all tired to bed;
What a wearisome, work-a-day world, don't you
see
For all who love wild little laddies twould be;
And I'm happy to think-thOugh / shrink like a
mouse
From disorder and din-There's Boy in the
House?'

The Cat That Went to Sea.

Betty Coe was a very good cat. She
did not steal, and she did not scratch.
She did not purr too loud, or NEW too
much; but after all, Betty was very much
in the way. She was one cat too many.
She was cat number three in the Coe FAM
lily, and one day Mrs. Coe remarked that
"something must be done with Betty"
Now, Mrs. Coe did not say that the cat
must be killed, but little Abby Coe knew
by the tone of her mothers voice that the
death of Betty was in her mind, and all
day long she was trying to think ola way
to save the good pussy.
When Will Coe was going to bed that
night, Abby went and told him her trou-
BILE, and Will said: Don't you mind one
bit more about it, | will find place for
Betty. I'll do it tomorrow"
Abby knew her brother Will always did
just as he said he would do, so she laid
her little head down and went to sleep.
The next morning Will got up very
early, took Betty in his arms, and walked
out before any one of the family were
awake.
He went on and on very long way,
until he came to the dock, where thegreat
ships lay. He walked down pier that
was built out into the big river. 1t was
SO early that he did not see many men
astir on the ships, but at last he met
sailor man, and the man said to Will
Coe: "Going to drown that cat?''
'No," said Will, Il am looking for a
new home for Betty. We have too many
cats. Mother can't have three. She is
real nice. Don't you want her? She won't
scratch you'll"
Now, this sailor had a good, kind face
that showed right through all the tan on
it. and he stroked Betty, and said, owe
are going to sail, this morning, and we
have no cat on board. I'll take her.
Come, Bettyp
BETTY clung to Wills waistcoat with all
her claws.
"You'll be right good to her, won't

hurt her?"

stOpped-and the small boat rOWed up
beside her, so that the men could climb
up into the steamship, which they did,
Mars buttoned inside his big top-coat,
and in minute more, for the first time
in her life, this cat was on an ocean steam
ship.
Just one week after that time the Coe
family were eating their breakfast in Liv-
erpool when Abby, who always read the s
shipping news after Kitty Coe left port,
gave little scream, and cried out: "Just
listen, Will and all of youP' and Abby
read: "The Mars, bound from Liverpool
to India, sprang a leak and sank in
storm in mid-ocean. Her captain and
crew escaped in the ships boats. Not a
soul was lost, even the pet cat of one of
the sailors being saved.
"The Victoria brought the entire crew
into port to-day
'She is here now, then. Betty Coe is in
Liverpool!' cried Abby. ooh, howl wish
could see her!"
The same day Will Coe went down to
the place where the great black Victoria
lay, and, nobody forbiding, hecrOssed the
gang-plank, and the first man he emet was
Ben Doone
GLOW do you do, sir?" spoke up Will;
and how is Betty Coe? Can l see her?''
"Oh, no! Glad to see you," said the
sailor. "Betty Coo lars is all right.
Just locked her use, you see, she
follows like dog 40 would get lost"
''We saw the news about the Mars, and
my sister wants to see thecat. Thought
may be you"
"Course will. I'll fetch her, and you
can take her home and keep her, if you
want to, till ship again. Wouldn't lose
the cat, though, for fortune"
That night, Betty Coe Mars was at home
again, and in the arms of everybody in
the house. Nothing now was too good
for her. She was not in the way at all,
for she was only a visiting cat.
At the end of week, her master, true
to his word, called for Betty and carried
her off to another ship, and by this time,
Betty may be peeping out at Chinese cats
from some little window in big ship at
some port in China but of one thing you
may be certain, and that is, that when
ever the sailor and the cat return to Liv-
erpool. Betty will revisit her old home
Sarah ]. Pritchard, in Tribune.
DEAR BoYs AND GIRLs.-How do you
like this cat story? / venture to say that
each of you have cat which would be
quite as famous as Betty Coe Mars ifthey
only had the opportunity. Opportunity
is big word. 1t has made great men
and famous omen many a time out of
small beginnings, when wisely improved.
But don't you think Ben Doone, like all
sailors, and good many other people,
was little superstitious about cats?
He was careful that the cat should meet
with no harm for fear bad luck void come
to the ship. Well, bad luck did come to
the ship, but he couldn't lay it to his
treatment of Betty anyway.
Do you know where cats were first do
mesticated? Look in your biographies
and find Egypt. 1t is wonderful coun-
try in MANY Wavs. but it is lust Over-run

