MY PUSHES

Are you little children all fond
|of pussies? II you are. I think
you would like to hear about mine.
How many do you thing l have?
Two? Five? Ten? Oh my, no!
i have thousands - thousands OF
dear little soft gray pussies.
Maybe you think that is too
many, but it isn't Perhaps you
are wondering where I get enough
soft. warm beds for them, or milk
for them to drink, or saucers to
|put it in; or where I could get
enough catnip to- give them all a
dose If they were sick.
Maybe you think there would be
too much quarreling when a hun
bred pussies wanted to play with

the same spool at the same time.
Perhaps you are afraid it would
make you dizzy to see so many
pussies chasin their tails; or deaf
to hear them all meowing. And
what jingling and jangling there
would be If they all wore bells,
and thing of the yards and yards
of ribbon it would take to tie them
lon!
But, really, my pussies are no
trouble at all. They don't meow.
They don't make the least little
Ibit of noise. They need no beds
nor no milk. They are never sick
and never quarrel or chase their
tails. My pussies are just the
pretty, soft little pussy Willows
THAT grow out on the lawn.
