THE STORY OF PUFF.

Dear Little Men and Little Women:
Mother Tabitha had two fine kittens, which
she was anxious to bring up in just the
right way. Like all mothers she was just
a little DIT proud of her children. Puff was
a snow white kitten, and Fluff was white,
with a black tip to her tail and a black
spot on one ear. Puff was very pretty
little kitten, but she had faults. Her great
est one was that she was very curious.
Mother Tabitha tried very hard 10 cure her
of this fault, but with no success Mother
Tabitha taught her kittens TO catch mice
among other things, and they became quite
expert in that art. 1T isn't every cat that
can catch mice so quickly and cunningly,"
said the proud mother eat.
One day while Puff was I'm the attic
hunting for mice she saw in the corner
queer looking thing. She wondered what
il washer mother had never told her
about any such queer thing 1t wasn't
alive She would peep at it. Puff crept up
TO 1t. She thought she would go inside it.
1t looked like a little house. Puff stepped
up TO It, There was a sharp click She
turned away frightened, but 1t was too
late. Her beautiful tail was caught. She
cried 50 loud that the housemaid and
Mother Tabitha came TO see what was the
matter Puff was soon free, and her
mother told her she Had been in a rat trap.
II is needless TO say that Pun never
meddled with what did not concern her
again. MARGARET II. PARK tagged ID

county, New York. The farmhouse had a
large kitchen with bare beams, from which
parsley, catnip and other herbs hung In
one side was large fireplace made of
brick, over which a long crane hung.
There was large brick oven, where bread,
pie and griddle cakes were baked. The
family ate in the kitchen. the parlor being
used only on Sunday and other special oc-
casions. The boys slept in what they called
the loft"

Tories and Indians were coming to make
raid that section. AS soon the
people heard this they began to go to the
stockado at Scotia. which was about seven
miles away and protected by a garrison.
The children and my grandmother were
terribly frightened. They had nothing but
zone old blind horse and there was no
straw from an old tick and threw the tick
over the old horses back. She then put
Johnny in one end and Ben IN the other
end. She got on the horse and lifted JIM

Dear Little Men and Little Women: am

so pleasant and jolly you'd love him the
first time you saw him. He has a deep.
deep voice and | always felt as If every
thing he said was coming right from the
bottom OF his heart. And this is the
odd thing. Although he is so Dig and
has such a deep voice, there isn't an
animal on the farm. large or small. that's
afraid OF him. When the horses In the
barn hear him coming they neigh and
stamp and prick up their ears till he comes
to pet them, and then they rub their heads
along his arms and poke their heads over
his shoulder.
One day he wa showing me one Of his
big trees, when we came across "A little,
little bird that ] suppose had tried 20 lily,
hurt its wings and fallen. He stopped TO
pick il mp, and | trembled lest his great,
strong fingers should crush the tiny thing.

such strength and gentleness could go to-
gether. He tried to nurse the bird back to

For instance. there are my friends. the
Smiths. They are young married people
with two small children. living on the out
