But the dog barked louder and louder papa dressed

But Fuz took notice, and presently the doctor
said What can she be looking ats There cannot be

down to look up the chimney, too
That just what Fuz wanted. She sprang into the
armchair at and cured up costly possible.
'Well, I never anything like that before!n ex-

How they laughed; and Fuz purred and smiled to

DIFFERENT OPINIONS.

One rainy day butterfly
Looked up in sorrow at the sky;
With folded wings she sighed in vain: -
II long to see the again!
My pretty wings I fain would spread,
But must shelter here instead n
Until the rain has passed away!
OH ism It it hateful day?'
81 Not so, not sol Indeed for me, ...s
A better day there couldn't be!''
And little froggy hoped about
Thru all the puddles in and out,
And pulled, and splashed, and croaked again:
ooh! how do enjoy the rain!
Nay, madam, hateful did you says
= I call it delightful day!"

AUNT BERTHA AND THE sTARLMGs.

Aunt Bertha heard kind Of scratching sound under
the floor of her bedroom.
'Hulloa!'' she exclaimed, esthere is impertnent
little that intends to keep awake by his scratch
ing; this sort of thing cannot be permitted. =
So she put stout pair of gloves and very softly
lifted up the board where she heard the noise
Now, what do you think she there under the
boards SssszsssaszH e
Not mousse but nest with five baby star1ings in
it, she very gently put back the board without dis
turbing them.
Then she went into the garden to find out how the
father and mother birds could have got in build the
nest. She saw that when the builder had fixed up a
scafoldng pole for repairs he had taken a brick out
Of the WALL and had forgotten put it back The sharp
eyes Of the starngs discovered the hole and they
at decided that just the place for nest.
I wonder whether they will build there again next

KATYDID.

Up in spreading lnaple-tree,
Merrily playing sat fddlers three.
Each had a bow, and each a string,
And oh, they made that maple ring!
With one note this way, one note that,
And each note just trife fiat;
Playing over the happy tune
They learned in honor of the moon,
And never one mistake they made
In all that moonlight serenade.
For three notes on single string,
Makes fddling quite a pleasant thing,
And jolly fiddlers never tire
Who play for love and not for hire,
Up in leafy maple hid,
The good old tune Of Katydid!

Would get more Christmas gifts:
So Bob, all laughter, got his Mas,
And Bess, a-smiling, got her Pa g,
And hung high up the shifts.
Oh, it was worth dollar
To see the two next day
For Bob 8 were full of girl-y toys,
And Bessie's full Of things for boys,
AS was the likely way!
I'VE ought to We been more knowing
Said Bob at last to Bess:

And I, Of course, have hung Papa IS
