THE FAINT-HEARTED MOUSE.
BY MENDEL sILBERMAN, AGED IL.

A TIMID little mous once made
~ his home in the house of a great
magician. The poor faint
hearted little creature was in constant
fear of the big cat who used to wander
around at night and he hardly dared
to venture forth for his food. In fact
h, had not a moments peace.
The magician, taking pity on the
timid creature, changed it into a cat,
and the mouse thor thought It's trou-
bles were over. But one day it met a
large dog and the same fear returned
two-fold. To cure this the magician
changed it into a dog. But this did not
do any good, for it Immediately began
to tremble for fear of a fierce tiger in
the n"eighborhood. Then the magician
changed it once agar. this time into a
tiger. but it at once began to. tremble
for fear of the hunters.
Then the magician became angry.
BE a mouse again." he cried in dis
gust, you have the heart of a mouse
and it cannot be changed, even though
you put on the body Of a nobler ami
NAL"
So the mouse returned to its original
form and continued o tremble at sight
Of the cat.

And L thought if you would conde-

He spoke the commonplace words
half absently, yet so palpably for his
own sake, not for hers, that their sim

elaborate and accentuated sentence
could have done. She looked up at his
handsome face with her great candid

And so, after a little more pressing.

all his relations spoilt him most, and
whom he could in fact twist round his
thumb-an aunt, Lady Follitt by name,
