and was covered from head to heels
with Jumps and knobs and knots.
What cheer?" gayly cried the wood
man as he drew nearer.
Bees" moaned the bear.
But nature gave you Il coa of fur
to protect you from the stings of bees"
$50 she did answered the bear, but
she also made me fool enough to wan
honey just the same when l was shed
ding my coat. and every sting would
lift me a foot high"
Moral.-NOne of US is ever satisfied
with half 4 loaf.
One day after the hounds had given
the hares 4 long chase and destroyed
many of them an old hare Sneaked out
of her burrow and called Il public
me2ting to protest against further af-
fairs of the sort.
LAS hareS We have ~inalienable rights
tat the hounds are bound to respect"
she asserted.

hQres together.
Then let US proceed TO chase and as

They proceeded, and they asserted,
and as the leader Of the hounds looked
around after the slaughter he quietly
observed:
1T is the same in the end whether
the hounds 60 to the hares or the hares
come to the hounds"
Moral.-When the taxpayer becomes
a reformer, he only changes ends with
the stick.
After thinking things over one day
! and coming to the conclusion that the
world was all wrong the eagle set out
| and found the buZzard and said to
him:

hurt var feelings, I am sorry for it."
you have made my heart ache now
and then" replied the buzzard, but
I'm not a bird to bear n grudge. Your
apologies make it all right"
while ] am called an eagle and you
Il buzzard, there is but little difference
between US"
"No; you simply fly a little higher
than I do"
That's about all. We are both
birds, you know"
"Of course"
"And, both being birds, why should
we hold aloofi"
"We shouldn't. This is a very nict

the eagle as he seized the buzzard and
flung him ont OF the nest. While it

MoraL-"I won't say that all men
are not born free and equal" observed
the owl, who had heard the whole
affair. but / do contend that the way
a fellow is brought up may have a
heap to do with it"
One day the hare Inc the giraffe met
on n of the paths in the forest, and
they had scarcely saluted each other
when the hare complainingly observed:
Il just saw the fox taking his morn
ing walk, and such a tail as he carried
behind him. Dear me, but how un-
kind nature was to the hares! II /
had a brush like Reynard's. I should
be one of the happiest animals in the
world"
And get on to the nan over there"
replied the giraffe. when he has
walked until his legs are weary. he can
sit on a log and look even more grace
full than when on his feet. If l should
attempt to sit down and cross my legs
and smoke q ten cent cigar, every liv-
ing thing in this forest would get up
and howl in ridicule."
Yes, things are wrong" ~mournfully
observed the hare, land / move that
we call Il public meeting and see
WHAT
AT that instant there was n great
commotion at Il point not far off, and
it was soon learned that the fox had
caught his tail in a trap as he proceed
ed OIL his way. The giraffe was just
about to remark hat the hare would
not have been caught in that trap
when a man who had just sat down
for a rest and a smoke sprang up
with a:
"Whoop! BY the great horn spoon,
but 1 must have sat down on at least
half n bushel of 'em, and by tomor-
row l won't be able to get out of bed"
Moral.-'If you had been provided
with a long, bushy tail like the fox's,"
remarked the giraffe, you would now
be in the hands Of the hunter"
"And if it had been possible for you
to sit down on Il log" replied the
hare, you would now be busting for
the nearest drugstore for n remedy for
hornet stings. That chap hit about
fifteen Of 'em in a bunch, and all Of
'em got mad at him at the same time"