sell. Ono might spring from ME, ana we
will shut her up till we sail. or she will
jump ashore"
Will carried Betty on the big ship,
patted her, told her to be goodcat, and
some time, when the ship came in again,
lie would come and see her.
Betty clung to Will. He had always
been good to her, and she did not wish to
be left; but Will put her down, shut the
door quickly, and the last he heard was
one lonely NEW!
"Poor Betty!" said Will.
"I'll take good care of Betty. Don't
you fear. She'll like the ship, and be
every ybody's pet," said the sailor. They
were the very last words he said, as Will
stepped off the pier, and hurried home to
his breakfast
"Where is Betty this morning?" asked
Abby, as soon as Will got home.
GIVE found a tip-top home for her,"
said Will. "Betty is going on a voyage,
in the Mars, around the world"
"The Mars?" cried Bobby. ''Oh how
nice! ] shall watch all the news of the
ships every day, to find out where the
Mars goes, and what becomes of her."
The Mars sailed Then the door was
oDened, and Betty was given freedom OF
the ship. 1t was long time, two or
three days. before the cat went all over
the big ship, but, as every sailor on
board, captain and all, said, Hello,
Kitty" and seemed glad to have her
there, she soon became very happy cat;
but it was to her own sailor man, whose
name was Ben DOOne, that Betty gave
heed. She would follow him up and down
the decks, and even up the mast, when
he went to put out or take in big sail.
At the end of six months, Betty Mars
for Ben Doone had changed her name
to match the ships name-was one OF
the happiest cats alive. Not foot on
board was ever raised to kick her. and
not voice ever said one single "s-c-a-tp
to make her heart ache.
One day, there came great storm. 1T
was full of wind, and water, and thunder,
and lightning. Betty Mars was shut up.
/ forgot to tell you that in storms and
rough seas, Ben Doone always shut the
cat up, so that she would not get blown
off the decks, or washed overheard. He
never forgot her, never! But now, in
this storm, he mad not been nigh her in a
whole day, nor had he brought her any
thing to eat. Betty Mars felt bad. She
was hungry, and she was thirsty; so she
began to cry, but, dear me, what could
one poor cats voice do to make itself
heard in the midst of all the roar going
on?
Betty Mars had cried herself hoarse.
She could not get a place to keep still in,
try as she would; for, if she did not move,
the place would, and she was just wishing,
for almost the first time, that she could
be Betty Coeagain, when the door opened.
Ben Doone pitched in, called, 'Betty,
Betty" caught her in his arms, seized
great coat, hugged that too, and sprang
out, got up the ladder to the deck as best
he could, for the ship was going up and
down, and down and up with every wave
that came. How Ben Doone ever got
across that deck with his load, Betty
Mars never found out. for she was hupped

ne let our the struggling, hOWllng cats,
scattering them everywhere. Fearing in
their superstition to harm the cats, the
Egyptians became demoraIized, SO that
Cambyses who had no scruples whatever
about killing CATS" gained a complete
victory. 1t is strange to say, that ever
since that time Egypt has been under
foreign power. There has not been an
Egyptian ruler, and BESIDES that humiIa-
ting fact, England, l believe, holds a
mortgage on that old, oldcountry. Poor
Egypt! Now do you say that cats had
anything to do with all that misfortune?
Rather believe that the words of the Lord
through that wonderful old prophet,
Ezekiel, in his Both chapter, have become
literally true. By the way do you know
that cats are never once spoken of in the
Bible, but dogs are mentioned some thir-
ty different times. | perhaps will give the
preference to dogs after this.
While living in the North, well lremem-
Der that scarcely farm-yard but had
bit OF catnip growing near by. I have
never seen it in Florida Our grand
mothers always gathered bunch to dry
and hang in the old garret to make cat
nip tea for the babies and us little folks.
| smell it now! Uhh! Cats, they argued,
were very fond of it, but then we didn't
see why we should be. 1t is said that cats
dearly love the oder of valerian. That is
more sensible.
Cats are said to have "nine lives" We
wish most heartily they hadn't so many

Killed by His Victim.

Those of us who have seen a toad
take in" a bumblebee or a wasp can
testify that predatory creatures some
times make mistakes in Judgment when
they choose their victims. A southern
exchange gives us another lively and
more tragic illustration of the same fact.
a fishing party came to Mount Yer
non, Va, from the capital recently, and
after viewing the Washington estate and
securing a fragment of the famous
cherry tree, a part of which is still on
sale, went several miles down the river
to fish. Toward evening, when the pis-
catorial sport was about to be aban-
doned and camp struck for the night, an
eagle was noticed approaching, bearing
in its talons a burden that apparently
worried it.
When over the fishermen the birds
flight weakened, and drop of blood was
noticed se fall on the canvas. A moment
later the eagle began sspidH descending,
and soon fell 10 the ground.
fastening to the spot, the men found
the bird dying, yet Grsaly grasping In its
powerful talons large sized ferret as its
prey. The animal was fighting frantic
ally for freedom, and had killed it's cap
tor in the battle. The eagle had evident
ly stolen march upon its cunning vic
tim, but greatly mistook its game.
The ferret was held in such manner
as to infiiot upon it no vital injury. It's
head being entirely at liberty. it had
lacerated its captor in terrible manner,
and at length killed it. The eagle was
monster, measuring four and one-half
feet from tip to tip. The ferret was
killed by the fishermen, and the pair will
be mounted in their warlike attltude.-
