ton. An old man drowsed in the
carpet-seated rocking chair, snoring
with exasperating flnality. Hong, the
Chinese cook, was scrubbing the din
ing room floor, and his weird singing
foated out through the window from
which fowered curtains Huttered
gaily. But neither peace nor industry
was welcome to Pee Wee, 80 she
turned from their vicinity and ram
bIed around toward the dust barrel
where she was accustomed to find
dead mice that Hong shook out from
mouse traps.
To understand her reasons for this
ghoulish prediction one must take
her age into consideration She was
just old enough to be feeling the birth
pangs Of personality and too young to
resent them. Burying something was
beginning to be an emotional indul-
gence already. Having as yet no past
sins nor dead affections to bury, she
found satisfaction in objective funer-
ais where the role of corpse was play
ed by anything ranging from a stick
of kindling to gold fish. At present
dead mice were in favor, and just be-
yond the barbed wire fence she hGd
an artistic graveyard, the extension oe
which was one Of her dear desires.
So Pee Wee rummaged through the
dust barrel. There were three mice
in it's depths, but one was too tiny
and the other rather untidy looking.
Finally she decided on the third. a
plump, brown fellow who deserved q
respectable funeral and promised to
make a good.slzed grave. She knew
where poison berries grew, and with
their luscious redness for decoration
she would have a masterpiece of Q
funeral.
Yet stay, what fun was a funega
without participants? The only Other
small girl in the establishment haC
left yesterday. There would be nj
one but her self to enjoy the artistic
mournfulness of 1t all. That would bt
a waste Of talent But the mouse
would not keep until tomorrow, an<
perhaps she might never again find
one SO satisfactorily deceased. AS
suredly some mortuary accomplic'
must be found at once.
Perhaps some one was upon tn,
hill. 0ptimistically she wadet
through the foxtails, holding he
mouse firmly by its tail. Her skirt
belIooned with the wind, and sh
breathed deep. After all, how goo
1t was to walk in short dresses. Whel
