OF the hole and ran In all directions.
Seager managed to land the Young boy
and the latter revealed the secret.
The youngsters had dug a tunnel
which entered a large room where the
Youthful gang met and read blood and
thunder stories. There was a tunnel
from the billboard which led to the

would dive under the billboard and
disappear. They had also made pit

to prowl, so out he sailed from his cave.
The taste for owl had put on his appetite
keen edge for more With long. easy
trot he started across the moor toward a
lonely crag 1t was long way When
the crag came in sight the fox stopped to
listen. There was a deep howl, another
and another yet. When the fox crouched
low in the grass the howls came nearer.
Then he cautiously poked up his head and
learned the truth. Wolves had seen him
and he knew it would be run for his life.
As long as ii takes the lightning to flash
its light from one side of the sky to the
other. so long did 1t take the red fox to turn
tail and start back the way he had come.
The bowling pack was much too close for
comfort Each howl appeared to bring them
closer. Then the fox forgot his dreams
of owls, he forgot even his cunning, and
thought only of the narrow crevice which
led to his home under the ledge. 1t seemed
he was gaining; the bowls were farther Off.
He Stacked his pace, looked over his shoul-
der and saw with relief that all but one
had given up the chase. Even that one
had lost ground The race was over. No!
there was the howl closer than ever. The
fox tried to renew his gait, but the weary
muscles would not respond The hot breath
of the fierce wolf was fairly upon him.
One more howl, set of savage teeth, a
rough shaking and the sly red fox was
no more.
The sky was now fairly black. But the
victorious wolf, unafraid, sat down to en-
| joy his meal alone on the dark moor. When
the feast was ended, the storm was raging
| high, but the victorious wild wolf cared not.
! Near by was a languid, meandering stream,
and thither he turned to satisfy his thirst
| before going home.
| Now the banks of the stream were fringed
with reeds and rushes. Through these the
wolf pushed his way, half seeing, half feel
ing, and soon his nose was dipped into the
cool water for which his long chase and his
meal had made him so eager He was
thinking of his weakened fellow wolves
| who had fallen behind in the race. With
pride he would go back to them. Just then
there as a quick swish through the air:
the wolf knew that there were long, keen
claws in his sides Then came the sting
of sharp teeth in his head, and the fierce
wild wolf was no more
A mig, tawny lion had been hiding in the
reeds. as tawny lions do, hoping some
thirsty animal would come that way, and
he had not been disappointed.
When the lion had finished his meal, the
storm was over, the clouds were all gone,
the full moon shone calmly down, and once
more everything was at peace. And this,
my own dearest wee ones. Is the end of
the story, because, as you very we'll know,
the lion is the king of beasts.

and laughed until they cried: Their laugh
ter, however, came to a sudden stop, and
they eyed each other questioningly when
the door below opened and Jerrys voice
was heard calling, .Massa Diff, Massa Diff,
yo' uncle wants yo and the boys over In
his room"
1t was a subdued band of boys that went
up to the house and into Uncle Steves
study. Here all traces of the wooden box
and its uneasy contents had been removed.
Uncle Steve greeted them solemnly, but
Diff noticed a twinkle in his eyes as he
! said. Good afternoon, boys, sit down"
Good afternoon, sir" said they politely,
and sat down wherever they could conve-
niently, and with some agitation waited for
Uncle Steve to begin. Boys he said how
is your club getting on? I'm much inter-
ested in boys clubs and 1 think, judging
from one l was founder of when I was a
boy, it must be doing a great deal toward
preparing you to be honorable and respect
able citizens I have been thinking that
I would like to make you some substantial
gift. Halter is club treasurer, understand,
SO I will place the gift in his charge" And
Uncle Steve thereupon drew from his vest
pocket crisp new dve-dollar bill and
handed 1t to that worthy.
The boys fer a moment were too sur
prised to speak and looked abashed at one
another
Then Diff said, Thank you, Nunkey,"
and the others said, Thank you. SIR
And I thought" he went on. heaping
more Goals of fire upon their heads, IF
you boys thought well to spend 1t on trip

The boys could only murmur, Thank
YOU SIR though their eyes danced.
"And now I must bid you good after
noon for 1 have been disturbed in my
work and must try to make up for some
lost time."-----~e-s
Good afternoon" SIR" and the boys filed
solemnly down the stairs. When they
reached the bottom they gathered in a
group. -

