Katherine's Adventure.

''What does 1 o'clock at night look hkeM asked
Katherine, sleepily. katherine asked questions
without number in the day time and she quite of
ten wound up the day by asking a few more. But
before she had time to hear the answer to this
question, she went off to sleep. She woke up just
as the long clock in the hall struck / on It's deep
toned bell

up in bed, but for once her mother was sleeping
too soundS to hear, so Katherine remembered her
question and thought, "I'fl go down stairs and find
out what 1 o'clock looks like, and get drink too"
The moon looked through the hall window at her
and lighted the way; she found the way to the
dining room easily enough. But standing on her
tip toes to to reach the pitcher on the sideboard
something happened. black cloud that had been
coming along over the sky, suddenly swallowed the
moon at one mouthful, and left the room in total
darkness. This made Katherine jump, so she
pulled the pitcher off, and drenched herself with
water ."Ughw she said gasping All at once the
rain began to patter sharply on the windows, as
Katherine cropping her way back through the
hall, and a carriage drove up in front of the
house. The carriage lamps were lighted so she
stopped to press her button of against the
hall window to see who was coming to the house so
late. Its Uncle Tom," she said as a man in
evening dress quickly across the pavement and
up the steps. Hes been to party. Then, as he
began a vain search through his pockets for his
latch key, she ran to open the door. Fortunately
the night latch was easily managed, and Uncle Tom
was much surprised when the door was opened by
a little wet white robed girl
"Why Pussy" he cried. what are YOU doing
down stair at this time of the night? And you are
wet as though you had been out in the rain" he
added, picking her up in his arms.
katherine curled down contentedly
