A STORY FOR CHILDREN.
Brooklyn Eogle)
Il DON'T CARR"

Betty had q number of faults. One was dis
obedience, another seltishness, but the very
worst one of all was using too often her
fayorite expression, II don't care"
Now, Betty'5 parents were able to give
her anything She asked for, and when She
expressed q wish to have rabbit she prompt
" received one. At first tins little "bull Of
fur gave her much pleasure, and she spent
most Of her time foudling and feeding it.
But soon she grew tired Of this and began
thinking Of something else to ask for. How
nice it would be to have the book of GARY
Tales Yes, if She had that she would wish
for nothing else.
One evening, when She bud just reached a
thrilling part in the story, her mother step
ped into the room, her face somewhat sad
Betty looked up with q frown even mother
was intrudiuP.
DEITY, said mother, with q smile, you
seem so interested in your book that l am
afraid Bunny has been neglected When
did you feed him last p
Betty looked cross, and pouted, Il don't
remember and | don't care" she said, III q
sullen tone. Mother gently pointed ont to
her what she termed her ''weRk spots
wLereupon Betty cried and said it was boys
work to attend to rabbits and that brother
John should be made to do it. Nevertheless,
next morning a little girl was seen to put
aside her book and run down to feed and
cal ess a little gray rabbit. This did not last
long, however, and a few minutes later Betty
was sitting in the window reading.
Brother John came III and seeing Betty he
stopped to say, BETTY, the gate of the rob-
bits run is open and Mistress Bunny is en-
Toying our front lawn"
con, 1 don't care, answered Betty, ard
she went on reading. In a few minutes she
dropped her book with fright. TIL next
door cat had the dear little rabbit i'll his
mouth and was tearing it TO pieces How
sorry Betty was, and she did her best to re-
lease her pet, but the cat was ahead Of her,
The rabbit lay lifeless.
That night as Betty lay sobbing on her
pillow, with her mother trying to comfort
her, she repeated again and again that she
wished she had paid attention to what bro
Their John had said.
And" she sobbed. II will never say 1
lon care again, for this has taught mea
lesson worth learning"

Let US hope that she conquered her other
faults With less sorrow.