THE BUGS OF BUGLY.
BY ]. E. CROwELL.
(In Six Parts: Part VII


The circus was fairly under way, the
Grand Grasshopper Gallop was over, and
the tumble bugs now filed the seven rings
of the arena. Some stood on their heads
and kicked their legs; some stood on one
leg and whirled like top; some turned
handsprings, and some, the clown bugs, did
act so silly!
There was a clown who kept falling on
his back and kicking his feet in the air,
playing he could not turn over and get upon
his feet again.
Buster Bug and Buntie Bug and Binty
Bug blaughed and blaughed, to see his
antics! Then the band played very loud
and the Bug Bear was led in. This was a
fearful creature to look upon all the lady
bugs squealed and looked very scared!
Mrs Azubah Bug squealed twice, and look
ed the most scared.
All the little boy bugs sat up straight and
never looked frightened a bit.
First, the Bug Bear climbed a stair,
And sat in a chair,
Then jumped in the air.
And landed-anywhere!
The keeper took good care
Not to let him dare
To begin to rare and tear"
For fear he might get out of his lair
And make havoc, here and there
Meanwhile, little Boo, sitting in the ave-
nue., had brown quite we'll acquainted with
the Bug-a-Boo.
"Why don't you mover" said little Boo.
Il don't care to-" said the Bug a-Boo.
Its altogether too much trouble
But l wish to go by" said Boo.
Couldn't you climb over?' said Bug
a-Boo.
with your permission will" said Boo.
So little Boo started, and as he climbed
he had an idea. When he reached the head
of the Bug-a-Boo, he tickled his ear.
Mr.. Bug-a-Boo jumped right up and ex-
claimed ION, dear!' Little Boo held on
tight and began to steer, by tickling first
one and then the other Bug-a-Boo ear!
Right into the circus they went, and round
and round the ring.
And all the people on the seats
Began to shout and sing,
And all the circus mem came out
And didn't do thing!
For while Little Boo showed off the
Bug-a- Boo. Then he drove him to his cage
and returned to receive the plaudits of the
Buggy multitude.
Mr.. Begun, the manager, rewarded little
Boo when he had told his story by begin
ming the circus all over again so he would
not miss any Of 1t.
But before the first act began, before even
the first note Of the band had sounded or
even the leader had waved his hand, some
thing happened.
Right in the very center of all the rings,
little round hole appeared, and two little
bugs popped out! 1t was Benny Bug and
Billy Bug. and they had dug from the Film
Flam tree!
We must leave the little bugs now at their
play.
Should you wish to know any more.
You might take a walk on some fine sum-
mer day,
Out into the fields, near the shore.
If you look about a bit and are very
quiet at it, you may find Buggy in the
grass, quite close to you. You may see
Billy Bug and Benny Bug, and even little
Boo, But I hope you never will meet that
stupid Bug-a-Boo!

Help for the Children.

Children often spend a great deal of useless
labor In constructing tent in the nursery,
and sometimes, when 1t is complete, or even
near completion. it falls on it's little occu-
pants. who have their task to do over
again. Mothers might secure for them
selves a quiet hour if they would assist
the little people In their plans. and with
to play" This is the way one mother
does: A rope or stout cord is tied across
the nursery, the ends being attached to
tent. If one sheet is not found to be suf-
ficiently large, then two are pinned to-
gether with safety pins. A few books or
any small articles of weight placed on
the ends of the sheet at either side will
keep the tent apart at the bottom, and If
the children wish to inclose the interior
altogether an old curtain can be pinned
across the open end.

And they could do the Matching, the feeding and

THE TWO COUSINS.

Sweet April sat on a black.fringed cloud,
A cloud with silver lining,
And into her hair of purest gold
Was a rainbow deftly twfning.
II wish" she said, with wrinkled brow,
THAT Cousin March would hurry;
Here I must wait till he gets through,
He ought to know I'd worry.
1--WE work to do with Mother Earth,
I'm wild to be about 1t.
You think / don't know how to toll?
oh, dear, how can you doubt itP
Sweet April shed a few real tears,
Which fell on March retiring,
And then she smiled and shook her head,
Her rainbow much admirfng.
II wouldn't be a clustering boy"
She said as March drew nearer.
I'm going TO laugh whole month long;
a month VIII ne'er be clearer"
As cousins met and clasped their hands
Before their ways they parted,
March slyly tweaked sweet ApriPs ear,
food of tears he started.
"Oh, ho!' jeered March as April sobbed,
DO you call this fine weather.
Your month Is here. and first you cry
thought your tears in tether!'
Sweet April flung 4 flashing glance
AT March across her shoulder.
I'm only foOling, boy she laughed,
