boys was nearly the worst cubs that eve
was. They was 80 bad that the old folks
could not bear them, and they often had p
20 without bite to eat. The lickin's they
got didn't count, for they conldn't b
counted, and no account was taken OF them.
Now the old he and she bears vas pious
and decent sitizens. Sunday they kept b
themselves after the. sfrictest fashion and
/ wouldn't cook any nor allow uhistlI1, a.
a-ridin' on bysickels. Likewise the boys
dassant 60 in a-swimmin on Sunday. Al
they had TO eat on Sundays was a. good and
/ plenty as on week days, but It vas cold and
tough. The boys for this reason didn't par
ticularly like when Sunday come. This
! WAS wrong, or all good bows and girls like
even what is sad II it's good like Sundays
are where there Is nothing but cold aud
tough things to eat.

boy bears, didn't like Sunday, for Il made
them sad and they had the headache. %
they made q bargain that they would lit
some thun 10 eat better nor cold potatas II Il

was ioolin' round great bic oak tree thst

be 50 holler, and as straighr as plum lins.
1t made the bears heads swim 10 look up %
straight at thatshur hole, but they took
| turn about in lookin' 90 that only one head
swum at time and one bear head didn't
swim.
Brother Hec," said Broom, don't you
think that you see bees a-ayin' In and cut
OF that thur hole2"
"You bet I do, Brother Broom. and I
smell honey, too" Hector said back y
Broom.
| Directly they saw some more bees a-dyfn,,
and a-hyin', thick as bees, in thafshur kols
It was honey that they wanted 50 bad, but
the bees they didn't want But they didn't
want to climb thaishnr tire, but they
couldn't git il any other RaY. So they
quarreled about who should climb. They
near had fight
