RAYS BANK.

1t was under a plank of the great
barn floor, place just large enough to
hold the three bushels Of hazel-uuts
which Ray had picked and carefully
boarded there, and this was the
bank
IF folks save only little every year,
they'll have money to spend when they
are old, papa says. So iii jus, not eat
all my nuts right up, and keep some
for mex. winter" said Ray, sagely.
So he and the squirrels worked
together through the bright autumn
weather. He was as busy as they, and
boarded his winter store as carefully,
so sthat. when the crimson aud gold
leaves turned to brown, his bank was
full
Every day be went to peep into it,
until he went with mamma TO visit at
grandpa's. They stayed two weeks;
aud what long time 1t Was 10 the lit
tie boy with bank TO look after,
Graudpas nice, sweet apples and
srandma's brown. twisted doughnuts
didn't taste half as good as they gen.
orally did.
Grandpa aud grandma and all the
uncles and aunts worried and wonder
ed, aud said he surely wos sick ; but
then they didu't know about the loose
plank in the great barn floor, and the
store Of wealth under it, and what
care it was
1t was the first thing Ray thought Of
when he got home. YOU may be sure.
And this is what he fourd there. Nv
empty husks'
AS If some one had filled his bank
vita counterfeit money while he was
away.
HIS bank had failed,
"A family Of chipmonks have been
very busy here for week" said papa
II shouldn't wonder if they were the
thieves. and think that their bank is
under that old pinetree that I'm going
to cut to-day"
Aud there it was nder the great,
twisted roots he found another bank,
filled to the brim with the wealth of his.
So he was more successful than some
bank officers; but he said gravely, a.
he stored his uut- away IN safer
place -
Ate. all, papa, don't b'Iieve
banks are a sure. solid thing, do you:
Some men are as bad as chipmonk-,
Won know | b'iIcNe IN, hest MAY ~
TO try and JOY things as YOU 90 along.
and make folk, happy as YOU CAP,
stead of putting lots Of money in the
bank to lose Or be quarrelled over

ramon.

THE HONEST OLD TOAD.

o, queer little chap is the honest old toad,
A funny old fellow is he;
Living under the stone BY the side of the
road,
Meath the shade of the old willow tree.
He is dressed all in brown from his toes to
his crown,
Save his vest that is siivery white.
He takes long nap in the heat of the day,
And walks in the cool, dewy night.
"Raup, youp"' says the frog,
From his home in The bog,
But the toad he SAYS never word;
He tries to be good, like the children who
should
Be seen, but never be heard.
When winter draws near, Mr.. Toad goes
to bed,
And he sleeps as sound as a top,
But when NAV blossoms follow soft April
showers,
He comes out with skip, jump and hop
He changes his dress only once, confess
Every spring, and his old WORKOUT coat,
With trousers and waistcoat he rolls in a
ball
And stufs the whole thing down his
throat,
"k-rruk k-rruk," SAYS the frog
From his home in the bog,
But the toad he says never a word;
He tries to be good, like the children who
should
Be seen, but never be heard.
