A Night Cap Story for

Things went all right with Jerry and Boco and when they awoke a catbird was moving in a nearby shrub and a gay cardinal bird was futtering through the close foliage little way off. The schums awoke refreshed, and Boco had to chide Jerry because his eyes would glare, his fur rise and his jaws snap together when he saw such good things to eat. so near and yet. so far. Boco told him he had been out in the world alone long enough to know that it was silly to get excited over little things,-that they would get food by and by. Boco was polite, for he left it to Jerry whetaser he wanted fish or wanted flesh to eat. tfss
 Jerry thought he preferred meat; so BocO told him they would catch "a wuzzy-Yuzzys for a meal, and he wondered what that was: but he fol-. lowed Boco out into the pasture and. was given post to, watch at near the, door of old Mir. and Mrs. Woodchuck

He found them busy; but they scarnpered honeward when they saw him, for they knew he was not ! friend. and Boco set chase. Every thing went well until the family near ed home, when they. saw Jerry at their door to stop them. Mrs. WoodchuclS went with two little ones toward a friendly wall while MT. Woodchuck with his fattest boy made a dash across the field for cover, and Boco chased the two; and at q given signal Jerry joined in the chase after them. Boco knew they were on their way to their back door, another hole in the ground which they had somewhere,

He was too big and too savage for Jerry, and just as Boco was going to lend a hand Mir. Woodchuck with his rolly- polly, wobbly gait made his hole in the ground and Jerry stood surprised when Boc0 called to him, saying the wsIzzy- fuzzy was enough for both, so they took the fat youngster and went to. a quiet place to feast upon him, where they would be uldisturbed- Boco had lost his habit of growing while he was eating hunted game; but Jerry grOwl- ed as if without him there would havo been no "wuzzy- fuzzy" and no feast; and this was so dangerous to their well-beiHg that Boco scolded him and soon taught him to feast like sensf- ble cat.

Civic Consciousness.

A New York lecturer in a recent ad- dress undertook to demonstrate that some of the practices of immigrants in this country, which are troublesome to the authorities. lave their origin in the best intentions and may be easily corrected when the requirements of American environment are made clear to the new arrivals ss
 To illustrate his point 1e told an in tefesting story. A certain immigrant mother of numerous offspring was seven times haled to court and fined for hurling her ashes into the city street on which she lived. With philo- sophie submission to arbitrary gov ernmental tyranny she paid her fines and went her way. Finally, a charitS- .ble person expla ined to her, in her own tongue. why she should not throw her ashes into the street. It then appear cd that in the little Polish village whence she came she and her neigh bo-s had been requested by a local au- thority to throw their ashes into the road by way of ilnpromptu street build ing.
 Then lac related contrasting anec- dote, as follows:
